    I have decided a cool map to make would be an rp (roleplay) map. Some place where people can take a break from all the killing and fighting and chill out and live. The thing is I am not that great of a mapmaker. I was wondering could someone please help me design and create a map for the game of life. I need someone who is a good forger because not only do I want this map to be beast but symetrical and clean. I would like this map to be either on sandbox or avalanche. There are a couple of things I want on the map. I need houses, shops, a jail, and a grifball stadium. So, please if anyone can help me or already has a good map please post.

    I think this was done a while ago, (a bit differently, but the same general premise) and overall, just does not sound like fun to me. Frankly, it'd probably be better off starting on a canvas with some friends and just messing around. Actually going into a map with 'house' and 'shops' etc would probably just end up with people either deleting them, filling them with trip mines, or building a tower and sniping other people. Sorry to bring this idea down, just in my opinion it doesn't seem like it would work even remotely. (This is Halo we're talking about)

    NoX Ripshaw has a good jail he's made, however, the whole roleplaying thing doesnt really appeal to me, or quite a large majority of the halo audience.

    But good luck anyway, NoX's username on here is Recon speller

    As the people above me have said, this sor tof thing wont atract most of the halo audience. But if you already have a groupd of friends that enjoy doing this sort of thing then instead of bringing a 3rd party forger into the midst why not make It a fn project between you adn you're friends. the way you can create the roleplaying universe in you're own image rather than someone else's. Although forge wasn't design for this sort of thing since halo is an FPS, if you all have semi-decent computers then may I suggest Garry's Mod. Its basically a game engine that has been converted into a game and has a huge roleplaying community with many RP specific maps, gametypes, ect. Some where you can use "real" money transactions (well not actually money but money in the game) and jobs where you can earn this money. That might be a more suitable platform for you and you're friends to go do some roleplaying on.
