v wip [WIP] GTA: Universe

New Screenshot from Interstate 7/Route 68 (Route 66) - Creoul Summit Freeway [WIP of course ]

<snip>

I'm usually pretty cynical about projects like these, but those mountains look Rockstar quality. Hope you manage to finish this bro.

 

Thanks, and the mountains on this picture are only the geometry and ive put a lot of details and smoothed some edges so it really looks like one of the R* made mountains ^^

 

And this project cant be finished.

we always will expand the map so long how we want and can.

The goal actually is expand the map so long until we dont want to expand it even more.

So if we going to be able to finish Robada we will going to Northern San Andreas. After that to Oregon etc..

 

And we will release region by region.

 

It's like American Truck Simulator all over again.

I dont know how it is in American Truck Simulator ^^

 

But we will release Creoul Summit when it is finished maybe next month.

So we will release region by region.

 

For me, thats not a bad idea, bcs we can maybe get in this way more attention and you guys can find bugs and see what quality we are delivering and you guys can then follow the progress.

But maybe i will start a poll when Creoul Summit is finished if you guys want that i release region by region or i should complete a whole island before release.

If you somehow manage to make it all the way to New York, will you just put in Liberty City from IV?

well even if it takes maybe 15 years before i managed to the east coast and there is a chance that it doesnt will happen, of course.

Its the HD Universe and therefore i dont have a other choice than bcs the actions that happened in GTA IV are happened in GTA V too.

Amazing! I appreciate the amount of effort you're putting into this. Those mountains really do look top quality, so I'm hyped to see what you do next. Best of luck!

[Krox 836]

Started to work on the details for the Mountains in Creoul Summit.

 

When I put myself into the making, than there is a chance that Creoul Summit will be released end of next week

@Krox

Will you be using CodeWalker to add vehicle paths ?

[Krox 836]

@Krox

yep

[mould122 73]

Vehicle paths already, getting hyped! Are you planning to release the blueprint of the area? And if so, will we have it in the in-game hud/map?

[_MK_ 7,697]

^ColdWalker also has train paths,and the last thing i heard was dexyfex is working on ped paths.

[Krox 836]

The blueprint is not accurate and therefore not good for a hud.

And i dont know if it is even possible right now

 

But the hud comes later when we finished Southern San Andreas

[SodaDog 473]

I can tell this is going to be amazing.

[Mintal 539]

Dude, when you have the durability to finish that mod - in such quality - then this will be one of the - if not THE - most epic Grand Theft Auto Mod ever. Period.

 

Take all the time you need, your progress looks great so far, and don't let yourself getting rushed by some impatient forum members or GTA fans.

 

Thumbs up!

[_MK_ 7,697]

How about a in-game screenshot tease ?

[Krox 836]

How about a in-game screenshot tease ?

When GTARandom has time again.

I will finish the region first, maybe next week there will be a ingame screenshot and maybe the release of Creoul Summit

[Robabank 36]

Where are you going to put places like Red County and Flint County at? Would red county be part of Southern San Andreas

Red County will be definitly skipped otherwise Southern San Andreas will be too big.

And Death Valley National Park will be in Flint County on the top left near the border between Robada and San Andreas

Why not put Flint in Northern San Andreas because of the bigfoot references and the forest because Death Valley is in the desert

We can thing about it later when i get to this stage

since you want to expand your map, why dont you convert the map from the game "the crew" instead? or for the terrain convert some HD meshes from Flight simulator X/X-Plane 10/11 like the HD Mesh scenery http://www.alpilotx.net/downloads/x-plane-10-hd-mesh-scenery-v3/? Wouldnt it speed up the work?

It would be boring if i only convert the the crew map and the crew has a very unvarieted map where it is really boring to drive there

We want to make a very varieted map with lot of details

 

This is a from Scratch made mod and not a total conversion, so we dont will rip any models from other games

 

Time doesnt matter here, we want to make a good mod

Krox can you show us a map of what the final product is going to look like?

Not really right know ^^

I have a blueprint but i changed so much that the blueprint is not accurate at all right now.

I will look tomorrow that i can show you guys whole creoul summit, without details of course but regarding the size

But i can not promise that, maybe i need more time before i can show you guys whole creoul summit

[Krox 836]

I changed the Mod name officialy to "GTA: Universe"

The reason is, since we are doing Southern San Andreas firstly, we are not only focussing on Robada.

And the Mod plan is actually to expand the GTA V Map geographical correct with new regions like Creoul Summit that iam working on that will be released bit by bit.

 

So, the goal in this Mod is not only doing 1 state.

Of course we are only focussing on 1 state firstly but for the future i mean.

Nice, I'd only suggest changing the font color from gradient brown to something else, since it's very hard to read now.

[Yannerrins 386]

Well, in any case, good luck to you. You are doing a great stuff!

Later I will share with you suggestions about police cars for future areas.

 

 

 

P.S. Maybe you'll draw something from this OldGTAVConceptMapWhichSomtoneMakeIn2012:

Thanks ^^

 

But maybe you guys can help me creating the other part of Southern San Andreas? ^^

It would be more useful

 

I wanted to make in the near future some new Trains like the EMD F59PHI locomotive and the carriages, so a parody of the Coaster Train

 

 

 

 

 

 

Maybe calling it than Pacificliner?

 

I actually started a bit to work on a parody of the EMD F59PHI

 

But it isnt much progress

 

 

 

 

 

And making some new cars for Southern San Andreas and even some Futuristic Vehicles

[mould122 73]

I wouldn't hurry up with trains yet, because that isn't the main thing, map itself is. Also I think you need more modellers and such on your crew to achive the goals quicker, and thats why I hope there are still more skillful people on the forums than just you 3.

[universetwisters 32,177]

I would splurge out about trains and give you ideas left and right but I agree with mould, the map should get the utmost priority at this point. Don't waste your time on trains (least of all sh*tty looking ones like an F59PH like f*cking EWWW dude) when you have barely a map at this point. Get the map at least finished and then you can goof around with other sh*t, but when your priorities get askew like this then you're just asking for trouble.

[_MK_ 7,697]

This is some great stuff man,but i have to say,creating trains and cars from scratch is time consuming,IMO it would be better just to use what we have from the game regarding vehicles and trains,so that will give you the time to focus on the map which is the main objective here.
