United Source Development

Ehm... You've a nice profile name... Since that was nice, can I now give critism?

I never claimed they were meant to be amazing in terms of UI, just simply showing off the systems I've created.

For things like the MOTD it is all about the UI which you, sorry to say, clearly lack the skills and eye for it.

I have to agree that the UI you presented in every example looks quite bad.

You indeed never claimed that the UI you've shown is amazing but it only shows the level of your skill. You're simply showing off systems that you've created which in my eyes are quite bad and considered to be on an amateur level. Unfortunately, you present your work on a site that allows you to sell your services so you should expect critism.

Hope to see more examples with more effort spend on the UI. I wish you the best of luck but you cant sell scripts that are of this quality.

I appreciate your criticism and I respect your want to share your opinion with me. This whole post wasnt to push and say I'm amazing a glua and I'm excellent at UI code. The original post was for my group that specialized in mapping not gLua. A lot of those projects were old. The only recent one was the final one shown in a gif. A lot of systems I'm revisiting and redoing the ui and fixing a lot of bugs. In terms of the ui. If youd like to go on the channel of the videos I posted in the log you can see a video called "Ship Purchase System V2" that was the original video of the final post in the gif. The Ui has been severely rehauled and a lot of fixes have happened. Again I really do appreciate the criticism I just didnt like the way threebow stated his points but I would gladly accept criticism from anyone who is willing to give it. I'm always working to better my skills and create something people will enjoy using. Hope this clears any misconception up. (Am typing on my phone sorry for any spelling mistakes)

The gif id

I agree, the UI in the gif is of a much better quality than the rest and probably that shows you're improving.

What I meant to say is that the other scripts are quite common and there are alot of variations of them. The only thing that then stands out and seperates you as developer is the UI that is presented. Ofcourse code effience is very important but we can't see the code so we cannot judge on that.

Don't let the comments influence you in a bad way as we try to be honest, I see you do your best to improve which is what will get you there eventually.

(I am not a developer myself so to me you have talent and skills which has room for improvements)

Goodluck bud!

"The original post was for my group that specialized in mapping not gLua."

??

Why are you comparing the original post to my website. I never once said I couldn't code gLua or It didn't qualify as a specialty to me. Im saying in specific context. This post on this website was for mapping. Not gLua.

You made a post about your group in which you linked a website that is specific to your group where it states specifically that it specifically specializes specifically in gLua. How does this not specify what you were specifically stating in that specific context with those specific words?

IE, you linked the website as a portfolio for the group that makes maps, and on the website it says the group specializes in gLua.

Also, one of your "testimonies":

Mason is a capable coder as he made several scripts for the server one of them restricting access to prop spawning to admins and designated ULX roles only. I had saw other scripts that did the same thing, but Mason's was the most efficient and less complicated.

Your code to restrict access to prop spawning to admins was the most efficient....

if(ply:GetUserGroup() == "admin") then return true else return false end

I appreciate your criticism gentlemen. I could spend time dissecting everything you presented but I'm consumed by other things at the moment. Your more then welcome to message me on discord and concerns you may have. I will out write say your statement is false but you can continue with your opinions as you wish. Have a good day gentlemen.

My statement was false? So that wasn't a testimony on your website?

Haha its actually hilarious to read threads on here! Id love to see some more constructive criticism from you guys hahaha

And seriously get yourself a designer if you dont have a good eye for design, if you know gLua should be pretty simple to copy off a design if you have a mockup.

Personally I'm not a fan of the UI at all. There's always room for improvement, but those screenshots are very very basic. The road to UI is a long one. I've seen so many of those "dark background with opacity" interfaces, that I typically don't even accept them as a script anymore if I'm reviewing it. UIs in gmod are practically limitless, if you have the patience and the eye. I too was guilty of it in the earlier days of making interfaces, but as you progress you start straying away from those layouts. No reason to do an interface like that when there's some pretty cool stuff you can make if you put your mind to it.

thanks for the input, I'm always looking to improve myself and move towards making better content. Side note, can you delete this thread? I'm working on a lot of newer content and I hope to make a new one.
