No, SA map is too low detailed, blocky meshes aren't so nice.

@Alvarez

What do you mean?

For example, in GTA V news broadcast, it tells that LC suffered from a hurricane.

There will also be other ad boards, some buildings will be demolished, others abandoned.

 

Perhaps finished construction sites? I mean the one at south algonquin would probably take A LOT of work to be completed.Actually i think finished construction sites would take less work than the ones in progress, as construction sites have more details. The old hospital ruins could be gone.

There could be new building sites, though. Also boarded up windows, sunken ships in the river, grass on the rails of the old subway...

Yea, but someone would have to make the big building complex instead of just converting the existing models. But I'd love to see that.

[Claude_Lib 3,593]

Personally I think first the original map has to be converted, including additions and enhancements introduced in EfLC. Then, if needed, someone will give it 2013-ish look.

[Alvarez 8,450]

Are there mods that have fused the IV and EfLC maps with features, anyway?

Also conversion process still have to be properly done.

@Alvarez

 

nkjellman merged or tried to merge EFLC mapd with stock IV, I don't know how far he went.

[Claude_Lib 3,593]

Time to blow the dust off this topic. So again, CP, how did you manage to insert the converted models into the game's world? As far as I know, files that contain the placement data are still not cracked.

[_CP_ 9,567]

Did you mean Rotterdam Tower? I just replaced Maze Bank Tower, but specular maps aren't designed to work with V (IV used spec map by channel for optimization).

[Claude_Lib 3,593]

I'm talking about this, this and this. Or it's a separate project you're not involved in?

[_CP_ 9,567]

No, only GTARandom did this convert, I'm not involved in.

[Marty892 599]

new video from taltigolt

 

[lpgunit 497]

Wonder what did GTARandom use for converting the map. Sure enough, there's NTA's tools, but has the placement file formats been fully reverse-engineered already?

[Claude_Lib 3,593]

That's exactly what's still unclear to me. I'd really like him to come here and explain.

[Mr.Arrow 763]

The city looks way off without the props.I assume that your using FiveM tool,am I right?

[lpgunit 497]

There doesn't appear to have any LODs loaded (if it does the car would've had any reflections at all) so it could've been just another FiveM map. Not unless if GTARandom was intrepid enough to crack the map formats himself or something.

[_CP_ 9,567]

.JSON files, nothing has changed, apart of mipmapping textures. Damn, why only OpenIV team is interested to reverse placement files?

[BlackScout 6,971]

Emphasis on this question. I'd do it if I had the knowledge.

It sucks when you want to do something but has no idea how to and can't learn for reasons.

When it will be releaced ? Alpha ? Beta ? Preview ? I WANT IT RIGHT NOW

[dr0yed 46]

How did Gtarandom do that? How can I follow the progress of the mod? Is he out public with it or..?

[theNGclan 9,710]

From what I hear it's a private version of FiveM.

 

Seems like LODs are working ofc.

[BlackScout 6,971]

Weird, the screenshots seems to have LOD Support... I saw blurry buildings. Even if GTARandom said there isn't.

As we know, the problem that seemed to made the game crash while using many regions was because there was no LOD Support.

 

But maybe it's the Mipmapping thing, I don't know.

[RVGOD 5]

aww man, this is CRAZY! i was wondering since OIV got obj export i was wondering if they would do IV in V and they did! Wow!, i need this now !

[_CP_ 9,567]

@RVGOD
but... it's done in a different way.

[.Smaher. 1,630]

That map is all I've ever wanted in a V map.

 

Not entirely, but you get what I mean.

[DrGta 108]

I'm talking about this, this and this. Or it's a separate project you're not involved in?

 

1. it is using this tool GIMSV to import export map assets. You can find it on GTA5mods.com

From what I hear it's a private version of FiveM.

 

Seems like LODs are working ofc.

2. You wont get it. However the FIVEM out right now only Loads Offline due to a altered Launcher Method... so yes you can still import maps but not ONLINE.

[dr0yed 46]

Will this new mod ever release at some point in the future? A liberty city mod on GTA V was the whole reason I bought GTA V for the PC in the first place! lol

[Z1000 29]

Is it possible for game engine to load both maps at once? I mean can LC map be added and connected with road to V map or it is replacement for LS?

[theNGclan 9,710]

Doubt it, since it seems to by FiveM-reliant.

This one? This? Hard to tell...

OpenIV team was supposedly making one too, so we have two possible options in the moment. One less likely than the other.

[dr0yed 46]

Well thanks for the info & replies guys. I really hope this isn't just a giant cocktease. I'm surprised none of the people who worked on have come forward and talked about it. Would a project like this be illegal? Maybe that's why the devs are hushed about it?
