[SA] Myriad Islands

[caponester]

woops it's a brand name i'll change the vending machine too

[TRN4L]

i'm down wit that barton, since i almost got 2 lots done, and will be making a 3rd very soon

[brokenfish]

would someone be interested in making a dragstrip (or is there one already?)?

 

id like to make a race mission.

 

if not a straight dragstrip, then just a regular track will be fine.

thanks

 

any takers? if not then ill just try myself. it will just go very slow

[Run Down That Guy]

OK, on the VERY large roads for car paths, set the wideness to 1 and they will be in 2 lanes on bot sides going in the correct direction...

[Re Crypt]

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

Well, I have only an GTA3.IMG, first it worked fine, but after I started moo mapper after some while ( 3-4 Weeks ) with the texture option on, everything is snow white, I really don´t know whats the problem, my system is pretty the same as for those 3-4 Weeks ago, so

 

@Caponester : I really like your idea, maybe you can make a whole lot of those, in different version so that every lot can be somewhere on the Island

 

-RC, the very sad person

[Joey2003]

i'll put one near meh mountain if ya want

 

or maybe you could do a race up my mountain

 

kinda like king of the hill

[brokenfish]

yeah please, that would be great!

as soon as its integrated into the empty city (myriad isles?), ill try to put a race on it.

 

thanks!

Minor thread-jacking here: um, if you had to pick one island from either GTA3 or VC, which would be your absolute favourite? First to either three or five votes (not sure yet) wins...

staunton island from gta3 why may i ask? my reason for picking this is because it reminds me of new york

Gta 3. Hands down. Although I think vice city had better music and that's bout it.

I don't know if this will have an interior since it's basically an object on my lot just to take up space and/or be scenery. I might make the first floor office accessible though

 

And I know the ground sucks because I don't know how to do landscaping of any sort. Maybe a modeler experienced in landscaping can help.

 

 

And this train station is in its very early stage. I still have more exterior modeling to do, then I will do the interior. After that I will be making some other accessories to this train station theme that I won't reveal until I get to them.

portland is by far the best part of all the gta games cause its so diverse with all the buildings and gangs

My three projects

 

(1) My House, with interior.

And a side elevation shot, since it can be a bit confusing.

About 33% done. Still needs two more rooms and furniture.

 

(2)Virtudyne Building

Still needs a driveway, and some sort of interior.

About 33% done.

 

(3)Large residential block.

Only one building base down really. No interiors on this one, although I want to have a walk-through arcade type thing, hopefully with lots of opportunities for bike stunts.

About 5% done.

 

[Dalpura]

I would like to reserve another block please. I thought one small one would be enough for me, but I like the progress I am making and feel I would like another.

 

Could I please have illcom_c5_r10

One question though, to those of you that have already made 3 lots or more without posting a single picture of it and not recycled anything, how did you do it ? And if every single object on your lot is reimported into the IMG and recycled, how do you expect to get it into this island ? I mean, everybody can choose for themselves what to download. I for sure have no plans for downloading anything like that. And that is my choice you know, so... Anyway, I don't think reserving a lot means that nobody else can build on it. It's a free world. If I decide to put 20 high quality building on lots already reserved for cheaper stuff, what would prevent me from just releasing something like that without asking anybody or reserving anything ? And if anybody tried, what would prevent me from just releasing something like that on some unknown german site somewhere ? It's just a question, not a threat. I'm not a modeller myself. I just see some posts in here that seems a bit of the rockers, if you know what I mean. Just use your brains (in case you didn't, what do I know) (I really don't).

if some one will make a Myriad Island signature and avatar i will wear them

Crazy

brokenfish posted this in a bad place

im wondering about the mission script. i know bartons site has the "official" file, but what if people want to add to it? does it have to be approved first or something? id like to make a few contributions if possible

My reply:

Weeell....... if I can't get somebodys code to work no matter how hard I try, if a code can't be made compatible with the rest of the codes, or if I just don't like a code send to me or if I just don't like the codes in scripts released separately, it won't be included in my official release. To make a long story short, whatever code gets in most likely get rewritten by me to make it as stable as possible and as compatible with other codes as possible. Like, I almost ran out of "will" to make ODIE's "shop robbery" code fit my own standards, but I got there enventually. If I had given up on something as "important" as making shop robbery possible (with my own standards), people would just release scripts that would get more popular than mine, stable or not. My goal is therefor to make the best script available, in every way, totally stable and with features nobody else can provide. If anybody wanna compete with me, that's a good thing, because it will make my script even better.

 

[TheGuyFromThere]

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.

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.

I'm creating as we speak. Let me get a little more done and i'll get you a little picage of it so far.

[crazy1stgamer2nd]

What about

Gone In 59 Seconds

Have to steal cars within a set time limit.(unlike sun-shine autos easy as pie)

EDIT-Sorry i read through and this had been mentioned but i came up with a good title.

[ODIE]

Its to ealy to release the second prop, i want to build more new interieur for the recycled buildings. Yesterday i wrote a shootingrange-mission that works very fine, i hope dont forget any of your rules.

 

Putting some R* code together, send it to master Barton to make it real good work is easy, but you have less time, so i must use my brain for coding and hope you will like the way i did.

 

If i get near release, i notice you via PM and give you a Beta before release, so you can start writing the gaynightmission, while iam finishing my prop.

 

 

URGENT** wich variable shows the points for the shooting range in the statistic ?? I want to set the players points at this variable after my shootingrange and also use it for the "Points to beat" Var for 2nd or more shooting.

 

 

greetings

Okay, I completely re-did the radar using flat map-colored textures for the island (which are included for laughs), and a 1280x960 screeny from MooMapper with 4xAA and 4xAF on which resulted in near pixel-perfect alignment of the radar. I also went through and gave the new radar bits alpha channels with varying degrees of opacity so as to give it a GTA3-ish feel. (Demarest's idea )

And while playing around with all that, I made a new pause-screen map as well. It's not perfect, but then again, it seems the original was off a bit too, so, erm, yea...

All of the above can be downloaded here.

 

 

[crazy1stgamer2nd]

Looks great good work can u make me a Myriad signatur or avatar?this is gonna rock

[Snow Racer]

[Demarest]

Looks awesome! I was so right This proves that VC would look better with translucent radars.
