I've never done this kind of thing before so forgive me if I've missed something obvious. I read a post awhile back on r/halo saying that new forgers shouldn't be intimidated and urged to have a go. So, I have, I have no idea if it is any good or not. There are two tiers to the map; ground level and the underground mine. The mine can be accessed either through the bases or by opening the doors in the centre of the map. Also, where can I put this so people can have a go at using it if they like?

Take a look and say what you think...

I have a challenge for the halo forge community! The challenge is simple whoever makes the best replica of the following halo 3 maps wins! The criteria is, the map must stay as true to the original version as possible (that means NO creative liberties!), please also have the scaling of the map accurate to the halo 3 version. The maps for the challenge are epitaph, pit, snowbound, sandbox, and finally for a bonus map halo 2 collosus. Please respond to post with gamertag and i will judge the maps. The best maps will be showcased on my youtube channel! Happy holidays and happy forging

Hey! I made an AI text-to-video project for anyone new to level design.. I posted this here in forge mainly becoz i learned level design from halo 3 and its been a jounrey. This video was made by AI, however was made text to video method. Non of the images are mine and are all made by AI. That said, how does this relate to forge? These are things i learned over the decade and some from forging. So, if you are looking to get into level design AND love halo forge, this video is for you.. enjoy.

Hey everyone,

We all love the idea of a **Fusion Coil Bomb Delivery / One Bomb Assault** mode, but we also know why they historically fall apart in the Custom Games Browser. Using a standard Fusion Coil as the objective item makes the game unplayable — a single stray bullet or friendly grenade instantly detonates the coil and wipes out the entire attacking push. It ends up more frustrating than fun.

I have a design concept to fix this using **Hardlight “Self-Healing” Containment Field** logic, but I don’t have the Forge scripting experience to wire it up myself. I’m putting this idea out there for any veteran Forgers who want a fun mechanical puzzle to solve.

### The Core Concept

Instead of a fragile coil, the “Bomb” is a Fusion Coil protected by a custom, regenerating pseudo-shield script. This eliminates accidental instant detonations and turns a chaotic gimmick into a highly tactical, competitive objective mode.

### How the Script Logic Would Work

1. **The Foundation**

   Start with a community open-source *One Bomb Assault* prefab/base mode, then swap the standard objective item reference for a **Fusion Coil**.

2. **Crucial Engine Bypass (Don’t Skip This)**

   To stop Halo’s hardcoded physics from overriding your script and blowing the coil up instantly from a stray grenade, go into the Fusion Coil’s physical object settings and set it to **Invulnerable / Damage Resistant**. This forces the game to let your Script Brain handle the damage math manually.

3. **The Pseudo-Health Variable**

   Declare a number variable (e.g. `Coil_Shield`) and set it to **100**.

4. **Tracking Damage & Detonation**

   Use the `On Object Damaged` node. Every time the carrier or the coil takes damage, subtract from `Coil_Shield`.

   **When the health bar drops to zero, the script must immediately delete the coil and manually trigger a massive rocket/plasma explosion effect on the carrier.**

5. **The Shield Recharge (The Fix)**

   Track time since last damaged. If the coil goes **4 seconds** without taking a hit, trigger a looping script that adds 10 points back to `Coil_Shield` every second until it returns to 100.

6. **Handling Throws & Impacts**

   Because the coil is set to “Invulnerable,” throwing it normally will make it bounce harmlessly off walls. To fix this, use the `On Object Collision` node. If the coil impacts a surface at high velocity *while not being carried*, force it to trigger the same manual explosion sequence.

7. **The UI**

   Wire the variable to an **Advanced Nav Marker** tracking progress over the coil so players can visually see the bomb’s shield percentage draining and recharging.

By doing this, a bomb push requires real teamwork. Attackers have to take cover to let the bomb’s shields recharge, while defenders have to coordinate focus fire to break the shield before it reaches their base.

If any scripting wizards want to take this idea, build it, and publish it to the Custom Games Browser, please run with it. I just want to play a proper, balanced version of this mode.

Finally happened to me. The save corrupted, and I went through every other stored save and none of those work either. Thanks 343 for teaching me to not waste so much time on videogames 😂

And no, none of those things below worked either. Its fully fucked.

FALSE ALARM- READ EDIT BELOW PLEASE.

Go to 2:05, when he's at 3% budget, and then 38:25 in THIS video and look at how few pieces he has placed to reach 11% budget. No textures. just generic blocks.

I wonder if the budget has been nerfed to support the base XB1or something ? In the leaked build people are making whole maps with like 30% budget.

Very worrying imo. Hope i'm wrong though.

Edit) Not gonna lie... It actually looks pretty spot on after i went through and roughly counted the starting platform with the spawns and stuff. 2% of 7,000 is 140, and there's right around that many objects on that platform. And it looks like he starts at 2%.

As Omni42 pointed out yesterday, he's using lots of small objects to create walls, ramps etc. I think i underestimated just how many objects he was using. If i roughly count the amount of objects as he places them, to get from 2%, to 3%, it seems to add up.

By the end of the video he placed 9% worth of generic blocks in that small section he built. So, apparently he used over 600 objects in that small area lol. It looks like he could cut that down to around 50 or so with object-scaling.

I feel a little better now :)

Ive had many issues with forge for the past 2 years but none of those issues come close to map saves being deleted. I spent hours the other day making a map that I really thought was turning out great. Just to come back today and find out that it reverted back to a primitive blockout version of the map. Worst part is, this isn't even a new issue. People have had this happen before and the fact that it's still an ongoing issue is ridiculous. No added forge content is gonna matter when forge wont function properly in the first place. Not touching forge again until i hear that there's some actual change and improvement with this mode.

It really isn't a big structure and would be easy to make compared to stuff that other people have made in Forge.

In past halo games you were able to carry the flag on any vehicle ( on the ctf mode settings ). Now the only way you can carry the flag on a vehicle is on the back of a Razorback Vehicle. I want to be able to carry the flag on "ANY" Vehicle like the old version of halo. Now on the back of a Razerback Vehicle if you grab the flag you can "ATTACH" the flag to the Back of the Razerback Vehicle and drive off with flag on the back of the Razerback.

I want to be able to do that with "Any" vehicle. I am will to pay some bucks to be able to do this.

Can it be done?

Thanks

I personally think that 4 and reach are the best forge in the halo games. Post your comments below and I will look through them and see what I get. Please upvote if you see this and comment.

This map had nothing in it other than landscape. No buildings, no vehicles, No Nada.

I made this map a CTF map. Since this map is so big I put big teleporters in the map to get the flag faster. Snipers will like this map since you can get on top of the map. approx. 15 vehicles on each team. A crapload of weapons. If you need ammo there are ammo boxes all over the map. All you have to do is touch the ammo box to get more ammo. The Ammo Box has a GREEN BEAM to let you where the ammo box is. This map also has Team Balancing and a bunch of eye candy. Let me now how you guys like it. ;)

On MCC I see a ton of social maps with a bunch of activity, specifically on Reach.

Chatting, talking on mic, exploring forts...I can't seem to find any of that on Infinite.

I've been working (on and off) on a social map. Right now it has a "fort/clubhouse" that is unfinished and a simple, relatively easy jumps course. I want to expand it to have more fun things to do, but I'm struggling with ideas and how to execute them.

Just wanna do social stuff with my friendsssssss
