Crushers Instance
For all the crusher lovers, here is an instance including two lovely crushers colliding together. You can control them and set the times between opened and closed positions. UPDATE 1: updated with func_instance_io_proxy for easier I/O. Replacable variables: $time_to_open <float> [default: 1.5] The amount of time that the crushers spend closed. $time_to_close <float> [default: 4] The amount of time that the crushers spend opened. If you see ??? in your func_istances properties, don't worry, these values do work as default. If the stop_crusher is triggered and the crushers are still moving, triggering the start_crusher won't do anything. You have to wait for the crushers to stop. This is my first instance, please report any bugs you find!
Gel Flow Particle Systems
This is a map with a couple of example Gel-Flow Particle Systems. This is how Valve made Gel look like it is flowing through pipes (and curving in them). You can just copy and paste these into your maps, however keep the angles of the info_particle_system's the same to the info_target as this is how it tells which way to curve the Gel. I would suggest you to ignore the different "Control Points" as decompiling a Valve map shows that they only used 1 info_target for 1 particle control system. Searching through the Portal files I couldn't find the name of a water one but I am pretty sure that there is one. If you do find out the name of the particle system, then post a comment below and I will edit this thread.
Chamber Sign Maker
Microsoft .NET Framework 2 required It was used to create the signs for Retrospective so you can play that if you want an example of them in-game.

sp_hard_one
My first singleplayer map for Portal2 (I've mapped CSS before). The lower room is alredy complete. I will complete the upper one. Can you solve this puzzle? I think it's pretty hard. How long did it take until you did it? It's possible without using glitches. Or did you solve it in a other way than I? Walkthrough v0.85b: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhL-CtWlmmM
Revelations: Segment Nine
Segment 9 is full of secrets. Can you handle them all? This is my first creation in Hammer and in Valve SDK in general, so I hope you'll enjoy it.
Zhan's Hard Light Bridge chambers
A Portal 2 work in progress single player test chamber focusing on hard light bridges and the different ways they can be used. I currently have four test chambers done, and my current plan is to make sure these four are fun and play well, and then detail them and clean them up for submission to the Summer Mapping Initiative contest. Enjoy! A zip download is here, if you can't open .7z files: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18787920/portal ... _chmb1.zip
Explosive Cube
WIP for experimental puzzle element; The Explosive Cube. The level included is a simple "tutorial" map, Intended to educate people as to how it works; Basically the cube explodes after a certain amount of time. In this map, It explodes after 15 seconds. The idea with this stemmed from the few "timed" puzzles in coop, In that i felt the idea wasn't really explored enough. The idea of an explosive cube gives rise to a lot of interesting possiblities in coop for puzzles. Haven't really started work on the other explosive box related puzzles yet, I wanted a bit of feedback first One or more textures on this map have been created with images from CGTextures.com. These images may not be redistributed by default. Please visit www.cgtextures.com for more information. UPDATE: In the case of those interested i am still working on this; Been busy with fairly important things recently, I am intending on doing about 4/5 maps using the cube, Possibly more but haven't really had time lately, Here's a quick screen of one of the maps WIP: Few screenshots:
