[WIP][IV] GTA III Rage

[Sebianoti]

i think they are not posting updates becouse when it will be release it will be more fun, becouse we don't know what is new in it, but if we know what is in the mod, it wouldn't be that fun.

so be patient

it's rockstar games all over again

Pretty sure last mod that behaved that way failed.

VCR?

Yup

- This mod is not dead, they just don't have that kind of 'people' person who likes to talk to the community and sharing info or screens.

- I've seen about 20 screens of development of the mod, not for public, problem?

- I can say the progress is well on speed

- VCR has quit because Rage Team split into 2, because RCJ had ideas that the rest of the team didn't like

- RCJ quit modding so now you only get the new Vice City Rage from Quantum and Grimones.

You left out getting the HD version.

[Usman55]

So the new VCR team is getting VCHD into their mod? (sorry for being off-topic, lol but it seems this is the topic right now).

No. New VCR team makes VCR with normal models, well VCHD team updates them to HD. Speaking of VCHD, Blaster I didn't have time to get you the EFLC files. I should have them ready by the end of the week.

[Usman55]

I thought VCHD team was only updating the game to HD and not porting it to RAGE, or are they?

Any news guys ?

Last news was on May 20 2012, it was this pic :

[Squirlkiller]

Yes, it is quite hilarious.

Strange how this "timecyc" has become such a phenomenon over the last few years. I never knew people cared so much about the hue of the sky..!

I think the timecyc has always been something important as it defines the weather and the color correction. A bad timecyc can make a pretty good map look like crap, but it can also be a huge improvement for the atmosphere.

they keep saying soon, soon, then soon never happens.

Indeed

Come on guys, it's time for some news i think !

[Garju67]

Dan currently watch the thread. Maybe some big news coming ?

i hope too, but maybe they are not posting updates untill the mod is finished

Do you guys know how long mods like this take? Its a total conversion mod, it may take years to do something like this. Research Black Mesa, that has a team of people and its took them 8 years and they're still going, and they've had a full team. Granted, they've had to update their engine a few times which is probably why it's taken so long and they've had to do pretty much everything from scratch, but the point is you can't expect a mod like this to have great news on a daily/weekly basis up until release. They're not getting paid for this, this is a hobby for most guys, some to get into a further paid developer job, and not everybody on a team has the same motivation or free time. You don't need to bump threads like this asking for screenshots or news or be demanding, they're working on it. If it dies, it dies, look at how many mods on here (TC's, I'm talking about) actually get completed or as far as a second BETA, very few. Give it time. I'd understand if it was SA to IV because its not that huge a jump (but still an engine jump nonetheless) but they're taking a game from 2001 and putting it in a game from 2008. Think about that a bit.

 

Do what I do, keep it in your bookmarks and revisit it every few weeks/months to see if there's any news on the mods you're interested and then check back again a few weeks/months later rather than pestering the modders for info and news. A lot of the stuff you wouldn't even understand if they did tell you exactly what they were doing, and some would even get upset or disheartened because the progress may not be what they expected. The paths alone are a nightmare, nevermind COL detection, glitches and god knows what else comes with putting Old Liberty City in IV. Be patient.

Dude, your right, but listen: All mods on this forum section show screens on a weekly basis, while progress speed is about the same. So people expect it from this to.

This teams lack a person who cummnicates with the people. If a person like terreur, garju or me would be in it, you would get screens, despite the progress.

@Blaster : Yeah indeed

@xspudx : We already know how making a mod is very hard but we don't asking for a release date, we just asking for some news.

Also we already proposed to be screens maker but ..... :

 

A quick reminder: Garju and I are waiting for our dropbox invites, we haven't got them yet.

Funny timecyc.

Actually I like it. Gives it a unique look.

 

I say keep it!!!

People shouldnt get so fussed about the timecycle really. Its not like you cant install your own and ENB if you want.

That isn't really the point, you shouldn't do that, also not every PC can handle ENB, my PC is a gaming PC built for gaming, i get

50fps on ultra on Battlefield 3 yet when running any ENB on my GTA i get 17 Fps...

How is that possible? You're doing it wrong.

Isn't it because IV a poor PC port?

That's mostly the case but that doesn't explain how certain people with a less powerful PC can run it at a decent framerate

[Kalvin]

It's actually a fact that on a low PC, not low low. More like a Average Computer, even though it lags on IV, it runs a bit more smoother and better on EFLC.

Probably different patches and different settings that arent as noticeable. I get about 10 fps on lowest settings i think at 640x480, but thats because i have an inexpensive HTPC. I can run some modern games on low at at least 20-25 fps on 640x480. So i think its because of IV and not the limitations of your PC (then again, what do i know)

[Sebianoti]

Either way, back on topic which means silence until some news comes... if ever

[JJ_Judge]

Maybe the issue with the fps is because GTA IV is really CPU-dependant, usually needs modern quad-core CPUs, better Intel than AMD.

Anyway, expecting some news too. It's one of my most favourite modding-projects around here, love it.

Okay then nvm, because I have 20-30 fps on my old C2D E6550 with a HD 6850 flmost on max settings Then I have no ideas.

no more offtopic from me
