X/R// Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 (edited) Grand Theft Auto Advance is a PC remake of original GTA Advance (2004, GameboyAdvance). Its a sequel to LCS, while being a prequel to GTAIII. Its taking place in the year 2000, only 2 years after LCS (98) and 1 year before GTA3 (2001).For more info on the original game visit :http://www.rockstargames.com/grandtheftauto/gba/http://gta.wikia.com/Grand_Theft_Auto_Advancehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Theft_Auto_(Game_Boy_Advance)This is a GTA III mod that brings the original GBA game to PC platform. And while doing this, never causing / creating any continuity errors between GTAIII and LCS, and always comparing mod screens to the original game.Further notice; GTA Advance has a bigger LC map than GTAIII's, but that is only a cover up to the fact that GBA version didnt have any slopes, mountains or higher levels. So i will not re-crate GBA LC on PC, i will create the year 2000 LC on the PC version of the city.This will include/require some continuity links between LCS and GTAIII, such as;* Toni Cipriani's house still hasn't blown up (my vision/addition for continuity)* Billboards, stores or cars from LCS are still there in LC, but after 2 years, not all of them ofc (my vision/addition for continuity)* Tunnels are under construction (original GTA Advance feature)* Callahan bridge is near completion until Portland missions are over (original GTA Advance feature)* Shoreside Vale ~ Upstate tunnels are still open, just like LCS (original GTA Advance feature)* Fort Staunton construction site for the skyscrapers already started (original GTA Advance feature)Ofcourse, some of the original GTAIII places will change like "AM Petrol Station", as it was own by "Gas'n Go" company in 2000. As for changes like this, you might think "doesn't that create a continuity error?" well no. We all know in real life, places/stores always change owners, and some times, they change it back to whatever it was before. Just like that, Mama's Restourante is now dark-bluish, but it will go back to its yellow-beige color in 2001. So this kind of changes are fine, but i will limit them only to the official Advance ones.While creating the new places that only existed in GTA Advance map, i was really careful and chose the places / buildings that are suitable for this. For Jonnie's Bar in Red Light, i chose the empty building next to Pay'nSpray building. I had to use State of Emergency textures for the roads, as its the best and (semi) official source for the blue-ish roads by R*.About the cars and weapons;Advance only features 23 GTA series cars (while 4 new unique ones, so the number is 27) and GTAIII already has these 23 cars. Ofcourse this 23 cars will require editing, such as, Yakuza Stinger now having 3 paint jobs, just like Diablo Stallion. Their name now shorten to only "Yakuza" and "Diablo" (original GTA Advance feature)As for the weapons, apart from Katana and Minigun, they are the same.Missions;There are 41 story missions and they are really similar to GTAIII's, so i'm hoping i will quickly re-make a lot of them only editing the existing ones.You can watch them in here: Mama's Family RestourantGas 'n GoJonnie's Bar & Pay 'n SprayEightBall's PlaceAmmu-Nation & Liqour Yes! storeGreasy JoesLeftover billboards from LCSSplash Screens (between islands)/Extracted from original game/PortlandStauntonShoresideMenuLoading Screen Edited June 25, 2015 by TJGM cosmys, Z i X, Th3W0r53 and 33 others 36 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergiu Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 As much as I enjoyed the retextures I feel like it will never be an authentic remake unless you work on the city's structure. Still - good luck with this mod. X/R//, Z i X, Igor Bogdanoff and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still - good luck with this mod. i'm aware of that, but having the gba version is just useless, because this game is canon to 3d universe, and to make the ultimate / definitive pc version, i have to work with the original liberty city. also, gba version doesnt change any key places, it only extends some of streets, and that is all. nothing else. and its only for portland. staunton/shoreside vale remains the same.

I thought GTA Advance wasn't cannon on account that the reasons of him being arrested are different between Advance and III, that and the official GTA website doesn't mention it.

X/R// Posted June 25, 2015 Author Share Posted June 25, 2015 official site doesnt mean anything, its just a site. on 8ball, if there is any continuity error, we can easily change it to the right one. as advance doesnt have any voice acting, its all about subtitles.

In advance he says "my legs burned up real bad, go on without me" and in gta3 he says "my hands burned up, you drive brother" there was a police raid, he was burned during. that is the story. which part got burned is not really matters. and this is not creating any errors because his legs got better during the one year between two games, and only his hands remain the same, thats all. dont forget that they kill miguel for the second time in gta3, thanks to a lcs error. but that doesnt make lcs non-canon. Looks very interesting and I think this is first GTA A project with actual screens Hope you'll finish this hey thanks so much!
