I also highly recommend checking out Darkstar Archangel's tutorial in which he shows how to use portals to create a seamless room-over-room effect (an excellent alternative to 3D floors!). You can watch it here:

The only reason I am even remotely able to make the maps that I want is because of your tutorials, man. They are the most descriptive, comprehensive, and detailed tutorials on the internet, as far as I'm concerned. You actually demonstrate what can go wrong instead of just saying "don't use this." You educate me on WHY we should do things certain ways, which is the only way to truly learn something. THANK YOU!!

myhouse wad really went with this tutorial

[MrCult-xwuo]

This guy has been doing this for 12 years!, My man is the OG

[tranceemerson]

OMG the possiblities are endless.. ENVIRONMENTAL STORY-TELLING! LOVE IT!

The moment I saw how the static portal worked, it felt as if I was several years younger and had just played Portal for the first time again

After watching this tutorial i believe that you sir are the person responsible for myhouse.wad, and if you are then I would like to thank you for giving me and my 10 year old son some of the best gaming moments and memories that we have had in years as we spent hours and hours exploring every little part of the map. I do belive that those memories will stick with my son to be retold his kids.

Whats funny is I was looking for a tutorial like this two days ago but found nothing helpful. And then here you are 😁

[danceswithrevenants]

I applied your tutorial and made a maze of portals. With enough portals and proper placement, I was able to see myself through the portals XD and the game runs smoothly enough

So glad that Prey is still getting recognition after all of these years.
(also the 1995 demo leaked so that's cool too)

[Karaffka]

Imagine getting lost in a labirynth full of those portals with automap disabled.

Thank you, your work is seriously underrated, without your work there would probably be a lot less community maps out there

[ScottishAtheist]

Nothing short of incredible! The possibilities this opens up for map designs are endless.

[ChrisJEPlace]

Glad to see you’re still making Doom Builder tutorials! They’ve always helped me so much with my stuff.

[VGamingJunkieVT]

Thanks for the tutorial! You could make complex 3D structures or even Non-Euclidean geometry with this.

[CursedHeretic]

You are a godsend to the doom commmunity. I made Hubris Containment Sector thanks to you and now I'm really vibing a new map with this knowledge

[skemech]

doom II came out in '94... it is incredible what you can do with it

[krysher]

So glad someone made a tutorial for this! Looking forward to using seamless Portals in future mapping.

DUDE MY MANS STILL MAKING DOOM TUTORIALS HOLY SHIT THIS IS AWESOME THANK YOU.

[ejboogy]

Chubz you're a legend. Thank you for continuing to share your knowledge about Doom mapping with the community. The way you explain things is so awesome and easy to understand, and you don't skimp on any details. You're the go to for doom tutorials IMO. I hope all is well. THANK YOU!
