[REL|ASI|BIN/SRC] GTA Studios

[ceedj]

IMPORTANT - IF YOU DOWNLOADED THE VICE OR LIBERTY STUDIOS 3.0 SOURCE, THEY ARE THE WRONG FILES. Long story. Vice and Liberty are now updated with the proper sources.

 

GTA Studios is a suite of filming mods to help in making movies using the Grand Theft Auto series of games. These mods give you full control of peds, cars, enviornments, whatever!

 

Ok, before anyone asks, why yes, we DO have San An Studios.

 

CHANGE LOG:

01/03/07 - Version 3.3C

- Internal code updates - should crash FAR less often...

 

11/05/06 - Version 3.3 Bug fix

- Game no longer crashes if you use DELETE ALL and then hit animation keys

- Ped 5 will now spawn the chosen ped (was stuck on one model for a project)

- Game no longer crashes if you try to store actors without creating them first

- Game no longer crashes if you try to create a ped and stop a running animation; this also fixed the issue with certain animation bank columns not displaying properly

 

11/04/06 - Version 3.3

- Fixed some major bugs with the internal code; those with problems with random crashes should download this updated version.

- Added Player Animations; the player can now use just about ALL the animations available. Switched the key from "P" to "CAPS LOCK" so all banks would be available.

- Added "Storage"; all peds and cars created can now be "stored" for later recall. Should be especially useful for reshoots. Note that this is session specific.

- Added teleporter script; now you can instantly teleport to one of 30 fabulous locations in San Andreas! Thanks to SA-MP's debug mode.

- Added aircraft/boat pursuit. The Hunter and Hydra will attack the player as well if you want. VERY experimental; don't expect fabulous results yet.

- Fixed driveby; now works with peds AND the player. Thanks to Mike from the SA-MP team for his insight on this.

- Added "Player Car Grab" - any vehicle the player enters can become Car1 by pressing HOME + C.

- Re-added Weather Text; not sure why it was removed, but it's back now.

- Weapon selection is now like choosing peds/cars. Should be easier to use now.

- Added 5 "gamespeed" controls; super slow, really slow, slow, meduim and normal. Can you find the goofy in-joke inside GAMEKEYS.txt?

 

 

 

The "banks" are the most important part of this mod. The Animation/Creation controls have been removed, so ALL animations and creation routines are now available at the same time. Huzza!

 

Please, also take note of this:

 

VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: **************************************

As most GTA: San Andreas gamers know, R* re-released GTA: SA with the famous "Hot Coffee" parts removed. Unfortunately, this release also disallows most mods, so this mod WILL NOT WORK. Unless you have the origianl version of San Andreas 1.0 as released in June of 2005, you're pretty much hosed. Less than legal ways of converting your game back to version 1.0 exist, however this method is not encouraged or in any way condoned. However, for those interested, a Google search will show you what is necessary.

******************************************************************

 

In case there's any confusion about the above, no matter what version you have or how you went about getting it, this REQUIRES a v1.0 US or EU exe to work. Don't ask where to get one.

 

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE look over the README file before asking a ton of questions. I worked very hard to make sure every nugget of information about the use of this mod is in there; use it.

Now, for those of you still here, these are the latest releases for Vice and Liberty Studios.

 

 

CHANGE LOG:

Both Liberty and Vice:

09/19/06 - Version 3.3

- Fixed the weapons bug. All player and ped weapons work properly again.

- Weapons now use a selector, similar to the ped/car creation, using PAGE UP,

PAGE DOWN and BACKSPACE.

- Fixed a minor bug that didn't remove the LOD model of the Green Screen when

turning it off.

- Added player animations; the player can use most of the animations that the

peds use. See GAMEKEYS.TXT for details. Use with modifier P.

- Included "Target Textures" pack, which replace hud.txd and particle.txd. This

removes the targeting recticles from the handguns, submachine/rifles and the

rocket launcher. All other weapons function and target normally.

 

Liberty Studios:

09/05/06 - Version 3.2

- Rewrote most of the engine. Although it should be faster (and MUCH easier to

update), the file size is about the same due to VS2005 bloating the hell out of it.

- The mod now begins "the mission" immediately, skipping the tutorial. The tutorial

is still there; press INSERT + BACKSPACE to view it.

- Includes a "Green Screen" map mod for use with video editors that support

compositing. See the "Pawfect Green Screen Show" directory for installation

instructions. This mod is provided by Johnline (www.freewebs.com/ricoswavae) and

is used with permission.

- Added controls to enable/disable the Green Screen mod

- Added controls to enable/disable the debris that floats on the ground.

- Included a new "invisible" skin for compatibility with the v6 and v7 BETAS of

GTA:LC.

 

Vice Studios:

 

Same except the invisible skin.

 

To use, READ THE README. Then drop the Vice/Liberty Studios .asi file into your GTA:VC/GTA:LC folder. Then, READ THE README. There are links below.

 

Also, since Spookie never got back to me either way, I'm releasing the source files for these two mods, in case anyone wants to play around with them. Use them as you like, but please credit Spookie and myself.

Looking Forward to it mate.

[RainingAcid]

*Cries* No SA? Well, I'll use the VC one.

[Smellton]

I have been looking foward to this for a long time.

[ceedj]

New stuff, I says. Get it from the top post.

 

Changes:

 

 

04/02/06 - Version 3.1

- I made a HUGE boo-boo and deleted the wrong set of sources, so I had to do EVERYTHING

over again. Luckily, most of the changes I made were saved in text files, so it wasn't

TOO bad. But hey, here's some new stuff too:

- Added weapon selection to the player

- Added "Drive to Dummy" controls for both cars; now the cars will drive themselves

to where ever you drop the dummy ped

- Added "Player as a passenger" so that you can let your peds drive you around. You can

also let the Player enter as a driver and let the car "auto drive" to the dummy if you

like

- Added Fire controls - now all peds and cars can be set on fire, along with ten

separate fires for general use

- Added "Explosion" (car modifier + X) to both cars

- Added "Shake Camera"; use Insert + S to give the camera a slight shake

 

Also, the proper source for VS 3.1 has been upped; expect similar changes to Liberty and Myriad later tonight.

 

[ms.cooldude]

im about to download it now cos it realy looks good!

 

nice one! hers two cookies!

[ceedj]

Liberty 3.1 asi and sources are now up; check the top post.

 

Sorry for the source mix up. I've now backedup these files in several different places.

 

It's amazing how much I have to do to offset my own stupidity.

[ceedj]

IMPORTANT BUG FIXED. Version remains the same though, so just redownload version 3.1.

 

Also fixed the documentation; Shake Camera is INSERT + X, not S (which is the player skin changer).

 

Sources have been updated too.

 

Sorry about that!

[ceedj]

Hmmm, looks like someone found a late Easter present...

 

See the first post for details/links, but here's some screenies...

 

 

Have fun!

 

EDIT: If anyone downloaded this and had a problem with the time staying frozen at 12:00, please redownload the archive. This has been fixed; sorry aboot that!

I'll use it for stunt vids, sure

[AC/Vercetti/DC]

Pretty cool mod, besides it was Easy to install. Have some ies

[TenkratFIN]

This is very useful and contains everything what's important in movie making.

 

But, for some reason, this makes my SA crash too many times... especially when I'm searching peds, or when I press backspace. Everytime I press Delete + Backspace this crashes.

 

Otherwise, really good job.

That's really odd. I just tested that and it works peachy...

 

Hmmm. Do you have anything special assigned to delete and/or backspace?

 

Is your version of GTA SA modded? Running trainers? Sharing keys with CamHack?

 

Just trying to see if I can duplicate this. Lemmie know; I'll try to help.

[RainingAcid]

I cannot make my PED 1 move to my car. This what I did

 

INSERT+1

Ped Spawn

BACKSPACE

Ped Chosen

INSERT+7

CarSpawn

BACKSPACE

Car Chosen

LEFT SHIFT + N

Nothin happens

 

-_-

 

Works fine in VC, haven't tried GTA 3, but SA never works for me. I far as to create the car and ped, but that's it

 

 

 

I have a No CD crack, will it work with that?

Edited April 25, 2006 by RainingAcid

[ceedj]

Everything's right EXCEPT after you create the car, you have to turn on the animation engine with INSERT + A. To go back to car & ped creation/deletion, press DELETE + A.

[RainingAcid]

-_-. Baka. Thanks I'll try it.

I have lots of mods, but it happened only several times and I think that the whole problem is now disappeared.

 

But I found a new one; when you set a new time and start searching different times, the new problem is hunger. After you're gone ahead about 24 hours when searching different times, CJ will become hungry. Then, if I continue my advancement in time, I will lost all my fat/muscle, and finally CJ will die. Bit disturbing...

 

Some possibility to toggle hunger on or off would be nice.

[ceedj]

 

Some possibility to toggle hunger on or off would be nice.

Type in this before setting time:

 

AEDUWNV = Never Get Hungry (edisoncarter)

 

or

 

CrackheadChinaMenu = Never get hungry. (mine)

 

I don't think there's an SCM control for hunger. If there is, someone let me know, and I'll slug it in. For now, the above cheats work fine. Mine is longer, but eaiser to remember.

 

Good luck!

 

EDIT: This must be the result of another mod, beucause I just checked time selection, and the day NEVER changes, no matter how forward or backward you go. The cheats above should still solve it, but I thought people should know that this is not a problem with un-modded games.

I wish they cod flying a helicop or hunter and chase you.

[~Iban~]

Thank you a lot, i love it !

 

But i have a small bug : when i type inser+8 (car n°2) my game crash.

But it's the only one

 

[GTA Ryder]

 

Hy! I'm new in this topic and I would like to know what's the difference between Vice Studios and Liberty Studios...

Thanks

[ceedj]

Liberty Studios is essentially the same except it's built for use with the Total Conversion GTA:LC, which takes the GTA III world and missions and puts them into the Vice City engine (found under hosted mods as GTA: Liberty City).

[GTA Ryder]

ok, thx alot ceedj but... I have one more question: Is there a liberty studio only 4 GTAIII???

thanks

[ceedj]

Sorry, but no. The hook was coded for Vice, and therefore easy for me to port.

[RainingAcid]

Are you gonna make it so Peds can fly helicopts amd planes a drive boats?

[GTA Ryder]

thx a lot man.. I'll download the Total Conversion GTA:LC.

[ceedj]

San An Studios update - fixed a couple of bugs. See the first post for the new downloads (source updated too)...

 

 

05/09/06 - Bug fixes:

- Fixed the "locked door" bug on Police Vehicles; all

vehicles can be entered now.

- Fixed the Group 3 Peds to work properly with special

actors. Also offset the creation slightly to avoid the

ped "stacking" that was occurring. Now, just move your

player slightly to adjust for this.

 

Also, the Transfender shops WILL mod any spawned cars (well, any cars that can normally be modded), but you MUST turn of the Animation Info Panel (DELETE + I) to make any selections. Same goes for ANY shops (food, clothes, etc) that use a menu. Re-enable the Anim Panel with INSERT + I.

 

To anyone having problems with the camera ped crashing the game, please post here along with what mods you are using. I can't seem to crash it, so it must be a mod issue. Same goes for those having troubles with Car 2.

 

Fun fact - you can re-explode cars as many times as you want. Looks really neat.

[J-Fox.GEMM]

How to make the ppl shoot with the weapons? :s i see no reason for putting em in when they arent able to use em

[ceedj]

Use a PED MODIFIER (LF SHIFT, LF CONTROL, etc) plus 1 through 9 or F4.

 

It's in the READ ME. (This is the San An Version, but the Vice/Liberty controls are very similar)

 

 

USING WEAPONS FOR PEDS

Create your peds, then press the MODIFIER + F7 to cycle the weapons. Press a

MODIFIER + F8 to clear the weapon.

 

Ok, great; they've got guns. Now what? Well, sick 'em on other peds! Press a MODIFIER

+ 1-9 (depending on the ped) to have it attack that ped. The Peds you choose must be

created or nothing will happen (though it will NOT crash). For instance, if you want

Ped 1 to attack Ped 2, press LEFT SHIFT + 2 and it will attack. To have Ped 2 fight

back, press LEFT CONTROL + 1. The Three Ped group has a "swarm" control, where all three

peds will attack 1. If you choose to fight the same ped your controlling (i.e.,

LEFT SHIFT + 1), the ped will fight as if there is someone there, almost like

shadowboxing.

 

Still bored? Ok, but don't say I didn't warn you. Press a MODIFIER + F4 and the ped will

attack the player! You can do this with all 9 peds (individual peds 1-6, and the Three

Group peds) for a nice round of mini deathmatch/rampage. Oh yes, all peds now have a max

health of 2000 points, so they won't go down easily!

 

[J-Fox.GEMM]

So it is NOT possible to make an actor point at a given location and make em shoot?

 

btw: thought about adding sum features to ur code and create a nice ui. Maybe i will do when i have got a free min... So you could have a timeline etc
