Some tiny tweaks in hammer (like placement helpers, autosaves and my deathfizzler) But the rest is all easy map maker! :3

So I take it that initially, at least, it's Clean style only?

Can you upload a whole mappack in one piece? Can you upload VPKs? Do VPKs work again? I hope this all so damn mauch.

Well, I'm not sure how much I should say here, but you can upload maps and then place them in a set (and possibly disable individual download) And I don't see any real need to upload a VPK as you can just pakrat your files...

I can't wait for this! I really hope that this will live up to my expectations. As P0rtalPlayer is, I am also going to post maps here, I like this community and the feedback everyone gives here at TWP. I am just pretty much worried about the rating system, I will expect to see comments like this. Lol nice map dude, I like the bouncy gel. Rating: 5/5. When it's just a big box with gel and a door. But this will make texture alignment etc. way easier! Overall, I really just can't wait for this to come out!

There's not much worry of that. The rating system is based on + and -, rather than a star value - all maps start with 2.5 out of 5 and the ratings will modify that from there. It's the same as with the skyrim workshop.

Man, that just looks so cool. I still really wish I got accepted into the Beta for it but you know maybe when the next beta comes around I'll get into it. I always gotta have hope.

Anyway I love the way this looks, I cannot wait to get to use it, I hope to be able to create some awesome test chambers with it. I'm actually looking forward to putting some of my already existing maps and the ones I've yet to create on the Steam Workshop as well as continue to upload them here on this site. I have a feeling that the Portal mapping community is about to get a whole lot bigger. I just wonder how many "Test maps" we will see in the first couple of weeks. Even so I'm looking forward to seeing the test chambers that come out of this.

Cna you choose to make a map without having it be public? If so then that would fix the issue with having lots of "test maps".

Well, you can, but from past experience I have no reason to believe that people testing things out for themselves will check that option... So I think I won't touch the workshop in the first two weeks or so.

On a more serious note, I honestly think general release quality of products here on TWP is gonna' be so much better, seeing as there's little to no need to post a test map here anymore. With that in mind, I too can't wait!

Anyone trying to read all the small print in the bottom left side of the trailer? I'm trying to enlarge it with as high a quality as possible, but I'm getting nowhere.

Although I love all the little easter egg things: Meet the Pyro, all the screenshots of maps (some of which look familiar) Test II, etc.

Since this comes as a DLC I believe is there anything else that comes with it thats known?Like maybe some more SP maps since none came last time.I doubt it it just wondering since last one had coop maps

It's just the editor.

The left changes a bunch, but the right says "This Aperture Science Outsourcing and Perpetual Testing Initiative orientation video is for internal use only. Do not distribute to other Earths."

Watch it on Valve's official youtube channel, they have it in 1080p.

So I noticed that the promo vid had a few maps with lpfreaky90's death fizzler in it. They must have paid her a huge royalty to use that. So, like ... LP ... you're, like, single ... right? Wouldn't you really like to live in the U.S. where Valve is headquartered? We have abundant corn ... and many televisions ... and the best damn game developers in the world!! Plus ... I'm a really nice guy. Honest.

They did not use LPs death fizzler, I have made maps in the editor then replaced the laser with a death fizzler

Removed video about the beta since people in the beta aren't allowed to share this stuff yet.
No hard feelings

I know you didn't post this video, but can you not share it valve really doesn't want people to see this yet

This will be the renaissance of Portal 2 mapping guise, I can feel it.

LOL
No, they're not death fizzlers, they're just the normal laser fields
