Sandbox combines large-scale vehicular combat with a limitless amount of Forge customization. Boasting a tiered, open-world layout, “Halo 3” players will be able to build their own unique game experiences using the Forge map editor. Sandbox is a map unlike any Bungie has ever created.

Welcome back to another map! Today I bring you Sandbox from Halo 3! If you are a halo 3 veteran as much as myself, you'll already know everything about this map and how it was a big deal for custom games making. Aside from all of that, time to get to the point. Sandbox was a quick few hours build and something to do while I took a break from a map similar to the Take and Hold map. The map about stays true to it's original self. That means it includes its surface and underground areas all being connected via hole and it's main big background detail The Guardians. Now you can relive Sandbox from it's glory days of Halo 3 and use it as a build map like any other map designed for building purposes.



-- Functioning Guardians
:
"In Halo 3, the Guardians served as a out-of-bounds kill zone designed to well, kill any out-of-bounds players. In the Gmod recreation, the Guardians are the same as they ever were with a bit of a difference. Instead of shooting any plasma beams, it will laser the player with a draining beam until killed or re-enters the map. In Halo 3 you could build a tunnel out-of-bounds and be protected from the endless barrage of plasma shots. The story stays the same in Gmod. You can use props to block the laser from the Guardians and stay alive."


-- Surface and Underground Area


-- Holographic GRID
:
"The grid is measured exactly 64 hammer units in case that matters to anyone. If you find the Grid to be annoying in a way, you can also disable/re-enable it using the buttons near the entrance to the underground area."

-- HDR and LDR Lighting

-- Custom SoundScapes

-- AI Nodes For Part of Surface and Entire UnderGround
:
"This isn't needed but I'm all about NPCS/AI so I couldn't resist."

-- Secret Skull
:
"Just like in Halo 3, there is a skull hidden somewhere in the map that you can find just for fun."

-- Navigation Mesh

Thank you for checking out this map and possibly leaving any support! Until next map release, See ya!
