RussianCommie Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Just wondering, how big is the chance of R* patching character modding? Some chance, I would assume. They patched the method where you were able to collect those briefcases underwater, switch between characters, and the case would be there again to be picked up. I have no idea why they patched it when It's SP and you could do nothing with the money that is related to GTA Online. Mokrie Dela 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlasmicSnake Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Whats the name of the fat bikini lady? Also curious if IG is ingame and CS is cutscene what do the other abbreviations stand for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Deadite Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 So, is normal saving safe? You can't save the game when playing as modded character. If you attempt to load a save after saving with modded character, it will load infinitely. Just wondering, how big is the chance of R* patching character modding? Why would they? it doesn't affect Online and also hex editing vehicles has been a thing for a few months now and they haven't patched that.

I'm wondering if they can make some sort of "mod detection" in order to patch character modding Simple, make it to where the game always reads the ped entries from the data files them self. That way no character mods via hex editing would work. Edited July 19, 2014 by theNGclan WildBrick142 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildBrick142 Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Because I cant login online. You would still have to go Online. It doesn't matter if you do the save yourself or someone does it for you, once the save is loaded you will be always frozen with currently the only way to fix it is by going online and exiting to SP through character wheel.

The only difference between hex editing vehicles and characters is having to be signed into PSN or Xbox Live to be able to go into Online and out so you unfreeze the character. Whatever fix, if any comes, I would think this would be the main thing taken into consideration. WildBrick142 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever fix, if any comes, I would think this would be the main thing taken into consideration. The real difference is how the game handles the vehicles. As vehicles are stored in a primary location, peds are not. Peds are controlled via ped entries and the save mods are just overriding their call. Vehicles can be changed because they are customizable objects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought you loaded it and it was frozen in place and then you connect to GTA Online. I was gonna see if I could find a way to do it offline. Oh well.

To unfreeze the character, you go into an online session and exit out to unfreeze the SP character, after exiting out, you spawn as whatever character's HEX you used.

You can check OP's post on the first page, click the link that he provided for where he found the glitch, and there is a video of everything to do. You can look it over and see If you missed a step.

It worked in GTA 4 perfectly, you could even buy the hats/glasses that came with the ped. Someone should try this with Lamar, as he was originally intended to replace Franklin after ending C, according to some rumors and "beta" findings. There is a possibility that they still left his clothes as available for purchase in the stores.

theNGclan Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Clothing stores don't work, but I do have good news. Theoretically, for the characters that are missing body parts you could make their model load for the upper parts of the protagonists. So you could mix and match pants/shoes.

archiebunker Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Man, looking at the NPC selfies makes me wish GTAO had that kind of body and face variation for protagonist character creation, instead of using stock bodies and limited facial features.

Delta India Echo Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Just to save the trouble of people trying out the IG characters to talk. If they follow you in missions, or you can hang out with them. There chances of talking when pressing right d-pad is 100%. If they only appear in cutscenes (Lazlow technically never leaves the car during normal gameplay) and only says scripted stuff, they will never talk.

RussianCommie Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Everything within the save editor can be used as normal also, correct? If I had a car in one of the character's garages that is not attached to their safehouse, I would be able to use the NPC and be able to get the car also, since technically I'm playing as one of the SP characters just reskinned.
