Mapper for Hire

#1

Hello Gmodstore!


Introduction

I am the Nut, owner of the Garnet Gaming which has been operating DarkRP and MilitaryRP servers since 2013. I have been involved in the Garry's Mod community for just short of a decade now, and as of the last few years I've really taken an interest in mapping which stemmed due to my own inability to find a reputable mapper to work alongside. Things progressed and I actually began enjoying my late night hammer sessions; seeing things either get created or optimized as they go from an unstable 30 FPS to a stable 100 in a taxing environment.


Why i'm offering my services

Unlike the majority of mappers I've come across who map-for-hire, I am here for reasons other than cash. I'm looking to gain more experience in hammer and level designing. So far I've created few maps from scratch, and primarily have been re-creating or improving pre-existing maps - whether it be aesthetically or in functionality via optimization. I'd really like to expand my knowledge past desert/forest terrains, and dive into things like SciFi.


Payment

As i've mentioned moments ago, I provide these services as a hobby/learning experience, and therefore I will not be charging as much as a typical mapper on GmodStore, however, I will also not accept silly projects that I do not wish to complete, IE: Nut can you remake rp_downtown, Nut would you please make my downtown look like Superior Servers'? When approaching me with a project, I'd like you to have a payment plan in mind, aswell as a blueprint for what you would like me to do!


Recent Works/Portfolio

RP_Garnet_Siberia A Military Roleplay-based map, heavily optimized. Delivered 300FPS (max) on a GTX 1060) and over 150 with a server at 128/128 users. Would likely be higher if it wasn't for unoptimized net-code. enter image description here

RP_Downtown_V4_Garnetedit RP_Downtown_V4 edit carried out for my community Garnet Gaming, with aeshetics and optimization in mind. I had over doubled the FPS my community was getting on average, with the majority of users reporting over 60 FPS with 100+ users on the server. enter image description here

RP_Rockford_Night A Rockford V2b map edit and optimization where I recreated rather large areas of the map as to stay well below the limits of the source engine, which the original map failed to do, as well as provide 73% more FPS to the average user on my server (average of 41 FPS with 40 users online raised to an average of 71) enter image description here

You are free to check out and investigate the maps on my own community's servers if you'd like!

Please replace the gayzo image links with something reputable like imgur at least. Good work on optimization though.

Appreciated. Mind if I ask why Gyazo is considered an unreputable host? I don't at all mind switching my images over, but I did pay for Gyazo pro haha.

Trying to view gayzo images on a mobile device will give you cancer, filled with ads etc. Real pros use ShareX. But I do see your ones don't have ads, so that might be from your pro subscription, which is still a waste imo.

Finally someone who knows how to decompile maps, edit them and then show how to use area portals. 10/10 ign.

Can you show some examples of maps you've made from scratch? Couldn't find any on your workshop profile that was original.

Makes me suspect that you're talents are limited to jacking other peoples work and repacking it as your own for a price.

Maybe you should try reading before making retarded posts.

I can almost feel your pride for making what you thought was "smart and offensive post", but really, anybody here that has read both our posts probably thinks you're a total idiot.

I posted screenshots of 2 maps I had made from scratch, and a single screenshot of a pre-existing map which I had SPECIFIED was retextured and optimized in order to specifically showcase my ability to optimize other people's maps, because guess what buddy? 90% of the jobs I've done to date have been to optimize pre-existing maps lmao. Your argument is that "I can only steal other people's content" do you realize how stupid you sound?

Edit: oh well, what did I expect from a skid running a pirated copy of SantosRP?

Hey man, I think it'd be cool to work with you sometime. Let me know if you ever want to collab on a map!

pls dude, just stop already. Yeah I know it feels cool to be roasting people like a few individuals here but the difference is, you have no valid points nor the ability to properly read threads.

Like, the guy is legit saying he hasn't made anything fully from scratch and he isn't in it for the money but for the learning experience and you then say he's limited to jacking other people's work?

Also, before you pull out "this isn't a place for learning!1!!1!" card then let me say this: In my eyes, his work is good enough to be paid for, especially considering he's saying he's doing it for a reduced price because he isn't that good at mapping yet.

I'm sorry to say this to you but from all my encounters with you (on gmodstore forums) you've been nothing but annoying and rude, please just stop.

Soz I guess I got confused when you were offering mapping services. I'd think it would be up to a bit of ambiguity in the interpretation because you wrote:

I am here for reasons other than cash

but then go on to say,

...I will not be charging as much as a typical mapper on GmodStore,_

but then you say,

I was genuinely confused with how you structured your post. This is why I was lead to my assumption.

So far I've only had to re-create or improve already existing mapsSo far I've created few maps from scratch, and primarily have been re-creating or improving pre-existing maps

And since I posted, you have changed your stance to be more than just editing maps.

... 90% of the jobs I've done to date have been to optimize pre-existing maps lmao.

Can you post some pictures or upload to workshop the 10% of original content you've created? Sorry for coming off adversarial in my first post.

How does that even relate to this whole topic? Please just leave gmodstore and don't come back, you're only annoying at this point.

Welp, even though my post was at no point poorly written, I HAVE updated it over time to be more professional/representative and I'd say your inability to comprehend was not at all my fault, as evident by your severely lack of brain capacity. You can feel free to join any of my servers to view my maps made from scratch, and I could give you the names of a couple communities I'd done custom mapping for in the past (assuming they're still up). I have not made any public projects for the workshops, simply because of the amount of edits/reuploads people will post against your will, if not make a profit off of your work by claiming it as their own. It's a fishy place.

I see, a member of Bob's community, welp, what do you expect when you owner can't comprehend 2 basic English paragraphs.

PS Building via minecraft blocks is indeed much easier than using hammer.

Oh, excuse me for accidentally logging onto the wrong account? I'm glad you're very analytical of what people post about you on a content creation website, it's not like you have better things to do with your time.

I can vouch for Garnet. He's a good guy, hard worker, and knows his stuff. If you need a map done, he is definitely the guy to go to.
