The thread that started it all

[Craig Kostelecky]

The only files that are currently converted are the ipl, the waterpro, the cull, and most of the main.scm.

Thruout this thread!

sorry but some links are dead!You dont have to yell all i did was ask a question.I asked if someone could post the files that have dead links again.

[JackMagic]

I'm not bothered looking at the pic. Did you install the other updated files? Like the main.scm and so?

Where can i find the newest main.scm?

All GeoCities links should have been working. If it doesn't, wait an hour.

[spaceeinstein]

You know, you COULD be more specific next time you post. How does he know that the links were not even working? Who wants the job in testing links everyday?

[Newbie41]

I dont think you need it. I dont have it and it runs perfectly.Try copying the audio files from gta3 into the audiolc folder.it worked for me.Is there a trainer for gta:lc?

Could someone make like a vice city island for gta lc ?

It could have the malibu club and the police station and so on.

[Newbie41]

Are the pickups like the bribes gonna be smaller in the 2nd beta?In gta3 the pickups were half the size of what they are in vice city. Sorry that it is probably off topic.But I dont know where else to put it. Edited January 20, 2005 by newbie3951

[Duders]

why didn't you do that earlier? we wouldn't had to do all the paths if you did!

Well, hehe, when I just joined LC, I had next to no knowledge how things work. I would have never imagined that launcher would have turned out to be like that. Originally it was just modifying the executable with custom user folder! Then I started poking around with other things, code, maps, real memory hacking. By the time I got it all figured out, all paths were already converted.

 

By the way, how did you assign the last 3 parameters in the path nodes? Since they don't exist in GTA3, for now the converter just assigns defaults 0, 0, 1. Do you know what these values denote? According to the pinned topic in Maps forum, these values are still mostly unknown.

 

PatrickW, what's sdatax.dat? Where is this file located and what does it do?

[kid with the face]

hi im new to ths site so plz dont get pissed at me if i sound dumb but how u people doing this like the motorcycels and the solid gdost town and that stiff it looks aussem:)

[kid with the face]

im new to here and this is my first timw hering about this stuff about gta3 and vc together or w/e what do i need to download and i was wondering if i could download gta3 and vice city on computer cuz i didnt buy it so if sum1 can set me straight thnx i ahve aim my sn is yankeefan2005 im on alot so thnx:)

[Craig Kostelecky]

I'm guessing the sdatax are the files in the paths directory (train, subway, airplanes). Those have not been converted but they should be quick and easy to do.

 

Oh by the way. I just finished the scm. That's right all 66,000 lines of the code are updated for the new city location. It needs to be fully tested though. I played the first 2 Love missions and they lined up fine. I have noticed one problem though. None of the garages seem to work. The coordinates look right so I don't think that's the problem. Some help here from our coding experts would be appreciated.

 

Here is an upload of my moved files. Included in this package is my gta3maps folder (including an updated cull), the main.scm and scm.txt (I also included the original GTA3 code to check for mistakes). I've also included the original particle (so wakes work again) and the original 747 models. And finally, the new launcher files are included.

 

These files still need updating: paths, radar, navig.zon, and the dat files in the DATA\paths folder. There may be a few more things to move, but not much. Once these get moved, I'll upload another test beta. Then we can put the finishing touches on this thing and let the world see it.

[Craig Kostelecky]

You absolutely need to have a purchased copy of Vice City for this mod to work. A copy of GTA3 is also recommended (and it's necessary to get all of the audio). And all this mod does is convert GTA3 to Vice City's engine. Meaning you can play GTA3 with helicopters and motorcycles. We are not attempting to put the Vice City map into this game.

 

This forum is designed so a thread exists for almost any kind of topic. So please don't start new threads like this. If you're not sure where to post, you can always use GENERAL GTA:LC CHAT. Usually we lock topics like this, but I'm going to leave it here long enough for you to see it. Then I'll merge it with the GENERAL GTA:LC CHAT thread.

[MajorOutage]

I can't figure this out. The Z axis refuses to budge. I'm not even sure the X moved. But anyway, here's the flightpath files (with only the X-axis oupdated for now).

Here it is, a Full-Wing Dodo.

Actually, it's more like a Skimmer with wheels, working doors, and non-working flaps.

 

PS. If you want some color variety, feel free to copy the skimmer's carcol line to the rcbaron.

 

I also seem to get better handling by changing the column ae flags to 8040004

How did you get CJ into GTA:LC? the computer version is not even out yet.

[Y_Less]

The CJ .dff on SA is the same as the normal dffs, they didnt optimise it.

It still needed to be processed through blender so it has Tommy's skeleton rather than CJ. CJ is built up of many different dff files. (As per clothin)

[spaceeinstein]

Well, at least TRY to even take a peep in Rockstar's website! El Burro, Mihuel, Misty, Salvatore, Donald, Maria, Kenji, 8 Balls, Mafia, Asuka.

[Craig Kostelecky]

I'm still not sure who that dude in the brown coat is. It may just be a mafia guy like spaceeinstein said. But he's shown a lot in the GTA3 advertising, and he doesn't look like any character in the game.
