Subject: Minor Forging Issues, any Advice?

I'm having a problem with my Forge created map running as a custom game, despite having been specifically designed for Capture the Flag. I'm not sure of the restrictive protocols for Flag Poles and Recovery Plates, other than one per team for the simplest form of Ctf, so if anyone has an idea of why the map won't load up, let me know. I'm currently sharing the "Master Map" with all the doo-dahs that I'm currently pruning to make specific for each type of play as apparently, I can't have all types mixed on one map either. I would really like to see the map run properly, and not just under the Forge, so I'm open to any suggestions as to why the thing won't work. Thanks! -JSA Gen Dozer

Do you get a message in the custom game lobby saying "Map is not compatible"?

Press x on the flag score and flag spawn points, look under the 'advanced' option and make sure each is a 'flag' point, I think it's 'spawn' and 'goal' accordingly.
If that doesn't help, I don't know.

The tag he wants is "CTF_flag_return".
In Reach you can't specify a different scoring area other than the flag itself, so the tag mentioned above turns the object used into both the flag spawn and the scoring point.
Giving each object a team helps too. :-P
