I use Fraps. it records to where I want. 1 key to record & same key to stop.
http://www.fraps.com/faq.php
I then use windows movie maker, to add captions & save in a format that windows media player can play. I choose recomended settings, which are high & take longer.
due to this, uploading it to youtube, takes ages.
so I will upload just before going to do something else for a few hours.
26 mins took about 8 hrs.

type: demonstration /revenge/ fun (hopefully ?)
I strongly recommend playing non-spoiler videos 1st.
to get the most from this map.

I have added:
Experiment 3 (THIS IS NOT A PUZZLE CHAMBER...as such)
to my list.
Drackvor  [author] 8 Mar, 2013 @ 4:06pm 
oh btw, this map has also been updated to stop you getting that pesky cube past the first chamber!
Drackvor  [author] 8 Mar, 2013 @ 4:05pm 
please do i have started to folow you anyway so i should be notified when any new maps come up, speaking of which I finished a new experiment I have been working on for a few days have a look if you want it came to me when i started work on partial to a fizzler and how i could impliment the funnels and lasers in a slightly different way!

if you want, I can leave a link in your comments, when it's finished ?
Drackvor  [author] 8 Mar, 2013 @ 3:27pm 
Torture? amazing Torture is always a welcome relief! just a pity you cant put a turret into a laser set it on fire then dunk it in water to put it out... ... ... :D *manical laughter*
mood3rd 8 Mar, 2013 @ 3:23pm 
I must confess.
I am working on a map, where you torture turrets.
but in the early stages & time available is short.
I have about 7 other maps I am also working on.
but have been spending a lot of gaming time, updating existing maps.
due to video footage, of exploits, posted to my comments.
but not complaining.
as any improvement to my maps, is welcome.

dont resist! allow your dark thoughts to become manifested in maps made for portal 2!
mood3rd 7 Mar, 2013 @ 3:15pm 
Drackvor
resisting the dark side, is much more challenging.
though you will see by my maps, I slip from time to time.
Drackvor  [author] 7 Mar, 2013 @ 3:11pm 
I have been there for a long long time, who can resist having lightning coming from your fingers...oh and also they get to wear black which as we all know is much cooler than white (contrary to common belief black reflects heat just as well if not better than white material..hence why tou see a lot of people who live in deserts etc wear black!) so it is cooler on more than one level! how amazing is THAT! So mood3rd "come to the dark siiiide!"
mood3rd 7 Mar, 2013 @ 2:50pm 
Drackvor
carefull.
the dark side of the force can by suductive.
Drackvor  [author] 7 Mar, 2013 @ 2:47pm 
ok then there is 1 more thing i can do to make it a perma death i think! I will have a closer look into this! I will have you kill one...I will!

not drop the cube, drop the cubes.
as I leave a portal where the cubes are on their buttons.
then go to the area past the piston.
just before the fizzler.
then portal back twice, for both of them.
then walk through the fizzler & stand on the button.
then fire the portals each side of the fizzler.
then get the cubes.
I leave 1 with a portal by it & jump onto the blue angled panel, with the other.
I then portal back, for the other cube.

hope this helps
Drackvor  [author] 7 Mar, 2013 @ 2:15pm 
with portals on both sides of the fizzler, you will have to drop the cube you intend to save go through the fizzler, stand on button and fire 2 portals, to get the cube through, by this time the sliding panel will have closed, and there is no way of getting back for the other cube is there?
mood3rd 7 Mar, 2013 @ 2:04pm 
Drackvor
seriously though.
the fizzler can stop both cubes, if it stays on.
but when off, both cubes may pass.
so stand on the button, fire a portal both sides of the fizzler.
then go get them.
Drackvor  [author] 7 Mar, 2013 @ 12:46pm 
Updated: a clause installed to force portal usage and thus condemming a cube to die! MUHAHAHA! Mood3rd! EVIL WILL PREVAIL!
mood3rd 6 Mar, 2013 @ 2:14pm 
how I laughed :)
well said.
of course, due to the title, you need to stop this.
but remember, we need the 1 cube.
Drackvor  [author] 6 Mar, 2013 @ 1:39pm 
no problem, i realised when i said it that it was probably just the slightly twisted way my mind works that made me think of it as a "kill" when you leave something behind, most people at best would call it abandonment...but me OH NO not only are you abandoning the poor cube but you are leaving it there to DIE! a horrible painful death of starvation and loneliness...the death of a broken heart because you left it there you mean GIT! yeah I am talking to you the one who left it there to wither away into non-existence...but then along comes Mood3rd the kind hearted knight who finds a way to save the doomed cube and bring it back to a room where other cubes and edgeless safety cubes reside, but i will find a way to defeat that kind hearted Mood3rd...Evil will prevail and YOU WILL CHOOSE! :D

thanks for explaining the kill area.
you can kill a cube with a fizzler or goo or accidently sometimes while it touches a panel or even with a piston. oh, & of couse re-spawn.
so this is why I did not get it.
Drackvor  [author] 6 Mar, 2013 @ 1:32pm 
hmm ok, ill look into that and see if i can place a fizzler somewhere that would prevent people from doing that :) ta for letting me know

I left a portal near the 2nd cube & portaled back, from the chamber with the funels & sphere.
Drackvor  [author] 4 Mar, 2013 @ 8:01am 
Thank you Jade, I am glad you had fun, I think i made and re-made most of that map over the course of about 2 weeks or so before I finally thought that it was polished enough to publish, oh and Mood3d, when i said kill area, i meant the area you leave a cube to "die" I always thought of it as the are you "kill" the cube and thus "kill area" :)
Jade BGE 3 Mar, 2013 @ 4:57pm 
I liked the first part especially, figuring I had to get past the piston platform. The gel confused me for a moment as the ball got completely lost in the gel I didn't see it there. It was fun to play. Thanks for that.
Drackvor  [author] 3 Mar, 2013 @ 2:39pm 
really? how did you get past the sliding panel section to come back for the second cube?
mood3rd 3 Mar, 2013 @ 1:36pm 
I 1st saw the safety sphere in the top of the funel.
if that helps ?
kill area ?
return from where to where, as I took both cubes to every chamber at some point.
when on the 1st 2 buttons, I went to area above angled panel covered in bouncy gel.
then using nearest portable area, went back for 1 cube & bounced with it to funel chamber.
then portaled back for 2nd cube.
then used both & sphere..
Drackvor  [author] 3 Mar, 2013 @ 12:49pm 
the gel wasn't there to be used, if it worked properly, the faith plate bounces the edgless safety cube into the gel, without it being covered, but hiding it!, you can use the faith plate to get there if you wish, but that and the speed gel is just for decoration! if the gel didn't work as intended, i will have to have a look again at how i can get it to work :) and as for the cubes in the kill area, they both have to go there eventually anyway so how they get there shouldnt matter to much, but in the end only one will return. else you cant continue!
mood3rd 3 Mar, 2013 @ 12:17pm 
good map.
I liked the start.
I took a while to move from the entrance area.
good work :)
just read your description & exploit found:
I took 1 cube to the funel area.
then portaled back & got the other, as well.
only used the bouncy gel, that was on the angled panel.
did not use speed gel.
only used Conversion Gel, that was already placed on the wall.
faithplate not needed.
I suggest removing items not going to be used.
then add some puzzle in the funel chamber.
maybe to turn off a fizzler, you may add.
so the player can go from there to the previous chamber,
where the angled panel with bouncy gel was. etc
hope this was helpfull.
