[SA] Myriad Islands

[Eclipse_nl]

The industry lots near the villalots will be light industry like car garages...

[Bungle]

isn't it about time someone thought about finding some replacement hosts? mm2x seems to have killed off his file area for the time being, which breaks half the links

I think everyone should just wait for SA now. When we are working on SA all the files will be on www.myriadislands.com so everything will be in one place.

 

[Bungle]

we have no idea how long it'll be until a release-able version for SA will be available, and there are still people who want to try out the VC version, but are limited to what they can get. I at least think someone should consider trying to repair some broken links whilst we wait for the SA version..

Well, I would hope MI will be in SA this year allthough I don't know. It's up yo the authors to upload their things again.

 

[mickarrow]

Most stuff is in the 0.3 installer, no? Maybe we could use a 0.4 wich has ALL the pre-SA stuff in it, to avoid broken links with single lots. Any volunteers?

[Mark]

 

still, most villas ain't near any kind of industry..lol - GTAuron

 

[locO G]

I would dearly love to contribute to this mod but it seems as though there is WIP on all lots. Please let me know if any are relinquished

Lot: illsub_c1_r1 (but it could go anywhere. Perhaps on Northern Islands)

Pics:Pending

Description:Executive family house. Walled driveway, swimming pool, hedged garden, orchard, greenhouse, private jetty.

 

Please could someone let me know

Of course it isn't .

With the MI conversion to San Andreas the possibilities are greatly expanded.

 

One thing I dont like about VC/SA is that ones health returns to max after saving. not to mention the loss of wanted stars in SA. Would it be possible to remove this from MI? With no health pick-ups it would put a greater emphasis on the eating which, together with the other RPG-style elements in SA, expanded gameplay without detracting from the core of the original game.

[Knife]

I don't see any problem with the health returning and wanted level decreasing after a save. I sometimes save just for that purpose so....

 

And I guess a poll could be started on the food situation as some people didn't like the food idea.

One way to please everyone would be to have some elements as optional mods for the game.

I'm no fan of the RPG (endless clicking through dialogue options etc) but I loved the muscle, fat, haircuts and the clothing. I have played SA five times from start to finish (currently on number six) and every time my character has been different

[Knife]

Customisation will be something that I will work on. There will be a lot of new things in the modshop* that will allow you to change how you play

 

 

*the modshop is a selection screen with a choice of mods e.g. car spwan, god mode ect ect

[Danhex]

Can someone help me, I want to add lots to my MI, I feel like theirs so much empty space and I could add so much more, how do i do it?

[Cran.]

You have to be able to actually have skill and be able to model. Don't even bother, there is alot of work going on behind the scenes.

[BenMillard]

I've still recieved no word from Respawn. I guess that means he wants us to design a route around his island without his help. It would only haven taken a minute to let people know what's happening but he's simply ignoring MI at the moment. He has made his choice and he'll just have to scrap whatever gets in the way.

1500 x 1500, 246kB.

 

I assume that the hairpin in the North-west of his island will be at a sufficiently different level to the railway. Running the railway on the coastland means there could be a freight terminal on one side (probably the West) and a passenger station on another site (probably the South). The railway would run close to road level...hopefully.

 

Not how I wanted things to turn out but Respawn has stopped the MI projects in its tracks (if you'll excuse the pun). It's not fair on all the other members for one person to hold everything up like this, so he'll have to deal with the consequences.

Don't blame him. As said before, the most important thing at the moment is to plan the tracks for the Northern islands, since that is what holds everything up. The SW part of the tracks can always be refined/redesigned later.

[Mark]

 

Good point, I mean simple thing would be to just not allow anyone to have lots SW of that island til a later date, but still let out the rest of the northern islands. - GTAuron

The track route across the Northern islands which I made on October 16th seems to have general approval but the SW section is missing.

 

Without guidance from Respawn I can't be sure how serious the alterations to the railway route will need to be. If he insists on using the Eastern bridge then the illSTA idea has to be scrapped, the route could not travel up the East coast of illURB, the tunnel through Black Mesa would be different and there would be a knock-on effect through the rest of the route. If he insists on the Northern bridge then the route across illRES will need to have major changes to avoid a set of extremely sharp bends in the SW of that island. Respawn's lack of support is causing a big problem.

 

The last thing I want is for the work of the railway builder to be scrapped because my designs were wrong. I need Respawn's help to create a route which includes Necrosis and to make sure big changes won't need to be made to the sections which get built.

 

I hope that the November 9th design would not require the October 16th route to be altered but it might cause big problems on Necrosis. The absence of Respawn's guidance means the whole route may need major changes. If that route doesn't cause major problems on Necrosis, then I would put it forward as the final route, although it needs height details yet.

 

I'm not sure what JasonB's view of this is.

That way you don't have to do sh*t!

[mickarrow]

 

I can't see it. It says 'error while downloading codec'

[mickarrow]

Are you talking about inserting the existing lots in Myriad, or inserting your own stuff in Myriad.

If it's existing lots, most of them that aren't in the 0.3 installer allready have their own BW install script.

If it's your own stuff, I suggest you browse the forums to find a tutorial on how to get stuff ingame.
