gta 5 converted to iv

[RoadRunner71]

Have the textures a too low resolution compared to the ones of the GTA IV?

...What

 

Well, naturally, yes, the overall average is lower than the PC version would have. Most textures here are just 512x256, 256x256 or lower as it's designed to be streamed in and out of the consoles 512MB.and only needs to display on a resolution of 1280x720. The highest quality artwork is mainly background art which is 1024x512.

no they are the same as far as i can know

 

the engine in iv is ancient history now it's amazing how far the rage engine got starting with red dead redemption

 

the rage engine has always been a favorite of mine and i can't wait to unleash it's full powers on pc

[RoadRunner71]

I've asked that because I had heard a constant collective whining about how bad and low res GTA V textures (mainly the terrain ones) looked.

[sjaak327]

 

Even if it just for fun. In case you haven't noticed, Rockstar hasn't announced the game, let alone released it.

For fun? okay!.. Of course, announcement is pending.

 

Do you have any idea what I was actually discussing about?

 

Obviously, I even quoted your post. Regarding announcement being pending, we can claim that for over three months.

Well the PC version would get a boost, mostly to even things out, those 512x512 and 256x256's would become 1024x1024 and 512x512's, the main boost would come again with artwork, assets, the pc versions tends to be very generous with those, with background art being 2048x2048 and character art being 1024x2048 (512x512 animorphic on consoles).

 

And to be honest, if it's from the PC, there's usually a LOT of whining there anyway.

Amazing project thank you.Mod release date?

[Xerukal]

 

As soon as this thing goes up for download he'll technically be breaking the law. Could be looking at a lawsuit if it gets enough downloads before they shut it down. Rockstar is very protective when it comes to backwards conversions (not to mention they are against the rules on this forum, though that doesn't seem to have stopped this topic).

 

Man, Rockstar is just ruthless to the modding community!

 

LMAO! I love how they just dismissed it so nonchalantly.

 

"That's pretty cool, I guess. Good for you guys!"

I'm gonna bypass all of what's been said and just say the one true reason, Modders are Curious and always looking to prove something. It's always exciting when a new GTA is released or a port because we want to see what versions, changes, etc, have been done to the code, set up, etc. This project, again, not all of us are working on it, is just a proof of concept that we already have tools capable of reading and extracting and even altering the formats that GTAV uses (which is good for the PC version of GTAV as we can hit the ground running unlike that period of slow growth with GTA IV).

 

Porting it over to IV is just a concept to see if we can build and do things with the map and models/textures, etc accurately. Things like vehicles being extracted from the game, that's because people CAN now do it, so why not play around with them in GTA IV for a bit whilst we still wait for GTAV on PC?

 

Well you explained it really well. I wasn't criticizing nor have any right to do so. Just a healthy curiosity to learn more about it. I may not have come out as gentle but I know that my intentions were not against the stuff in this project, so I wanted to ask question since I cannot judge but only doubt whether it's worth all the efforts?

Since you all have way greater knowledge than me I will be interested to see it expanded towards a definitive result(s) :-)

Just in case anyone wanted the GTA V LOD map to play with: http://www.gta4-mods.com/maps/gta-v-lod-to-iv-f25514

Hello, sorry for my bad english (Brazil). I wonder how to convert models XDD. because textuas can extract all, could someone help me convert players for GTA IV? I have all the files of GTA V and I know how to extract from, are models, textures or sounds. (Convert models just do not know).

My quote was forgotten so... are you going to convert peds/characters?

[wahgah]

Credit doesn't matter when someone else is making money for it.

People upload the mods for free on the internet. If they don't want others to make videos off of it and possibily make some money then they shouldn't upload it for free. Simple.

 

You're a modder, are you telling me that you wouldn't be upset if you worked hard on a mod and then someone else made money off of it?

 

 

We actually approached zzcool to make videos from GTAIV: San Andreas. That mod was purely done by enthusiasm by us. If he used advertisements on the videos to make money off of it, that's entirely his choice.

 

And that was your choice. Go ask the creator of Iron Man IV and see how he feels.

 

Do you really think the creator of the Iron Man mod cares? No he most likely doesn't. He's happy so many people are looking at his mod. Think logically instead of trying to make him feel bad for uploading GTA videos. If it wasn't for youtuber's like him most of these mods would be unheard of. So what he makes money off it. You want him to not make money? If you say yes you're an idiot. If there is a chance to make money you'd do the same. He's making money doing what he loves.

 

Yeah, I do think he cares. Mainly because I've seen PM's of ZZCOOL begging him to use his mods. I've also gotten PM's of users on here congratulating me for calling him out.

i never as far as i remember begged him to use his mods

 

what i did do was begging him for forgivness and even offered him money as it seemed thats why he was angry and that just made him more angry

 

why even discuss this here?

 

some people are on his side some are on mine

 

i personally don't think i was mean to him by making a video of his mod

 

i wish i never touched that iron man mod and if i didn't then it wouldn't exist like it is now it would be dead unactive abbondoned as it was when i found it would save myself alot of pain if i didn't touch it

 

besides he only cared about me and noone else because he knows im weak though he and IG is the reason i don't want to live in this world any more i got drunk for the first time in my life because of this so much that i had blurry vision great reason for a first time

 

i wish i wish i never touyched that stupid mod i was willing to make it up to him but he never let me he refused to let me

Now working on Canis Mesa, Vapid Bobcat and other cars

[ZZCOOL]

now it's the entire lod

 

 

 

i am shocked the entire map does fit in gta 4 how?

[NTAuthority]

Either scaled or crazy offsets from the origin point were used, the latter will cause lovely performance issues due to off-screen drawing.

yeah it is scaled it is much smaller than the one in gta 5 but it still is impressive

Entire map? I don't see Mount Chiliad.

Looks a hell of a lot better then GTA V if you ask me. Sure it looks bugged as hell. But at least it has fun vehicle physics. GTA V is just like Saints Row.

So let's start a discussion on how you think Saints Row is bad and how it's a GTA ripoff?

You won't open a secret of import of models from GTA V in 3ds max and a further envelope?

He was just stating that SR has arcade vehicle controls whereas GTA IV had a more realistic approach, then Rockstar just simply changed things in V.

People complain about V's change but honestly, I prefer a driveable fun car in a videogame rather than a car that easily flips.

 

It's a game after all!

 

...right?

It's surprising how crap it looks with IV's lighting system.

Yeap, that's what I was thinking. Luckily there's something called ENB to solve it.
