New here, have browsed a bit over the last week. Not very good at forging but I do have a dabble. Crap at actually playing Halo so may as well try making maps and see if I am any good at that lol I got 2 kids, live in England, and when I am not getting slaughtered on the xbox I am out hooning on my motorbike. Nice sight, interesting creations, nice to meet you all
Welcome to ForgeHub! The Forging 101 tutorials and videos are probably your best first stop here, along with checking out some featured maps to see how good maps are made, aesthetically and gameplay-wise. Hope to see some maps soon!
Hey gixk2! As Insane54 has pointed out the Forging 101 section is the definite place to try first. Hey, if you don't get good at forging right away keep working at it. I'm still pretty terrible myself, but you can't quit as it takes a LOT of effort to get good at forge. Here's a place you should stop before Forging 101 though. The rules. Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with them. Really there's no stress just follow them, they're pretty simple and you usually have to go out of your way to break them. As long as you do that and are at least mostly respectful to your fellow forgers, things should go along just smooth and fine for you. Also though, digging through Forging 101 can be a bit tedious and somewhat overwhelming to a new forum-goer. iRaynne has made an attempt to help simplify forum life as a beginner, you can check it out here. This thread includes a link to all the main areas of the forums, with handy descriptions so you know where you want to go. In the second post (AKA Part II) you can find links to some of the 'official' forge tutorials from the Forging 101 section, as well as some very helpful, very detailed forging basics tutorial videos, which are a lot easier to follow than text for me personally. Anyway, welcome to FH and good luck! If you have questions feel free to message Admins or Moderators, or those Journalist guys. Or just ask on the forums! Don't forget your super handy search tool, it's very useful and helps to remove pesky repeat threads. Thanks and happy forging!
