Work with us

Long-term partnerships for communities that run like studios. One-off commissions for everything else.

Partnerships

Studio standard, your server

Monarch works with DayZ server owners the way a studio works with a publisher: on a defined cadence, with named leads, and with enough context about your economy and player base that we do not need re-briefing every season. Whether you want a long-term partner or a single deliverable, the standard is the same.

We cover weapons, gear, scripts, GFX, imports, and server branding. One place, one team, one standard from first brief to live on your server.

Why retainer

Why retainer works

A studio relationship instead of a vendor queue.

  1. Sprint cadence

    Every two weeks your allocation resets. Work is planned in advance so you always know what ships before a wipe or patch window.

  2. Flexible disciplines

    Hours flex across scripts, GFX, imports, or weapons based on what your server needs that sprint. No rigid silos.

  3. Software included

    Retainer partners get access to Monarch Software tools at partner pricing or included outright depending on tier.

  4. Single roof

    One contact, one invoice, one team that already knows your server. No re-briefing a new vendor every season.

Scope

What we cover

Every retainer tier flexes hours across the disciplines your server needs each sprint.

Modding & assets

Weapons, gear, imports

Custom packs, configs, and workshop releases tuned to your ruleset and wipe calendar.

Software & tooling

One-off work

Not on a retainer?

Every deliverable in our commission catalogue is available as a standalone scope. Open a ticket with your brief and we will come back with a quote. Retainer partners receive priority scheduling; one-off clients are served between sprint windows.

The categories below cover the most common requests, but they are not the limit. If it involves code, design, content, or marketing, we can scope it.

Process

How it starts

From enquiry to delivery in four steps.

  1. Open a ticket

    Tell us your server, current setup, and what you need. We reply within 48 hours with questions or a proposed scope.

  2. Scoping call

    A short call to align on goals and timeline. We come prepared with options, not a blank slide deck.

  3. Proposal

    Written scope, sprint plan, deliverables, and pricing. No surprises after you sign.

  4. Build & ship

    Work runs on two-week sprints with check-ins. You review and approve before anything goes live on your server.

Audience

Who this is for

Server owners

Built for your ruleset

You run a defined economy, wipe rhythm, and player base. You need weapons, scripts, and gear that fit how the server actually works, not generic packs.

Typical: weapon platform, script set, season gear drop, branding pack.

Community studios

Production partner

You have a team, a brand, and a release calendar. You need Monarch as a production partner across multiple disciplines on a fixed schedule.

Typical: Partner or Studio retainer across mods, GFX, and imports.

Creators & brands

Campaign-ready assets

You want a custom skin pack, a trailer, branded server assets, or a one-off piece that fits a larger release or campaign.

Typical: standalone GFX, VFX promo, themed content pack.

Guidelines

Before you commission

A few things that keep projects on track.

Availability

Specific scripts, weapons, and assets may vary based on current availability. Open a ticket to confirm before committing to a scope.

Payment policy

Chargebacks are not permitted. If you experience any issue with a delivery, our team is available to resolve it directly before any dispute is raised.

Support

Our team is on hand if you have questions about usage, installation, or anything that needs a follow-up after delivery. Open a ticket and we will get back to you.

Ready when you are

Tell us your server. We will tell you what we can build.

Start with a brief, a ruleset, and a rough timeline. We scope honestly, price clearly, and only take the work we can deliver to the standard Monarch puts on its own servers.
