The thread that started it all

[Gertlex]

couldn't that be fixed by just swapping the shotguns around in their slots and changing all of the pick ups? feel free to flame me if thats too obvious, I suspect Setphen Fry would bust my ass on QI for this comment!

It is pretty obvious. I thought of that while playing today. I haven't done any of the modding, so i don't know if it's been tried *shrug*

 

@Craig

I've been playing GTALC a lot today with the latest SCM and have had no major problems, certainly none of the old ones.

 

One new bug that I found is with the mission Dead Skunk in the Trunk. You retrieve a car and take it to the crusher, but are chased by two other cars. The easy way to do it is to pop the tires on the two cars (and even kill the guys while they're in the car. I've done it before. This time, after finishing the first car (tires and driver), i started on the second car and somehow triggered the pursuit, so I almost got run over before I got into the car to be crushed.

Yeah, it sounds like something was wrong with that mission for you originally - they're supposed to chase you if you shoot at them and hit them. I used to blow one car up with a shotgun, and then play chicken with the other one until I could get some shots off at it and blow it up too.

 

Craig, might I suggest making the tyres bulletproof and adding the "new" headshot opcode so the mission plays like it does in GTA3. That way, you can still blow the cars up, but the mission isn't made easier.

I wanted a port of GTA3 as pure as possible as the official goal of this project. Anything outside (like VC's feature, GTA3 XBox stuff, St Mark's Bistro, and LCS stuff) should be an unofficial add-on, not as a reward. Edited December 27, 2005 by spaceeinstein

Right, VERY VERY late (I said I would do this about a year ago), here is the code for BOTH cranes (once the car crusher code was done the EV code took a few minutes of copy and pasting and bug testing).

 

Full EV code (I fixed a bug in there too which was unapparent without the crane code - if you got back in the vehicle it wouldn't pick it up but next time would think it had done and count it as got, though you wouldn't have been paid). Note: this replaces the WHOLE thread:

Car crusher code, the cars are filtered so if it can't lift it it wont (according to which the 3 one could). I still just gives you an odd amount of money, if anyone can tell me how much it SHOULD give me that would be appreciated. This REPLACES the comments just above mission 0:

1. In Future updates i do wish to remove the some of the stacks of San Andreas boxes in the backyard, and replace them with a simple stack of boxes from LC... but i also wish to hopefully make some objects in the backyard damagable objects aswell, but i do not know how to add them. as for the peds in the bistro, it would be possible to create a ped path in the bistro to make them spawn... id have to look into it cause i dont know how to add paths as yet... as for the eating part... wed have to ask Y-less or someone else who knows how to code to look into how its done...

 

3. By all means he can look at the files, but again, dont know what the problem is

 

oh and one last thing My SA Banshee/PCj-600/Dodo mod for LC

isnt up on the first post

download link is still

http://www.fileplanet.com/dl.aspx?/planetg...%20and%20VC.rar

If you or one of the other led-bys could add it, that would be great, thanks.

[Craig Kostelecky]

2. Craig, is there any chance of the bistro (once it's finalised) making the official version of LC? I know that you'd reserved your decision on that earlier, and I was just curious to know your thoughts on it now.

I still have not seen it ingame (yeah, I'm lazy). So my decision is still reserved.

[Ben]

@silver - sounds good. I'm sure someone will help out with it. Thanks for the links too - I'm busy right now so I'll add it later.

 

@Craig - you are not lazy; you just don't have the time to do everything that people want you to do. I mean, seriously, look at everything you have done and are currently doing for this mod. I know you'll get around to it eventually...

 

EDIT - silver, nevermind - I've just done it. It should all be up-to-date now. I also changed [email protected] to NathanHenry to reflect his profile's name change.

Oh thank you benisablink182fan

[Craig Kostelecky]

Looks great so far Alex. I've got it all in my game right now and I'm trying to tweak the two missions that use it. You can see what I did by downloading my code. Note that I only updated the DBUG.scm and MAIN.scm.txt files. The rest are before the crusher was added. Once I get things finalized with this, I'll fully update those codes.

 

I added another variable to the code ($IS_CAR_PICKED_UP) as that state was required as well. I don't have the missions working perfectly yet, but I'm off to bed so I thought I'd upload what I have so far. Remember the two missions that use the crusher are The Crook and Dead Skunk in the Trunk. Both are set to start in the DBUG.scm.

 

And finally, what ipls do I have do disable again? I can't seem to find what you sent me before.

 

Oh, and I haven't looked at the EV Crane yet. But I'm sure that works fine as well.

[Konstantinos]

 

couldn't that be fixed by just swapping the shotguns around in their slots and changing all of the pick ups? feel free to flame me if thats too obvious, I suspect Stephen Fry would bust my ass on QI for this comment!

The stubby shotgun was used since it's the only one that fires 5 pellets, like the GTA3 one does. So yes, it's possible to swap it for the chrome (which fires 3) but that would be a not-so-elegant workaround. I'm sure the team will get it working properly.

 

 

Has GTA ever killed a player for falling from too high (with full health). I do remember that jumping off of a certain cliff on Shoreside Vale in GTA 3 automatically took away all of your armor.

Well, SA does that - falling damage does straight to your health.

I finally got my copy of that game and God - It's f*cking amazing! So expect me to neglect my LC testing duties for a looong time. Not to mention my college work

Edited December 27, 2005 by Konstantinos

I might want to restrict the Hunters like Vice City did. Currently, there's two that spawn in the city. I think I might have one unlocked after the Exchange and the other after 100%. Or I may leave it as it is so you can use it during some missions. I still haven't decided.

I'm repeating myself here, but I urge you to keep the hunter available before The Exchange.

One great thing about having helis in GTA3 is that they aren't just for idle fun, but give you new ways to complete missions. 'Marked man' is a good example - flying Ray to the airport, while laughing at agents guarding the lift bridge

Well, and 'Espresso 2 Go' is so beautyfuly done with a hunter - flying over Liberty, blasting Cuban coffee stalls with rockets. And there's probably a couple other missions (leftovers from 1st 2 islands).

Not spawning Hunter until final mission/100% would make it impossible. How about making it a 100 HP reward instead?

[bloodyskies]

wow, just tried both of the cranes and they look great, well done Alex. It's really odd, since I upgraded to the v6 test files, my game seems to be running a hell of a lot quicker, with better draw distances (and no I haven't changed the settings!) and less crashes..

[Y_Less]

Err, I would tell you which lines to delete, but I deleted them so heres my industNE.ipl file.

 

Edit: bloodyskies, you need to update the IPL files, you may have noticed double cranes as in the original the game manipulated static objects but we cant.

[bloodyskies]

I didn't notice double cranes, but I'll try replacing that ipl file now anyway and post an edit in a few mins..

 

EDIT: I don't know what difference that made, but it still works great with the new ipl file. I've done the Dead Skunk in The Trunk mission which plays out fine (didn't check to see if the opcodes for the tyres or head shots have been included as I normally park a car infront of the car over the road and blow that up from the roof, then shoot the other one with the Uzi) and I just came back to check who gives the other crusher mission to try that..

New mission error, unfortunately...

 

Grand Theft Aero (the mission after A Drop in the Ocean). Starts with a trip to Shoreside Vale airport, check for something in a guarded Dodo, then return to Staunton Island to the construction site. Problem is that the game crashes every time I attempt to return to Staunton Island. I've tried 3 times, once with flying, once with the bridge, and once underground. I don't have the error from the flying attempt, but the other two are essentially the same:

[Craig Kostelecky]

I don't think that I'm going to change Dead Skunk in any way. I think the player should be able to snipe the Forelli Bros. from their cars. There's no real reason why you shouldn't be able to kill them that way. You could blow up their cars with a rocket launcher in GTA3. So sniping them through the window seems like a good addition to the game.

[bloodyskies]

the only thing to consider is that if you snipe one of the drivers (definitely the one parked across the road rather than in the car park at least) then it doesn't trigger the other car to move, which taking a rocket launcher to either car does.

 

one slightly odd thing though - I realised after my last post that I'd never done any of the Marty Chonks missions - I actually had to find a walkthrough to tell me where to find them! Like a good woman (or your sister if yr from the South!) LC just keeps on giving..

[Craig Kostelecky]

I may have found the issue but I'm not sure. If you have MB for LC, open up the main.scm.txt file and goto these lines:

 

:LabelLC080BC700A5: $LC14484 = create_car 230 at 17.875 -308.25 21.75 00A5: $LC14488 = create_car 230 at 24.375 -307.188 21.75

 

And try changing it to this:

 

:LabelLC080BC700A5: $LC14484 = create_car #PANLANT at 17.875 -308.25 21.75 00A5: $LC14488 = create_car #PANLANT at 24.375 -307.188 21.75

 

Although even though it was using the wrong car, I don't think it should have crashed the game. I'll have to look into that mission more later.

 

EDIT: Even though that change should be made, I don't think that was the issue as I got a crash there as well. It was at a wait state in the code though. This may be tough to track down

Edited December 27, 2005 by Craig Kostelecky

[GTAThomas]

it doesnt have to be adf files i dont think. it could be mp3 files. correct me if im wrong.

[GTAThomas]

wow, this topic has been hot today! i have a comment on the falling damage. yes, one time i was playing SA, i went to the Tallest building (i dont know where at) and had a parichute(?), i forgot to open the chute and i fell and died, THE END.

and yes ben, i tested the new headshot code and it works great, the mission still runs the same as it did for me, i havent been able to recreate the crash so idk if its a change. but you cant shoot the driver now. so good news team

[GTAThomas]

silver? banned? nvm. those new links work great and i have gotten them ingame. i was looking for these actors a while ago...

 

EDIT by Ben - No. silver unbanned !

Edited December 28, 2005 by benisablink182fan

[GTAThomas]

i can test all those buildings if you want, i feel like ive been neglecting LC for the past few days, and the forum.

[Craig Kostelecky]

I forgot to mention, I checked out Asuka (in the Grand Theft Aero mission) and she looks good. Good work, silver.

[Ben]

That's fair. But, I think that perhaps that should be something unofficial - perhaps a different scm that's available to do that. Otherwise, the missions become too easy - as in your example of Marked Man. It kinda defeats the purpose of the mission.

 

Repeating myself - this impacts too much on how the game is completed, rather than just on general gameplay. I can see where you're coming from though, with the inclusion of more fun in the game

[Ben]

Oh - my VC radio station files are .adf files.

 

Yes, I think you might be wrong.

 

Or maybe I am...

 

I dunno, one of us is !

[Ben]

Thanks Thomas.

 

@Craig - I saw your post in the mission coding topic - fair enough with not changing the headshot for Dead Skunk. I can see your point. Discretion with these sorts of issues must be nice, but then there's the downside of pressure as well. It must be hard...

[Ryan_]

All the colfiles are basically complete now, a few things to touch up but done none the less. The surface types will need to be set once i have completed final adjustments. Once I am done, I will put up the files for testing. Here would be a good place to comment on bad collision data once the files are out. I am sure there will be some additional buildings for recoling, but the main bulk is done.

 

edit: i have the files ready, just sent then to y-less to host. thanks y-less.

Edited December 28, 2005 by Ryan_

[Craig Kostelecky]

The VC radio stations were in adf format. The GTA3 ones were in wave format. The launcher can be configured to read either format (or even mp3s).

[Ben]

Oh yeah, of course. Stupid me ! I forgot that you could change the path of the radio stations in the launcher. So, even if you did have an mp3, it'd still work. Der Ben!
