Ok, I had this killer idea about a month ago to build a map that consisted of: -a main base. -a smaller fire base that is accompanied by an orbital ship in the skybubble. -miscellaneous aesthetics in between. I have successfully completed sort of an example map that is functional, but isn't very pleasing to the eye. This is where I need help. A blocked guardian/budget map was used so there is plenty of space in between the two ground bases The object of this map is more of a casual atmosphere, but if made to, could be a full on wide open competitive map. HOW IT WORKS: Attckers start in the orbital ship. Inside the ship there is a mini armory. Probably the coolest part of the ship, a MAC Cannon that shoots at the enemy base and surroundings, constructed with a stationary wraith on a tin cup(it really works!!). Those are the main highlights. To get to the ground, there is a system of Mini-pelicans(my creation), one boarding the orbital ship, and one on the ground next to the fire base. There are teleporters in each so that you may go back and fourth. Also, on the ground one, a warthog is attached to it. Shoot the fusion coil to drop it down! I also thought of making the orbital ship outside the skybubble, so players and vehicles can drop straight to the ground from the ship, but then I forgot I suck at forging :lol: The fire base doesn't have much, but its still cool. So anyways, after touchdown grab your favorite vehicle and make your way to the Defenders base. Defenders spawn in the main base. There isn't much to the Defenders base, maybe a cool vehicle garage with a kickass working garage door, and an armory, maybe even a stationary guass idk. There isn't much to the job the players have to do either, besides defend, but maybe you could infiltrate the attackers ship?? This map is also very fun to goof around on. So I'll be on this weekend and i'll be working on it. plz help! It would be kickass if one of you pros could do something like it too I will also post the example soon.
This sounds like a good idea. I might consider helping but before i do anything could you post up some pics of you're 'example map'. message me once oyu have and i'll take a look and see if I can help. (Here's a link to the screenshot posting guide in case you dont know how ohh and ignore anyone hat tells you to post them via haloscreenshots, it doesn't work)
okay nice well i wont be able to get to my xbox till later today to get some pictures so you might as well just look at it in person. trust me its cool. i know some geomerging and stuff so its not that bad lol
One thing that would make this map easier to make: Ghost Merging. It's a stickied thread at the top of the forum called New Forge Glitch.
