[SP] The Ledge

PreviousPage 3 of 14Next

Okay, I seriously need some help with this one. I'm still stuck at Part 1 puzzle 1...

Spoiler
From what I understand I'll need to put the first cube on the button in the metal "house" on your right (seen from the entrance). I'll need to get the cube in from the roof since all the other sides are blocked one way or another. I'll need to stand on the button inside the house or the cube will be dissolved by the field. So I'll need to make the cube follow me somehow, but my portals disappear once I go through the field. So I have to get the cube go through the portals somehow, jump through the field once it out of the portal, go down and press the button, disabling the field before the cube reaches it and then I'll have the cube? I'm guessing you're supposed to activate that button first since it's marked with one dot...

Maybe there is an easier way to it, but if it's this complicated then I'll have no chance in hell to pass the other chambers xD

@Logic: I might not have done it the absolutely correct way (see posts above), but at least my first step was right:

Spoiler
Try to find a way to get both the cube and yourself up on the highest platform. You'll have to make use of the funnel and the timer surface in the middle for that.

The exit door of the final laser room was glitchy. Since I don't spoil anything by adding it here, I attached a screenshot.

I always put a delay between opening the door and the areaportal in the trigger's output but obviously it isn't long enough. Might depend on the hardware/performance; I've never experienced that problem in that way. Might do it wrong, though. I will try to find a workaround for that.

As for your solution I have to take a closer look at that this evening. At first read it doesn't sound anything like the intended solution, though.

In room 274 I made a stupid mistake: Dots 3 and 4 are meant to be solved the other way around. Will fix that ASAP.

heyy, how do you get to put the cube in the X button in the first map? not only its impossible to get the cube there because of that kind of fizzler that doesnt allow cubes to pass through, but also the button is wrapped in some metal bars that i think the cube wont fit in, hellp

Wow, these are extremely hard... haven't solved any yet.

Yes! Finally did Chamber 1! This has to be one of my happiest Portal moments ever:

The rest was comparatively straightforward, I thought. I really liked how the last bit worked out. Sadly I've got things to do, or I'd go straight onto the next three....

Pretty sure what I did was the intended way, as aside from taking a few attempts to

Spoiler
reach the top with the cube
it was relatively easy to execute.

Of course not. As no other player has experienced that issue before you, that might be caused by something related to your game, or your pc...

I was thinking that would be impossible too for a while. But it's not of course. First hint:

Spoiler
There is a portal-able surface in there.
Second hint:
Spoiler
It can only be shot from one of the four sides.

Anyone planning on uploading a playthrough? I can't even complete the first puzzle in the first chamber... -.-
