Portal 2
Petrified
This is a test concept I wanted to try. I may make more with this testing element ; I am not sure. The testing element is a cube that freezes when you drop it, and drops when you hit it. It's relatively easy to make: it's a prop_physics with a cube world model. When it is dropped, it puts itself to Sleep, and when it is picked up, it Wakes. The skin changes to demonstrate this. To play, unzip the file and drag the .bsp into your maps folder ( steam/steamapps/common/portal 2/sdk_content/maps )
Rebound
Small two-room puzzle, though I may expand on it in the future. Puzzles are mostly of the cerebral kind, with only a tiny amount of fast portalwork required. Shouldn't be too challenging for experienced players; my first map so didn't want to make it too complex! Can be completed in around 3 minutes if the player knows what to do. Hope you enjoy it! v1.1 - Thanks to John11 for pointing out numerous flaws. Major changes in this version: - Floor in initial room no longer accepts portals (except for under the gel dropper) - Cubes no longer automatically respawn after getting fizzled - New route to fizzler shutdown button - Laser grid added on wall opposite lightbridge - a couple of portal surfaces added/moved to rework puzzles and accommodate changes
Tower of Hanoi Demo
This is a very small map that I have been working on that is a portal adaptation of the Tower of Hanoi puzzle. (Google it, or better yet http://www.mazeworks.com/hanoi/) It is going to be a room in a larger map and everything is essentially in running order (I hope). There isn't an entrance elevator, or an exit, the goal is just to get all the check marks on the exit wall lit up. Basically I used three different style cubes to represent three different size discs, and instead of pegs holding discs I have cases holding cubes. That, and it's upside down...Hard to explain, easy to see. What I really need help with is making this more user friendly for people who walk into this room and have never heard of the tower of Hanoi or what the rules of it are. For example: One rule is that you cant put a larger disc on top of a smaller disc. Simple, but how do I best illustrate this to portal players? (In the case of my level it would be "You cant put cube B below cube A in the glass case" because it is upside down) I put one of the basic rules of the game on the wall of the room, but I think it borderline kills the "portal feel" of the room, and I don't think I should really write out all the rules of the game. So if I could get some feedback on what would make it easier to figure this particular puzzle out, it would be much appreciated.
PTI element: Vertical doors, Portal1-style doors
I edited Ben's popular door element, and added two more door options into it: The vertical door, seen in the BTS scenes throughout the single player campaign, and the Portal 1 style door, which unfortunately lacks some color details. Click to zoom. (The Portal 1 wall texture was added in between of those doors to illustrate it fitting that style; it is not part of the door.) Download it here: http://bisqwit.iki.fi/kala/ptal2/doors.zip The two new door types are simply added as ButtonType selections into Ben's existing door. All the three different doors use the same icons in the editor...
Petrified
A smaal map with a custom testing element. I'm having trouble with the spawn point.
PTI element: Large (4x2x1 / 512x256x128) observation room
Seeing a screen shot here: http://theportalwiki.com/wiki/File:Port ... ent_02.jpg which has a different observation room from the one featured in the editor, it inspired me to clone the observation room and create a 4-block wide observation room. It is not identical to that screenshot, but it has similar principle: Ligher mood, things (having) happened. The ZIP file contains the observation room, a simplified observation room, and the snippet of text to insert in your editoritems.txt. The room instances will be put in sdk_content/maps/instances/p2editor/ .

First Map
This is a map with two puzzles branching from a central hub room. Currently the first puzzle is functionally complete. The second puzzle is under construction.
CG's Untitled Gel Puzzles BETA
OK here's the functionally complete, put together gelmaps This is a 3 chamber composite of the two WIP maps I submitted earlier (Bridgeclimb and Gelerase) and a third test chamber (working title: anglebounce) Rather than type up a lengthy description that nobody will read i'll just say "here it is!" Full Wheately themed puzzles mainly involving repulsion gel. Diffuculty: hard PLEASE post me notes on this, any problems, and room for improvement, and maybe some help optimizing the large, open areas (yes I used visclusters.) I need feedback before I do submit v1.0 to the released maps section. EDIT: I just realized that, in area 2, there is a button on the floor to the left as you exit the observation room. The button simply turns the light off and on. thats ALL it does. Pelase ignore it as I was using it to test the lights out part of the sequence im making to go between areas 2 and 3
Cleanup Portation
After my last map pack ( Cleanup! Invertigo ), I've had the plan to make a second part to it, wrapping up the story. Problem was though, that I didn't had the time nor energy anymore after some months to continue my work. But even with that fact, I was able to finish two maps (three actually [missing now is the "intro" map], but I won't release it 'cause of a big bug), which I want to release now. So what is this, in short? These two maps are my remaining work of the second chapter of my Cleanup!-mappack. They are, actually, in a quite polished condition. And I didn't want my work go to waste just because I won't work on any more Portal 2 stuff anymore. So here it is - have fun! I won't fix any bugs or problems, if any appear. But I still would like to hear some feedback, just so I know what you think of my work.
