Content

First of all, I want to Express my gratitude to the new subscribers. I have the strength for new achievements, I'm getting closer to the amount that will help me fully engage in what I love.

I updated the  tiers a bit. They were created a long time ago, almost a year ago, I didn't expect anyone to subscribe to me at all.

You probably know that Patreon collects 8%, and I can only withdraw money through PayPal. But PayPal is the most stupid company I've come across. To transfer money to my personal account, they convert dollars into rubles, but divide it at some inadequate exchange rate. For example, $1 = ~75 rubles, and PayPal converts it at the rate of $1 = 71 rubles. As a result, I lose about $2-3 every month (200-250 rubles).

So I added similar tiers. It shows an amount of $1 dollar more. This is just an option for those who really want to support me, so that all conversions and commissions do not have an impact. I don't force anyone to subscribe to these  tiers , it's entirely your decision.

In short, I am glad to have any subscriber, but mainly because of PayPal I am losing a significant amount. Perhaps I need to open an account in dollars and convert it into my currency already at the bank, and not trust this operation to paypal =)

I also tried to update the page title so that it better reflects the content that I create and that you get for your support. I'm not a photoshop God, but something worked out )

:) so my little contribution help you? I glad to know that, and i hope to see more of your works on the future, and maybe this be free on the workshop, but thanks a lot for make the bars of gta, youre awesome mark.

I would be happy to upload this content to the workshop, but I think it would be very wrong. For example, someone spent money to help create this content, and someone just took it and got it for free, even if it will be for example in a month or two. I try to advertise the existence of my Patreon as much as possible. I have more than 3000 subscribers on Steam, but I refused the workshop and all they see is videos or art that I upload. It seems that the latest videos showing apartments and arcades have brought me even more subscribers, which I am very happy about.

:) it's ok mark, and don't worry, After seeing how blender works, the problems to make a simple scene in both gmod and sfm and even the time it takes, I can say because you didn't even like having so little support, when I read the message I felt guilty, but now I do I can support you as long as I can, your maps are amazing and the models too, I don't think there is another with this quality. It's not flattery, it's my perspective on how good you are. And although I can't create models and characters, I'm happy to help someone so skilled that can do it. i hope you keep doing your works, and i hope someday i can inspire you on one XD.

By the way, I have been working in 3ds max since 2010. Although blender is better in some aspects, I simply won't be able to switch to it, I have a bunch of scripts and plugins familiar to me, and most of them are not for blender, and I prefer when everything is in one place, and not import-export from one editor to another. Now I have switched to 3ds max 2020, they helped me with porting the plug-in for gta v models, I am very glad about this fact, I am tired of old versions. Previously, the maximum supported version was 2016.

quite understandable, even though I have 12 of RAM since I prefer to use GMOD to SFM it is surprising to me that the program is usually limited to 2, and more other problems either to place characters or use x amount of addons I would like it to be improved so that the performance was not so disastrous on some occasions, because I work I have more than 154 GB only in gmod, no idea in sfm at the moment, thanks to how the program is currently I think I could try to do "loadouts" to work . In the end, like another madman, I would like to see those programs merged, but maybe it would be asking too much, but when one is made by facepunch and the other was given free by valve using the 2007 tf2. And wow, more than 10 years ... well, I have a long way to go, because if I only made images and some small animations, I wonder what will happen if I continue on this path for another 4 years or more.
