First, the actual topic. If you want to sign up, sign up over there. Easier for me to keep all the names together. And now, the topic itself, _______________________ I know Halo Reach isn't out for about another half of a month, but I really wanted to make a topic to discuss the Silent Cartographer map me and some people are planning on working on. First off, if you'd like to help just go /signed [gamertag]. You'll be added to the list, and messaged on release date to come join the Forge match. If there's too many people for one match, I'll go ahead and kick a few players every hour to let more in (don't worry; if you're working, you're staying. If you want back in, message me and I'll re-invite ya' next time I kick). We'll be doing this on the "small" island in the water; a death barrier will be placed about twenty feet into the water, and about forty feet above the highest point. Terrain objects will be used to make the terrain more Silent Cartographery, and then we'll look to see what we have to work with to create the Cartographer. If we have enough resources, we can look towards building some of the inner areas, although I doubt we can (at least, not without teleporters). Let me make this clear, we will NOT be doing Death Island If anyone would like to help me look through the objects shown in the Forge reveal video to see what we could use for the Cartographer, that'd be great - I've already noted the rock items that, with Phase, can be used to shape the terrain. The Forge lobby will go up at 4PM EST. Forgers (you will be messaged on and prior to release date about the event) Braveun (BillJ66) --- Noted Objects (notable Forge video objects) Rocks (+phase=terrain shaping ) Giant disks (not sure if they're large enough, we'll see) ____________________Not sure if anyone has already started a topic for a Silent Cartographer remake. Sorry if anyone did.
Nope, but I am So far I've worked out how I'm going to fit Death Island on to the Reach Island but that probably won't help you much because the only real similarity the 2 maps have is the uncut island shape. I mean if you fill in all the walkways and take away the structures then the island shape is the same. Other than that they're 2 different maps. I guess the only way I can help you with what I've learnt is by confirming you that TSC Island and FW Island are about the same size (well, Death Island is about the same size as Sidewinder). Also, if you have Halo PC then download a program called Sparkedit. It lets you open up a 3D model of any of Halo PCs multiplayer or campaign maps, showing you spawns for weapons vehicles and AI. I've found it very useful for matching Death Island to the video clips of Forge World.
Really? From the looks of it, TSC Island is around 3 times the size of FW Island. Just looking at the tank on the Island in the Forge World vidoc tells me my estimates may be too low.
