[WIP] DaMaGepy 01

I'm planning to make some pretty hard map, that not just based on portals and flings momentums etc. But I need to make a "learning" map before it to show some trick and logic in preparation. This map will be the training level. Will have 8 room with 12 "puzzle". Atm there are 4 puzzle ready, at 33% done I'll use it for the contest, then will continue making it.
Dont worry, the rest of the maps will not be this easy Smile

pretty cool, i really like the part where you have to climb the wall for the portal gun i assume the part past the turrets is imcomplete. there are some real nice ideas from your site too. i was hoping someone would do some outdoors portal maps, and maps with more than one portal set (say 4-6 portals open at once), as i've heard people say it's possible.

Looks awesome, i'm going to play it now. It looks like it deserves a review.

Wait, you review WIPs? Why did I think it was just release maps?

The map in the current form is redy for cotest, ball, snetry + chemical room now completely works. Will only add some content after the last door (fadeout maybe)
After that, I'll just continue the map... Smile

Update: will upload its contest version in 2 hour, will post here the new link...

EH, had a bug with textures/surfaces, forgot to rename the txt that bspzip used to include files. Uploaded a fixed version!

I liked it, mostly. Too many places where you break the "what's portable and what's not" rules though. (Many light gray concrete walls that don't accept portals.)

Also the ending was annoying. First time I died, ofc, then I reloaded and came back and killed all the turrets. Then what? Nothing... Very disappointing...

I usually arrange my noportal volumes so that they're always 32 units away from any concrete surface. Since the game won't put a portal on anything less than 64 units wide, it's a "safe" margin that you won't be able to put a portal on.
