A bit of source code

[Squiddy]

I'm releasing source code of some stuff I've been working on, but probably won't continue for a while. I'm pretty sure someone else did similar stuff, but that way everyone here can profit. Of course this may seem to be kinda boring, but maybe someone can make use of it.

 

Custom cheats

http://squiddy.marway.org/gta/source/vc_custom_cheats.txt

 

Allows to create custom cheats. They are checked the same way Vice City does it, so they fit in neatly. Generate cheat codes, for example with: http://squiddy.marway.org/gta/stuff/vccheatcode.php (bit buggy...)

 

Custom opcodes

http://squiddy.marway.org/gta/source/vc_custom_opcodes.txt

 

Add new opcodes to the game. This example adds 0x05DC (example: 05DC: player_model "igcolon") and 0x05DD (example: 05DC: set_gravity 0.04) opcodes. You can add as many as you want.

Maybe I write some more details on how to retrieve the parameters.

 

 

Custom loadscreens and hud are still left, maybe I add them later. You could combine the opcodes and hud stuff to make new opcodes for rendering 2d sprites, like in San Andreas..

Seem like nice additions to Vice City. I'm sure people will benefit from this. Great work.

Good work. Although I would like to make one suggestion, try and use as little assembly code as possible, as you probably know not everyone knows the language.

 

Here's a snippet from the code I did for GTALC, it shows the implementation of the pager opcode for VC. It could show you how to cut down on assembly code (even if you have to call a class function).
