That's not a map. That's a file. Did you even compile the map before you posted it here?

Is it possible to open this vmx file?

Okay, I got Hammer to load the file. Here is my response: Argh. This is awful. Yuck. I'm stiil gonna compile it, and see if it's as bad as it looks in Hammer.

I try to open it with hammer, but i can't select the vmx file, i just can select vmf and another type ( which is not vmx).

To open the .vmx, plop it where you would put your .vmfs, and open it in Hammer. You have to select "All Files"

Press 'F9', or go to compile through the menus at the top. Click on 'expert', and select full compile (both and slow).

If you need any help, read my map uploading guide.

It helps with the download of your map, as it stops players having to compile the map themselves.

I have looked at the video, as well as played the map, here is my view...

Very short map, requiring a simple set of tasks. Really easy to know where to place portals and where to go, as there is only two real portable surfaces in the map. The laser catcher is not aligned to the wall, meaning it sticks out.

The map could also do with some indicator lights, as well as maybe some more lighting other than one light in the middle and some generic wall lights.

Maybe if you have a look at Rubrica's amazing guide on detailing levels and more, it could push your level to a greater level.

Young Padawan, you have much to learn.

Stray to the Dark Side you must not.

This is the fourth map this guy has uploaded in the wrong format. Does he not see us or is he just continuously ignoring everyone?

I am on the verge of strangling beecake.

Files are now fixed, i just told him on youtube. He said he fixed them all.

Average short map in Clean, dealing in white gel. Puzzles are simple, not ill conceived but inevitably loose due to the paint.

Visuals globally ok, if not for a couple lackluster details: big unaligned fizzler, no cubemaps, that slope made of brush inexplicably aside of a perfect one built from a panel.

Young Padawan has learned and is now using rar. files

I'm playing custom maps and record my first time of playing them. So the run is not perfect and may not use only intended ways, but maybe it can let you see how other people may understand the map or you could just enjoy someone playing this map for entertainment.
Anyways, here is the recording:

Also note the video description for more feedback and my signature for additional project information.

I have to admit, beecake, you're persistent. You just keep throwing these maps together and putting them out there. Take your time, and focus on quality and details, and get some playtesters. You are clearly quite creative, but keep falling short on the little things. You don't need the blue gel at all in this one (which is fine with me, I hate the stuff). 3/5 from me.

Okay just played, and to help you be a better mapper here are the problems I had with it, among others that I don't feel like mentioning.
first off, I only used conversion gel, and it was easy to not sue the others.. I actually done know how you wanted me to use the others
