OK, got past that one. Now I'm in the next chamber where you're supposed to "fling" but you're blocked by curtains.... bleah. Hints??

Try this excellent walkthrough; some of the solutions were unintended but work pretty well

Thx! Why didn't I think to look on youtube for a walkthru.

Got to the end. Some pretty tough puzzles in there! I sometimes wondered if the solutions I found were unintended.

Again nice map job!

Do you have a version that'll appear in bonus maps? I don't want to mess with the main campaign, as it could cause errors throughout the testing process.

Uh, what? You should just be able to "map somemapname.bsp" in the console.

But I agree, the map should have a proper BMS... When did people stop doing that?

It is a BMZ file which will install to the bonus maps folder automatically after loading it in Portal. I don't understand what you are talking about :arrow:

Hey I just beat this map. Very nicely put together. Though one thing stuck out and I'd probably have to replay it to get the exact location, but I remember when I was Flinging myself in part of the map I picture of a guy's face (like a picture from a point/shoot camera) popped up for less than half a second. Scared the hell out of me, but I'll get back to you on its location.

Really? That must have been some sort of glitch; I haven't put anything like that in there :mrgreen:

I don't know. I know I hit a wall and this guy's face showed up just enough to scare me and went away. Kinda in class right now so I can't load up the map...
