Smo_Oth Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Sup dudes need help with the IFP I mean the new IFP for GTA SA so can anyone say how i can (wot the f*ck is that i hear i can change the ANIMATIONS=? that would be cool =) i would like to change THE BYCEL ANIMATION or,....walking so anyone knows how i can do it!!! : PLEASE HELP ME GUYS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ModelingMan Posted January 19, 2005 Author Share Posted January 19, 2005 i would like to change THE BYCEL ANIMATION Not possible right now since the animation format of SA is completely different from VC and GTA3. It'll be a while before someone figures out the format, and will actaully make a viewer/editor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ModelingMan Posted January 25, 2005 Author Share Posted January 25, 2005 when u reales a new model MODLINGMAN=? Not really a question that I can answer at the moment, pretty soon I'll not have as much time as what I do now. I don't know if this comes in any use or not but..... linky Unfortunately it won't work since the CJ models have more bones than VC and the animtion format is different, thanks for suggesting it though.

fivesballs Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 Yes hi i am new . I dont want to bother anyone but i have a couple of problems and was looking for some suggestions.I have been trying to replace my Player.dff file with the one that comes in the Zip (With the IMG tool) but it says that the size is too big. I noticed that the original file is 86kb and the Player.dff file in the Zip is 147kb . (CJ Model/vest) When i try to replace it it says "File size too big " When i simply try to delete the original Player.dff file so i can replace it ...it says" File might be in use exiting" Now the game in not in and obviously i'm not currently playing. I've tryed un-installing and re-installing and to no luck and i really would'nt know what else to try ...So thank you in advance for any help or suggestions you might have ...Thanks I also wanted to say that i fowlled these steps from an earlier post exactly... INSTALLING CUSTOM PLAYER MODEL 1. Go to "Rockstar Games" folder (Default path DRIVENAME/Program Files/). Right-Click and go to "Properties" then uncheck "Read-Only" box. When the popup appears, make sure the "Apply Changes To This Folder, Subfolers And Files" bubble is marked, then click "OK". 2. Once it has finished applying attributes to all files/folders. Continue to the "Models" folder. Once there double-click "GTA3.IMG". 3. Click "Edit" from the top menu, when the drop down menu appears click "Find", type "Player.DFF" (Minus quotations). 4. Once it has found player.dff, delete it. 5. Now, click "Commands" from the top menu. Once the menu appears click "Add". Now continue to the path of the file. Then click "Open". Ok, this is dumbass proof! If you can read YOU CAN! DO THIS! Do not post asking for help anymore! Well i can read but to no luck so again thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lexicon Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 I have a question for Modellingman (or anyone else fit to answer it for that mater) Are the contents of the Skin Generator all of the textures in the SA player.IMG? I've started a fairly ambitious skinning project and would like to know what else (If anything) I need to take into account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gta Master. Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 the skins dont work for me cuz it looks like theyre the wrong layout or somethin cuz when i put them in my game his face is like on his ass and its all screwed up .:GTA MA$TA:.

Lexicon Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 You're probably putting them on the wrong model. The t shirt and wifebeater models have different skin layouts. Look at the included BMP's to see which goes with the skins you're trying to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ModelingMan Posted February 1, 2005 Author Share Posted February 1, 2005 Are the contents of the Skin Generator all of the textures in the SA player.IMG? I only included the textures that would fit onto the Base5 model, so no, not every texture is included. How do the tattoos work? SA uses a new alpha system, here is an example. The texture on the left is found in torso.txd and the middle is vest.txd, SA takes the vest texture and merges it with the torso texture like so: Tattoos will also work the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexicon Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 Thanls Modellingman and Grove st. Gunna, that really helpful. I know this is afairly hefty request, but do you think you could somehow get me the TXD's from the Player.IMG? I'm aiming to completely retexture Carl and would like to be able to release it shortly after S.A.'s P.C. release. Thanks for your time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOMB-8-Ball-BOMB Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 Im running a P4 with a GeForce 4 with 512mb ram and this mod works perfectly on it, Im also prettey sure I aint running the latest drivers coz Im a sod for not updating this thing I call a pc.lol Daft question but has any of you tried refeshing the img file?? or made sure that vice city is the only main prgram your running coz it could be that summut is using all your memory up on your pc causing the game ta glitch. Just a though Im not all that clued up on pcs.. Hope ya all get it sorted tho This is a great mod the chest seem a little too long imo but I dunno. BTW Whens the next model due? Heres a little summut for ya Might do a new one soon I dunno The t-shirt is based off a t-shirt I bought from a Pitchsifter gig I just love what it says lol. Heres another for ya I was bored n decided ta cut n paste Cash from manhunt onta this model came out pretty good could of been better if he was completly bold but nevermind. Any requests? Just PM me and Il TRY and get back to ya tho I must warn ya Im a very busy man. It hard being married with two kids and wanting ta grab a coulpe of hours on the pc. To Me This is the best skin bar far in my opinion not only does your cj look pissed in that skin but his shirt says all and your cj actually would beat my cj's a$$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ModelingMan Posted February 2, 2005 Author Share Posted February 2, 2005 I know this is afairly hefty request, but do you think you could somehow get me the TXD's from the Player.IMG? To download this you must use IE and install the download applet from the site (there is no adware, etc.): http://download.35mb.com/jamesc05/PLAYER.rar how do you know of this please tell me it? do to the fact it is a big part of the mod me and my team are working on i would like to know. i been wondering if anyone has any info about the animation for san an. kam the dude that was working on the animation importer/exporter when i asked him he didnt say anything back. please if you know anything please tell me. thanks you mention more bones you know if we can manualy make the animations with all the proper bones in max and imput them in to the game? If you want to put new animations into SA, or convert them from SA to VC then it's not possible, as I said the format is diffrent and also unknown. It's also not possible to create custom bones since the bone matrix format is unknown. Did anyone manage to get the textures for the SkinGen before the links messed up? There is nothing wrong with the links, if you right click and choose either "Save Target As..." or "Save Link As...", depending on your browser, you should be able to download them no problem.
