Help! I cannot make two mods work properly on GTA III


Recommended Posts

Mods I am trying to install is Skin and Bones mod and Xbox Vehicles mod. Here are links for both of them:

Skin and Bones: http://gtaforums.com/topic/815077-skin-and-bones/

 

First off I am gonna start with XBox vehicles. What I am trying to achieve is basically create a 'definitive' version of GTA III that has all of the best features across all platforms. So I tried to install Xbox vehicles since they are HD. And what I got is this:DU2jAOQ.jpg

(Picture is not by me but I got the exactly same problem)

Textures on Fish Gang car are white and Flatbed/Barracks OL (I don't remember which since they are too similar) is completely textureless. Also, all cars' engine textures are completely white too as you can see in the pic.

 

With Skin and Bones mod, I got this:

(Sorry about Trails being set 'on' as that's why picture with Catalina is blurry)

Every NPC other than the default Claude (with leather jacked and green pants) is messed up with textures, even Claude with prison outfit is messed up. IDK why and asking for help.

 

Also, I installed them multiple times and I think it is not caused by installation process.

 

Also again, that's list of mods that I also used, as they may cause the error:

Gınput III

Destroyable Airtrain

Widescreen Fix & Frontend

Project2DFX

Transparent Menu

SilentPatch

SkyGFX

AsiLoader

You might just be better of installing the gta III XBox HD mod:

It has some things you want to install on your game as well as some bugfixes for the xbox vehicles.

And it has some features which I don't like too such as Xbox menu.

 

And IIRC it has caused me problems too.

The Skins if for the skin type the pc version is not compatible with xbox textures

Yeah we aldready know that. Sorry but you're not helpful as this is an obvious thing. Edited by AjdarFan

Not sure if this will help but have you tried deleting your gta3.set file? Found in Documents\GTA3 User Files.

I had some similar errors once and it came down to the game needing to reconvert the textures. (Does this on first boot after installation).

OK, I have to ask, everytime I've installed the Xbox vehicles I've had no issues, HOW exactly are you installing them?

Don't do that, the Xbox Vehicles should come in their own IMG, you don't need to touch anything in it, just go to gta3.dat and add this line under object types:

CDIMAGE MODELS\VEHICLES_XBOX.IMG

 

And that's it, the game will now load the Xbox vehicles properly in place of the default ones.

I tried that before aswell. Exact same result. Also one thing to note, my gta 3 folder does not have any txd img for some reason. I guess everything is inside of gta3 img file. I use a crack to not bother with inserting a cd, maybe that's due to that. and that was long ago, I copied all files into a usb and I don't have original disc anymore. I guess I will just have to buy the crappy version on steam and downgrade it.

What about the "skins" folder? You need to copy and paste the "bmp" file from the skin and bones mod. I did it that way and worked for me. Don't know why, but I installed the Xbox Mod with modloader and the game didn't process the files in "skins" folder. And that makes Claude look like a shoeless foot alien with dropped pants. Another thing: Don't install the gta3.img from the Xbox Mod! Install the character's .dff and .txd into the original gta3.img from the game with something like IMG Factory. Otherwise Claude's head looks weird in cutscenes. And then just paste the xbox_vehicles.img from the Xbox Mod into the game folder and it should work well!
