[Solidcal]

Any plans for next release, Kalvin?

Kalvin said something to me along the lines of the release date being sometime in 2020. D:

So we're f*cked D:

[savidge]

Make two Admirals spawn at Wang's cars. Inside and outside. Done!

Only issue with the one spawning outside is that where it is in the image is exactly where the buy property icon is in game.

i always thought that the Admiral outside was purposely manually parked there by R* instead of it being spawned there by a script. but that's just my assumption and we don't know that for definite.

[just Gesha]

I gotta say that I think the same as Savidge, we can only be sure about the black one inside. Anyway, what caught my eye is that reflection of the red Admiral on the pre-release screenshot, just look at it...

i want to say that it's using the vehicleenvmap128 texture but i think it looks different to that.

Only issue with the one spawning outside is that where it is in the image is exactly where the buy property icon is in game. So Kalvo is gonna move it away from them soon I imagine. Also the Admiral never spawns randomly with it's black colour outside of doing it manually in transfender. So I added it to the Admirals carcols and now it randomly spawns with the black colour too.

 

 

Try to add VC Admiral or add the wheels from VC to the admiral

[Solidcal]

So had a chat with Kalv and decided to include an optional package of...VC converted vehicles using the shaders of GTA SA! Yep your heard it right. An optional package of VC SAfied vehicles. So far I've got the Admiral done.

 

 

Coverted from VC, edited to have the California plates. Will edit the wheels to be like in the beta image. So yeah if people want the VC cars that appears in some proper Beta screens and don't look like placeholders with the original VC reflections on. This will be for you lovely people.

Remember to disable specular on the tires.

They don't have any speculars on them from what I remember.

[just Gesha]

This is caused by SkyGFX.

[savidge]

the tyres in your screenshot do have specular lighting on them. you can see this by looking at the top half of the tyre -- it's brighter (or shinier) than the bottom half.

Hmmm odd as I made sure they didn't get specced up. Will have to adjust this.

This edit is a bit debatable as there are many different screens of the intro with Carl in different outfits besides the vest, jeans and black sneakers he wears in the final game. Either rockstar had a script that allowed them to replay the intro in any outfit they wanted or they went through the various clothing they had, to see what fit. But one common combo of outfit that is seen more than anything is CJ in the blue rockstar hoodie with the biege pants on. In one of the trailers he is wearing this outfit but has the cornrows hairstyle. In "The Introduction" movie he is wearing this outfit but with his default haircut. So again a debatable script edit but one that I think makes sense with how much this outfit was seen before release and in the Introduction movie.

 

 

 

Also this doesn't replace model files, this replaces coding in the main.scm to load CJ with this outfit combo instead of his vest and jeans get up. So you can still buy and wear his default outfit as seen in the final.

That actually works out much better. It would make more sense having CJ dressed for the colder Climate of LC, and having him come Home wearing it.

[Solidcal]

So since Kalvin is off breaking stuff and his game again maybe, here is some stuff that has been done.

 

Fbi Truck now has a turrent (turrent sheilds made by Kalvein and minigun added by me, hard to see cause of the lighting.) Minigun will probabaly be removed as it can't be seen in the bradyguide image, so it'll just be the shields most likely, or it will be optional.

 

And the bar has been removed from the bonnet of the Barracks too. Haven't removed the dirt as I have no idea how to disable it as it is a shared texture between other cars and it is not applied as a seperate texture plane layer like logos and decals.

 

No idea if it's skygfx causing the over shine or not as I did not touch any of the specs or anything. Though I think it appears on the ps2 dff of the vehicle as well.

That APC looks mint.

[BeingARK]

Nice work Solidcal! Btw I think u should work on the jester too! It will be easy u just need to add the grill and change the wheels

[b0ssVenom]

Too much progress to read all of that

Anyways, I stopped working on the beta island about a week after I started because of being busy on other projects. However, starting this easter I will be fully working (hopefully) on the map again.

Actually, beta FBI Truck uses a similar gun found on the Launch boat in SA. If you compare it, you'll see. Minigun has never been used on it.

 

 

Compare to it:

 

 

This mod has recreated it:

 

 

This mod still need some work, since the bottom is not well done...

It's a shame these guns don't work on game, it would be really nice to use them on SA.

^I have sent Kallvin some time ago the same FBI Truck as on the screen but improved, tough mine still needs some work to be done on it. Don't know if Kalvin uses it.

 

Anyway, Solidical will you be able to remodel some cars? Since for now you are playing more with the carcols.

I more or less placed the minigun as it is really not so clear from Bradyguide's image if the fbi truck had a mounted gun. The blurry quality doesn't really help it. But yeah minigun was gonna be a placeholder from me. Will add that mounted gun in it's place later I guess.

I can'r remodel something from scratch like Kalvin has been doing with most of his work, but if someone supplies me with remodeled bits I can apply them to the needed cars. Most of the beta cars can be found in some cutscenes anyway, such as the two doored savanna. I'll be working on that later.

Kalvin write a script to treat the turret as an attatched object which is created alongside of the vehicle.

Then write a script so you can rotate it by moving the mouse and create animations for peds to use.

 

Then you will have my like, pigeon.

 

AND SHOW THE DONUT SCRIPT I SENT

@Solidical

I'm not talking about modelling vehicles from scratch but just remodelling them. For example the Bullet is a car that is slightly different in the beta. Anyway, I haven't posted this in my topic so it will be exclusive here(not for the people who already saw it lol) :

 

 

Since you pointed out the Savanna(wheels are seen only on pre-release videos, otherwise they are left in an interior but are broken)

 

 

 

Edit: Lol just how many times I spammed this car on Skype

God damn it you are stealing my chance to work on the two doored Savanna. Oh well. I'll probabaly rewatch Vladim's video on the beta cars later and see what I can recreate.

I'm just showing, not stealing your chance. Kalvin didn't take you in his team for nothing, do whatever you can, at least for now you did a lot of good stuff
