-Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:182824812
-Age: 14

-For how long have you played on our servers?: I joined MRP(My first server) on July 27/2021. So roughly A year and a Half. I had 12 Weeks on vtime_menu last Time I checked.

-Do you have a mic?: Yes

-Is this your first application for Mapper? If not, link previous ones: This is my first

-Have you received any bans?: Yes, I have received 2 bans on MRP, both of them being over 1 year ago. My most recent ban was 01/02/2022 For MRDM, this was a Stupid mistake on my behalf which I should’ve seen coming in that specific situation. My second Ban was For racism by falcon, this was a time where I was very influenced by the people around me and followed their bad decisions and behaviour. I believe that I have changed as a person on the community, this is reflected in the fact that my last warning was September last year, I have been an active player throughout that time.
-How confident are you with Hammer (Rate yourself 1-10 using rating guide): 6

-Do you have previous experience as a Mapper for GMod?:

No, I have been working with other mappers in the community such as Cope and Fr3ze to learn mapping as best as possible and learn the best techniques for optimisation and good brush work. I applied knowing that Fr3ze is now confident in my ability to map for the community and server. I decided to begin learning how to map to better the community and make it more fun for everyone.

- What source games have you mapped for and used the content of?:

CSGO
GMOD

-How many hours can you commit to Mapping per week?:

10-15

-Why do you want to be a Mapper? What can you help us with?:

I would like to help the community experience better content in their maps, in some examples like MRP the map has become stale and I would like to try to make changes to renew it for the players whilst working on a bigger project. Just making changes that will make the current maps feel more enjoyable again is what I wish to do. I believe with time and a lot of effort you can make these maps feel like a new experience for the older more veteran players who have experienced them before. I would like to go through and optimise all of the maps as best as possible using propper, even if others before have gone over it there may have been some small things they could’ve overlooked or missed
-Which server(s) on the CG Network do you play on and which ones would you most prefer to map for?l

I play on MRP and would like to mainly map for MRP

-Have you made & edited any map before? if so attach some images showcasing your map & edit

I recently Made an edit to highlands in bunker, I expanded out and Created a room where there wasn’t one, the created a Tunnel connecting one of the buildings in shacks to bunker, this allows for a 3rd path to enter within bunker creating less of a Chokehold point within the doors.

-List any ideas of new maps/map edits for CG that you would like to work on.
I would like to look into the removal of Dome on MRP. Originally, Dome was added to be a capture point between Outpost and Cabin the use of Dome as a capture point expired a long time ago in mid 2021 and I believe that it is now useless. Currently Dome is very rarely used for anything, I would like to Try and replace some with a bunker that goes just above the crimson blade hideout, so it doesn’t interfere with the peacetime. This could be a new capture point or just a cool addition to the map to try and refresh it to the players minds. (Screenshots of a developed idea bellow). I

Thanks for reading my application, Harry

Harry has been showing a very good development path so far regarding his hammer experience. From the start and to now, there are clear signs of improvement, which is also backed up by his motivation and will to learn from others.

Despite his young age, he is mature enough to understand that map development is no easy task, especially in an area where the majority of the maps that we use are at the edge of the source limits, and require extensive optimization to make sure that any update done to them do not go over those limits. Though from what I have seen and in my experience so far with him, I can say that if he continues to learn and work on his skills, he could become a good map developer where he could easily create maps on his own in the future, which is what Military RP needs anyway.

Eitherway, good luck on your application.

Looks good man, good luck!

 

[Foodeater]

From what I've read and seen here, you're very capable to perform to good standards, even if there's room for improvement you would have Freze and Cope to help out and coach you along the way, all that combined with your motivation to improve and learn would make you a great addition. Would be rad to work with you in the future. Good luck!
