DJDJ Posted January 3, 2005 Author Share Posted January 3, 2005 (edited) <Update> Been a bit quiet lately with christmas and new year. Also i suffered a .img corruption and had to reinstall. Being unable to mod with the team i have put together an inventory and began working on a zip/rar file. This is looking unlikely to be finished, due to a lack of coding ability and other problems. I have retextured the NP mall malibu club and mansion - see below. As reasurance, a beta WILL be released, thoigh it may lack the coding magic.

DJDJ Posted January 12, 2005 Author Share Posted January 12, 2005 if this isnt continued, i will continue with a texture conversion (semi w/e) and release what i have. If it IS continued, we will need to find a good coder and sum1 to make peds and cars drive around... dont worry dude, u can get something..

CFX Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 well, as a member of the team, I should point out that we haven't heard much from you either, DJDJ. I certainly wasn't sent a christmas card. Seriously though, it seems odd to call this mod a dead duck so early on. It's really not even a partial conversion yet. In fact, it really isn't anything yet. If you're itching to release the texture replacements then just release them as 'DJDJ's Texture Pack' instead of calling it GTA: Vendettas .... as if you had a vendetta against the original textures.

DJDJ Posted January 13, 2005 Author Share Posted January 13, 2005 (edited) i was just getting paranoid coz a previous mod i was part of failed. If everyones still in, we'll continue, however the old problems need to be addresses (coder thing) good point, i tend to be online (msn) from 6-7 on mon-thur (footie training on fri). If anyone can offer private webspace for our own mini forum, please let me know and u can join or w/e GTA: Vendettas Rises out of the ashes and lives once more!

CFX Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 In response to the request for a feature like being able to do you're own spray painting, I think GTA is alot less open ended for those kinds of features compared to games like Half Life 2 that supply people with entire sections of the games code to be altered for all kinds of experimentation. It could probably be done in a very crude way in GTA, but the amount of effort vs how well it would work may not be worthwhile. Because GTA San Andreas has better weapon handling than GTA3 or VC, attempting such a feature is probably best left to waiting for GTA SA for the PC. And the most obvious thing you'd be able to change right off the bat is the graphic that CJ actually places on the walls when he spray paints.

CFX Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 In response to questions about a release date, DJDJ has mentioned easter as a potential target for a beta, though the team hasn't yet established or discussed a minimum set of goals that we'd want to have met by then. I'd like to point out that June is when GTA SA comes out for the PC. This is only two months after easter. My honest assumption is that interest in GTAFORUMS.com will spike considerably when GTA SA comes out, and at that point most GTA VC mods will either be abandoned or begin to port over to San Andreas. It will literally be a matter of sink or swim. Did you all get the play on words? hows that for dry humor? (VC=sinking) (SA=swimming) I crack me up. Who will want a VC mod when an SA mod offers SOOOOO many more possibilities? My suggestion to the team, as a team member, is that we design GTA Vendettas with an eye towards ultimately switching over to San Andreas. In which case, a beta is likely to be the only thing we make for Vice City. And if we honestly make a good beta, then we will most likely entice alot of newly enthused GTA modders to help with a San Andreas version of GTA Vendettas. Ya know what I mean? What do you think team? Or have I spoken out of turn? Am I being smart or crazy as a bat in a tin sh*thouse. You be the judge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJDJ Posted January 17, 2005 Author Share Posted January 17, 2005 although i doubt SA will run on my pc, its worth a shot. But saying noone will want to play vc when sa is out - what about myriad? doubt thatll fail. its an idea, and a good one, although i fell will be alot harder. worth considering, mind. Beta - yeah hopefully easter. I have changed the story to eliminate the confusing complexivity.... Some private webspace wuld be good (sum1 said this B4) any offers? Smart or crazy...we;; considering my story, im the latter....A spot of Crazyness is good coz itll push you right to the edge. Id say both, like me lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure that if it does not change, SA will wipe the sh*t out of it. It was a really good start for a mod though. As is yours... -Mercie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercie Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 Haha, I just meant Myriad is not thriving like it used to. There are still have the lots left and yet another island comming. The last car for Myriad was made over a month and a half ago... No harm done, and Odie can only make so many buildings... Yet he is still great, don't get me wrong... -Mercie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GT-1 Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 The last car was made about 2 weeks ago, if you looked around you iwll quickly be proven wrong. Every huge mod like that is going to be slow, do you seen any other TC's including this one with as much done as Myriad. No! Which proves a point... Anyway let these guys get back on topic, its there topic. Myriad discussion goes in Myriad suprisingly. Btw you should search the forum for free hosting, there are many out there which could be suitable for your needs depending on what you want.

CFX Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 So I see that the number of replies in the vendettas thread has jumped from 102 to 107, and I get all excited, only to find out it's 5 replies about myriad island. From what I've been reading in the actual Myriad Islands section of this forum, making the switch to SA is on alot of people's minds. I haven't been a witness to the history of GTA editing, and how many projects have come and gone, but it seems as if Myriad Islands has been like a 'school of hard knocks' that stands out. That is to say, even if it were to never be entirely finished, the experience and research that has come out of it will be a major addition to GTA editing for a long time. It seems alot of people have sharpened their teeth working on Myriad Islands. Definitely more than just a 'good start'. Now back to talking about GTA Vendettas... which after 108 replies, doesn't really have much of a start at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CFX Posted February 4, 2005 Share Posted February 4, 2005 Currently, there is no working version of GTA Vendettas, and so of course, there is no file size to speak of. Though I would expect a completed 'Total Conversion' Mod to weigh in at around 80megs and up. I think I remember GTA LibertyCity being around 60megs for just the city (no replacement of vehicles or pedestrians). As DJDJ has stated, there hasn't been much progress lately... things should pick up soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJDJ Posted February 4, 2005 Author Share Posted February 4, 2005 I have been busy making a simpler story line, a much more plausable one. Plus ive been packaging together what i have, in a zip which will be the final release - so we can keep track of whats done etc. Apart from the usual texturing work theres not much more i can do untill our "mappers" get to work. release date now moved back from easter, im guessing late summer '05. THE DOORS ARE STILL OPEN TO ANY MORE MODDERS....just PM me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
