Good ideas, thinking outside of the box like an exterior designer. I implement the "Big object small detail" thing as well. Using curved walls I mainly give a smooth surface but they run out quickly so im forced to use ramps.
For those of you interested in more details, check out the THFE blog. There we will be posting additional pictures and videos as teasers for our upcoming projects such as the final release of this map
i find that the one part of the island, where the base connects to the rocky area is a little narrow, sometimes players with DMRs will camp narrow areas making it impossible to get past. It all depends on your spawn locations.
@GameMythics I'm not sure what happened to the render process, all these video editing programs seem have problems. I have personally gone through 4 of them and each have their own unique problem/glitch. This one decided to not render HD... sigh.
@V1rtualFlod I have yet to see an issue arrise over this so far. In the second phase spartans spawn behind the sattelite buildings and arent able to immediately camp that choke point. Elites spawn in the caves by that choke point in phase 2 and can pretty easily beat back campers. Elites also have access to 2 ghosts, a revenant, and a wraith which will definetly help them out
@MrChaos117 The basic satellite is just three wall coner pieces put together to form a parabolic shape. Then you have an antenna small piece sticking out of the middle of the parabola.
@KennethMcCormik I usually have a general idea I want and kind of just forge as I go from that central idea. Sometimes though I do have a plan on paper before hand but that is pretty rare
nah they I already have two up front and one more in the back would be redundant and a little expensive. Unless you mean a human turret you can actually use. There will be 3 in the final version
@XxC0ldH3artxX I tend to make Invasion, Infection and Aesthetic maps so down the road we will probably do another forge tutorial series for making an infection map. Along the way we will have a long list of stand alone episodes showing you giuys how to build various things and giving you all some inspiration. Examples of what we will show you how to build: battleships, air vehicles, land vehicles, urban settings, beach resorts, outdoor details, military buildings, basic structures, etc...
@Supermario0727 I can actually try doing a covenant theme thing in the future. Currently I do have a tutorial for building a covenant dropship as part of a "building air vehicles" video which should be coming up soon
There are two more parts in the video. Part 4 finishes major construction and Part 5 covers objectives, spawning, weapons etc... We have already tested this map once and it has undergone some minor revisions. We will continue to test this map is custom lobbies this coming week and the next. Once we feel it is ready, we will present the completed version to you all and have it up for download
@peterslay This is not an uncommon practice in map making. Often power weapons spawn in vulnerable locations and there is a tradeoff in going for them. think of rockets in ivory tower which is on the very low ground
@RivalMass ya, it defends on where the spawns are. But i will never build an invasion map using the cave, because its too narrow and i had one map where i built there and the defenders camped. I had to push everything back, took hours.
@XxC0ldH3artxX I have never tried to make a phantom but could experiment. If I come up with a nice covenant air vehicle at a relatively low cost that is easy to recreate I will host that in a tutorial video
wow! this is awesome! question: when you forge, do you construct your whole map in your head first, or do you just build stuff that comes into your mind?
@zadydema yeah no problem. I try and answer alot of questions and if people have alot of questions about one thing I will take that into account for mking my next videos. Also I have used feedback from you guys already in tweaking the map
wow i really hate that youtube is doing the loading thing cuz i want to see what oakley hi def is doing but i can barely watch without it loading and lagging
@RivalMass Can you teach us how to make a phantom? I'm making a map where the Elites raid a UNSC ship, and they have to fight through the hangar, a hallway, the bridge, and back to the hangar where a Non- working phantom will be. I want it so that the Elite with the flag will have to climb onto the Phantom to win.
how do you get such smooth motions when you are moving an item down? because what happens to me is that whenever I press the down button (no matter how light I press) it jumps like half a foot down. is it something to do with forge controls? please respond I would like to make better forge maps :)
@bortherofdarkness No, 'cos the defenders' objective is to stop the attacker from completing their objective. The attackers can have as many objectives as you like, but any more than two begins to slow down gameplay in my experience, as it divides the team too much.
@clonemaster the way I know how to do it is to go to custom game then go down to game options and then do whatever you want to do when creating your game.
wow thank you so much oklay this helped me outstandingly and im still confused on how you built bunker complex that was awesome i serch this crap forever that has a smooth nice fluid map like your so five stars and thumbs up
For fuck's sake... This is like an example map to show how to make an invasion map properly. This "tutorial" map looks effing incredible. Thanks, now I feel like an 8 year old who makes out of line shitty houses... (and trolls, no, I'm not mad, I'm just very impressed) xD
@xAMID3ADII Well I posted the link on my channel...but Im not sure it works. search "SJ Shark Byte" on Bungie.net and go to my fileshare. i have the regular and hardcore versions there.

@Swiftglitcher28 the tunnels are used for mobility in cover but they were a bit too small to implement in a crucial design part of the map

Best Forge tutorials ever made, I love this! ^_^
You are a good forger, very inventive and also precise.

your 'light' in the indoor sattalite structure should have been like a flashing red light, like an alarm, would've been a cool decor.

really sorted out the "s" whistling sound in this vid thanks
@RivalMass ya, it defends on where the spawns are. But i will never build an invasion map using the cave, because its too narrow and i had one map where i built there and the defenders camped. I had to push everything back, took hours.
@legoking121 in the final version feel free to just use the bunker part of the map if you like
gotta love forge time with oakley hi-def :3
@XxC0ldH3artxX I have never tried to make a phantom but could experiment. If I come up with a nice covenant air vehicle at a relatively low cost that is easy to recreate I will host that in a tutorial video
@TheAmericanDiablo its all in the timing. Sorry to say there is no voice activated forge glitch out there
I used Brace larges to build something and it helped a lot
@TheHaloForgeEpidemic Do you have that good of timing when you say your going to add something and something appears on screen or do you have a trick.
@MrCommandomonkey just push in the thumbstick (I think right) and it will make all motions smoother
@TheHaloForgeEpidemic are you going to teach us how to make different types of maps?
Like you said, can you do an episode devoted to a gun show (where you make guns out of forge pieces) cheers
Great videos by the way
wow! this is awesome!
question: when you forge, do you construct your whole map in your head first, or do you just build stuff that comes into your mind?
@TheHaloForgeEpidemic Question: Can you make a video on umlimited money and/ or items?
when you finish the map you should show a gameplay video to see this in action.
you should put a supply building on that little island
You better make this a final, official map.
@SarujinieUras yeah but sadly lights are $250 and I don't have the money to spare
@zadydema yeah no problem. I try and answer alot of questions and if people have alot of questions about one thing I will take that into account for mking my next videos. Also I have used feedback from you guys already in tweaking the map

"This Blockade.......uhhh Bear."
was he saying "Barrier"?
wow i really hate that youtube is doing the loading thing cuz i want to see what oakley hi def is doing but i can barely watch without it loading and lagging

this map is amaziinnng but couldnt u add at least 1 turret?
@TheHaloForgeEpidemic Hey do you know if it is possible to make more then 3 parts of an invasion game? like 5+?
Brace Larges r really helping me forge better, but wat happnd to the tunnels
Awesome vid, cant wait for the next one!
how did you do that all the stuff spawns, right when you talk about it ?! =)
@Padge92 its set on spawn time and place at start false, then he just times it right
i love his use of braces
could you please make a tutorial on a covenant invasion based theme.Please..
@bortherofdarkness No, 'cos the defenders' objective is to stop the attacker from completing their objective. The attackers can have as many objectives as you like, but any more than two begins to slow down gameplay in my experience, as it divides the team too much.
Hm... Did I miss what he did for the tunnel? :(
@clonemaster the way I know how to do it is to go to custom game then go down to game options and then do whatever you want to do when creating your game.
You should be an architect.
awesome videos man can't wait to try it out
wow thank you so much oklay this helped me outstandingly and im still confused on how you built bunker complex that was awesome i serch this crap forever that has a smooth nice fluid map like your so five stars and thumbs up
@Tipgoifaf I think it just stayed a tunnel.
what is that window in the second bunker in the last episode?
@dolerbom 3 phases are the maximum
Yeah msn like godsregret says "its all about style points"
you know what they should make crear mode in halo like when you put the block that has roof ,walls and floor there is clear mode that its empty inside
now they need to put grunt squads or elites that you can spawn
@N00BisHemmy last of what dude? i mean he still has to talk about objectives, spawns, etc.
Anyone else really excited to just play this map??
@RivalMass
nice let me know when
Could you put up a download link for like a day?
how many parts are left
you should play the map after its complete show a lil gameplay
Where you in Team Epiphany
@AquaGiant but you should post your game though
can you do spawning because my map sucks because of spawning
What's this map called and where can I get it?
yeah, and also put it up on file share cause its AWESOME!!! :DDD
@RivalMass i meant a human turret
@clonemaster84 sorry i am on my iPod and I forgot to add the 84 when I say responding, sorry.
@Padge92 yea
No HD... :(
"This blockade....this...bear...."
XD
Cant wait for #4 :D
Awesome video
@TheHaloForgeEpidemic can i have this map please
@RivalMass Its would be awesome though.
@RivalMass Thanks :)
How can we help you play test?
For fuck's sake... This is like an example map to show how to make an invasion map properly. This "tutorial" map looks effing incredible. Thanks, now I feel like an 8 year old who makes out of line shitty houses... (and trolls, no, I'm not mad, I'm just very impressed) xD
@66overlord thanks that helps
@iijeriichoiiwanabe naw carp he said it was fake to make it look better
or vehickle building
@xeewon
alright, then he really has a good timing =)
I am always sad when these end :( (:
You should get way more people so you can make faster videos. Make a capture the flag map!
