SANDBOX MAPS (REMAKES AND ORIGINALS)
***BEST SKETCHUP DATABASE


1. INTRODUCTION

Ive been lurking the forge forums for a while now, downloading maps all the time, and have appreciated the work you guys have put into the maps. I wanted to make this for a while, just keeping a thread where people can find the best Sandbox maps, according to some requirements Ive set. Linking to each sandbox map wouldn't make much sense because there's so many, so Ill try to host the ones the community deems worthy. According to the new sticky on the forums, I think this thread is allowed, granted that Ive posted the threads and pictures, and not the other way around. please inform me if its breaching any sort of rules. Thanks

2. REQUIREMENTS*

Maps must have pictures in the thread
A Bungie fileshare link is provided in the thread
A significant amount of users have responded that its a good map
-OR-
A significant amount of downloads of the map (According to the fileshare, the exact number will be set soon)
Must be a map in the Crypt, Actual Sandbox ground, or Sky Bubble
Must be within maps boundaries
Must be in Budget


*More Requirements may be set.

3. MAPS

3.1. Halo Remakes

Some of the maps found here can be located in the Halo 2 remake thread (http://www.mlgpro.com/forum/showthread.php?t=233270), but I have chosen the best of the bunch, reading up on comments, studying pictures, and paying attention to the amount of downloads. As better remakes are posted, I will update and switch the maps with their successors.

Hang em High Remake by jeremy1287 (http://www.mlgpro.com/forum/showthread.php?t=234787)

Let me know if you have any suggestions and or concerns. I have updated the map so the pictures are not up to date. Send friend request to KO_mmmmmmmmmmmm.(12 m's) Hope you enjoy!

DAMNATION REMAKE (HALO 1)

Damnation Remake by II Synthetic II (http://www.forgehub.com/forum/competitive-maps/59363-process-damnation-remake.html)
So basically, when I got Sandbox, I started messing around with a true Damnation remake. Through an hour of playing around, I decided to dedicate some time to actually forging it.

ASCENSION REMAKE (HALO 2)

Ascension Remake by Cashed (http://www.forgehub.com/forum/competitive-maps/60935-ascension.html)
A direct remake using Sandbox. Well, "remake" being "I think this is what Ascension was like in Halo 2..." You'll find no rotating dish in the center, but I'm sure you'll enjoy your stay. The layout is pretty faithful to the original map, only missing a few railings, which I would love to have added had I not hit the object limit. The map is configured for every gametype.

SANCTUARY REMAKE (HALO 2)

Sanctuary 2.0 Remake by BRaaaaaaaaaaaKe (http://www.mlgpro.com/forum/showthread.php?t=239962)
Hey everybody I have made a Sanctuary remake with my own twist incorporated into it. I have also used some ideas from other maps to make the best Sanctuary out there. If you guys have any suggestions that I should fix on the map shoot and have fun

Sanctuary Remake by ThadJarvice (http://www.forgehub.com/forum/competitive-maps/60459-sanctuary-ruins.html)
This is a map i created to have very similar gameplay to the original. My first attempt at a map, so keep that in mind.

BEAVER CREEK REMAKE (HALO 2)

Beaver Creek Remake by EazyB (http://www.mlgpro.com/forum/showthread.php?t=242212)
This is a Beaver/Battle Creek remake based on the popular Halo 2 map. Forger EazyB built this map from the ground up and identical to the halo 2 version. His version was designed for standard (non mlg) game types and included all weapons from the Halo 2 Beaver Creek.

OCTAGON REMAKE (HALO 3)

Octagon Remake by UnknOWNBAMF (http://www.mlgpro.com/forum/showthread.php?t=235384)
Well since there has been a huge reaction to "Octagon" 1v1's I decided to make my own version on sandbox. Which is not thrown together like a crappy junior high kid. And don't worry- everything is set up the same way the other one is, just in a neater fashion.

3.2 Sandbox Originals

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cryptoline by xPurple (http://www.mlgpro.com/forum/showthread.php?t=239090)
Cryptoline is a reinvisionment of my first map Adrenaline Beta(Co-Forged with xZonked), which was a Midship style Two-Base. Some features of the Beta were drastically changed from v1, v2 and v3, and many people were not happy that the map itself wasn't very much like the Beta itself. I was going to make this on Foundry, but when pictures of the Crypt came out, I knew I had to make this in Sandbox. This map stayed very true to the original base and tower designs, with a much needed improved middle.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cynosure by PulseKiller (http://www.mlgpro.com/forum/showthread.php?t=235534)

Cynosure is an asymmetrical map forged in the skybubble of Sandbox. It features many different elevations, multiple power positions, and a few power weapons to ensure that gameplay is fast paced, balanced, and fun. The map has two towers, Red and Blue, with two side areas to each tower.

MLG True t7 by Triplex771 (http://www.mlgpro.com/forum/showthread.php?t=239914)

Mlg True is a map thats like no other with a fast pace map such as onslaught with the team work and less frustration of spawns . Keep your head up it's gona get ugly lol.

MLG Fan Made Map: Thioxise by bblegend (http://www.mlgpro.com/forum/showthread.php?t=235637)

It's a map called "Thioxise." To be used with a MLG Multi-Flag varient, (first to 5 caps wins.) 2 second return. Its a symmetrical map with a raised base at either end. Similar to "MLG Onslaught." But has two towers with minimum cover. (easy grenade spot) Rockets spawn in the middle on a raised bridge, only two rockets in the chamber, a mauler in front of each base for a quick flag assault, and a carbine in each corner of the map.

MLG Redemption by RedBulll, Caesar, and Shortfuse (http://www.forgehub.com/forum/mlg-maps/62662-mlg-redemption.html)

MLG Redemption is a 4 vs 4 symetrical map made in the crypt of sandbox. It is compatible with CTF & Assault game types and features the following:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MLG Pressure by Karbine Kid & IanHershey (http://www.forgehub.com/forum/mlg-maps/60813-mlg-pressure.html)

MLG Pressure is a map placed in the Skybox. Its symmetrical and can relate its self to Onslaught, with a mix of warlock too.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Eyas by Jeff is I (2 v 2) (http://www.mlgpro.com/forum/showthread.php?t=241108)

My idea with Eyas was to not make Onslaught. I wanted to make a map that no one has seen before, this is the product. She's set up for Slayer only just because the map is too small IMO to do anything else. Sniper spawns top red, Mauler bottom mid (Mauler doesn't spawn until 3 minutes into the game so one team doesn't start with it.) The rest of the weapons are 'nades, carbines and BRs. Critique is welcome.

While this thread is a good idea, and I am flattered that you included my map, the idea is that the good maps will remain on the first page of the forum, and the bad maps will be bumped off the first page and eventually die off.

If you keep this updated, and actually put effort into this entire thread like you have so far, i could see this working, but if you dont work on it, it will just die off, like Kronic's halo 2 thread.

Uhhh, I have a thread that is a lot like this, and is filled with Halo 2 remakes. Though I will admit yours is better, mine has been out for over a month, so I really do not think this was necessary to make.

Nice job with the thread though. +Rep.

Read my remake portion, your thread is in there, including some maps I found on my own :)

I just took the best of the bunch, because some of the maps you featured weren't to good imo

and thanks black jesus, im checking Utah Mamba right now

EDIT: Im not sure about UTAH, it has vehicles and such...

Do you have a variant with no vehicles?
