BobbyBalboa Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 (edited) This may be old news, but some weapons were removed from the game before it was finished. I've been modding loads of the files in my data folder, and in "default.IDE" there is a section that says: "#OLD REMOVED WEAPON MODELS" and the weapons include a screwdriver, a hammer, a cleaver, a machete, a laser rifle, and an M60. I don't know if these files can be restored, but when I tried to replace the default weapon values with the ones of the old removed weapons, the game froze up before it finished loading.

Yes these are data remains from GTA:VC. As far as I know there is no model for these weapons in the default San Andreas . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrt Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Laser Rifle? Dunno what to make of that. I do know that there was going to be a skateboard in the game, but not ridable, just used as a melee weapon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHRobertson Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Laser Rifle? Dunno what to make of that. He means the PSG-1 from Vice City (Sniper Rifle with a laser scope) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrt Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Ohhh. I thought that a laser gun wouldn't be very GTA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyBalboa Posted June 2, 2006 Author Share Posted June 2, 2006 I do know that there was going to be a skateboard in the game, but not ridable, just used as a melee weapon. For some reason, the skateboard is in the file, but not on the removed list, it's on the current melee weapons list along with the knife, the baseball bat, the shovel, and all the others.

Mainland Marauder Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Ohhh. I thought that a laser gun wouldn't be very GTA. I'd agree - but the gun didn't shoot lasers. It only had a laser sight. Very 1980s. Like the first Terminator movie. In Vice it didn't seem to have much difference from the regular sniper rifle.

TheDude5000 Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 This is old news. The first "mod" released for SA was code to put the skateboard back in SA, as a melee weapon. R* were planning to have a skateboard in SA that you could ride, and use as a melee weapon. But that plan never came to light... At least you can still carve people up with it. Maybe even the riding animations are still in one of the .ifp files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthSlurpee Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 I loved the screwdriver in Vice City... Stab a person once, and they'd chase you, dripping blood... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
