    Gsmetipes: oddball. slayer. crazy king.
    Min: 2 Max: 8

    [​IMG]

    All my friends ask me for make a guardian remake. but i make only a map inspired in guardian but very diferent. this map its a kind of mine for minerals and metals in a volcanic pit the bottom is hot and the center is wide but for short encounters is great.

    [​IMG]

    the volcanic crater give the name to the map and its the best point to snipe

    [​IMG]

    the under passage its excelent when you got the ball.

    [​IMG]

    the extractor get te foundry metals to surface. ah and the sniper is here.

    [​IMG]

    most of the action set in ht lateral structures but if you want get less death and more kills only pass troug the halls an get away from te center

    CATACOMBS
    Gsmetipes: oddball. slayer. crazy king. Infection.
    Min: 4 Max: 16

    [​IMG]

    This map is a basic almost laberinthic map. this underground tomb divided in 4
    areas
    the acueduct. the chapel. the mausoleum and the grave.
    its a great map for infection and a estrategic site for twam action. cqc combat its basic and recon the map before you start to hunt. jetpack its almost useless.

    [​IMG]

    the chappel its an enclosed box where the asasinations are ech 3 secs.

    [​IMG]

    the acueduct its a clear area for dmr an needlers. and another long range weapons.

    [​IMG]

    the mausoleum had heavy power weapons and a platform for bombers.

    [​IMG]

    this is the tomb. the sword is an usefull tool in this map ant this area get full of granades too fast.

    well this is all that can put in this post
    the last 2 maps are posted in the part 3. i hope some map like to you. coment an enyoy. thanks.

    Dowload Catacombs

    Holy crap, the first one looks awesome. I don't think anybody has ever had that idea before, but you pulled it off. Nice job. The second one though, was confusing to play the first time, because you had no idea where you were. Maybe open it up a little.

    The Volcano map looks incredible, like something I would find in LotR, and seems as though it would be great fun to play on. The Kill Balls looks great acting as lava, and all of the lighting and aesthetics really blend in with the overall aspect of the map being inside of a volcano. The second one, however is a little bit less appealing, and is probably not as good for gameplay as the other one. But, they both look pretty nice, so great job! I'm definitely giving these maps (or at least Volcano, anyway) a download.

    I love the first map, Before I read the comment I was wondering if it was a remake of guardian. You did a great job with the aesthetics and keeping the feel of guardian with out making an exact remake. Still have to try the second map but I will give it a download

    Maybe specify that there are two maps for the title, before people click it. I'll download volcano, maybe catacomb.

    Considering How I'd expected it to be just a bunch of rocks and killballs, you pulled off the idea of a Volcano quite well, though the name could use a little more pizazz. I really like the details of using the Walkway Covers and the One way shields, but I might sugest using some struts in place of the 1x2 inclines, which kind of look like evil spikes or something.

    Oh, I just wanted to say that I nominated Volcano for Forge Hub Favorites a few minutes ago. My reasons were this: It was a brilliantly original idea, you executed it perfectly, and this is prbably the best post from a rookie I've ever seen. Oh, and FFA was amazing.

    I think Volcano is my favorite out of all of the maps you've posted so far. It's like Guardian, only with a twist and a different theme. If these were your first maps, then not bad! DL'd

    How has no one said anything about Volcano's framerate yet? Sure, the theme is great, and fairly well executed. Gameplay has potential, but all the glass pieces cause horrible framerate drops that make the map amost unplayable. I felt like I was playing in slow motion. The map is also escapable. A map with such a glaring issue cannot compete in FHF.

    Simple. Very few people actually played it.

    It's hard to see this being anything but a map to joke around on with friends anyways. The FX and kill balls just throw that out.

    Also please do no use white text. It does not show up on the FH light skin.

    I played an 8 person FFA, and yes, the framerate was horrible, so I took out the kill balls. It improved a lot, the next thing to do would probably be to replace the windows in the walkways. A few small edits, and the map if framerate free.

    The glass is the main cause of screenlag. the lag exists even in single player games locally, so I don;'t understand how you didn't notice it while making the map. You shouldn't have to remove the killballs or shield walls, but you'll have to experiment. The majority of the glass definitely has to go.

    Your post is not up to Forge Hub's standards. These standards include:
    • At least one embedded picture or video that clearly demonstrates the map.
    • At least a brief description.
    • A download link that points directly to the file on bungie.net - NOT your fileshare.
    THIS THREAD WILL BE LOCKED WITHIN 24 HOURS IN THE ABSENCE OF A FIX.

    eh. my post had all of that things.
    if is the download direction is because i changed the name of the map until i finish to fix it. now is called "magma pit"
    isnt fixed yet so if you want to close the post you can do it but i will post again when the map was finished and ready to play.

    The problem is that your download link goes to you fileshare. If this is a map pack thread then you need a download link for each map going to that map specifically. PM me when you want to fix this. Locked.

    Edit: Since it was such a small error and I had the tine, I fixed it for you. Please avoid this mistake in the future. Re-opened.
