    Hi everybody ! So, now, a lot of people here know my Gametype and Racetracks Split/Second : Reach.

    So, just for give you ONE topic with all racetracks and gametypes, I create this topic with a "bonus".

    For people who don't know Split/Second : Split/Second is a racing game where you have to destroy some parts of the track to change the road and create a new path or kill your opponents.

    In Reach : You have to shoot the landmines to destroy some part of the track to kill your opponents.

    Gametypes :

    Split/Second : This is a Rocket Race variant. You must have a passenger on your mongoose to activate the powerplays. The pilot has to finish first, and the gunner has to activate the powerplays to help his pilot or destroy the others !
    Bungie.net : Halo Reach : File Details

    S/S Détonateur / Détonateur 2 : In Détonateur, you have 1 minute to finish a lap. The first who finish a lap wins the round. In S/S Détonateur, you are in team so you can play with 16 players but nobody can kill or destroy the environment. In S/S Détonateur 2, this is a Rally variant, so this is FFA and for 8 players max. In these 2 gametypes, the powerplays are activated in a precise time and can kill everyone.

    I made 7 racetracks and 2 have never been posted in Forgehub, you can see it on this little surprise :

    Awesome gameplay, you have my download, just curious, how do you make the vehicles explode according to the players?

    So... in Split/Second, each player have a DMR and an Assault Rifle, the gunner must shoot one of the landmine near the vehicles. (I just suggest to the gunner to take his assault rifle and shoot slowly for more precision, and another detail, everyone can be shooted by another one... So "fair-play" must be here to play something fun)

    I always place a landmine in the better sight line to activate the powerplays from far away and don't just shoot when you are in front of the part you will destroy.

    The differences in Détonateur (or Detonator in English) are : No player can make damage to other players, weapons are placed on the map. The weapon (as you can see in the trailer) spawns and falls on the landmine, and the impact makes the mine explode with the same power that if you shoot it with your rifle to 100% damage, so 2 landmines can destroy a vehicle (yeah, Scorpion and Wraith too).

    The idea is : build a map and transform some part of the track into a deadly weapon (on Streets for example, my favorite racetrack, you have 4 scorpions which are changed to make a bridge... yeah ! That's really violent...)

    This game mode seems very fun and might even feel very chaotic. I haven't gotten a game going, but I will as soon as possible.

    Glad to see people finally making something different.

    Yeah, thanks. I really wanted to create something new. Race Maps are very cool and sometimes very impressive. Race and Rally are fun, but... There's not enough cool things, so... Let's add some explosions and destructible environment !

    I hope you'll be in love of these gametypes and maps !

    What happens if the gunner doesn't shoot the mines?

    Well, the landmines will never explode. I fixed a lot of problems about the landmines, because in Rally and Rocket Race, if you approach the mines, they will explode because they have an "attack field" (don't know if I can say this like that, I hope you understand). So sometime, the mines exploded when I ran on a bridge of Scorpion for example, but this is not a problem anymore.

    Another important point : When you die, you respwan to start point. In rally, there's no checkpoint.

    The laps are constructed like this : 2 rally points in the end of a lap, 5 points to win, so 3 laps. But in Cataclysm, you have just one lap.

    If you have any other question...

    I really love this gametype, considering Split Second is one of my favorite racing games. I just wish my friends enjoyed it as much as I do, well done!
    Edit: Also, what program did you use to make the trailer?

    Hi ! So, no I didn't make any other racetrack, and I didn't imagine any other too. I thank a few months ago, maybe I could do something on Breakneck or Timberland, or change a little the style of S/S racetrack, making some tracks in environment from movies like the Death Star or maybe from other universe like medieval in a castle for example.

    But I didn't play Halo Reach for 3 or 4 months, Battlefield 3 made me so happy... =') If you're good forger, sure you can create something in a most realistic environment and imagine some great explosion to destroy everyone ! But... Maybe I'll return to Reach just for people who like this gametype, and I hope Halo 4 will give us more destructible objects to create something more intense !

    Mmh ! These words make me curious ! "I have throw around the idea to make one"

    I really hope to play a S/S racetrack I don't build myself, so if you have an idea, I will be the first to be interested in this ! I can't promise you I will make any other track, but I'll try, if my motivation grow up again ! (If I make some mistake in english, it could be only a good point for me if you correct my posts ! =') )
