I personally think that the last two GlaDOS lines should be delivered in reverse order because: [spoiler]the way it is now GLaDOS tells you to "mind the gap" after you've already gotten through the crushing walls. And the line that you now have before the crushing walls about remaining resolute would make as much sense, if not more, at the end of the level.[/spoiler]

well about the GlaDOS lines: those lines are single choerographc scenes
but consist of more spoken lines - so sometimes they have a prt that you want and then a complety different thing is attached to the file.

in the end i wanted to have a simple "go to the chamber log" line from GlaDOS but they are always combined with some different lines that didn't quite fit there .. so i chose the one with the gap.

btw i'm working on the second chamber now and i can tell you that it will feature some puzzles that are unseen in the main game and it contains
everyones favorite: the weighted companion cube!

btw

No AI problems for me, but that turret room was extremely difficult. Took me many tries to get through that.

Also, [spoiler]the crushing walls room would be more interesting if you had to fling to make it in time, or something. As it stands, you can just run through, and that's sorta uninteresting, I think. Either make a barrier to fling over or make them move faster. Also, perhaps it'd be better if they were activated with a switch.[/spoiler]

Read the contest thread, it ends this weekend since the SDK's release was a bit late.

Just played through this map a couple times, and I'm very impressed. It's solidly crafted, well-planned, and has some very creative puzzles.

There is one small problem: in the [spoiler]huge fling room, with the emancipation grid, if you go up to the wall just below the button and look down,[/spoiler] you can see outside the level. Not map-breaking, but if you plan to release an updated version, I can't imagine it being to hard to fix. If you need a better explanation of where it is, just ask.

My only other gripe is the [spoiler]turret ambush near the end. My first time through, I went in, the doors sealed (which was extremely cool, might I say), and then I died in a hail of bullets. In my opinion, there should be some kind of indicator - nothing to obvious, but maybe a single-dot-square where the first turrets show up, and a two-dot-square on the second wave, just to give first-timers more than luck to help them.[/spoiler]

All things considered, a great start to Portal mapping - I really enjoyed this map.

well thanks for the whole bug reports and gameplay hints
but i don't really think i should rerelease the whole map .. i mean many people dowloaded it and why would they redownlod it for a few bug fixes?

but i think i will fix it and release it later when all my chambers are done and i can do a little pack or so ^^

Well, not everyone will download it for a few bug fixes. Some will, but a lot of it will be new traffic that may or may not end up posting on the forum some time. If it were my map, i'd want to iron out the bugs in any public releases asap.
