Well the idea is I'm making a mod for Minecraft 1.6.2 that changes how iron and gold ore work! The plan is when you break these two blocks it gives you exp AND rather than the block gives you iron / gold chunks, to proceed you smelt these and get ingots! It adds a nice bit of EXP To your game!

Fill this out and I'll get back to you

Age: 13 Minimum.
Steam: Communication.
Experience: So I can see if you're good.
Why I should be a coder: Convince me your dedicated enough to do this task!
Smilies: Pick one!

I can certainly understand if some coder is bored and just looking for something to do. That person might offer to write mods for you for free.

But an interesting trend is, the better a coder's programming skills, the less likely that coder is to be bored and have huge amounts of free time. If you want a skilled programmer to make a mod for you, you might have to do a little work convincing him/her to spend precious free time on your project instead of his/her own project.

It's not really about greed or money. It's about how people want to spend their time.

My only point was, it is a bit unrealistic to expect someone to give you code without any kind of exchange in return. It doesn't have to be money. You could trade favors, etc. But the short version is, programming takes skill and hard work. It takes MUCH more work to code and implement a feature than it does to design the feature on paper. You might have a hard time recruiting a skilled programmer if you offer nothing in return for their work.

money is kinda greedy, although i have guy i asked to make plugins for me a while back, (about a year ago) i offered pay but he never accepted, but we chat daily i help him with testing plugins and i had a free copy of bioshock infinite i gave him,
people that ask for stuff dont always get what they want,whereas by my friend not wanting anything he feels better about himself i willingly give him thinks when i can and help in other ways..

sometimes greed can be peoples downfall

Just have links to YouTube/planet minecraft, shout outs on videos, etc. Promote them, and that's usually what people will accept, just so long as more people look at their work because of what they've done for you. And then you have those who want money. If you are broke, oh well. They don't need to code for you. There is always someone else.

Actually, it's not a half bad mod idea. Plus, kinda easy. But as of 1.6.2 and all the changes to forge/modloader. I have no idea how to. I could have thrown that together in an hour or so back in 1.5.2. But now it's different.

You know coding takes a LOT of time and effort what makes you think that someone will make a mod for nothing?

What incentive do we have to write code for you?
