NTAuthority Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 (edited) After a day out debugging and reading more assembly code than I'd like, I'm proud to present an initial working-ish version of the well-known hidden movie menu in GTA3 or Vice City. It's not fully completed, and needs an XInput-compatible gamepad (Xbox 360 controller, Sixaxis/DS3 with motioninjoy drivers, or the XInput emulator; I'm too lazy to make it use DInput ) Requirements - GTA3/VC (1.0 only, possibly. don't know which version GTA3 I have, but VC is surely 1.0) - .NET Framework 2.0/Visual C++ 2008 redistributable (usual yada-yada) - A gamepad suitable for usual playing of GTA, supporting XInput... or - same as above, but with the Xbox 360 Controller Emulator by Racer_S - luck How to use Copy the .asi for the game you want to use in the game folder, start the game and press F11 (need to press it very shortly, or it'll jump back). The menu controls haven't been fully figured out, but I at least know the following: D-Pad Up/Down: move the menu Y: Select a menu option/confirm Screenshot (yes-I-know-this-shot-is-crappy) Video (GTA3) Download http://files.dotbas.net/GTA3VCMovie-alpha1.zip Edited January 25, 2010 by NTAuthority SILENT_Pavel and Hovac 2 Inactive in GTA/R* title modification indefinitely pursuant to a court order obtained by TTWO.

DexX Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 The menu controls haven't been fully figured out, but I at least know the following: Do the menu options actually function? I don't have vc or 3 installed, nor do I have the controller input requirements to test it. If the menu options are functional, can you post some more pics or a video of it in action?

NTAuthority Posted January 25, 2010 Author Share Posted January 25, 2010 Do the menu options actually function? I don't have vc or 3 installed, nor do I have the controller input requirements to test it. Why would I release something that only does what everyone already knows (enable the menu)? If the menu options are functional, can you post some more pics or a video of it in action? A video showing the use of the functions I know how they work (some are very odd) is now in the original post.

NTAuthority Posted January 25, 2010 Author Share Posted January 25, 2010 Awesome work NTAuthority. Do the play load and save movie options actually work? They read/write a data\movie.dat, though the play option is a bit picky about camera locations and I haven't figured out how to set them correctly.

DexX Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Why would I release something that only does what everyone already knows (enable the menu)? Stranger things have happened here. They read/write a data\movie.dat Is it binary, or text? Could you upload a sample? Could you elaborate on the xinput hack a bit more? Installing 3/vc isn't really an issue, but the controller is. There isn't any way to enable the menu and use it just with a keyboard? I'm diggin' the video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NTAuthority Posted January 26, 2010 Author Share Posted January 26, 2010 (edited) Stranger things have happened here. hehe, but not with me Is it binary, or text? Could you upload a sample? It's a non-text file format, and sure. Could you elaborate on the xinput hack a bit more? Installing 3/vc isn't really an issue, but the controller is. There isn't any way to enable the menu and use it just with a keyboard? Well, I use XInput since it firstly doesn't need any configuration with different button numbers by the application developer, and secondly because it can easily directly map to the internal CControllerState structures. It would be possible to make it use the keyboard, but it'd a) be illogical and b) not able to use the analog 'left stick' axis. I could also have patched the code to use the first CPad instead of the second one, but GTA3/VC for PC do not map the D-Pad values to any key (only SA did that, with G, H, Y and N by default) -- and I already had a lot of code lying around for reading/writing CControllerStates - most of the code is all copied from a SA mod of mine with wrapper stuff added. What's the issue with the XInput requirement? If you have a controller which can map to the required keys, why don't you use the wrapper xinput1_3.dll? (or if not, just hack that wrapper to read keyboard data - it's open source ) Edited January 26, 2010 by NTAuthority Inactive in GTA/R* title modification indefinitely pursuant to a court order obtained by TTWO.

ghost of delete key Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 (edited) (or if not, just hack that wrapper to read keyboard data - it's open source ) SAUCE?! All I find in the zip are the .asi and .dll files. <edit> nvrmnd, I misread your post. But if you feel like sharing Ancient Chinese Secret, let me know. I could really use the info. Again, I've just been beaten to a project on my list. Fark, I'm sooooo far behind.

simkas Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 By hidden, you mean it was actually already in the game? Wow, so is this what Rockstar really use for all the trailers and videos? That's pretty cool. This is like a sandbox mode for GTA3/VC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the MotionInJoy drivers which you likely use, you should select the 'Xbox 360 Controller' mode for the pad to work within this menu.
