Conflux is a symmetrical competitive map set in a Forerunner facility on the edge of a cliff. It was designed with a "tug of war" style of flow, where team positioning and careful movement through the center are emphasized.

Teams start the match facing the center platform in the main atrium, with the base of a large beam emitter blocking the line of sight from spawn to spawn. Each team spawn has a large doorway in the middle, with a direct line of sight from the center platform. Walking through this doorway will lead you to a deployable Grav Lift, followed by a one-way drop-down to the center floor. From here, players can move to take the Overshield or move to the gold lift that will take them up to a raised platform that overlooks the center platform.

Each team's base has one middle room flanked by an elevated room that grants them access to the center platform and a lower room that will lead them to the gold lift. Each team will find a Sniper Rifle in this lower room. Looking towards the back of the lower room, players will find a doorway leading to another room with a long, "elbow" shaped ramp leading them up to a bridge that will take them back to their spawn or to a hallway that leads to the top of the gold lift.

Players that move to the elevated room in their base will find a small platform that overlooks their side of the central atrium, which they can also use to jump to the center platform. In this same area, players will another overlook that has dominance over an overhang on the cliffside that runs the length of the map. At the center of this location is a man cannon that players can use to launch themselves to the center platform. The Overshield spawns just in front of the man cannon.

The map is designed primarily for CTF and Slayer, although it supports all of the default Halo 3 gametypes.

The weapon and equipment set on the map include the following:
3 Battle Rifles per side.
2 Assault Rifles per side.
2 Brute Plasma Rifles per side.
2 SMGs per side.
1 Auto Mag per side.
1 Sniper Rifle per side.
1 Deployable Grav Lift per side.
1 Sentinel Beam under the center platform.
1 Gravity Hammer on the center platform.
1 Power Drain at the gold lift.
1 Bubble Shield at the man cannon.
1 Overshield between the man cannon and the center platform.

How to install and play:
-Navigate to the install location of Halo: The Master Chief Collection
-Go to the Halo 3 folder, and then the maps folder
-Backup the file called docks.map by either renaming it, or moving it to another folder
-Drag the new docks.map file into the maps folder

Great looking map! Looks like it could be a Bungie original.

 

Thanks for sharing here.

Thats really neat, didn't know people were making H3MCC maps (no idea how people do it for that game). Might download the game again and take a break from infinite....

I'd love to find someone that does games and ratings for these custom maps, much like @(SBB) Storm does for CE.

The Mega links have been updated with the new version of the map/UI files, and I added the MLG variant of the map as well.

I decided to release all source files and tags for people to play around with. The OP has been updated with the link.
