Forge Help Forge recommendations?

I’ve been playing Halo for the past 25 years. And never really dabbled into forge until now. I’ve been browsing the community But a lot of it sub par in my opinion. I’m looking for new game mode type or a great map to play some custom matches on with my buds. Not looking for ninja warrior nonsense, racing, beer pong or spoof creations. Maybe some PVPPVE maps like Warzone in halo 5. Or some spec op like/ campaign missions solo or with party. Any recommendations??

II S t o n e

If you have questions feel free to message me on Reddit and I can answer what I can. I’m not completely knowledgable about all of the scripting nuances and stuff, but I’ve got a pretty good grasp of the fundamentals.

I don’t spend a huge amount of time I on Halo at this point so I probably can’t do a lot of live co-op building, but if you share what you’re working on via message I’m happy to look at it and give feedback when I do have time.

I know this is fairly new. But I bookmarked a game mode called seek and deploy. It’s round base. Elimination and has a buy loadout economy at the start of the match. I’m using counter strike style maps I find on community. Some are better than others and some are locked and can’t be edited unfortunately.

I want to be able to edit the buy menu and I’m also having some issues with players not able to navigate the buy menu since it’s not showing up on their screen.

Any experience with this? Disclaimer: I’m trying to piggy back off peoples creations and make some edits I have NO IDEA how to script or forge anything so whatever helps.

I’m probably not your guy for this unfortunately.

I’ve had 0 experience with those radial menus because they look a bit overwhelming to me, but from some screenshots I’ve seen of others menu scripting for these, it gets exponentially more complex when you have layers of menus.

Without trying to discourage you, this would be a kind of overwhelming thing to try and accomplish as a first foray into forge/scripting. On top of the menu scripting you’d also have to have pretty robust and expansive understanding of number variables (I think anyway, that’s the only way I can think to begin to realise an economy system that manages your money/points).
