Portal/Chamber 15

First room


The first room introduces you to the double fling.

Place an orange portal on the extended panel above the entrance, and create a blue portal on the floor. When you fall through, notice you tend to land on the checkered part of the floor. This time, create a blue portal on the floor on the checkered part, and when you fall through, aim to fall through the blue portal a second time, which will then give enough momentum to pass through the force field.

Second room


The second room has a pellet that needs to cross two forcefields. You can place a portal on the burn mark, however you cannot place a portal above the receiver without the one on the burn mark disappearing. Since to place the portal above the receiver, the other portal would have to be in that small area, you must get the pellet into that area first. Thus, place portals on the burn mark and another part of the wall, as shown in the picture, so that it flies into the other side of the room. Then, run to the receiver, and shoot a portal in front of both the pellet and the red light above the receiver. You must be sure to do this before the pellet disappears, or else you will have to start the process over.

Third room


As with the first room, you have to perform a double fling; however, you can't start the fling within the same room because of the flooring. Instead, after placing one portal on the high extended platform, you need to head to a side room to the left which has a staircase where you can create a portal and jump. When you go through, quickly fire the second portal (same color as the one on the other floor) on the checkerboard and you will be thrown through the force field.

Next, you have to perform a double fling to cross the second force field. Perform similarly to the first room.

You are now in a room where a pellet is bouncing against an angled wall, and scorching the side wall. If you try to place portals on the angled platforms, you will realize that not only is momentum conserved, but the angle of entry as well. Instead, shoot a portal at the scorch mark on the flat wall, as well as the same location on the opposite wall so that the pellet hits the other angled platform and continues to the receiver. Then double-fling yourself back to the other side.

You now need to cross a conveyor belt that's moving backwards, and a misstep will drop you into the water. The easiest way is to put one portal that you will constantly use just outside this corridor, and shoot the other color against the walls. When you can advance onto the platform, do so, and shoot another portal further down the hall. When the platform brings you all the way back, simply go through the portal again and advance a little further each time until you can get all the way into the final room.

Fourth room
A pellet launcher is firing a pellet downward, and the receiver is blocked by a double door.

The doors are opened by the buttons in the side rooms. You need to get a portal in both rooms to press the two buttons fast enough. Then, shoot the wall opposite of the receiver (the extended panel) followed by the scorch mark on the ground to get the pellet into the receiver. This has to happen very quickly, so it may take a few tries. The lift for the chamberlock will lower, and you can proceed to Chamber 16.

Alternatively, you can try a high jump to the exit. With your back to the platform that takes you to the exit, place an orange portal at your feet. Go to either of the other two moving platforms in the room. Stand on one until it reaches the top and place a blue portal at its base while looking down. While jumping through the blue portal hold the forward button to land on the exit platform.

Advanced
In the advanced chamber, most of the puzzles have been made more challenging, requiring alternate methods to solve them

Room 1 has a lot fewer portalable surfaces. Place a portal on the ceiling and the floor. You need to shoot a portal (the same color as your ceiling portal) as you fall so that you can fling over to the other side. You can do this on the first try, but if you miss, you can continue to fall through infinitely until you do manage to place a portal correctly.

Room 2 has an additional forcefield, requiring a 6-portal combination. The pellet moves a little slower, which requires you to place the next portals by the time the pellet hits the wall the first time, or else it will disappear and you will have to start this room again.

Room 3 has no portalable walls in the main room, and no staircase in the side room. Place an orange portal sideways as close to the emancipation field as possible. Place a blue portal on or below the camera, and come through to land on the side room’s ledge. Now place a blue portal on the floor below you. Take note of which direction the field is. If you jump off the ledge and into the portal, pressing the necessary direction, you can manage to come up with just enough momentum to walk through the field into the next section. Another method which is more guaranteed is to, after placing the orange portal similarly, place a blue portal on the ceiling of the side room above the low floor. As you fall through, put another blue portal under you to fly back through to the main room and maneuver over to the next section.

Now that you are with the pellet launcher and receiver, fling yourself over to the other side as normal. Notice the additional angled platforms, preventing the normal method. Trace a path backwards from the receiver, bouncing off the platforms as a pellet would, and you will discover that the pellet needs to be coming straight out of the wall next to the three angled platforms (on that same wall). So place a portal there, and another where the pellet hits the adjacent wall (not the angled platform), and watch it bounce its way to the receiver. Portal back over as normal.

The transition hallway’s platforms move significantly faster, but the same method can be used, just with more accurate timing.

The final room has only the ceilings in the side rooms usable. Also, the potential shortcut of flinging to the exit, as in chamber 14, is prevented. The plan in this case will be to press a button, quickly jump out of the side room and into a floor portal, bringing yourself through a ceiling portal in the other side room, and then proceed as normal. Set up the ceiling and floor portals, and then let the platform raise you up into the appropriate side room (the one without a ceiling portal). Press the buttons, redirect the pellet, and exit.

 * 22) Blue portal on extended panel.
 * 23) Orange portal on scorch mark.

Portals 1-19 are the same as for bronze. Blue portal in front of exit lift, as close as possible. Ride either side room lift to top. Orange portal on the ground. Jump through and maneuver onto exit platform. 
 * Silver at 21 portals

Portals 1-9 are the same as for bronze. You can skip the next pellet entirely with some clever use of portal movement. Blue portal on wall next to hallway entrance. Orange portal at end of first hall section. Now, you can partially enter the portal without falling. When you are halfway through, you will be able to shoot a portal somewhere on the other side. Look left so that it will be farther through the hallway (or forward if portal 11 was on the left wall). Inch up to the boundary between the two sides of the portal. Orange portal at end of second hall section. As you shoot this portal, press left (or back) so that you come back into the main section. If you do so correctly, you will be on solid ground with the portal placed farther down the hallway. Orange portal on the floor of the final room, towards the close end of the left side or the far end of the right side. Place this portal in the same manner as 12, by peeking through, shooting, and coming back to safety before it lands. Then just go through. Blue portal in front of the exit lift, as close as possible. Ride the appropriate side room lift to the top, and jump through your existing orange portal, maneuvering to the exit platform. 
 * Gold at 14 portals

Additional reductions can also be made to this room to achieve sub-14 counts.
 * In the first pellet room, if you place a portal on the scorch mark and another one just left of the camera, but close enough that the camera still falls, when the pellet flies through, it may start to bounce in odd directions, including slightly downwards. If it does, you can pick up the camera and help redirect the pellet into the receiver, which can reduce the portal count by two.
 * In the second fling room, you can place a portal as close to the field as possible, and another on the floor of the side room. If you jump, it is possible to maneuver yourself through the field. This reduces the count by one.
 * More complicated methods may reduce the count further.
