Hi 343
Not sure if the right place but I would like to put forward some suggestions, extra bits to add to forge that would go a long way:
- Water/Puddle decals
- Ability to change the colour of the ‘Smoke’ in FX - this would be a massive plus. Options currently very limited here.
- Ability to change the SkyBox lighting. Not to be confused with Screen Overlay/FX, which otherwise has to be manipulated for desired colours on dark lit maps (like indoor ones).
Separate from forge; is a suggestion for custom game setup menu: - Option to disable the user Tag that shows up when players aim at an enemy - currently a big arrow shows up with the tag.
This suggestion/feature would make modes where stealth is key, more enjoyable.
I’m an amateur to halo and Forge, I made a map with it and it really was a pleasure to use overall so I can’t fault it.
However; I think certain objects laden with transparent AA like foliage/trees and bushes should be in a separate Budget from the objects budget. On the xbox the frame rate drops, if too many bushes are in (when facing at) the same vicinity - I’m not sure if AA is ultimately the problem - seems odd for an octal core machine to struggle with what appears to be pretty basic images.
Did I read correct that grouping items can maybe improve performance?
Many thanks in advance.
