what is this?
I was screwin with one of my levels and this happened. http://i45.tinypic.com/zsnv9j.png EDIT: sorry I wasn't clear my characters chell instead of the black character. |
I'm an Xbox user myself, so I've had NO experience with custom levels or map builders and that (which really dissaponts me). I've heard there is one coming to XBLA as Portal 2 DLC, but can anyone confirm this?

Also I think I could cut Chamberception down quite alot. Would need to route plan a little bit. |
I put my first level up. It's by and large a test of what the editor can do. It's very short and there's no real puzzle. Still, I'd appreciate any feedback on it.
Now that I have a feel for the editor I have some really cool ideas, inspired by the really nice looking test chambers in the per-release videos that were cut. Link |
Playing Portal 2's story mode for the first ever time in my life. My god it is funny.

A comedy writer left his job at a some funny website to join Valve. Thats why it's so funny.

Hey, I've made a test chamber in the in-game editor. To be honest, it's my first map and I've never played any other community maps, but I hope someone will find it good enough:
http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfile...s/?id=89908339 It's not very hard IMO, but it's harder than I originally thought |
I'll give it a try. And now that this thread is revived I might as well take this chance to direct you guys to my series of bullshit chambers, I'll be getting into Hammer soon.
My latest maps, "Platforms I - IV" are just about fun and pose no real challenge, but I have fun playing them. Here |
You two want me to video myself attempting your maps for the first time? Maximum 2 maps each, so select carefully. :P (Editing videos takes a lot of time - I just did the Splat Adventure event vid for the Minecraft server that we had 3 days ago, it took me about 4 hours. :S)
|
Sure : D Would be also nice if you tried to break it (Step into an unwinnable situation or win the chamber in a way I wasn't expecting) if possible. I don't think it is, because I fixed all issues I found before publishing the map, but still.
I've got only one map so far, so there's no room for me for selecting ;) |
Sweet! Of mine, I think you should film Platforms and The Pits.
They're not too hard, but Platforms can get a bit tedious at times ;). |
Okay then, I'll do them when I get the time and aren't sleep-deprived. The vids will probably be ready over the next 2 or 3 days or so. :)
|
So how are these videos coming along?
On another note, I can't launch the Portal 2 authoring tools. The dialogue box opens, saying 'Launching Portal 2 authoring tools' and all that, but then it just closes and nothing happens, does anyone know what's going on? |
? Oh crap, I forgot about those. Will do them tomorrow.
|
Okay, that took longer than I expected.
Reach the Door: Platforms: I'll do "The Pits" within the next couple of days or so. |
Nice xD You solved it faster than the other two testers, and in almost exact way that I intended. I blame them.
Although, you actually made it a little more annoying by yourself. You could avoid bouncing back from portals by pressing crouch button (CTRL) (blue gel stops working then and you can safely jump on it with no worries). You also didn't have to spray blue gel all over the walls while you wanted to go up in that hallway. It works with the blue gel only on the floor (first jump's height is a bit smaller than the first bounce, but you could reach it after that). I didn't use blue gel near the end door as well |
Haha, thanks for my thumbs up! Although when you were fiddling with the laser, you were overthinking it, you were supposed to place a portal on the surface above the door, it makes it ten times easier. Oh well, you did it in a way I didn't think was possible. XD
