sa released City of Chicago

[thalilmythos 873]

This is going to need some serious Props placement on the streets to not look so empty, but so far, it looks awesome, even with all the flatness of the map

[Wakka387 573]

Bibidibabidi has done some more texture replacements

 

[Grinch_ 527]

idk but some of the textures are lokking pretty odd?Wont it be better to keep the original game colors with a little bit hi quality texs?

I am making retextures and of course I am agree with you, some textures are looking little bit odd because I don't have game models, only got 32*32 textures and I try to understand what does that texture represents from very low quality texture and retexture it to 512*512 version After I got playable beta probably I will correct odd textures

I have texture library I have collected them from google images for a long time. I am making customizations and supportings for actual textures' sizes and positions with paint.net

So we now have the James_UK map ported (mostly completed Chicago map)Which means, NO MORE MISSING BUILDINGS/ROADS! So now work can properly begin

*Current screenshots taken with LQ Texture version, same changes will exist on HQ texture version aswell*

*Note* we are aware that the radar is askew. it will be fixed soon

What's an airport without any planes?








Also, added a few weapon spawns scattered around (just some test spawns)

 

 

new HD version screens

Cool! Does it include LODs?

Lods havnt been done yet but they will be down the line

[LeakyLine 6,106]

Found this through the RCRP discord. This is looking really good so far, dude.

[Wakka387 573]

Successfully added real life Chicago radio streams through the use of SAORS (San Andreas Own Radio Station) and included their real life Icons

 

[LeakyLine 6,106]

Wait, do they actually stream? Is that even possible?

[MenuET 208]

That PlayStation1 Quality doesnt require LODs at all. Maybe the same model with a 32x32 texture, but still overall it does need none.

[turbocharger 1,014]

From what've seen, the authors are aiming for a higher quality than it was in the original game, and maximum draw distance without LODs is 299 which is tiny, so LODs are a must by SA standards.

[Wakka387 573]

yes, and yes.

[bibidibabidibu 118]

some new screens from stadium and streets around there.

[-Anti- 263]

So what's the secret car in the stadium?

Or ist it secret till release?

secret

[universetwisters 31,564]

Hit me up if you need any police vehicles or whatever done. This looks like it might be going someplace now.

[Derrick Keno 260]

Don't forget about the xvehicleenv128!

[Sergiu 4,921]

Definitely liking where this is going.

 

Only thing I would like to suggest is splitting up some streets and making them smaller or turning them into alleys. The city feels a bit too straight forward and simplified overall in structure.

trust me, there are lots of alleyways that are unmarked.

 

we should be releasing an early alpha version sometime in the next week or so.

[Mr.Kurowski 198]

I'd say, do not rush on releasing an alpha...take your time.

[NikoBellic_ 38]

good job dude.

[bibidibabidibu 118]

wakka sent some gameplay screens to me, here they are

 

[Wolf_ 199]
