For anybody who wants to make Hunters actually fun to fight in halo infinite. Litteraly just set their health to be closer to the bungie games expect Reach or Odst lol

#

And then get one of the two hunters to prefer melee attacks if you get close enough

real oar
#

whats a hunter?

flint flicker
#

From my own experimentation with applying Traits to AI units, you cannot set the health. You can Add Bonus Health, or you can change Damage Resistance

#

So you could set the base damage resistance to 0.8, which means that take 20% more damage

pearl robin
#

i wish they would add those mechs into the game and the artillary gun from reach. it gets kinda boring playing with the current weapons in forge as they are designed to be competitive. i do miss me the conc rifle too

#

i found out how to fly a sabre and pelican but its a prefab and dont know how to make it respawn

#

"welded" prefab

flint flicker
#

There's a lot of Legacy Content that they could add that would be nice for customs but I don't think we're going to get any of it in Infinite

#

Can you reference the welded parent object in the script, and use it with Spawn Object ?

worldly ore
#

Here's how I did it

#

Get whatever AI you wanna change

#

Set their squad label and go into the nodegraph and start with "On squad spawned with squad label"

#

Connect it to "for each object"

#

Link it up to the "Set Object health"

vivid siren
#

Ding ding ding

#

That said, you can only set it values equal or lesser than that unit's max health.

worldly ore
#

Yeah

#

Than you would use ai trait bonus health

flint flicker
#

ah right. duh.
I was doing that before traits came out to try and make Breserkers into a pretend Flood form. Their health regenerates super fast though, so by the time they got to me, they had fully healed lol.
Do hunters have any health regen then?

#

So I had to poll every unit, check their health value based off their character type, and set their health down if they had healed above my desired percentage

#

So yeah. Traits are nice.

To thank players for their patience during recent server issues, the Halo Infinite team will be increasing the Daily XP reward this weekend. Between August 16-20, the second Daily Challenge will reward 2000 XP (up from 500 XP). This was the exact message from halo support

Actually this issue was fixed today at 3:00 if your having issues still try restating your device

#

What are the most optimal skybox settings for night time (halo infinite)

zinc gull
#

im not sure. the skybox settings can be tested pretty quickly in a test map while in forge mode. Just experiment with diff skybox and generate lighting each time to test. The trickier part is finding the lighting objects and setting up the level's light probing that fits the map's night theme while also not being too dark where it's too difficult to see or spot enemies, after all the map's objects have been placed.

also i recommend setting all Enemy AI Spawners to Team 4 Valkirie, so they can be detected by things like marking callouts and threat sensors. if they are set to Neutral team they cannot be spotted in this manner. Being a night map you can really take advantage of those equipment itll add a nice playstyle to the map

#

@whole cloak imo a night map doesnt have to be overwhelmingly dark just have a darkish skybox where you can see the stars and stuff. where the players are playing it can be lit very well by moderate skylight or light bounce and specific light objects. think Two Betrayals in Halo 1 its a night level but not super hard to see stuff

#

if u want u can look at my Snow Spear campaign level, if u like the night look it has, ill send picture of skybox settings

whole cloak
#

Ok cool

#

@zinc gull I think the lighting on my map is fine but I don’t like how bright the stars are do you know how to fix this?

Can anyone point me to a good source of forge tutorials to get a grip.
Haven't used forge much since reach and 4s Island days. It's pretty robust and I've worked on ue and unity in the past so I'll need some help adjusting.
Have a few old paper designs for abandoned maps id like to rework into something functional in infinites sandbox.

If you're signed in with your MS account, you can bookmark the map in the browser there.
Then in game, there's a tab for bookmarks when selecting a map.
If you don't want to log in, you can:
In the game, set up a Custom Game, and when you're selecting the map there's an option to search. Type in Lockout and it'll come up

river hearth
flint flicker
#

IDK what is often played on the Custom Game Browser

but check that

otherwise you have to create your own custom game, and you can set the lobby to Public for it to show up in the browser. Best of luck getting people to join without a starting party tho

IMPORTANT INFO.

Idk what 343 did but apparently now. If a Ai riding a banshee has something to shoot at in the air, it will control it smoothly staying focused on the target while still alive.

#

You don't need to trap your Banshee or set up some super complex script

Key note: for this to work, your ai driving has to be set to follow what ever they're shooting at in the air

#

Is this a w from 343?

zinc gull
#

hm if u place an object above the nav mesh (i guess that counts as Air) and tell AI pilots to target the obj they will fly proper? Will they break off and shoot guys on nav mesh/floor?

worldly ore
#

Idk I've only tested with it with a phantom

#

Like I made a phantom stay in 1 place and the banshees kept attacking it till the phantom blew up and then the banshees left

#

:)

zinc gull
#

it's interesting, would be fun if the phantom can be a sort of tanky/invincible magnet keeping the banshees in attack range, even better if they sometimes break off and shoot other stuff in the way.

worldly ore
#

I was able to code some kind of similarity to the "The Arbiter" mission

#

I had a phantom set up to go in a scripted path while you had enemy banshees coming at you and the phantom

#

It was really good 😮

#

I couldn't get Ally banshees to follow you since they really ever start controlling the Banshee when they see an enemy

#

I might have to set up it to where Ally Banshees will attack this 1 group and when they die, another group spawns by so you get the illusion of them following you

#

Hah "Follow" Reference

#

IMPORTANT: THEY WILL ONLY ATTACK AERIAL VEHICLES SO FAR LIKE YOU PILOTING A BANSHEE OR WASP OR A PHANTOM

#

anyone run into the problem on a new round AI kept instantly respawning and then dying after? it crashed the game when it did this

zinc gull
#

im not sure why but maybe depends on how theyre scripted to spawn. maybe some interaction or vs of on game start vs on round start, if on round start is a node i am not sure. i usually trigger AI later on not at game/round start
perhaps a similar issue like how Restarting a match will bug scripts, so End game and relaunching from lobby is necessary for scripted maps

pearl robin
#

so i did on round start instead

pearl robin
#

How do you kill a specific squad, Cant find the node to attach to "squad" on the** kill squad** node.

flint flicker
#

depends. Why do you want to to get that specific squad

#

easiest way is to track them from On Squad Spawned with label

#

then set them to a squad variable. Get that variable later and then kill squad

#

If you need it to be squads in an area, use an area monitor, get AI in that area, and then get the squad from them

pearl robin
zinc gull
#

i found 1 way of doing it but mayb there is a more efficient method

true rain
#

Or just get squad variable

pearl robin
#

Thanks for help guys here is the script i ended up doing with it. pelican dropping off Marines Via Generic Zone and when the zone is captured again it will kill the Squad tied to the script https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKc0UqIQsxg been wanting to do this for a BTB map. now i can finally make the map lol

I don't know if this has been said at any point, but based on my experience with Forge maps, i want to repost this image here and suggest this to the forge community; Please ensure that your maps have proper cubemaps that are placed frequently around your map's locations and are as bright as day! I know it's a tedious and trial and error process, but cubemaps/reflective surfaces help liven up the graphics in your map, especially if you're using metals, glass, and other reflective materials, it will also prevent the Spartan's visor and reflective armor coatings from being completely black as they also depend on proper cubemapping support as seen in this example here:
https://i.imgur.com/Co0hYMX.png

Most Forge maps i've played on, even ones by UneeQ and co., tend to have very few, very dark, and/or no cubemaps at all, which really bugs me because it makes it difficult when you want to take cool screenshots or do machinima, and generally causes a harsher contrast on lighting and shading for materials that are supposed to be metallic and reflective!

gleaming oriole
# ember oyster I don't know if this has been said at any point, but based on my experience with...

This is really good advice. And since I helped build that Construct map in your screenshot I feel called out lol. Mind you it was a while ago and have learned a lot since then (I think). Definitely try to get good reflections built in to our maps now with the Reflection Volume placements. This is a good reminder to go back and do that. I think at one point the lighting was going to get redone there.

But the least I can do is get that fixed for you. If there are any others of ours that you have feedback about that please let me know I can put it on the to-do list!

ember oyster
#

Oh hey! Great to see you here! 🖐️😀

Personally, i do prefer your guys' version of Construct over the version 343i used as it's a more faithful recreation of the original rather than just a 'Zeta Halo' version of Construct (which is fine, just not what i wanted), so i was kinda peeved when i saw that everything looked so dull when the actual design and details looked so good

I just hope my advice didn't come off as harsh in any way or if it makes you feel pressured to go back and fix it if you don't want to! (This goes for other Forgers too, as i just wanted to give advice on a particular part of map design that doesn't seem like common knowledge around these parts)

gleaming oriole
#

Nope it's all good here I have been meaning to do that for a long while it's just slipped my mind. Thanks for the compliments too. We definitely went a bit wilder for this one but tried to stay true to the original layout. I will use it as an opportunity to put Headhunter support in to the map as well.

ember oyster
#

It's understandable to miss out on the reflection volumes if you're new and still getting the hang of Forge, it's not like they're out in the open with an explanation as to what they do or how they work, unfortunately

ember oyster
gleaming oriole
#

there is sounds to that if you stand on the ledge over looking while it is opening. it's very difficult to get loud audio to play from a location in this unfortunately and we miss out on the volume control.

#

that was one of the first things I scripted in this game. Can probably do a much better job now but I learned a lot and it was fun to try and come up with a "opening curtain" as I called it to use scripting in an epic way.

#

The cool part is that all the pillars are randomized in the speed, final resting place, and heights. So while the ending result is similar across playthroughs, no two skyboxes should be exactly alike. Same with the sentinels flying.

ember oyster

#

Good to hear from you as one the devs of this particular recreation, and i wish you and the other devs the best of luck on updating this map as well as whatever future projects you guys might have planned! 😁👍

#

I like checking out reactions of classic maps, and while i don't know if Construct is really considered "classic", it is good to see it get some attention

gleaming oriole
#

you're right that it isn't common knowledge. worth sharing PSA about reflection volumes and what the result is.

zinc gull
#

What's a cubemap? Collection of lights or reflect volumes? If there a reference for the technique?
I use reflection volumes but cubemap is new term for me.
Lots of times my maps r big so I just make 1 or 2 reflection volumes with massive dimensions bc they can't be rotated so reaching all forged "corners" evenly is weird sometimes. I thought 1 huge reflection volume has same effect as many am I mistaken?

ember oyster
#

'cubemap' is a pretty common term when developing in a 3D game engine, but games like Halo CE and Halo 2 refer to them as a 'reflection map', and Halo Infinite refers to them as a 'reflection volume'

#

One big reflection volume may be quick and easy, but it doesn't show a level of quality or professionalism when reflective objects in an area are reflecting some other area entirely, this can also be problematic in dark areas and your only reflection is something that shows a bright area

#

I don't know if Halo Infinite also darkens reflections based on the general lighting of an area (like in CE and 2), but if it doesn't, and your one cubemap reflects a bright area, it may cause the reflective objects to glow in dark areas

#

Having just enough reflection volumes, if not many, can make up for the lack of a good and reliable 'real time reflections' shader in 3D video games, and are much less costly to render as it's all just sets of pre-rendered textures

#

However, the thing about cubemaps/reflection volumes being pre-rendered textures does mean that whenever you change and update parts of your map, you'll have to re-render (re-compile?) the reflections when you're all done so that you're not seeing earlier builds of your work in the reflections

#

Maybe a good rule of thumb to have when placing these volumes is to set their size so that they fit each room and hallway, and just sprinkle them throughout larger or open areas, making sure that each volume's boundaries are touching or going through one another so that there's no gaps between them where the reflections will just disappear

#

While it's bothersome that the boundaries can't be rotated, if you're trying to fix a reflection volume along a ramp for example, you can instead try to form a staircase formation with multiple volumes and just adjust them so that their boundaries aren't spilling out into unwanted areas

zinc gull
#

great tips this topic definitely deserves its own thread in #1231006639633469490 imo. can u or green copy paste your comments there to help future people and be permanent guide? or i can with credit to u

#

fortunately i made a later map in line with the boundary dimensions of the reflect volumes dimension lol bc it was so annoying when off it. so thnx for tips i will use more volumes per map area/theme

zinc gull
#

Hm I tried adding more volumes per "area" on a Forerunner map but wasn't worth it, seemed to make it look worse. For ex even when volume boundary intersect I saw a visible difference in color/light on them bc the two areas are clashing instead of sharing light into a blend, now there are more intersecting area bc more volumes, so more clashes.

Also my Forerunner stuff generally has low roughness so several volumes resulted in darker look on many surfaces, guess cuz map wasnt sharing light? and the lower roughness doesnt really absorb light like high roughness. Idk 2 giant ones ust looks better so far maybe bc my map is a very simple desert bus layout with lots of shiny Forerunner objects

gleaming oriole
# zinc gull Hm I tried adding more volumes per "area" on a Forerunner map but wasn't worth i...

Yes there are a number of tips and tricks to using them "correctly" as they can be finnicky. Things like blend distance, over top, intensity, etc. within the Reflection Volume settings all matter and should be adjusted as needed.

Also worth mentioning that each of the Forge canvases have a default invisible Reflection Volume that generates the cubemaps. They are located at 0,0,1000 on the maps. This can be the cause of some issues if that spot is stuck inside a emissive or some dark geo.

With blending some times you can be strategic where the seams are if any within doorways or transition spaces, or hide them otherwise. But you can play around with the blend distance to make that less obvious.

#

Also worth mentioning setting up your reflection volumes can make the existing lighting look bad, because you based your lighting off the incorrect reflections. So you often need to establish a reflection cubemap and global lighting setup first, then do the rest of your lighting based off that.

Think of it like trying to change the canvas background of a painting after you've already painted. The colours will blend differently.

#

If you find it is making an area too bright, you can lower the intensity of the reflection volume also.

#

Remember we have a limit of 15 total Reflection Volumes plus the global unmovable one.

#

An advanced technique is to fake a small environment that mimics the lighting conditions of a big room, put that under the map, then place the reflection volume inside that. This can help if you are having trouble with emissives or bright bleeding into the reflection bake. You can also use this trick for the global volume in some cases.

#

Check out Isolation remake in forge to see an example of that.

zinc gull
#

dang u make good points i havent ever messed with reflection volume properties i dont even know what they do 😆 that would be cool to experiment with i forget they exist
thx
also my map is very high on forge canvas, super high that if i place phantom spawners in higher spot of map, they insta die in sky bc of forge canvas top limit lol I have to do a prefab trick okom explained to gradually adjust

ember oyster

I guess they just have to be much more spread out then

#1279561767017648291

pearl robin
#

either ive been doing it right but also i usually dont make all metal maps, but i usually just use one reflection volume and max out its boundary and its blend distance to 1000, i usually use enamel smooth ( now forunner flat or something like that ) and do the roughness to 0 and black, looks like a black glossed marble table.

hi kinda new in forge

#

i have done a map with firefight mode

#

i set the swpaner ia

#

but the ia is not moving

#

any idea what i am missing?

zinc gull
#

The spawners prob need a AI Move Zone assigned to them

#

if FF KOTH they prob need another obj property that assigns the Hill as a move zone or something, ive never made a FF King of the Hill map, i just do campaign style

gleaming oriole
#

you would only need the firefight stuff in the middle, phantoms (if your map can support them), AI spawners, 5 hills, 5 hill zones, and 5 move zones for each hill.

humble crystal
#

How is it that you can't spawn AI in both mires and depths maps any fix for those maps in the future?

magic flower
humble crystal
#

Let me see if that works cause there have been times that my game either crashes or freezes

pearl robin
#

if its in the air, different story, remove the nav cutters around the map if you are making a map on mires that is in the air.

#

i recently made a map on mires using the full maplayout, i cannot generate the nav mesh at all again, i even placed many nav cutters on rocks and other things to try to make it work, still wont, has somthing to do with the ground difference of the rivers or somthing not sure. if you want to make a ground mires map, make sure to set up a blue print of your map layout and then do the AI move zones and bot move areas ETC and regenerating the map before actually making the map itself, only way it will work.

share some pics in help n questions maybe we can figure it out

pearl robin

damn i just found out a substitute for every N seconds node, i had a generic zone capture complete node to start a script, but problem arised with bots being in the zone contesting it, not allowing the rest of the script to fire, you can then make another script to not allow them to capture it, but instead i just used "on generic zone online" -> deactivate generic zone then it ran rest of script and re activated the zone at end of script after a wait in seconds, incoming timer in the object settings can be like a delay. appearently there is a bug where ppl cant join if you have too many every N seconds nodes

I am sure there are Intoduction to Halo Infinite Forge youtube tutorials

why do elites that get into banshees fly upwards to china only

worldly ore
#

You have to set them to follow an aerial enemy like a phantom, banshee, or wasp

zinc gull
#

yea what ivy said its same reason sentinel drone AI are not a thing, no air nav mesh. no possibility of coming to Infinite either so maybe next game

pearl robin
#

i hve get all AI to follow eagle team and AI are all set to cobra and i got them to not fly upwards "as often"

#

also when i messed up i noticed they would fly out of the map, but attempt to fly back to the original zone they came from which was in the box, so i bet if you loop the zones you can get them to fly in a general area

#

i used brute commandos, they seemed to be smarter than elites drive wise

zinc gull

Perhaps you can use Modify AI Targetable nodes to tell the AI that will jump/Attempt to enter vehicle node the Banshee to target some object in the central area near where players will be

That you can do

#

For some reason they will only fire on enemy banshees, wasps, and phantoms

ive been experimenting and the banshees r so dang awful, in a bunch of open air tests with a translating phantom gunship and 2 banshees, all diff teams with magic sight - banshees r so stubborn in their ignorance and fly away, even if i area monitor catch them back into center.

when i added an enclosed room and they do fly much better, but only 1 of them shot like 4 times at a grunt on the ground that a phantom dropped, didnt even kill it. at least the phantom gun shoots at stuff but it always does.

Can I remake an entire other game's map in Halo Infinite forge? Can Infinite even handle that?

#

I wanna try to make at least one of the regions from Metroid Prime in Infinite

you can always try, forging high detail stuff like that takes plenty of time and effort. Plus learning the tool and what's available for u to use.

Oh okay

pure tinsel
#

is there any scripters here?

#

if somebody is up for the challenge, im looking to move an object on a reptitive path

#

It's for an infection map I'm working on. I have a neat idea

worldly ore
#

Just use the translate to point node

#

Very easy to use

zinc gull
pure tinsel
#

@zinc gull Are you able to translate the object to more than just one destination. For instance; Could I make a "spline" in a sense, a small track that the object moves on?

#

quite literally, I want to take the civilian van object, and have it move around a circular street.

zinc gull
pure tinsel
#

sounds reasonible. It will only have to turn 4 times, so I imagine I can have it stop, rotate 90 degrees, then forward again.

zinc gull
#

yea u can add in rotate object to point node, once it reaches a destination obj

pure tinsel
#

As far as I know, this will be the only script in the entire map, so It can be pretty heavy. I imagine the more pointer objects, the less janky it will look.

#

So long as I have it loop.

#

But, if you hop into forge with me and do it, I'll be your best friend!

zinc gull
#

sry i cant im focusing on 1 map nowdays

pure tinsel
#

that hurts my feelings.

flint flicker
#

If you are good at math, you can use loop of Translate to Points, where each point is calculated using Math instead of a bajillion Pointer objects.
You can make a circlular arc with Sin and Cos, for example.

zinc gull

That sounds cool i should learn math

Anyone actually still use forge in Halo infinite here?

yes lol, every day

It’s been a very long time since I played infinite or any game at that but I’m thinking I might get on and check out forge soon because I had a cool idea to make a map where everything is scaled to humans so you would have to crouch to get through doors and there would be many breakable objects walls etc.. 😂

tribal sonnet
# tawdry mango yes lol, every day

Do you know if they're still updating it? Could do with a jungle biome and maybe a insurrectionist pallete, not to mention the standard Unggoy mule (Not Briglard the boss) is missing from the AI spawn list 😦

tawdry mango
#

the alien palette should cover jungle pretty well, you can also color the other biome foliage now. not sure what insurrectionist would entail, but check out the new brutalist palette

is anyone else running into the game crashing when playing the survive the undead event mode ? i think its caused by runtime budget maxing out and buttons being pressed. i had this issue in one of my other maps when paired with music and something moving.

There are some Forgers over on /r /forge, but there are other discords that are much more active in answering forge questions

the youtuber Zechariot has a lot of beginner friendly tutorials for stuff like opening doors

#

but he has taken a hiatus from making new ones. AFAIK most of his stuff should still be valid

pure tinsel

Yeah I'm in the forge discord too, but tbh forging is just so obscure, it's tough to find somebody knowledgeable and willing to help if they aren't already working on something haha. I'll look up this Zechariot as well!

Here's a prefab for that spline script if anybody is interested. Pretty impressive stuff!

Yea I go thru obsessive phases with forge i wish wish cgb was more populous! Maybe 3rd person will spike it some in November

#

My philosophy with making things in forge (that I learned from the H3 days) was that I make things because I enjoy making them, not because someone will enjoy it and give me recognition for my work

#

If you are makingn stuff with the goal of getting it into MM, or as a featured game type, and you aren't willing to put a huge number of hours into it, you're doing it wrong IMO

pure tinsel
#

Yes! exactly. I'll spend hours just walking around my archetecture and landscaping in awe. It just looks so pretty 🙂 But I also always have an objective to get into MM.

Which kinda confuses me, cause I see AWESOME maps in the community showcase, but they never seem to put them in any playlist...

Dang, I see. Hmm do you think if I bring in the prefab I used and properly delete it, then it might fix it. Or you think I might need to just delete all my nodes?

If u have other prefab brains take a look at them for trait scripting. U shouldn't need to delete ur own nodes if they aren't trait movement speed ones

#

If u have the brain bug I'm not sure what to do

I appreciate the help though. I didn't know prefab nodes were known to bug

Great map ideas for you forgers, make a Halo: Monalisa map where it’s a dope story maybe consisting of 4-5 maps and the last one being a raid map??

zinc gull
#

I really like the Mona Lisa story but with no Flood AI in the game, it won't feel as good. I think that'll definitely be a great topic for next Halo forge

#

Like someone is making a really cool looking Library campaign map. I feel bad tho I wish there was Flood AI to really match their inspiration and ideas. But it's still good mapmaking experience they can bring into the next game

flint flicker
#

I mean, I'm working on "Flood at home" but yeah, not the same lol

pearl robin
pure tinsel
#

I worked on a flood inspired BTB map for about a year. It's gorgeous and plays cool, but unfortunately people just don't stay in the game long during customs. If you make a map where nerds can't hide in the corner for 4 minutes doing nothing, they just leave. The new wave of infection players are boring and all they do is hide in a corner. I don't see why people even play.

#

*leaves when infected lol

pure tinsel
#

Or some sort of "end of map" script that loads the next map if you reach it. If this were possible, you could basically make Metroid inspired map gameplay, and seperate biomes, levels, missions, etc. I would love it.

peter's asking if you've used 3d modelling software like blender/3ds max/maya or used game design software like unreal/unity/godot etc. you dont have to have worked in game design to have used those kinds of tools

if you have used them before it can help with getting started in forge.

having that kind of experience isnt essential, but it does help

there's a slight carry over to just understanding how to move the camera around in 3d and interact with stuff, but yeah, pretty different altogether.

Hi guys,
wondering if there is a way to increase the 'speed' of the melee attacks (includes attack speed on melee weapons like energy sword).
I found there is a trait called melee recovery speed but increasing that from 1 to any other much higher value (eg. 10 or 50) doesn't seem to be making any difference.

zinc gull
#

hm see how high u can set the value. i remember movement speed could be set to 5000 what if u tried that

#

theres prob some real hidden max value thats not exactly the number but idk what it is

exotic knoll
#

I tried 5000 as well.
But thanks anyway 😊

zinc gull
#

how do ur scripts look? it def speeds up melee speed, just tested in forge

exotic knoll
#

I think it caps it at some value tho. Just tested , its def greater than default when you set it to say 2 or 3 but I want much faster.

flint flicker
#

melee recovery speed does indeed work

zinc gull
#

Yea way more than no difference

zinc gull
#

I wish the hydra reload time could be sped up as effectively, but it seems only 1 part of the hydra reload animation can be sped up, it's weird. I'm gonna try again

exotic knoll
#

I wish they had a few nodes to just speed up any animation. That would solve a lot of these problems.

exotic knoll
#

anyone know how to store more than two weapons in the inventory ? Right now it's just a primary and a secondary.
I couldn't find a way to trigger a custom event using a keyboard key press either so that could've been one way to achieve this.

flint flicker
#

you can give players weapons

#

you could trigger the event by On Player Mark; On Player Crouch; or On Weapon Dropped

#

you can use variables to track what weapons a player have, how much ammo they had, and use On Weapon Dropped to swap out weapon from the variables, and storing the dropped weapon

exotic knoll
#

sounds good, thanks I'll try that

flint flicker
#

it is not a beginner level script, like opening a door, though

exotic knoll
#

I understand that, will use some of my programming xp to acheive it 😅

#

basically I'm trying to simulate a 'weapon wheel' type scenario where you can use more than just 2 weapons and don't actually have a nice weapon wheel displayed on the UI

flint flicker
#

Sounds fun. Throwing a weapon, having it get deleted, and then storing a variable in a list that represents it sounds like the ideal way.
You would then remove the weapon from the beginning of the list and give it back to the player.

So you could just throw your weapons endlessly and it would rotate through your list of armnaments

exotic knoll
#

yep
The only downside is , constantly having to press the 'weapon drop' key to cycle thru a bunch of weapons to get to the particular one you need in a given combat situation.
Ideally it should be like (just an eg.)
Press Q -> switches to weapon1
E -> switches to weapon2
V -> switches to weapon3

etc.

#

or something even simple like 1,2,3 ,4 keys

pearl robin
#

anyone played a moba map in forge??? damn my high is giving me thoughts of doing a Moba type game mode with AI

flint flicker
#

but that interferes with normal equipment usage

exotic knoll
#

ikr , maybe in some future update they'll have more triggers.
But idk lol they're now moving to UE5 so not even sure if forge will be around

flint flicker
#

they won't abandon forge.
We won't be getting any custom player inputs, I guarantee that.
A fun one might be to
on equipment used -> check if custom equipment A -> store both primary and secondary weapons into the pocket dimension -> and replace player weapons with default spawn weapons (if it is thet first time being used) or swap out the pocket dimension weapons

#

so you can't rotate though a huge list of stored weapons, but you could have a quick swap between two weapon sets

exotic knoll
#

thanks, what's the node that allows to store primary and secondary in the 'pocket dimension' ?

flint flicker
#

Variables Advanced: Declare weapon type variable : id=primary_weapon, scope = object
Set Weapon Type Variable: id = primary_weapon, scope = object
Get Weapon Type Variable: id = primary_weapon, scope = object

#

to use the get and set, you need to get a reference to the player object and connect that to the Object pin on the Get / Set

#

the Value input pin is the weapon Type that you want to store

#

Scope = object means "This variable, as identified by This ID, is store ON this object (in our case, the player object)"

#

the Identifier can be any text, choose stuff that makes sense and make sure they are EXACTLY the same on the Declare / get / set

#

You can do the same for a secondary weapon.

#

you would ideally also check the ammo and save that to a Number Variable, but that's going to be finnicky

exotic knoll
#

thanks a lot
it's time for me to....implement!

flint flicker
#

good luck

#

you'll be using Give Player New Weapon, which makes the player drop the old weapon. Easiest way to clean that up is to get a reference to the existing weapon first, then after it is dropped, delete it (and in this case get its weapon type to store in the variables)

you can script Phantoms by placing an Area Monitor where it spawns, and :

I recommend diving straight in for a few hours, and just get familiar with the controls, menu, and interface. Experiment, play around try making a 4 walled room from primitive blocks. If you can build a 4 walled room with primitive blocks, you'll have a very base knowledge of how to manipulate and move objects you've selected in the menu.

They should add a vehicle spawner that drops a vehicle off by pelican, like in btb

hard lantern
#

love this game

pearl robin
#

just use a event, then spawn pelican, translate object to point x2 (to destination in the sky then downwards) then spawn vehicle, then translate object to point (fly off or fly upwards and then fly off) then delete object once it gets to its last point. on round start reset object node with all its options to true

#

inbetween all that u can also spawn in FX like dust cloud and audio

#

im currently making a trench zombies map and will have pelican drop vehicles for zombies haha

synchronizing a warthog flying with the pelican is a bit more effort (along with more complicated movements than just straight lines), but you CAN do it

The category is called "Player Traits." The script itself, I can't remember, but the name is pretty self-exploratory, so it should hopefully be easy to find.

what ive been wondering is if that reach firefight artillary strike was programmed or you can actually script that, would like to use it on my missle launcher

zinc gull
#

nowdays usually generic balls are used as the tool to pickup and throw it as the cast

flint flicker
#

There are airstrike prefabs you can use, with different triggers and different projectile types

#

the oldest use Marking and Fusion Coils

#

Making your own could work like this:
Spawn a marine and put him in a rocket hog (or give him a rocket launcher)
Make a dynamic object (could just be a cube) targetable and on a different team.
Catch the projectile in an Area monitor (On Object Entered Area -> get object velocity -> compare to what that projectile should have)
Store that projectile in an object variable and also keep it alive, probably.

To trigger, clone the object variable, set the position to be whatever location + some Z value, add some random X and Y,
Set the velocity to 0 in x and y, and negative something in Z
Do that in a loop for how many projectiles you want, with a sleep between each cycle

For added benefit, create a nav marker or boundary on the location the strike is coming down, play some voice lines for the relevant players, add an FX to look like a smoke signal,
Then clean that all up when you're done

#

you can skip the marine part if you're using a fusion coil.

#

(don't forget to uh... clean up the marine afterwards) You can use a hunter instead to steal their projectile. Don't forget to set the rotation of the projectile straight down

#

Be sure to set a boolean preventing it from triggering twice, or build a system to handle simultaneous strikes by having multiple of each object define, or clone and clean them up afterwards

#

To make all of that work like a Missile launcher, we can change up where the cloned rockets spawn, what direction they spawn facing, and that's fine

#

What will make that more complicated is if you want them to arc, fly straight, or home in on targets

Thank you

#

That will make it easier for me to add third person to forge

#

Although you won't be able to toggle between third or first person perspectives

pearl robin

could possibly also do it in a branch way with on player crouch and have the node get is crouching connected to true to apply the trait and under false pin do remove trait

olive rain
#

I will give it a shot

#

Later today

#

see what happens

#

By the way, thanks for helping me in finding the third person commands

zinc gull
#

u can also just enable 3rd person in the mode settings if ur playing custom games. but in forge then yea script it in however u want

pearl robin
#

so i tested it and you can toggle 3rd person and 1st person view with only 4 nodes

#

on player crouch - branch if true - apply trait set - if false remove trait set

#

i think it would be possible to do it with on player mark but you would need to have a toggle boolean varible nodes and i dont know how to do that one

pearl robin
#

on player mark - apply trait set - branch / condition (get is crouching) if true - Remove trait set this one works too as a toggle, you must crouch and mark to go back intofirst person view if you mark while standing up youll go back into 3rd person view. i think this will eventually become a bread and butter script for maps now, but like i said i think there is a way to toggle it on and off without having to crouch but i never mess with boolean variables much.

zinc gull
#

yep i went with mark 10 or 15 units near self to toggle on off

new annoying scripting bug, just decides to make your script not work even though you did nothing wrong, remake the script without duplicating anything and it works, but now this time another thing messes up even with ai turned on to trigger only by script it still triggers them.

#

i made a new script brain too and when i would press Q for node graph it kept bringing me to the first brain instead of the second one i made

flint flicker
#

Are you copy-pasting brains?

pearl robin
#

even when you duplicate somthing it thinks its the other object still, its affecting AI too

#

i duplicated a AI spawn zone and they wouldnt move or ignore script and still be triggered, not sure if the cause of this to start happening was when i generated nav mesh and moved a truck that had nav mesh jump hints on it

#

or it could be this other bug i am encountering where you place something, test in forge, and it isnt placed at the area you placed it, it moves itself back to where you spawned it in

flint flicker
#

yeah there's issues with duplicating AI spawners for sure

rose adder

So this is a gripe I’m having, I like to start on 0,0 coordinates when I start maps, always have, but it seems like I can get my starting point there, then as I’m scaling a block, it’s no longer sharing the X or the Y as the center.

been using the infection mode for infection but always run into scripting issues. anyone have issues with nav markers on infection mode? works perfectly in forge, but the nav markers i did specifically for cobra team arent showing up and the ones i marked for eagle team are emitting audio for cobra

#

not sure the proper mode to script infection on if i have too

flint flicker
#

Infection is technically FFA but uses team affiliation, that's why

#

you have a couple options, you can either ditch the scripting that comes with Infection and recreate it yourself, and then use Minigame as the basis for your gametype

#

or you can rework your scripting for nav points to track that "Cobra" team differently, by calling Get Player FFA Allegiance which will return Cobra for Infected players @pearl robin

#

If you going to remake your own infection scripting:

On player killed -> set player team cobra
handles most of the infection logic. You can do more fancy stuff to get the voice lines to go and set the armor FX to be infected if you care to

#

just confirmed myself that there is a duplication bug that i mentioned last time

#

in my map i wanted to try somthing with a hacking terminal but didnt wanna delete and remake all the spawns just ot try it out ( i couldnt do it where the spawns where cause the AI would kill me when trying it) so i selected all spawns and then changed them to neutral did my test and swapped them back to original teams, tested map out and for some reason all the bots would instantly die even though i have no scripting tied to the bots dying for any reason at all

#

i redid the spawns from scratch without duplicating anything and theyre working again.

#

encountered another one that i think is the same bug where i duplicated a prefab, i have a mine inside a universal blocker, and for some reason that deplicated mine + the original prefab both started to explode from grenades even though it had the blocker on it, i had to re adjust the position of the mines and re do the blockers for it to work again

flint flicker
#

bots or AI units?

pearl robin
#

bots, actually i just tested map again and eagle team works but not cobra not sure if i have those spawns outside of the nav mesh i dont think i do maybe has something to do with the spawn settings or somthing not sure ill look at it later again

flint flicker
#

I had a LOT of trouble with bots and spawns

#

They completely disregarded my team specifications in my minigame

#

as in, Cobra bots would spawn on Eagle spawners for no reason lol

#

I eventually just teleported them where they need to go

#

there is not a headshot only option right? i have this flash light script, just thought if i lowered the vector below the head and put a projectile blocker on everyones body except for head it would work as headshot only lol

flint flicker
#

Is there a reason you are changing the team of the bots?

#

Valhalla mode is pretty close to an easy headshot only mode. It makes everyone invincible UNLESS they take enough damage to 1-shot-kill them (this includes back-smacks, headshots, and other high damage things like tank rounds IIRC)

#

You can also make it so players are effectively immune to anything but headshots by making everyone have a lot of damage resistance and do very little damage, but shields will complicate and they'll still be able to die eventually

you cant have every N seconds on custom event right, i have this every N seconds script, every 3 seconds it checks if pointer is spawned or not, if its is, it will play an alarm sound, not sure if this will mess up game as i will have over 6-7 of these events

# jagged silo Should be fine. But why not check it all on 1 every N seconds?

yeah i have a branch for it, Every N Seconds - Branch (condition) get is dead (pointer) - If False Play 3D Audio For all Players. i have two on map so far, doesnt seem to affect much, im just not sure if its actually running in the background or just firing when the conditions are met for the branch, if it isnt running until the branch is correct, then thats good, its just audio running anyways.

I wonder, has anyone tried making a wwz(game & movie)style, wave event?(Like ai pouring from the top of walls or in general to climb to you) I know we only have 32 ai limit(well, and the bots, and possibly grunts if that still works)but they could be made to respawn really fast without one dying either, and 32 is still a lot, one or a few disappearing, wouldn't be fully obvious, especially if they're really fast

zinc gull
#

yea u can do that, i like doing it to increase tempo of map section, keeps AI count up instead of slowly decreasing. can then give units speed boost trait

#

keeps play more intense and is good for keeping enemy "help" units around a boss

#

fun to do with weaker units like grunts and skimmers bc they constantly fill in the section as they are killed. u can keep them endless waving until a boss is killed or an objective completed

#

sometimes add brute hammers lol for scary

#

if u want u can make it a timed event as well. like "survive 2 minutes" or something

#

I’ve had an idea in the back of my mind for a while of a grunt survival mode but Trigger Grunt Hug is constantly run for all grunts

Maybe throw in grenade resistance for all the grunts for extra measure

Anyone got any solutions for spawning ai. The way I used to do it was on object entered are trigger ai spawner (ai would spawn) wait for N seconds delete the ai spawner.

#

To be honest I want to make a unique map, it might not make sense lore wise but

#

I want to make a map where the Banished are invading a city, they plan to test a superweapon there, some device. The device is being carried by a brute chieftain.

In the sky large banished ships and a unsc ships trading blows (the effect going back and forth like some maps do. Prob only 3-4 ships to not take up so much space on map system)

I want the player to fight through this city filled with banished, not a firefight but feeling like they are going after the target. I can easily stretch it if the simulation allows me, starting from a building, working your way to lobby, outside through the streets then finally....

unlike other maps, I want the players to fail there objective, for the brute chieftain to get away and worse, for the superweapon to go off.

Then part 2, or 3 if above had to be split into two parts

The city is devastated, the players fight to survive and escape the destroyed city

#

but the idea of building all that, im new, it will take awhile and that sucks :/

Anyone want to help? 😏

It's hard doing those scripted lose if objective failed or timer expired maps bc there are limited methods to convey a story in forge maps. Like if u do that chieftan u need to attach nav marker on him and maybe a ui message telling players to eliminate and maybe some other hint in Objective Banner that says how much time left they have to kill him. Bc in many cases players just won't understand why they lost without good storytelling hints, it may feel like an unfair defeat, and then just load a different map after loss

One of my maps used to have a time limit to reach the pelican and escape, but I later realized the scripted loss and set in cement time limit just decreases the possible fun of the map. Players struggling to reach the pelican, maybe taking more time to do so than other lobbies, or maybe fighting endless waves is way more fun than a time limit and losing the match after just playing 15min or 30min thru it imo

A good way to add timing into map is assigning several move zones to that brute boss. So as time goes on. He moves around into different map areas that also introduce new gameplay dynamics and spice change up combat and maybe makes it harder as time goes on either by layout or ai/player trait editing

Does anyone want to help me make a PVE Space Battle campaign map? I'm new to forge but understand forge a bit so not completely clueless but still inexperienced.

  • The idea & how map works

A giant UNSC Vindication Class ship is under attack from a Banished Cruiser and a Banished Dreadnought.

The players spawns in a hanger and uses a wasp aircraft to shoot marked targets. (A script where u have to shoot a block, the marks will be over these blocks which will be at places like the Banished ships engines, shield relay, etc)

The player will have automated turrets and confused banshees in there way as well which will make it feel like a space battle where you are shooting the Banished ships weakpoints.

(Banshee don't have good ai that you can direct but if I make them spawn in a way where they fly in the direction of the UNSC Vindication ship, even if a banshee ignores players, it will still look immersive as it looks like they are heading for the UNSC ship)

Both Banished ships have interiors, after destroying marked objects, players will board the small Dreadnought and scuttle it from the inside.

Then they have to do the same for the big cruiser, which we will have to hollow to make a interior.

Issue is, there still wouldn't be enough space and I dont want the boarding to be short nor split the mission into 2.

So instead I will hollow the ridiculously big UNSC Vindication ship that is next to the map wall to extend playtime inside the cruiser, when we run out of space we simply teleport the players via a door they need to use to continue the boarding! And since the Vindication is so big, players won't notice nor see random interiors while flying early on bc it will be hidden on the other side of the Vindication ship + barriers to prevent u flying to the othet side. Banished ships are in other direction anyways.

My idea should allow for a copl space fighting and ship boarding destroying experience I think

#

Its 1:18am as I write this so it's sleep time but I hope someone finds interest in helping me make my map idea.

#

I already have the map outlined in forge partly

Oh so thats why someone said prefabs are buggy

#

I love seeing everything completely flipped and some of my time ruined bc everything roated for no reasonm:D

#

Is therre a way to prevent that in the future?

#

Strange the hanger is refusing to noclip into place, it popped the ship into a different position :/ hmm

#

This went from fun to "oh dear god how do I fix this" ugh

#

tbh it isnt that bad

#

only q thing is a issue, the other thing mangled actually nicely since it was meant to be wreckage anyways

#

O perhaps saving it into a prefab will prevent it from breaking since it becomes one object again!?

#

oo is it bc the objects are phased? wait no

#

hmm, this ship which could noclip into place

#

now is annoyed by boundaries resulting me in not being able to set it into place like planned, gonna take a bit to fix

fading geyser
#

**How do i fix a object not wanting to noclip? Im annoyed it isnt poppin into place and I dont see anything that would be in its way

zinc gull
#

if its a prefab there are a couple possibilities.

  1. a dynamic object is nearby or in way, stuff like vehicles, lights, weapons, etc can look very far away but sometimes, esp prefabs, they hit them even when they are pretty far away physically.
  2. try ungrouping the prefab, moving it, then once in position, then before unselecting, group into prefab again

flint flicker

I wonder if we can get banshee's to target an invisible object like a Blocker, and every frame update the blocker's position to be "In front of the banshee" to keep it in focus. Then if we could nudge the blockers slightly left or right, and get the banshee to follow it that way

I'm new to forge and want to make a unique not seen before like map but dont have the experience to finish it myself in the best way, I might do something that could have been done better but I don't know it.

  • The idea & how map works (NOTE: This is just the idea, I am willing to change things if it works better of course)

A giant UNSC Vindication Class ship is under attack from a Banished Cruiser and a Banished Dreadnought.

The players spawns in a hanger, takes care of the Phantom attacking the Hanger outside. Heads to the Banished Hammer ship and destroy the marked components. (A script where u have to shoot a block, the marks is over these blocks which will be at places like the Banished ships engines, shield relay, etc)

I have that done, what I need is someone to help me do the rest! I can do all the scripts myself if you want, I just need help building but any kind of help would be helpful.

Enter the Banished Hammer, the back of the ship doors is blocked by shields. Head to the front of the ship, hack the console to open the back

Go into the back and destroy the core or something similar.

Then they have to do the same for the big cruiser. Add objectives and things to shoot off the carrier, then we will have to hollow to make a interior.

Issue is, there still wouldn't be enough space and I dont want the carrier boarding to be short nor split the mission into 2.

So instead I will hollow the ridiculously big UNSC Vindication ship that is next to the map wall to extend playtime inside the cruiser, when we run out of space we simply teleport the plyers via a door they need to use to continue! And since the Vindication is so big, players won't notice nor see random interiors while flying early on bc it will be hidden on the other side of the ship + barriers to prevent u flying to the other side. Banished ships are in other direction anyways.

Hello everyone, I'm looking for an old custom game I used to play on Reach. I had a lot of fun back in the day with this game and I hope to find it again or create it again. I just wish I had pictures of what it used to look like, and the original creators name so I can give them credit if I do build this.

I believe this game to be called something along the lines of "Race of the warthogs". I tried to the best of my abilities to find mentions of this online, I failed. I turned to AI and this is the name that best fit.

The game starts with players entering warthogs (also mongooses), The players would begin by racing down a steep incline, while they are racing the players would need to dodge obstacles like balls, etc. At the end of the incline they would be teleported to the top and repeat, and they would develop so much speed that one at a time the players would die, last player alive wins.

My questions:

  1. Does something like this already Exist on Halo Infinite?
  2. Does this custom game go by another name?
  3. Do you remember this custom game, and is this something you'd like to see returned (if it doesn't already exist)?

How do I make good map geometry in forge

zinc gull

I've had trouble with that in my first couple maps too, they are too flat generally. Only a couple in did I try varying map geo better!! Use lots of Ramp Biomes and rocks so it's not too flat. Inka Shrub bushes can cover weird parts or be near other trees plants, inka will look good they always do.

hushed prism
# worldly ore I'm following the usual linear mission formula but I wanna do it like Halo 3 whe...

I would go back through h3 and get some references if you want to make something similar to it. Learn from the play spaces you are trying to replicate. Typically variations in geo every 3 sec of walking helps(except for open line of sights that you can see across the map). 8.5 units is how tall a spartan is,so that would be considered full cover. 4.25 units would be half cover. So make some ramps,cover and some walls around full cover height and some half. Those should give you a couple ideas for varying geo.

Ok

#

Which one

#

Also wow low-key I was not expecting bots to be that good at driving warthogs

#

They really aren't but testing them out in big battle was low-key fun

spare dune
#

ah

#

here it is

#

the place where i may spend the most time in ^^ Though i'll be honest....

#

i'm lost

#

For me, and this isn't really a complaint but Forge Peaked in Reach. The size of that map was perfection tbh

#

I'm still willing to try but it feels so daunting

spare dune
#

Why is this mode so frustratingly hard

#

All I wanna do is just move a building to the bloody right

#

And it doesn't even

#

WHY IS THIS SO COMPLICATED

#

WHY CANT IT BE SIMPLE

#

IM SO....FRUSTRATED AND ANGRY

#

Is there anyone here who can help me?

Honestly this is your fault

#

It’s not hard to make a room like you would in Reach Forge lmao

spare dune
#

for me at least

worldly ore
#

Yeah for you at least

#

The control scheme is literally there

#

It literally tells you what buttons to press lmao

#

take it slow and build small first. I started with a simple octagon map and even that was daunting at first.

#

the point of building small things first is getting in the habit of the controls, building up reps in using the tool, and in the habit of completing something.

how do i edit a custom powerup in forge

#

Hello looking for help for a custom firefight

#

The scripting of it but there's some stuff I dont understand

#

Also posted a thread in the help and questions tab

#

@wheat raptor I think you would make a brain then make it with player trait nodes

#

Then maybe reference the equipment plate

Are there any forge testing groups running 4v4s? Or gamers in general who wanna test out their forge maps?

flint flicker
#

yes

@dry hornet nice work

I’ll expound more on that later

#

Here wondering what could be the next big feature for forge, Maybe custom assets?

#

Texture scaling for customizable props?

#

Being able to craft huge experiences through different forge worlds/sessions all linked through scripting?

#

That would help creating different levels with not so much worry about forge budget

zinc gull
#

what like in future games?

flint flicker
#

being able to chain into another map+ mode and carry some session information from the previous one would be super neat

#

keeping the player teams, their score, and all of their weapons / loadouts into the next map would be real cool

So. AI Traits bug?
Where killing ~200 units with traits applied permanently breaks applying traits for the rest of the game?
Gone but not forgotten?
Kinda!
Still exists in some circumstances.
In general, if you are going to kill an AI with something other than Damage, remove their traits first.
This includes AI that are leftover at the end of the round, or with Kill All Squads.

**Breaking behavior: **

  • Teleporting a unit with traits applied out of bounds
  • Killing All Squads with traits applied
  • Ending round with AI with traits applied

**Non-breaking behavior: **

  • removing a unit's traits and then teleporting them out of bounds
  • Killing a unit with traits applied with weapons
  • Killing a unit with traits applied with Damage Object
  • Removing all ai traits and then ending round
  • On Round end -> for each AI -> remove all traits

Hello, is there a channel for feedback for Halo Studios to view?

I want to request a small feature added to the "Teleport Player" node. Please allow the node to set the player's rotation, same way a Teleporter object would.

Thanks 🙂

is it possible to change the location of the duplication? when i duplicate an object, i'd like it to always duplicate in the same location as the instance i just duplicated from

ctrl+d and dragging the mouse - is that why sometimes objects will duplicate next to the original object?

Question, If I make a Zeon Gouf Custom form Mobile Suit Gundam as a prefab, would there be any trouble later on, like legal issues, so on

In infinite how do you tell who made a map if it’s not listed? Trying to find out who made “Habitat 17”

If so, it might be unpublished and just the hosts map from their files

Hello does anyone know what happens to maps that get picked by HS and put into multiplayer rotation?
Do the original creators get to edit it or does it have to go through Halo Studios for every revision?

I found an issue with the Firefight map Alpha Site and I have a fix for it but idk who to contact.
