So if you want GTARandom, send me all the files of your working towers (wdr, wtd, ide, wpl) and I ll see if it was because of my texture or something else...

[ipman66]

good idea

 

[EncryptedReality]

Ok ill send it , let me get the files ready.

Sent.

Its good to see this in-game problem is fixed (i hope ). I dont think the COL's missing is such a bad thing, will we see a beta soon? im shaking with anticipation!!

[hbx84]

THAT IS WORKING !!!

 

 

 

 

Remain to understand why that didn't work from my side…

I hope just that is not manhat02 which causes this bug…

 

And what is odd also, is it that according to the angle from where I look at the towers, sometimes they disappear!? Do you know why it does that, GTARandom?

[ViceDiaz]

looking good sofar.

[ipman66]

Thanks^^

 

 

yea   coooool sofar  

AMIZING>>>>>>

No that's a test texture from GTARandom^^

 

and I know for the size, they seem to be small but normally they are well scaled... I think it s the view which makes that but I ll verify tomorrow

looks like things are coming along very nicely. I can't wait to see the finished towers. Is that the actual in game hight you plan to make them?

I ll make the towers as tall as the reality... So normally they should be a little higher than ESB. I'll verify it tomorrow

 

Or maybe is it GTARandom who resized them ?!

[.:Macrae:.]

Wow they look incredible!! Hey maybe you should ask GTARansom about creating a shadow for the towers like he did with that SA factory that would look awesome as!

[hbx84]

The shadow are already here !

 

Edit : but we can't see them on the first screenshot, I don't know why...

[TRUETK]

I was just about to ask about that lol

[.:Macrae:.]

Thats odd. Hmm, must have something to do with draw distance or something

Lol, same here. I can give you the complete blueprints to the WTC if you need them, i picked them up last year. But if you want them, your going to use up ALOT of your internet since they are on about 16 or more CD's and the total size is a few gig

[ViceDiaz]

I already have the Port Authority WTC blueprints.thanks though.

[XTREME0235]

***WE NEED A BETA RELEASE!***

 

Please

That's a bug in the dff2wdr converter. I am still looking into that. For the shadows they should appear autmatically. If you want the towers to reflect in the water you should increase the draw distance a bit. Not sure how high it should be to reflect.

But the EBS is further away and its reflecting. I think theres something else that has to be done

[amd74]

it is nearly over

YOU ARE THE BEST

WOOOW

IT LOOKED AWESOME THERE AND WHAT WAS it? WAS IT AN EXTRA ISLAND?

WOW

I AM TOTALLY IMPRESSED

WHEN IS THE FIRST RELEASE?

Lol indeed it was, except he removed the Statue of Happiness for some reason

[unopescio]

f*ck man, it looks great, and finished in about 1/100 of the time that the SA team took It should definitely be placed on the main island though.

 

Also, use this to scale the buildings correctly, use whatever the empire state building in gta4 is called as a comparison point to the WTC.

And it looks like the model is better too AND this one even has the plaza!! truely amazing stuff. I cant believe how fast this happened, i thought this would take weeks but it almost completed in under a month except it wont be 100% until COL's are figured out

[EncryptedReality]

PrinceLink explained it in overall

And about shadows invisible from certain points of view , is caused by their LOD number being too low

Edited March 2, 2010 by GTARandom

[Shadow-Link]

If you want the towers to reflect in the water you should increase the draw distance a bit. Not sure how high it should be to reflect.

But the EBS is further away and its reflecting. I think theres something else that has to be done

That's because the Draw distance VALUE of the EBS is higher or the draw distance of the LOD associated with it.

[amd74]

a beta version doesn't need to be perfect it just shows that it is possible

this is real mod and i am sure that some day we will have the building in our games with no problems

[hbx84]

Ouch too much messages !! x)

 

Thank you for the attention you have for my mod^^

 

I will redo tests tonight and I will make a list of all the problem I meet. I'll of course verify the scale of the towers.
