    I have seen a couple of map that have used the shield doors to create a water effect, but how do you get the shield doors to lay flat (horizontal). Every time I try the doors either stand straight up, or swing down into the map. Can anybody help me?

    Hello, and welcome to ForgeHub. The Forging 101 forum threads have a plethora of tips and tricks for you to peruse. I would suggest reading some of the threads over there; they definitely helped me when I first started forging.

    To answer your question, use the save & quit (S&Q) method. It is described in great detail over in Forging 101 (try the interlocking or floating objects threads).

    hold the item where u want it, while holding it save the game and end the game, then start the same map and the item will be stationary where you held/saved it

    Yes, if you go over to 'Forging 101' on the home page, look at 'Advanced Floating'. This will answer your question.
    Good luck with your map!
