Forging Tips Tricks and Glitches

Hello! Here you can learn some forging tips, glitches, and tricks to make your forging map awesome! If I find more tricks or glitches I will post them right away.


Quick Tips:

  • Don’t rush making your maps, especially when using these glitches. If the map is neat then it looks 5x better than it is.
  • Be patient doing these glitches, it takes a wile to get some of these down.
  • I advise when you forge, you should only forge with 1-2 people. More people and it will get hard to keep track of what everyone is building.
  • Don't want someone to name one of YOUR maps named as THEIRS? My suggestion would be to save the gameplay of you creating the map in theater. If you are using a forge glitch that requiers you ending the game, just save the part of you building the most.
Glitches and Tricks for Your Maps!

Merging

I would advise to make a respawn point or anything that will help you center your objects.
Click the image to open in full size.

Place the object that will be the bottom of your structure.
Click the image to open in full size.
Then make the respawn at start “no”. If you can’t do the next step quickly make the respawn time quicker.

Start a new round and place the upper part of your structure down. Be sure to center it with the other object. This is difficult since you can’t see the object.

After you let the first object spawn make the Respawn at start “yes”. Once you have doen this you are finished!

Make Objects Float
First spawn the object you want to make float.
Click the image to open in full size.
Then place the object in the position you would like. Stay holding it and save the map, then end the game.

Start the game with the saved map and you got it to float!
Click the image to open in full size.

Now make it anything you want. I like making sniper towers this way.

Make Fusion Coils, Weapons, or Vehicles Fall from Sky

Make a double box closed and turn it facing upward.
Click the image to open in full size.

Then place the fusion coils, weapons, or vehicles on the top of the box.
Click the image to open in full size.

Delete the box and then shot the fusion coils, weapons, of vehicles and make them fall. (or just restart round)
Click the image to open in full size.
Click the image to open in full size.

WARNING: Fusion coils are highly explosive!

Merging Objects into the Ground

Before you start doing this, the person WITHOUT connection host is the only one that can do this. You can't do this in a party by yourself.

First place the object you want to merge inside the ground.
Click the image to open in full size.

Then in the middle of the object, tap the A button rapidly. Once you see the object inside the ground, tell you friend to restart the round.
Click the image to open in full size.
Click the image to open in full size.

You’re done!
Click the image to open in full size.



Making a trap

Place a A or B sign.
Click the image to open in full size.

Then place to wall on both sides.
Click the image to open in full size.

Then place a dumpster inside.
Click the image to open in full size.

Place a Custom Power up or an Active camouflage in front of the dumpster or you can call it NOOB Bait. (not an over shield it will keep the victim from dieing J.
Click the image to open in full size.

Now place the ManCannon very low or it will make the dumpster fly out upward.
Click the image to open in full size.

Now watch the victim of your trap get OWND.
Click the image to open in full size.
Click the image to open in full size.



Geo-Merging

This way of merging does not require not having host.

First place the object you wish to Geo-Merge.
Click the image to open in full size.

Next place two Sender or Two-way teleporters on both sides.
Click the image to open in full size.

Put a door on top of the object as shown.
Click the image to open in full size.

The put a receiver teleporter on each corner.
Click the image to open in full size.

Then go to the box and click A. It should sink to the ground a little.
Click the image to open in full size.

Then click the receiving teleporters down and same with the door.

Then repeat the process of clicking A and making it sink. Keep repeating this until you have made it sink to the depth you want.
Click the image to open in full size.

Yea I know, mine came crooked.

You can do the same with double boxes, just double everything up.
Click the image to open in full size.
Click the image to open in full size.

And now you have successfully geo-merged.




Again I will say that if I find anymore helpful things I will post them here.

If you ever need In-Game help with these you can always ask me and I will be glad to help!

Thanks, thought this would be a pointless tut. For everyone reading this I'm going to make a tut for GeoMerging. If you have any other thing you want to learn how to do post it here.

If you want to make the videos for these glitches and tricks with me please send me a friend request.

I fun way to make it is if you make it look like it's apart of a wall and have the cammo. It tricks people all the time.

Re: Forging: Tips, Tricks, And Glitches!

Thanks, and by the way the thing you did with the trap is helpful in other ways, other than killing people. I like to use them for doors. So I'll set the trap like normal, but give enough room for someone to run past the power-up. Also I put the power-up far enough back to where it blocks the dumpster, but so they can grab it without dieing. Just set it to Respawn(Never) and it will keep pushing the dumpster back in place. Just one of my suggestions. But anyway thanks and good starter Tut.

That's a pretty good idea, I think I might try that on one of my maps.

Re: Forging: Tips, Tricks, And Glitches!

A couple quick tips. To make an object float, rather than restarting the round and everything, just put something below the object, then delete whatever is below it and the object on top will be floating. Also, what I find to be an easier way to merge objects into the ground is just inter lock the object, then when you go to move it, it will usually just sink into the ground rather than move...
