Well I think the first thing I would like to do with Hammer is some kind of real time travel mechanism... I mean not just some tricks with world portals transporting the player in another room with a "future" style or a "old" style... I would like to make a real time travel : so that when you go back in time, the other versions of yourself will reproduce the exact actions you already did ^^ Anyway I'm not sure if this will stay a dream forever or if this is even possible :p

Eventually, I hope you'll make a map in Hammer. I would really like to see what you could do with it.

Sure! If you look for challenging maps, check the collections made by Sheridan ;)

Anyway, THIS is the expected solution including weird invisible laser :p So maybe you should remove the link but keep the screenshot so that people can find it if they are really desperate :p

@BILL if you like his tests, you should try mine. Geneosis would recommend them, too!

I know, I know ^^ But some of my mpas became really popular even without Hammer so I don't really worry about that XD

And he giving more cool stuffs =) LIke use of turn off gravity and more like that =)
UserUserovich 3 Sep, 2012 @ 10:00am 
He really hard, I know, but people really more interested in maps created with help of POrtal 2 Authoring tools =) They more popular then maps which created with help of Puzzle maker =) But it spend a lot of time to learn use him =P I know it, really =)

Also I think that if I start using Hammer, it could take forever for me to create a map with so many possibilities XD
Geneosis  [author] 3 Sep, 2012 @ 9:54am 
Well I don't use Hammer... Mainly because of lazyness XD
Also I decided when I started mapping that I will use Hammer only when I will have no more ideas using only the items of the PeTI editor ;) So this includes improvements like BEE mod and carl's mod to change style of the maps in the PeTI ^^

Sorry buddy but I appear to be solving this map without the need for gl-glitches..........Actually im not sorry. SUCK IT!!!! xP Yes I have screenshots.
Geneosis  [author] 3 Sep, 2012 @ 6:09am 
Fixed a few more exploits...
UnableRogue 3 Sep, 2012 @ 5:28am 
I think you need to up the difficulty to 43 :P
UnableRogue 3 Sep, 2012 @ 5:27am 
Muhahaha >:D
Geneosis  [author] 3 Sep, 2012 @ 5:09am 
Well i just thought about another potential fail... Will see how you do it and fix it if it's possible ^^
Geneosis  [author] 3 Sep, 2012 @ 5:04am 
Map updated! I think I fixed all the issues now ^^ And only the expected solution will work ;) Lets try it again please!

Here is my screenshot. According to your comment below, this is not the expected solution. I would like to see that "invisible" thing, though. Please provide a screenshot.

That lasers are somewhat adjusted to hit receptacles is something I already knew about. If you interrupted the first part of the laser in Powerhouse once you were finished, it is possible, that the laser will not come all the way back, because there might be a part somewhere, where it got readjusted.
Geneosis  [author] 3 Sep, 2012 @ 3:50am 
Well sadly this is not a glitch, this is a feature they implemented in the ingame editor : if a laser go through your portals, and finish close to a receptor, the laser will be automatically redirected to the receptor ^^"
And, I'm curious to see your solution if you have a screenshot ^^
UnableRogue 2 Sep, 2012 @ 5:18pm 
I solved it another way anyway. Did you get a surprise when you read my status about this map?? ;-)
UnableRogue 2 Sep, 2012 @ 5:09pm 
Im not sure if this laser directioning is a glitch or it is how you designed it. This laser "glitch" happens everytime I interupt the laser. Here is the picture:
