    So those of you who have either tried creating or playing a banshee race map and found it boring bear with me. This is not your typical race map. Not only are you racing on this map but you are trying to figure out certain obsticals at the same time. I'm going to show you the course throughout forge world but I'm not going to tell you how to get past everything.

    You start of in Hemmerage on blue's side.

    This part is easy just make it to the other side.

    Next you will come to the big cave. In here there are 2 kill balls constantly moving.
    [​IMG]

    Continue on to Paridiso's island. There will be 3 kill balls on the ground with 3 trip mines continually droping over and over again in the check point. Above the checkpoint is a kill zone that will show up while racing as a red box.
    [​IMG]

    After the 3 kill balls fly through a small cave but be careful not to touch certain walls that have trip mines on them.
    [​IMG]

    Next you just have to cross some water. Seems easy enough except the checkpoints are just barely above the water and the area to fly thorugh is just a bit bigger then the cockpit on the banshee.
    [​IMG]

    Following the water you will fly around the tall spire that holds Pinnacle 1 1/2 times while traveling up.
    [​IMG]

    Once at the top head over to the hanger.
    [​IMG]

    Enter tha hanger on the right side. When you get inside a kill zone will be on top of and below you (you will be able to see them). Fly to the back of the hanger and then back to the front. The middle pillar in the hanger has 3 one way shields around it. Hit one of these and it will push you into the kill zone.
    [​IMG]

    After you get out of the hanger fly up to a huge upside down L.
    [​IMG]
    Once in the top go down.

    When you get to the bottum of the L turn right toward the alcove by the water fall where you will turn around at a rock spire with a little cave next to it.
    [​IMG]

    After the spire head to Paradiso again. There will be more than one checkpoint to choose from.
    [​IMG]

    Next you will come up to 2 checkpoints at the same time again but both are red. there is a way to get past these without dying and there are ways to figure it out without trial and error.
    [​IMG]

    The next part is my favorite part of the whole map. You will have to fly past
    cannons. . .
    [​IMG]
    . . .a battleship. . .
    [​IMG]
    . . .and an aircraft. . .
    [​IMG]
    . . .all shooting anti air at you. . .
    [​IMG]
    . . .that will explode without hiting you and can kill you.
    [​IMG]
    This section is controlled by the cone people with giant heads.
    [​IMG]
    They have a thing about other aircraft flying through their zone.

    Once you get through the cone people with giant heads no fly zone you will come up to some more multiple choice checkpoints but this time 2 of the checkpoints have three choices.
    [​IMG]

    After that you have 2 more regular checkpoints and you are back to the beggining. I have set this map up so if you die and respawn on certain checkpoints that have more than one you should spawn on the one that doesn't kill you. But in case it messes up or you accidentally press the d-pad while respawn just press up or down on the d-pad to spawn on the right checkpoint like in bro slayer. That's about it. Oh and did I forget to mention that throughout this whole race your racing buddies can and probably will be shooting at you. Enjoy!!!

    Looks neat like they idea but there seems to be a lot of spots you could cheat at by simply going around things

    I remember this is what I first thought race would be... Nice job trying to make this work. I think you should make some epic structure on alaska/montana... HUGE.

    They are just spammers. bullet goes to random thread and makes a comment that just has enough to do with the map so he doesn't get banned. As long as you have checkpoints placed regularly no one will be able to cheat.

    You know that you cant see death barriers in Custom Games, so you will have to mark them out with objects you can see.

    Every red zone you see in the pictures above is a kill zone and they where taken in a custom gome. You take a kill zone and label it race flag. Then you number the spawn seguence the same number as one near ii so it will show up. So for example when you are in the hanger and are heading toward the checkpoint in the back, the back one is lets say check point 22. So I put a kill zone above and below and made them checkpoint 22's as well. The kill zones are actually check points and if you enter them it will spawn the next check point. But you will also dead. figured out this trick while making this game.

    Finally got a game on this.

    I liked pretty much everything about the map, except the kill zones weren't quite big enough and I didn't get the point of the last puzzle. I was just kind of perplexed. I finally saw that the colors changed, but it was too late for me.

    7/10.

    This is really fun! It is great with a huge party and its hilarious to watch other people get recked!

    Edited by merge:


    It was a really good, but it was easy to figure the puzzle out.
