Ideas and helpers?
« on: July 16, 2016, 05:00:49 PM »
Hello, I have been working with gmod for a while now. Decided to quit, came back but now I don't really play I just make nice code. I thought wouldn't it be more fun to make more group projects share knowledge and stuff like that?

So my question to the Garrysmod dev community is, would any one out there like to work on some addons together? I have many ideas just not enough motivation to code things on my own.

Depends. I have commitments myself so I don't have a huge amount of time daily to work on it. The same situation I'm in, you're in. I haven't played Gmod for about a month or two, but I could work on some stuff.

Keep in mind I'm not "professional" level, but I can hold my own.

For me, it'd depend on the type of project.
I have been looking for something productive to do, though. Summer's getting that sort of stale taste to it with little to do, even after I re-opened my server.

I'm in the same boat. After 2000 hours I guess you'll get bored of most things.

I might be interested in a project, but I can't promise anything as I easily lose interest unfortunately.

What ideas did you have in mind?

This seems to be true for many programmers, myself included.

Sticky, open source Pylons, or share where you've got the code.
That as a gamemode would ROCK.

Are you referring to UDodge, JamminR?

Yeah Megiddo.
I forgot we called it that.
Out there anywhere?
THAT I think should be turned into gamemode with dedicated maze running maps, adjustable pylons, etc.

That version was written for GM9... So no, it will not work. Pretty sure I have a GM10 version somewhere though. I think we had intended to make it a game mode at some point, and then forgot about it. :P

I'm bored so I'm going to work on porting UDodge to Garry's Mod 13, if that's alright with you Megiddo. Since it doesn't have a license, which one would you like me to use (if you have a preference)?

This is the latest version -- https://www.dropbox.com/sh/413tvc9nkjl4kw0/AAAAN6MWVjeCPuIR0Xpil7fja?dl=0

Same license as ULib.

Attached for easier access and in the event that it gets removed from the dropbox. (I've seen many dropbox links die.)



Also I had the idea of making a sort of mixed gamemode that's Sandbox, TTT, and DarkRP all in one. I think that would be fun (and not too hard) to make.
