BluShell is looking for a mapper! - Developers

[img]http://i.imgur.com/JRZYPPT.png[/img] [url]http://blushell.net/[/url] BluShell Gaming is a community made by the former staff of two of the more popular Gmod communities back in the day, Darkland Servers and Bolt Action Walrus, and the once-great Minecraft community, Sogotopia. BluShell is a Minecraft and Gmod community. We currently host two unique gamemodes for Gmod: Puzzles, and the famous Fortwars. In the summer of 2013 we began development of a new gamemode, Dominion. This gamemode is based on point captures and deathmatch but features an in-depth weapons and armor system we've created from scratch. Players are also able to form into gangs in order to share the wealth while having greater firepower. Unfortunately due to the semesters starting at the end of the summer, development was halted as the gamemode neared completion. After getting things in order, we're picking it back up again (though it is almost finished) and we need help! Our former mapper has other commitments now, though he did start on the base of the city. The vmf of the current map will be provided. The main things we're looking for an a mapper are: • Outstanding knowledge with Hammer and level designing in the Source Engine • The ability to form and design creative ideas • The ability to map properly and efficiently If you fit the criteria and are interested in taking up the job, send me a PM on Facepunch. Please actually explain and prove that you're fit for the position. We won't consider you if you don't have any past work to show. (It should also be noted that without our old mapper, the Dominion development team consists of only coders and a modeler that is usually busy. This means that you most likely won’t get custom models unless you can model yourself or you can recruit a modeler to join our team. ) Here are screenshots of the map in its current state: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/eGxCclK.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/IIZeGwc.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/aCVZKIO.jpg[/IMG]

Good luck with your search sounds like an interesting gamemode.

Perhaps you should post what you are going to offer the mapper? Money? Admin? Nothing at all?

We're still looking for a mapper. I've been contacted by many but unfortunately when I responded to their messages I didn't get a single reply back. I've also managed to recruit a modeler. The only thing we're offering is developer status in the server. As of right now I can't promise any pay. None of the many BluShell developers get paid as we all work as a hobby. This may change depending on how successful Dominion becomes.

I remember darklands roleplay, that was fun.

What is the city's setting?

[QUOTE=KnightVista;43365666]I remember darklands roleplay, that was fun.[/QUOTE] We actually still have the files for the SEOW, which is Darkland's RP gamemode. We were planning on hosting a server for the gamemode at one point once we fixed it to work with Gmod 13, but I think that plan died because of the fact that we probably wouldn't get many players. [QUOTE=mdeceiver79;43366891]What is the city's setting?[/QUOTE] I want decision to leave that mostly to the mapper. I'll probably put my input on how it should be though whenever I do find a mapper.

[QUOTE=Dromlexer;43382316]You probably leave it to the community too, they need a environment which is comfortable for them to play on.[/QUOTE] I don't have a playerbase since this is a new gamemode.

[QUOTE=Banhfunbags;43382900]I don't have a playerbase since this is a new gamemode.[/QUOTE] Fair enough, but what Dromlexer means is you could ask the BluShell community for there ideas of what they would to see in the map..

[QUOTE=Hawx;43383238]Fair enough, but what Dromlexer means is you could ask the BluShell community for there ideas of what they would to see in the map..[/QUOTE] I don't think that's a good idea. I'm trying to cater to completely different players with Dominion. I don't expect any of the active Puzzles and Fortwars players to be playing Dominion.

Think about what made the community go "bang" in the first place
