[REL]GTA: Long Night

[ps2pro2]

INI FILE THING DOSENT WORK

[ps2pro2]

I FIXED THE GAME!!!!!!!!!!!! ALL YOU GOT TO DO IS INSTALL STEP 1 WITH THE MOD INSTALLER THAN AFTER ITS FINISHED AND IT SAYS (THE MOD IS NOT FULLY INSTALLED GO TO STEP 2) GO TO STEP 2

TAKE EVERYTHING INSIDE DATA FOLDER (EXCEPT: FOR HANDLING CFG.)(put that in after your done) AND PUT IT IN YOURE ROOT DIRECTORY GTA VC DATA FOLDER.

FOR THE REST OPEN EACH GTA LONG NIGHT STEP 2 FOLDER AND ADD ALL THE (CONTENTS) OF EACH ONE TO YOURE ORIGINAL GTA VC ROOTDIRECTORY. (REMEMBER I SAID "CONTENTS" DO NOT ADD EACH FOLDER ADD WHATS IN SIDE OF EACH FOLDER TO YOURE VICE CITY

FOLDERS).

 

 

I WAS KINDA IN A RUSH SO IF YOU DONT GET WHAT I SAID THEN PM ME

ILL EXPLAIN EVERY THING ITS VERY CONFUSING THOUGH FOR ME ANY WAY

 

and if it dont work i dont no what to say, but ill try some different methods on how to fix the problems

I got this and it works great. Awesome mod. The storyline is made out nicely. Keep it up! Any ideas on making one for SA .

 

Ps2pro2, Never, ever use caps on a post.

[ps2pro2]

sorry about the caps my shift buttons, caps, tab button etc. broke when

i tripped over the cord im a noob

 

 

 

anyone no how to pass the dirty laundry mission i cant get in the damn car with out the zombies pulling me out!!!!!!!

Edited August 6, 2005 by ps2pro2

[Tecate]

You're the one who didn't change out the handling.cfg for whatever reason. That's the file that controls the way cars handle/speed, etc. We tweaked it to give cars chutzpah. When you get in the car, drive in reverse.

 

If you're that sorry about the caps, edit your post. You're just polluting here.

nice mod from what i have seen, which has been limited to the first mission, i am gettn all of these 'Unhandled Exemption' thingos or somethin like that, any ideas? I can't pass the first mishy, if an answer has already been posted could u post a quote or something please

[Mikerush76]

this mod would be fantastic converted to san andreas, the fire effects are great, flaming zombies coming from burning buildings and stuff...

[Picallo RIP]

 

YO HELLFISH!!! I finally got THIS MOD!! IM SO FUBKING HAPPY!!...................................................................................................................... NOOOOOOOOO!!!! It asks to re-enter the CD! Does anyone have the no-cd crack for gta vice? please PM it to me or post it.. I already added the AudioLN to the Audio Folder and replaced the old stations.

[Tecate]

Bowdown, You probably downloaded an older version of long night from one of those megasites. Go to : http://hellfish.gtajunkies.com/ and download the Patch for Mission Crash.

 

Picallo, have you tried running from regular gta-vc.exe? Or doing the INI trick? If those don't work, google up a backalley russian site.

 

Everybody, please remember to floss and get plenty of sleep the night before a big test.

Hi everybody. I've been playing this mod for couple of days now and I must say I really enjoy doing this - it was fun to return to VC after almost a 1,5 year brake

 

This is my first post on this forum and I registered only to reply to this particular thread. First of all, thanks you both for doing the job, it is truly awesome, especially to an average gamer like me who has no idea about making any kind of modification

 

It struck me that all those people complaining about same things (cd error, hanging after 1st mission and so on...) must be either blind, lazy or stupid. IMHO it's not the last because it doesn't take much IQ to reread some older posts in an OFFICIAL thread concerning LN mod, does it?

 

However, I would like to point out that the one of downloadable versions of the mod (I think on http://www.gtajunkies.com/page.php?id=451 - the filename is gta_longnight.rar and it had 75,6 mb and I got in on 20th of July) is a bit confusing as in rar it includes two folders "GTA Long Night" and "GTA Long Night Final Patch" and you have to follow two sets of instructions (it's like installing two mods from separate installscripts) - this so-called Final Patch contains another main.scm and BMOTR and BMYPI files (both .dff and .txd). Is this normal? It may lead to some unexpected errors if a user don't follow both instructions as he would be missing these txd files - maybe it's the reason for some unhandled exception in previous posts? I mean, I downloaded another version from file-o-rama and all files were in one folder and you need only one installscript.

 

The other reason why I redownloaded the mod was that in previous one (the gta_longnight.rar) the LIPS.adf was broken and I couldn't extract it. This caused obviously not being able to listen to new vrock and also made the gta loader useless as it kept on asking me for a cd because I was missing one file he needed. Another possible reason for some of the cd errors people are reporting.

 

I checked the gta junkies and NOW their gta_longnight.rar is about 77mb (at least ff reports so) so maybe smn has changed the file and all my writing abovementioned is pointless but I still recommend checking the gta junkies version (I have a bad connection and won't dl such big files just for fun) as almost a month ago (on 20th of July to be exact) it was somehow broken to me...

 

Other than that I have no problems - now vrock is playing (extremely amusing i must say), gta loader works (finally the colours in the game were replaced, e.g. the menu is yellow - without loader it was still pink) and the game rocks. One thing though - I had to change the brightness on my CRT to 85% (from 65) as I couldn't see nothing Hope this does not bother you Just sometimes the game hangs after choosing the green "yes" but AFAIK only if I accidently press sth during loading the mission...

 

I like the missions very much, the difficulty is just enough Had no problems on gas run (3rd attemp was successful), great mission, cheated a bit with the burning hospital (sorry), but now I'm stuck with hellicopter. It's not the problem with the handling, but I cannot find all the zombies in time. I'm always stuck with two or one missing with 5 minutes left. Help! I know that one is always hiding behind the counter in jewellery store, one is in the record store, but there are no other hiding places I've found. Where should I look for them?

 

BTW a tip for everyone. When I didn't knew about driving backwards after getting into the car, the way I prevented being pulled out of a vehicle was that I ran fast in the opposite direction to the car with zombies following me, and then returned, which gave me just enough time to get into the car and drive away - I still use it sometimes with slower vehicles, or helicopters...

 

All considered, the job is amazing, as this mod really has the dark climate of a horror movie. The zombies models are awesome, and their falling from everywhere (buildings, etc.) was a great idea. I like also the sound when they bite you - a bit scary though.

 

Thank you again, and hope for some help with the hellicopter...

P.S. Sorry for this huge block of text, but I had to say all that

Hello, ive wanted to see the great GTA Vice City In my heart again and for modding i downloaded GTA Long Night. Ive Done Nearly All the problems and still i can not get this amazing mod to work, and would like help on this: I load the game off gta-vc.exe and gta-lc.exe at movies crashes. but on gta-vc.exe it works and gets me as far as starting New Game, it gets me all the way at the Process bar at bottom then when at the end of the bar it Bleeps and then the game crashes, then i cant play. no matter what i seem to do the game doesnt work. and would like it to, so please help. thankyou.

[TecStorm]

Hello, ive got a problem with GTA Long Night,

Ive Installed it with The Mod Installer for Vice City, and done the rest, and double clicking on gta-ln.exe doesnt work, but gta-vc.exe works, and on gta-vc.exe i can get to The process bar at bottom of screen after clicking on New Game.

then it just crashes and it gets annoying since it took my like 18 hours to download because my connect is really RUBBISH!!! and i would really like help on this, but getting Unhandled something lol. but thats all i get to and the game crashes and it sucks and i know the mod is good because ive seen lots of pics. but please e-mail on this. or email me at here [email protected] thnxz alot! bye

[X-boy]

Please help me, when I open the installer it will say a "handling error" so instead I extract the files and it will look like this.

 

http://img232.imageshack.us/my.php?image=gta0pn.jpg

 

I copied all the files on STEP2 folder into the main folder of Vice City. But where do I put all the .dff and .txd files?(So instead, I put all the .dff and .txd files in the main folder of Vice City just to be sure)

 

I tried deleting the registry file 1.00.000 but it didn't work and I also try not putting the AudioLC and I also try putting the real rockstar movies but it didn't help at all.

 

 

And when I opened Vice City and when the loading screen finishes it just crashes everytime I open it. I even try opening the gta-ln.exe but it says there is no CD in it, even if I have put the CD.

 

I hope they continue to make updates on Long Night(Vice City) so I can play it as well.(Farewell cruel world )

Tukan -

 

Newton, head honcho of gtajunkies, made that zip file before he provided our official hosting.

 

I've since made an updated, less confusing version - http://hellfish.gtajunkies.com/GTA_Long_Night.zip - I don't know if he's switched out.

 

As far as Hellicopter, have you checked the clothing store? If you have Albert run around the mall first, you can herd them into the same general area before starting up the RC Helicopter.

 

TecStorm, change out the AUIDOLC folder if you run from gta-vc.exe - Vice doesn't know what to do with it.

 

X-boy, the dff and txd files go into gta3.img and are installed through the mod installer mentioned in step one.

[X-boy]

My problem is that the installer won't let me install at all, if I open the installer exe it will say "unhandled exception" so instead I unzip all the files then I copy it to the GTA Vice City main folder.

 

Where is the gta3.img folder located, is it in the "anim" folder?

Edited August 11, 2005 by X-boy

[TecStorm]

Tecate its working now but theres no sound!

any ideas on why this is causing this. but i got it to work by taking the Audio file for GTA Vice City Out And add AudioLC In and changed its name to Audio. Also when you goto the Studio and you get that YES NO if i press a button the game crashes!

 

plz help

thnxz.

Edited August 11, 2005 by TecStorm

[Tecate]

X-boy, gta3.img is the big 600 mb file in the data folder. You'd have to download the IMGTOOL and manually replace them one by one. It would take a long time. Dropping the txds and dffs in the Vice City main folder does nothing.

 

TecStorm, go to our website and download the 'patch for mission crash' to resolve the yes/no problem. While you're there, check our installation FAQ for questions regarding the radio stations. You have to rename the files in AUDIO to original Vice names. Alternatively, skim through the rest of this thread.

[dodgeme]

WOW THAT WAS AWSOME 3 HOUR OF FIGHTIN UNDED ZOBIES DRY FOR CAPS LOCK BUT THAT SHOWS MY GRATITUDE TO THE MOD MAKER SO COOL any body having trouble with the mision thats a bitch about ramirez just save a game load it and try it again work for me

[X-boy]

I hope you update soon and make a new installer because I can't even open it without having the unhandled error. But the other GTA Vice City mod like Myriad City works fine to me.

[Tecate]

Well, you'd enjoy Myriad: Infected. Check out the official site and see if you can give that a whirl.

[X-boy]

I like Myriad infected but I have a small problem, how do I turn the normal peoples into zombies because the people attacking me is humans not zombies. Do you have a model or a skin replacement for Myriad Infected? If there is, can you give me a link.

[Tecate]

X-boy, you are not doing step one. Step one turns them into zombies. The dff and txd files are the zombies.

 

You need the GTA MOD INSTALLER

 

 

In other news, the 'insert cd' radio station bug is addressed

Here. They'll be able to tell you more about it than I can.

[bringerofblood2000]

I Love this mod, But Just Wondering....Will There Ever be a Long Night Mod for San Andreas? Cuz that would be pretty badass.....Like you'll be in the middle of the Woods then Boom! All these zombies are after you.....

[X-boy]

I "finally" got the Long Night Mod working, thanks Tecate for helping me. This mod is really good I finished the first stage and I am now on the stage where I talk to this girl who is telling a story about her hero.

 

I hope the Hellfish team continue to make another part of Long Night on Vice City because it's really great.

[Martoch]

Got the mod installer, no prob.

 

Went through the instructions:

 

1. Run the Gta Mod Installer and click the option that says "Install  a mod (with a script file) to GTA3 or Vice City." It should be the bottom choice. Next choose to install from a folder, again the bottom choice. Then choose the folder holding the files(GTA LONG NIGHT) and tell it to run the INSTALLSCRIPT_GTAVC.TXT.

 

2. When this is done, open the folder named "STEP 2", and add the contents to your GTA Vice City root directory (wherever GTA-VC.exe is located). After you do all this, the mod should be installed.

 

Just run the GTA-LN.exe, and enjoy.

 

When I run the GTA-LN.exe, a prompt asks where the GTA-VC.exe file is located (defaults to C:\etc..., I hit the browse button to point to the exact file on my PC, click launch:

I get the "GTA: Long Night" splash screen, then it tells me to insert my GTA: Vice City disc or press ESC to cancel. I already have my retail PLAY disc inserted and I've tried putting the INSTALL disc in, but then it says "wrong disc".

 

What can I do to fix this problem?

 

Thanks!

[stevenmiller6]

Great Job on the Mod! I am grateful for the hours of entertainment!

 

Problem:

Can't pass "Drop Dead Rush" (mission where plane drops dynamite on gang vehicles). If additional missions are *unlocked* by its completion, I would appreciated it if some kind soul would email me the save by 9-1-05.

[email protected].

 

Thanks!

 

P.S.

Are there any more mission markers? Found:

Pimp

Fat Albert

Smoker (used keycard to open cells down stair)

Hero (lady on couch)

Guard in front of Stage C

Guard in Shack

Woman in Bathing Suit (2 Piece)

 

That's a lot! Did I miss any?

Edited August 14, 2005 by stevenmiller6

[Tecate]

Steven, other than the naps you pretty much listed them all. Go stand on the bed in the studio with Fat Albert and the girlfriend. The only mission unlocked by finishing Dead Rush is the very last one - Sun Up.

 

Martoch, check the installation faq and the last few pages of this thread.
