P.S Blue Portals: Refresh should be for Portal 2 or Blue Portals 2

There is many reasons why we are doing Blue Portals: Refresh as an addon for Blue Portals. One of them is to celebrate the anniversary of the mod. Everything will make sense in due time.

The more you give, the less appreciated it will be received.

Here is a remake of a map I made a little less than a year ago for Portal 1 that I never got around to releasing, so I figured its about time I got around to doing so. So I am adding it to the release of "Secondary Fire". So enjoy this image:

PS. I've always wanted to try changing the font color, and it is AMAZING!

Federal regulations require me to warn you that this next test chamber... is looking pretty good. :lol:

I got a new map coming up. I'll post a picture later. It involve a little more freedom accessing observation rooms and other non-testing areas.

Crazy is as crazy does.

Looking pretty good, but got one hint for you: where those yellow pillar things join one another, put in one of the models that go there, i think theyre called something like pillar_join or similar.

I think in terms of boolean variables. Generally, it makes things easier.

I tried that, but the lighting was goofed up enough that it looked better without.

My first map with under 5 minutes of playtime from start to finish. I haven't learned decals and overlays yet but I get the idea from reading the wikis.

The map lacks polish and is too short so I won't be uploading it but PM me if you want to play it.

You should search overlay called 'tideline', place them to just little higher where your toxic goo surface goes(you know how to do it when you see the texture), it makes it look waaay more interesting and better.

Oh hey, thanks!! I don't suppose there's a wiki page or tutorial out there just on how to make a map pretty, is there? I get the idea but I don't know how I would have ever found out about something like the above.
