[SP] The Descent
Quote from SkyFerret on April 14, 2014, 11:02 pmThis is my first published Hammer map. It is slightly long, so if you like long maps I promise you'll like this one. you first have to work your way through an industrial section, and old office and an abandoned factory before getting to the test chambers. It's not just a continuous walk, so you'll have to use your portal gun to get through, and the level of difficulty increases as you go. And don't forget your portal gun upon starting. You'll see what the descent is about half way through. I'm still kind of new to Hammer, so I'm sure mistakes will be made.
Enjoy.
Note: Upon map spawn, the radio should be playing that jingle we're all familiar with. it was working, but now it's not. I replaced the ambient_generic with a new one, but it still wont play. I did everything I could to get it to work but it wont. Also some dual sliding doors animate correctly on close, but some don't. It's as if the source code has a mind of its own.

Quote from RogerL on April 15, 2014, 12:43 pmThis was an excellent map. [spoiler]I liked the red-herring fling[/spoiler], though the turret in that area seemed out of place. Two small oddities that I noticed: a funnel ride to set up a fling just stops for no apparent reason and the timer button didn't seem to have a timer sound attached to it. But the puzzles were very nicely done and the look of the places was very good. Thanks for mapping (in Hammer)!
This was an excellent map.

Thanks for mapping (in Hammer)!I was going to have the tick tock sound on the timer, but Hammer is really busting my chops when it comes to sound. Some of them just don't work. Or, they'll work one day and gone the next. But as for turrets being in an industrial area, you just never know where one will show up. LOL.
Thanks for playing.
