12 Angry Tests 1.1

UPDATE! Last map released! Make sure to try it out and give me feedback! The pack is mostly finished, just the visuals on the last map and some minor tweaks left. (The first 2 maps are from my contest entry Don't Eat the Paint(10th place)) I challenged myself to make 1 map with 2 tests for each test element (Laser, Gel, Light Bridge, Funnel) and then 2 maps with 2 tests each with a combination of test elements. And also to use every different theme and no custom content. For most of the maps there is also a BTS part. These five maps are mostly finished but I expect I have to change them after you guys give me feedback(And make sure that you do!) The last map is still too unfinished for testing but it will have the theme from the DLC maps and have a boss battle. I want to know EVERYTHING that can be improved, is or looks bad, and where you get stuck and EVERYTHING!

A short map made in the clean style. It consists out of one test that's supposed to be medium difficulty. Edit: Turns out to be hard. Please tell me what you think about it and report bugs/unintended solutions.

After my first map, Atloss, I decided something a bit more simple would be a good idea. This map features three puzzles using my invention the fizzlerstar. I used this guide by lpfreaky90 for my level design. Thanks! Criticism and feedback welcome - encouraged, even. This is Falconer D. We're done here. Difficulty: Easy. No ninja skills required. Screenshots Changelog 2012/04/10 Bug fixes & element changes. No longer requires awkward positioning. No more unused elements. 2012/04/10 Initial release.

Here's another set of 7 chambers. These will probably play faster than my other ones. Hints are given where appropriate and the concepts should be pretty straightforward. Additionally, I had some people playtest the maps, so they should be more bugfree than my other maps. Thank you testers! Each chamber will lead to the next. All have elevators, but not all have videos (it didn't seem necessary). An interesting thought was to create small videos showing the intended solution at the end, but that would make the filesize quite a bit larger. Start the sequence with 'map testmap_31_b' This is a zip file with the maps and materials folders. Extract them to wherever you can get Portal 2 to recognize them. Maps: testmap_31_b - Vacuum Flange Corridor testmap_31 - Blown Away testmap_33_c - Touchy testmap_35 - One Way or the Other testmap_36 - Here a second ago testmap_38 - Push and Pull testmap_39 - Don't Look Back Release 1.0.1: Vacuum Flange Corridor: Added game_text instructions for the first flange Push and Pull: Added grates covering the first two portal surfaces to prevent skipping the second blob.

7 more chambers. Again, I must warn you that these are experimental. I've attempted to give the player direction without resorting to neon signs, but some ideas are a little...odd. Some chambers have autosaves right before you are about to kill yourself. So, if you die, don't panic...much. Each chamber will lead to the next. The last one does not have an elevator, so the transition may be a bit jarring. Start the sequence with 'map testmap_22'. The following is a list of all the maps in the pack with their titles from corresponding YouTube videos: testmap_22 - Up and Down testmap_24 - Align It Yourself testmap_25 - Enough is Enough testmap_26 - Lateral Thinking testmap_27 - Heavy Lifting testmap_28 - Not Another Puzzle testmap_29 - Assuming Control Due to vpks not working right at the time of posting, this is a zip file with the maps and materials folders. Extract them to wherever you can get Portal 2 to recognize them. Note: Align It Yourself will briefly toggle cheats to get sv_allow_mobile_portals working. The Peer Review update (or its subsequent updates) somehow made toggling it without cheats unreliable. The chamber isn't broken without mobile portals, it'll just take a little longer. Please let me know of any bugs you find...except that hard light surface over videos not working right. I don't believe I can do anything about that without sacrificing one or the other. Also, the spheres in 28 may disappear through the floor. Blame Source's physics. Release 1.0.1: Changed the map transition command in 26 from 'changelevel' to 'map' as a fix for visibility issues in 27. Release 1.0.2: Added clip to mobile portal surface in 27 to prevent players from getting stuck behind. Primary attack is automatic fire and secondary is semi-auto in 29. Added broken room to 29 to mirror the target room. It is difficult to see and may be removed/moved/replaced in a future release. All maps set map_wants_save_disable to 0 after 4 seconds have elapsed. This fixes the issue where players were unable to quicksave until they either reloaded the map or changed the variable themselves. Disabled top wall projectors in 26 to make getting to the elevator easier if the player fell. Release 1.0.3: Assuming Control: Added tipped over tube and crushed turret Modified player failure execution to briefly toggle cheats Made falling tube demonstration start earlier and more prominent Added possibility to destroy target without having to neutralize immediate threats Modified firing system activation to briefly toggle cheats Realigned some textures Made windows "less shiny" Align it Yourself: Made panel move around until you look at it to promote more USEful curiosity Enough is Enough: Added clip to prevent prematurely exiting puzzle Added moving portallable panel to prevent players from being stranded Heavy Lifting: Removed upper 2 levels of portallable surfaces above entry door Added location check for buttons Added vphysics clips to prevent button from wedging itself in Changed station 2's i/o to stop unnecessary panel animation changes Changed station 3's i/o to address issues with the exit door

Hi, This is going to be my very first game map. I have never made any game maps or anything related to 3D before. Most of you must have played the Peer Review DLC by now. I wanted to release this map before the DLC but I really didn't have time. Well better late than never. The map consists of 2 short and 1 medium length chambers. My map is very less detailed , about 1/10th detail of the maps made by pros here. There is a readme file included for setup instructions. Suggestions, criticisms, trapped areas, not intended solutions , and all other feedback are welcome. I may not have time to fix every minor issue but do specify if you found any(may help me in the future). Also this is the first time I am uploading something online for the public. So I need to know some answers fast even if you like my map or not. 1. Did I upload it right? 2. Does my map run? 3. Do the custom music and material work? Haven't worked on optimizations and will not unless really necessary. Known issues: 1. I am using instances/gameplay/animated_pushout_128.vmf instance provided by Valve. The problem is that when you portal and go through it you see some 'grid lines' on the panel. 2. Skybox cuts a little. 3. portal gun pedestal 'close floor' are black. Well I hope this turns out to be a great map for you all. Steam ID:chimera201 And sorry for my bad english if any. EDIT: Aftermath v0.9 update 1. Fixed bright lighting 2. Fixed exploits in puzzle 2 & 3 Bug: Wheatley says 'alright get moving' if you reach puzzle 1 fast enough

A collection of 7 maps I've made over the past few weeks to test various ideas. They are all dead simple...well, I tried to make the last one difficult, but I believe I did it in all the wrong ways (long walks, lots of shuffling between platforms, and some things aren't that visible). Anyways, each map will lead to the next. There are no elevators, so after completing a chamber, walk past, through, and onward from the exit doors. There are triggers set to change to the next map 3 seconds after you contact them. Start the sequence with "map testMap_3_movingButton". Note: [SP] Bits or Pieces was initially part of this, but since I submitted it for the Mapping Contest, it has been omitted. It revisits the moving button and rotating room ideas.

An old-Aperture test sphere featuring repulsion and propulsion gels. This is my first Portal 2 map, so I'd appreciate any thoughts or comments.
