"Before you insult someone, try walking a mile in their shoes. This way, when you insult them, you are a mile away and have their shoes."

Well, allow me to say, Bungie, it's great you allow us to make map variants in Halo 3, it's a great tool for making different stuff or just to play around. However, let's make forge a tool that both advanced and unadvanced people can use.

New Items to be applied:

-90 degree Snapper
-Fix tool (to immediatly fix stuff)
-Float tool (to allow things to float without tricks)
-Unlimited items (Make a budget, but add no restriction on items allowed)
-Texture Editing (skin choice, etc.)
-Copy and Paste tool
-Group tool
-Glue/Sticky Tool
-Property Tool (things bounce? Glow?)
-Terraforing
-Death Barrier Editing
-Reserved for more.

Now, here is a new idea which can be on the computer and/or 360.

Map Maker:

-Work on computer and/or 360.
-Allows you to make complete maps, canvas, designs, etc.
-Maps have limits, such as the amount of space and detail allowed.
-Allows death barrier editing and map creation.
-Coding is allowed, not required.
-Works like forge, maybe a little more advanced?

Bungie would have to make some system that allows those maps to be placed in file shares and downloaded, and obviously, forged. Ideas, Comments?

No budget.

Plus, there needs to be copy and paste tool, and group tool.

It needs to be a glue tool to make stuff stick to eachother.

The ability to add trees, rocks, snow, grass and water

and maybe the ability to create hills, you could do that in the sims 1 so it can;t be that hard.

The objects should be better organised and things should be added:

Weapons - All the FP weapons + flamethrower
Turrets - Both stationary and portable turrets
Vehicles - All vehicles
Granades - All granades
Equipments - all equipments
Scenery - everything from scenery accept things like e.g. kill balls, canon man and energy doors.
Objects - Things that effect the gameplay more or less like canon man, kill balls and energy doors.
Terrain - Natural things like trees and rocks.
