[SA] Myriad Islands

[TheGuyFromThere]

Allo alo alo. Ok, I made a 5 minute weapon, and I showed TRN4L it, and he said it was pretty good, and said, I should pop by here and let you know, if you want a gun modeler for the mod, i'm the man to talk to. If you want me to model guns (or anything) just PM me. I will probably forget so best PM me. (Very bad memory...seriously)

o ok thanks for clearing that up for me lol (seriouysly not sarcasticly) and yeah I'm a total newbie when it comes to modding (I have downloaded/used mods but never made 1)

[illspirit]

Would it be possible at all to create a dead actor, laying down, which won't fade away? I know actors will stick around after they've been killed unless you manually eject them from the script, but can a body be laid out in a specific place facing a specific direction? I'm modelling a bit of an interior for the hospital, and if the body thing will work, I was thinking of making a mourge.

0372

using waitstate 30 is a guy falling over backwards.

ive never tried it out, but can you do a guy facing a direction using

0173

and the direction degree?

 

 

yeah thats good. the 30 waitstate makes them fall on their back. im just not sure if theyll stay though

morgue i think you mean

The simplest way is just to create an actor, set his angle and then kill him with the kill_actor command. It may even survive a complete shutdown if coded in MAIN and saved to a savegame. Can be done with cars anyway. The number 1 reason I had to change ODIE's car shop code. You can test it with the hunter with the current code. It even saves the visual damage effects on the hunter. And I did test that with a complete shutdown.

Barton: I downloaded the new Pathes and we need a forbidden for cars and for peds cube in front of the carshop in the buyingroutine. Should i give you some coords, or will you try it for your own?

 

brockenfish: five Bad Stars and Busted ?!? What have you done, apart ripping and (bad) modifying ST.MUs Sig ???

 

greetings

Could I please reserve the following block: illcom_c4_r10

 

I have been talking to Opius, he is currently experiencing computer problems, he would like to reserve:

illcom_c8_r5

illcom_c9_r5

 

Thank you.

Map update

 

Map with names

[Joey2003]

Yes, thats right, if you have a preveiw of your contribution to this mod, whether its a map, a vehicle, maybe an improved particle, ground or other texture, or even a mission mod, why not post it here?

 

You can rate people's designs, give them hints, tell them what you think would work, and showcase your modeling genius. Even if its a simple lamp post, or you've added light effects for someone elses modle, or anything, post it here, anything to do with the Myriad city, may as well go here

 

 

anyway, here's my mountain so far:

so here you have it, a topic for your pix

 

 

 

post away my friends

[Natedogg.]

I don't think this is acceptable, There are forums for topics like these and no point to make it again.

[Joey2003]

Unless i'm mistaken, ther isnt one for pix anywhere in the forum, so please, theres nothing wrong with it

[Demarest]

There's nothing wrong with it in my opinion. Maybe Natedogg wasn't aware this was a forum just for Myriad. I think it's a good idea.

[Demarest]

...One thing which seems to have been overlooked - hidden packages. Having them give special features like they did in Vice would be welcome (such as increasing maximum health, armour, vehicle strength) but more imaginative bonuses would be welcome. Of course, some poor sucker has to actually work out the code to do it and I know how irritating that can be. ...

I don't think it's very hard at all. Waldorf was the first mod I ever released and it was little more than a revised HP reward system. The only hurdles I encountered were results of brain-farts and my newness to coding for GTA.

[Re Crypt]

Just a lil bit more and then I´ll kill myself, I would really like to get a part of the island, but since I have major problems with Moo Mapper ( everything snow, snow white ) I can´t even finish my Petronas Towers, if that could be solved, I could make the towers in a version for the Myriad Island/City...

 

* ReCrypt starts to cry.... *

 

Anyways, great work you guys, really looking forward for the all completed release

 

Thats a for y´all !

[Esperanto_Boy]

I like the idea myself.

[Joey2003]

RE Crypt, i used to have sommet like that

 

have you got a TXD.img, or just a GTA.img

 

cos thats my problem, just turn textures off, and at least you'll get a 3d shaded version, and it looks fine to meh

 

unless its sommet different

[wastedbreath]

Now, I haven't read all the pages ...mostly because theres 28 of them . So I got a couple questions:

 

-Is the 'Weed Hut' appropriate? (Mary-Jane greenhouse with a Gardening Center as a front)

 

-Is there a limit to lots/amount of buildings on a lot?

 

Thanks

 

EDIT:

I also noticed something else, which I don't know if anyone else realised. And I don't know coding bu here goes anyway.

If the islands can be mixed and matched, each island would have to have a special ped and car path correct? I don't know if thats even possible so I'm just pointing that out.

I never realised I could reserve a spot on the island. Could you grafiti my name on

 

illcom_c7_r3

illcom_c8_r3

 

If you could please, thanks.

[caponester]

could i reserve illcom_c1_c3 please

[Barton Waterduck]

If you could please, thanks.

I think we should set a limit on how much time people are allowed to use to create something useful on their lots before they get booted out.

 

And good modders should be allowed to boot anybody out any time no matter what they create.

 

[Barton Waterduck]

I don't think this is acceptable, There are forums for topics like these and no point to make it again.

As a moderator here, I want to see more topics like this. It's kinda the hole point in creating a separate forum for this project. Everything is allowed (by me atleast) as long it makes sense. Sounds, cars, maps, boats, pictures, requests, bug reports, new islands, work in progress, future work planned, anything Myriad related.

Uhh, believe it or not, this is the Myriad City forum. Therefore, this thread is for Myriad city WIPs. I see absolutely no sense in posting pictures anywhere else when we have a forum for it here.

[caponester]

I only need the one lot maybe i could use a smaller one since im only making a small market area

[die Catalina die]

I agree barton. Look at how many people reserved rooms for Werre's tower, yet not even quarter of a quarter of them did anything with it. Dont let the same happen here.

[caponester]

 

heres my first picture for my lot i was thinking of a small fair i dunno if you can make out the picture too well but theres a few guns (custom ones) on the table

[caponester]

I will surely contribute to this mod

[Barton Waterduck]

ODIE: I don't think there would be any point in adding any forbidden for cars and for peds cube there. They only remove random pedestrians and random cars. The clear_area command already in there does the same thing. You could clear a bigger area, but that's about it. The only way to remove any scripted cars parked in front of it would be to disable the car shop during missions. I have no idea what you've added to your script since "you got it back". If you haven't scripted any more cars, there aren't any scripted cars left in there. The cars you buy are changed into random cars, so they never interfere. Unless you changed that back again.

 

And I completely rewrote "your" "shop robbing" code. About 20% left of it now. PLEASE don't rip any more R* stuff. Code like R* did, but don't rip any. You get to much code that isn't needed.

 

And I where can I get the rest of your codes ? Like the codes for interriours ? I was thinking about including it in my next release. Is your disco released yet ? I have not installed v0.04 yet.

 

About garbage truck missions: Garbage trucks carry garbage. Two types possible, Sims or Nuts.

 

[Joey2003]

Thanks alot Barton and DCD

 

its nice to know that

 

 

anyway, isthat a budweiser thing, or has it got fish and chips, just wondering
