[SA] Myriad Islands

[definition_of_freak]

i changed the timecycle.dat some time ago when i was modding Vice. So i loaded it into Myriad to see what it would look like. It came out pretty good.

 

Pics. (click to enlarge)

 

The only setbacks to this is any lot that is not pre-lit, or is TOO prelit, looks out of place.

 

But I feel, once everything was prelit correctly, it would be a nice touch to the Myriad nightlife.

 

I have the file here if you want to check it out.

Edited timecycle.dat

 

Oh yeah, and this also looks really good in just normal Vice City. Probably better.

And if anyone is interested, i can do one for GTA3 as well.

I can release it now since the lot is updated. It would work now. Added an easter egg myself. You may not like it though. Anyway, just get 4 wanted stars, get on that roof and hit the sign pole. Stand on the south side of it.

With what you can do on a lot in a week or two makes me wonder what you could if you had months to spare!

 

Brilliant work, JasonB. And I don't mean just this lot. You've been a major contributer to the Myriad cause for awhile now.

 

Keep it up the good work.

Yeah please release it, then I could add it to the pack.

That's the thing, uber-dark (though realistic) nights don't really fit the game.

awsome lot

Wow this lot has gotta be one of the best!

 

I realy love Joes Do they sell Duff?

[caponester]

If anyone wants a good temporary timecyc.dat then use the one from Gta Liberty City, It realy suits Myriad

 

Oh and Is anyone planning a new Myriad Installer with everything in it?

[aad]

Fixed some errors around the newer lots and lined things up in regards to ide and ipl, I keep getting a texture bug with sadistics new bridge in Moo Mapper, so i'll ask him about that sometime. Odie's Skyline is the only other lot that shows problems in moo mapper but that was in the last release.

 

Seems to run stable for me, been messing around with it for a few hours in total with no problems as of yet. I could really just re-write the read me and finish of the installer and release it. Just need to srt the hosting with illspirit first though...

i can offer a mirror again when u release it but then i need to take/remove the old installer that wouldnt matter i think i still got 30mb free at my host so just count me in for another mirror

[poohead]

someone should make a gas truck and make it really weak so wen u shoot it, it will explode after like 1 hit. that would b cool. u can even put the gas station logos on it since we got 2 of them now

[Vercetti Gangsta]

I can also offer a Mirror if you need one. I have 50mb free space on my (danish) Tripod page.

Released.

With the update in this thread for the lot and the updated mission script I still get no Myria sign ontop of the pole. I don't think ive edited his lot, so im not quite sure of the problem. Its as if the model does't exist in the archive or something? The sign doesn't show up in Moo Mapper so iuts not in teh ipl still.

 

I don't know anything mission coding related unfortunately though, so it could easily be my fault.

 

[edit] Model is there in teh archive, but is not called upon from the ipl, but still doesn't show up ingame.

OK, ok, ok, ok, ok, ok.

 

So I am guessing I have done some things wrong. "SPAMMED UP" So I have too many lines of code or something then? By that post what I really mean is "for barton to have a nice little look at the code and see if there are any little errors which need fixing". Whats wrong with setting "john smiths" angle? Blah blah balh

 

good luck with what ever your gonna do with the mission... i tried

[Blade Nightflame]

Eh, I dunno, I always wanted some of these features in Vice City mods..

 

- The player being able to sit on a bench, on the stairs, or maybe even use that Umbrella like thing near the Restaurant to sit on.

 

- The player also being able to change modes between 'Pedestrian Walk' 'Jogging' and 'Running'. (3 modes of walking/running.)

 

- Being able to also lean against walls, well, I dunno about this though.

 

- The player also to be able to rest anywhere, like on couches, benches..

 

 

That's probably all it. Well, maybe even able to drive a plane, but that's their choice. The top ideas is what I really wanna see in Myriad Islands!

It's not like I made up the definition of spam. It's just lack of logic, junk or anything totally needless. Your code has both totally perfect working code and junk. The code works, but parts of it don't need to be in there. So I just said it's spammed up. Do you know yourself why you put in all those broken IF blocks ? I don't see the point in doing that when you know how to use IF blocks. Your code uses correct IF blocks all over the place, so the 1000 dollar question is why you would fill it up with useless broken IF blocks. It's like you coded it correctly first, then "puked" all over it, uploaded it and then sent the link to this forum. Since it's obvious that you can code, you can clean it up yourself and upload it again. If you had bothered to check those coordinates of all the pickups you created in your first script, more of them would have been in my script. I don't bother to check those new parked cars you created because it's obvious you couldn't care less about checking if anything you code actually works. If you did, your own pickups would have working coordinates.

 

You can fix all of these:

 

00D6: if 1 0001: wait 0 ms ;8119:   NOT   car $bangcar wrecked ;0038:   $knife5a7 == 0;; integer values ;004D: jump_if_false £actor8

 

by doing what you did in other places in the code -> put those wait codes outside the IF block, like this:

 

0001: wait 0 ms 00D6: if 1 ;8119:   NOT   car $bangcar wrecked ;0038:   $knife5a7 == 0;; integer values ;004D: jump_if_false £actor8

 

Why did you use hexadecimal numbers in your global variables ? Do you find them easier to read than global variables without it ? I mean, what's the logic in a variable called $knife5a7 ? What does it mean ? Is it street code for "I hate mission scripting ?" Lets go 5a7 ? Just asking. BTW, that $knife5a7 variable isn't used anywhere so you can delete all of them. Don't use '££' in missions, use just one of them, like '£'. You can delete all of these:

0002: jump £johnsmith :johnsmith...0002: jump £fadebak :fadebak

 

because there is no point in jumping to where you're already at. It's like a waste of time because you'll just land where you jumped from. It's like a repeat of stuff posted in the mission coding forum since forever. It's like it's the same old person posting over and over again the same old code. I stopped posting in that forum because of this because I always knew what code I would read before I turned on my PC. Like a complete waste of time. Always the same

jump label:labelif 0a hole bunch of codes that has nothing to do with that "if 0".

 

Also, since it's a very good fully working mission with a terrible source code, add some audio to it. I'm sure you can do that too.

I listed the easter eggs? Didn't know. Well I found a very cool easter egg. While I was doing some cullings on your lot, I saw a whale in Joes!

[BCspeed34]

Hahah like the orca in the simpsons!

 

Great job Jason, love those easter eggs.

[Barton Waterduck]

Ok I am gonna fix all of this stuff. I will make it MY mission to make this mission work. As for audio, yes it needs audio. I just need someone to do smiths voice (I'm not going to do it) So if anyone would like to do the voice PM me and I will tell you what you have gotta say!
