[Sp] The Second Exodus (v2.3)

==============================================================================
IT IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED TO PLAY THIS MAP WITH "SHADER DETAIL" SETTINGS SET UP AT LEAST TO "HIGH" TO FULLY ENJOY IT :p
==============================================================================

This is the map I submitted for the Super Mapping Contest at TWP... but this new version is much more polished, deeply TESTED (hehehe) and also easier! I've taken care of each single step making them firmer than in previous version upon my beta-testers' comments. I have added a new panel in the middle of room 3's ceiling in order to make the final step much easier. And yes, I've packed everything into the file so it should be seen now perfectly :D

It's a MEDIUM-HARD difficulty fling-based map along 3 main chambers. No glitches, ninja movements or crazy things are involved, seriously! Only logic is required and a certain ability to control flinging, that's all.

I've added an easter egg too for those who wants more challenge :wink: It's not so difficult but it's funny to reach! Try!

=================================
OFFICIAL SOLUTION VIDEOS RELEASED

IMPORTANT: for those who feel discouraged or frustrated, first of all, don't be! :D ... and secondly, a video solution ia available, although I'd like to keep it for now unreleased in order to let ppl time to solve it. However, anyone interested in watching it before I release it, just pm me and I'll send, ok? :wink:

ChangeLog
----------

- v2.1: changed the height of a portalable wall that allowed an important unintended movement (thanks Sickle). Added some more tweaks.

- v2.2: changed player model from "Bendy" to "Chell". Added many particles and effects. Fixed the bug on the water reflections when shader details settings are set to "low"/"medium".

- v2.3: minor changes. Removed unintended move for the easter egg part (thanks to comoros94). Added a reflector-cube respawning at room 2 (in order to prevent that the player has to get back to room 1 to solve it again and get the cube back). Fixed a possible player's lock at final steps in dot2 (thanks to Mr. Waterhandle)
