I see individual threads come and go where guys, who are very talented in Forge, will post up a remake they made but the threads then quickly disappear. Rather than hoping to get lucky and see one when I stop by this forum, I figured it would be more efficient if we had a single thread dedicated to forge remakes of classic Halo maps.
I know many of us love hosting games with friends on these remakes and figure we could help each other out by keeping this thread active, and letting the forgers know to post in here.
Let’s get some added on here!
Gamertag…Map Name…Classic Map
Cant Stop Donut…Spark…Lockout
DHG Sushijuice…Genesis…Uncaged
thesuicidefox…Skyron…Chiron TL34
Caprandude14…Chasm…The Pit
Guys I have been informed that there is a much better community thread for these types of creations. Please go to this thread to contribute!

Let’s not worry about the file share right now. If you know the name of the map and the gamertag, you can still find them no problem.
Besides I can list them up and keep this going for the long term that way anyone can download them now or later.

If you let me know the name of the map, and the classic map it represents, I’ll add them to the original post.

Thank you! Added it to the OP. I will follow up with the OP in the Community thread to make sure we tie these together.
The traffic there isn’t an issue, they get plenty of exposure. And the group behind it has been gathering remakes and posting them since the early days of Halo Reach. They have stickies on both the Waypoint and Bungie forums. When it comes down to it, you’ll get more traffic from a sticky, than you will from a typical thread.
Ultimately though maintaining a thread like this is a lot of work, there is a group of people that help maintain the other one, are you ready to put in the work necessary to keep it up? If you aren’t, then this will just distract from the more natural place for forge content to be posted.
i would love to see a re-make of lockout, but scaled for AA use. so it would be larger.
i remember they did a 1:1 in reach and it felt really small due to the AA’s.
Then you will be my new best friend, although 3 of the 4 levels listed above and next to impossible with the crappy forge pallets, canvas and tools they have given us.

I agree with you 100% and I wouldn’t want to detract from the thread. Tell you what, I will modify the OP here to reference the other thread.
Remake of Warlock I did on my file share named Magus. Seems like some of the most fun maps I’ve played in H4 have been remakes through forge. I’ll look up some of the others. I know one is lockout from Ash55, then a foundation one. Let me go look that user up.
