I have a feeling you are going to be very popular when the Forge Prefabs feature launches.

Impressive! Was that a pain to script? I think I remember you talking about using script brains to coordinate set pieces.

I have about three Script Brains set up: one for fast interactions (two 1.80 second intervals for a total of 3.60), one for "normal" interactions (five 2.40 second intervals for a total of 12 seconds - the ivory tower lifts use this method), and one for long interactions (two 6.40 second intervals for a total of 12.80). The Mass Driver is scripted such that Kilo (interval 2 of the long interaction brain) triggers a bunch of explosives to immediately blow up, rotates the cylinder quickly and sends back the "hammer" quickly, in addition to spawning extra smoke. On Juliet (interval 1 of the long interaction brain) the cylinder and hammer slowly wind back up, the extra smoke despawns, and the explosives respawn.
tl;dr SCRIPT BRAINS, BITCH

Thank you!!
Did you guys see this? http://www.forgehub.com/maps/mlg-zealot.1368/
It was built on Truth outside the map. Really awesome use of that area.

groups seem to be working completely fine now. i still had a few hiccups earlier but the last few times i've rebooted my map, my groups have not all been stuck together.

hey, psss, look at deez
this is not an official declaration or anything, but my latest project is finished, the coming out party will probably be this weekend (lots of playtesting, forgehub postings, etc) but if you happen to come across my files.. take a look
thanks to centurion and nok for late night piece consolidation

Did you check out the new Ring pieces?
Thanks.
Is it a physical object that players would manipulate? Or is it an area effect like a kill volume? Can players see it in game? How is it typically used in forge?

From previous Halos: Yes, but not able to manipulate; yes, but is a visible volume.

Glad to see you're using toned down colors this time around.
I thought you could already do this, but only for the last Forge map played?
Nah just tried it to make sure, my custom game doesn't show up in the theatre list.

yeah, unfortunately none of which helped with optimization : /

When's the next forge testing/fragfest? I wanna help test your maps and try out other finished maps. Halo 5's community is making maps that make me interested in playing lol
Not from me until Saturday at the earliest, unfortunately.
My internet connection is suffering from 46% packet loss so i keep getting kicked out of game. It took 5 tries to successfully update a forge map.

No problem mate. Sorry to hear that--very frustrating.
I have a map that I'm working on, but I'm new to these spawns so hopefully I can figure those out.

Has anyone else been getting a bug in Forge lately where the session "locks up" in the same way some customs will? If I exit Monitor mode I can't go back into it, can't save, lighting explodes, and if I wait long enough the game crashes. Doesn't seem to actually lose me any data, mind you, but it seems odd that it's just now starting to happen.
Not sure what the lock up in customs is, but it sounds similar to when almost all my meters were near full.
User 73706

The lockup in customs is somewhat similar, where "time freezes" and everyone's temporarily ejected into their own instance of the server, all the other players are stuck / running into walls, your grenades never deplete, counter stops, etc.
I'm in the middle of optimizing my map (which was at the 1024 limit) but it was the only maxed out meter - even lightmap was at like 96% - so that might be it.
EDIT: the 240 scripts probably don't help, either.

Lol @ script count.
I forged for 8 hours last night and didn't encounter the issue you described. Had a server shutdown, but luckily I save constantly.

Fivewinder first version is done!
Finally posted my H1 Sidewinder remake on Forgehub. Full description can be found there but the general idea is that it's H1 Sidewinder with some new ideas and some Avalanche influence. Primarily built for BTB team CTF.

Picture Album
A few clips thrown together for a tour.
There's more I want to do and I'm not certain everything is working as I want it to, but I've just got to stop spending time on it! It's eating up all the time I'm supposed to be spending on other things.
Please put your pics in quotes so that they dont dominate the page fullscreen haha.
Besides that, I really like your aesthetics and color choices!

Woah Sik, looks like a high end mansion now... with tile and everything! How much of the play is on the outside? Obviously that railgun is going to be contested for

Ah, so that's how you do that.
I've swapped it for a Plasma Caster. For some reason, the weapon pad kept ignoring the timer and spawned way too often, despite being set at 120 seconds.

Been optimizing Nightingale a little more and found room for another Mass Driver or two:
For the sake of not having explosions going off every 5 seconds, I'll probably only have one articulate, though.

yeah, i still dont have the heart to fix my longshore
im going to have to move the entire map because of those glitched warthogs, and i am having a hard time finding the motivation..
sigh, tmrw I will try again so it can be ready for everyone this weekend
between "launching" longshore and rats nest projects, i have alot of
work to do
@homeboy, i actually was gunna make a secret sneak peek vid just for you, but i did 3 takes and i either missed a normal jump and looked stupid, or took waaaay too long for a 'sneak peek' on all 3 and i was already reeling from the warthog BS

I love the curves, but it feels open. Would need to play on it, so will queue it up for tonight.

Yeah I was hoping the update might have unfucked the hogs, but it didn't.
This might be a bit presumptuous of me, but if I take a clip and tweet for halp to Tom French, think he'd look at it?
