Portal Detector Instances

Pure Intellect²: A Lecture in Reanimation
An old map of mine that I recently gave a facelift to. Because it's old, there wasn't much I could do to optimize it, but I tried. So, it's an underground map that has 1 test chamber, lots of exploration, and a not-so-original story twist with an original implementation! All custom content is packed. Also, minor setback is that it doesn't automatically disconnect you because I couldn't be bothered to do another compile (this was intended for the Workshop only) So, welcome. Feedback is appreci...
HD Portals, Hand under Portalgun
I take no credit for making the files contained. I just put them together for others to enjoy. There are 2 pak01_dir.vpk files. One contains the portalgun as clean/HD, the other as normal. They both contain the "Hand under Portalgun" and "HD Portals".

TNT Turrets
Turret explosive Custom Instance Install: Replace the file "turret.vmf" in your "...Steam\steamapps\common\portal 2\sdk_content\maps\instances\p2editor" Now all your new maps published in Puzzle Editor will have the original turrets replaced by explosive turrets. Existing maps must be republished to incorporate the new elements. Samples: http://steamcommunity.com/workshop/file ... =104763076
Trifurcated
A small and difficult map, inspired by "fizzler network" puzzles like Seven Gates and Gridlock. Note that there are two types of glass- the one with crossed pattern blocks lasers. Also, I've currently uploaded to the TWP database so that Mac users can play it (they have issues with workshop maps as far as I know) and also because I can't access Steam community at the moment. I will upload to the workshop and post the link in this description later. INSTALLATION Extract sp_trifurcate...

[SP] The Ledge
Version 1.8: For some reason the RAR-file was suddenly corrupt and only contained part3. While at it I have also fixed an issue with an unintentionally portable texture. Thanks Tyri!!! Version 1.7: - All parts overhauled. Many thanks to Domathan,zivi7, sicklebrick, Shakky, josepezdj and KengKong for pointing out the issues and exploits. There are still some ninja solutions left which I either found creative enough to leave as is, or weren’t able to fix without rearranging the whole map. ...

[SP] Motanum´s Wall Bridge
A map made in hammer fully. Couple of months back. Sligthly harder than Juggling. Maybe. Check it out and upload a blind playthrough if possible, I love to watch test subjects... err... I mean players... solve my chambers. Again, thanks for rating, the feedback and you can use my site to contact me. To install just put the bsp in your steamapps/common/portal 2/portal2/maps folder. Use the console command map to launch it in game.
