VC Released Maxo's Vehicle Loader

[maxorator]

Game crashes instantly when starting a new game or loading a save, any idea why? (game is modded too, btw)

 

 

MVL Error Log: http://pastebin.com/DwZc8g7h

 

Can you check which mod causes this to happen? Perhaps by trying to disable some of them. Also, is your exe modified?

 

Once I know which mod it doesn't get along with, I can probably do something about it.

Deleted almost every single mod I had and still got a crash. Tried with an original exe and still crashes, same error too.

 

EDIT: Also, deleted all vehicles and weapons I had with MVL, didn't make a difference.

 

EDIT2: Decided to start on a clean game again, but now MVL disables all my CLEO mods for some reason, removing it and they all work again.

 

EDIT3: Okay, so it turns out starting a new game disables all the CLEO mods, loading works fine though.

Could you add some features from VCMP into MVL like the interior loading or something? I remember you and I discussed it during the second public beta of VCMP 0.4. I'd love to see the interior loading with MVL.

Yeah, can do. I had forgotten about it, will probably include in the next version.

Didn't the error log contain a module list? Also, can you perhaps send the save game that crashes?

http://www.speedyshare.com/ZVq6c/GTA-Vice-City-User-Files.7z All the saves that crashes.

about errorlog.txt, that's all what was in the file

Maybe it's because of save anywhere cleo script?

Those save files loaded fine for me. You can try this version, which fixes CLEO scripts not loading on new game, not sure if it also affects your problem (replace the dll in mvl folder):

Works great! Thanks!

 

I have small idea, maybe can you add ability to add new peds like adding new cars? we can assign them to groups(cops, swat, gangs, normal people)?

Just checking too see what's what with the mod so far. Nothing to report but the mod seems to be behaving for me now. (Although it would still wanna crash when I picked up two hidden packages, so to collect them all I had to remove the mod).

 

But other than that it's fine.

Can you elaborate on the hidden packages crash? Does it happen on any two collected packages or some specific ones?

Why are the weapon models darkened when using real-time shadows?

Why are the weapon models darkened when using real-time shadows?

 

Never noticed such an issue. Do the actual weapons look darker when real-time shadows are enabled?

Indeed, they do. It's more noticeable if you use high quality model replacements.

The latest version works great, issues i mentioned before are gone now. Also, MVL contains a fix for cleo, which allows to load save from already loaded game. I just checked, and it seems like it doesn't applies to a new game.

To reproduce the crash:

MVL+CLEO.asi: load save. die. after spawning in the hospital - start new game. Error log - http://pastebin.com/p6NhJ9rW

MVL: same actions, works fine.

 

Can this also be fixed?

Yeah, that's another thing that happens even without MVL. I'll probably collaborate with CLEO developers to get a fixed version of CLEO out instead.

I can confirm this. Notice how dark the gun is with MVL compared to without it.

Small update.

 

CHANGELOG OF 0.98d

• Automatic interior switching option (doesn't fade in or teleport), which is also teleport-safe (global.xml setting "autointeriors").
• Fixed an issue with compatibility with some other modifications (CLEO and others).
• Fixed weapons being darkened when using real-time shadow for player.

Thanks for adding the interior switching! Gonna test this on the GTA LC mod to see if this works on it.

 

EDIT: When I went into the Malibu Club and exited, everything was foggy. It seems the game detected I was inside when I was outside, vice versa.

Sure. The packages it first happened on were the first two on this map.

I would get the first package no problem, but only seconds after collecting the second package it would crash. If I got the first one no crashes, I waited just standing there for a few minutes and no crash, until I got the second one. It would crash whether I got it right away or waited.

 

It even worked the other way around, causing it to crash.

 

One odd thing was, I could avoid the problem by collecting package 3, then getting 2, then getting 1 and it wouldn't crash (at least it didn't for me now).

 

Sometimes, it would crash on getting package 4 first, then going down to 3 and 2 and 1.

 

Other than that I hadden't noticed any problems with packages. So I try them again without the mod and I got them all with no crashes. I put the mod back in after collecting them and everything seems to be fine again. I remember dreading the rain, it would crash usually just before it ran out or a little time after. I wouldn't get any crashes at all as far as I can rememeber when not going for packages.

Really? I can see them just fine.. weird, besides the problem is fixed now so it doesn't matter.

 

Anyway, really nice update Max.

[Xegethra]

And new problems. Againt it seems to happen under heavy rain. It happens mostly on vigilante, not letting me complete it. I have an error log this time

*edit*

Ok really seems to be a rain problem, or it could just be a coincidence....but every crash so far has been when it is raining. I would cheat the rain away but I am trying to do a playthrough for YouTube....luckily I am not recording the trips inbetween missions, but I am recording any drives within them....so if it rains then, I don't wanna cheat on camera. I know it's only weather, but a cheat is a cheat. I guess the run of no crashes was a bit of luck for me, because now rain will just kill it every time.

I don't see any difference between "autointeriors" enabled and disabled. How does it work exactly?

It removes the fading in/out transition of entering/exiting an interior. So it loads as you walk in, similar to IV.

Strange, why is your game loading "mss/vehmod.flt"? Since 0.98c it should load "mvl/vehmod_retail.dll" instead. If the vehmod.flt file in mss folder is left over from a previous version, it's getting loaded instead of the new version. You should probably delete that file.

Actually it's 4! It happens when you have the "trashbin" turned on in config, because I wanted to test how it destroys multiple helicopters in a row. I should probably make it a separate setting somewhere I guess.

I figured what i did wrong, everything works now. Also i noticed this with interiors option:

 

P.S. Vice Cry runs with MVL limit adjuster only, plus stream memory fix. Cool.

I hope this can be fixed in the next release:

- crash when pressing alt+tab if windowed set to false

- I use 640x480 resolution to make low quality (to speed up game performance). But while playing in windowed mode the quality is high. I want to play in low quality

I'll check if I can reproduce the crash.

 

About the windowed mode, it is not possible to have a resolution that is different from the window size.
