Detailed walkthrough for Portal Reloaded's Test Chambers 13, 14, and 15, focusing on using lasers, time portals, and reflector cubes to solve puzzles.
Walkthrough
- 1Test Chamber 13: Place portals as shown in the image. Use a portal to move the laser sideways and a time portal to send it into the future. You can take some damage from the laser to travel into the future. Once in the future, rearrange portals so the laser hits the target directly. Head through the door.
- 2Test Chamber 14: First, travel to the present using a time portal. Summon a reflector cube from the central switch and position it as shown to reflect the laser through the first node. Use a portal to direct this laser into the next two nodes. Then, travel to the future. Use portals to direct a laser into the present through the time portal, ensuring it passes through the node. Retrieve the reflector cube from the future and bring it to the present via the time portal. Adjust the present reflector cube to hit all three nodes. If necessary, return to the future to retrieve the future reflector cube again and bring it to the present. Finally, position the future reflector cube to reflect the laser into the receiver, as shown in the image, to complete the chamber.
- 3Test Chamber 15: Start by going through the particle field to the left. Place a portal where the laser hits the wall and a time portal on the opposite wall. Travel through the time portal to reach the future, bypassing the particle field. Proceed to the other side of the room and use another time portal to return to the present, now on the other side of the particle field. Place a new portal on the upper wall so the laser hits the first receiver. Travel back to the future and place a portal on the small wall in the laser room to aim at the receiver. Return to the present; the laser should be hitting the upper receiver, powering an elevating platform. Stand on the platform and place a time portal behind the node to raise the platform further, allowing you to summon a reflector cube. Place this reflector cube on the lip above the second receiver. Travel to the future. Retrieve the future reflector cube and run into the laser room. Use a time portal in the laser room to bring the future reflector cube to the present. Position it to reflect the laser into the second receiver through the node. To reach the other side of the particle field without going through it, use a portal on the other side or a time portal. Once in the present on the other side, climb the stairs and use a portal on the upper wall to hit the third receiver. Finally, move the reflector cube onto the switch to complete the test chamber.
Tips
- In Test Chamber 15, be mindful of how moving reflector cubes can affect laser paths and the disruption of future cubes.
- Carefully observe the images to correctly position portals and reflector cubes, especially when dealing with multiple time portals and particle fields.
