The PTI editor lowered the entry barrier enough for me to get into making maps, but I'm already annoyed at some of its limitations. Maybe I'll actually learn how to use Hammer now...

Here are the three most polished maps I've made:

Spooky Action at a Distance
http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=68674159
Short and relatively easy, as far as I can tell.

The Gap
http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=71229823
Inspired a bit by the structure in the 5th hard light co-op level, but then I took it and ran. If I could add a musical trigger to that first button, I would...
Sort of an exploratory kind of map, where you have to figure out how to climb higher in the test chamber.

I might have tried to cram too much into too little space here, but I think it works.

I put together a small collection of 8 maps, which includes my contest entry from last year. All of them focus on gels. It is, quite aptly, called Too Much Goo. Here are some of the stages:


Give 'em a go, if you please!

This one was more of a self test, on how to line up portal-able panels and faith plates. I was working on another (not crazy faith-plate) one, but hit a bit of mappers block, so I made this. Pretty simple, but a bit of a trigger-finger challenge.

Sequence
A mind-challenging chamber involving cubes and lasers. Remember, it's all a matter of order.

Oh please, propulsion gel:
I've already seen that one at least 3 times here on twp.
Aerial Faith Plate: that level is more or less also in the normal campaign
Aerial Faith Plate 2: that level is also more or less in the normal campaign.

Seriously, the easy map maker requires no skill, only a bit of creativity and a nice idea for a puzzle. If you don't have the slightest amount of creativity, please don't create maps. No one wants to play the maps they've already played a thousand times. Besides spamming these kinds of maps on the workshop makes it a lot harder to find decent ones.

And the gel one was fun because of the crushers at the end, not because of the very simple solution.

Sorry if it's a bit harsh but honestly I've got no idea how I should compliment you in any way:
* The maps is PTI -> no skill
* The puzzle is not original
* The puzzle is not hard
* Playing the map I've already played at least 3 times is not fun.
So yea, the 4 points on which I rate are all negative.

Here are some of my latest maps. I must have some pretty dumb friends because none can make it through any of them. I wanted to make them tough but I really didn't think they were THAT hard. I'm sure they won't be for any portal vets. Anyway they took me forever to make but it was fun.

Do you wonder, why your parcel delivery taking so long? Here is the answer. Step into a day in the life of a postal worker.

I wanted to build a chamber, that is like a huge maschine where you can go in and see the process inside.

Comments: "Sublime mapping! Fun idea and fun to play. It also looks great and isn't too visually confusing."

I've seen the same thing with people remaking Portal 1 chambers and just downvote everytime. Unoriginal idea for the sake of making a map. It's just boring =(

Lots of different tasks you must complete to reach the ultimate end. (You should use every element I put in. If not, message me on steam with your new solution.)

Question: will maps put here still be added to the compilation? Or do we have to use the pimp thread?

pimp your thread is to show in-editor stuff and/or screenshots of your work in progress maps
Finished maps that you want to have included in the playlist should be uploaded here.

Also: maps from this thread can be considered for the community roundups.

My latest in-game editor map is Stuck In The Middle. 3 puzzles, first and third are very easy while the middle puzzle may take some work. Still not real sure how difficult the puzzles are that I'm putting out. Would love to get some feedback from the mapping guru's here on TWP.

Here is my first try, and I don't think it's that bad.
