Avoid work with Halo 3 Foundry Designer

Do you consider yourself something of a level designing virtuoso in Halo 3? Do you dream about creating maps? Maybe you wish you could, but you just don't have the time. You have no excuses now, thanks to Foundry Designer, a flash application created by PureCallum. As its name implies, Foundry Designer lets you create a draft of a level on Halo 3's Foundry map. It lets you place objects, rotate them and it even keeps track of your building budget just like the real thing. Once finished, you can print out your creation for easy reference. We used it to create the masterpiece you see above. We put some real thought into it, and we believe that it's the most balanced map ever created for Halo 3.

Now if only this application could actually let you sign in to your gamertag and download the finished map to your fileshare...I'd be really excited to see what people could come up with once the clunky Forge controls were done away with.

Not to mention things people Forge while at work, etc.

that would be the best, specially since forge is a pain in the ass sometimes getting items in a specific spot

After using Valvehammer to make Counter Strike maps for years, Forge was a huge letdown. I'd like to make something, but the interface is pure crap.
