Map Title: Concert Stage Just in case Master Chief needs to hold an American Idol. Y'know, the kind where if you suck at singing, you get a Shotty through the head? Download Map Description: This is an imitation of a concert stage/venue. It may have been done before but I wanted to do it anyway just to see if I could. You can fight on it, it's open and flat enough, but I was just making it to look like a concert stage. It has a few features that make it look like the rest of the venue too -- the only thing it's really missing is chairs for the audience. But hell, they can stand. The stage itself as seen from the front. As seen in the screenshot above there's even the little rack that goes across (made of Bridges) that if it were really a concert stage would be where the spotlights are, and the supports, etc. There's stairs off to the side for the desired main act to walk up to take the stage. Then, around back, we have the loading dock. Two bridges as ramps, and a truck on one of them... there's also an open double box for what was supposed to be the truck's trailer load. However, it was so big I couldn't get it aligned so let's just say the truck already dropped it's load. The loading dock to the map. As I said, you could fight on here, or you could possibly try to make your own show out of the game similar to that of Red Vs. Blue, if you really wanted to make a "Halo Idol" or "Covenant Idol" or whatever you may please. Enjoy the map, I hope you guys like it =D "...I ain't no hollaback giiirrl, I ain't no hollaback giiirrl..." Cheers ~Doc
Nice map, nice gamertag... terrible screenshots. Here's a guide to making proper screenshots: http://www.forgehub.com/home/index.php?topic=269.0
NEVER put down someone else's map to uplift your own, thats not what forge hub is for. anywho, I can see how it could be a concert stage, the only thing is, I don't see like any lights (ive seen em done in others) or any equipment or whatnot
Eh, it's okay. I'd like to see his version of the concert stage so that maybe I can toy with mine in Forge to make it better. Also I wouldn't be sure how to do lights/equipment. It would be extremely AWESOME if Forge provided scenery items like piano, guitar, drum sets, I mean hell, they have a soccer ball, so why not? Thanks for the comments. I'll work on making my maps even better -- I still have some technique to work on. Cheers ~Doc
for the lights you could use items like custom power ups, overshields etc. and or you can flip mancannaons upside down
you know that when you are in the Theater Mode you can Press B to get rid of the HUD looks nice though
Yeah, after I posted those, I noticed that screenshots on FH didn't have the HUD, so I explored how to get rid of them and hit every button until it did (B). Thanks!
"Just in case Master Chief needs to hold an American Idol. Y'know, the kind where if you suck at singing, you get a Shotty through the head?" i lol'ed at that
hi greg if you would like to see the concert stage i made here is the link to it. http://www.forgehub.com/home/index.php?topic=3298.msg42953#msg42953 it has the drumset and piano just like you said. :3
Use grav lifts placed on air-spawned weapon holders for the lights. That's my suggestion. I used them along with mancannons to make baseball stadium lights.
EAG made one before, a bit sloppier than this, but at least I could see what was wrong with it. It would be nice if I could see the actual stage, so I know you didn't just pile a bunch of boxes together and call it 'art'. For an example, you can use wire-spools as a bass drum, or a Gravity Hammer as the mic.
Very nice, a lot better than mine. I just played it with a bunch of people and we all kept spawning in the audiences with random weapons (my gametype) and we'd be obliterating eachother before any of us got to the stage, hehe.
hehehe yes thats what me and my friends were doing we would fight eachother to see who would reach the stage first
Being new and all. It would be an awesome Machinma set with lights,and like a sword for guitar..uhmm barrels as drums..etc stuff like that =) im not trying to say its bad. its good
