Navigate Test Chambers 13, 14, and 15 in Portal Reloaded using this detailed guide. Learn how to manipulate lasers and time portals to solve complex puzzles.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Test 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 without affecting the present. Position portals so the laser hits the target directly to open the exit door.
  2. 2
    Test Chamber 14: First, travel to the present using a time portal. Summon a reflector cube from the center switch and position it in the present as shown. Use a portal to direct a laser through the first node, then use this to reflect the laser into the next two nodes. Travel to the future. Use portals to bring 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 a time portal. Ensure the present reflector cube hits all three nodes; adjust as needed. If the future reflector cube was moved, return to the future to retrieve it. Place the future reflector cube at the end of the nodes to reflect the laser into the receiver, completing the chamber.
  3. 3
    Test 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. Head 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 above the laser room 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 still be hitting the first receiver, powering an elevating platform. Stand on the platform and shoot a time portal behind the node. This raises the platform, allowing you to summon a reflector cube. Place this cube on the lip above the second receiver. Travel to the future by placing your time portal conveniently. Retrieve the future reflector cube and enter the laser room. Place another time portal in the laser room to bring the future reflector cube into the present. Position it to reflect the laser through the node into the second receiver. To reach the other side of the particle field without going through it, use an existing portal or a time portal. You need to be 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 chamber.
Tips
  • In Test Chamber 13, you can take some damage from the laser to travel into the future.
  • In Test Chamber 14, ensure the reflector cube in the present hits all three nodes; adjust its position if necessary.
  • In Test Chamber 15, be mindful of how moving cubes can affect future cubes and laser paths. Retrieving the future reflector cube might require returning to the future.
  • In Test Chamber 15, when positioning the second reflector cube, ensure it reflects the laser through the node into the second receiver.
  • In Test Chamber 15, to get to the other side of the particle field, use an existing portal or a time portal to bypass it while in the present.
