Hmmm 
I have been playing a bit more of Portal (360), and I wouild like to say that I can do a lot of the stuff like the moves outlined in #94, 98 and 99, but I'll be damned if my girlfriend can!!!

Its quited hard really - Which I like :-P 
Hmm... 
Shmitz Chamber is an interesting map, there are some good ideas in it, but I really don't like the harder trajectory bits. The first 'puzzle' is the hardest probably, the rest was fine. 
Ooohhh 
The SDK is updated? I know what I am doing this weekend! 
Cursing The Vile Interface Of Hammer? 
 
Lol 
yeah, getting accustomed to WC after gtkr is painful. i wonder if there's a way to convert from q3map format to hl2map format... :P

anyways, about the maps, i think it's still too early to tell. i know we can't be the only ones out there, so i'm sure there will be some more slow puzzle heavy maps out. 
 
necros: yes, it's possible, but probably quite limited. There's some kind of "import old-skool HL map file" thingo, which imports .map files, probably limited to whatever format HL used. Worked great for me back when HL2 was newish, imported a Quake map, and fixed up all textures in WC. 
 
it would be great to see some maps that were more real-world/HL2 themed but with the addition of the portal gun. 
 
You mean like ep3 is gonna be? 
^ 
yeah, wow. That's gonna be amazing. 
XD 
Lol 
Narbacular Drop 
Portal not long enough for you? Want to test out ideas for Portal mapping with a simple editor? Try out Narbacular Drop and it's level editing tools.

I just can't get enough of this game concept. 
 
Well, my understanding is that Narbacular Drop is the base of Portal (Valve hired or contracted the developers). 
Addicted
