GTASOL - The Topic That Started It All

[paul gilbert]

like when my back is facing cj house my garage is on my left hand side and the road goes right ,do u get what i mean??

just reersing everything ,give it a fresh feel..

[Quadropheniac90]

Erm... It would be possible, but that would not give it a fresh new look in my opinion.

 

@dertyjerzian: Did you get my PM? Just tell me where to contact you, then we'll talk...

[dertyjerzian]

since you are online now, meet me at GTANet IRC in #gtamodding, ok?

[NathanHenry]

Hey Mckay have you done any mapping on Liberty City and Vice City and the third island for SA. Any Screens.

 

Wasn't really much into the VC stuff but seeing Islands imported from VC and 3 to the SA engine is really cool and interesting.

[dertyjerzian]

McKay is on holiday for a while.

 

Teun, PM me here or meet me in GTA irc? there was only one person named Z in the UKirc server...

[Quadropheniac90]

Mc-Kay is on holiday, but no, we don't have it fully into the engine yet. We're finishing the VC version first, but we have some stuff in, no screens yet though...

[Razorwing]

What do you mean? First to be released is Vice CIty version.

lol I think you exactly knew what I meant.. lol..

[hamburglerz]

I had an idea for mixing the GTA world. The importent part would be you could only get to each of the GTA Citys only by boat or flying. No tunnels or briges. This is what I think it should look like.

rough draft.

 

RockStar should but won't do something like this. A game where all three games are in one full game. Where you could pick whom you wanted to play as. Where all the characters ingest at the same time all in one playable world. You could look at it like Tommy is the king mob boss in FL\VC. Fido is the head boss in NY\LC and CJ is the man in CA\SA. The goal of the game would be to team all three guys together.

 

...got to lay off the pipe

 

later masturbater.

[Quadropheniac90]

OK, let's just make this clear:

 

1. We are connecting the cities and we have a position for them allready.

 

2. The storyline will not bring the three of them together, what's up with all that. Everybody saying they need all three of them. There is gonna be a new main character, and some new storyline characters, mostly old ones, and maybe none of these three guys will be in there, maybe all of them, who knows?

 

3. People who say it's stupid to introduce a new main character, it's not GTA style, think about this:

 

Rockstar introduced a new main character everytime in the game: First Claude Speed, then Tomy Vercetti, then Carl Johnson, now Toni Cipriani, so don't say that.

 

4. Sorry, I'm in a bad mood.

[Quadropheniac90]

My mood is way better since tux removed a LOD bug from the current developers version. So if you're on our developers list, PM tux or me and we'll send you the patch which does the following things:

 

1. Improved SCM.

2. The Dodo from the GTA: LC mod. Credit goes to them, contact me if I'm wrong.

3. It fixes a LOD bug. (Game crash)

 

So the current developers' version has yet to crash.

Expect some new screenies soon.

Hey, here you are some screenies:

 

 

 

 

 

I'm not very good at taking screenies (first experience) so avoid bad ones

 

NOTE: I'm not online for 3 days, so you developers should request the patch from

teun...

[Quadropheniac90]

Nice screens mate, I'm gonna put some up too... We need to make a vid or something.

[Razorwing]

freakin sweet !!!

[doodem]

this is amzing great job id like to help in any way i can mostly mapping....

 

does the engine really handle all this??

[Nipa]

I know I was told not to post in this thread again, but I'm going to take some screenshots, and edit them in photoshop and stick them into WMM for the intro.. I promise, this intro vid will be better then the crappy vice city xxl trailer i made! Oh well, really good progress going on... I got the released version and am stunting in the army base..

 

Nipa (doodem: yes the engine can handle it, although gets a bit slow. I was told about that though by tux.coder)

[Chadg]

Mod Don't Work... Got a Legal copy of VC, Installed the boundaries patch, Used the limit adjuster, Followed instructions.

 

EDIT: Fixed it, I accidently put gta3 maps in the maps folder

[Nipa]

Sigh; The working version isn't released... nor will it be until the dev team fix some bugs (which tux.coder has told me, and I can't mention). Oh yeah, I just learnt how to memory hack, so I'm starting a gta sa lvc launcher.. it only has one option now: New HUD; this hack moves the hud and compresses the wanted stars to the top-right, so you have more viewing space. I'm going to send one of the team my experimential, just started, launcher.

 

Great screens tux.coder.. teun sent me some too, but he's watermarked them in the middle, so I've used your screenshots tux.coder for the intro.

 

Nipa (I hope I don't get in trouble)

[Quadropheniac90]

Nipa, you do realize you are no longer part of the team, do you, I mean, you can build stuff and all, but in the end, I just know Mc-Kay wouldn't want your name on the credit list, allthough I wouldn't mind, as long as you do good work...

[Murdoc J. Niccals]

This looks very good. How far are you guys in this project? And do you plan on converting this to SA (w or w/o sa) when you are done?

[doodem]

i hope to see this put in the sa engine but im not sure about how the climbing works so in liberty and vice city im not entirely sure wether you will be able to climb or not , does anyone know anything about this.

[Quadropheniac90]

I think we should release a readme or something. To show the progress and further plans of the mod.

 

@Murdoc J. Niccals: We are now adding more land and changing stuff for the Vice City version, when this version is almost completely bugless, we will convert it for San Andreas and add San Andreas to the map layout. So yes, if we keep making progress like this, we will be working on the San Andreas version in no time.

[Andy80586]

I am really impressed with the way this is turning out. This has gone much farther than the mod I built with placing LC to the west of VC and its a really good thing too seeing that I have not done much in the way of modding for a while... then I came back and saw all those screenshots of what you guys have done. Impressive to say the least...

 

1 more thing... do you guys think you could send me a link so I could download and test everything? I want to make sure we dont run out of id numbers or anything like that which could be easily fixed if need be... I just want to see how many we have left with everything in the game.

[doodem]

id like to see a small part of san andreas in your mod or even all of it instead of a completely new island maybe you could just add some stuff to the maps instead of making completely new map it kinda eliminates the point of the mod

[Quadropheniac90]

I'm back, f*cking internet, HAHA! Nothing is better then a good helpdesk!

 

EDIT: Gonna try it with router now.

[Murdoc J. Niccals]

If you decide to put SA, LC, and VC in the SA one, you should make it more realistic like having LC to the top right, VC to the bottem right, and and SA towards the middle right.

[madness.productions]

If you need a video. I have great video editing skills and I'd love to make a video clip of your mod. All I will need is the basic files for the mod so I can bring the 3 cities togeather. I have got GTA3, GTAVC and GTASA if I need them.

 

If you can't seem to contact me, Please e-mail me at [email protected]

[Quadropheniac90]

OK, pm tux.coder for information about the video... I'm still figuring the damn router out.
