Hbx, i can tell that this break you have coming up will be well deserved after all the hard work you have produced and handed out to us.

I have finished !

 

But I got two issues :

 

-Nightlights don't work in EFLC !?

-A road doesn't appears in EFLC...

 

But I don't have time to investigate in it... You'll have to bear it !

 

[ViceDiaz]

take your time.

nice work.i can't wait to see it fully built.

 

also i reconize these stairs.they survived the collapse.they were located inside 5 WTC.It lead to the mall.but now relocated at the WTC memorial plaza.

 

 

You are wrong, these are not the interior stairs. They were plaza access stairs at the side of WTC5 ,not inside

 

Images that prove this:

 

 

 

(Note the subway entrance and small door, visible on the pre 9/11 and post 9/11 shots)

I just installed the latest version, and while loading, the game crashes. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it, still no good. I restarted my computer, still no good. Uninstalled it, and the game is obviously now back to normal.

 

 

I'm not sure what went wrong, I did installed it to the directory it needed to be in... I even tried a manual install for the second time instead of letting it do it on its own. I'm using patch 1.0.0.4, it's my favorite one so far, I'd be bummed out if this was the problem. I had an idea for a pre-9/11 IV mod and everything. (Was about to ask permission as well. But if I can't get it to work, then I guess I can't do the mod at all.)

[richardsimpo123456]

It works fine for me. Although some of the things you said have been fixed, havent on my side. Like the cars driving in the plaza and falling peds. TheTomster, did you install into the EFLC folder? Thats what i done and it works fine.

I'm not using EFLC man... it's regular IV. I also downloaded the one for regular IV. I specified patch 1.0.0.4 anyways...

[_Charger_]

in two hours i will test the wtc 1.62. i'll say which bugs i found.

 

EDIT: game crashed at loading before i was ingame. but i got a backup of whole game, but it sucks. maybe it works on your pc because only the installer is corrupted?

[hbx84]

Which version are you using ?

[_Charger_]

game? 1.0.4

[hbx84]

Can you restore water.dat ? I think it is what is causing game crashes

[_Charger_]

if u can wait 15 mintues i will try that

btw could you make a rar version next time? i don't like mods with installer because of restoring files.

 

EDIT: game chrashed with original water.dat. could u tell me all files u changed becaus ei don't wanna overwrite all files, that needs so much time.

-Here the list of the modified files :

In pc/data/maps/manhat/ : manhattan02.ide

manhattan02.img

manhattan02.wpl

manhattan02.xpl

In common/data/ : cj_gta.dat

cj_images.txt

gta.dat

images.txt

water.dat

 

Or first try to delete all the wbd cols from the wtc archive ! Eflc crashed because of them, maybe it is the same for 1.0.4 version...

What exactly does the WTC folder do? Will the towers show up without this folder?

 

 

I said of this crash earlier. I'm using 1.0.0.4. And indeed I think the installer is corrupted as well, can you upload just the files?

[hbx84]

Lol the WTC folder contains all the files of the WTC complex. Without it you'll get an awesome black hole in southern manhattan ^^

 

I think I'll make an archive without the installer but first I'd like to figure out why it crashes with this version

Lol I figured about that much! Worth asking anyways...

 

 

What did you add in this version that is different from the last? I'd download the old one, but I don't have too much time right now, and I really really want this one to work... teleport script and everything sounds amazing.

 

 

I'm sure you'll get it working, take your time!

[_Charger_]

openiv shows up correctly. i only know two bugs which could make that

error in the files in common/dataor in ide/wpl.

 

i rebuilt all colls, are smaller now (you only export with shadows plugins) there seems to be a bug. but know i hope it work, only problem, i don't know which files u changed in manhat_2.img

tested with rebuilt ones, crash. but i only rebuilt wtc.img

 

tell me or pm me what u changed in manhat_2.img

 

 

 

EDIT: bug found

 

wtc.wpl is totally corrupted!!! u use shadow mapper. but shadow mapper don't save the names right in wpl, so all objects are unnamed and crash.

Edited December 19, 2010 by _Charger_

[noelgamo]

@charger then why does it work for him.. lols its not the WPL

its the files inside manhattan02.img

 

This is what GTARandom told me

GTARandom's way

 

Here's how i got it to work:

 

first make a folder in data/maps and name it wtccomplex, than put WTC.ide , WTC.wpl and wtc.img in that folder.

 

After rename all WTC files to wtc , so instead of WTC.ide and wpl have wtc.ide and wpl.

 

Than go to common/data and open gta.dat with an notepad and add a line in IDE platforming maps (map files) :

 

CODE

 

IDE platform:/DATA/MAPS/WTCCOMPLEX/WTC.IDE

 

in IPL

 

IPL platform:/DATA/MAPS/WTCCOMPLEX/WTC.IPL

 

 

After that open after saving gta.dat ; images.txt and add this line:

CODE

platformimg:/data/maps/wtccomplex/wtc     0

 

 

If it crashes again its either compatiblity as i said or one of manhat02 files (img streams) causing this.

 

 

Hope it works.

 

 

@HBX i think the problems are because of manhattan02's stream files I remember GTARandom telling me this

[TheTomster]

So are we getting closer to fixing the problem here? I'm looking forward to this. I wish I could help, but I have no modelling ability to be honest, at least when it comes to buildings.

[hbx84]

It isn't the wtc.wpl which is corrupted. I don't use SM to place my models ingame, but yea if I load this wpl with Shadow Mapper it gets completely messed up...

 

I will reinstall GTA IV today with the 1.0.4.0 patch, it will be easier to find the bug !

 

 

 

Edit : Arf there are the 1.0.4.0 and the 1.0.0.4 patches...

First I'll install the 1.0.4.0, it is older than the 1.0.0.4...
