2 questions:

How?

And more importantly - Why?

There's a tree at the bottom of my garden with some coders on it. I'll pick some for you, and e-mail them as soon as I can.

A coder won't start a mod without the necessary enthusiasm, vision and dedication. You won't find a coder who joins your project just by posting a quick thread in a forum.

What exactly is it you're trying to do? HL2 on the HL1 engine? Without the gravity gun? What's the point? It's funny, yes, kinda like "Codename Gordon", but that's a LOT of work for funny...

if you can't map, can't code or can't see sarcasm when it's staring you in the face, wtf can you do, other than maybe sign up to forums with multiple accounts?

Wow, sorry, but that's pathetic. I thought you're at least an experienced mapper, but if you can neither map nor code, then all you have is... well... an "idea"?

Basically, you got nothing and you want other people to build a custom mod for you?

I'd feel sorry for you if you weren't so damn stubborn and loud with this. By now you should have noticed that the way you do this annoys the s**t out of people. You should have noticed that you're terribly unsuccessful in getting any of the stuff you'd like to do done. You should have noticed that nobody takes you seriously if you can't even use basic punctuation and spell-checking in your posts.

You should have noticed that you're doing the exact same things that got you banned some time ago. Please, get some manners and a sense of reality.

Part of getting people to give you help is being professional, and that means taking pride in what you do. Even if it's just a quick message you're typing on a forum, it counts towards your reputation.

I hesitate to say this here, but you need to be careful with mappers. They're a rare breed. Maps are the most important part of any game, really. Sure, if there's no code, there's no game, but a coded game is worthless without good levels to play on. Sounds and models you can deal with being sketchy; when the map is bad, the whole game is bad.

Mappers know this and tend to not take crap from anyone. :P /me ducks

thehalflifedude, thats kind of disappointing. I thought you where at least a decent or experienced mapper. Seriously, who would want to work with a team leader who isn't experienced and doesn't know what the hell there doing. People have lives and they have limited amount of time, they would easily rather work on things themselves than work on a mod team. And they are even less likely to work with an unexperienced leader. I cannot put express my feeling towards this issue in words. Do you think its all about getting your name in the credits?

How can you be angry at us?

FFS man, where not insulting you, nobody is, you just don't understand and its really annoying some people.

When we say "know body will take somebody seriously with no experience" we are telling you a general fact, and maybe even giving you a hint of what you need, experience, We are not saying you're not experienced, you never will be and nobody will ever take you seriously.

Whatever, take me off your credits list, I don't care, I don't want to be acknowledged. I want to create awesome content give/receive advice on content and offer help to anybody who works with the goldsouce engine.

My honest advice: Screw this mod, it won't work, its impossible and you don't understand that because you have NO EXPERIENCE. Either gain some experience by making multiplayer maps or small single player maps and listening to our advice and work through the ranks and earn respect on snarkpit and achieve world greatness (which is what I recommend) or get off all the fourms and find a new hobby (which is what I hope won't happen) because you can't go from start to advanced work straight away!!!!

We aren't insulting you, understand that.

It means where helping you.

Because its the truth.

....

You're not stupid, people do/will like you.


Is it so hard to have an open mind and consider our advice with out labeling it an insult?

Well than if I can't choose myself, than I suppose you're coder likes you and thats all you have. You have presented your self in a bad way (just like I did) on the forums, you need to understand that. You have to gain respect through being sensible on the forums and presenting awesome maps to people.

Have a look at my beginnings, look back at the history on this website about almost 2 years ago, I got flamed and everything. However, I am (I would like to think) good friends with those people and they where 100% right. I didn't see that back than but I do now, and soon, you will see it to if you stick around. Hence the people will like you, its a slash.

Anyways, I like you and you're coder probably likes you (as I said), I always have sympathy for people who have rough beginnings so if you can't understand what where saying, at least understand that I know whats its like for you and I have the upper hand.
