Popular Post Blackbird88 1,670 Posted December 13, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted December 13, 2013 (edited) This thread was originally created and header was made by @El Dorado The goal of this project is to bring all improvements we can from Mobile to PC, from basic TXD replacements to more hardcore technical stuff. You can check the differences between PC and Mobile versions of certain mods if you open the Spoilers below them Done already: Radar and Weapon HUD icons | @Ash_735 PC Mobile Radar Map | @Ash_735 PC Mobile Vehicle details, Effects, Fonts and Mini-games | @Ash_735 PC Mobile Mobile Post Processing/Reflections/Texture Overlays | @The Hero | Note: Set colorFilter=Mobile / vehiclePipe=Mobile / detailMaps=1 in the desired skygfx.ini PC Mobile Mobile Fences | @El Dorado PC Mobile School Medal Icons | @El Dorado, @Silent, @Blackbird88 PC Mobile CJ With Fingers | @Blackbird88 | Note: cs_hands.dff requires DK22Pac's Mobile Specular Map! PC Mobile Mobile Vegetation | @TJGM, @d3jan Mobile Loading Screens | @Blackbird88 | Improved Loading Screens | | Addon : Mobile Style Loading | Mobile version are original while Improved are more fitting and include legal screen. Mobile loading style adds mobile-like loading bar and fadeouts etc. Mobile Shadows | @DK22Pac Mobile HUD | @DK22Pac | Addon : Mobile Subtitles Mod | PC Mobile Gym Equipment | @Blackbird88 PC Mobile Mobile Cutscene Characters | @Forever L | Note: Requires DK22Pac's Mobile Specular Map! Mobile Specular Map | @DK22Pac Mixtape User Tracks from iOS version | @DalekCaan PC Mobile Mobile Intro Text | PC Mobile Xbox 360 Intro Logo | @Ash_735 And here are all gta3.img textures from android version !!!THIS IS MEANT AS A RESOURCE FOR MODDERS THAT DON'T HAVE THE MOBILE VERSION!!! Silent's ASI Loader is required for any ASI mods. LINK/2012's Mod Loader is recommended to install all the mods especially the ones replacing textures/models to prevent any IMG issues. CLEO library is required for any CLEO mods. What is missing? Mobile Vegetation Some models are still impossible to convert to PC format Mobile Additional Parked Cars This one is mystery since none of the usual files contain anything new. See . What is impossible? Main Menu It'd be tremendous amount of work for pointless eye-candy. Touchscreen stuff Ditto as main menu. If you really want it just get the Windows Store version. Shop UI DK already recreated majority of the Mobile HUD, but this is unlikely to ever come. I'd like to be proven wrong of course. Checkpoints in missions This most likely requires editing SCM and thus breaking all saves for not so useful feature. Honorable mention to @Vadim M. for making nice video that compares both PC and Mobile versions. Edited April 4, 2020 by Blackbird88 115 Link to post Share on other sites

Ash_735 17,280 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 I like how they updated the ones that arn't even used to! Literally like they just handed the file over to someone and said "redo all of these!". 6 Link to post Share on other sites
El Dorado 3,717 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 (edited) New Radar Icons . New School Medals Icons - Thank you SilentPL! Edited December 18, 2013 by format c: 7 Link to post Share on other sites

Silent 15,921 Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 And if a experient modder wants to try to bring these new icons to PC, I'll be grateful. That should be as easy as a simple main.scm edit, without the need of starting a new game at all Link to post Share on other sites
El Dorado 3,717 Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 qoooowe - Iphone SilentPL - So, you're going to look into this? Link to post Share on other sites
Silent 15,921 Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 (edited) I can do that, sure. I hate how the SCM will need to be edited, but there is no other way. ASI/CLEO workarounds would end up being WAY too complex and not worth the effort. EDIT: Mind preparing a TXD file with these included as new textures? Name them whatever you find suitable.

Silent 15,921 Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Seems to work well. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/46581994/samobile_school_medals.zip I've renamed bike school icons and reodered them. Fun thing, SA PC had medals for boat school but it still used a driving school one! I corrected them all. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
El Dorado 3,717 Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Nice work SilentPL, thank you. I got another question, as you probably have seen, the mobile version have some kind of "color improvement". The timecyc is the same as of PC, but it have some kind of filter. One file catch my attention, it's called colorcycle.dat http://www.sendspace.com/file/9zkm9t Can you have a look at this, to determinate if this file controls the "color filter"? And, who knows, if can be included to PC... Link to post Share on other sites
Silent 15,921 Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Is it just me or noaward icon isn't mean to be drawn as a square anymore? At least it looks like it on your screen. Regarding colorcycle, no clue how it could be redone on PC. Probably pretty hard to do so. Link to post Share on other sites
El Dorado 3,717 Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 It looks like this in-game the circle looks a little "eggish" Link to post Share on other sites
Zera 99 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Maybe this is a bit off-topic, but were the weapon icons redone as well? It seemed like it from the screenshots. I already remade those icons myself, but maybe those are better than mine. Link to post Share on other sites
El Dorado 3,717 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Zera, here the png hud icons http://www.sendspace.com/file/cw1289 It would be nice if you can release these icons as a mod 5 Link to post Share on other sites
Zera 99 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 There's no need for me to release such a mod, all one has to do is import those png files using TXDWorkshop. At any rate, I do think those look a bit better than mine. Thanks for sharing those, BTW. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Ash_735 17,280 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 (edited) Again, just proving that they handed the files over to someone to remaster ALL of them, I like how unused stuff is getting an upgrade to. edit: Also like how they have a slight pinkish/purple tone to them now instead of flat out grey, but it seems out of place for San Andreas.

El Dorado 3,717 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 (edited) Yes, something like that, but I haven't found the skateboard icon on mobile. Something interesting, I noticed the trees and palms are a more green in mobile, so I take a look at the textures. The mobile ones are 512x512.

aStiffSausage 147 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Skateboard icon is also re-done, you can find it with name skateboardIcon. Link to post Share on other sites
El Dorado 3,717 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 There are even redone icons for xbox360 and ps3 controls (You can plug a USB control on Iphone/Ipad, right?) . . Lots of other interesting stuff, menu icons . . . . . About the cars, they are a dff and a txd, right? Like, rancher.dff and rancher.txd. Rockstar promissed "improved models" ...

Omega_Is_Here 137 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Nice work format c: Link to post Share on other sites
aStiffSausage 147 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Vehicles are somehow different format when compared to PC, you can't export mobile vehicles to PC but you can import PC vehicles to mobile. Textures for vehicles don't seem to be enhanced at all, and also the model size is lower than in PC. And those menu textures would be nice to have in PC version, though it'd probably need some sort of menu overhaul? Link to post Share on other sites

The mobile ones are 512x512. What is the texture name? Also, Weapon HUD Icons are really amazing: Edited December 17, 2013 by yerisub 3 Link to post Share on other sites
El Dorado 3,717 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 On mobile, there are several png with the same textures, named planta256, planta256_fosterflowers, planta256_vgnglfcrse1, planta256_vgsn_nitree, planta256_lae2coast_alpha, planta256_civic02_lan, planta256_civic01_lan, planta256_cityhall_tr_lan On pc, the planta256 is on a txd called gta_tree_palm, inside gta3.img Link to post Share on other sites
yerisub 12 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 (edited) Thanks. Tried to do comparison with original and modified palm textures. Here is results: Original 512x512 from iOS reduced to 256x256 Edited December 17, 2013 by yerisub 4 Link to post Share on other sites
El Dorado 3,717 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Looks nice. I'll try to find other tree textures, especially these two: . . Link to post Share on other sites
yerisub 12 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 (edited) The palm on the your first screenshot has a texture named kbtree4_test. There is replaced version of the palm on the screenshot: Grove street, home... Edited December 17, 2013 by yerisub 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Silent 15,921 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 the circle looks a little "eggish" Indeed, they must have changed the code. I'll check mobile SCM later and update the link in my last post with a new SCM. Also damnit, these button icons are AMAZING. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Ash_735 17,280 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Personally, at this point, for any higher res stuff, I'd hold off til the Android version where we can get access to the UNC versions, PVR compression is pretty crappy, and with all the artwork updated, we could do a nice little booster mod for San Andreas using the new textures.

El Dorado 3,717 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 (edited) Android version are coming this week? Also, to extract the contents of the iOS version, I just renamed the package to zip and voilá. How it works on android? Also, for anyone interested, the new palms from mobile http://www.sendspace.com/file/68urho Put into your gta3.img using any IMG manager Edit - Anyone knows if is possible to edit the topic title?
