I have been wondering for quite a long time(since I got Halo 3 for Christmas xD), that people have maps that don't look like the maps in forge(when you have never had XBL.) I really want to know how to make a 1-Of-A-Kind map without having to delete every single item on a Forge map. EDIT : Also, how do people have the full list of items, and not just a portion of them? How do people have full budget as well?
Ok, obviously you are new to forge. The way most people start is by first making an account on bungie.net and linking their gamertag to it. Then they download a canvas of the map they would like to forge on from someone else, who already deleted all the objects on the map for them and put it on their file share for people to download. If you are unaware, you can download maps on people's file share directly from bungie.net if you have an account linked to your gamertag. Just sign up, and click the link gamertag button in the top right of the screen. Type in your gamertag, and you're all set. Then go looking for a canvas by typing it in the search box.
Frankly, yes, I am new to some Forge. And, I have not had XBL yet. I will have it in October, possibly. Thanks for the help
Well if you don't have xbox live, you wouldn't be able to download any content anyway. So, I guess you'd have to delete all the objects all by yourself.
You can also download an unlimited budget glitched map where you can can use as much money as you'd like, but there's still an item limit. Example: You can make 5 tanks without having to worry about money, but you can only make 5 tanks because of the number limit.
also when you do get the new maps mythic etc use an oln canvas because you will reach the total item limit alot slower ok and welcome to the community but with oln youll need to see a guide on how to interlock those certain items. ( dont ask me what oln stands for i dont even know lol)
If you don`t have xbox live, then delete everything off the map, including spawns, and save the blank version as a new map. From then on, whenever you start a map, build off the blank version, just don`t save over it, always save as a new map. If you get live, then you can download a blank version without having to do it yourself. Hope this helped.
