Quote from RogerL on March 19, 2013, 8:25 pmWell, I did manage to get the cube on the button to deactivate the laser field and got myself to the exit, but now there seems to be no way to open the exit door. Pretty discouraging to do all that work only to find I did it all wrong. But this whole map has been like that: death after needless death, failed attempt after failed attempt. Everything seems to be meant to punish trying various options or alternatives, which, for me, is one of the joys of Portal. I didn't enjoy this map at all.

Now you should find a way to get the cube back in the funnel when you're near the exit. It's not easier task I must admit. I'm realy sorry you found the map not funny.
EDIT. The map is updated. Fixed some mapping flaws and Quatrus' unintended way for room 1.

Quote from RogerL on March 20, 2013, 9:36 amHmmm, well maybe I gave up too easily; I'll take a look at the ending some more. But if I have done everything as intended, then I skipped many of the elements in the second room, such as the faith plates -- is that also intended?

Quote from RogerL on March 20, 2013, 10:51 amMy solution for the second room involved [spoiler]pushing the cube onto some gel to get it to bounce into the funnel. I then followed it into the funnel, portaled the wall, then moved the funnel to get the cube to land on the button to deactivate the laser field[/spoiler] while I rode the funnel to the exit.

EDIT: Video removed. Unintended solution blocked.
