This is a map I spent some time on call Temple. Has a structure in the middle, with a section underneath that you can walk under as well as fight. Has vehicles, and also you can walk around on one level of the temple.

I would also love to play in any custom games of anyone who downloads this map and likes it. I do not have many Halo 3 friends to custom games it up, I just make maps in my free time.

QuadLaserSniper. See the full details at the Download Page.

Mongooses, Spartan Lasers, and Sniper Rifles. Teams of 2, VIP drives and the other player shoots from the back of the mongoose. This is NOT escort, earn points by getting kills.

4 rounds of 3 minutes each. Players switch roles between Driver and Shooter each round.

The game type actually makes it difficult to cheat (shoot while on foot) by using Influential VIP. You do 0% damage unless you are really close to your driver (i.e. on the back of his mongoose)

I've set up just about every map that is fun to drive a mongoose on with spawns and teleporters that make it REALLY easy to access a mongoose. These maps are included in this game variant's file set and can also be accessed from Predator XVIII's file share.

Feel free to send me (Predator XVIII) a message or a friend request if you want to play or try it out with some people that already enjoy playing it.

If I want to play Halo 3, I play Halo 3. As you can see, I play Reach.

I loved Halo 3, then I played Reach and never looked back. I really liked Reach, and then I tried Black Ops and realized just how awesome Reach really is!

A couple of mine on file share:



The Ruze: An abandoned warehouse turned into a training facility, this is a close quarters marathon great for helping with radar tracking and corner fighting.

This was my first map, and it's pretty straightforward: it's a maze. Built for anything from four to 12 players (comfortably), it works best on slayer, juggernaut, koth and oddball matches, but it is not designed for any CTF type games. Be aware, with super speed and jump, you might be able to reach parts of the map which are not designed to be reached.



I'm the Ziggurat: Ah, the joys of ancient, crumbling structures. A pyramid-type map, it's pretty well balanced in layout and is fairly symetrical. Weapon spawns are plenty, and the confins can be tight, so keep your guard up.

This map is pretty fast and quick in combat, and does well to support multiple teams, though it can feel a bit hectic and overcrowded with more than 8 players. It comes in three main zones: a lower level with lots of tight confines and attack patterns; an upper level which is more open and includes a nice sword spawn at it's peak; and a no-mans land outer ring, which includes two nearly hidden sniper spawns which can be used for great effect.



Beau: Vehicles, vehicles, vehicles. The towering confines, winding paths and many vehicle spawns makes this map a great time for large team conflicts. Comfortably supports over 16 players!

Don't underestimate the ground game, though. Between a large variety of rockets, random teleporters for instant access to higher vantages, convenient turret locations and a centralized pod launcher, players on foot can still cause a lot of destruction. But nothing is better than you and a friend sporting warthog colors and outmaneuvering the deadly birds in the sky!

Basin X


Basin X is an Asymmetrical map located on the ground floor of Sandbox. It is multi-leveled, and very vertical. The map features nearly 5 stories of a creative mix between close-quarters combat, mid-range, and mid-long range. The map is designed well for 2v2,3v3, and up to a max of 6-7 players for FFA gametypes.

Attackers spawn on the ground floor. They spawn right next to a Two-Way Teleporter Node which takes you to the uppermost floor and gives them first access to a Power Drain. They have access to a Gravity Hammer behind the pillars in front of them and can immediately start infiltrating the complex structure that is the Defender's base. Defenders spawn inside the main structure and have immediate access to a Man Cannon which takes you to the uppermost floor. They also have access to an Active Camo and Regen. Both teams have equal access to a Neutral Sniper, located on the Golden catwalks, which would be defined as the "Fourth Floor".

The map features cramped hallways, vertical perches and catwalks, and extremely fast transportation between multiple levels. The uppermost floor only has two ways up, and it is the only way to make it to the fourth floor. From the fifth floor, players can get down by dropping from one of two gaps in the floor. There is one large gap in the middle which allows players to drop onto the fourth, third, or first floors. There is also another gap players can drop down which takes them into a hidden hallway which you could consider as being the second floor. As you can read, it is a fairly complex map. Let's show you some screenshots of what the map looks like so you can get a better understanding.

Screenshots

-Bottom Floor looking up at the golden catwalks, aka fourth floor
-First Floor
-Defender's Spawn
-Active Camo Spawn
-Gravity Hammer Spawn
-Hallway around Regen Room
-Top floor (NOTE: The top floor is slightly different in the actual map. That middle pillar is now gone, the BR moved against a wall, and the middle gap is opened up more)
-Gold Catwalks (NOTE: Power Drain is located on the Top floor now on the actual map. Sniper is located off-screen at the bottom of the screenshot)

The pictures don't really do you justice, as a vast majority of the map is enclosed and it is hard to get good enough screenshots for yout o capture the whole map.

Gametypes that work best

Good ol' Slayer works best on this map. Oddball is also a gametype recommended, but more for FFA gametypes. FFA Slayer, FFA Swords, Juggernaut all would work well. Team Snipers would also probably work well. 1 Flag CTF is recommended if you choose to play CTF. Not sure how 2 Flag CTF would work.

NOTE about Flag:
The CTF spawns are very different than any map you may be used to, and this makes it especially tricky for both teams. The Defender's Flag spawns in the Regen Room. the Attackers must grab the Flag, make it to the top floor, fall down onto the fourth floor and take the flag to the capture point on the fourth floor. It is done this way because it is the longest route players can take, and makes gameplay longer and more crazed. It is a much better setup than having it placed at Defender's spawn and having to bring it to in front of the teleporter node. That'd make games end way too fast.

ELITES ARE BACK BABY!!!
"WORT WORT WORT!"

My First ever forge&gametype lol

Explosive;A deadly Foundry!

Used withExtreme Hammers

I basically used an empty foundry and place floating explosive traps all over the map.Once you are in the area were the explosions are there is no going back.

Game Rules:
No Grenades and all you have is your trusty Gravity Hammer :).

2x over-shield to help compensate for the extra damage you will be taking from explosions.

%150 Gravity.
%200 Speed (so a sure death from explosions wont be %100)

2 Minutes Per Round (5 Rounds)
1 kill = 1 point
1 death = -1 point (toggle suicide if you like,currently -0)
Goal = 3 points

Best with 6-8 Players

It's a fun little game to play and once you get a kill you'll be scrambling around to avoid explosions until your shields recharge,guaranteeing the loser in the fight won't get points from a falling explosion.Random soccer balls are just there to push in the field if you would like to.

Have fun ;)

Bursting Point

Bursting Point v2

I made this map a while back in March. It is a small, crowded foundry variant that consists of two bases, red and blue, that quite different from normal Mlg maps. In the center stands a weird bridge and double box structure that i thought looked bad, but im not sure. Let me know what you think. This map can be played with oddball and slayer, making a fun, condensed 4v4, 3v3, or even 2v2 battlefield. This was practically my first slayer map ever, so dont be so hard. It has some minor flaws, but let me assure you, my next slayer map, which is almost complete is MUCH BETTER.

Tell 'em to make it count.

Infraction
Mendecent Bias's secret base of operations, you must destroy this malfunctioning facility at once.

Infraction could easily be described as a sniper's paradise. This map allows access to some normally unaccessible prime sniping positions. It's also a map that rewards the quick-acting and the cunning in matters of power weapon retrieval.
This map is specifically designed to encourage players to use their ingenuity to make the most of unique regions of Narrows, and is also designed to challenge players that rely on traditional methods of play on Narrows, such as the use of the man cannons on the map, which are disabled in this variant (not via modding; it's all legitimately designed in the Forge). Due to the special effects on Infraction, there will be a brief delay when a new game/round is started, during which players cannot move; this is completely normal and does not affect gameplay afterwards. Another side effect of Infraction's special effects is that the map only works properly with Slayer, Infection, and some Juggernaut and VIP game variants.

The Rundown
Major power weapons on map:
Gravity Hammer (2)
Rocket Launcher (2)
Sniper Rifle (1)
Beam Rifle (1)
Energy Sword (2)
Shotgun (1)

Recommended numbers of players:
4-12

Recommended gametypes:
Team Slayer
FFA Slayer
Infection
FFA Juggernaut
Multiteam VIP

Map- Duality

This is the updated version of my original unfinished map called Gauntlet. This A.S.L.A arena will test your accuracy, agility and teamwork thoroughly. It is played specifically with the gametype Gauntletball. There is absolutely no "morphing" used for this map. Although, it remains symetrical and aesthetically pleasing. Duality was created to enhance Action Sack as a playlist and provide an official Arena for our clan. "Action Sack League Of America" or A.S.L.A.

Gametype- Gauntletball

A.S.L.A's highly challenging Team Oddball. Battle rifles to start. 200 points to win. 6-8 players.

Using this gametype for Duality caused us to run into a road block with the spawning for attackers and defenders. The problem turned into a blessing for the new concept though. Basically you will randomly spawn in red or blue base in the start. This causes absolutely no problems with the game however. This limitation is caused by the fact that Team Oddball has limited spawning capabilities.

If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to msg me on XBL with my tag "ACTlON SACK" That's a lower case L for an I.

*Credit goes to "ACTlON SACK and Action Sac Hero" for this map and gametype.*

Confusion, A Halo 3 Course Map and Game Variant for Sandbox.
Confusion is my first Halo 3 map where you have obstaces to overcome and challenges to face. From Killballs, traps, and rolling a golfball, to driving mongooses through nodes and off of mancannons. This isn't the best course map in the world, but I gave it a try. For 1 Player only. (Note that you do need both the map AND game variants to play.)

Graveyard and Ghostball.

Ive had so much fun playing this with my friends that last few days everyone tells me I should try and get it on Bungies Favorites, so I guess Ill try my luck posting it on here. Graveyard is a Sandbox map, basically, its a graveyard, the map was made for the gametype because its insanely easy to lose the "ghost" in. There is a sword hidden on the map, two shotguns, and 6 BR's.

Ghostball, is an Oddball gametype, everyone spawns with a pistol and a plasma pistol. The ball carrier, becomes a ghost, forced white with poor camo. They also become faster, however their shields drain slowly, so you're going to have learn to evade your way through all the gravestones on graveyard. Try it out! I cant wait to remake this for Reach, with a new forge and all the different armor abilities I can see this being even better.

Best played with 4-16 players. The more the better.

I just can't step away from Halo, ever scince i was 7!
Reach,Reach,Reach!

The map is called rounded, the reson being is that all the pathways lead back round to the center. It is setup for Team Slayer, Capture The Flag, King Of The Hill and Team Oddball. There is a little to be explored but it is symmetrical and would work well with MLG. It was made by me and took two days to make and perfect. The download link is Here:

Baseball:
Spawn with Gravity Hammers, mainly like normal baseball, but the ball=pitcher in the mongoose, batter=player with gravity hammer. Batter hits the mongoose driving at him and runs to 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc. Pitcher (still in the mongoose) gets back and tries to get to the base before the batter can get there. There are different variations with stands, home bases, etc. Can be played on either Valhalla or Snowbound.

Sahara Doomsert (Sandbox Map-Varient): absolutely perfect for capture the flag unique structure and design allows for great in-game play perfect for team mythic 1 flag CTF. The attack side for capture the flag will be spawned with a warthog a chopper and a ghost, however the defense side will spawn with chopper, ghost complete with spartan laser and rocket launcher. The assualt side spawns with overshields and the defense side spawns with active camo. Sniper posts are also placed at each "base" if you will for slayer objective games also. Both bases spawn with a shotgun and protection through out their sides. Needler is in the center of the map assault rifle and plasma rifle's are near center. Spiker's and SMG's are also placed near center. This is an asymmetrical map but the sides are balanced out even though not the same. Ideal number of player is 4 perfect for team mythic. Defense side has Battle Rifle carbine and mauler's near the base. Map Varient is located here http://www.bungie.net/Online/Halo3UserContentDetails.aspx?h3f ileid=114139146 and game varient is located here http://www.bungie.net/Online/Halo3UserContentDetails.aspx?h3f ileid=114114740 thanks to bungie halo 3 and my inspiration.

Check out Bedrock. That's cool, too.

My map is a fairly simple but amazing arena suitable for all gamemodes: Warehouse G. Try it for yourself. I'm not one for descriptions, but it is awesome.
