I want a lot to edit NOW. Is c9-r6 avaiable? If yes, where can I download it?

Download it ? lol. No , you just need the lastest MI download for SA and a Mapper. just find the location in the mapper and start mapping.

[GTAGrandmasta]

Where can I download the game itself???

[Cran.]

 

Therefore I don't see why AlexG can't have c9-r6..

if there is a big lot where I can build on...

If you want a big lot wait for illnorth then... if you want illcom then just do it now.

Ugh. He said it wants c9_r6, so yeah!

All in .max format, so I hope you work with 3dsmax. What program do you use?

 

@lordfido huh? what do you call that

[lord fido]

Eh... anyways wats the "Special" thing with that.

kaaspizza: Good work.

As aad says, it's a nice, clean looking lot. The library steps I like, they're an interesting shape.

 

I do have one suggestion. I think that the sign need some work.

Just the word 'Library' isn't really realistic.

Why not 'GTI Municipal Library' funded by 'MI+GTI City Council' with The Myriad logo.

My cities libraries have the local council logo splashed all over them.

 

Jost_Vice: It looks as if your new lot is coming together.

 

I do have one suggestion for the sign. Why not make the logo larger to fill the space between the two lines of text.

 

PS. My new PC arrives tomorrow. I'll be up and running again by thursday and I'll PM you your first lot release then.

[locO G]

 

Eh... anyways wats the "Special" thing with that.

It's got two 3ds Max lights for prelighting.

 

Prelighting. It's a long story so I won't repeat it here...

Without at least some prelighting, you lot will appear very dark in game.

If you read through this forum, you'll find everything you need to know.

 

If you have any questions, please post in the Myriad Islands FAQ and help topic.

 

There's been quite a lot of 'off topic' posts in MI recently, It would be good to see an end to it.

 

To all: Please read before you post. Thank you.

[locO G]

 

Where can I download the game itself???

Wow! Off topic! I thought that someone had some news about the trains.

 

If you'd read the topic titles, before posting, you'd have noticed one called [REL] Myriad & GTI San Andreas.

That's where one can download an unofficial WIP version.

 

If, in future, you have any questions, please post them here.

[locO G]

i forgot to backup(opps...)...and i dun want to re installed,because my big bro will know,and he not for me play his computer aain...oh men...how can't it be...how can't i forgot to backup ....somebody help me plzzzz...and u said Handy Tool,waz iz daz,iz help me get the normal files?

I'm getting tired of this.

 

Just uninstall and then reinstall GTA-SA.

 

Your saved games will not be affected.

[Gforce]

 

now using the new illurb road sizing.

 

@kaaspizza:nice looking lot ... good to see some GTI work ........

[Gforce]

 

tunnel,shops,appartments,gas station,sideroads,warehouse and maybe a small park with a basketball area.............. 30 - 40 ID numbers required

 

 

personally i think the topic title should be changed to "Lot Request's and Map Design"........... general layout discussion.

 

discussion generates creativity and fluidity in design, and we need somewhere to discuss the general layout of the entire map and that includes GTI.

 

 

What the f*ck are you on about dude? ................... He has that lot, and that's the end of it  ........ your not one to dictate this, i'm incharge of the lots. What I say goes.

 

Please stop talking about your plans here.

 

oh really? ..........YOU!!.............STFU!!!

 

the topic does have the word discussion in it's title.......and this is a CMP after all ......................

 

 

[Cran.]

Take it, it's a vital lot, so i'll let you have that now.

[Cran.]

Sweet! I'm loving it. Should look great when done. You still using zmod?

[Cran.]

 

If people want to make sensible alterations to the railway pieces for their lot, I think they should be allowed.  But they should  discuss it in this thread and it should get approval from other MI members first.

That sounds reasonable to me, and it would be a great chance for some easter eggs, and that kind of thing. Maybe with my lot on illnorth, I could have a ghetto spot where a train crashed, with a remains of a train and some broken gates on the tracks Of course, the government would be too greedy and currupt to fix up most of it, and would just get the tracks working.

[Alexg]

 

Download it ? lol. No , you just need the lastest MI download for SA and a Mapper. just find the location in the mapper and start mapping.

LOL!

Ok, perfect! I use 3Ds Max 8.

 

Some questions:

 

1) The buildings and objects must be attached with terrain to make an unique 3D model?

2) If yes, I start to create objects from the terrain or separately and then I attach they to the lot?

Cran, I don't think there's space on the tracks to have any debris. Also, I think that train crashes do get cleared up from ghettos because investigators have to figure out what went wrong.

 

JB had exams but I think they are over now. Illspirit was making lots of improvements to the Northern islands and has been doing more of the railway route. I think Respawn was hoping to put together a developer's release of Necrosis, but I havn't seen a topic about it yet.

 

(EDIT) I would like all railway progress and conversations to be done in this topic, though. I have too much work elsewhere to keep track of every MI topic for things people have done or want to do with the railway. So, if railway authors make a post in PPT I'd like them to post in here as well, or PM me or something.

Maybe make the cars take much more damage but on the other hand add petrol usage. That would have similar gameplay effects but make Myriad more interesting/stand out more. Also it would make buying cars and discouraging use of stolen cars more feasible because your car wouldn't explode every few minutes. Maybe only traffic-accident-damage should be decreased while damage through gun fire stays about the same, otherwise we wouldn't have enough exploding cars.

"Lot Request's and Map Design"...........

 

Me likes

 

 

 

 

@ Cran: I'd really like you to take of Yeti off the map untill he has shown previous work. ( I haven't got anything against Yeti, I'm just worried 'cause we're talking about quite a bit of land here).

 

I'd also like to mention that, since you're in charge of the map, you might consider to contact SR or a mod around here to replace the map in the first post. I'm sick of scrolling through this topic looking for the last updated map.

@AlexG: I think the best way to make a lot is to make building separately, then stick em in the same file as your lot, then landscpare the lot properly, like deleting the grass off it, making a proper go at the ground. Too many people have just stuck buildings onto the grass, and it's kinda obvious. Since when have you seen a skyscraper sat on top of a pile of grass?

[Gforce]

not any more, that screeny is 100% Max, i originally had texturing problems in Max with the new road section so i exported and corrected them in zmod but when i reimported things went wobbly again so i completely remade the road section again last night in Max (after fixing tex path problems) and all is now fine

 

i'm going to be having some fun next making the "sweep"ing tunnel

 

on a side note both my released lots were also designed and constructed originally in Max, i simply found it easier to texture and manipulate polies in zmod. you dont think you get hi-quality 3D sign's and staircases in zmod did you ?

 

btw ...... can your lot do this ?

 

 

[Cran.]

Yes, I THOUGHT SO! And yes, it can do it all night long!

 

Very nice though.

[Cran.]

I might just make a new topic, make it alot easier. I don't remeber, but I think I have seen some of his work before.

 

But i'll ask him on MSN or something.

Lot Maps

Updated:

[Cran.]

Err, I don't think so. And the damage, as far as I know is hardcoded, as to how much it can take.

 

But I dont think this is the right topic to talk about that.

[JasonB]

Fare thee well old timer topic.

 

Locked.

[Gforce]

these forum locks are getting easier and easier to unlock

[JostVice]

Very sexy gforce! You go to make a toll?

 

About the pic, what are doing some seasparrows in the building?

[Cran.]

Oi!

 

Put that lock right back!

[Gforce]

Oi!

 

Put that lock right back!

i can't, i don't have the power of the Mod CP any more.

 

there never was a lock, he forgot to add it

[Alexg]

This is my lot!

 

 

But excuse me, usually when I make a map I use the Multi Sub/Object, not the balls

Can I add some extra balls from the Material Editor?

 

*** Ok guys I've resolved my problem making all materials Multi Sub/Object and GTA Material - now is perfect!
