I dont know if this has been posted yet. I found this in system wars. Very good maps based off the flash game.

Yeah been playing these.

They're fantastic. They're not just more generic maps either. A lot of thought went into them.

If you want more portal you're insane not to download these.

Oh yeah, I was playing these earlier today. They're great! It's like downloading Portal 2 since it takes about as long to finish this as it does the entire game of Portal, and they're just as good quality as the original maps too. I'm currently stuck on the last room, but I'll get back to it a little later.

Ok, I downloaded the rar file but what program do I open it with. I've tried many different things but no success. Is there a certain file I must save the file in, if so which one? What do I need to do?

Cool. Haven't played Portal since its first release, and I've been wanting something new and cool to play.

This seems like it will do nicely.

On a side note, any good tutorials online for making Portal maps for the terminally lazy? I would like to try making a few maps, but I like to do as little work as possible.

You need to download WinRAR

There is a readme file in the .rar that has instructions to use the map.

Those are the websites that I used, although despite the fact they are very good, it wasn't enough to overcome my laziness.

You can also download common prefabs (doors, cube droppers, buttons, ect.) here:

Probably a stupid question here, but I gotta ask, I have the nVidia Portal: First Slice, which is a 10 level demo, will the maps work with this, or do I need the full version of Portal? I am going to get it, but I was waiting a while, as there are other games I am more interested in spending my money on first.

Sweet, thanks for the head up on these maps. I was a disappointed when I reached the end of Portal (I wanted it to go on and on), I look forward to some more puzzley goodness.

I got these, but couldn't even get past the first one, I beat the game in like 2-3 hours and also beat some challenges, but wtf, I guess my game is getting rusty.

Really good find though, thanks for free goodness.

For whatever reason, my computer's performance in the very first room was a little...off. But it cleared up afterwards. Just a heads-up in case anyone thinks something is up. It may be just my strange hardware configuration.

cool thanks. Hopefully these really are smartly designed that make you think, and not just some basic rooms with unreasonably difficult expectations that are designed to make you angry more than make you think. Or hopefully not rehashes of some of the things we have already done with added ridiculous time limits.

I'm bumping this after having played alot of this impressive mod and recommend it wholeheartedly. Kudos to the talented creator for making some genuinely challenging puzzles, most of which are on par or even exceed puzzles in the original game. There are a few which are crazy difficult. And you do often have to rely on smart quicksaving, or else you will either find yourself stuck in a room with no way out or have to reload from autosave point. But usually a seemingly difficult situation turns out to be not that difficult as much as it requires some good ole fashioned thinking and logic. Which is a good thing. This mod adds tremendous value to the Portal game.
