Not as long as we don't know what causes it.

There are some texture entries in the PC generic.txd that do not appear in the xbox version of the file and, for whatever reason, some specific parts of the map are still trying to use those textures. Presumably missing .dff's resulting in it falling back on the PC models? This can be seen on a patch of grass by Hepburn Heights. Using the xbox generic.txd there is a large plot of untextured grass. If you merge the xbox textures into the PC txd then it's textured but it's pretty clearly a blurry low resolution PC texture and it really sticks out right next to the xbox grass texture.

EDIT: Found the issue. Really simple. When using modloader you need to make a folder called data, then move the map folder into that.

Anybody know where I can find a tutorial on how to edit 'gta_vc.dat' because I thought it would be as simple as adding in the line but when I did it didn't work. So if someone could teach me how to install the PS2 map for Vice City that would be great, Thanks!

You don't have to do that, replace all the files through an img editor (IMGTool, IMG Factory or similar) otherwise you will get some bugs. Also, you will need to start a new game

Has anybody tried to port LCS' rendition of Portland Rock into III?

Would be a lovely lore-friendly addition to the map IMO.

I don't think it's either. I sometimes had these objects in white and sometimes they were fine. No idea what's going on there.

Change http to https.

Try to open in new tab will work or pressing the right mouse button or scroll wheel will go to the direct tab.

Hm, this didn't happen before but now iii_anim refuses to load/use the model files inside the modloader folder for all main chars. All other non mission chars (peds) load correctly.

If i remove the iii_anim.asi from the scripts folder, all XBOX model files load just fine.

 

EDIT: Did i seriously sent this post in the xbox/ps2 map topic :D .. sorry. It's been a long time since i checked the modding section in GTAF :D

EDIT 2: I forgot that you have to put skin files into a .IMG archive, i solved it.

Hi, how to fix this? I am using xbox map

This is the settings I'm using on SkyGFX.ini:

; - Sniper trails in VC are enabled


;; If you leave the value empty (e.g. texgenSwitch= ) or remove the line

sh*t, yeah I'll reupload it soon, actually i'll upload a extra IMG which contains all textures from the XBOX version since a lot of txd´s in this mod are broken.

I know this is a 5 year old comment, but did you finally upload it?

will there ever be any updates to try to fix the xbox maps? 

The OP is currently in a legal battle with Take-Two, I doubt there's going to be any motivation to do GTA stuff again regardless of the outcome of the case.

Running the Xbox map, and I haven't seen anyone talk about the white bug issue on the draw bridge.

I think someone already mentioned a warehouse in Trenton having that same issue.

Weird thing is that these places will sometimes get textured.

I extract the dff or txd (from xbox_map.img) files into modloadler. First i search the txd or dff with map editor, and then i search the file in xbox_map.img with "ImgEd" and then export it and the last thing to do is to create a folder in modloader and put that files there

I'm also having this problem. I tried everything, but it didn't solve the problem.
