[QUOTE=Inspector Jones;29818232]How can I make an elevator to begin/end my levels? The wiki has nothing listed for Elevators, so I assume it must be ungodly hard.[/QUOTE]
Use instances.
There's a entity called func_instance, spawn one and choose a VMF in the instance folder found in the Portal 2/SDK Content folder

When I make a world portal with size 128*64, it's much bigger then a brush of the same size.
Does anyone know why this happens?
EDIT: never mind, got it working (width and lenght are doubled ;))
some of you may remember back when we were still doing the alien swarm sdk i made this map.

i got bored and i decided to turn the dial up a bit and send this test chamber a couple hundred years into the future

i guess the old testing facilities were closer to the surface then we thought, sorry for the big pictures media tags aren't working for steam screenshots for whatever reason.
giant portals
Does anybody know how I can solve these graphic glitches?

Multicore rendering was off.
I've got a problem!
I made a point_viewcontrol parented to a func_tracktrain, with some path tracks and stuff following this tutorial: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9-WSDDu14c[/media] (obviously adapting it to portal 2 as I go along)
But the point_viewcontrol just starts outside the map, away from where I put it. I can get a glimpse of some panels at the start but other than that it's wrong.

Red: The point_viewcontrol
Green: The func_tracktrain it's attached to
Dark purple: The path_tracks
Light purple: The logic_relay controlling it
Blue: I forgot why I outlined this trigger as it is irrelevant.
Grey with arrow: Where I think the camera is going in game. Outside of the map.
i fixed it up, optimized and it's a puzzle now too

I like the soft and calm lightning.
More content for you guys. This time it's my fourth test chamber!

It looks like you have light entities right outside of the lightcover models though. If so, you should put them inside or just use the texlights.

Seriously. I'm trying to raise my self-esteem here.

How do I make starting/ending elevators? Theres nothing on them on either wiki.
[QUOTE=IrishBandit;29822139]How do I make starting/ending elevators? Theres nothing on them on either wiki.[/QUOTE]
There's an instance you can use.
Why does this happen? It started after I moved in the GCF's into the alien swarm folder to map through that but it still happens in the official sdk and in all other source sdks. I have verified and re downloaded all of them and no difference. Yellow is where the brush should be.

Theres a bunch of elevators and frames and I have no idea how to input triggers into them.
Can someone help me create panels? I am trying to follow the guide on the wikia but I am missing something. I've created the prop_dynamic and am trying to apply the model but there is no tab when I double click it.

Is anyone here interested in using cores in their maps? I'm willing to write up a tutorial if anyone wants one.

Yes, they look at you.
Tutorial would be nice please :3:
I have a room full of white walls, and I want to change certain sections of the walls to be metal. (Can't place portals on it)
What's the best way to do this?
[QUOTE=Jcorp;29824322]Tutorial would be nice please :3:[/QUOTE]
Sure, I'll whip one up in a moment, just need to finish one last thing on my map.
I can't seem to get levels with elevators to compile, and if I use the instance of the test chamber door frame the chamber door sticks out of the wall on one side or the other
