* SRt3 it's a San Andreas Mod, that retextures the entire map. It is at least the initial name of the project which the goal is to retexture any piece/object of San Andreas by textures of much higher quality.
* SRt3 Mod exist since August 2005 - original author of this mod is ParoXum.
* SRt3 mod has been released on 7 August 2006, but not everything was retextured, ParoXum leaves the mod how
* On 4 April 2008, the mod started to be continued by me.
* Under the name of SRt2, in time the mod's name had changed into SRt3.


This list represents all the goodies inside SRt3, including other mods and innovations brought to this version since the last
version:
* New HUD
* Detailled Radar MOD by Ian Albert & BaygoN
* Lod Mod/Draw Distance Mod
* *OGM_2Pac*'s develop peds Packs for SRt3.

* Complete Retexture San Fierro - ParoXum & BLITZ
* Complete Retexture Las Venturas - ParoXum & BLITZ
* Changes in commercial logos like banners, billboards : Sprunk, Victim, BurgerShot, BoBo - BLITZ



* For starters is required a clean V1.0 GTA San Andreas game. Other mods comes second.
* Mipmaps - This new edition of SRt3 brings the possibility to play SRt3 textures with Mipmaps along with Lod Mod and now this time with Trees Lod included. Another project of mine that increases the Level of Detail for far objects of higher quality.
* SRt3 Mipmap Edition textures are now having MipMaps. They are set to level 9.
* SRt3 Mipmap Edition also contains my last work from where I stopped in Los Santos. Reminder that these textures where in semifinal build so reporting for finding any kind of texture who are not in their right place is futile.
* SRt3 Mipmap Edition includes .Lod Mod/Draw Distance Mod.
* SRt3 Mipmap Edition doesn't change the game interiors.
* SRt3 Mipmap Edition includes all the previous versions and updates, meaning you don't need any other old versions.
* The setup will install all the files in your PC, but you still have to install the mod by yourself.
* San Fierro Finished - 100%
* Las Venturas Finished - 100%
* Desert & Country Finished - 100%
* Los Santos : The progress has stopped due to my PC that is already old. I don't have money and even time anymore to, focus on what is left of Los Santos for now. When I'll have enough upgrades for my PC, then I will continue from where I stopped.
* SRt3 works with SA-MP & MTA.
* The Mod needs V1.0 because many programs & tools are asking for V1.0, otherwise no program will work for you in order to install something.
* Why does SRt3 lags or why I'm having FPS drops ? At the moment I don't have any problems with lag, when using SRt3. I will remember that I have EAH3650 HD 1GB with Core 2 Duo 3,01ghz, of 4GB RAM. So far, for those who are having lower than mine, there is a change to have bit of lag.
* Med Editor/Map Editor won't work anymore after gta3.img reaches 2GB/2.2GB and either with SRt3 when it will hit between 3.32GB/3.45GB with SRt3 and Archived at 2.50GB/2.80GB.
* The Limit size of gta3.img is 4.095MB/4GB. IMG Manager can also show you this information.
Going beyond 4GB for gta3.img, the game will crash at exit, the entire textures will be replaced with LOD blurry textures. Is not recommended to be played in such conditions.
* Using IMG Tool V2 (Who the heck is using that anymore ?) or Alci's IMG with SRT3 installed, once the gta3.img is above 2GB, all the files that were installed previously will have 0KB when they will be extracted.
All the files will be empty inside and not a single program like 3DMax, TXD Workshop, ZModeler can open them.
Both or any other older IMG Tool aren't capable of extracting them properly anymore, even if you can still view their real size correctly inside of any IMG Tool.
* It is possible that when using to often Alci's IMG Rebuild Archive command, at unknown percentage, the progress stops, cancels the hole progress, shows an error message and all the files that were supposed to be IMPORTED never got installed.
* From this point the entire GTA3.IMG is broken, accordingly you have to use another clean gta3.img.
I recommend IMG Manager made by xmen, the newest IMG Tool that can extract, import, rebuild. IMG MANAGER can have unlimited rebuild gta3.img - IMG Manager Official Topic
http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=354093
For Win7, if IMG Manager doesn't work or run, use this: %windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\ldr64.exe setwow



* For Win7, if IMG Manager doesn't work or run, use this: %windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\ldr64.exe setwow
* There are differences between this IMG Tool and from the others well known.
* IMPORT command will always import any kind of file, but it will not replace the old/original files with the newest, meaning that you will have a duplicate of the same file in the IMG and the game could possibly crash at the loading screen or you will have trouble with the mod that was installed. You have to erase the old/original file in order for the new file to work properly.
* BULK REPLACE command will definitely IMPORT & REPLACE on the same time any file that was installed, however it will accept only folders with files that are prepared inside them, just as my San Andreas Lod Mod is sorted out.
* BULK REPLACE will also never recognize new files that don't exist inside the gta3.img and the command start replacing something that cannot be found, therefore the use of IMPORT command is required to be used. This is a reference to my seven new objects.

* For CLEO4 in order to make 512MB.asi work: http://cleo.sannybuilder.com/ (Current Version - NEW! CLEO 4 Library (v4.3.11)/Installer(.EXE) or Standalone (Archive).

* Project 2dfx to get Tweaker & Limit Adjuster by following the link below:
* http://gtaforums.com/topic/573478-iiivcsa-project-2dfx/ Made by [TheJAMESGM & ThirteenAG]
* Find the download link: "Project 2dfx SA - Download" and download the lastest version ( the current version is Project_2dfx_sa v1.6 )
* Extract only flickr.asi into the main DIR of San Andreas game aka gta_sa.exe

Bonus!
-----------
* There is a Bonus folder where you can find the following content.
* As result of making Lod Mod, all the previous LOD texture were erased. However for those who aren't interested plaing with Lod Mod as well, they can use Lod texture again. The files can be found in Bonus folder, LOD Textures Pack and they also include mipmaps now.
* Ped Pack consist in peds retexturing. I had users with opinions where some would not like to play with them and others would want to.
* Is nothing better than having a new look of Hud.


* fastman92 for making memory512.cs and methodunderg for compiling the file.
* Robanswe for finding a way to fix the SA-MP CUSTOM.IDE white textures bug.
* And the rest of the members and users who made reports over the past months.

Where did you get all these textures? They are cool! But try to make them in their original sizes, because if import bigger textures the game will lag.

 

P.S. Mai sunt si romani pe aici.

Wow man! Can't wait for the release I always wanted LS fully retextured and other sh*t Good work

[Claude GTA3 3]

@ Bullet_Chris: He made them himself. Stop quoting huge posts with alot of images. Nobody cares if you lag.

[Supra4 0]

Was it really necessary to quote that Chris?

 

SRT3 looking great as usual. Unfortunately my PC isn't too happy when I install it.

 

As for the vinewood sign ... how about white? The real version is white as well. Perhaps a tiny bit of dirt, but not too much.

[bumster 0]

To the OP: It's actually called SRt3.

Whoa,

 

nice work man.

 

Thats way better then my finished stuff, especially the LOD look amazing.

 

Cant wait for the upload. I have finished the stuff too, but to match those LOD files has been a pain in the...

 

So my Kudos to you man.

 

The only thing i dont like is the vine wood sign.

 

But everything else looks amazing.

[BLlTZ 104]

To Bullet_Chris : I see that you don't know much about STR3 because only the thing about what your saying "make the .bmp on original size. If I make them small then you will not see the texture quality and then that will not be STR3 after all. My comp. is old and I don't have this tipe of problems.

 

To Darecki: Yeah.. thx what's why I wanted to make this

 

To Knochen : I'm working on this now, I have find some "metal" and I will try to make it with a little bit of color and 70% white ( like original )

 

To Knochen : Yeah... was a crazy idea to put high quality .bmp , but it work, you don't see the diferents

Exactly what i wanted to point out.. BTW, nice work, just pls retexture the vinewood sign.. that sucks ass imo.

[FullMetal 505]

What do you mean with my computer is old? Give it's specifications please, because my computer is old too and it had ALOT of problems with the previous (unfinished) version(s) of the mod. It lagged the hell out of my game.

 

My pc:

P4 2,66 Gighz

1 Gig of ram

ATI 9600 256 mb

 

So yeah, yours will probably be alot better...

[BLlTZ 104]

I have old computer and I don't have problems, I didn't have problems before with STR3. The lagg is making only when you change cars, bikes, planes.. etc even with them I still don't have problems... I have only with Project Oblivion ( here you need some good computer )

 

- Asus 9550

- 512Ram

- Amd Athlon 64 (+3000) 2.0ghz and is more old then you

[kakarot_9 0]

I'm a bit confused, so this is fixed SRT 3 made by Paroxum? Do you have permission to modify it?

There's no such thing as STR, it should be SRT(San Andreas Re-Textured).

 

[jas0nuk 0]

Looks good. When will you be finished?

Yes. Now I have seen that I have write the mod backwords.

 

Update: Is the single VineWood-texture sign that I have found. The others are not looking very good and are small .bmp . But is looking much good than "green thing" ( I think )

 

 

Update on the bridge too

Well now is something else, that the lod.txd are the same resolution like the normal .txd files so is making a little bit of lagg. I'm computer is 3 years old and like how ParoXum said, the STr3 don't do lagg or the game to work slow ( if you work with Anti Aliasing, of course if making lagg, I don't use that option.

 

And I have found a nother bug on STR3 old and now is fix.

Hi,

 

one question are you trying to fix the road difference in the lod texture ?

 

Or even better making the lod roads at higher res ?

 

That would be amazing. But its so much work. Cause some road textures are bundled witch other stuff like grass and sand.

 

Well i wait for the release. When you expect to be ready with it ?

[FullMetal 505]

Yay it runs fine! Thanks! I hadn't tried it in ages ... but it runs better than expected!

 

Btw; one problem I have: trees/palm models & textures don't come up properly ...

There is a very wired problem with the lod.txd. They are very diferent than the normal texture. When it come's with the .lods roads, they have roads + sidewalk, making hard to make them. I realy don't know how to make them for the moment. For example only one .bmp file can have 3-4buildings in it at 128x128 resolution. I will be hard but I will try to make them.

I realy don't know what you have done, but I think that you have project oblivion.

Srt3 is not compatible with with Project Oblivion. Because the same Mods has the same name files and overrite itch other. You have to change the files by your self to make this two mods to work properly.

You Might want Paroxums permission. He can get touchy with that. He spent alot of time with this mod... Best to ask the original creator.

If he didn't give me permission, you think that I was opening this topic?! This is a respected mod and I can't play with this.

Can you show me a picture or more... I realy don't know what you have done, but I think that you have project oblivion. Man first instal STr3 Mod then Project Oblivion then you gona start to see them in white because gona be gus between *****.dff and *****.txd.

Normal trees aren't replaced + the palm trees pop up white (so untextured).

 

Wierd... I'll make a screen asap
