Warning: not a full map, just a single test room.

Try to get behind the glass without using the laser. Feels familiar?

What about making a full DM or CTF map with lots of rooms connected in such ways?

The %1$s reminds you that the %2$s cannot speak. In the event that the %2$s does speak, the %1$s urges you to disregard its advice.

You will be baked, and then there will be cake..

It would be a lot of work, but one could make a room made of small panels, each of which would be a trigger for a teleporter to move out of the wall... unfortunately, you can't define a tele-dest. in game.

Valve(TM) beware of Alientrap! commin to get chu!

The speed increases just by the grav? or is there an extra force?

One can't really move a teleporter out of the wall, but one can make it "appear" by first covering it by a wall and then making the wall slide away. But true, with the tele dest that would not work.

BTW, we need Portal's talking turrets in Nexuiz.

thats easy and cool

Killing you and giving you good advice aren't mutually exclusive. The rocket really is the way to go.

No hard feelings.

I fear being sued by the valve people for IP infringement!

Won't happen, the idea is not by Valve. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narbacular_Drop

But why is its website down... well, you can still get it at http://www.download.com/Narbacular-Drop ... 73040.html

Prey did also have portals before Portal. It also had cool gravity zones.

/me likes.

Prey was an awesome game. Much better than Doom 3.

Could the portals be freely put on walls? Or were they deployable objects to put on a free area? Or just fixed map objects (like Q3A teleporters)?

They were fixed, although they had the same properties as Portal portals- that is, they were not just teleporters (you could do the trick where you see yourself running, etc). In Prey 2, they will be placable.

And iirc there was a Prey mod that had freely placable portals.
One scene in the game even had a 'lilliput' portal that shrunk you down and placed you into a sort of showcase

Lol. That was an awesome part of the game.
