Inadequate 3,703 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Well, I know this is a Vice City thread but here is the PS2 GTA III - Cochrane Dam rock texture fixed for PC, for anyone who wants it. Before After Download 7 Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Jago 2,706 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 (edited) going through and fixing some animations, list of what I've done: fixed one frame in the minigun/flame thrower animation where tommy's arms twitch to the left imported some animations from PS2 including the weapon idling stances, some woman walking animations created a new idle animation for the rocket launcher, so it matches the others and isn't just one plain pose fixed one of the death animations so the last frame is exactly the same pose as a normal corpse and isn't off added an idle animation to the knife so it isn't just one pose, made using the fist-fighting stance modified the talking and head-scratching animations so the legs stay in one place things that are more general improvements than fixes per se: replaced the "shot in the stomach" death animation with the one from GTA 3 because it's more visually interesting replaced one of the jogging animations with one from GTA 3 because both of them were exactly the same originally, now women and men jog differently things I plan on doing: fix the passenger animations for the bikes so the pose doesn't flicker to a different one when someone jumps on replace the female stance with one converted from GTA 3, as it seems to the same one but sloppily converted find more animations that are different on PS2 (if there are any) find a way to make the unused "sword" animation group function, so tommy holds the katana with two hands instead will upload something soon™ Edited March 30, 2015 by Mr. Jago 5 Link to post Share on other sites

TWIST_OF_HATE 358 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Let`s running with the night in Vice City ! I`m sure there are a lot of useful stuff for VC, but I would like to read more detailed information about these fixes. Can someone write just a little general description for every mod in the main post ? Link to post Share on other sites

I`m sure there are a lot of useful stuff for VC, but I would like to read more detailed information about these fixes. Can someone write just a little general description for every mod in the main post ? PS2 Particles Replaces the particles with their PS2 equivalents. The PC version normally recycles the textures from GTA 3, when they're supposed to have completely new leaves, newspapers, fire effects etc. PS2 Weapon Names Rolls back some attempts by R* to avoid copyright infringement by giving the weapons their original names. The Kruger is now called the Ruger, the .357 the Python, the Pistol the Colt 45 etc. TEXTURES PS2 Auntie Poulet Gives Auntie Poulet her PS2 texture, which has a purple outfit instead of a yellow one. PS2 wfyg2 Replaces one of the groupie peds with her PS2 equivalent, which looks completely different. PS2 Posters Replaces the Vice City tourism ad in the Ocean Drive hotel room with its PS2 equivalent, which depicts a seagull flying over a lighthouse instead of an ocean liner. Butcher poster fix Adds a picture of a butcher in the window of Carnicero Romero, which was present in the PS2 version. PS2 Ruger texture Replaces the Ruger's texture with its PS2 equivalent, which has a wooden receiver (don't know if that's the right terminology) instead of a metal one. MODELS PS2 Weapons Replaces the weapons in the game with their PS2 equivalents, which includes slightly different models and different textures (like a wooden receiver for the Ruger). Might make the texture directly above redundant. MAPS Corona IDE fix Removes some extra bits of light around Ocean Drive that apparently served no purpose. Spotlight IDE fix I think this made it so spotlights can be seen from any distances on the map. Construction IDE fix Fixes a bug with the construction site where once it was destroyed in "Demolition Man", the normal version of the building would still render over the wrecked one. Might fix the draw distance, too. Howlin Pete's fix Fixes some transparency effects with the storefront of Howlin' Petes Biker Emporium. Fixed Havana shop I believe this one adds some details that were missing from the PS2 version of the game. Golf Flag 1st hole fix On the PC version some of the golf flags at Leaf Links have messed-up texture mapping, which results in a really stretched texture. This fixes that. AUDIO PS2 Flash FM with "Running with the Night" Replaces Flash FM with a version from an early copy of the game on the PS2, where Lionel Richie's "Running with the Night" plays at the end, along with an extra bit of DJ commentary. "The Driver" sound fix Replaces the cutscene audio for "The Driver" with one from an early version of the PS2 game, where Big Country's "In a Big Country" plays in the background instead of "The Message" by Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five. I don't remember what the packs did though, I think mine added coloring to some objects around the map and replaced a few textures and Tomasak's made two stores green instead of white I would also recommend taking a look at this pack as well EDIT: and of course you can always save yourself the trouble by checking out inadequate's all-in-one pack Edited March 30, 2015 by Mr. Jago 2 Link to post Share on other sites

So don't need download one by one any of the fixes. true true, I wasn't to mention anything else originally but I felt like tacking on that extra bit about the map fix pack at the end, edited more animation developments: f*cku animation taken from ps2, where Tommy does the "up yours!" gesture instead of the finger fixed walk_fat so the left arm doesn't twitch between the first and last frames fixed RIFLE_fire so the last frame matches up with the idling animation and the weapon doesn't slide out of Tommy's left hand motorbike passenger animations seem to be impossible to fix without extra coding, as the animation for passengers jumping on is the same one the driver uses I could always make it like in the beta if that's preferable...

Mr. Jago 2,706 Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 (edited) it's TIME for a 1st release https://www.mediafire.com/?5qhoa74702hdjpq CHANGELOG: fixed walk_fat so the left arm doesn't twitch between the first and last frames replaced the death animation for getting shot in the stomach with one converted from GTA 3, as it looks more visually interesting fixed RIFLE_fire so the last frame matches up with the idling animation and the weapon doesn't slide out of Tommy's left hand fixed one frame in the minigun/flame thrower animation where tommy's arms twitch to the left imported some animations from PS2 including the weapon idling stances, some woman walking animations, and the middle finger gesture which now an "up yours!" instead created a new idle animation for the rocket launcher, so it matches the others and isn't just one plain pose fixed one of the death animations so the last frame is exactly the same pose as a normal corpse and isn't off replaced one of the jogging animations as they were originally both identical, female joggers now jog like in san andreas added an idle animation to the knife so it isn't just one pose, made using the fist-fighting stance modified the talking, head-scratching, taxi-hailing, and waiting animations so the legs can move independently, allowing for peds to scratch their heads while running or talk to each other while roller skating in place replaced the female idling stance with one converted from GTA3 added finger movements to a handful of animations that lacked them, for the head-scratching animation you can actually see their fingers move up and down! modified some animations to reduce leg-jiggling run-stopping animations have been redone, they are now based on sprint_civi instead of run_civi and the transition to the idling animation has been made smoother the pistol-firing animation for cops has been changed so it isn't identical to the python one, the legs now stay in one place bike passenger fix not included, I couldn't get the positioning just perfect so I need to play with it more Edited March 31, 2015 by Mr. Jago 7 Link to post Share on other sites
