Killuminati91 Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 (edited) oh so cheat protection fails and we all will have a destroyed but moddable multiplayer soon Unfortunately yes. But hopefully R* will come up with a solution to that soon. One possibility would be to provide a separate directory for user mods which will only be loaded in single player mode. We'll see... that would still kinda suck cause we NEED multiplayer mods rpg, zombie, new gamemodes and stuff like that Lets see how this turns out, i just dont want to see another cheat destroyed multiplayer, but gta iv sp and mp get boring after a while and we gotta see something new.

Grand Theft Auto Dude Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Okay, this is f*cking awesome.

Tekspdy Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Can someone post the modified files for a vehicle with tons of mass and better acceleration, or something of the sort? I've tried all this editing with no real luck, though the last time I edited anything was back in the Midtown Madness days with simple notepad files. (I'm assuming you need to edit variables here in HEX which I don't completely understand) Much appreciated Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/379452-gta4-modding-ability/?do=findComment&comment=1058721135 Share on other sites More sharing options...

opium_addict Posted December 7, 2008 Author Share Posted December 7, 2008 OK, for my next big update i plan to implement 2 things. 1) Anti-online code then of course there is the incentive to update the software, why would you want to use the next version? 2) i will be releasing an addon API for C++ which will allow developers to use and call Native GTAIV scripting functions (at least some of them) to produce a working mod of their own, or if you choose not to use the Natives you can simple not include the native code and add your DLL to the /addons/ directory for it to be loaded automatically, so you will be able to inject your DLL along with this one have fun!

khyshen Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Wow, shame, I changed the bouyancy to 10% [minimum value] and the car floats but Niko dies because of lack of air, really weird. Also I am stuck on changing the speed of the cars. I changed the value for Drive Inertia and Force to 500 but the rear wheels are locked, anybody already done this? Cheers.

JostVice Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 (edited) We should create a topic about the new data files in general, documenting and getting info for later explaining on www.gtamodding.com I've played a bit with the timecyc.dat This is the global sun ambient occlusion multipler; I increased each value to something viewable (like 0.000 to 9.000...) Interesting when I press P to enable the blur/dof: The timecycmodifiers.dat files from your pc folder are the timecyc's variation for interior/zones, pretty interesting: Edited December 7, 2008 by Jost_Vice Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/379452-gta4-modding-ability/?do=findComment&comment=1058721260 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dup Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Gah, I was hoping the exhaust backfires and dump vavle were handling flags. Sadly not Hydraulic flags don't work either, but that was expected.

evilrex Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 So nobody else gets the crash? Can anyone give me a run through of how they got it working? Just run "hook.exe", patch the filelist.bat and the game will run with mods?
