I honestly don't know; the instructor hints worked fine all that time ago, haha. The first chamber requires you to infinite-run in the little gap, then shoot a portal onto the floor so the horizontal momentum becomes vertical. While in the air, shoot a portal at the angled panel, and fling across the acid.

Here I am in 2020, and I can't seem to get the instructor hints to show up. Did something change in the game engine that might have rendered them unusable? I do have "gameinstructor_enable 1", but no hints pop up. Thanks for making this, at any rate, even if it's almost 9 years old. :-) I'm trying to figure out the first chamber without cheating, and so far, nothing's working - I could probably really use the instructor hints! :-#

Slightly tedious, but I love it. the Adventure Sphere test took me a long time tho lol

Rick's Chamber is TOO TOUGH

Fact Sphere: The Adventure Sphere is a blowhard and a coward.

@jtenuto - This map only contains music from Portal 2, so it's all in the game files already.
Wheatleyfan7 Jun 6, 2017 @ 8:51am 
Where did you find the music?

btw press v again to stop nocliping

@sneakierbunny57

go to settings and go to keyboard and click "enable dev console" then press the tild key ~ then type this. bind "v" "noclip" (with the quotes) and then press v and move around and bam! your nocliping! hope this helped :)
SneakierBunny57 Mar 23, 2017 @ 1:45pm 
how do you noclip?
SpAM_CAN  [author] Mar 22, 2017 @ 1:10am 
@sneakierbunny57 - Yes. Just noclip past the first area if you can't figure out the solution.
SneakierBunny57 Mar 21, 2017 @ 3:59pm 
btw did you use hammer?
SneakierBunny57 Mar 21, 2017 @ 3:58pm 
oh well it seems impossebl
SpAM_CAN  [author] Mar 14, 2017 @ 5:55am 
@sneakierbunny57 - It's totally possible, you've just not figured out how to do it.
SneakierBunny57 Mar 13, 2017 @ 5:00pm 
spam when i first go in its impossebl to get over the goo i try and die its impossebl so here something for you always test and see if your chambers are POSSEBL so ya this seems IMPOSSEBL
ouroya Jan 7, 2017 @ 4:54pm 
Great map you have here, although I still can't figure out how to get out of the first room.
SpAM_CAN  [author] Aug 18, 2016 @ 2:20pm 
@Pearl - It's coming along! Gonna take way longer than I expected though. Hooray for life getting in the way of work.

I liked the adventure sphere very much, thanks :D
Nobody No-One Jul 11, 2015 @ 7:23am 
Recently replayed this map. The space sphere part is very strange in that the laser cube on the button that I had to lift up to hit the laser rarely actually hits the catcher which is annoying. BTS area of adventure sphere felt quite unusual in that every time I've played it I've done things differently.
wildgoosespeeder Feb 12, 2015 @ 11:23am 
It kind of made sense with the character because in the single player story, Wheatley steals GLaDOS's chambers and claims they are of his creations. The way you presented it doesn't really tell a joke, or at least very well it doesn't.
SpAM_CAN  [author] Feb 12, 2015 @ 6:31am 
wildgoosespeeder - Indeed. I've certainly improved from back then, and the stuff I tried to do with the turret and things was just weird. The Wheatley area was meant to be a joke, but I guess that didn't come across all that well.
wildgoosespeeder Feb 12, 2015 @ 12:11am 
What a strange map from the old ThinkingWithPortals.com days. I liked the Adventure Sphere area the most. It was just interesting. The Space Sphere area felt tedious. The Fact Sphere area was annoying preserving the turret because first time didn't see the laser coming. Wheatley's area was just Portal 1 promo video stuff.
SpAM_CAN  [author] Nov 27, 2014 @ 7:10pm 
Totally understand. This thing is dodgy as hell. It was my first Portal 2 project, and I'd only spent time doing mapping for the original at this stage. My train of thought was fucked up, and a large amount of it is dodgy as hell.
TS_Mind_Swept Nov 27, 2014 @ 2:28pm 
I don't knoiw what it is, but that one didn't suit my fancy like the other one did, it was kind of confusing in many places, and i don't think i did the first space core room right, it felt exploited. Also the part in the first room where you fall through the floor was kind of cheap, you hit the wall, and then started flying forward again, you may want to fix that. and that stupid turret died like a million times x.x eventually i thought to F6 after a made a little progress there. That's pretty much it with the complaints though, the rest of it wasn't that bad, I guess I'm just not really in a puzzle solving mood, oh well. I did like the wall designs though, I've done some design work myself and i know how long that takes and how overlooked it is, so I'm giving you some accolades for that. 8.5/10

is cool
secretivepol Feb 11, 2013 @ 4:03am 
That was one of the best maps I ever plaied!!!!
SpAM_CAN  [author] Jan 22, 2013 @ 6:27am 
@Dante - Again, because Valve.
Nobody No-One Jan 22, 2013 @ 5:46am 
Or a quote feature?
SpAM_CAN  [author] Jan 21, 2013 @ 10:17am 
@Dante - Because Valve.
Nobody No-One Jan 21, 2013 @ 7:49am 
Why doesn't this website have an edit button like TWP?
Nobody No-One Jan 21, 2013 @ 7:48am 
I can't wait to see your next map.
Nobody No-One Jan 21, 2013 @ 7:44am 
Whatever. It's really good.
SpAM_CAN  [author] Jan 13, 2013 @ 2:01pm 
Naaah. Its done. I can't be assed with this map anymore :3
Nobody No-One Jan 12, 2013 @ 2:54pm 
Well, you don't have to.
Nobody No-One Jan 12, 2013 @ 2:54pm 
"This one is finished." No it isn't! You haven't detailed the BTS area well enough yet! THEN it'll be finished.
Nobody No-One Jan 8, 2013 @ 1:39pm 
"@Dante - Sssshhhh! I'm trying to avoid doing work! xD" Hahaha.

"There is only one monitor that COULD be smashed even if I added the triggers." I counted at least two, maybe three. You could use a turret to shoot one of the fact core's monitors and fling to hit Wheatley's monitor.

Anyways, very good map. 4/5 from me.
SpAM_CAN  [author] Nov 5, 2012 @ 3:42pm 
@kmatic - No. Make your own map if you want something specific from it. This one is finished.
JkMenttonet Nov 5, 2012 @ 12:39pm 
can you add different core monitors?
SpAM_CAN  [author] Nov 5, 2012 @ 7:53am 
@Kmatic - Deal with it? There is only one monitor that COULD be smashed even if I added the triggers.
JkMenttonet Nov 5, 2012 @ 4:09am 
but i want all the monitors breakable.!
SpAM_CAN  [author] Nov 4, 2012 @ 3:36pm 
@Kmatic - there are no voice lines for many of the cores to even bother including window smashing, so I won't in this case. And there is no Core Civ sign, the picture above was photoshopped.
JkMenttonet Nov 4, 2012 @ 12:56pm 
do you think can you put all the monitors breakable and can you help me and find the core civ sign?
SpAM_CAN  [author] Oct 10, 2012 @ 12:14am 
@16Bitman - Thank you! :D
16Bitman Oct 9, 2012 @ 6:38pm 
I had no idea how to do the space core part, I skipped it. But I really enjoyed the rest of the map, awesome work!
SpAM_CAN  [author] Sep 26, 2012 @ 12:13am 
@Inspirata - Have you gotten the turret to shoot it? You kinda have to stand behind the glass and get the turret to shoot at you through the broken pane. (Yes, its convoluted - but again, this was made a year and a bit ago when I was a bit rubbish at level design)
The Sojourner Sep 25, 2012 @ 9:55pm 
It may be enabled by default, but it might help to run it just in case someone, for whatever reason, has it set to 0.

Also, I can't seem to get the glass by the repulsion gel to break.
SpAM_CAN  [author] Sep 25, 2012 @ 7:15am 
@Inspirata - I frustrated protoborg because he is an idiot, not because the map is frustrating (though it is, it was created last year when I was much, much worse at level design). You should try the original version on ThinkingWithPortals, its infinitely worse.

"gameinstructor_enable 1" should be enabled by default, its not my fault if someone turns it off.
