The following files goes to "models" folder (which is inside your game's folder): "effectsPC.txd", "effects.fxp", "particle.txd", "hud.txd", "fronten1.txd" and "fronten_pc.txd". You can find "effectsPC.txd" and "particle.txd" inside three different folders that are placed inside "Required Files" folder. Choose the ones you want (if you want HQ version choose the files from HQ folder, MQ version from MQ folder and LQ version from LQ folder). After that install "vehicle.txd" put it inside the "generic folder", which is inside "models".

2- Now you can install complemets. All complements are installed importing files to "gta3.img". Just choose the ones you are gonna install. You can install "Traffic lights complements" and "Water complements" without problems. But install "Weapon's complements" only if you still have the original SA weapons and install "SA GTA IV Hud complements" only if you have "SA GTA IV Hud mod"

 

 

SAMI Instalation

 

1- First of all you need to have San Andreas Mod installer. If you don't have it get it. You can find it easly in google.

2- Open each sami to install what its name says: "[HQ]Install New Great Effects 1.5.sami" will install NGE 1.5's HQ version, "[MQ]Install New Great Effects 1.5.sami" will install NGE 1.5's MQ version, "[LQ]Install New Great Effects 1.5.sami" will install NGE 1.5's LQ version, "Install SA GTA IV Hud Complements.sami" will install SA GTA IV Hud Complements (don't install them if you don't have SA GTA IV Hud mod) and "Install Weapon Complements.sami" will install Weapon Complements (don't install them if you don't have the original SA weapons. If you have only some original weapons install them using manual installation.)

3- Select your game folder (the root folder) and press continue. Then press install.

"The Mod Showroom is only for posting previews/downloads of completed or near finished mods."

 

This sentance means posters should only post topics in this forum if they are previews, or releases with download links. Posters should also only post topics for mods that are near complete or finished.

 

Did he give us previews? No. Did he give us a download link? No. Does the mod look like it's anywhere near completed? Again, no.

[adijaga2]

Guys, stop spamming. If he posted in wrong place the moderator or admin will move this topic. Anyway. King_OF_SA can you make more smoke when drifting?

King i think you didn't read my post..:

 

King_OF_SA can you make more smoke when drifting?

[Function-X-]

I really like your effects King, but i'm using my own effects atm, and anyway here's a couple of suggestions :

 

Explosions smoke trails, i'm trying to make it work... i think it's possible if we gave the sparks a smoke trail, but i had no success atm

 

Blood, your effects needs a couple of blood splats

 

Smoke, include many types, like cigarette smoke style for ex.

 

Things i love about your effects:

The explosion debris

Wind system

 

Things i hate:

Explosions always look the same

Nos effect

 

 

Also let me know if you need some textures

[FullMetal]

Well it's rather pathetic that people like you guys act all though with things like this. Seriously, come on. Just report it if it's bad... no big deal.

 

Admins/moderators will deal with it if it's really disturbing/out of place.

 

I don't find anything non-suitable in here. It'd be better if he would provide some screenshots and/or some 'living links' to previous versions of the mod.

 

But not a big deal tbh...

Yes, the explosion's smoke trails are posssible, but not with good results (i made that proyect for 1.4, but it was bad). Only copy the spark's emmiter, change emmiter's texture(s) to a smoke texture, Add a trail num_prim and done. But it won't follow the particles D:. Other way is to copy the particle's emitter, change emmiter's texture(s) to a smoke texture, increase its size, reduze its emrate, add biad to angle and done.

Just to make myself clear...

 

When I said "you should use only 256x256 and 512x512 textures", I actually meant nothing smaller than those values. 256 and 512 are frequent values in GTA mods and that's why I mentioned them. If you want to make HQ textures with 1024x1024, feel free to do so

 

Also, since your mod is particle mod itself, it can't be compatible with "Project Reality". However, you could use some "key" textures like water and clouds in "New Great Effects" (with Dinuxx's permission, of course) The same thing goes for effects.FXP... Let it be unique, but "PReality" compatible

It is compatible, i took the textures that my mod didn't have from dunux's one, then i modified them.

So i don't need permision cuz i don't have parts of his mod, i only made mine compatible.

[Blackmen]

Make it compatible with "Project Reality", but that sa-mp don't crashes with project reality.

my opinion:

Nitro fire is too big! and the color is too pink!

too much smoke on fire! after blowing a lot of cars i can eaven see my self!

[SPAS_12]

make better clouds.make less smoke, less dark somthing like mid-gray and make the nitro more blue

 

Explosions always look the same

:Agreed

 

 

Also if you can make the shooting less laggy.

 

 

 

 

 

- Long distance effects.

Awsome sh*t.

my opinion:

The nitro i think is good and the some after blowing a lot of cars won't let you to see anything in real life. So in my mod the same.

 

 

make better clouds.make less smoke, less dark somthing like mid-gray and make the nitro more blue

 

Explosions always look the same

:Agreed

 

 

Also if you can make the shooting less laggy.

Nitro have a color like this: Click to enlarge.

So i want to get that colour.

 

Less smoke where? give me pic of the effect. Better clounds are being made. Explain me the "less dark somthing like mid-gray". thanks, it will make me understand better how to do it.

 

Explosions always look the same due to the fact that gta sa only have four kind of explosions with an add on for vehicles. Only five effects don't let a game to have a lot of different explosions. Anyways i think i can make them change adding bias.

The shooting doesn't lag me. But i'll try.

 

 

 

- Long distance effects.

Awsome sh*t.

I made that because i read some comments telling that it would be cool, cuz sa looks more real, cuz i like it and cuz that tool teached me how to do it.

If you don't like it offer a good alternative.

Edited February 18, 2009 by [SAK*]KING_OF_SA

i meant that you should make the smoke more like 1.3

[[SAK*]KING_OF_SA]

Black smoke? Show me these effects. I still have 1.3

Anyways burn something, the smokeis not black.
