Chain Fling
Hello thar. This is my first puzzle map for Portal 2. It is a fairly easy map. Installing: Place the file into "steam\steamapps\common\portal 2\portal2\maps\" This map focuses mainly on flinging. Change log: v1.0 - Release v1.2 - Aligned textures - Shifted some triggers - Added a info_placement_helper ( As if the map isn't easy enough ). Any feedback is welcomed. Habzs.

[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.
Light Activation
Description Light Activation. The 'Light' as in 'Weightless'. A simple map consisting of laser activators. This map isn't completed. I kind of want 4 - 6 puzzles in this map. Features: Light activator ( DONE ). Weightless or Light Cube ( Work in progress, not in release ) Installing: Place the file into "steam\steamapps\common\portal 2\portal2\maps\" Change log: v0.5a - Release Any feedback is welcomed.

Automated Map Installer
Updates will resume in approximately 10 days, until then I will have no internet. Hello everyone! Portal 2 Map Installer is a compact program I wrote. It monitors My Documents/Portal 2 Map Installer and automatically installs any maps it finds there. It can also accept maps dragged onto the window. FEATURES: -Easy to use -Folder monitoring -Drag and drop support -Minimalistic user interface (prevents screen clutter) -Stay on top functionality (optional - disabled by default) -Run at startup functionality (optional - disabled by default) -Asks politely before overwriting files and makes a backup SUPPORTED MAP TYPES: -Just about all of the maps on this site -Archives: RAR, ZIP, 7Z -BSP, VMT, VTF, NUT, MDL, PHY and a whole lot more -Map, materials, textures, scripts, models etc... -Will keep folder architecture if valid -Can install maps with unsupported extensions if valid folder architecture is found. It is currently in BETA. I have tested it myself and found a few minor errors, but it is at a releasable stage. Please test it and let me know of any errors. Tutorial videos coming soon, should be pretty self explanatory though. Known errors: - Places unknown file types in: Steam>Steamapps>Common>Portal 2>Portal2>INVALID - Because of this you will probably often get messages asking you if you want to overwrite readme.txt - Does not correctly detect Portal 2 directory when it is not in Steam directory. (Does anyone know of a better registry key to use than HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run and then adding SteamApps/common/portal 2?) CHANGELOG: V1.2.0 FIXED - Files extracted to the wrong place when the archive name contained portal2 or portal 2 (case-insensitive) V1.1.0 FIXED Major error where 7zip was not packaged with the program V1.0.0 Original Release
Gelocity
This coop map is rather a race track than a puzzle. Use your portal gun cleverly to trick your opponent and be the first to reach the finish line! You will probably need a few laps until you know all tricks - so give it a second try and it will be smoother and more fun. Installation instructions: 1. Extract mp_coop_gelocity to your Portal 2 maps folder (...\SteamApps\common\portal 2\portal2\maps). 2. In Coop Hub open developer console and type "changelevel mp_coop_gelocity". 3. Race! Note: It takes a moment to paint the race track with propulsion gel. So if you experience performance issues, just wait a minute before starting. Special thanks to Nerzl for playtesting. Updates: v1.02 - fixed animated panels - changed the portal cleanser's visuals - added button for activating remote view - added direction signs v1.01 - fixed the buttons in the first room (sound bug) - added hints to the buttons - fixed catapults (animation error and launch target error) - fixed paint sprayers (now get properly removed after finishing) - some visual changes/fixes - added some clip walls - now returns to mp_coop_lobby_3 afterwards Screenshots: [url=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/819/gelocity3.jpg/:omvyq2s6][img:omvyq2s6]http://img819.imageshack.us/img819/2564/gelocity3.th.jpg[/img:omvyq2s6][/url:omvyq2s6] [url=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/90/gelocity2.jpg/:omvyq2s6][img:omvyq2s6]http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/4922/gelocity2.th.jpg[/img:omvyq2s6][/url:omvyq2s6] [url=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/40/gelocity4.jpg/:omvyq2s6][img:omvyq2s6]http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/3236/gelocity4.th.jpg[/img:omvyq2s6][/url:omvyq2s6] [url=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/534/gelocity1.jpg/:omvyq2s6][img:omvyq2s6]http://img534.imageshack.us/img534/9558/gelocity1.th.jpg[/img:omvyq2s6][/url:omvyq2s6]
Faith
My first Portal map! It's a single player map consisting of 4 quite easy, short chambers which should take about 15 minutes to complete. As .vpks are currently not working due to DLC pack, please extract all files to: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\portal 2 In game press ` (to the left of 1) to open the console and type "map faith" to play the level. Once .vpks are working again I will release an update. Hope you enjoy, and any comments/feedback/recommendations please let me know in the topic link below. If you should happen to get stuck I have posted a video walk through here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZSODxmIBDU Release updates: v1.0 - Inital release v1.1 - Fix bug in chamber 4: you can get stuck if you don't keep a cube with you. v1.2 - Fix bug in chamber 4: there are too many cubes so you can get through the chamber by cheating. v1.3 - Bridge leading to Chamber 2: You can no longer run along the top while it is down. Chamber 2: The main puzzle has new geometry, so that cubes cannot fall between the gaps of the arms. v1.4: Chamber 1 and 2: Droppers fixed so that buttons only reset once the dropper is closed.
