NMDanny Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 is that even legal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HazardX Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 (edited) is that even legal? no, definately not. i think i can smell the lawyers already. seriously, i think it is strange that you violate copyrights so obviously here. Just because it is not (yet) released for PC does not mean that you can copy it at will. [EDIT] And don't get me wrong here, i'd love to see the DLC ported to the PC. It would also not be wrong to discuss how to do it. But sharing the actual DLC content? Edited February 23, 2009 by HazardX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 (edited) Its being discussed. Right, sorry to put an end to the hard work been done here, but we cannot allow this. It's piracy. Which is against forum rules, not to mention this would probably be final nail in the coffin for modding gta. Links removed.

pinky Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Pfff. I hate Xbox owners who also have PCs. ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Right, links removed. By all means discuss about it for time being. But do not post any links or say where you can get the TLAD files from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinky Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 You know that seeing how the DLC is implemented is also beneficial to ordinary mods. We need to see how they bypassed the ide problems etc and get the additional vehicles in there without problems, it isn't all about ripping the DLC you know.

arthurc Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Now, if I'd have the grenade launcher animations, the grenade launcher model, the model of the grenade that's fired by the grenade launcher, I'd have a perfect TLAD grenade launcher. Do you post it ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to see how they bypassed the ide problems etc and get the additional vehicles in there without problems, it isn't all about ripping the DLC you know. following this logic it is also correct to steal a flatpanel-tv from the next electro market if you just want to disassemble it to look how it works? Believe me, lawyers usually don't care much about your reasons for stealing something. Also there is no need for you to argue with the forum mods. Sharing the files is illegal and the forum mods don't make the law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lopezus97 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 the actual DLC content? it didn't look like actual DLC content, it's strike me more as a formated date prepared for modding... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hergonan Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Hergonan i just checked with the stock 360 gtaiv and i can open the SCO's how ever if i open them from the update or TLAD they wont open. So somethings changed a bit and the program dosent know what to do. Im useing Spark. yep their identifiers are changed I'm currently working on a java sco decompiler - compiler, hopefully it will work on the new sco version I just need to find what changed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sk8er_martz Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I think you should start looking into the GTA IV update than the Lost and Damned content because if you can pull off chapter switching, this'll revolutionize modding because instead of reinstalling mods all the time you could just swtich content packs in game to enable/disable them, maybe create new multiplayer modes and have total conversion mods that you could just add on to the game instead of overwriting files with.

Hergonan Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Scone - A .sco Script Decompiler Yeah. That doesn't decrypt the stuff though. I'm looking at SparkIV's decryption method. It seems the key is in the executable. That means... we need to get the executable of the DLC, decrypt it, and so on. Sigh. ---- So I stopped working on my decompiler for now, I'll finish my current projects first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anique Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 (edited) I've checked out the files which can be opened and i've noticed they contain the additional content only so i manually updated my old files. Also the main spa.bin file looks like it has setup info. BTW, we are just discussing the DLC file formats. Its not piracy or anything until we actually do it. e.g. anyone can say that he's planning to kill the president of the united states but he doesn't get to prison for planning. P.S. Seems as if we need a spark IV which works with the 360 file system. Aru did say Spark IV worked with 360 during development but he compiled it for the pc version. Someone contact Aru so that we get done with this. Edited February 23, 2009 by anique Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hellzone100 Posted February 23, 2009 Author Share Posted February 23, 2009 (edited) SparkIv opens the RPF's that are in the xbox version no problem. Its just the files with the xbox format.

Gforce Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 i wish you guys would just STFU about the legalities or what YOU consider to be the legalities. plain and simple, if you put these files online for public download without people having to pay M$ or R* for them, it IS Piracy, this is a brand new game element which is ONLY made available through "XBox Live". get over it and STFU with all the f***ing freeloading bullsh!t talk !!! as for using all the other R* ripped mods as an excuse for you thinking this is legal, i'm personally dead against gtaforums allowing any of those mods to continue, ripping off other people's work is stealing imho. well done to the guys working on whether the files can be converted though, i've just paid for TLAD and i'll be downloading it all (legally) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont care much for xbox live if we can get this for PC and pay for it too its fine by me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
