I've been signed up here for a week, and hasn't known where to begin. I wish to create a mod for the original Portal because supposedly it's easier(and it's the only game I have). I wish to later share my mapping experience with you fellow citizens. Hello, and peace out.

Portal 2 mapping is a lot easier then Portal 1 mapping!
And if you don't have portal 2: buy it now from steam! It's on sale! only $9,99!

Hi I'm not a mapper and I don't map too often (only for videos) I create animations, models, sounds, and textures

I use Autodesk Softimage 2012, and Autodesk 3ds Max 2012
My weapon of choice? 3ds Max Character Animation System.

Hi,

I'm new here. I don't even have Hammer but I've played through quite a few (and plan on playing many, many more) custom maps.

Consider myself to be a skilled player (have VERY good times on a few Portal 1 challenge chambers) but I know NOTHING about map making. Would like to learn at some point but we'll see...

Anyway, I look forward to playing and providing feedback on some of you guys' maps.

My original introduction:

It's a New Guy!

Response to lpfreaky90:

Sorry, other forums I go to have a board to do this in and I got confused. Thanks for pointing the n00b in the right direction.

Yeah, I see that. Like I said, I'll check those out later but seems unlikely because the Portal 2 Puzzle Editor will be coming out. Can't wait for that to come out.

Some maps I do like (single player) are Cubi, Angrybombs, 12 Angry Tests, and Patent Pending just to name a few. I haven't played much of the co-op puzzles because I don't have any friends that have this game that are as active as me. They are usually busy doing other things.

Forgot to mention I am more of an avid Nintendo gamer; new and old. I prefer them over any one else. A few exceptions have been made to this rule because I love the Portal series.

I'm so happy I could cry. *Thinks of 02*

Oh crap, never mind. But it's nice to hear from a Nintendo fan.

Hello. I am iSmile02, I am a new user. I've been on the TWP forums for a while now, and I have just now decided to make an account and rate some maps (Maybe make some maps of my own!)

So yeah, I know I'm gonna hve a great time here, gonna make some friends. I hope there's no.. you know, "idiots" here. I'd like to get to know you all.

Well that's it for me, gonna start looking at maps. See ya!

Hallo little/big mappers!
I'm going to introduce myself now that I'm starting to learn hammer.
I'm here to discuss about portal too (notice: portal too = portal two ).
And, eventually, I will upload maps (maybe next year, because hammer is breaking my head).

So hello all and see us next post :broken lol ._. :

Quote from BlackDeathDraco on May 2, 2012, 9:32 pm

Hello, my name is BlackDeathDraco, BDD if you wish to shorten it. I had been lurking around for the past few months to find interesting maps. I have both Portal 1 and 2 though Steam though I wish I got the PS3 version of Portal 2, free PC version and all, but eh, can't be helped.

I have tried using hammer a few times but I still must take the time to explore it properly (despite being lazy about it). I finally felt like popping out in attempt to join the community and attempt to make and play more maps, maybe even actually submit maps.

I am an avid gamer, I like to play RPGs on many different consoles, I have all of them except for the X-Box consoles... I do like most puzzle games, most adventure games, and only a few shooters. As for sports and war games, I do not really like them.

I am one of those rare guys who are Hearing Impaired which means I understand much less of what is vocally said then what most people with normal hearing can, which means I prefer maps that have subtitles or just voiceless.

TLDR:
Short name: BDD
Hearing Level: low
Hammmer wield level: Novice
Likes: most types of console or computer games
Dislikes: sport games and war games
