So yeah I've been looking for a trustworthy scripter for over 2 months. Nobody respond back. Is it me? What am I doing or saying wrong. I got great unique games I'm working on and need some help. I got money to pay you for your hard work. I'm a gamer amd would to see my game ideas produced. I just don't have the time to sit and learn Lua. I might have to end up doing it. Anyway I'm still looking for ppl to script me some stuff or interested in long term partnership. Hit me up. Sorry I rather not put my ideas out there. Thanx looking forward to hearing from ya

I am a trustworthy scripter, I've been or all have been scammed recently, so they ask for money first like I do.

Most people if not all are not interested in long-term recruitment with someone who won't do anything but be the infamous "idea person".

No one needs an idea person, everyone has their own ideas, and if you're paying a percentage of profits less than 50% to them for doing all the work then they're obviously going to say no.

I am an old player, recently returning, i used to do paid scripting.

I did a few small user interface jobs, usually 0.8k - 1.2k
a few game fixes, usually 1k - 2k
a few full game scripting, usually 3-5k
and 1 major game ressurection, which payed 12k.

all depending on size of project

I am not too sure on my confidence as a scripter at the moment, i have been learning other programming languages in the past 2 years and well, rbx.lua is known to change very often.

But if you're looking for a scripter and your project has no complicated security or networking stuff then, i can take a look :P


Now i don't charge upfront, i will complete the project, and you wont have access to it while i'm working on it.
Once i have finished, you will be able to preview it before sending payment.
I have no interest in scamming people, i gain nothing from doing so with this method.

And for your thread i guess.

You wont find decent scripters unless you:

1) Specify your price range, will you be paying in robux? will you be paying in limited items? how much will you be maximum willing to pay? Can you prove you CAN pay. This way the scripter knows you are legit and able to pay when the project is completed.

2) Specify the type of project, what skills might be needed, does it require animation? does it require multiserver leaderboards i.e. networking? Does it require heavy physics such as realistic bullet mechanics? etc. This way the scripter knows if they will be able to complete the task.

3) Show some of your work or your idea so that people know that you are seriously looking for a scripter. If you are looking for an experienced scripter for script your game and you haven't even build anything - you're going to get shot down.

4) Have a good reputation. If you are a known scammer or general jerk to work with, it spreads pretty quickly and scripters will refuse to work with you.

I'm new to roblox so I'm building up my reputation. No I'm not gonna take 50% if you're doing all the work but the scam worry goes both ways. I can give you 50% before and rest after or we can discuss it. We can also talk about how you want to be paid. I want you to be comfortable but I also gotta watch my back. I own my own business so I understand your concern. As far as putting my ideas out there, I don't think it'll be smart. I don't want ppl taking my ideas and making it before me. Long-term or short term, is up to you. I want you to be comfortable. We will produce beter result and more successful in a happy healthy partnership. Looking forward to hearing from you

Realistically, no one is going to steal your idea. 99% of the time, good games don't make it to the front page because the idea does not conform to the success formula (tycoon etc >.>)

Is it possible with roblox physic to script and give car jump, turn, and air twist capability? The player can either morph or sit in the car. I just need the player to be able to control the car like they would their character.

I was making a nice RPG with a scripter for a bit, and he seemed trust worthy, but then he just quit on me, and never said anything.
