GTASOL - The Topic That Started It All

[Quadropheniac90]

There are screens somewhere in this topic or in the other topic in the Maps section.

[X-Seti]

Teun: I got your message.. We all need to get together and talk..

 

GTANET: I think

 

Have you seen any work they have done.. because I haven't seen a working mod yet from the GTA Ultra team.. nor have I seen any screens, apart from being told they stopped half way in the mod and switched to using our mod as the new base to there project.

 

This I don't have a problem with but I would like to know.. there plan, I need more information, before I think about using there layout

 

So we can start help them.

 

Before I release the bug fixed version I need the main.scm file, tux or someone said they have parked cars, and any other mods anyone has worked on.. so i can add them too.. them i'll releasing the mod to the public for beta testing.

Having thoughts and fixing bugs

 

 

Point view fixes..

 

I made an option to install another map layout aswell as the original format.. where LC will be ontop and VC below..

I'm most likely not going to get a answer, but just for the sake of it.. Why did you have to move VC? It just doesn't make sense to me.. Oh and good work, you've got a lot of work done on the lod bug. I have a suggestion; why can't you link some islands together using the gtaIII bridge objects? They were much better. Not forcing you to use the GTA III bridge objects, just informing you how they can be better.

Nipe there will be 2 versions from the installer...

 

Installer:

 

Option 1.

GTASA: LVC original format with VC (Right) and LC (Left)

 

 

Option2.

GTASA: LVC (Ultra) format with VC (below) and LC (above)

 

Since the GTA Ultra team like using our mod , this is our way of

helping them out and being able to do our own mod aswell.

 

 

 

[DemolitionMan™]

isn't that a wate of time? I mean making 2 versions

[X-Seti]

well yes and no.. its easy done..

 

I can give the user a choice to install what ever format they want..

 

1 or 2

 

This can allow us to do some more cooler stuff..

 

Update this soon.

[etix]

1. You guys are doing great :| This mod will be so cool.

2. Can someone post the screenshot of the map

 

Greets,

[the.GTA3.man]

Looks as if you guys are making great progress, but when do you plan to move this to the san andreas engine? I mean vice city is nice and all but I dont have the game for the PC, I do for the ps2, but for the PC i only have gta III and san andreas.

[X-Seti]

Im running both versions together.. whats added first on the LC engine is moved over to SA.. soon after.

[Quadropheniac90]

@the.GTA3.man: Who says we're making the mod just for you then?

 

Some more work on the forum before I give out the URL...

[Nipa]

Oh ok, I still have laying around my prototype of my installer, so if someone helps me generate a script that makes a bat file with KCow's cmd version of IMGEdit run 3341 times for lc's files, then I could launch that bat, and yeah, pretty straight forward. Oh and that bottom -> top ultra team map looks paint done, and looks a bit bad, i think. If you want, I could make a better looking map..

 

Seems good, and installing two layouts is great.. infact.. i have a idea; why can't someone make a launcher that can swap layouts, so the installer installs both of the maps, but only one is used (lvc layout), but the launcher allows you to use the other layout (ultra layout)

About GTA:Ultra, this is what i found out: here It is stolen from GTA:LVS. I don't know if he is part of the team but if he is...

[Nipa]

007 RoadRunner: to clear it up for you, I've made this:

 

LVS is NOT OUR MOD.

Ultra IS NOT LVS.

Ultra thought it would be funny to steal pictures from lvs, so yeah, but ULTRA IS NOT LVS.

 

Plus, ultra came before lvs came, so ultra didn't steal the idea of lc + vc + sa from lvs.

 

So basicly:

Ultra came along

Mc-Kay decided to make a lc + vc mod

then lvs comes and steals lvc's goal + san andreas.

(ignore this, i had a look now, and well, let's just say ultra is ripping every single thing of lvs)

<end really bad explantion>

 

Never mind, look above.

 

Nipa

[X-Seti]

Here is one better...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and I think it's getting amusing.

 

007 RoadRunner, Nipa:

 

To clear it up for you (Again): Sorry!!! har har (Giggling)

 

GTA-LVS is NOT OUR MOD. oh no!!

 

GTA-Ultra IS NOT GTA-LVS, (Ready to laugh!)

 

Gta-Ultra thought it would be funny to steal pictures from Gta-LVS.

 

Since GTA-LVS make a habbit of ripping everyone elses mods and calling

them there own, So yeah, GTA-ULTRA IS NOT GTA-LVS!!!.

 

But GTA-Ultra only got so far in there mod... And used OURS!!!.. instend LOL

 

Well I don't have a problem with GTA-Ultra, hence the 2 options for the installer

idea, choosing between GTASA-LVC and GTA-Ultra maps..

 

Only becuase I was able to finish putting LC and VC into one game first.

 

Plus, Ultra came before LVS, But we also came before LVS, So Ultra didn't steal the idea of lc + vc + sa from LVS..

 

GTA-Ultra decided to use our mod instend

 

Ignore this!

Mc-Kay: har har),

 

Nipe: Let's just say Gta Ultra is ripping every single thing of LVS)

 

Mc-Kay: I dislike LVS, as they had taken our original project name, So thats why we are called GTASA: LVC, as the project name

 

MC-Kay

 

Hoping this clears up any confusion.

I really haven't decided if I want to continue the installer, because i need a image edit program that'll let me add a whole folder of stuff, or i'll have to make a script to generate a bat that runs imgedit cmd version 3341 times for the installer, and for me that's no fun and besides, I don't even know how to make a script to do that! I really think you should change the project name, because people (aka 007 roadrunner and dertyjerzian) are prone to posting in the wrong topic, and they already have! So I think a modification to the name would be good.

 

Nipa

[X-Seti]

Well confusion no more... (Sucks to be LVS)

 

We are now GTA: State of Liberty.

 

Piisssst (Forum admin) how do you change the thread topic?

 

[Quadropheniac90]

OK, the launch of the forum! It does not have topics in every forum, but it's up to the users off course to fill things up.

 

GTA: State of Liberty Forum

 

Have fun! There's also a gang section, we hope people will volunteer to be gang leader. After that, gang members can join. More explanation on the forum.

[007 RoadRunner]

Good work teun!

[angrymule]

I must've been living under a rock or something not to notice this but it sounds really good. If I could make a contribution to this mod, I would like to help with modelling new models and I would also like to experiment with the weather if you think that would be appropriate?

 

Is anyone else here a fan of GTA3's steel-gray sky and foggy weather?

[Quadropheniac90]

Lol, cool, off course you can help!

 

EDIT: Use a popup-blocker, those Lycos assholes have 1 text ad, and to my horror a popup. Lowlife creatures!

I recommend everybody uses Etix's avatars and sigs.

@Roadrunner: What do you mean?

 

Everybody, join the forum please! As far as I know, we will inform people the best there and we allready have some gang leaders. Allthough, can somebody explain to me how I can add people to groups on a PHPBB forum? I use special ranks for groupds but that is not very noticable.

I could probably give you help with the installer.

 

I have a better way in mind to make it though!

[paul gilbert]

hi:)

i dont know anything about modding Yet,,however i am very interested in doing any kind of contribution to the mod ..so i was wondering is there any kind of modding(codding,mapping,...) i can learn quickly and use it to help u guyz with the mod??

[Quadropheniac90]

I'm sorry, we now need more experienced people for the team, and no type of modding is learned quickly, at least not one we need now. Sorry.

[X-Seti]

The mod has been uploaded onto http://www.gtagarage.com/

under GTASA: LVC, under the mods secton.

 

this may take a day to be added to the site..

 

I'm losing my net connection for a bit, but i'll be back in time..

[flitcroft101]

WTF we havent stole any mods so be quiet and let the picture thing go. Also we didnt steal anybodys idea about the mod. We can do what we want and you can't accuse us of stealing. Im pretty sure there are loads of people that have thought about all gta islands being together....

[X-Seti]

MODS released, online everyone...
