Are there any sites or people out there that make plug-ins for source for money? I know maps wise you can go to dimension studios and have them make a map for you but im after the equivalent for source plug-ins. If you do the above can you get in contact please.

Technically, it is against the SDK license agreement to make mods for profit. I suppose paying for someone's time to code a plugin/mod might fall outside of that.

ZombieMod started out as a payed contract, now its public domain.
I also got paid for two seperate smaller plugins, one for headshots only on bots and extra HE nades n stuff and another private plugin.

PM me the details if you want and Ill see if I have time. As LDuke said, you are paying for a coders time not his work =)

Not trying to detract from this business, but most of the time the plugin you're looking for is already made or a plugin similar to it. Forunately Pawn is pretty easy to learn than a more powerful programming (e.g C++) language and plugins are open-source, so there are tons of coders out there, that you probably already know one personally or from your community/clan, or you could probably just ask someone as a favor, unless the plugin is really big (might even require more than one coder). Of course the main issue is whether or not they have time to do it. Most of the time people pay others for plugins because they need it ASAP. On the other hand, there's a lot less 3D artists...

/me points at the forum name.. "AlliedModders Forum Index > SourceMod > General"

Source doesn't have a pawn scripting system, unless you wrote it and didn't tell us?

Hehe...forgot this was Sourcemod not Amx Mod X

Maybe when Amx Mod X rolls around for Source?
