With the release of the official mapping tools, I have gone ahead and changed the header link to the Portal 2 Mapping portal at the Valve Developer Community wiki.

Awesome, I wonder if theres anything new with hammer and stuff.

Currently working on Darksiders 3.

I'm a noob at creating maps, but I want to learn. I'm already having trouble compiling the example maps. I figured I just go File > Run Map but I get an error in the Windows cmd prompt and it stops.

Looks like tools mode for Portal 2 isn't in the SDK. Thats a shame considering thats what I was looking forward to the most, guess we'll have to wait for the finalized SDK no that one.

Also I see this is your first post iKonakona, you might want to refer to the Valve Developer community for learning how to map.
