A Question for all of you!
Basically, I want to know if there are enough people out there still wanting for custom content for me to continue pushing onward with my levels. Please voice yourselves in the thread's poll, be honest about it, and please don't flame me for asking about this.
Also, if you know of other portal fan-sites / forums please share them here.
Also, for those of you interested, I'm also working on a map pack. Here are some screenshots I took a fair while back:
I'll post some soon tho
Back to the point anywho. Definately don't give up dvlstx theres still a few of us left who want it. I for one have been checking nearly every day for new portal maps on the hope that someone has released one.
But ya. I'll release stuff. Just wait. \/

I can't release maps as often as I would. Plus portal mapping is dropping cause everyone is mapping for L4D, maybe.But ya. I'll release stuff. Just wait. \/

I'll probably start from the beginning and play the whole way through to get the best experience.

That's what I'd do. I have plans on making it into a package, instead of the regular bsps.
I think the ideal model for distribution here is pesp, which was released episodically and will be rolled up in to a pack when it's done.
However, my map-pack wouldn't fit/make sense in episodes, because it has a story in it that all ties together in the end. If it was released in episodes, the bits of the story from the start, middle, and end would get jumbled up or forgotten. I also try to portray an image of GLaDOS in my map pack, and that too would be dissolved if the story was broken apart.
Anywho! I sincerely wish that I wasn't helping sbrown test his PESP maps because when he told me a plot twist in it I was like OH S**T! and now I wont get to do that when I play it ._.

I would crank out a couple of maps myself if it weren't for that damned lighting.
I tend to only go so far with making my lighting perfect, especially when I have a lot of colored lighting in LDR. If I can't get it to look good I just space the light out and make the room well lit. It may not look as good but I believe the geometry and the playability of the map is more important.
