Dynamic Breaker-box
I saw a request on the forums for how to make a circuit breaker box with a lever, so here's a quick and dirty version. a logic_relay is pre-set to toggle on and off with USE on the lever. Red and Green sprites included (for on and off signalling)
Light Beam Platform (from Portal 1)
Just because Portal 2 is a newer game there is no reason to waste old testing elements. A good example besides the Energy Balls (Working Energy Balls + Clean models + Instances) are the Light Beam Platforms. They can be used everywhere because they don't need any fixed points with walls like Portal 2's moving platforms. In this pack you have 5 instances: BeamPlatform_Beam: Here you have a preset env_beam where you have to set the start and endpoint of its beam. BeamPlatform_Corner: Thats the corner for a Light Beam Platform track. BeamPlatform_End: Thats the end platform for a Light Beam Platform track. BeamPlatform_Wall: This is a wall emitter for the Light Beam. For the first two instances the func_instance center is the point where you have to put your path_tracks to. The wall emitter needs to have the path_track on the same layer but of course a bit futher from the wall. BeamPlatform_Platform: Thats the platform itself with some settings. It's moving from MapSpawn on. Make sure to give all instances/parts that belong to the same Light Beam the same fixup name! For multiple platforms per track you have to use of course different ones. This just causes that the toggle won't work. In this pack there are also the missing models and textures for all the parts of the Light Beam Track. I recompiled the corner model and made it to a static prop. Please make sure to use the light_rail_endcap2.mdl and not the light_rail_endcap.mdl. I hexed that model because Valve made some texture tries on the original one in Portal 2's VPKs and it looks unfinished.

Underground giant door transition
My attempt at an underground transition seal, trying to re-create a4_end without copy-pasting. I was going to include it in my 'useful instances' - but it's too big and doesn't really fit into a category. Gaps have been left for you to plug doorways in to the North and South sides, as well as a gap for a descending elevator. Triggering the massive door to open is easy with just a few entities, but is beyond the scope of this text and will not be explained here. Check the forums!
Cube Inductance
This was an idea I had after seeing the "shake flashlight". This is a generator which uses the "infinite fall" technique with a cube or sphere to activate an object, i.e. open a door. The instance requires a fairly tall room as it is 512 high by 128 wide by 128 deep. Try it out and let me know what you think of it.
Holoemitter
This is a hologram emitter, requested by Soundlogic. The model has a footprint of 32x32. It has 4 skins, on and off in blue and orange (just illumination turned on or off). There are 2 models. The first model (holoemitter.mdl) got 3 animations: idle auf (open) zu (close) The second model (holoemitter_statisch.mdl) is a static prop. I recommend to use the static one, because of its small size the animations are just a small detail. If somebody needs a bigger version, I can rescale it. Texture resolutions in original are double sized. Because of the size of THIS model, they are downsized.

ML's Disc and Disc Player
So I made a Disc and Disc Player in one of my maps. And since I couldn't find anything here (like an instance file or anyone bothering to make one) I decided to stick it up here. Even though this is an instance, you should open this file to copy and paste everything into your map instead of loading this as an instance in your map. The reason being is that if you want to hide your disc (the disc that the player interacts with is near the two purple cube, DON'T TOUCH THE ONE INSIDE THE TRIGGER) you won't be able to hide it if it's part of an instance. The default result of inserting the disc into the player is a message indicating that it works. Be sure to test it first to make sure it works before doing anything else with it. To change whatever result you want, change the logic_relay's Target output to whatever you want to be triggered. Please let me know if you have trouble or need help since this is the first time I have uploaded an instance. Edit: After some more testing, I realize that rotating the grouped objects (disk player, triggers, func_doors etc.) messes with the way the disk gets put in. So don't rotate the grouped objects either. I know that sounds like an inconvenience, but if your really insistent on rotating the device instead of rearranging the area you want the disk player to be located, then un-group the objects, change the "open" direction of the func_door. It's the purple "invisible" brush that touches the disc inside the trigger and goes into the disc player. Please comment if you have any questions or need better instructions.
