YOEL_44's Workshop

[YOEL_44]

My two big mods


This is going to be merged into the other It was good while it lasted...




They're just some little packs of some of the textures that I've been making at summer and in my not-so-spare time, so here we go!


First of all the Original exe icons completely remade.
In this pack you'll find a *.png, an icon and a launcher with the bundled icon.

NOTE: If you have problems with the launcher and the AV just use the normal icon on a shortcut or whitelist the launcher as a virus (It's based of a simple batch file so no virus at all)

 

If you absolutelly don't want to have the *.exe-s downloaded, use THIS FULL PACK with only and exclusivelly the *.ico files for all the games.

For GTA

For GTA 2

For GTA III

For Vice City

For San Andreas

For San Andreas Multiplayer

For GTA IV

For GTA EFLC


I've been one of the first ones in playing GTA V in PC and as a (mostly) retro gamer I was shocked with the incredible effects in it.
So here the second pack with some original particles directly extracted from game files and fixed to play best in the good old San Andreas, in adition I have included some gradient based textures that I use in my SA.

I highly recomend to use Mod Mix Sets by Junior_Djjr and change under "Headlight of cars":

CoronaType = 4
CoronaSize = 2.0

This way you'll get a GTA V styled lens flare for vehicles



and... LINK


This one's a vehicle generic textures pack, I've been looking for years for a head/brake/etc...lights pack that resembles the original ones but most of what I found was more moddern, so here's my solution.

A 1024x1024 vehicle lights texture fully based in the originals but with one more variation I know, I'm a bit freak.
Apart from that there are also resized wheels textures, color corrected license plate font and other generic vehicle textures.



So here's the LINK


And for last but not least
The models folder it's been a fun factory for me since GTA III, but this time I've take the thing a bit more seriously (not really ), and I have redone a selection of some of the most widelly seen textures of them.

- Nvidia and EAX loadscreens in 16:9 and higher resolution (I know most of you use a no loadscreen solution like SilentPatch)
- The mouse now in higher resolution and transparent (nothing new...)
- That kind of arrow that can be seen in the menus
- Radio icons completelly remade and in higger resolution, including Track player
- Some (not all, I will explain why) of the radar icons

And here the explanation:
I highly recommend to use my radar icons as an alternative for some of the ones alredy made by -Quantum-, this ones Radar Icons HQ Remastered

The only ones that I've included are:
- Final styled Loco syndicate icon (instead of beta styled one in -Quantum- pack)
- Pizza icon inspired by the mobile version (instead of -Quantum- PC styled one)
- A texture that no one never has mod until now (how exagerated I am!), the skip icon with that Deluxo, it's not in higher resolution but it's uncompressed (I don't even know if it's used at all)




And here's the last link for now

Hope you like them, and enjoy

Also if some one wants some of my base/source/original texture just ask for them

I think I have found a way of surpassing the AV protection, try downloading again

Could you make the exe from my EFLC icons?

Steam

I didn't use your icons, I've remade them, a bit sharper but...

 

DONE

 

I have also included the GTA IV icon to the main post

 

I've packaged the same as in the other ones (icon + png + launcher)

 

I didn't test them so tell me if there's any problem

You forgot to include EFLC steam exe, but i can assure you IV's exe works

[Blackbird88]

Loving those icons.

EFLC icon is too bright however. This is my mockup using original one's colors

I didn't forgot, I just don't know how to make it, Steam is quite tricky

Regarding the color, I don't have EFLC so I've used Tomasak's icons as a base, later today I will fix that

I though you would do the same, what you have done with original except it will have the different ico.

So you want the Steam icon to point to the regular game instead of the Steam game?

Edited January 29, 2016 by YOEL_44

[Igor Bogdanoff]

Yes

[YOEL_44]

Yesterday I couldn't update the EFLC icons, they're uploaded now, I've included the Steam icon launcher also

[YOEL_44]

OK so now all the old GTAs has got a new icon, I've also updated the GTA 3 pack to include a white variant of the icon, like the original one.

 

Finally this pack finished!!!!

It's in some missions if you fail for example OG LOC you get to skip the part of waiting for him at the precint

Hello! I wand to download your icon packs, but my antivirus detects them as viruses and automatically deletes them (GTA 1, 3, IV & EFLC specifically). Can you re-upload them without viruses and PM me the source textures? Thanks!

[The Duke Of Nukes]

After more scanning, they are ALL being detected with viruses. Can you please PM me with an alternate link that contains all of your remastered icon packs? Thank you!

[YOEL_44]

Just whitelist them, I used a simple line of cmd code to launch the original exe from the launcher, it's as easy as.

 

@echo offstart "name_of_the_game".exe

If you don't trust this is your problem, you can compile it yourself and the idiot of your antivir will detect it anyway, that's why I don't use any kind of active monitoring antimalwares.

I will post the textures anyway.

Hello, I tried replying to you on YouTube but for some reason YouTube auto-deletes a lot of comments from my comments sections (I think its because of the links that people use).

Anyways, as for the icon pack, I was unaware of this topic and I thought there wasn't such thing as a high quality icons pack. I also posted the icon pack for fun because I made it a couple of months ago for personal use. I decided to release it because of the de-listing of the GTA Trilogy from the store.

I have downloaded your icon pack and I can see some differences on some of the icons (mainly because I recreated the icons using wallpapers and game art).

Would it be possible to come down to a solution?
I could either keep the posts as they are and acknowledge that this topic exists by leaving appropriate credits or remove any icons that look exactly the same with your icon pack and redirect people to this post for any icons missing from my (then updated) pack.

As I've mentioned in your thread, most are original (or taken from other source?) but the Vice city one is exactly the same, down to the pixels, a tiny bug in the lower edge of the "c" in city, the incorrect color of the pink edge, etc., and the EFLC one is Blackbird88's edit on the one I did, and I manually drawed it back in the day, to keep it pixel perfect, so it's not possible that you took it from an artwork, maybe you did a Google search and found some random icon out there, then throw it at icoconvert.com and call it a day, that's not an original icon.

 

This is what happens when you do a reverse search in Google for the GTA Vice City icon you published, I added an exclussion for your username so that your own post doesn't appear:

https://www.google.com/search?tbs=simg:CAQSYQl_1nLPARRKibhpWCxCwjKcIGjoKOAgEEhS8Jfor7B-oB_1AfsRiMCNkG6DK2GBoaEyqBsMUx51_1Oot8Kk-Eba3RCXVVrDOmMeIYgBTAEDAsQjq7-CBoKCggIARIEYhnH0ww&q=vice+city+-const96b&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwj-peGpmdfzAhVNxoUKHT2CB3UQ2A4oAXoECAEQMw&biw=1280&bih=597&dpr=1

And yeah, my icon(s) it's been published A LOT of times (I know not all of them are mine, but about half of them are mine or derivatives), but I don't think any of them took credits for it, they just used it.

 

In fact, further analyzing the EFLC icon, it can be clearly seen that it doesn't align with "your" other IV icon, the V is suddenly hollow in the middle, the height isn't the same and IV has a gradient in the filler wich should be glitter in EFLC, but is also not pressent.

 

Now just stop pushing this further, you can remake them, you can just delete the ones I did, or you can properly give credits to all the original authors, cause I'm almost positive I'm not the only one in your pack.

BTW I also notified NexusMods, and YouTube, so take a look at those accounts, altho I'm sure you only came here after you saw the YT notification, as when zanesix told you here on GTAForums (over a week ago) you didn't even reply.

 

My icon to the left, the one you published to the right, you can put them in two layers in an image editing program, stack them as difference, and you'll se they're EXACTLY the same:

 

 

And the same for the EFLC one, mine to the left, the one Blackbird88 did in the middle, the one you published to the right, as you can see, doesn't align with your IV one, but it perfectly does with mine and I just discovered it's exactly the one Blackbird88 did:

I realized his suposed EFLC icon was in reality the one Blackbird88 edited.

When I got interested in to having high quality icons I wasn't planning on making anything or releasing it. I was just searching for icons and using them. I wasn't lucky enough to find any for SA so then I made my own, same goes for any other icon I posted except for EFLC and VC. I apologize for this as I didn't mean to post someone else's work. I was just unaware of existing icon packs so I thought it would be good sharing with other people. I'm going to remove any icons from my pack that I didn't work on. Since I don't have time to work on VC and EFLC icons this week I guess I'm gonna have to take down the video on YT.

As for zanesix 's reply, I forgot to follow the topic so I didn't receive a notification.

And again, I'm sorry for posting your icons. I don't even specialize in graphics and visuals so I'm not even trying to compete with any of the icon packs. It was honestly a personal (partially made by me) project that I wasn't planning on sharing on the first place.
