Hm strange, I also have "unhandled" while loading island in Ked. Do you know model names which cause this bug?

 

Upd: Problem with "unhandled" is fixed. Download and try new version here:

Thanks man! Much appreciated help. I'll give that a try.

Also... The misplaced objects you asked me are kinda a lot... About half of the map!

Something crazy is that when I load the map to Med, everything seems fine, although the last time i tried, Med crashed... And Ked shows map errors...

 

Do you know any software that can install maps? I tried doing it by hand in gta_vc.dat, but I either do something wrong (I think I do it the right way) or the game just seems stubborn and can't recieve my maps!

 

And thanks again! :})

And, by the way, here's the link to my mod...

Can you show screenshots with misplaced models and errors in Ked?

Ok... I tried the new version, and didn't show any misplaced object errors, thanks!

Now, when I try the map check, it says that some objects should be something else! ex. commer1005.dff should be ferry138.dff!

 

I took a look on gtaforums and I saw the new Stories Map Converter maps on Vice City and successful testing...

 

So looks like I'm doing something wrong... Should I create a new .img and put the .dff and .txd in?

Because what I do is:

1) Convert the files from PS2, with GTA VC output dff, one big txd for all objects, generated IDE/IPL with ID offset 1000 (I have used GTA VC Map Cleaner), blank collision, "Optimise mesh" and gta vc backface culling patcher.

2) Create directory in \data\maps\commer and put commer.ide, commer,ipl and commer.col in.

3) Add all .dff and the big .txd in gta3.img, using img tool

4) Write on gta_vc.dat:

#

# Load IDEs first, then the models and after that the IPLs

#

# everything is loaded on a per directory basis and in alphabetical order

# to improve the speed of loading

#

# Object types

#

IDE DATA\MAPS\generic.IDE

IDE DATA\MAPS\COMMER\commer.IDE

SPLASH loadsc2

#collision data

COLFILE 0 MODELS\COLL\GENERIC.COL

COLFILE 0 DATA\MAPS\COMMER\COMMER.COL

# have to load map.zon before any of the IPLs

IPL DATA\MAP.ZON

IPL DATA\NAVIG.ZON

IPL DATA\INFO.ZON

#

# Scene information

#

SPLASH loadsc3

IPL DATA\MAPS\COMMER\commer.IPL

IPL DATA\MAPS\paths.ipl

IPL DATA\MAPS\cull.ipl

IPL DATA\occlu.ipl

#

# Interiors

#

SPLASH loadsc4

 

But it crashes all the time!

Update. Everything is fine, I just had to put the files into a separate .img
