    Hello Thread Viewer, Stopex here with a new-ISH map.
    The map is called... [Stopex's] Sig Map!
    I know.. exiciting right...?

    Before we continue let me explain what a sig is... or better yet
    I'll tell you "B00MERdude's" explanation of a sig: A sig is worthless.

    Now... I'll tell you MY explanation of a sig: A sig is a form of letters
    representing ones artistic abilities.

    Now "Dictionary.com's" explanation: A person's name, or a mark representing
    it, as signed personally or by deputy, as in subscribing a letter or other
    document.

    TUTORIAL:
    ‪How to make Halo Reach Signatures | Writing | Part 1‬‏ - YouTube

    [THERE IS NO ACTUALL GAMEMODE FOR THIS, This is a FORGE ONLY THING]

    This is just a neat little creation. I like the creativity and I think this is a great idea for something forge related but not map related. I think that made sense...

    Anyway, keep on thinking up cool stuff like this.

    Making a sig is relatively easy, Just go to the top of the Sig Wall and turn on any of the Objective Markers by looking at them and flying away.

    Next look at the "Blocks you can USE wall" and choose the blocks of your choice/needs and place it on the wall until it becomes pure white.
    Voi-La! You're on your way on making your first SIG!!!!

    Dang those are really sweet. There are just so many uses for forge. I really love the Caution one, what did you use to make that?

    i agree with my statement still but your map has to be the best for the worthless sigs.......... but a tutorial would be nice like a video attachment

    I think this is a great idea and usefull for Clans. If fact Im downloading and make a sign for my clan. Although I understand It, A video would those that don't quite understand or apreciate signatures. Nice Job though.

    nice idea, rubbish map.

    this map is literally a bunch of wall colosseums lined up together, though they may be all in line, it's something that anyone can make, it's a good template for good purposes but it's just not an aesthetic map, i would strongly suggest making a sig tutorial though on the forge discussion page because your idea is great, and those are some cool sigs u made but i'm afraid as an aethetic map, this is literally nothing, it's more of a tutorial.

    Time to break down some key points.

    A: Making a sig map actually is pretty annoying, though anyone
    CAN line up a few walls, but NOT everyone can get the objectives
    to make the blocks FOR THE Sig "Pure White."

    B: The map is actually one of the best compared to the other Sig maps
    out on the market. It shows TONS of effects and TONS of stuff YOU can
    USE to make your Sig. Unless someone WANTS to spend 2 hours looking
    for effects and stuff you can use for Sigs, they can go right ahead and
    do just that.

    C: This isn't really my idea to claim nor' is it any one else's. Sigs have actually
    been around since the beginning of Halo 3 and have progressed greatly through out
    Reach, Im just the first Sig maker that has taken the time to post a SIG MAP on Forgehub. (IF im not mistaking...) Good thing too that it was me that posted my Sig map on here because if it was "IVIorphic" [The BIGGEST TROLL Sig Maker EVER... P.S, HE'S TERRIBLE AT SIGS!!!! LOLOLOLMAO!!!!] Posting his crappy sig map, you'd all be in danger of making bad sigs Due to a bad map... :p

    The "Effects Wall" shows effects that you may use.
    For certain colors, you may need to pick up one of the weapons laid out and shoot it parallel to the sig and look through the bullet for a certain color.

    I think this is a great idea and I look forward to using your template to make a sig. You have made some cool sigs too. Thanks

    Oh, I thought you were going to do a tutorial on the actual effects... I make the sig fine. It's just my effects never turn out awesome.
