Zyo Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 (edited) Just want to draw your attention to a small txd mod i released recently on gtainside and gta-worldmods. Its a license plate replacement that accurately depicts the vehicle license tags seen in California/Nevada in 1992. It features the 3 common plates seen in these states plus two bonus tags (the California script plateback first issued in 1993 and the Sierra Sunset plate issued in 2001). The historic plates have correct renewal stickers made with expiry dates ranging from September 1992 to January 1993. The bonus plates have 2012 expiry stickers. This is a small mod intended purely for realism. I chose to release this as although there are many license plate mods available all seem to contain current issue platebacks. Mine are accurate as to the time period the game was intended to be set i.e early-mid 1992. This mod release is the final version. The mod contains: 1 California embossed plate: Issued 1987-1994, to replace LS plates 1 California Golden State plate: Issued 1982 - 1987, to replace SF plates 1 Nevada Big Horn plate: Issued 1983 - 2000, to replace LV plate Custom made platecharset.bmp Bonus 1 California Lipstick plate 1993 base. 2012 expiry 1 Nevada Silver State 2001 base. 2012 expiry The newest version (v1.01) is available here DOWNLOAD This version updates include: i: Added totally new custom platecharset.bmp ii: Better quality platebacks iii: Improved color matching between platebacks and platecharset. iv: Added extra bonus plate As requested, here are a few screenshots: They are from the v0.91 release. I intend to update soon.

Fredskin Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Maybe this one for the embossed plates would be more interesting, but you do what you want... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zyo Posted June 13, 2008 Author Share Posted June 13, 2008 (edited) Well it is all explained in the readme, but that plate above is the California Script design. It is the current California license tag and was first issued in December 1993. So it is outside my 1992 "deadline". I personally like the style of it, and have even included it in the pack if anyone wants it, but i do not use it. Thanks for the feedback so far.

Zyo Posted June 15, 2008 Author Share Posted June 15, 2008 (edited) Version 0.91 is available now The difference is the inclusion of an all-new platecharset.bmp This will replace the license plate font with a self-made variation of "Penitentiary Gothic". Penitentiary Gothic is a digital recreation of the letters used on California state license plates, designed in order to make props for movies and television shows. This update gives is a much more accurate representation of text that appears on Californian plates. It is finished and released on gta-worldmods http://gta-worldmods.planet-multiplayer.de...&contentid=4016 Edited June 18, 2008 by zyonig GTA IV REAL NYC AT GTAFORUMS GTA IV REAL - V8 RUMBLE http://gtaforums.com/topic/782964-reliv-gta-iv-real-v8-rumble/?do=findComment&comment=1067267056 https://www.nationstates.net/region=gta_forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlazerRotare Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 I've had a few difficulties getting this mod from the above mirror; it keeps browsing the ftp server rather than downloading the file. Anyway I have uploaded it to CodenameGTA.net for those who can't reach GTA World Mods! Matt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
