[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/YwcRD.jpg[/IMG] If this is against the rules (I didn't think so, I read all the rules) feel free to ban, lock this thread, kick me in the stomach, shoot me, put me in an infinite portal loop, or just be rude to me. Use this thread to ask for [B]PERSONAL[/B] maps. I will then make them. That's pretty much it! Except the rules, read them too! [B]NOW TAKING PORTAL 1 REQUESTS![/B] because I don't have anything to show you. Rules 1. Don't post a half-assed idea 2. Don't ask for a map that will be used in a mod, PM me if you want that. 3. Don't expect a map that will be equal to or greater than a Valve map. 4. Don't ask for a map for any other game! I CAN NOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH! 5. Have a couple of sketches so I know what you want it to look like. 6. Explain each puzzle with [B]extreme[/B] detail. 7. If you want it to have some custom textures, you supply them. 8. I don't have to make your map, if I feel it will be too challenging, I won't do it. DON'T LET THAT DISCOURAGE YOU! 9. Please be patient, I don't get paid for this, I do this in my free-time. FAQ Q: Can my idea use panels? A: Short answer, yes. long answer, yes but if you can have it another way, I prefer the other way. Q. Why do you use CAPS instead of [B]bold[/B] most of the time? A. Because it's faster! [B]TL;DR YOU ASK FOR A MAP AND I MAKE IT[/B]
[del]You should explain what you're doing more thoroughly, because for people who sort of skim text (me) they might miss the key points that give it away! Are you asking people to suggest maps for you to make? Suggest maps for anyone to view the thread and make? [i]This is just me, perhaps I'm just retarded and missed it, but I had to read through it two times before I understood what was happening[/i][/del] negated with tl;dr You should also show some examples, so people will [b]know[/b] the stuff you make is of high quality, so they'll want to suggest to you a map. Also, make a pretty banner. That'll really sell the thread. Anyhow, have fun guys! Hopefully this goes well, and some fellas get themselves a pretty map.
THERE NOW I HAVE A BANNER!
[QUOTE=atttapi0;34250335]THERE NOW I HAVE A BANNER![/QUOTE] It's decent enough
Orrrr we could use the mapping thread and an actual website designed for Portal maps! That sounds a lot better than a thread made by some kid with a name that can't be pronounced.

Oh and the mapping section is for GMod maps, Portal 2 maps don't work with GMod. And for your last argument, this is the Valve game and mods forum, this relates to Valve games.

-snip- I need think this through more.
I'd like an example of your work first
make a test map with all the different styles of maps shown off e.g. destroyed, clean, bts, Cave, destroyed clean, under construction
[QUOTE=Conro101;34264003]make a test map with all the different styles of maps shown off e.g. destroyed, clean, bts, Cave, destroyed clean[/QUOTE] And Peer Review.
[QUOTE=ColossalSoft;34264921]And Peer Review.[/QUOTE] yeah that too

[QUOTE=LilRobot;34265399]i thought this was a place like the collab where we could put up our maps for download [i]now[/i] where will i put up all of these unplayed maps?![/QUOTE] You know, it [B]could[/B] be made. I am too lazy to start off and it isn't that good of an idea anyway.
Gah, well no one could give me any ideas. Are yah proud of yourself? I'M ASKING FOR PEOPLE'S IDEAS FOR AN ACTUAL, PLAYABLE, FUN, PUZZLE IDEA.

Well, I know you specify Portal 1... but have you ever considered trying to recreate Portal 2's original "Deathmatch" 2-player mode? Basically, the idea is two players would try and use their portals to hit each other with bombs, like in the Wheatley fight. I realize Portal 2 is a completely different beast than Portal 1, but hey, that's something I'd like to see.

[QUOTE=atttapi0;34299249]You don't think that I haven't already made tons of test maps?[/QUOTE] You haven't showed us anything yet.
[QUOTE=haxorfox;34299407]You haven't showed us anything yet.[/QUOTE] Because they're test maps, not worth showing. Hey, all I'm asking for is some ideas so I can make stuff. Why do you all care so much about my skill? God, I'm not stupid, I can make a decent map.

Everything in the map works, and I know there aren't any of those light to indicate what a button does, but I was too lazy to do them. YOU HAPPY NOW?
There's like An entire section for this.
