Enjoy it. You need to be fast at times and I must warn you. Many turrets were harmed in the making of this Test Chamber. You just might harm many as well when you attempt this map.

Hello. I'm planing a small update (new button) for my chamber. You can find a longer descriotion in the comment section. Let me know what you think.
http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=71520217

My latest release: Upwards
http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=72197005

Another chamber that uses momentum as the primary testing element. It's my largest and most difficult map to date, but still remains simple due to the way each test is laid out. Feel free to give it a try and tell me what you think.

Is everyone ready for a very momentous occasion?

This new map has in interesting end that works best when you watch the light during any big falls.

another one. unfortunately i cant tell if this is easy or not.

Hello everyone! I've recently started using the hashtag #F4F (Feedback for Feedback) in my maps. Its meant to help map makers give helpful feedback and receive feedback in return! I hope more people will start using this tag to help map makers help map makers and help the whole Portal 2 community to make better maps. #F4F

Hello. I just finished my second upadate for my first chamber and I'm planning to upload it today on 14th of may. It's going to be a reduction in visual/navigational aspect of the map and some minor tweaks to last puzzle.

I want to hear your opinion on new and old version of the map. Which one do you prefer? What would you change and so on...

Don't worry if you get to play the map after I update it today. There is a walkthrough video of a very first version in the description which you can use for reference. Just make sure you play the map first so you don't spoil it with video. If you play it before the update just stay subscribed so you'll get a notification for update.

Hello, I just joined this group! I recently finished my first map, which I am quite proud of. If you could let me know what you think, I'd much appreciate it!

http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=71520620

Hey guys~
Just finished my masterpiece....
http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=71734857
Best map I've made so far!!
Please test and rate it, don't forget to send your thoughs and suggestions~
THX ALL!

I've had a few new maps show up when I search for #labrat then have in the past. I think the sever is overloaded, & more maps will show up as time goes on... Hopeully, on monday valve will work on solving the issue.

I just tested if it the description and it dont seem to be. I put the #labrat in the title did not come up. also I did a search for my user name and it dont show any maps

Hm, true. A lot of maps don't show up in the search. Description too long? Hasn't been chached yet? Maybe steam filters the results or doesn't show more than 30ish maps? A case waiting to be solved.

I made my 2nd map :) http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=71467527

Well there seems to be a problem with the published maps not showing up in the searches could some one plz try these maps for me and give some critique on them plz
http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/profiles/76561198020067123/myworkshopfiles/

Hey again!
I made another map. I wanted it to be easy, but it turned out to be slightly hard. Anyway... the main concept is, is that you can solve it in (at least) 3 ways. I dare you to find them all!
http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=71414920

Hey Guys! I just started playing all the #labrat maps, but by the looks of it, I'll have a lot of maps to test. ;)
If you want to check out my maps, feel free to do so:

http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/profiles/76561198047394157/myworkshopfiles/

If you don't know what to do, you can take a peek at the walkthroughs I posted.

Hi everyone! My first map went live yesterday, and it's had some good feedback so far. There are some things I'm not so keen on, and they'll be worked on, but I like it as it is right now!

It's called 'Tree' - check it out and record a .dem for me if you can!

http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=68667075

Hi again!
This is my second map so far, and it contains a new element that I may experiment with in the future. Feel free to tell me what you think!

http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=71202058

Just made my first Portal level, The Laser Key.
http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=71187216

new map http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=71082617 spent the whole day on it, but looked like a 10min job in paper :P hope it's mind bending!

Hey guys, i just finished another work here....XD
Please take a look at it and test my other two works if you haven't donne it yet...

http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/profiles/76561197973836469/myworkshopfiles/

Hi! I've finished a level yesterday, today some of my friends tested it, and... well... it seems it's quite challenging according to them. Anyway, let me know what you think! http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=68664086

Tip for the too many items error.

I got this error after my map was working, all I had done was extend a wall one unit ( square ). So I played about with it a bit and found that extending walls floors ect add to the item count so if you get this error and dont want to delete part of a puzzle, just look at some of your rooms and see if you can bring in walls or lower ceilings ect to give you back some item space.

So big empty rooms can lower the amount of puzzles you can build.

Hope this helps ppl with designing chambers.

http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/id/reallifepudding/myworkshopfiles/ 2 chambers so far, have an idea for a big one, but this will take some time

please test my tests,the names are:first map and The search fot the blue gel

This filled up fast. Check out my workshop when you get a chance
4 Chambers with story to tie them together let me know what you think of COMPANION CUBICIDE.

http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/id/da_beers/myworkshopfiles/

Would some one check out my chambers and let me know what you think plz.

Who likes laser grids?

http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=68664871

My first published level. I thought it turned out really great.

So who is hating the broken lights from the new update. I am post-poning an update to this map till it is fixed. http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=68501650

I added a good 40% to it and also fixed an error that allowed for more than half the map to be skipped entirely.

http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=68554194

Basic puzzle really first attempt so all feedback is welcomed !

http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=68572505

Let me know what you think if you try it ^^ it's my first map, and has undergone a few changes already.

Remember to add #labrat to your description so people can find you!

http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=68670453

Very simple test! Let me know what you guys think!

http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=68518985

Here's my first map titled "Back to Basics". The only testing elements are you and the portal gun. Two tests with advanced portaling techniques are included.

http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=68548433
This is my first test chamber. I spent several hours on it, and made minor updates to it today. I hope you all enjoy it! :) There's an easter egg in there too.

http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=68552715
This is the first in a series I'm working on. It's mostly to test the idea, but I wanted to hear what people thought of it overall. Moving forward, I'll add less walking and make it more streamlined. What I really want is opinions! :D Thank you for your time.

Hey guys!
I made two maps, both of them took me some time to make, my friends loved it...
Take a look when you can please! =D

http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/profiles/76561197973836469/myworkshopfiles/

wasn't talking about co-op ether. the workshop acts as though you can have more than one author for a file.... not sure if that’s because there is a way to do it in the portal 2 editor, or if because TF2's or skyrims workshop supports it...

When I said joint maps I was not talking co-op as I know that will come in time. Atm I was thinking you can share the file with each other testing and editing.

I know that could get a bit messy but I have no idea of any other way to do it

All members should add #labrat to the description of any maps they want shared. To find these maps just search the workshop for #labrat

Hopefully this will be added to the description for the group sometime.


On a siide note, does anyone know how joint maps are going to work?

Well glad to see a group start up :). Hope to see some good maps come from ppl, and maybe some teams get together to make joint maps

I made a trailer for my first map here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8c6KfpGSmKg ;)
It's not a very complicated map but it ain't too shabby either. It's pretty easy going: http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=68598276

Here's my remake of my very first Hammer chamber:
http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=68530573
I think it uses Edgeless Safety Cubes and Hard Light Bridges in some new ways, so I'm happy with it. (The next few chambers I made in Hammer not so much...)
