The thread that started it all

[~tibs~]

ive tried many downloading many installers and my computer errors tha downloads out for some reazon, can some one PLEAZ put ur text and txd files on here????

[Hammer83]

Okay everytime i try and go to the Staunton save point the game freezes. What the hell.

It seems that you do not have audio installed properly. The game probably hangs when trying to play closing doors sound, which is either DOOR_1.WAV or DOOR_3.WAV, I forgot. There are a couple of reasons why that might happen:

-1. You do not use launcher to run the game

-2. The launcher somehow failed to update the exe properly

-3. You downloaded the corrupted archive and the audio folder was not present in the installer.

 

Solutions:

-1. Use the launcher

-2. No solutionto this one unfortunately. My launcher is screwed up.

-3. Redownload and reinstall LC.

Another screenie...

Here's another idea from me: If someone starts making interiors for various places, you could use some Vice interiors in LC... maybe retextured or something. Sex club seven could use the interior of the strip club in VC... maybe you could have a marker at the bar that gets you drunk... I'd love to drive around Liberty drunk

Here's a new one that nobody's found out yet (I had to turn the hidden package cheat off to find it)

 

When you get 30 packages it says it delivers the body armour to your hideouts. But the pickups given at 30 packages are the grenades.

My site is down until further notice, and unfortunately, I will be unable to continue mirroring the full package.

 

It seems I owe them $$$ for going 25 gigs over my bandwidth limit.

What else has to be done besides moving all the coordinates? Do the DFFs have to get converted to the Vice format? And does the same apply to the textures?

 

Like Wolly said, the TXD's and DFF's don't need to be converted, but there's plenty of other issues to deal with:

 

1. the generic.txd from gta3 was renamed gtaiii so the ide's need to be updated

2. even though the 2dfx lights worked with the original version of GTA:LC, they aren't working for me now...

3. the maps folder is now the gta3maps folder. That's just one reason to update the old readme's.

4. new object limits are popping up that were not an issue with the original version of GTA:LC.

5. correct me if I'm wrong but Smither's tool forces you to change each line individually. Regardless, nothing happens when I click the "set" buttons so it doesn't work on my computer which means I needed moomapper to update the ipls but moomapper crashed with the stunt park loaded so I needed a work around for that...

 

bottom line is: why make every person who uses these mods together have to sus these things out. Better to have one person do it (me) and then get that information to the public. Sound good?

 

edit: got the highway convo out:

edit: thanks WHAT. I guess we can let this thread die now. All future discussion of GTA3 mods converted to GTA:LC should be directed here:

 

http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=134874

 

edit: on the other hand, if there is a future for car paths on the highway, then this thread could be usefull for that.

[WHAT!?]

Sounds good, but I feel a little guilty.

 

I really apreciate you hashing out all of these problems. If there is ever anything I can do for ya consider me in your debt.

 

- Same goes for Demarest and the GTA:LC team.

[ModelingMan]

Is the list in the second post of this topic the current car list?

Edited May 27, 2004 by ModelingMan

[Craig Kostelecky]

Yup.

[ModelingMan]

Well I have another addition. People are asking for car lists so they know what cars they can replace. Maybe put a link to the verhicle topic in that question about the car modding.

Updated

 

Instead of posting updates you would like to see in the FAQ do what I stated in the first post "PM me with the Q and A"

[G®€€n Lan†€®n]

Well in my latest pics im posting my last attempt to make FNF cars look good in LC. The rest is my killbill style sword fight with the cartel. Then a cool pose of my version of fido with a shotgun.

See all of the converted mods here (with pictures)

 

This topic is for discussing old GTA3 mods to be installed in GTA:LC. I just finished putting together two such convos.

 

Ultimate Stunt Park by ODIE

 

and

 

Intercity Highway by ODIE and illspirit

 

These files are availble from gta.mods4us.net. Login, goto the downloads, and click Main : Modifications : Map Mods : GTA:LC maps.

 

On my computer I can actually load both mods at the same time using the safe installs (no 2dfx, no extra stunt park objects). Here's a screeny:

 

 

plenty more at this address:

 

http://www.gta.mods4us.com/modules/gallery...bumName=album15

 

 

Here's the issues I've had to deal with so far when converting these mods for use with GTA:LC:

 

 

1. the generic.txd from gta3 was renamed gtaiii.txd so the ide's need to be updated (change generic to gtaiii)

2. even though the 2dfx lights worked with the original version of GTA:LC, they aren't working for me now...

3. the maps folder is now the gta3maps folder. That's one of the many reasons to update the old readme's

4. new object limits are popping up that were not an issue with the first version of GTA:LC

5. correct me if I'm wrong but Smither's tool forces you to change each line individually. Regardless, nothing happens when I click the "set" buttons so it doesn't work on my computer which means I needed moomapper to update the ipls with the -350x change, but the ped path caused moomapper to crash... fun troubleshooting work

 

BIG QUESTION: Why does the game crash after loading the 2dfx lights?(it's because there's too many - duh)

(they worked with the first version of GTA:LC)

[Mega]

simple question? what is to be done when you want to "activate" the 24 cars?

i know there is a coding part (because they will not appear) but is there some more manipulations to do?

Hmmm... Newb at modding cars? Change the class of the cars in the default.ide into normal.

THX

yea... a newb in modding. I thought it only changed the way the cars appear (eg: replacing "poorfamily" by "richfamily") but i did not know it

thx again

[GTA3Freak-2001]

Nice work, its great to see someone working on coverting much loved mods from gta3 into GTA LC. I can't really help you with the technical side as I am a user of mods rather than a creator if you know what I mean.

 

BTW the links you posted are the same, might want to change that.

I never used the highway in my version of gta3. (i never knew such a thing existed as i had no use for mods other then realgta)

 

Does it have flowing traffic on it? I wouldn't be all by myself would i?

 

[G®€€n Lan†€®n]

I had a problem loading gta: LC after i installed something that would change the background at the main screen. But i fixed that.

 

But now everytime i load a new game, or a saved game..the game just exits out for some reason. I dont know why. Please help.

not that i know of the version i played didn't but there is the highway patrol station and McOdies

@jcab:

Can you give me your IDE file of the Stunt-Park? 2 months ago I have found a way, that the Moo Mapper didn't crash, but you must give me yozr IDE-file of the Stunt-Park.

[Pierce Brosnan]

Good screenshots G®€€n Lan†€®n, great to see ten pages of this.

 

.:Z:.

[jcab42]

I just checked it. It turned out to be the ped path ODIE put in the original file.

[G®€€n Lan†€®n]

Pierce, i know you want to take some screenshots of LC. So heres what you have to do.

 

1.) Make sure you have the PC version of Vice City.

 

2.) Download and instal LC.

 

3.) Go here: http://www.freeload.de/download/16387/Util...e.Plus-2.9.html and download clipcache.

 

4.) Anytime your playing GTA: LC and think you see something cool make sure you have clipcache open and running. And while your playing just press the print screen button. (the one that says prt sc, or printscreen.)

 

5.) Go upload your pics to a picture uploading site. http://www.7uh.com/uploader/index.php

 

6.) Post your pictures here in the topic.

 

There, thats all you need to post pictures.

[G®€€n Lan†€®n]

Yeah.. But no traffic That kind of ruins the whole point. Plus, if my car blows up im basically stranded in the middle of no where until i find an exit.

[Opius]

Don't even try to convert my archipeligo. It's a mess. I made it through my "I'm-too-cool-to-use-primatives" phase, and as such, the entire thing is poly modelled, meaning the normals of any given polygon will be random.

 

See?

 

But if you want to try, you're more than welcome to.

 

That is all.
