Portal 2
The Skinner Box
This is something a little bit different, aimed more at fun than difficulty. I hope you'll enjoy it. Version 1.1 uploaded. Includes some wall decoration and tweaks to make things more intuitive. Version 1.2 - aesthetic fixes. Version 1.3 - Converter tubes no longer work from below. Can now only have one reflective cube and one turret at a time.
Portal Gun Pedestal Instance
This is a instance I made of the Pedestal which the Portal gun sits on. Please note that this is not just a couple of props but a fully working dynamic prop with animations for putting the gun down and back up from inside the ground. I put a couple of values in so that you can edit it to your liking (for example make the portal gun up at spawn or disable the prop going down after you pick the gun up). - This includes an I/O proxy to help you pick the right outputs - This can be set to look broken (Sparks and has no Portal Gun) - This can be lifted from or closed into the ground using an output - This can be changed to look like a blue or orange coop portal gun - This can spawn a one portal (or no portal), portal_gun Replace Values: $DisableClose Boolean -> Set this to disable the gun going down after you pick up the gun$DisableClose Boolean -> Set this to disable the gun going down after you pick up the gun$StartingTeam Integer -> Used for telling which team the gun starts for (0 is for SinglePlayer, 2 is for Blue, 3 is for Orange)$StartUp Boolean -> Set this if you want the Pedestal to spawn up at start of map$HandleSpeed Float -> Sets how fast (or slow) the handles of the pedestal will open or close$DoesntSpark Boolean -> Set this if the pedestal doesn't spark$HasPortalGun Boolean -> Set this if there is a Portal Gun on the pedestal$Skin Integer -> Changes what color the portal gun is (0 is Normal, 1 is Blue, 2 is Orange)$CanFirePortal1 Boolean -> Set this if the portalgun can fire Blue Portals$CanFirePortal2 Boolean -> Set this if the portalgun can fire Orange Portals Since I found out that not every mapper knows names of simple value types I put an explanation: 'Boolean' indicates a value that can only have a 1 or 0 option. 'Set this' indicates putting a '1' as the value. Integer indicates a value that can have a number as its' option. Float indicates a value that can have a decimal place. e.g. '0.5' Please read above what values to set before complaining that there is no portal gun spawning!!! Feel free to use in your map!
Lost In Transition
Atlas and P-Body get lost in the transition between test chambers and they must find their way back to Glados and her test chamber. This is the third map that I have ever created and I thought that I would go all out on this one. There are three rooms in this map, and I have uploaded each room as its own file to reduce lag and allow players to stop after each room and continue later on if they wish. I would rate these puzzles as hard to solve and if you and your partner are looking for a challenge then this is the map for you, and you should expect to spend a while in this map. Play instructions: Unzip the maps from the archive and place all three in your Steam/steamapps/common/portal 2/portal2/maps folder. Both players have to download the maps. Start a normal co-op game and whoever is hosting (the Blue Robot) type in "changelevel mp_coop_lostintransition" in the console (which is activated by the ` key under ESC. The rooms should end and load automatically, but if they don't or if you would like to start at a different room then enter in the name of the room you would like to start at. I would like to thank those who tested my map for their help: RockeTek, SofaEater, Roksonixx, and Karmatoe. Please Give Feedback on what you thought of my map. v1.1 - Fixed minor bugs, fixed unintended way to solve last room, and changed second rooms looks a bit. v1.2 - Made it so that you no longer have to backtrack for the cube in the third room. v1.3 - I added 1 more second of time before panels go down, and I have added a sound to beep .8sec before the panel goes down. v1.4 - Fixed Minor things in first room. On Third room I made it so you can't fall behind panels, and made them a little wider. v1.5 - Added some placement helpers, and added some effects and looks. P.S. I like watching the videos of my maps.

CompanionCubeTeleporter
Proof of my idea that a Gravity Room can be made. I made a room, copied and rotated it. Then placed several prop_portal and made the Cube(s) activate the portals. There are Two Treats. One: There is a Cube placed where a Portal Opens; First time a Cube is picked up it comes flying in, so watch out. Two: I placed the first Cube to make the player fall into the portal automatically. Then, when testing, I had to make some more cubes. I hope this spawns some interesting maps. In the vmf, file you can see I used 6 portals, in 3 pairs. I covered all the Portal-able areas with prop_portal and activate and deactivate all of them. This eliminates the players own portals, and other imaginary issues (including the prop_portal Active issue). (This release, is to encurage Gravity Room Development)
Enrichment Sphere, 1952
A blue and orange gel map with two sections. Screenshot coming soon. The second in a series of eight maps. Each one packed with detail, minimum 100 hours in Hammer.
[SP] Basement Chambers
A broken elevator shaft leads to a series of chambers that are designed to test the subjuct's motor skills as well as his puzzle-solving skills. Each floor is devoted to showcasing specific testing elements that must be used in conjuction with quick movements and precise aiming in order to succeed. This is my attempt at making puzzles that require more dynamic, time-sensitive actions from the player (e.g., shooting portals while launched through the air), rather than puzzles that provide only mental obstacles. First Floor: Introductory Courses, Hard Light Bridges Updates: v1.1 - minor changes to portal surfaces in floor_1_a v1.0 - minor layout changes to floor_1_a and floor_1_b, first chamber in floor_1_c has been redesigned v0.9 - initial release Screenshots: http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/59581 ... 919D3E36E/ http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/59581 ... 6AB4135FB/ http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/59581 ... 2D916ED03/

the_surprise_test_chamber
I have been working on this map in my free time since school ended. It features Discouragement Lasers an incinerator and and excursion funnel. Please tell me if anything needs to be fixed or added, Thanks!
sp_split_bean
My first real map after five days of working with hammer. I'm sure there are plenty of problems, mostly with textures, but the logic works fine I think. It is only one chamber with a moderately annoying/difficult puzzle. Thanks for all the advice from everyone who played it. I fixed the chamber so that it is no longer incredibly easy. I did not update any of the textures or lighting further because I'm not planning on really finishing this one. I just wanted it playable. Please play it again if you already did before I updated!
[Coop] Freefall
A short, cooperative Wheatley themed puzzle that is the first half of two-map map pack I'm working on. The map includes excursion funnels, fizzlers, turrets, lasers and bottomless pits. 7/13/2011 Update: Bug Fixes for v.1.2 -Fixed an exploit with the faith plate -Modified the first puzzle to give more incentive towards intended solution -Added decals to emphasis the reverser button Screenshots: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/71 ... 00002.jpg/ http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/51 ... 00003.jpg/ http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/94 ... 00004.jpg/ http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/84 ... 00005.jpg/
