Interested in making a map.

Hey guys, I'm interested in hiring a mapper to create a custom HL2RP map for my server. Does anyone know any reliable mappers? Or would anyone be interested in helping me out? Money is not a problem for me.

if money isnt an issue the post above is your route

 

About how much is it?

 

I thought it wasn't an issue?

 

No offense Aflac but even if money isn't an issue. People like to know how much they have to put into their paypal accounts to have ready to pay them before forcing them to wait for the 2-5 day process of the payment. .-.
Even I ask how much. And money is never an issue, it's common courtesy.

 

10 dollars and hour, and I'm trying to make a mix of c17 and i17. This should be interesting.

 

i doubt he's gonna wanna work off of other people's stuff without perms, and idk that seems like a really tall order

 

I was joking. Sorry about that.
$10/hr for small, quick projects. Bigger maps he'll probably set up a payment plan with you. It's on the "about" page.

 

I apologize bby. I'm just cranky I promise, ;.;

OT: Mappers are extremely expensive. I'm still finding a good time to pester Dan to continue my project but we're also both busy

 

Combining i17 and an empty box would probably exceed the brush limit. I'm pretty sure Apoc used some little tricks to squeeze that whole map into a compile.

 

What i meant is i wanted to make a map based off those too. I like certian parts of each map alot. I would base an idea off of that.

 

OffT: Speaking of brushing limits, I was told by Dan22 that C18 is at it's/near it's brushing limit but it's like the second smallest hl2rp map? Someone explain?

OT: C17i itself is just a huge ass map. And you wanna add to it? I mean 60% of people cannot run the map itself due to all the active stuff on the map. A) It's way too big B) If you managed to make it, do you honestly think many people can run it on CW?

EDIT: I just saw your post after I posted mine.

So if I'm correct. You want ideas from both maps combined to make a new map?

 

Yes, thats exactly what i want to do. I'm not a very good artist so my blueprints will be shit. Ive always wondered why servers didnt use custom maps and I feel that could help my server grow. We are already doing well, averaging 6-10 players on week days.

 

Please just know this. It is not cheap. At all. It requires extensive communication as you are paying someone to basically paint an empty canvas, a canvas based off two other art pieces.
So this will not be cheap. For my map it was about.. 800 due to the fact it's hl2rp based and it's a completely new one.(e.g unedited map, started from scratch.)
And the map is about the size of C45 maybe, minus a 1/5th of it

EDIT:
I say try to negotiate with the mapped you were linked to. Get an idea of how.. Plausible your idea is. Even if you get rejected, he can maybe help you know what you want from both maps, ya know?

 

Jesus christ. I was expecting more like $200-300

 

Hl2rp require a lot more work. Combine doors, civie/mpf spawners etc, etc. Not only do you have to make the map but correct me if I'm wrong @Corbulogistics there is also an extensive amount of coding to make it work with cwhl2rp

 

who the fuck charges 800$ for a map you have to be fucking insane

 

huh?
ive looked at the i17 and c18 vmfs and i didnt see any special entities or anything
cp spawns need to be configured ingame with /spawnpointadd
combine doors are made just by unticking the use open flag, the special coding to make it work is done in clockwork

 

func_door entities right?
