It's time for another release! Unfortunately, that good old loss of all hard drive files situation struck again (will I ever learn how to back-up?), so some major features like Trash Dash, drinking, and Loan Sharks are NOT any longer in this release, sorry guys. The last couple of weeks have been a super busy time full of restoring and recreating a large portion of what was lost, as well as adding extra and finishing everything up, but it's finally done! IN THIS RELEASE: Introducing the INSTALLER. No longer are the ways of tricky manual installation! This bad boy conveniently puts the entire modification at your hands in just a few clicks. There are three methods of installation all explained for you: FULL. STANDARD. ADVANCED. Standard providing the entire base of the mod with the exception of map/script removals (examples: stadium + their missions). Full providing the *full* / more accurate experience; it removes the stadium, North Beach and the missions associated. This does not affect the ability to achieve 100%. Advanced providing all the extra stuff! This installation set provides you with the ability to choose from the different development radars & players, plus all the aesthetically to your opinion worse, better, and not-so-stable features. How does the installer work? Firstly, the installer looks out for a gta-vc.exe (meaning, an installed copy), otherwise it will NOT INSTALL. This is NOT to be dumped into a random folder, otherwise it won't work as intended. Secondly, STEAM COPIES ARE SUPPORTED. The installer comes with its own downgrader, courtesy of @ThirteenAG, which during installation injects itself into your game to support the modification. Thirdly, during installation the installer dumps the gta3.img files into a TEMP folder & uses Fastman's IMG Console via script to automatically inject all these files into your IMG. So be careful, any already installed mods may be overwritten! Forthly, the TEMP folder the installer makes for adding/replacing files in gta3.img unfortunately does NOT get deleted, either delete it or take it as opportunity to use it for easy access to any files you may want! Finally, depending on your Advanced choices, at the end of installation Hackman's SFX Manager will boot up to automatically inject GTA3 sounds into sfx.SDT before closing and ending installation. Also introducing the UPDATER. This is a very simple updater, nothing fancy! There are no automated alerts or anything, this is all simply a manual check on your part. Just for convenience/laziness should you not want to check the topic! Click the Check for Updates button and it will alert you to whether there is one. If there is, at your choice it will download the latest version for you! SCREENSHOTS This is not much of a major visual update, so there's not much to show. Map-wise this version mostly includes new minor map changes, some improvements over old edits, and fixing up a few things of what were missing. For new features however, there's a few things to showcase: The HUD has now been recreated by @Fire_Head! Featuring all the previous changes like the blue, pink & purple text and icons in the top right, the yellow timer, red circle crosshair, bolder GTA3 rampage colours, blue objective markers, auto-aiming M60 and different weapon pickup colours, but now with the new additions of a smaller ammo count, green objective text and no glow on adrenaline/health/rampage pickups to make it really feel nice and finished. Also included are things such as the All Cars are Helicopters cheat (activated by WEDONTNEEDROADS), with a VCB.asi merging all previously separate ASIs together. No more scripts folder bloating! BETA VEHICLES. Up to *39* of them! All greatly and painstakingly recreated by @Son Of Big Boss. These vehicles are the most accurate models you're gonna get, especially with their beta carcols and PS2 reflections these bad boys spice up the world like nothing else. You can keep track of any and all new beta vehicles right in his topic here. There is now a GTA3 Assets pack found under Advanced Installation, featuring GTA3 weapons (Grenade, Rocket Launcher, Spaz Shotgun, Uzi) & GTA3 sounds (sports car doors, vehicle collisions & footsteps) with help from @Matt1010 & a GTA3 Cabbie with further optional variants with help from @Son Of Big Boss. There are now what is nearly the last of the remaining beta pedestrians finished, these are a few of them, others not shown are HFOST & BMYPI, alternates for BMYRI & WMYRI, with revisions to WFYG1 & WMYRI. As shown in the last progress post, places like Washington's Well Stacked Pizza & the Inside Track Betting store both have people behind their counters, with the pizza store offering health regen & a side-mission like the rest. CHECKLIST See all the new stuffs in this release below! This is only a (decently sized) minor release, so unfortunately it isn't much, but hopefully it's enough for now! Check out the updated FULL checklist here: DOWNLOAD CREDITS Huge thanks and shout-outs to: @Dominik_ for his big efforts in helping out with packing in a whole bunch of script changes & fixes, @Son Of Big Boss for his insanely awesome work on his pack of beta vehicle creations (which you can find HERE), @Fire_Head for his great work on the new HUD and super useful extra scripts like the All Cars Are Helis cheat restoration, allowing MC Tommy to appear in cutscenes, and more. @Dominik_ / @Sergiu / @Mr. Jago / @Gamerjman19 for testing out the mod prior to release to ensure it's the most stable yet and also for giving loads of feedback to several parts of development. Extra thanks to @Ash_735, @Matt1010, @Sergeanur & @ermaccer for helping out & providing some extra features in the mod & @The Hero for letting me host the modification on his server! Also thanks to all of you for your continued support! All names can be found tagged next to their contributions in the checklist. SIGN-OFF This modification has required a LOT of time, research and dedication over the years. Motivation dies, life gets busy, and it feels all the more difficult to come back to. So if any of you appreciate the amount of work put in to developing this and are feeling SUPER generous, feel free to help 'buy me a coffee' or something as that extra bit of thanks and show of support!: paypal.me/kalvingfx Have fun!

Forget the morality issues, running a prostitution or a human trafficking ring are just sh*t ideas in my opinion.

Everyone talking about Mile High Club and the Mall The real question is - will this be the update that finally opens those two iconic locations? The mine could give us some cowboys outfits from RDR (and maybe back to the future 3 easter egg) Fort Zancudo elevator? Clearly the underground facility where they created the FZ ufo prototype. But that would probably be in the final update for gtao

Ever since i played GTA i wanted the houses on the beach nearby Del Perro. OR this little beauty: Mansions / Big houses needs to be a thing. It's been speculated to death, but it's still fun to talk about.

Bruh where have you been for the last 15 years? Cause I will gladly join you. The media "cares" much more than they did back in 2005. Creating fake outrage and race baiting is their favorite way of getting views nowadays. If they find a single offended person on twitter, they'll write an article about it. Cancel Culture is a thing after all. People get fired for jokes they made over 20 years ago. Golden girls episode gets pulled from the air cause apparently mud masks = black face. Same thing happened to the best episode of Community cause it had a dark elf and "fat shaming" . Even D&D cards are getting banned case they had "dark creatures". A kids cartoon with a police dog gets canceled because its "police propaganda". We living in clowns world and R* is well aware of that. If everyone starts writing about canceling gtao I'm sure R*s shareholders wouldn't not be happy about it.

Dropped 12 gold on the Coachella outfit plus 6 on the headband. Definitely worth it

Goddamn, this again. The torture mission was handled by Trevor, probably the most insane person in the game, and the fact that only he could handle that job is a reflection of his character, not to progress the story. They aren't gonna have us owning humans, let alone it be a viable form of money.

All I want is a Midnight Club update that focuses on customization/street racing.

Actually this mod was for people on discord server only. but since Spartan_112 allowed me to post it here, So enjoy... Willard Faction Stock and Improved Original models By Spartan, edited by me (full credit are on Readme) gonna post it soon on the OP when I finished the OP renovation. (You might see some broken link or missing image on the OP!)

Hi all! A couple of weeks ago we made a survey on whether our users would like to see lazy loading behaviour on GTAForums or not, which would make videos and images in topics load only as you scroll, and not all at once, to avoid potential performance issues or lag. We asked users whether they experienced any lag or slowness in topics with lots of images and video, and asked whether they would like to see lazy loading on the forums, or not, along with how often they browse video/image topics and what device they browse from. Fact/Results Sheet (sample size: 123 responses) 75.6% of members who responded browse GTAF from their PC's, whereas 24.4% browse from their mobile phones. Conversely, most guests in our forum browse from mobile devices, as such as the Internet nowadays; 28.9% of members who responded said they looked at video and pictures topics relatively often (4), using a scale from 1 to 5, along with 27.3% who looked at them a little less frequently (3). We asked members whether they experienced any lag in a specific topic with images (that we thought could apply to any other topic with lots of images), and 42.3% responded No, there is just a little temporary lag. The same percentage responded No, it is fully smooth. 13% said it was slow to scroll through whereas the rest, a small minority, said their device froze. We asked members then about a video topic. 47.2% of members responded No, there was just a little temporary lag, and 31.7% responded No, it is fully smooth. 17.9% of people responded Yes, it is slow to scroll through, unsurprisingly, as videos are generally more demanding than images to load. When asked about lazy loading and whether members would like it enabled or not, 57.7% responded Yes and 42.3% responded No. Verdict A lot of members had some reservations about lazy loading, as they wished there would be an option to enable it, or not, depending on their preference. Unfortunately, Invision Power Board does not allow this and the option applies to all posts, and every member group, forced to either on, or off. The amount of members who replied that the topics were browseable normally or just with temporary lag were also the majority, which contradicted our original thought that embeds were likely an issue for many people around these forums due to them browsing on mobile devices or weaker laptops (and not always gaming PC's). Given some of the comments (like making it toggleable) and images and videos in topics not being such a huge issue as we thought they were, despite most people voting Yes for lazy loading, we decided to not enable lazy loading as there is no flexibility to the function, and it seems to us from the survey that browsing topics with images and videos is not an extremely large problem as once thought. This does NOT mean we can't reverse this decision in the future if we see fit or needed, depending on feedback. We'd like to thank everyone who took some time to reply to the survey, and we'd also like to thank those who left additional comments, even those that had nothing to do with the issue at hand. Unfortunately we are running third party forum software, and out flexibility with a lot of issues is not as much as you'd think, without hacking the heck out of the forum software - and that has gone horribly wrong for us in the past. I will be addressing some of the comments below, however: Additional Comments (expand spoiler to read) Again, thanks everyone for participating!

This thread is like groundhogs day... we used to have some awesome members here who would offer worthwhile speculation. This forum is a shadow of its former self lol. Same sh*tty meme ideas and concepts keep popping up (human trafficking... LOL!). And then essays on why there will definitely be a business because we are definitely getting a radio station... lol wut? Neither have been mentioned by any official sources. sh*tty morgue hasn't been mentioned my R* even once. Cool your jets and try not to repost the same stuff every single week, or the thread will remain low quality.

Dont be so sure of yourself. We live in a time with +50 genders. If Rockstar actually made an update like that, surely 50% of those people will be pissed off for no reason. People just like to push their own personal agenda towards others to make themselfs feel special. Doesn't matter what update R* will push, they will always piss some people off no matter the context or theme.

Ofc its possible, the code is already in the game. You forgot you can call a taxi and it drives you to the waypoint? Same thing. Its just a filter that replaces the word "l e a k". Probably a joke so people stop spreading those fake ass reddit "leakz" I can see both sides of this discussion but saying "like it or not, thats part of the underground economy in real life" is a reallly lame argument. "Like it or not, child pr0n is part of the underground economy in real life". So does it mean R* will be willing to add Epsteins island or a pizzeria with a sex dungeon underneath it? Or let you start a grooming gang? Ofc not. We living in different times. Back in the day the internet wasn't filled by professional victims and PC babies who only wait for another opportunity to be offended about something. There's no way that R* would take that risk only for you to use people as cargo crates lol. Bounty missions are basically the same thing as human trafficking, just without all the unnecessary controversies. And if they did added human trafficking to the game, we would be saving people instead of participating in it. Escort missions would probably be fine but that sounds boring AF. Good for story mode, but not something that would work as a whole theme for gtao. Exactly. Theres nothing more you could do with a theme like that. Its just "go from A to B and back" / "go from A to B and beat the guy who didn't want to pay" / "chase the guy who kidnapped the girl". Thats literally it, 3 missions at best. Even Taxi missions have way more potential than this. People who keep pitching this are the same 14y old kids who go the the strip club in gtao so they can JO to some virtual tits. Yeah, people quickly forget that the whole point of that torture mission was to show us that the people we are working for are the real bad guys. Trevor in the end saves that guy instead of killing him, it makes us sympathies with Trevor. It shows he wasn't a soulless monster after all. Well they do give people the things they want, just not the things that you personally want. Every dlc had something from wishlist topics. And there was a time when people kept begging for more contact missions.

Never,I mean yeah never,to expect these freeloaders to actually fix anything,folks. These stuff as I mentioned eariler this year,been happening since that Moonshiner Disaster pack,or maybe before that update came out.They say it has been fixed recently,oh really? Oh so some props that have been missing for 8 months can finally make their way to the "beautiful,vivid world again",well this is great! So I wasted some time to check these out myself,here is the shot: Notice the road sign is fading out when you approaching.Nice little warm up that lasts for 8 months,but no,nobody like this. And this mayor has been stucked here for 7-8 months too whenever he spawns,great job! Man I can't interact with this dude for 8 months WTF? And how can I forget these lovely floating poos? And these ugly props always doiing a job of making you wanna puke too!Bingos! (Seriously,regarding floating props or not,these models are ugly as f*ck,I can't help wonder what are their prop artists thinking when they making such low quality stuff.And what worse,they even don't know how to put these objects correctly. ) So,how can you shamelessly claiming "Oh,these stuff have been fixed!"??? And yes,all of these bugs u guys mentioned above are true,well at least can count on my machine for these sh*t:The pouring animation of gang members is buggy,corpses spawning is really noticable when you approaching them.I give my game all-max graphics settings except for tree tessellation and reflection quality,so I can say its not my fault for their stupidity if anyone want to defend these sh*ts.I still haven't show you a shadow bug I encounted countless times in camp,that one I'm sure is for computer exclusively.These props bugs is applied all platforms since I encountered these stuff on both my pc and xbox

I've updated https://rdodlc.xyz/files/naturalist/update/patch/ui/item_textures so that all the catalogue items now display with the background that is similar to the catalogue in game. For example: https://rdodlc.xyz/files/naturalist/update/patch/ui/item_textures/ui_weapon_pistol_m1899/#lg=1&slide=0 I'll also stuck them in extra folder of their own so you can slideshow through them, obviously they all have the same name so are appended (I think that's the right word) with a number: https://rdodlc.xyz/files/naturalist/update/patch/ui/item_textures_all/

Hit rank 100 today, feels good

If we're on the topic of QoL fixes I want to be able to drive my personal car to my personal aircraft without one or the other despawning, and be able to park a car in my hangar like the nightclub service entrance.

In an attempt to save the thread from a cleanup crew; People must be allowed to disagree and be left alone. For example, I disagree we should dedicate posts to this thread about real world laws, crimes and the consequences of intersectionality and instead keep to discussing what we would and wouldn't like to see in the next 2 already confirmed yet vague updates for GTA Online.

All I want is the new Midnight club, fixed that for you.

I get the distinct feeling that it’s a single person who has for years been pushing this ‘human trafficking and prostitution business’ idea, and that he has a fetish for women being treated like chattel. And he pushes for it so hard because he gets his rocks off to the idea of being able to own and sell women and is desperate for R* to feed his fantasy.

Stay on topic please.

My disc copy gone for forever, I won't miss it anymore. Good bye RDR2 story mode. ( I just wanna remember the good old days when this game finally came out without online mode and down-to-earth nerfed graphics and story mode nerfs.) RIP RDR 2 26th october 2018.

If for some reason we'd get pizza delivery jobs and could own Burger Shot, could we AT THE VERY LEAST be able to eat pizza and burgers? I think our characters are tired of eating nothing but snacks, soda and beer. Oh, and champagne.

It's been a while

Fast food dlc. Buy your own Burger shot, Cluckin Bell, or Up N Atom franchise. While also selling drugs on the side.

Changed the homie up a bit ,face and hair, ill eventually go back to the slicked back look but it didnt suit the dirty look of this outfit got a bit bloody

An even closer shot of that pretty face

To be fair, Rockstar is be able to listen to the community quite a bit. ( Hunter, Jetpack, F1 cars, passive changes, Oppressor Mk2 nerfs )

attention: rank 5 naturalist challenges displayed, just sayin

I'm gonna put my hand up and say I really don't hope we get anymore drug/hallucination crap in this game. Harriet was enough. I don't care about morphing into another animal. I really don't. And don't even get me started on that god awful Philip Carlier legendary bounty mission.

"Mind a suggestion friend? Trouble with you is you don't enjoy the game for its own rewards: stimulation, relaxation, pleasant association, and interesting conversation."

And now for some more flavor! I'm gonna slide in with a two part 50 minute long gameplay reveal of VCB v3.5.5! We're mostly gonna take a look at the new weapons, sounds, map improvements, player and especially vehicles. If you're patient enough to get to the end of the second part, expect a showcase of the flyable vehicles cheat as well as some neat little debug camera playing around! Video quality might not be optimal yet, because these videos are so fresh that Youtube is still processing them!

Update coming on the 11th , yay or nay?

I want a Hot Dog Truck as a business

And a proper drift mechanic. We have drift cars, but you can hardly call that drifting. GTA 6, rated S for safespace

Yeah, they are threaded more on the same level as movies and tv shows. But you forgetting that the general attitude toward everything has changed over the years as well (but not in a good way). And since every other part of entertainment business gets affected by it I don't know why you think it dosn't affect video games. But this topic got boring before it even started so lets just drop it here m8. Where are those essays you talking about? One sentence shorter than a tweet is an essay to you? Interesting overreaction. Also R* didn't mention them yet but those clowns surly mentioned R*, they even used their logo for merch. So surly they had some sort of a deal. If its even connected to gtao? Thats meant to be seen ofc. Hopefully not. Cause their music would surly ruin it, no matter the theme. Lets just hope this CM thing is related to a different game instead, like I don't know, manhunt? And if you haven't noticed, when we have no news this topic always turns into a repost center. Even you mentioned superbikes like at lesat 4 times this week. Also we already have a meth lab. So I don't see them doing it again just to add a different front on top of it. Unless they are planning a huge expansion for bikers. And it that case I would expect a biker bar instead.

Chain Game Announcement The last turn completed by Jimmy in the Chain Game did not adhere to the Chain Game Rules, especifically the Four Hour Wait Rule. We're going to revert the progress of the round to before the turn was taken, and therefore following turns should use the save file posted in the last valid turn which is quoted below:

All the garment sets don’t block NWO, just some. Also seems to give a body shot buffer instead

If by slow you mean at a reasonable pace, than yes, they were slow. They take their time to introduce you to numeral game mechanics and the city and things take time to progress rather than happening unreasonably fast. Look at GTA IV. You do many missions for Vlad, get to know him, grow an opinion of him THEN he dies. You have a reason to have an opinion about his death. Now let's take GTA V, you meet Simeon in one mission then get fired by him two missions later. You barely meet Madrazo in one mission then meet him again a long time later just to piss him off, which again is brief. Why should I care about anything if the game makes me feel like they just come and immediately pass away? Look at VC and SA's heist missions, things take a lot of doing and resource gathering to get the heists ready. How about GTA V? Oh you just steal one or two things then it's done, you're ready. Because of how few missions there are, some characters never get properly developed. Why should I care about Simeon or Ron or Madrazo or Stretch when I know barely anything about them? In the other GTAs your nemesees take time to track down and take down. CJ spends months looking for Big Smoke. Huang spends the entire storyline trying to locate who stole his father's sword. How about GTA V? Oh you just call a guy and he tells you where they all are in a matter of seconds, no big deal. It's like a cliche action movie. You get a bunch of generic characters and generic, uninteresting, boring antagonists and nothing really happens. If that is fast to you, then by all means call it fast.

Ok, so in my opinion the update won't have a proper "theme". I believe it will be update of the all of the available businesses. More missions for both sourcing and selling stuff and probably rebalancing some stuff, to be either easier for us or harder... I definitely would like to see more I/E vehicles. The definition of "high-end vehicles" has definitely changed now. I'd definitely see them do new tier of cars for I/E. I also have a small hope in my heart that they'll actually remove or change PostOp sales from Bikers, Merryweather and Dune FAV sales from Bunkers and the Cargobob sale from the After Hours if you have Mule or Pounder (cuz it can barely hold them on it's hook), and whatever is broken on the Hangar, dunno don't use it lmao Also, if I'd have to go a little "wishlisty" I'd add these features: - Wastelander should now be able to actually tow sh*t... It's virtually useless without this feature. - Working Skylift as a substitute for the Cargobob - option to sell in private/solo lobbies - I mean there is really no point in doing them in the public anymore. I always go into a public solo session when I sell stuff, because of that constant fear of someone destroying my cargo. It should be allowed to sell your stuff on your own in the privet sessions. There should be bonus for selling in the crowded lobbies, in fact there is one already, but it only gives 1% per person in the lobby. If they would move to the private sessions I'd rise this bonus to 2% or 3%. Also destroying people's cargo shouldn't be encouraged imo. You destroy Oppressor Mk2 that was chasing you around in the lobby trying to blow you up? Bad sport. You destroy someone else's cargo? Award. Makes no sense to me. - Further Adventures is Nerfing Oppressors - I do use Mk2, but only as a commuter. Really in ideal world these bikes wouldn't be a thing but I'll give em that, that they are definitely best way to get across map quickly. I'd still nerf them, weapon-wise, so people who use them to get from A to B quickly wouldn't be hurt by the changes - overhaul of payouts for almost all of the activities that aren't Heists, Businesses, VIP/CEO Missions - let's be honest, nobody plays contact missions because there is no point in doing so. For half an hour of Survival WITH current bonuses I've made 100k... I could have made the same amount of money if not more just doing business. You want people to experience more of this game? Increase payouts. - WhErE's My StOcK mArKeT rOcKsTeR??? For real tho, it could be pretty good DLC material imo. They have Bawsaq already running for SP, they could easily add it for Online as well... It would be obviously much more limited then in SP where you can sink in all of your billions in stock of Cluckin Bell or some sh*t And here are some random stuff I'd like to see: Again, sorry if it's too "wishlisty" I guess, but there is really not much going on right now

cant stand the weak pc culture of this days, so much hypocrizy

Holy sh*t i never knew how much i wanted a weaponized besra untill now

A few months ago, I fiddled about with the Raiden.

Human corpses won't decompose anymore, because they will always spawn fresh and in front of you. I saw a decomposed body turning into a fresh body after spawning right in front of me, and the other bodies wouldn't decompose even after days.
