Mapper with 9 years of experience.

Do you actually compile the extra assets into the map, or are people going to need to setup packs for their players?

Just curious as I see you use other games assets in gm_devastation.

For props coming from games such as INFRA, I intend to replace with my own modelled props and pack into the .bsp before release. Left 4 Dead props I'm unsure what to do with right now, but I know there's a controversy including other games content. STALKER and Metro props have been downloaded from Gamebanana and are publicly available, so will probably not pack those in except for the textures.

You should show more maps, if you've been working on maps for 9 years you gotta have some more than just 2 to be proud of and show off, doesn't have to be all images (although I'd recommend putting them all on your portfolio) but you can post facepunch links and what not to maps you've released/made.

You can even date them towards then and now so people can see your growth and know you're a legit mapper.

Good thought. I've posted a bit of content in the WIP pimpage thread over the years, so I'll search up some of those and link to the stuff that still exists, portfolio only allows for 30~ images while it's free so will sort that via Imgur albums eventually. I would have more stuff if I didn't loose all of my Portal 2, older L4D2 and HL2 stuff in a HDD crash a couple years ago.

Edited Alright, I spent the whole night digging up alot of old stuff and have added it to my portfolio, how's that? ^^ Also added a link to my Twitch (which doesn't contain anything right now), but will try to stream as often as I'm using Hammer editor, and will keep them up after, as VODs

I've worked on some of my own ones ages and ages ago, it's nothing different from making "non-RP" maps really aslong as you know what you want in it.

How to remove brush limit in Hammer? I've seen it done many times 0.0

Um, that's not part of this page description try asking this in a more appropriate place and not in a "hire me" section

Need some help turning brushes into props, and also optimizing the map a bit.

Please dont write your posts in here unless you want to hire me to develop a map from scratch.

That is why I'm here; to show off what I can do and not decompile and edit RP map #472846 for your le-epic trolfaec roleplay server etc etc

I need a map edited and compiled with another. i sent you a message on your website aswell. My steam name is ForsaknPredator. please add me and email me at [email protected] if you are interested

Sorry, I'd prefer not to do map edits due to several reasons, one is that decompiled maps are a complete mess and breaks optimization (among aloooot of other things) which I will not want to spend time fixing up - and editing a decompiled map together with another decompiled map is bound to cause even more trouble that won't be worth it.

And mainly also because I'd much rather have a chance to be creative and make a map from scratch than mess with someone elses work that I have no idea what the thought process behind it was the way it was originally built.

I love your mapping ethics, great to see a mapper who isn't just going to edit a decompiled version of downtown and claim to be some pro mapper.

Yeah, I want to respect other mappers by not shitting all over their work, when I'm (as a fellow mapper) fully aware of how much time, frustration, sweat and tears they've spent to make their baby come to fruition lol

Hello, I wanted to talk with you about some map addons you can make, we got permission from the original owner of the map and we only want minor upgrades to the map. Please give me a good way to contact you.

How minor are we talking here? And how big is this map? Do you have the original .vmf from the author or is this going to be a shoddy decompile?

Well we needed a few things added into the map, and the map itself is not that big. The original author of the map is Xyz_, and he gave us permission to work on the map! Could you give me a skype or discord name so that we could talk?

I'll add you on Steam later today when I'm available if that's alright with you, and we can discuss these map edits to see if It's something I'll want to spend time doing depending on the map size and if you have the .vmf in handy

Hey I own a Star Wars Clone Wars server and was wondering if you could edit the Venator to make it better and I have the owner's permission.
