Heh, I feel a little bad for posting this now :p

Either way, awesome map pack, solid 6 out of 5... Like zivi says I'm off to find some intended solutions - replay value ftw. Thanks Neco!

@zivi:
I feel pretty dense for not seeing that way now >.<

Edit:
@Neco: Gimme a toot if you want these routes pulled down , or with a disclaimer after bugfixes or whatever. I don't mind at all.

Ok here are the videos finally. While waiting for these to upload I dive in to the third stage and I think I found the intended way to solve the laser puzzle. I'm going to upload that now and then start solving the second part of the stage.

First stage:
[spoiler]ehxAngHydk0[/spoiler]

Second stage:
[spoiler]2CW-dhkp15Y[/spoiler]

Third stage:
[spoiler]leL15gsmjyQ[/spoiler]

(I'm pretty sure that this is the intended way because I was going to make a puzzle like that myself as a part of my next map.)

Fourth stage: still not solved.

Edit. Couldn't solve rest of third stage without ninja jumping. I might try again tomorrow but I have to stop now. Great map!

Another edit. Neco was asking how the glitch I mentioned earlier happened. I was at the same spot as in my part 1 video at 2.45. This was during my first playthrough and I had brought the last cube with me. I accidently dropped it to my left and it got stuck on top of the already turned of blockers and I couldn't get it down.

Nice! I tried but never managed that ninja jump to the lower platform to skip the first part.

Impressive! I'd never have come up with that.

Love the elegance of the first solution... and that wee ninja move at the end of the 2nd ^^

Just finished Part 3 but [spoiler]I didn't use the laser or laser receiver in the main room at all, although I spent ages trying to. Are they not actually supposed to be necessary to finish the puzzle?[/spoiler]

I might be able to upload a demo of how I did it tomorrow, but... 3am here...

I wondered about that, too. Eventually, I noclipped to hold the cube steady: When the laser receiver thing is activated for a couple of seconds, the fizzler at the surface opposite to the funnel gets turned off. I assume that's the intended surface to use to continue to the last part of the map. But till now I didn't find a way to get the laser steady long enough.

Hi there guys and gals,

please give me some time to upload a new version with some fixes tomorrow evening.
You already found some intended as well as (too) many unintended solutions there.
I can live with all those creative ones especially with Shakky's incredible balancing act (unbelievable!! ) - but I think that at least skipping whole parts of the puzzle should be prevented.

No matter what, if I should upload anything in the future again, it'll be a WIP first - that's for sure!

Sorry!

Neco I'm curious. Is the way I solved the first puzzle of the third map the intended way?

Now you're pulling my leg, huh??!!
I wished that darn cube would have crushed her (you!)

PS: Just about to compile and embed the materials/textures....
