Posted this on another mapping forum, but thought that somebody here might find this interesting, too. Reposting!

Hey. As a part of research for My Project That I Might Do Someday Maybe Perhaps When I'm Less Lazy?, today I studied the different aesthetic themes used in Portal 2. I narrowed them down to 7 different types. I'm not sure if it's worthy of a topic, but I thought somebody here might find this interesting or useful.

These are pretty big pictures.

Feel free to discuss the different aesthetic themes used or point out if you disagree with something. Thanks, and have fun.

Excellent breakdown :biggrin: Does anyone have a (even partial) list yet of some of the textures used in P2?

Have a nice day,

Open one of the .lst files from the reslists folder in notepad. It has every file loaded for every map - even for some maps that aren't in the final game.
