GTASOL - The Topic That Started It All

[X-Seti]

The team ummm interesting, more work for me to do.

 

I may sound like i'm getting fed up, but i'd be happy when Deathsquad is back.

 

I seem to be having problems getting SA in, but I hope i can finish that part of the map soon, so I can go back to modelling stuff to finish of MLL.

[gnrrocks]

for the map, i think you should put it kind of like the real world layout, have san fierro north western part, los santols south western, vice city south eastern, and liberty city north eastern. MLL should be somewhere in the center but somehow more connected to liberty city.

[Quadropheniac90]

I don't think we should change the layout again, I think we should add landmass to connect it. Otherwise it's gonna be SCM sh*t and stuff again.

Well i've converted all the SA text files to VC ones. Click here to view files.

 

SA will be 6000 units west of VC, changing stuff around was only an idea, but everything is going to stay the same.

SA Tommy!

 

 

Converting SA into SOL has been harder then I planned, as I was only able to convert all the text files (IDE, IPLS) using scripts, However creating a dff/txd converter was to much of a headache, but to be honest creating a tool like that is above me at this time, so these files had to be converted by hand with the needed col files using 3dsmax and TXDworkshop.

 

I have spent 2 weeks just converting files belonging to FSe.IDE.

 

All the files have been sorted and matched up in with their IDE files, and sorted into their own folders.

 

I need a team of people to help me in completing this task, as it will take me 6 mouths to do this alone.

youre probably tired of me responding to your help requests, but than never really doing it because i cant get it to work, but i think if you give me a step by step thing on how to do it i could get it done pretty easily, and i wouldnt ask much more. so if you need help im always there, i just need instructions. i am very familiar with max and a i know enough about txd workshop.

[X-Seti]

Fair enough, I need to find a better method myself to convert these models, as soon as I do, I'll bring you into the project.

[X-Seti]

Edit- end of story or was there, best you read on.

I noticed that too, I'd say leave it here, but also go to another site.

 

Maybe this is because of people thinking GTA: SL isn't much work or something, I feel hostility towards the mod, dunno why.

I know the Mothership issue didnt help us much, I've posted this issue in the right thread this time.

[Baztiaan.gta]

Hey Mc-Kay, can i join your mod as Modeler??

Contact me with PM or msn,

 

MSN = [email protected]

[X-Seti]

This depends on what you can do.

 

What can you do?

What mods have you worked on?

What mods have you finished yourself?

[gnrrocks]

well, you could have your own forum on the http://www.gtastateofliberty.com/wiki/Main_Page website, and post all the forums about the website so that people visit it, and find out you need more people to help convert SA in VC, but this plans has ups and downs. good thing is that you will be your own admin, the bad thing is there wont be as many passerby's that would help out.

[X-Seti]

I'd say leave it here.

Ok well from today on wards we are going to work differently.

 

I'll be spending time designing a new site, I'm going to down tool for a bit until we get the band back together.

[Baztiaan.gta]

Dear Mc-kay, maby we can talk easier on MSN or what? i can show you Pictures of my Models.

 

I Hope so...

i smell dead mod

[Nipa]

Not dead. Mc-Kay is the only one working with the mapping, so he has to convert ALL of SA by himself.. some 14000 models.. by hand. If you want it not to look dead, help. Work goes into mods, it's not as easy as you think.

 

-Nipa

[gnrrocks]

yeah, with someone as dedicated as keith, it will take much more than some slow times to make the mod die.

[Baztiaan.gta]

yep, i wanna to help him but he dont answer my message, is till wait

 

[X-Seti]

 

i smell dead mod 

Grim-Reaper of mods comes to mind, but noo we are not dead yet. I just hit a part of the mod thats going to take time to work out.

 

 

Yep, I want to help Mc-Kay but he does not answer my message?

 

I've been looking at your stats and you have not been around that long, plus in your email you said your only 13 years old.

 

How you can help us now, support us by giving us ideas and testing the mod.

[gnrrocks]

i wouldnt underestimate young people. im only 15, well i guess thats not much considering every time ive tried and put something in game something went wrong . we just need, lets say, a bit more instructions haha.

 

but hell, i wont argue with you over who to pick, its your mod.

[GTAFan6500]

i smell dead mod

All good things take time. Mc-Kay has already done too much and is too committed to this to quit now. I think he is determined to finish this so let’s just wait. This mod is far from dead and hopefully someone will come to help out with the progress soon. I’m sure it will happen.

[Baztiaan.gta]

[Baztiaan.gta]

Ok so your good at making models but do you know how to get them in the game.

[Baztiaan.gta]

offcourse, IPL, IDE, Map it, Dff, Col, ETC.

 

Do you know enough?

I hope you add me now...

[gnrrocks]

well i wouldnt call that great modeling, but it sertainly is good enough. if you want some critique, the houses are WAYY out of proportion. the doors are the same sizes as the windows and the steps are giants compared to the door, but those are minor errors done from doing something too fast and overlooking the most common of things. and you did say you did them in an hour...
