njr1489 Posted June 12, 2005 Share Posted June 12, 2005 As seen in the VC-MP, you notice that you pick peds in the game. lol I wouldn't mind seeing an old lady owning tommy with a spaz . SA has a whole bunch of them, but this time there are customizeable CJ's that you choose which clothes you want. The question is, what would you rather have? All the peds playable, or your own unique customizable CJ? I would really like to have them both, but I don't think it would happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
die Catalina die Posted June 12, 2005 Share Posted June 12, 2005 I want to see peds, come on now we've played with CJ for months now on the PS2 version(most of us) let the MP be a fresh experience. Theres a lot to choose from anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsuroki Posted June 12, 2005 Share Posted June 12, 2005 I'd say pedestrians for certain. Otherwise, you're likely to have a few odd encounters in-game. JohnnyNoxville123: Hey d00d wehre r u @?

Sobeit Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 well, i think it should be a server-side options, between Character select and load from save game. (load from save game is possible, dont discuss.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacob. Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Play as a ped - no player customization. Player customization is one of the biggest things in San Andreas, any multiplayer mod that doesn't syncronize it is out of their mind. It is a very important portion of the game, especially in a multiplayer mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_hat Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 depends on gametype. for ffa or the nonteam based gametypes i would suggest peds (or server side can pick). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njr1489 Posted June 13, 2005 Author Share Posted June 13, 2005 Customization should be a lot of what SA-MP is about. Customization is the key to making a good mod. Making things different by letting the people choose is great. I also think this would work well with gang wars. Ex: As seen in a few nice dress up CJ pictures, there could be robber CJ vs Pimp CJ wars fighting for some territory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingkdogg Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 I say the server side option to choose would be best since alot of people like to have gang/clan wars online and I think it would be cool if each gang could dress in a certain color like 1 was red the other 1 blue like crips vs bloods lol. But iit really wouldnt matter I guess whatever is easiest to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadeInThe80s Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Have the gangs. in LOS SANTOS you can play as any of the 3/2 avaliable gang skins from each gang, Families, Ballas, Vagos, Aztecas and the Cops each gang would spawn in their own turfs from single player and Cops would spawn at the station naturally. Even introduced some gangs that aren't in Los Santos to make it more diverse like use the biker skin to have a biker gang, bring in the Rifa, Triads, the Mafia, whatever problem you got here it's solved. Everyone being CJ would be boring imo. Non-main characters are better to choose from anyway since a main character is too specific and having everyone be a ped is more equal. Just load the gangs with certain weapons that fit their theme, that's all. Cops wouldn't carry around knives, the street gangs wouldn't run around with batons and the Mafia wouldn't be caught DEAD with a dildo in their hand. And how fun would it be if you have group of players under one street gang going against another gang, people could get full into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sobeit Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 (edited) A character's attributes can be specified in the server 'ini' file. no, stupid. load from a client-side file. because you will want to change your character, not have the server set it for you.. EDIT: and the server-side option to choose Peds/CJ would solve this problem.. Edited June 13, 2005 by Sobeit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drizz Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 I'd like to see customizable CJ. Like before u spawn, u can choose the shop you will choose clothes from and the clothes u will wear. and maybe also haircut. Or if its not going to be stupid Deathmatch mode, you could make clothes cost something. So in beginning u have like 500$ so u buy the most eazy sh*t, and if u make more money u can customize your CJ. Also an option of keeping same clothes after death would b nice.

EDIT: and the server-side option to choose Peds/CJ would solve this problem.. Think before posting, genius. Its not your decision how this mod will work, and even if it was on this subject, XcR would still have the better method. The server may set your character for you, but where do you think the server would your character from in the first place? Obviously the client. Example: Client tries to get a new haircut, sends haircut packet. Server does some hack-checking, accepts, writes to INI file, then sends back haircut confirmation packet. Client receives confirmation and changes your haircut. In my opinion, a lot of things should work this way. Its safer, more reliable, and more effective.
