[REL|1.01] Caprice Release!


DexX

Recommended Posts

No bullsh*t, this is long overdue, so i'll cut to it;

http://www.tjbp.net/dexxhole/caprice_101.rar

 

 

1996 Chevrolet Caprice v1.01

All materials (model, textures, collision, data files) ©2005 ashdexx/DexX. Chevrolet, Caprice, Impala, the logos associated imagery and likeness rights all belong to Chevrolet/General Motors Inc.

 

This .rar file and its contents may NOT be used for any purposes other than playing in GTA:San Andreas on the PC.

 

You do NOT have permission to redistribute or edit this file or its contents in any way shape or form, at any time, from now until the end of time, throughout the known and unknown universe.

 

"Hello ashdexx, may i host your <whatever> @ my website?"

No. due to the high level of theft and unscrupulous people in the gta modding community, i've decided to retain explicit control over the files. It (this file + contents) may not be hosted anywhere else at all. If someone claiming to be me says you can, its a lie. Punish them accordingly.

 

"Hello ashdexx, may i convert your <whatever> to <non-SA game>?"

No. But, point me in the direction of the game, preferably modding forums and/or tools for it, and chances are i'll do it myself.

 

Changes since 1.0:

-updated materials for grill, and undercarriage to reduce amount of shine and/or chrome

-fixed headlight transparency issue + material

-all transparency issues should be sorted (object and material reordering in Max)

-general material tweaking overall

-corrected location of exhaust upgrade piece

-added "carmods.dat" line (see below), which will tell the game what parts can be used correctly (not all parts are supported).

-Appropriate color information has been added for the carcols.dat

-Collision has been updated

-unused textures removed from txd. wheel texture resized from 1024, to 512.

 

Installation Instructions:

replace the existing premier.dff and premier.txd files in your gta3.img, with the ones i've included and rebuild the archive (img). If you wish to replace another vehicle, simply put this over THAT one, instead of premier.

 

Handling Data

PREMIER       3800  3921.3  1.8  0.0  -0.4  0.0  75  0.75  0.85  0.52  5  200.0  22.0  10.0  R  P  8.5  0.6  1  35.0  1.0  0.12  0.0  0.30  -0.15  0.38  0.0  0.2  0.24  25000  50202004  610008  0  1  0 

 

vehicle.ide info

426,  premier,  premier,  car,   PREMIER,  PREMIER, null, richfamily, 10, 0, 0,  -1, 0.75, 0.75,  0

 

carmods.dat info

premier, bnt_b_sc_l, bnt_b_sc_m, exh_b_m, exh_b_t, nto_b_l, nto_b_s, nto_b_tw, rf_b_sc_r, spl_b_bab_m, spl_b_mab_m

 

carcols.dat info (the interior uses a 3rd carcol-compatible material, so it changes colours when you paint it. this means you have to put it in a different place in the file).

comment out the first entry of the premier by adding a "#" in front of it, like this: #premier then scroll to the end of the file to the "car4" section and add this line where appropriate alphabetically:

premier, 67,37,123,0, 38,42,18,0, 72,53,33,0, 17,53,33,0, 123,53,33,0

the 3rd value controls the interior colour, the 4th value does nothing for this vehicle (eg, the number in Red is for the interior; 67,37,0,0)

 

Notes:

The car has no visible gas cap. in all my reference, none is visible. so i put the dummy for it, behind the rear license plate. so if you want to shoot out the gas cap, shoot at the rear license plate.

 

For questions or comments you can contact ashdexx @gtaforums.com (preferred) or email me @ jesse3682_at_hotmail.com. replace _at_ with @. I don't check this email account nearly as often as I'm online @ gtaf, so pm me there if possible.

I've working on this, on and off, since sometime in may. That being said, i've gotten used to it, and how it looks. if you notice any glaring errors, imperfections, or just want to bitch about it in general, by all means do so, and i'll see what i can do to improve it. will edit with screenshots.

releasing is easy. getting it to a point im happy with, and that i think will produce a minimum of controversy, is more of a challenge. my standards are probably lower than most people's tounge.gif

Did you add that since my last visit you sly cat? I love the impalas biggrin.gif will it be the new one or the semipnew one that looks like a caprice? (masterP's or the ones most police use today)?

 

on topic: cot damn. There are axels! lol

 

edit: thanks GTA3Freak for your post below which helped me to learn to spell axles correctly lo

I'd leave it at a Impala SS version, a Taxi and a police. Other wise you'd be overwhoring the car a bit confused.gif Dexx, you need to change the orange lights on the front, that's the only little bad part about this car.

heh, dude, i quoted the entire readme in my first post tounge.gif

 

 

Dexx, you need to change the orange lights on the front, that's the only little bad part about this car.

yea i noticed that, and a couple other small details i'll iron out later today. the lights pieces you mention, were giving me transparency issues, so i had to mess with them a bit.

 

Is anyone having trouble with the collision? i had a few weird spots where i got stock in a wall, or the ground. no one has complained, maybe its just my bad driving tounge2.gif

 

I'll stick to the police/impala versions, which will keep my plate plenty full. And the stock caprice should do just fine for a low-rider, its fully upgradeable, and the body is skinnable with SAs skinning system. oh, i didnt mention that? devil.gif

since it's skinnable... I might replace a lowrider with it indeed... but one question I have still... could you post some of the skins you made for it... paintjobs and stuff...?

well done on finishing the car and getting it in-game...

looks like a nice model indeed, although 2 little points i'd like to point out

- that chrome grill just looks wrong, it makes me itchy all over

- colours on the car seem a bit off, but seen that on other mods too, so i'll blame R* for that one

 

looking forward to your cop car though smile.gif
