Portal 2 Portal Device Sound Mod
Okay so first off if you downloaded this exact thing off of a place called "Thinkingwithportals.com" by a user under the name of "Wilbo" then he stole this from me! I did not take this from him! I spent quite a bit of time on this so as it says below....DO NOT REUPLOAD WITHOUT PERMISSION! My sounds have distinct difference from any other sounds because of the editing program I use. So don't be a Wilbo and respect the fact I want to keep my work as mine. I will be uploading it to myApertureLabs.com AND Thinkingwithportals.com to avoid any more stealing from happening. Thank you and please enjoy the sound mod. Now to what's inside the sound mod Blue Portal Firing sound Orange Portal Firing sound Portal Opening sounds Going through a Portal sounds Exiting a Portal sounds Original post: http://www.fpsbanana.com/sounds/12530 I will release a final version once valve releases Portal 2 (yes you have to wait a a few months for a perfect sound mod) As I always say: DO NOT REPLOAD WITHOUT PERMISSION! Credit goes to: Valve For the Original sounds and games RubyCarbuncIe For editing the original sounds from the trailer.

The Fall
Submission for Oct '07 contest. This map has 3 relatively easy puzzles, including a box/sphere puzzle, a ball catcher puzzle, and a flinging puzzle.
Falling
I'm looking for constructive criticism rather than praise for this map. It's My first portal map, as you can probably tell. There are pretty obvious texture mishaps that I could not for the life of me figure out how to fix. Not even sure how I got those Portal 2 textures, but they were there and I thought it'd be a refreshing change from the original Portal's textures that I'd seen. The map itself is extremely easy and pretty short. It doesn't use any new puzzle solving techniques and I just borrowed ideas from the main game as well as other maps. The Portal 2 theme that play near the end of the map is a rip from the trailer courtesy of Cobaiy and of course Valve for the music itself. Tell me what you like and dislike. EDIT: I used pakrat to manually insert all the textures that I used. Along with some models and a >WAV that I made of the portal 2 theme that should play near the end. If anything is still messed up, please let me know and be specific so I can find the missing texture or model more easily.

This is my entry in the October mapping contest, it's pretty small but was only meant to be one test chamber. I hope you enjoy yourselves playing this map. (also hope that the bms worked, first time mapping or working on portal)

This map was supposed to be the first map in a mappack I've never managed to work on. The puzzle emphasizes different usage of blue portals. It is very easy and short but level difficulty is similar to original Portal.
contest0408_thehermit2_rmaze1
two part maze that configures randomly This is my entry for the TWP April '08 mapping contest "innovation challenge." This is a 2-part maze where the configuration of each part is randomly selected in-game from two pools of presets. The first half is a traditional hedge-style maze that the player must navigate to obtain the portal gun. There are 14 different versions, which make up every major configuration that allows the player to access all areas of the hedge maze. They are all fairly easy. The second half uses portals to navigate between fence-enclosed chambers. There are 16 versions available, which make up only a small fraction of the possible configurations. For aesthetic reasons, they are fairly short; each should require the player to pass through a portal nine times. Of course if you get lost, you may have to use a few more than that. To help the player orient, number signs have been added to the four center chambers, and the exit has signs around it. I would rate them all as medium difficulty. At the end of the level, the map automatically restarts, leaving the player without the portal gun (for continuity sticklers, the player is rendered unconscious, and the gun is taken away.) Hopefully this will prompt players to play the map a couple of times and get the full benefit of randomization. There is no ending; it just keeps restarting until the player chooses to quit. And finally, just for fun, I set the music to pick randomly from eight of the calmer pieces from the original Portal.
