I've already had people offer to do both for free, which speaks volumes about the ArmA community. Thanks for all the help guys! :D

^ this ---------- Post added at 13:28 ---------- Previous post was at 13:26 ---------- This too. I seriously don't see how offering money creates a slope to all paid content. If I wasn't looking for a deadline and quality margin, I'd just ask the community if they could lend a hand with it. I'm looking for both, and feel that offering the content creator a monetary reward for this is the appropriate thing to do, especially considering that I have a margin of expectation. ---------- Post added at 13:35 ---------- Previous post was at 13:28 ---------- This looks REALLY good man, like, wow. Can't wait to see what the finished product looks like. :)

Very nice! The sound effect is alright, but it does sound recorded. The nuke looks awesome though, the shock wave and improved damaging is very impressive!

It's simply an incentive to work. I don't think their time is worth 20$, because I couldn't possibly know how much time it would take. Neo claims he made that nuke (in it's current state) in under an hour. So yeah.

Color me impressed. If you can get it working with sound, I"ll drop 20 dollars your way. And hell yeah, of course you can upload it to the public. it's your mod. I'm very impresed! ---------- Post added at 04:41 ---------- Previous post was at 04:34 ---------- Where do you think I'm sending the money, dubai? Of course it goes to the modder who put in the work to get the thing functioning. lol

:I I'm not giving an hourly value to this, nor would I consider it a career/living pay. To say that I'm implying modders deserve 1.80/hr isn't expressing my intent correctly. Rather than letting my idea sit to rot in the 4,000 page addon request topic, and hope and pray that someone decides to pick it up, I'm offering monetary compensation to speed up the process. If taking time to make the mod seems not worth it, or would be debilitating to your real life, by no means should the money involved intimidate you to participate, and i don't suggest you do so if you're not interested. I don't intend to make the mod private, nor do I intend to under-pay the modders. I havn't contacted someone personally because I don't know anybody personally. ---------- Post added at 23:07 ---------- Previous post was at 23:05 ---------- Gonna be honest, I severely doubt that a pay incentive to produce a mod sooner and faster than most is the start of a slippery slope to ad.fly and charged aircraft like X-Plane.

That's the intent though? I'm paying the modder to do the job quick, and extra carefully? I'd rather state my intentions outright than be cryptic. ---------- Post added at 16:20 ---------- Previous post was at 16:18 ---------- Mounting the nuke isn't many hours of work, I understand what has to be done and it's very basic, I just don't have the skillset/experience to do it. ---------- Post added at 16:22 ---------- Previous post was at 16:20 ---------- Yeah, I highballed the hell out of the first one, and lowballed the hell out of the second. Figure it evens out if you take both. :P I've got a guy interested in the work, but I'm not closing this topic until he accepts it.

Anybody interested? I'll post if the jobs become unavailable

lol ty now all i need is someone to actually bite on this. XD

I don't intend to hold onto it forever, no. In a perfect world, I'd like to hold onto it until after my event is over, but I understand the community spirit and don't intend for me to have "exclusive rights" to these mods. I'm just interested in getting them made, and money is a good motivator. I know the nuke isn't difficult at all, I think I high-balled that one, actually. But I don't even know if the civ switcher is possible, it seems plausible, but I don't know. The money is, imo, just to motivate someone to actually do these, and do them well, within a deadline. It makes no difference to me if anybody else has them. lol Essentially, the only reason I want to pay is because I expect quality work, and I expect it within a deadline. I think the community does deserve these mods once they're finished.

Okay, I need a few mods made. I'll post each one with a price tag, RSVP with a PM if you're interested in taking the job. You can 'reserve' it, if you'd like, and I'll update the topic, but I won't pay until I have a finished product in-hand. Name:Zeus Nuke Support Required Materials:http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?170602-ArmA-III-Nuke-Script-Port-from-ArmA-II Required Format:Packaged Addon Description:A support for zeus, listed under the supports category, which will cause the designated script to activate at the targeted location. Any missile/rocket effects are bonus. Extra Requests:Please replace the nuke sound with something better (I have a couple files in mind, but if you know one that'd be great too) Price Tag:20$ Name:Civillian/Infantry Switcher Required Materials:N/A Required Format:Packaged Addon Description:A player-side scroll menu option which allows the player to turn into a civillian. The player will be forced to drop all equipment on person to do so. When a civillian, any past formed AI relationships will remain (IE: If a soldier saw him when he was still a soldier, the solder will kill him.) but new relationships will be formed based on the players current status (IE: if a soldier sees him as a civillian, but never as an opfor, the soldier will not engage) Extra Requests:If possible, also make the civillians unable to board non-civillian vehicles. Price Tag:30$ I'm negotiable on the prices, if you think this is too meager tell me why, and I might pay more. Thanks! MODS: I didn't see anything against this in the rules, but if it is against the rules, please delete this topic. If it isn't against the rules, please edit this topic and remove the red text. Thanks! -------------------------------------------------- In case it's unclear: I am NOT asking to purchase a mod. I am offering a cash incentive to whomever decides to build the mod. The mod is still, and always will be, the creative property of the person who made it, whom can choose to upload it for everyone for free, or not.

Could somebody mount a script to a support for zeus? Specifically, this nuke script. http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?170602-ArmA-III-Nuke-Script-Port-from-ArmA-II Could you please replace the nuke sound with something a bit better (I'll find it, if you accept the job), and package it into an addon? I'd love to see it as a missile strike, or something. I need it for an upcoming event, and can offer small monetary reciprocation if that'll motivate you. I'm talking small though (10-15 bucks?), this doesn't seem to be a complicated task AFAIK, I just don't have the skill to do it.
