Got to the blue button! But seriously, fuck making a video of that. Was I right in

Spoiler
getting myself bouncing between floor portals with the funnel switched to orange, shooting a portal into the funnel at the peak of the bounce and then quickly shooting one at the wall opposite to carry me over?
That was all I could come up with....

Now I must sleep.

I've also got to the blue button. The way I

Spoiler
got the reflectocube in the blue room
doesn't seem to me to be intended.

Spoiler
I had the blue portal at the end of the blue funnel, and the orange portal on the floor of the red room. Then proceed as follows: grab the cube and hold it through the portal such that it's some distance below the blue portal in the funnel area, while you yourself are crouching near the orange portal in the red room.
Then release the cube and immediately shoot the blue portal on to the red room wall, before the cube can make its way through the portal. So now it should be trapped at the end of the funnel in the blue room, and the player can repeat the steps to get to that area and place the cube on the button.

@Xtreger - how did that help you get to the blue button? You needed two cubes for your method?

Yes, I used both cubes. But I don't know whether one is sufficient.

@El Farmerino Yes that is the intended final move of the blue room. It's little bit tricky and probably the hardest move to pull off in the normal solution.

@Xtreger Getting a cube through like that is not intended but I don't know how can I fix that without messing something else up. There is an intended way to get the cube from red to blue but you won't need it yet.

Here is my solution video for the blue room:

That sure is a nice map you got there. It would be a shame if someone broke it.

I did it with one. :-P

Ha, that's good; was getting a bit worried there might be more of that sort of stuff to come....

EDIT: One day later, and here's how I've progressed:

Got to the green button and activated it. Inspected the centre tower thing but didn't get very far. Headed back to the green room and managed to reach this position (potential spoiler):

Once again it's time for bed, but I'm looking forward to tomorrow's session - got a few ideas on how to proceed...

Man this map is indeed hard! I get about half an hour or about an hour every one or two days to try my hand at this, and I know at this rate this will take several days.

Anyway I got the reflectocube into the green room via an unintended way (the one I described earlier) and now I'm just running around on the light bridge :lol:

BTW Shakky, don't take it personally, but at many points the glass is not clearly visible and that causes a problem in assessing the chamber. I've had to noclip around to actually plan ahead; not that it's a bad thing, but the glass issue causes some confusion at times.

@El Farmerino Looking good. Now the real challenge starts!

I'd guess you did the green room the intended way but would you mind making a short summary of what you did?

@Xtreger I do see why that is annoying. I will try to fix that as soon as possible.

To be honest, it's hard to tell. I didn't even drop the cube first time round, for example - I simply rode the double lightbridge round to the exit. With a kind of sideways jump and shoot technique you can get on top of it from pretty much anywhere in the map...

Shakky, I think I'm going in the wrong direction again. In the blue room, I got the cube in the room with the funnel direction changer button (not activated yet). I found a way to get back to the

Spoiler
red room with a blue funnel
, but I don't see how that helps me any at this point. Am I off course again?
