[SA] Myriad Islands

[mickarrow]

 

So until we get paths you can play with other people?

That's what real life is for

 

But seriously. All in good time. Now if you got other questions, there's a FAQ.

 

We're talking about Myriad here...patience is a must

I second.

Generic, dynamic, custom objects test No. 2: The Shirt Racks.

 

 

I'm a real object.DAT 'noob'. If I try to make them dynamic, all they do is fall through the floor!

I've tried everything I know, but hey...

 

It's still early days.

If I find out anything, I'll let you all know.

 

More pending... Watch this space.

 

PS: All hats off for Mickarrow for getting a handle on the 'water.DAT' file.

His lots are worth the wait and worth their weight in gold! Trust me (he won't release until it's all 'right', and all the better for it).

[Cran.]

I believe they will need a colision model if they are dynamic, and by dynamic, you mean being able to move around and all, right? If there is no colision, they'll just fall through the floor!

[lord fido]

 

I second.

Was posting this really necesary loc0 G?

 

Anyways , I think that Odies berlin lot needs peds inside the tower, the garden and the bet shop. I think the Cop station should have cops and the fire station firemen (never implemented ever on a game) . I hope somebody adds Myriad International Airport.

So much beautiful work here...too bad it will be for SA

 

I've been playing MI Vice nonstop lately.

[lord fido]

1. It crashes.

 

2. Cmon , the future is on SA.

[BCspeed34]

When I play, all of my sounds are if they are in a big closed building, it's all echoy and loud. I have no idea what to do.

[BCspeed34]

I dont like the lighting, it's too...ghetto.

 

Perhaps once thats fixed, and a new player model introduced, I might sway towards SA. (I have MI on my SA, but it's all laggy, less fun IMO). Perhaps... can you remove the heat waves? They are incredibly unrealistic.

[Cran.]

We've got a new prelighting standard now

 

 

It's waiting to be put ingame

[aad]

@ Loco G really amazing how it all looks, and for those objects that you want to make dynamic just make them as a normal object and put it ingame only thing you then need to do is putting them into the object dat by

 

 

yourmodelname  50000.0,	50000.0,	0.99,  0.05,  50.0,  9999.0, 1.0,    200,	0,	0,  0,	0,	0.0, 0.0, 0.0,  none  	5000.0, 0.01,  0.01,  0.01,  0.07,	1,	0

 

 

and the colfile you need to assign the right material in it to work default colfile wont work for most of dynamic objects. i have been working on some ride trough hedges and they seem to work nicely hopefully i can get that effect that leaves will fall of when u ride trough them.

[lord fido]

I'm planning on taking a lot. I'll post my stuff , you tell me if it fits on Myriad.

i hope it's not another sketch like the last one, it certainly had me lost for words ........

[locO G]

 

I'v started filling up the shopping centre before finishing the model itself (nature abhors a vacuum and so do I).

 

Here's another 'object.DAT' test...

 

 

... then watch them rock...

 

[Cran.]

How'd you get them from falling through the floor?

[lord fido]

Excellent.

 

Cookies for locO G!

 

EDIT:

 

Yo. Here's a low-detail version of my Casino & Resort for Myriad Islands. Been killing my self for good textures.

 

 

Its behind the locOshops and Jost_Vice's. Hope it comes out good. I'm adding Alexg's crosstrack at the end.

Sorry, didn't notice anything here, ANYWAY. Your bike would be a welcome addition, we have a few bike slots avaliable, so take your pick

[aad]

If that is low detailed them im the pope and i not mean that it has a lot of details i more mean the amount of polygons and vertexes it will have by the looks of it.

 

 

Just good luck on finishing it, and may finish of my new building with interior today and add some cool stuff in it.

[ReadMeMyMirandas]

Are vehicles supposed to spawn in this?

If yes, do they have paths?

 

If no, why the hell are they?

 

Screenshot here

 

Is there something wrong here?

 

EDIT: I also see now that my map and minimap seem to be completely wrong, and the cars might follow the path of that. I'm going to do a complete reinstall.

 

EDIT AGAIN: I've identified the problem, and it's assured that the map itself hasn't been replaced. I see the level and roads, all the terrain are as they should be, but the map and the paths that the vehicles take are still that of an unmodded San Andreas. Why don't these files correctly overwrite?

[Blackadder.]

The Reason the Car Paths are still there is because Steve-M is still working on them. The Reason why the Mini-Map is the same is because they are still working on it.

 

Gforce: Hows your computer going?

[ReadMeMyMirandas]

@blackadder

Thanks, I really didn't know that. I just thought it was really friggin' weird looking.

[Blackadder.]

Your Welcome. Hey I'm gonna start a Lot now (My First Lot)

[Mark]

Oh btw you can get rid of those car paths by using the relevent thingy in this topic here and progress on the paths can be seen in this topic here!

 

I say there's no need for MCC too, just have a few led-bys, like nearly every other sub forum.

This happened to me sometimes whilst playing SA.

The main cause seemed to be CJ answering the phone whist under the canopy of the garage in San Fiero

I just put it down to not having the worlds greatest sound card.

Yeah. I'll smooth it. I'm going to use the Saint Marks technique.

 

 

Mamma mia!

[locO G]

Wecome back to Brownwater

 

 

These are not the finished textures. Trust me.

 

Here's another...

..and if you dislike the textures as much as I do, just look bottom right!

 

 

There's more...

Here's the latest from Gforce.

 

And if I'd got my finger out, 'Brownwater' would be front centre!

 

 

One more time...

 

 

Sorry for the super-large pics. I didn't resize/ re-host the pics and couldn't be bothered to create any thumbs.

 

There's more coming soon.

 

Stay tuned.

 

 

 

 

[BenMillard]

Wizkid4590, that looks a lot better now.

 

However, I think the long ramp might be a bit too wide; there's not enough space for parking on the main building. Also, the bridge between the two buildings looks a bit narrow.

 

There's a lot more space for the ground level spaces now, which is good. The texturing is excellent, too.

[wizkid4590]

I have made the long ramp narrower. But there is still not enough park space. However i can made the bridge between the two building wider.

 

Result:

 

Sorry for my bad English but i use an Internet translator. (I am 13 years old and has got 2 years of English lessons on my school )

[aad]

Im still thinking when i look at your lot wizkid are those parking spots on the roof needed for the final design, i should just change the ramp into a staircase and add some rails on the side with a alpha texture, and then just add some details on the roof like fans, airco, machines etc.

 

and since its a taxi central, why not remove the whole parking idea on the roof and make it one floor higher and add some small office bit, with some tables, computers etc just a small interior on top instead of those not realistic parking spots.

 

 

Good luck anyway i hope i can finish of my lot soon having some probs with some breakable glass and textures.

 

[lord fido]

Yo. I'm back for more. Still havent got the italian textures for my little italy lot.

 

Some pics for ya , so you don't die waiting. I've started smoothing the 2 closest buildings and i'm adding canopys , doors, windows , everything so it recreates Italy in just one street.

 

 

Remember the GTA3/LCS Chinatown fish market , that had a ped road that went inside Chinatown? thats what im making (but mine is italian).

 

I'm just starting so don't hope much of it yet.
