Well, no offence, but I think we could've expected EXE errors, because hacking the EXE is risky. But I'm sure we can fix it.

 

I fixed a problem Tux and I were having while creating missions. Mission 3 is almost done, and 6 is done.

Well I seem to be the only one having problems ingame, on my other PC the game is fine.

 

So we keep on trucking.

 

 

 

Skimmer needs to be moved, i've decided to add a temp bridge, since this is the only way i can cross without the game crashing.

Touching a cop car = Game Crash, I have that problem. But that's the only problem I have found so far, and I've driven around the entire map several times.

[X-Seti]

Well im online and im modding, MML.

 

I also need to sort RC island so for me no getting side tracked.

 

 

[X-Seti]

 

i'll reset the default pos cords and change it 0.360.

[X-Seti]

 

SCM cords for LC need to be changed -23.0 X axis (west)

Edited February 28, 2006 by Mc-Kay

[Quadropheniac90]

Luckily no missions for LC have been made yet. But parked cars all have to be changed. I'll be making Missions 2 and 4, I'm not sure if Tux did either one of those.

.:Teun:.

[X-Seti]

Adding the new paths gives me this error:

Offtopic: Keith: How'd you get the paths to render in Moomapper? Is there a new version or am I just using an old one?

.:Teun:.

[X-Seti]

Download Ked and look for version 0.94, its an updated version of moomapper

 

google link points to http://www.gtatools.com/

 

But Ked is nolonger on that site, i'd Pm Delfi

 

 

I can say we have hit the limits of our hacked VC exe..

 

So most of what we have done we going to have to put aside until we can sort the exe, and move forword.

Check the ftp server

 

[The-end]

Shame about the exe can we expect this to be released within 2 months? (sorry if i'm an ass asking this) - The-end

[X-Seti]

I'm looking for public server, I am going to release a version with most options disabled.

 

No LC paths, Limited LODs.

 

 

[hydra-hunter]

ps : sorry for my bad englich

[Quadropheniac90]

@Keith: Thanks! I've almost finished Mission 2, only text, no fancy animations, cause we don't have anyone doing them.

.:Teun:.

[X-Seti]

releasing a basic version to the public, this is a cut down version.

 

No LC paths, Limited Number of LODs..

 

Only VC cars.

 

Still looking for a public server to upload onto.

[X-Seti]

Chris: Buddy-Pal, Mate

 

I am having problems uploading the file to a public server, Fileplanet seems to laggy.

 

How do you feel about hosting the file from your site?

 

Be kind in your reply?

Oh ok that's pretty cool anyway, i dont care for lods and as for paths sometimes they can be anoying anyhow.

 

Does mll have paths?

 

Also in this release is there any other islands except Vice city, Main land liberty, statue Of Liberty and Liberty city? - The-end

 

EDIT: f*ck this is a bitch, i just had a look at the specs and it says 3.0ghz cpu myne only 2,4ghz all this waiting and my pc turn's out to be not strong enough. I dont get it though, as i can run vice city fulll spec no lag or anything, so why not this?

Edited February 28, 2006 by The-end

[X-Seti]

Well you can try it, I just set the bar at 3.0Ghz because I know all loading problems are not noticeble.

[tux.coder]

Teun, i was going to write mission 2 as i said to you but you made it ???

Then 4 and 5 are mine, don't waste your time to write them.

Mc-kay, also 2 star level causes crash unfortunately.

 

Thanks to gtaforums again, they found why our missions wer not failing after player's wasted/busted.

 

Mc-kay, have you used another scm ? Ours did not include vc cars... But I can activate them if you want.Will there be another public beta ? Then we can try to catch up you in mission development.

Guy's, did you ever get the train paths done? - The-end

[The-end]

Well ok so is the first release going to be 5 gig? if so i dont see me been able to get this.... unless it was a torrent.

 

I only have a 512kbs connection and get about 60kbs download i havew to shut my pc down overnight tooo Even on a torrent it would take maybe a week to get?

 

could youj possible do it in parts like 50mb each? - The-end

[wiredwizardz]

McKay,

I would love to..................

But there is no way I can my bandwidth would be eaten up within the day. Plus since I share bandwidth with another site ( basicly my site is a subdomain of a larger site) I don't know how much the extra bandwidth would cost. Sadly I have to say no.

I will check to see if there are any other option available on which we can host it.

 

The Western landmass is completed as well 2 days earlier than I had expected now it is just a matter of handing that off to Teun for completion. If your still going to use it that is.

 

But with the exe and the limit that doesn't seem like it will happen either

What are our options ?????

 

I should be around sometime today just don't know when since I have a ton of errands that I have to do. I will check back later.

yep, there is no problem with how much we put in IDE and IPL wise, just the path limits

 

Im looking forward to the westen town

 

I'll sign up somewhere like File Planet, but i don't want others to have to pay for access to download mod.

 

 

[tux.coder]

Fileplanet would be fine but pleae don't forget that we cannot redistribute the executable, the only way is letting users patch it with an automated gta-vc.exe cracker.

[Spaz O Mataz]

just a small suggestion why not put a bit torrent up for it? that way you'd not have to worry about maxing out the bandwith on a site

[Dillyracer]

Well, there are countries (like mine) that have an upload limit, so they can't download it or they will have low speed

[DeathSquad]

How large is the file just out of curosity, I know I've heard it quoted something like 2gigs, which at the moment = 15% of my bandwidth limit. I doubt I have the resources to host it

 

So there is nothing we can do about the path limits (I ran into this with the I420). I know the LC paths at least load with the game alone, I'm sure the errors you are getting are from merging them with the VC and other additions...which sucks, its one of the big things that always bothered me with some map mods, nice towns and cities yet...no one around, like a strange horror movie.

 

Now I don't want to be "that guy" who keeps harping on making this a San Andreas Mod, but I would say that would be our last resort if nothing else can be done about the limits in the VC EXE. And I'm not even saying lets put LC and VC with SA in the SA Engine, make it a map/mission conversion with a clean-board SA. I will personally convert every DFF and TXD to this project for SA (or at least make a good attempt) by loading them in Zmod2 and saving them, cause I'm crazy like that. I spent a good 12 hours work time on those LC paths, and all that work got flushed since I had a friend with Excell convert them within 2 hours. I just would hate to see a thing like a limit cripple or kill the plan of this project...

[DJJOHNY]
