HeresOtis Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 A little more explanation, I wasn't at your home to see how you have installed the mod. I installed it using Alci's and rebuild every 4 folders of files I imported. I replaced my Maps folder with yours and all the buildings and streets appear white, while some streets are still the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLlTZ Posted February 22, 2012 Author Share Posted February 22, 2012 Please, don't tell me that you installed only 4 folder ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gramps Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 I think he means he imported 4 folders; then rebuilt archive.. then did another 4.. and so on. I got the white textures after I didn't put in the 'Srt3 Lod Textures'; but since this isn't the DLC, I don't think it matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacko427 Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Night vertex colors can be added with Zmodeler2.That tool is called Prelit color. It adds the night vertex color so in SA that object will be dark like it should be. Okay, but what about day vertex and do I have to add myself the colors because it is the same thing with 3DMax so I'm exactly from where I started. What did I do wrong if my my environment is appearing white? A little more explanation, I wasn't at your home to see how you have installed the mod. Fix Fortcarson, I'm falling out of the ground, and I can run thru buildings... Fort Carson doesn't have any problems as I haven't modify any object or collision in that location. I made test right now. The vertex colors are likely default to the SA colors. You can try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futureAllrounder Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Old savegames don't work with that? I did everything you told us, but every loading time is much slower now. I installed the LOD mod with Alcis IMG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aStiffSausage Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Old savegames don't work with that? I did everything you told us, but every loading time is much slower now. I installed the LOD mod with Alcis IMG. Of course they work. The loading times are now slower and your FPS might drop because there's no more Low quality models of buildings and landscapes which are far away, which makes the game run slower as it has to render way more stuff than it used to.

futureAllrounder Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 I noticed, that I installed the mod on a copy with one changed main.scm. This is why, I couldn't use my normal saves. Great mod, but is it finished? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aStiffSausage Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Testing on SA-MP and found some bugs, some part of Los Santos don't have Lod textures *PICS* That's because it's SA:MP.

LugiazSoul Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Testing on SA-MP and found some bugs, some part of Los Santos don't have Lod textures SAMP doesn't allow custom maps. This mod is for Single-player only. I think so. You guys know what I mean. Just drop the XFiles in and its fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magnum-WG Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 (edited) -BLITZ- , Why it isn't necessary? I think your instruction is too hard for some users. And i think mixed COL-files are better than original from the .Lod Mod. Edited March 15, 2012 by magnum-WG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLlTZ Posted March 14, 2012 Author Share Posted March 14, 2012 Unconscious person that you can be. What you are doing now is modding mods without having permission whatsoever on them, giving links with your personal changed mods, isn't call for nothing personal home use. Don't respect the rules giving to the author, you don't end up well, and from when you take shots here when staff of this forums clearly had erased the post. You think they don't understand this ? For the record, do you have any idea how many mods I can release for each mods that exist, just because I know how to mod. This is not my business to release them, either you.

magnum-WG Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Mmm, ok. This version was made by the request. It's like a patch, but i thought that it'll be easier for the installation to compare PO&this corrections. About permissions, your .Lod Mod is required to be installed, then this archive may be installed. Do you care about some your collisions, which doesn't make sense w/o the .Lod Mod. I'm not the author of PO, but i made this compatible with your mod version. And as you said, is every person who made personal fix for PO or .Lod Mod a thief? So if the answer is yes, we have a lot of stealers in our community, haven't we? And of cause, if you say that, all SA modders are stealers because they hack original SA files by Rockstar Games. I made this version of PO for users, with this every user can play with your mod and PO together. So as a result, this version of PO makes .Lod Mod more popular for PO users, because the installation is easier, doesn't it? ..huh, ok. This is your mod, and your topic. I respect for your work, your mod is great. If you don't like this archive, you're welcome. I won't put the link on this forum anymore. Thank you for the discussion, Good luck to you.

BLlTZ Posted March 26, 2012 Author Share Posted March 26, 2012 (edited) Do you know how much win could you possible gain R* if you would made a patch/a new .exe version having more limits Right now I'm in the monsters belly of SA in order to get this. Seriously, there are III & VC limit tools and not SALA with d3d9.dll and tens of crashes and nobody can make for SA version after all this time. Is really that encrypted ?

BLlTZ Posted March 26, 2012 Author Share Posted March 26, 2012 That is already in the mod. I couldn't release it if I wasn't doing the method. Actually I found a way to not merge any kind of object, now I can add objects into the game without braking any limits. Vegas is completed with DD on trees without braking any limits here aswell and half goes to SF. So far I just go with the progress now, but if anything goes wrong, I quit until any tool will be made for limits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLlTZ Posted March 27, 2012 Author Share Posted March 27, 2012 (edited) Wow, I really forgot the reason that I started this is related to what you are saying. Awful, very awful to play without trees. This is not so simple because I need to delete every tree with Med Editor and put them back each of them in IPLs coordinates Such a nightmare. Another thing is, I found out that some objects didn't require merge, duplication, just set some settings and the objects could work in both worlds without messing around with 3DMax and Col. files. So far Vas Vegas, San Fierro and Desert are okay. Country & Los Santos next. Edited March 27, 2012 by -BLITZ- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to get it even if only 5 trees are where xD So if both sf and lv is done/nearly done then please release it even if you can't fix more trees. And thanks for this great mod so far I'm looking forward to not die anymore^^ Also don't rush it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLlTZ Posted April 6, 2012 Author Share Posted April 6, 2012 Yeah, update not version. Trees ? I broke the game ending up in LS Hills. Country, Desert, Las Venturas, San Fierro had trees, remain only with Los Santos. Limit adjuster doesn't help because I broke the game, well actually I like to say broke because I hit the game-of-the-game limit and Limit Adjuster crashes with other maps limiter tools. This can happend only if someone will make a draw distance limiter, making all the Non-lods fulling working in both worlds. Issue is that above 4000 IPLs added only for trees, is logic to crash. Problem is that in STREAM.IPL - gta3.img what's there are non-lod stuff and if I put something there it works, no problem, but if I transform into a LOD they don't appear in the game even so Med Editor can see them, that's why you see only LOD objects in data/maps/IPLs. So for LOD is maps/IPL but I broke the limit and for non-LOD are in STREAM.IPL After adding so many missing objects in Lod mod I think I used a lot of IPLs and it's possible that I could make, not sure only working in Las Venturas and San Fierro and possible Desert. I will give a shot by deleting all the trees in game from STREAM.IPL and add on maps/IPL hopping that somehow deleting them give space for what I will add. No worries, new IPLs can work in both worlds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
