never would have thought to do what was done in the middle of the map. good one!!

Thank you. Unfortunately, like in many maps, F6 is your best friend. At least there's that otherwise there'd be a ton of maps I would have never finished due to frustration of repeating everything. :-)

clever map, shame i needed so many quick saves :(

Thanks you too for the map! Exellent job! :)

Thank you!

Nicely done. That was very clever! I see where I could prevent that with 1 additional element, but it's too old to fix now. Thanks again!

Good job. Thanks for playing!

Ok, I did it, barely restraining order not to see the video..)

Haha, thanks for playing! Yeah, was wondering what in the world you did. Nice job finding an alternate solution.

Never mind. I just watched your walkthrough and it turned out that I solved it a completely different way than you did.

Okay, I finally got it but... I don't understand why the upper two fizzlers stayed off even when the cube wasn't on the button. It seemed to happen after I pressed the unlabelled pedestal button that activated the light bridge. I'm not sure if I needed that to happen in order to solve the test, but if so, it's not really kosher because there's no indication that the button will do that. Also, setting the side-by-side portals was very difficult and took me several tries.

Thanks!

Ok great one, that was fun

No, the grate glitch or any glitch is not part of this solution. The lightbridge is also not part of the solution, but is there at that point if you screwed up to prevent you from having to do everything over. If you're still working on it then keep going, otherwise, the walkthrough is above as you know.

Hm, tried this now and just noticed two things: a light bridge that is not possible to activate unless it's by the unmarked pedestal button near exit, and the fact that the cube goes through the grating next to the grating (couldn't believe that :)) . I'm guessing they're not part of the solution?

Ok, after trying this for the 6th time and still walking in circles I watched the video. I would not have come up with that funnel placement.

Yep, you got it. Thanks again!

Guess this is the intended solution: https://www.dropbox.com/s/h6djt28e6hxs3k4/acrosstheriver5.dem

Glad to help, your videos are great feedback for me ;)

OK, easy fix on the getting trapped part. Thanks for pointing that stupid mistake out. Also, you can now no longer funnel with the cube and then throw it on the button.

The upper button you said you think can solve it without it is correct. It just gives a little breathing room and a little shortcut for once you get that far in case you mess up.

Anything, thanks to you, I updated it again and you can't complete it exactly like you did before. Mainly the cube tossing thing.

Thanks again for all the help on this.

Still don't think this is intended... https://www.dropbox.com/s/te9gsypun7i16hw/acrosstheriver4.dem Also you can get trapped in that lower area.

Just did final update and if it's broken by anyone then it stays that way this time. :-D

Thanks again. Man, I left holes everywhere. lol. Deserves me right for doing that tired.

Had another go, my two runs (managed to fall in the goo ;D): https://www.dropbox.com/s/hamblpxznb9uegi/acrosstheriver2.dem https://www.dropbox.com/s/ww19f9kzph639ha/acrosstheriver3.dem

First one I'm running around doing random things :) second one I actually solve it. Not sure if it's intended though...

8th interation of the same thing. This has been a true WIP. lol

Thanks, man. I appreciate the feedback and dem as always!

Nice map, just what I needed for a short break. :) Hope you don't suspect me...I played it and have a demo to prove it: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ju377yu6mv0mzt6/acrosstheriver.dem The puzzle is good and I found no shortcuts.
