New and confused

Hello Portal fans!

I am a new member burning with excitement to make a decent portal map. The twist is, I am not very good coming up with ideas just like with making my movies.

Anyway I can develop good ideas for Portal maps to make?

Thanks all :)

What can I say... the ideas are base of every portal map and if I had ideas, I would make a new portal map. But I have no ideas (well, depleted all of them in my first and (yet) last portal map). Maybe you could find somebody who does not know how to make maps, but has great ideas. That would be exciting :wink:

Test Chamber 74:
(percentage calculation sphere self-test failed!)
108.1% done, -8.1% remaining...
Released here!

All maps for Portal (1/2) worth playing are mirrored here.

Welcome to the social. Ideas are everywhere, you just gotta find the perfect inspiration.

Where could it be?

If you need us to tell you, it won't work.

Hey Simon, if you can map, I can map-out some concepts. I don't have the experience or skills to work with hammer but I've played the best of user-generated portal maps and I believe I have some unique concepts.

Send me a pm if you're interested in doing a little project together - I'm in the process of learning hammer now so I'm sure we can help each other out.

I have a lot of great ideas. The problem is none of them actually involve portals.

"Duct Tape is the answer."

Looks like you're in the wrong place then.

Well... to get inspiration you can mix and / or twist any other things you think portal is going to be cool with... take me as an example, I do like Portal, and Timeshift and Blinx, Blinx an Timeshift you control time, therefor I have added a trigger in my map that slow time!

This is my signature.
