*drools*

 

I have downloaded it and played it.

 

KICK ASS

 

I've converted the radio stations and all that stuff, and got the police station converted too.

 

Any ideas if the peds will look and sound the same in GTA:LC as they did in GTA III in any future releases? And what about missions? Just wondering but either way this mod rocks .

[spaceeinstein]

Yea you host it. I already hosting my huge audio files.

I feel confident in mine:

Hey you stole my mojo, no seriously that is fantastic d8cam you really create the same sort of look that is on the original GTa3's game box.

[Hammer83]

The Mafia car has 1 exhaust pipe but exhaust comes out of 2 places still.

Amazing! How did you notice stuff like that!? Those kind of small details always escape me.

 

Sorry for offtopic.

Im on a laptop right now. Its a Nvidia GF4 420 Go.

thats exactly what I have(plus the laptop), what are you display settings set at(for GTA and desktop), I can only get a resolution of 720x(whatever it is)x16, I'm going to have to check the antialising settings.

[Craig Kostelecky]

Our goal is to get this as close to GTAIII as possible. That incudes peds and missions. Those two things will take a while however.

[kazuki]

so is the minigun and the chainsaw gone from LC? if so that'll be ashame

[Craig Kostelecky]

They're still there, it's just a little tougher to get them. You'll either have to modify the scm, or use on of the cheats to get those two weapons.

[GTA3Freak-2001]

i wuz jus flyin around in the hunter, any possible way we can make it fly higher? cuz when u go to shoreside vale, u can barely fly around because shoreside is so high, and so many buildings in staunton are way to high to fly around with...

 

any possible mod?

Ah yes I noticed that too, although I thought I heard its not possible as it messes with the handling too much or something, I am not sure but it really needs to be higher.

[StuntGames]

my desktop resolution is set to 1024x768x16

 

I have made it so that all of anti-aliasing is turned off. No programs can control it.

 

I have also set my pc to be performing at the best performance. You can do this by right-clicking on my computer/properties/advanced/performance settings/"adjust for best performance"

 

Once you do that try going into gta. Once I did this I can run LC 1024x768x16 max or 800x600x32 max.

[Mark Pagliaro]

Sorry I have been getting alot of work full-time work hours so I haven't done anything yet. Thursday is the only day this week I have off. I'll update this thread then. I'll try to get some of my peds in too. MM great job/work.

 

I have not fogotten!

[kazuki]

i'm glad they still exist, its all that matters. the thought of chainsaws n miniguns being gone is simply unbareable. whats the weapon cheat anyways?

[Tec_Nine]

This mod is awsome. I have been playing it for hours.

 

Well, Im new here, and I have a question...or sort of a request.

 

I was wondering if someone can make blue(NYPD Color) versions of the SWAT van, police car, and the AI Police Heli.

 

I have tried changing the colors on the SWAT and police car, but they don't work. If someone does this, It will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

[kazuki]

question. has anyone tried driving boats yet? the splashes u make from speeding boats r not there, or is it just my machine?

2ndly remember the glitch where u can see tunnels underwater? well whenever i drove a boat by them, i seem to fall into oblivion or onto the tunnel itself unless i drive fast enough so the boat would fall n slowly float back to the surface.

another thingy is that gta3 unique jump point problem is back and its so annoying..... whenever u fly a plane over it, u automatically n immediately switches to stationary camera, n u can't see where u're going until u hit solid objects or die!!!! then u finally go back to normal camera mode... however helicopters don't seem to share that problem... that problem was never there in vice city.

[TriP ChoikkeR]

kazuki, i just had that problem in my helicopter.

[LeaThaL]

hey "HellZ",

 

i had the same thing dude, do you get problems with any item that has alphas like the police logo on the police car? cause i did, all i did was re-install directX 9 and that totaly fixed it so just get it from microsofts site,

 

and now for some bugs i have found,

 

1. Directly infront of the police car in shoreside vale there is a few pollies or something missing but when you look thew it it goes straight threw anything really, and you just see the ground thew cars, bikes and anything, and there is a few more laying around above the ground just near the road also, its just some transparency probs but theres no .col for it so its ok

 

2. at kenjis sisters aparptment the banshee and the landstalker will ramdomly spawn even when the cars have already spawned, cause i had one spawn on me and kill me, lol

 

and part from that, you have all done a funking good job guys,

 

[GTA3Freak-2001]

Ah yes the thing about the spawning cars has happened to me all over the place, in greasy joe's carpack, staunton hospital carpark and various others. I had come past greasy joe's and ended up coming back past it and suddenly I hear boom and see a packer spawning on top of another packer.

[GTA3Freak-2001]

Sorry to double post but here are some more screenshots although if your on 56k you may want to leave this topic as I've done quite a few shots.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ok I'll stop there, I'll just put the others in link form ok:

Shoreside Lift Bridge

I have no clue whether I made it to the credits screen as this and only this d/l package cannot be d/l with a download manager, since I am on 56k and my connection cuts off after 2hrs I am no longer well atm able to help out with the mod, any any small way. Im trying to get something sorted for the monet. But it is something to do with the download that a d/l manager cannot be used not my connection.

 

So if you are on 56k the only way to d/l this mod would be to leave your internet on for around over 4hrs and do it all in one go, unfortunately this is impossible for me.

 

Keep up the good work guys, jus a question the credits screen is this when exiting the game or just in the readme if its in game can someone take a screeny of it. I better go check if there is already one.

[GTA3Freak-2001]

Here you go GT1 and yes you are on the outro page

 

Outro Screen

[rallysiim]

Wow, this looks so old skool lol, I miss the good ol' Libery

 

offtopic: the tunnel near the observatory, is it possable to make that mountain full 3d and make the tunnel to connect vice?[/red]

[Demarest]

Okay guys. I've all but decided yes on this, but thought I'd post/enquire just the same. Why the insanely short deadline, I'm not sure, but...

 

Hi, I'm an assistant editor for PC Gamer magazine. We'd like permission to distribute GTA:LC on our CD that will accompany an upcoming issue. Please get back to me asap, since I need an answer by this Thursday. Contact me by email at [email protected] Thanks.

 

D.J. Stapleton,

Assistant Editor, PC Gamer.

Until it is released of course, we cannot be certain that this is not a hoax. However, this would be exposure beyond anything I've heard of for ANY GTA mod to date. This level of exposure would of course overrun us. Overrun with interest and/or talent to contribute as well as overrun with the usual "why don't you add this?" questions we've had to field 100 times. What do you guys think?

[Mark]

R0x0rz Now i only need to buy Vice lol

[GT-1]

It is not possible to put VC and LC in the same game. Questions should be asked in the help topic to keep this tidy, thanks for adding me to the team list, im sure I will get something sorted in the end. Well hoopefully. Seems like there is massive intrest in the mod, which is great.

[Mark]

Well its a Beta its not quite there although i'm not in the project i say tell em to add a lil column in their mag about an up-and-coming version in their CD sometime thats my shiny 5 penny coin

[Demarest]

@GTAuron: That's a good point. Keep in mind that development of this will no doubt be long standing. Putting the word out COULD potentially recruit additional talent to help accelerate our cause. I know Aztlan and madman have both spread the word on other forums as well.

[GT-1]

I laos think that this COULD be a good idea, the forum would have to have a few more-led bys and things but people are always willing.

 

A very direct appraoch for rules in the forum should be made, but I think it might be a good idea, although it could cause alot of trouble around the forum like you said. Hopefull this is not a hoax and its all good.

 

It would make life much easier for the 56k users who contribute or follow the mod.

[killer.ip]

That's news beyond our wildest dreams... and I'm hoping it's not a hoax. If it turns out to be true we should really let them have a set of files as up to date as possible, after all there have been a few updates since the release, several important bugs have been squashed in that short space of time.

 

This can only be seen as being a good thing, after all we're putting this mod together for people to play... this is going to make sure everyone get's to do just that.

[Demarest]

LC's vision for starters is a port of GTA3. GTA3 had no minigun or chainsaw. VC's cheats are beyond the scope of this forum. Thank you for helping us keep our workspace clean
