[WIP|BETA|SA] GTA: Underground - Mod Discussion

[Coke69]

k thanx for all you telling me, but i have one more problem, GTA underground crashes on loading screen (my GTA SA is from Steam)

*facedesk*

 

Okay, so here's the deal, you don't mod GTA SA with the steam version, you downgrade it, via a downgrader. If you've been around GTA SA mods before you should know this.

[Xinerki]

PLS fix the crash in LS interiors!!! When i enter screen goes black and silent patch makes the sound that i know it crashed

What you pretty much said is "i crash now fix PLS but i will not give any info on the crash also a mod that fixes game play music because THAT TOTALLY MAKES SENSE AMIRITIE"

[SparkzKLX]

So ok, hello i'm Jhoshua and i have been around the modding comunity (any kind) for a very long time, not as a modder, but as someone that can't stop modding games because why not, so it's easy for me to spot a mod which the developers put passion in it, and this is one of them. This will be like some sort of review, but really they are just my thoughts, and be ready for an long *as* review, so here we go:

 

What the hell were you guys thinking?! Omg, this is the best mod i ever had the pleasure to download and play! And it's not an easy one to develop, i can tell, but you guys are really good at it, and i am really thankful for the job that you are doing, you guys brought a new and unique gta experience like NO ONE was ever able to come with, I can see this is nothing compared to the final release this mod will have, if you intend to bring everything you listed in your goals, but now and here this is really something great, you guys really deserve all the support in the world, so here what i'll do, i'm Italian and i noticed that no one posted a video about this mod, so i will help spread the word, i want you guys to succed, even if i'll just bring 20 new persons to this topic, it will still be something.

 

I have been fooling around gta underground world, been re-visiting the past game towns with my heart dying because of the feels, with the gta sa gameplay it's even funnier than ever and the gang wars stops me from stop playing, so good job on that, nice touch. Liberty City and Vice City are really well build, i mean not perfect but i'll roll with it, i like it so far. I happen to find the levels from carcer city, that's gonna be a b*tch to develop, it's a dark and greedy city, so you'll walk it off by copying and pasting Liberty City buildings and get an idea with the ghost town. It really looks like a big city, so i'm expecting somethin really original out of it, and i know i won't be disappointed. About Mh2 city, i can't wait for that neither, i think that's even harder to make, so good luck to you guys even though you won't need it. I even explored Bullworth, it's nice and cozy i can already see that you guys will make it nice. It lacks an airport, but it doesn't need it, if you guys make it a little bit closer it will be a pleasure to reach with a squalo taken from liberty city. I love Atlanta too, i mean, it's just ghost roads and few buildings, but i like the feel you guys wants to give it, GTA is always been about the feels the city gives you, and Atlanta could be a really nice addition, i like the Orange gangs, the cops, the emergency vehicles and the custom buildings, it really feels like another piece of the world and you nailed it.

 

I don't really have anything more to say, nothing that you guys don't already know so i'll start with the complaints and suggestions (they are few don't worry ):

 

- Story mode: ok, you guys made your choice to make it a sandbox game, and i respect that decision, it's still a fun game to play. But you know what i enjoyed a lot about san andreas? The building of your character, i loved starting from zero just to make CJ become always stronger. My suggestion is not that you guys enable story mod again, it's totally ok really, but could you guys like put an event circle where on touch it completly reset CJ progression? (Money, skills and stats). I gotta tell you, i hate starting with all those moneys, getting the paper was another fun port of san andreas, in those milions of ways, killing, secondary jobs and so on.

- GTA 5 switch style: ok, so, lately i installed skin selector and then gta switch style mods, why you asking? Because roleplaying is fun! With the switch mod you have 3 characters, and i love to put the on the other 2s the skin of Claude and Tommy, i really like it and i feel like the world doesn't turn around only when playing CJ. This is really a far cry suggestion, it's not essential and a little bit stupid, but it really would make the game more enjoyable. The mod is already out there and i don't think that the creator wouldn't let you use it, in the end you just need to change the skins of characters from the 5 to the old gen ones, and change the spawns on the respecting cities.

 

I repeat, it's a stupid suggestion. This mean you would need to code in the switch for Jimmy from bully, Cash from Mh and Danny from Mh2, and at that point the game would get needlessy complicated, but still the first 3 characters would be nice.

 

Question; will you add kids to bullworth?

 

And that's it, i wanted to give my thoughts in and give you guys support. Keep doing that great job, you are an unique skilled team with mean ideas!

 

Thank you again for the great work.

f*ck off please

MODS is Great,but there is some missing:

-San Andreas Airports are not flying Liberty City and Vice City.

--We do not have a Safe House in Liberty City.You should add the safe House.

-I go to Bulworth,Mainland or Atlantis but game crash,You should fix this error.

Are you retarded? f*ck off

[dkluin]

Do you guys mind stop calling people who don't spam at all and just suggest something a retard?

 

There's a huge difference between an ACTUAL retard and this small group of people who dont spam, and just suggest something even in broken english (does it affect anything?!) is actually the group you should NOT insult.

He also may be the cause of many crash reports.

SPRINGFIELD FOR CITY AND YELLOW PEDS!!!

[Jimmy_Leppard]

I've been patiently testing Vice City part of the map, so I have some bugs to report for you guys which I think should be looked into and hopefully taken care of before anything else as VC and LC are the prime focus of the whole map.

 

1.) For some reason, whenever I try to quit the game while I'm in the VC part of the whole map, my game crashes at the same time I quit. It doesn't happen anywhere else, just when I'm in VC. (It's not really a bug that needs to be fixed as it's a crash that occurs upon exiting the game, but still...

 

2.) As it possibly may be a thing you wanted (I'm not sure), but once I enter the North Point mall, there is no radar/map inside.

 

3.) Related with 2.) - When exiting the North Point mall, there is no radar/map anymore on the outside either.

 

4.) Pretty much every store inside the North Point mall is bugged and causes my game to crash once I try to enter it, such as the Tarbrush Cafe and GASH whatever store.

 

Nothing too problematic to fix, I'm sure, but I emphasize once again VC bugs should be a bigger priority than anything that has to do with Bullworth, Atlantis, Mainland Liberty or other cities. Will be back once I find something else.

Didnt realize there was a Readme for how to install (probably cause its hidden in sight) anyway, i download the HOODLUM EXE, and the game finally loads, but then it goes black screen and stays like that. Yes i am using the Steam version, and no i did not use a downgrader, it says on the game's Readme that its on version 1.00 unless its wrong

I believe that only the exe is on v1.00 unless your referring to the default GTA SA Readme, it's not, it's an old recycled readme from the CD version of the game, they just can't be f*cked to update it, the steam version of GTA SA is 3.1 I think, so you still have to use a downgrader either way.

Yep, you're gonna have to use this downgrader.

Atlantis i will miss you

 

Atlantis was a map in GTA Underground that was very blank. Huge chunks (and i mean very) were missing from the map, so much infact, that the only reason you'd go to Atlantis was for the 4 radio stations (and the user track player) it had to offer. Atlantis is pretty far out, so you'd have to use a car spawner if you ever wanted to leave.

 

Why is this, you ask? San Andreas was very huge, but GTA Underground's map is equivalent to approx. 21 of San Andreas.

BTW, I think that you should start building the whole map process. I mean you are only making Islands. I think you should start building a the map connecting the whole UG map by building it's adjacent areas. If you wish.

 

Do those things right after when you think it is the time to do it. Not right now I think. After fixing bugs and Snapshot 3.

 

I think it would be a good idea if you remove the Atlantis or start building the map from zero.

 

I think you remodel the map(radar picture). Because it is containing a lot of mistakes. Like buildings, alleyways, curves. You should consider about that.

 

Bullsworth map is really childish. Trucks and many other vehicles seems too short to fit in. In other word, you have to remodel them mostly. It seems a lot of hard work.

 

You are not making the city complete copycat. So, you can change them a lot bit. If you are making a gigantic map and connecting the land to every city, I think you should model the island edges.

 

Among the many guest, I think not everyone is so stupid. So, I think that you can add more people to contribute your mod.

 

I think it's a dumb thing. But I think that you should change them a lot bit. It's very stupid thing but in my opinion you have to think about that.

 

 

To answer all of your suggestions:

 

If you actually paid attention to the front post, you'd realize he's already in the process connecting all the maps, and they'd all be connected by the final version.

 

I really don't think hes gonna remodel cars if it 'seems' like they dont fit in alleyways..

 

Why would he need to remodel every city just so he wouldn't be copying Rockstar? If he was doing that, we'd expect GTA Underground to finish in 2019+.

 

He's not remaking Atlantis. He's removing it.

 

So apparently now it matters how many small errors you see on the radar. You know that Rockstar made most of the HUD's in this mod, right?

How about me for answering?

 

EDIT: Also sorry if I ever post alot like that. I always look at the pages that I haven't commented on to reply to what people say, their suggestions, and sometimes peoples problems, by telling them to only post their problems on the bug tracker topic, to eradicate spam.

We need to put that spam in a can.

 

Okay, I-I admit, that's not very funny, but there are too many people who keep saying their game keeps crashing. It's like having people constantly come to you asking why their coupons won't work.

 

Also, here's what my profile messages look like for more evidence.

 

 

 

 

Alright, that's 3 posts containing my obnoxiously huge 'BUG TRACKER' signature. I honestly don't see how you could not see it now.

 

The only possible reason people keep bug reporting is because they are too lazy to sign up on the bug tracker website and don't think its mandatory, thus the thread gets flooded.

 

And to future people who decide to post on this thread,

 

Read the previous comments before posting. There have been too many over asked questions.

Does this mod work for the steam version, cause whenever i try to start a new game it crashes before it can even begin loading.

 

I've installed the mod + the latest patch.
