    Welcome to portal, an infection minigame where there is a 50/50 chance for the zombies to join the battle, or be instantly blown up.

    [​IMG]
    Overview

    Humans

    Portal involves the humans starting in the main battlefield which contains various weapons like the BR and the AR. After 30 seconds two sets of dual wield spikers spawn.

    Spikers

    Then, if you manage to survive for 2 whole minutes, a shotgun spawns on top of the cage (see below)


    [​IMG]
    Shotgun

    After this, all you can do is hold out and survive.

    Zombies

    If you are a zombie, you will spawn inside the portal room. This will have a view of the main battlefield, but you will be safe from the gunfire.


    [​IMG]
    Portal room

    You have a choice of four different portals, two of which will lead you to the battle, two of which into...

    The cage

    If you end up here, then UNLUCKY (and haha) you are severely owned. You are locked in a small room, with 32 fusion coils and 16 propane tanks. If that isn't bad enough, they are set to instant respawn, so if they are exploding already, they won't stop. However if they are not...


    [​IMG]
    In the cage

    ...you are the humans' pet. They can mock you, teabag infront of your cage, toy with you, and when they choose to...

    [​IMG]
    BOOM

    ...they can just kill you.

    Success! Now what?

    However, you may have chosen one of the 2 correct portals. You will be teleported here:

    Success

    Now you must run in, and battle for domination against the humans.

    This post is not up to forgehub standards. All map posts must have at least one embedded screenshot.

    RULES

    Click the spoiler button below to learn how V
    Embedding Screenshots in your Map Thread

    Part 1: Taking a screenshot

    Sorry, no pictures for this section, don't have a capture card, but it is soo easy, I shouldn't need to explain, but I will.

    1. After recently playing your map, go to "Theater Mode".
    2. Select the match you played, and "Start Film".
    3. Press "Y" after film has started, and pause the game (or not), and position your camera.
    4. Click the camera symbol on the navigation bar.
    5. Save it.


    Part 2: Getting your screenshot from Bungie.net

    1. Open up your Internet Browser (I use Firefox) and go to our dearly beloved Bungie.net, and go to My Stats/Find a Player.

    [​IMG]

    2. Then, go to the right of the screen, to "People Finder". Make sure that it is set to Halo 3, and type in your Xbox-Live Gamer tag. Then click "Search".

    [​IMG]

    3. You should then being on your Gamer Tag profile. Click "Hi-Res screenshots".

    [​IMG]

    4. Find the Screenshot you wish to embed, and click on it. Also, make sure pop-ups are allowed from Bungie.net.

    [​IMG]

    5. A large version of the screenshot should come up in a separate window. Again, click the screenshot.

    [​IMG]

    6. This should come up, asking you what program to open the screenshot with, or to save it to disk. For simplicities sake, just check off "Save to Disk" and the click "OK".

    [​IMG]

    7. Depending what your preferences are, the picture could be saved to a number of places, if you are using Firefox, then this should come up. Click "Open" on the top one, which is more than likely the screenshot you are looking for.

    [​IMG]

    8. An image viewing program displaying the screenshot should come up. Click the save option, in this case a floppy disk icon.

    [​IMG]

    9.Save your image as a JPEG file, under a folder and name you can find later. Type the name in and click "Save".

    [​IMG]

    10. Congrats, now you have your screenshot on your computer. Now onto:


    Part 3: Signing up for a Photobucket account, and uploading your screenshot to the internet.

    1. Start by opening your internet browser, and going to Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket. Why Photobucket? Cause I find that Imageshack is a pain and people seem to get nothing but thumbnail pictures from it, if they do try to embed their screenshots. Once there, click "Join Now" cause IT'S FREE!

    [​IMG]

    2. Type in a username, and a password that you can remember. Then click "Next Step".

    [​IMG]

    3. Now fill the form out, when you are done, click "I accept. Sign me up!"
    Note that none of that information is true to me. That is not my name, or birthdate, or anything.

    [​IMG]

    4. Follow instructions from there.

    5.Go to Login on Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket, type in your username and password, and then click "Login".

    [​IMG]

    6. You should now be in your album. Find the section in the middle of the screen like the one below, and click "Choose Files", and make sure the size is set to 640x480.

    [​IMG]

    7. An "Open File" window comes up. Now find your screenshot where you saved it, click on it, and then click "Open". Note that you can select more than one image before click "Open" by clicking your first image, and then (while holding down the SHIFT key) click on the other images you wish to add.

    [​IMG]

    8. Give it time to save the screenshot on the internet. Click "Cancel" to stop uploading.

    [​IMG]

    9. When it is done, this screen will come up. Give it a title and a description, or just skip that, and click "save and continue".

    [​IMG]

    10. And now your screenshot is on the internet, ready to be embedded.


    Part 4: Embed your image in your post.

    1. Go to your "my albums" on your photobucket page, which is located in the top navigation bar. Then, scroll down the page until you find your screenshot.

    2. Click on the text in the space next to "IMG Code". This will automatically copy that link to your clipboard.

    [​IMG]

    3. Go to post your Map Thread, and right click/Paste the IMG code (an image code is the direct link url of an image, in between [./img], but without the ".")[/SIZE]

    [SIZE=3][IMG]http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o46/onlykaproductions/embed6.jpg

    4. Yay!

    [​IMG]


    Well, I hope this was helpful to those who had no idea how to embed their screenshots before. And those who find themselves telling newcomers that their Map Threads are not up to standards without pics, send them this way.

    Or you can visit www.haloscreenshots.net and enter in your gamertag. They have all your recent screenshots. Copy and past the BB code, also known as the forgehub code and paste it into your thread.

    If you have any more questions regarding how to embed images or any questions about anything else, feel free to Private Message me and I will try my best to help you out. If I am unavailable contact one of the staff or loyal members (colored names). I am sure they will help you out.

    This looks like a real fun map. Maybe I'll download.

    Shouldn't this thread be blocked or something? Just wondering..

    Sorry...

    My screenshots didn't work, I was in a hurry last night and I posted the URL of the page, not the actual photo...

    I'll get to work on fixing them now.

    [EDIT]
    There we go, pictures are now up.

    This is not a very good map to tell you the truth. I doubt you will get many downloads since you really did some unfair stuff. Having the zombies having to pick a teleporter and one of them leading to instant death. Most good infection maps are balanced so the zombies have a chance. Also, do the humans have infinite bullets. a shotgun with infinite bullets is really hard to stop. I think you should try to improve on making the game fair.

    The shotgun has no spare rounds, and the zombies are faster and have 150% damage resistance. The humans also have 90% weapon damage so 1 hit kills will be impossible.

    Hmm... if you want to have the cage were Zombies can find themselves trapped, I'd suggest, making the all of the teleporters set on the same channel, that way, someone can't already know exactly which to go through.

    Version 1 is now up and running, enjoy.

    Should there be any flaws, or if I feel like it, I will make a version 2.
