A map with two relatively easy puzzles using FourthReaper's Compressed Smoke Field (a field which blocks the player, but not cubes), set in my custom theme. I tried to build on dialogue in this one, and tried creating a bit of story.

Thank you to Lpfreaky90 for some skybox models, and to josepezdj for button base/signage textures.

I really like your aesthetic style Not to hard puzzle, and nice detail, 4/5, Because: +edit

EDIT:

Spoiler

aaaaand in the last room i didnt needed the funnel at all. all what i did is, going on the button in the laser room, get the cube with 2 portals, now i place the portals for the laser, press the button and place the cube on the door button. Maybe you remove the button for the dropper

Interesting discriminator screen. Got ERR in 4 corners of any of the smoke screen. Ch2 didn't need the funnel at all... I assume this is a test for another map...?

Oh right...I completely forgot the cube was falling onto a white floor :notwant: I'll go and address these errors now.

EDIT: Turns out pakrat was getting confused because the fizzler model was in the portal2_dlc2 directory, so it thought it was a stock model. I've fixed it up now, though, plus I improved the puzzle so that you need the funnel.

I apologize for the mediocre first instance of this map, but hopefully it's better now :lol:

Sry srs bsnss

And i also dont need the funnel after the update, i just do the same like before
(replacing the dropper doesnt help, you need to remove the dropper button)

:angrysquare: ach. I might just use stock fizzlers.

I'll have to revise the layout to prevent that solution. Should get it this time!

EDIT: Have you ever had just one of those days? Fortunately the puzzle should be fixed and I highly doubt there'll be any issues with the fizzler. Fingers crossed...
