'''BEEmod''', or '''Ben and August's Extended Editor''', is a well-known puzzlemaker modification which adds 10 extra items to the in-game palette, including [[High Energy Pellet]]s and [[Portal Spawner|Autoportals]]. A download and more information about the mod can be found at https://portal2backstock.com/bee/.
'''BEEmod''' is a well-known Puzzlemaker mod which adds additional content to the editor. The latest version of the mod is version 2.4, which uses a standalone app to configure the item palette and other options not available within the Puzzle Creator itself. Some of BEE2.4's features include additional items such as [[High Energy Pellet]]s and [[Portal Spawner|Autoportals]], styles such as Portal 1 and Overgrown, and a large selection of music from various Portal games and mods. BEE2.4 can be downloaded from its [https://github.com/BEEmod/BEE2.4 GitHub page].
 
'''BEE2''' is the second version of the BEEmod. BEE2 is a standalone app which allows the user to choose the items available on the palette from a wide range of custom items. It also includes Carl Kenner's Stylechanger, allowing you to choose between styles such as 1950s and Overgrown. It can be downloaded at http://portal2backstock.com/bee2/, along with TeamSpen210's Addons.
 
'''BEE2.4''' is a new version of the BEE2 which has been completely rewritten in Python by TeamSpen210. It includes lots of new features including multiple game support, stylevars which can be used to configure the behavior of things, and many new compiler features. This new version is available on GitHub at https://github.com/BEEmod/BEE2.4. This is currently the only supported version, any bugs in the old BEE2 will not be fixed.
 
The BEE2 allows the user to select from a wide range of Valve-made and custom test elements, such as the large version of the [[Aerial Faith Plate]] and warm light strips. It also allows you to select a style in which the chamber will be built (such as 1950s Old Aperture). In the BEE2.4, you can also choose the background music, what voice lines are present (if any), the skybox (used for fog in larger chambers and bottomless pits) and the entry/exit [[elevator]] videos, if the style supports them. For example, you could make your map in a 1970s Enrichment Sphere with bottomless pits and the [[Announcer]] talking to the player, while [[Portal 2 Soundtrack|Die Cut Laser Dance]] plays in the background.
