The thread that started it all

How do you add windshield breaking back to the game?

[Bobesz]

It's in the vehicle.col you have to define it there i think

[Duders]

Well, I tested the COL file and seems to work really well. I'll try to getr silver to get his ass on and to tell him.

 

*cough silver ass online cough*

[Craig Kostelecky]

You simply need to register for the message board to download the file.

It crashes my game

I guess it will wait till beta3?

I know how to install mods.

[Craig Kostelecky]

If you follow the instructions in the readme, it works fine. If installing that is an issue, I will most likely compile another test package once the sea floor is finalized.

[Mark Pagliaro]

Great I'll have to try it asap but have been really busy with school work and co-op. Thank you we needed one.

[Hammer83]

Didn't test it, but I want to add my vote for no collisions. The less collisions the better.

[Dirk Temporo]

Man, I haven't been here in a while...

 

Anyway, I downloaded the public release of the Beta V2. The game starts up fine and dandy, but when I go into the options menu, I experience the previously mentioned bug of the audio menu not being available. (I'm not sure if that was fixed or not)

 

Then, when I attempt to start a game (new or loaded), the game simply shuts down, and goes away. I go back to my desktop and it's as if nothing ever happened. This may have been adressed previously, but after reading through the pages, I haven't found anything on it. Any idea what's wrong?

[Samutz]

You need to copy audio from gta3 to your lc audio folder.

[Craig Kostelecky]

Plus there's still a lot of missing cols for the tall buildings that we need to take care of.

Yes, that's in fact a better idea. I remember when I used Admin Console ('cause I suck at flying the damn Dodo) and got on top of Kenji's Casino, then I found out that the "nice" corner in there isn't solid at all... I had a hard time trying to get out of there, but my fall afterwards was really funny... he he.

[Dirk Temporo]

So that solves the audio problem. But what about the whole thing just shutting down when I start a game? Will the audio transfer fix that too?

 

EDIT: Okay, I copied the files from the "Audio" folder in my GTA 3 folder, and put them under "audioLC", is that what you meant to do? If it is, the audio menu still doesn't work, and the game still crashes.

Thanks for the feedback everyone. The people have spoken, so the mod will remain flat and without collision. I actually agree with Dominionspy that having the ability to drive on the seafloor would be a nice feature, and it wouldn't cost much, just another ten ide/ipl/col entries, but it's not within the scope of the official mod so if I do it then I'll release it as an unofficial mod. But then you won't be able to drive on top of the tunnels!

 

And it sounds like there's no need to use other textures besides the sand, so the next version won't even need a TXD.

 

Nice screeny Craig; maps make it so much easier to communicate stuff like that.

[JernejL]

3. what is the best z value

any - just so the tunnels can't be seen?

 

[AzO]

Ok.. Enough off-topic.. Let's post some pictures... Here's some from me

 

 

 

 

[Mr Elan]

I have installed GTA Vice City (clean installation), GTA LC V1 and copied GTA LC Beta V2 files.

The game returns under Windows desktop after a few minutes of game.

This error message can happen 1 minute after starting to play or 30 minutes after :

Everyone(?) gets that problem. And it was stated somewhere not to post that. It looks like there's a problem with the main.scm.

 

That's my guess anyways.

[DarkGTA]

I won't be posting pics in a while seeing that I uninstalled LC.

 

 

I'll reinstall today and I'll post some more pics.

 

 

p.s, with no snow.

[liesofsilence]

i've had fun with the general lee

 

[Mr Elan]

And is it normal that when I press simultany UP + CTRL + Shif + 1 (look back) when I run a Delorean and a General Lee fall from the sky !?

[Mike]

And is it normal that when I press simultany UP + CTRL + Shif + 1 (look back) when I run a Delorean and a General Lee fall from the sky !?

Yep, that's a secret feature added in (You only need shift + look back)

Get in one and press the mission button for extra fun (Num +?)

[DarkGTA]

I'm having problems.

 

I load LC, and it works fine, now. When I load up my previous save game, it goes.. poof! It quits the game.

 

 

Could someone give me a idea why it's doing this.?

 

 

edit - now it's asking me for the vc disk. I've took out the VC disk and put it back in and it still asks for it.

That's an easy one to answer. Any time you change the scm your previous saves are no longer compatible. All of the variables that are defined in the scm are saved in your save file. When we change the scm, we change the number of variables. Meaning that when you try to load the old one, it won't match up with the current code and it will crash.

[DarkGTA]

So, I just start a new game?

[Craig Kostelecky]

Yup. Then it should work fine.

[DarkGTA]

Ok, I'll try that. Thanks.

now it asks for the vc disk when it's already in there.

You probably have a missing audio file then. To find it, go into the launcher's interface (clicking on the "Show Config" link should take you there). Then go to the audio tab and click the "Verify Paths" button. That'll check all of the audio files and it will see what (if any) are missing. That should help you out.

[DarkGTA]

AUDIO\WILD.ADF is missing.

 

 

edit:

 

I press restore to add it, then I press apply and start the game, but it still says "Please Insert VC Disk"
