Very cool my dude Hope you will do Tommy, then main cast and peds i know its a tall order but those models with ai upscaled texture would do wonders to this version of the game 

I really would like to do that with the peds, but i don't have to much time to do that right now, i want to focus on Tommy first, and then when if finished i'll try with the peds, or even better, if someone knows about Importing Models 3D to GTA IV, i could export the Peds from VC:DE in .obj format and .png textures to share in this topic for some help.

Hi Guys, i would like to tell you that i'm getting back to modding, even if i have to much to do in my job hahaha, i really wanted to someone import the clothes from GTA VICE CITY DEFINITIVE EDITION to this glorius version Next Gen Edition, because i really didn't like to much the model low poly to use, so i wanted to show you that recently i could export the models from VC:DE to my 3DMAX, so maybe tomorrow or this weekend i will start to work in this importation to the playerped.rpf, because i have to start to learn again how to use the tools from 3d Max and GIMS IV to import peds to the game, just a picture from the model extracted:

My expectation to this is to use another face from Tommy Vercetti, not the VC:DE, just his High Poly clothes from there.

Sounds promising! You've already got further than I got when I tried this. I wasn't even able to rip the files without the software crashing.

 

If you're looking for a good Tommy head, the V1 Tommy model on the vcne mods and visuals is pretty good. Would you make the head a separate entity so users could swap it out? Would be good to find a 3d head model of 90's Ray Liotta and slap it on there.

Yes, it was difficult to export the models too, but i finally did it, and yes, i saw the V1 Tommy Model on the vcne mods and i think is a pretty good face model, here an image to see the difference with the picture i sent before: https://imgur.com/a/AlT40cU

 

It needs some fixes, but something like that i would like to do.

Nice! Are you able to share the ped rips? Wouldn't mind taking a look and seeing about porting a few less over. The blocky characters are a little immersion breaking IMO.

Yeah for sure, who would you like to export?, some Peds? or any Main Character first?, and yes, the Blocky Characters break the inmersion, i only like the Clothes with higher poly and resolution from them.

A couple of random Peds? Your choice, just to see if I can still do model rigging! Thanks.

Have you got a link to this? Could be worth reaching out to this developer to see if they're permit us to use this for future Tommy mods.

FAQ

Q: Error “Securom reported error #2000” when launching the game
A: Install all the libraries from the Redist folder, which is included in the installation archive.

Q: Endless loading screen after starting the game / texture loading issues
A:

1. Navigate to the game folder (for example: D:\Games\GTA Vice City Nextgen Edition).
2. Open the text file commandline.txt, delete all its contents, and insert the following:

     -availablevidmem 30
     -detailquality 31
     -nomemrestrict
     -norestrictions
     -novblank
     -renderquality 4
     -shadowdensity 4
     -shadowquality 4
     -texturequality 2
     -viewdistance 1

       3. Save the file and start the game.

               * IMPORTANT NOTE: The -availablevidmem parameter is unique to each system. If you still experience issues, you may need to adjust the value manually for your setup.
                Here are some test values:
             -availablevidmem 25
             -availablevidmem 3000
             -availablevidmem 8000
                If your available VRAM shows more than 3000 MB and a red warning appears, do not worry – that is expected.

 

Q: Error “0xc0000005”, “0xc000007b” / black screen with only the interface visible
A: Disable ENB in the launcher settings.

Q: Error when saving the game
A: Try disabling your antivirus so that the game can create the save file.

Q: The game shows a “drunken camera” effect
A: Try disabling your antivirus and restart the game.

Q: After loading the autosave following the “Demolisher” mission, the loading screen remains indefinitely.
A: Wait longer than usual (3-5 minutes) and the game should load.

 

Q: When changing launcher settings, an error window appears stating “An unexpected error occurred: Cannot access file”
A: Run the launcher as an administrator.

Q: The launcher does not start
A:

1. Install Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5.
2. If it is already installed and the launcher still won’t start, perform the following steps in Windows: Go to Settings > Apps & features > Optional Features > More Windows Features and check the box for .NET Framework 3.5 (includes .NET 2.0 and 3.0).
3. Click OK and restart your computer.

 

Q: Changing the language in the game does not change the voice-over / changing the language in the launcher does not affect the in-game interface language
A: The launcher only sets the language for itself and the voice-over. The game interface language is changed within the game (Settings > Display > Language).

Q: Very frequent crashes during gameplay
A: Currently, the entire community is awaiting a patch from the enthusiasts’ team that will fix many crashes (for example, crashes caused by sniper rifle shots or crashes after missions).
In the meantime, you can try to reduce crashes (there is no guarantee this will fix all of them):

1. Enable vertical synchronization in the NVIDIA/AMD control panel (the software depends on your graphics card).
2. Disable thread optimization in the NVIDIA/AMD control panel (the software depends on your graphics card), as the RAGE engine does not fully utilize multi-core processing.
3. Disable vertical synchronization in the game.
4. In the game settings, set the draw distance to 1 (this fixes issues such as texture flickering, failure to load after rapid camera changes, and crashes related to LOD conflicts).
5. Reduce traffic in the game settings to 20%.
6. Use any weapon except the sniper rifle, as it causes the game to crash in 90% of cases.

Unless you're planning on making the outfits customisable would it really matter if the model was one solid piece? Looks like all the peds have been done that way, would probably be easier to use Benzies Tommy mod as a base as he already chopped it back up. 

[KIskoCTM]

My first attempt to the mod, it need some fixes yet https://imgur.com/a/nCaCKI6.

 

I need to fix the specular texture and some animations that has some bugs in the hand

[dudekoles]

Looks fantastic did you change body proportions? They seams to be more realistic and good for it

I find that if you are on a taxi mission, if there's a timer counting down and you go in a pay and spray, the game crashes.

Looks great! Which head model did you go for in the end? Think he made 3 of them

After I take down all the gunners of the two chasing boats, and just a few seconds after the heli shows up, Vance yells "there are gunmen on that jetty". Immediately after that the game freezes amd crashes, every single time. I even tried changing my clothes. Why does this happen and how can I fix this?
