[Coop] Gelocity Stage 2

Page 1 of 3Next

It's been a looong time...
...but finally here is my second portal 2 map. :)
Gelocity Stage 2 is a race track (surprise) but a little more complicated and more dynamic than the first one.
So if you enjoyed [url=http://forums.thinking.withportals.com/downloads.php?view=detail&df_id=1284]Gelocity[/url], you might like this as well.

Installation instructions:
1. Extract mp_coop_gelocity_stage_2 to your Portal 2 maps folder (...SteamAppscommonportal 2portal2maps).
2. In Coop Hub open developer console and type "changelevel mp_coop_gelocity_stage_2".
3. Race!

Note: It takes a moment to paint the race track with propulsion gel.
So if you experience performance issues, just wait a minute before starting.

Special thanks to Nerzl for playtesting.

Updates:
v1.03
- some optimizations to reduce entdata
v1.02
- fixed animated panels
- changed some scripted scenes
v1.01
- fixed some ambient sounds
- level transition to the lobby should work properly now

Good job on the ping-tool detectors. Good way to use them.

5/5 stars for great racing fun!

I am already sure that i'm gonna love this. I was just playing with a buddy the first gelocity map and when we quit, i saw this. Great timing! :)

It's number one on our priority list when we get to play again. Thanks for giving us another race map!

This was tons of fun - again I laughed so hard - much better than the first! I loved all the new things you did - especially with the ping tool! It was much easier to follow this time too. We will be playing this often - too much fun! Thanks for making another great race map! Well done!

Trying to load this up as a split-screen (ss_map) to check it out... Somehow though this map is disabling the console. I can't even bring up the main menu to exit. Must use task manager to kill portal process to exit. :(

Does this always happen when you load the map via "ss_map"? Or did it only happen once?
Some weeks ago I had the same problem but with a different map. Thought this was a Portal 2 bug...
Anybody else with this problem?

Nope. Still haven't played with my buddy so i decided to try it this way. Everything worked fine for me. About the map, as i expected, a masterpiece. Loved the new obstacles/traps, the use of the ping tool etc.

Don't know if you plan to make more race maps, but seeing you really have the skill to make great ones and in case you decide to do more, how about some central hub with entrances to these cool maps? Something like baca25 did with the Amazing Race. And if/when you make a new map, you can update this hub too. Just a suggestion.

Anyway, thanks again for the map. Keep it up!

I played it with my friend and this map is good :D Good design, funny puzzles and lots of ways to stop other players. And that's what I like in this map - you can stop another player, so both players have same chance to win.

I tried to run it with ss_map too and no problem.

Awesome map! anyone want to vs? ;)
We even tried putting the host timescale to 2, talk about fast!... I dont even want to play regular portal now because it would seem so slow :(



Also, I made a map just for you! Sunset

Only happens with this map. And it happens every time. I loaded up a lot of others (as well as Gelocity v1) prior so I can test this, but when I load stage 2, the console will not open... It "Flashes" for about a second, but that's it.

If it helps, I also have to load the map twice. First time I try, it won't load... I'll have to pay more attention to it next time and give you a clip of what it says... Loading a second time and it loads, but no console... :(

Still haven't done a "true" coop with it yet though.
