What? That reply wasn't even for you. Or did you forgot to log out from your main account and switch to your second account to answer me? I lol'd.

 

EDIT:

Sorry for the off-topic Silent haha!

I was actually annoyed by that formatting and I'd sure criticise someone because of this. Well, not now.

When using comprule 4fff in default.ide/vehicle.ide the 6th extra will never spawn.

I looked into this and apparently only VC and SA are affected. III does not have such a comprule.

Happy Birthday SilentPatch! On December 29th 2013, the very first SilentPatch builds were released!

 

For this occasion, new builds have been released for GTA III, Vice City and San Andreas! For the first time the releases have received a name! Due to the amount of fixes related to coronas and lights, this release has been dubbed “The Corona Update”:

 

 

This time I put quite a bit of effort in nicely documenting changes, but forum's BBCode will never allow me to post something as fancy, and thus...

 

For details and a changelog, CLICK HERE to check a release post on my blog!

Enjoy and see you in 2020!

IPL Carry Over Glitch in San Andreas - The standard "text IPL" pickups for Extinguishers in fast food joints and Sniper Rifle near the Cropduster above the San Fierro Airport are only added to the map when a new game is started when the game has just started. These pickups are missing when a new game is restarted after loading a previous save.

 

This issue also effects unused sections in text IPLs, such as CARS and JUMP. This limits the usefulness of these seldom used modding strategies.

 

I have noticed no problems with car generators from binary IPLs. The issue appears to be limited to text IPLs.

 

Extinguishers: Burger, Pizza and (unused) Donut (gen_int5.ipl)

IPL pickups are type 2, they respawn quickly

Sniper (countryw.ipl)

Added: I always considered these to be SCM issues but perhaps the SP can help...

Can the blocking radius of cargens be modified so the airstrip hunter and leviathan can spawn at the same time on a standard game?
Is there a way to stop the Bayside Vortex from ghosting into the bay and sinking when it spawns?

What a time to be alive and see this god sent update right here. Those fixed coronas, especially with the GTA3 firetruck looks so good.

Hi,Silent, I'm from Russia, so I apologize for my English. In short, after the last update, I had broken shadows in San Andreas, although in the previous version everything worked, there was a large square of shadow around CJ that covered the rest of the shadows, I don't know why this happened. I have a Steam version, the latest version of SkyGFX, Project 2dfx, and a widescreen patch. Please help.

Are you sure you don't have any other mod? I don't have that problem

Particle.txd у тебя модифицированный, скорее из за этого. либо с 2dfx напортачил в настройках (его править надо, чтобы нормально использовать)

Nice update. thx for implementng the fix for extra6.

 

It would be nice though if it was possible to disable the fix for the siren placement indvidually for each affected vehicle. otherwise there is no good option if using only some vehicles that account for the misplaced sirens.

 

and some other minor stuff about sirens.

1. the sirens on the dashboard (Rancher, Washington, Cheetah) arent visible from behind (also without silent patch). You can see them if looking through the windscreen (0 degrees) up until 90 degrees (like the side view) but looking at the siren from behind makes it invisible.

2. I know it's not the fault of silent patch but just to let you know. FBICarRandomiser also changes something about the sirens and the positions of the FBI Rachcher sirens remains the same when using it.

I considered it, but so far I am not sure how to do this without making the config file a total mess.

That's intended, although I guess the viewing angle could be a bit wider.

That mod also tampers with sirens, so in a way it works perfectly as intended - SilentPatch notices that siren code for these vehicles has been tampered with and bails out gracefully, so there is no conflict.

the same way  [RotorFixExceptions], [DoubleRearWheels] and [LightbeamFixExceptions] are done I would suggest. Just have the fix disabled for the car whose ID is added to the ini. I mean the SA config file does not look like a mess to me...

 

thx for considering it in the first place btw.

While this technically makes sense, there are some technical obstacles for that I explained on Discord, so let me just copy it instead:

 

Quote

it's that in order to resolve that "ok, ID 555 is that vehicle" I would need to patch those way way way later
on process startup I just don't have this information available
THAT SAID, since sirens are hardcoded to ID's anyway I could map this myself
and assume that '400' is police car etc. etc. etc.
that is an option
so in other words, lie and don't ask for real vehicle ID's but for the ones I hardcoded

@Silent: Okay, so I know it's a sin to request something from you because you work independently. I'll most likely be pelted with lots of sarcasm and insults after this post. Well, don't mind if I ask you to fix this:

When the player wields a weapon, the player character uses the proper one-handed or two-handed movement animations intended for the weapon. When the pedestrians wield a weapon, no such thing happens. They just walk, run and sprint around as if they're holding nothing. It just looks so god-awful...

VCS has this fixed, so... why not III, VC and SA?

Thank you. However, I'd like to see the aforementioned bug fixed with SilentPatch, and besides, it's much better to have all essential fixes under one roof instead of having so many separate fixes lying around everywhere.

[Maks_Grain4]

It would be great if this fix were in silent patch (Framerate Vigilante - https://www.mixmods.com.br/2019/06/framerate-vigilante.html)

It is a hole in the game's code, which must be SilentStitched.
