[REL|SA|CLEO] Phone Service

[Revolution-Designes]

 

Bloody hell man, stop requesting Emmet to sell stuff. Revolution may as well just make an Ammunation Truck service where you can buy anything, except the guns that Emmet sells, because if Ammunation sold the same guns Emmet did there's no use for Emmet

 

Yeah! The Ammunation truck! The guy from Ammunation comes to the player with a truck loaded with heavy weapons like M4, rocket launcher, flame thrower and other heavy stuff! But maybe the player has to go to a location because it would be weird to load out a truck full with heavy weapons in front of a police station or other public place.

 

@rollout: Thanks for all the ideas, they are great! The 911 service will be improved so I think I'll put the ambulance and police car in it. The personal driver is also a good idea, instead of choosing an already chosen location (taxi) you can set a target and go where ever you want to go!

 

Thanks for all the ideas, I'm gonna make one more service for version 0.3 and it will be a requested one. Most of the other remaining ideas and request will be made for the final version, 1.0!

Awesome Good to know that you will make all this

 

Well, I got another idea

 

Tow Truck Service:

A Tow Truck comes to you, the Mechanic comes out and fix your vehicle... Then he go away

[Gramps]

Need a service for when your in the middle of the water, and can't be f*cked swimming ALL the way back to shore .. But you can't really use your phone in the middle of the ocean =/

 

Keep up the good work. Like the sound of the Ammunation truck. It should be only avail. from like 3 diff places per city, away from prying eyes (behind buildings that have heaps of clear open space). Keep it on the down-low

 

Is the last feature gonna be a suprise ??

[Revolution-Designes]

@rollout: Tow truck is also requested a few times, but it's a kinda hard service to make. Don't know if I can make that one. Probably not.

 

@methodunderg: CJ can't use his phone in water. I will make like 2 or 3 places in each city for the Ammunation truck, just as you said. And the last one will probably be a suprise. I also tried to create your 'hail' feature for a taxi, but this doesn't work out. I need to create it as another mod because my phone service script keeps checking if I use the phone menu etc. so another check in it can bring some problems. Besides, when I tried to make it, it didn't work. It's kinda complicated.

 

I'm going to need some time to fix bugs at existing service and improve them. Also other unfinished features will need time. I don't know how long it will take, but you'll see.

Actually, if Emmet sold the same stuff as Ammunation, there'd be no use for Ammunation

 

At least Emmet is cheaper and available early on before you can access Ammunation

 

 

 

 

I think there should be two different weapon services, Emmet's and the Ammunation truck. With Emmet you get a few gang banging weapons at gang banger price, and with Ammunation you get all the weapons available at the store at the same price, maybe a lil more cost for delivery lol

[rollout]

Hey RD... I was searching for a spot to place the weapon dealer (Emmet or Ammunation Guy) and I found this one:

 

 

I like this place because it's like a secret place to do illegal sh*t And I think that every dealer that you put on the mod should be in places like this one

What do you think about the place?

[james227uk]

What the f*ck is up with CJ's face?

[Revolution-Designes]

The place looks great, will use that one. But just what james said, what's up with CJ's face?

[rollout]

It's because i'm runing the game in 1024x768 with Widescreen ON, because I have a laptop... So when I take a Printscreen, the face looks like that... I'm also using CJ Skin Tweak 512 (A very nice mod)...

[james227uk]

1024x768 is not a widescreen resolution, so why are you running SA in Widescreen mode? I'm on 1440x900 (on a laptop), a widescreen resolution, and using Widescreen mode still messes up the picture.

Edited August 3, 2010 by james227uk

[rollout]

My native resolution is 1366x768, and GTA don't have that resolution... So I need to use a 4:3 resolution and activate Widescreen Mod...

 

RD, I found another place... It's a lost village, so there's nobody there... It's a cool place in my opinion

 

@james227uk: I disabled Widescreen Mod for take the screenshots, and as you can see, looks fine

[james227uk]

Yah, Widescreen doesn't seem to work. Even on Widescreen resolutions, it makes everything look "thin"

[Gramps]

@rollout

 

Try this mod here by Ryosuke.

http://hotmist.ddo.jp/plugin/exdisp/index.html

 

Display Settings Extender.

 

Allows you to set other resolutions that your card can handle in GTA:SA.

 

I can get 1900x1200 on my 8500GT.

 

Sorry for the off-topic RD

[james227uk]

Display Settings Extender does not support rollout's native resolution, which is 1366x768

[rollout]

@methodunderg: Thanks bro This don't have my native resolution (1366x768), but it have one with the same ratio (1280x720)... Thanks a lot

 

RD, I think you should put a Emmet Car or Truck in the hood... Like, when we are on a mission or something, we have Emmet right there for sell us guns

 

Like this we just have to go to the back of Johnson's House to get some guns

[james227uk]

What you've got to understand is that missions AND cleo scripts use local variables to store things (The ID of a car, or a ped for basic examples). If RD makes this available in missions, the local variables in this script could conflict with the missions's local variables

[rollout]

Display Settings Extender have my native resolution... I just installed and it have 1366x768

 

Once again, thanks a lot methodunderg

 

@james227uk: I didn't know that But I don't remember to go to that place in any mission... But I don't know anything about that... RD should know

[Revolution-Designes]

That lost village is used in a mission where you have to steal a briefcase or something from the FBI. The whole place is full of FBI agents. It was a mission given by Tenpenny in Las Venturas. Maybe I could put the truck there. About Emmet, I don't think I will put his car there. He already has 2 places where he sells weapons, and making another place is a pain is the ass.

[TigerTanker]

Holy crap!

 

I haven't checked this topic for a week and you've made lots of updates. This mod is getting better and better, keep it up.

RD, about the Tow Truck Service, can't you really make this service? Or at least just come an Mechanic to you and fix you car?

Because this service will be helpful

 

And for people that uses Speedometer + Gasoline, if the mechanic refuel the tank, that would be awesome Because sometimes we are in the middle of nowhere, and we run out of gas

Sorry to be off-topic again But there is a 'jerry-can' mod out there (petrol can in the trunk) on a cpl of exclusive Russian websites. I'm sure you can find it. I don't speak russian, so don't know how to use it.

Also, I haven't found a bug-free speedo+gas mod.

 

I would love a tow truck service mod. The tow truck does need a use

 

Either the tow truck picks you and your car up, and tows you to nearest pay-n-spray.

 

Else, tow truck comes out to you, and then mechanic jumps out and fixes car on the spot. (One of the ones from Doherty Garager) (not all physical damage repaired, just the engine (if possible)) Can't fix major physical damage on the side of the road now can we

 

Keep up the great work RD.

Well, the Speedometer + Gasoline that I'm using it's good... I haven't find any bug yet... And I like the look of the Speedometer... Looks like the 90's BMWs... And an full tank it's enough to drive throw each city...

I'm not going to make a sort of support for a fuel mod, this is almost impossible because I don't know how to link 2 cleo files with each other. And it would make my mod not my own because it has support for someone elses mod. Also, the tow truck is too hard to make, just accept it. I can't make anything you all ask, sorry.

No complaints from me, you're an awesome modder who's giving us an already incredibly awesome mod. Can't wait for the release, this mod is seriously one of the best ever in my opinion, twice as good as the 0.2 version

 

*humbly bows down*

Well, no matter what, you are doing a great work

 

RD, I don't know if this is possible, but can you make a list of CJ's friends (like Sweet, Cesar Vialpando, OG Loc, etc)?

Just like GTA IV, then you can call them and do stuff

 

But I don't know if it's possible to make it

Edited August 5, 2010 by rollout

It's been almost a week since the last activity in the mod, so I decided to give you all an update.

 

I worked on Woozie's service this week, you can call him by selecting his service in the friends phone menu. You will call him and ask for help. After a while a helicopter with 2 triad members arrive. They slide down a rope from the helicopter and will be added your gang. When your gang members are alive, you won't be able to use the phone menu's.

 

Screens:

 

 

 

 

 

I still have to fix some bugs and improve the 911 service. I will try to finish it all this week, so I can release version 0.3 in the next weekend.

[TigerTanker]

Impressive, as always, RD. Good job once again. This mod is coming along nicely

[rollout]

Nice work RD Can't wait for the Final Release

[gangmug]

Great Mod I cant wait for 0.3 and the final release

[Revolution-Designes]

Thanks for the replies. I really appreciate it that you guys take the time to have a look at my mod. And sometimes even want to help me improve it by giving suggestions. Thanks.

 

I have been busy the last few days making some changes and improvements. I have made a small list because I don't have much time now:

• Cesar's service has a menu now, you can now choose one out of 3.
• Pizza Delivery will now restore your health.
• Paramedic from 911 wil come to you in an Ambulance, but he doesn't heal any dead peds.
• More taxi locations added.

I am also planning to make a small customization system for Sweet's service. Don't expect this in 0.3 though.
