Lightmare Studio is an indie dev studio located in Bordeaux, France, founded by four bearded geeks, formerly working in the video game industry and now ready to take over the world! (as well as some other planets). We try to focus on a few simple things: community, independence and creativity. Through these objectives, we've made concrete choices: - Build tools that will allow community-created content. If the players like our game, and if they want to express their creativity through it, we would be more than pleased to help them do so. - Work with as much transparency as we can, through our devblog or any other media. - Communicate with our community and take their feedbacks into account to improve our games. - Be independent, working with homebrew game engine and tools. - Create our own universes. - Favor versatility. We won't be 100% casual or gamer, as we play and like games of both styles.

Hi, I need someone who is familiar with the tools you use to make Counter Strike Global Offensive mods.
Valve says that there are specific programming knowledge you need to use.

The mod I demand developed, seems kinda simple. In a game, there are these things called 'props'. A prop is an item, like a tree, a chair, a wooden fence, you name them. What I wanna do is simply make everyone on the same server able to spawn the stock props of the game. This mod will therefor need to be a server side mod, and NOT a client side mod.
So what is the intention of my mod? I wanna make a server where you can build stuff, it's that simple. The possibilities are only limited by a player's fantasy and own ability to build.
I will create the map that the mod needs to be played on, as the map is rather simple and only needs to be nothing but a big empty space, where people can build.
Details and features:
Anyone can save whatever they build on the server. The save feature will save all the props that he/she has spawned.
Rotating a prop X,Y,Z. I want everyone to be able to rotate their props. XYZ means that it can be rotated in 3 ways. 1: imagine that you have a wall standing upright. Then you can lay it down. 2: the same wall is upright, rotating it this way will tilt the wall sideways. 3: this will rotate it horizontally, or in other words, make it spin around itself.
I don't want you to create an animation of a wall spinning, you can simply just adjust the way the wall is pointing and such stuff.
Moving a prop up, down and sideways. Simple as that, I want to be able to move my prop, either up, down or sideways.
The save feature will be possible via Steam IDs. I want 10 saves available per steam id.
I would also like to add a feature that makes you rotate and move the props in various ranges. So for example, you can choose to move a prop 1 meter, or 2 centimeters. We will go more into detail with that as we begin the project.
Here is a little video of the mod that I want to replicate, which was made in the previous CS title, called CS:Source.
Youtube.com Look at the menu he has to the left. When you click for example '3' for the 'move' option, you would go into the move menu, where you have the ranges that you move your props in. The numbers next to the features are the current range settings of the features.
Another feature to add is transferring a save to another Steam ID. With this, you can give other players' your saves. I will use that for a market place later on.
I know that everything seems a little blurry, and it is. Therefor I expect to work together and communicate with you closely on the project, so we create this TOGETHER!
Bid on the project now, and let's create the first ever sandbox mod in Counter Strike Global Offensive, for everyone to enjoy and have a good time with!
Btw, I need this mod to be available for online servers.
I prefer applicants who have actual knowledge with the game, or play it themselves.
Tell me why I should pick you, along with a portfolio of previous projects you've participated in. My email is Niklas@texteriouz.com
