SA Released [SA|REL] Things To Do In San Andreas: Overall Improvements

[TheTurretTheo 214]

 

  

 

  

 

So after more than a year, I've finally made a seperate forum post for this...
Overall Improvements aims to revive the abandoned volume 2 by porting most of its features to a more stable form. (The leaked volume 2 was really unstable)
Apart from adapting features from volume 2, new peds, new vehicles, bug fixes, more dialogue and more have been added.
This release is based on Crspy's Fixed Volume 1, so it features all his additions as well.

 

Some Features

• All vehicles cut by DeeZire are now restored. The ones he replaced them with are now seperate vehicles
• New cut vehicles have been re-added, the Bloodring Banger B and the FBI Car
• New clothes. For example the new GSF clothing after reaching 100% turf control
• Police helicopters are now controlled by actual police pilots, killing the pilot results in the heli crashing.
• New police officers and gang members have been added along with unused unique voice lines. (A LOT of voice lines were cut, Example: VOICE_EMG_ARMY1, 2 and 3)
• The cut drive to the cemetery in 'Big Smoke' has been restored. Along with some removed voice lines in 'Sweet & Kendl'
• The supporting character, Guppy, now has a unique skin
• Recreated 4 of the 10 hidden mobile exclusive cheats
• The cut vigilante variant, 'Vice Squad' for the Cheetah, has been restored
• Revamped DeeZire's AWOL Angel
• If you start Los Sepulcros with insufficient respect, now an otherwise inaccessable part of the mission will unlock. (I made some minor changes to this part)
• If you have previously started 'Are You Going To San Fierro?' and failed, you no longer have to pay another $25,000 to re-start the mission
• The Four Dragons casino will now be an asset after 'Fish In a Barrel'
• The help messages about being wasted and busted now don't take away player control anymore (it is now like Vice City)
• In 555 WE TIP, you now have to drive into the garage to plant the weed in the car (This is a recreation of a beta objective)
• Cesar and OG Loc now appear with their beta appearances in certain missions.
• You are now correctly able to reach 100% completion, instead of reaching it prematurely even if you haven't completed everything yet

Installation Instructions

Spoiler

DOWNGRADING TO v1.0:
-v1.0 DVD --> no action needed
-v1.0 DVD + v1.01 patch --> reinstall without the patch
-v2.0 DVD / Steam / RGL --> use the downgrader by George Costanza

 

CRACKED EXECUTABLE (DO THIS AFTER THE PREVIOUS STEP):
-Download the 'v1.0 [US] HOODLUM No-CD Fixed EXE'

 

REQUIRED PROGRAMS:
-IMGFactory (or any other IMG Editor)
-WinRar (or any other file archiver)

 

REQUIRED MODS:
-Cleo 4 + Silent's ASI Loader
-Modloader

 

RECOMMENDED:
-SilentPatch (Basically a requirement, fixes a COUNTLESS amount of bugs)
-WidescreenFix (For those who use modern monitors)
-SkyGFX (PS2 graphics)
-GInput (Correct controller support)

 

EXTRAS: (These features were originally in TTDISA but where removed for better stability)
-RBRD Overhaul (Set the icon ID to 66 for a special blip included in TTDISA OV)
-Ped Attractor

 

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Open the downloaded file with WinRar (or any other file archiver)

2. Once opened, open the '1. Mod' folder and drag and drop 'TTDISA OV' into your modloader directory.

3. Modloader doesn't load cutscene files so you have to install them manually (Not installing these will break certain cutscenes and missions):
   (If you are too lazy to do this yourself, you can download an already edited cuts.img HERE)
   -Copy cuts.img from 'GTA San Andreas\anim' and paste it in 'GTA San Andreas\modloader\TTDISA OV\anim'
   -Open IMGFactory
   -In IMGFactory, open the new cuts.img (In GTA San Andreas\modloader\TTDISA OV\anim)
   -Then import all the files from the '2. Cutscene Files' folder
   -When it asks you to import or replace, press replace (It may notify you about an Unknown Version, but you can just press 'close' on that pop-up)
   -Then press 'Rebuild'
4. You can also drag and drop the 'TTDISA EXTRA' folders from the mods in '3. Optional' if you want those features.
5. Set TTDISA OV to a high priority in your modloader.ini file (If you're using an extra feature, set TTDISA EXTRA higher than TTDISA OV), for example:
   [Profiles.Default.Priority]
   ttdisa extra = 97
   ttdisa ov = 96

 

IMPORTANT:

Use gta_sa.exe (not gta-sa.exe) to start. Also, you need to set this exe's campatibility mode to 'Windows 7' and enable 'Administrator Mode' (If possible).

 

THIS MOD IS (OBVIOUSLY) NOT COMPATIBLE WITH SAMP AND ANY TOTAL CONVERSION, OR AT LEAST ANY MOD THAT CHANGES THE MAIN.SCM

 

Some people's game doesn't start, to fix this, delete every language other than English (american.gxt & american.ini) in the mods text folder

 

Also, be sure to delete any other installations of the Limit Adjusters (Fastman & Open), because this will cause crashes.

Nice, but putting a link to a cracked EXE is literally unsafe on the forums.

I like this! Very nice work, TTDSA needed an overhaul.

 

I have two question though, I don't think the LCS Forellis and Sindaccos fit well in SA, I personally think it should be better to have the normal SA mafia goons instead.

Have you used their LCS mobile version of them? They look very wonky, I think there is a problem in their rigging as well, I think.

 

Why change Cesar and OG Loc to their beta version? Could you post a comparison? Thanks.

 

 

Other than that, like I said above, this is one nice overhaul of the old version. Great work.

Thanks. I agree with you that the LCS models don't really look good, so I'll look into replacing them.

Cesar's and OG Loc's beta versions are only present in certain missions. I'll edit the OP to specify that.

 

These are the models:

I uploaded a small patch that fixes a mistake I made,

 

Emmet's 2nd and 3rd Angel missions are now correctly available after completing the previous Emmet mission along with the other required missions.

Instead of all 3 missions being available directly after eachother.

 

EDIT: Nice double post btw

 

EDIT 2:

Also added a savegame pack for the LS chapter

Seems like both the enex marker and map icon are missing for the barbershop in Playa del Seville. Is it only an issue on my end?

Huh, alright, thanks. Seems like a weird change to me, but I guess it adds to the overall progression. 🤷‍♂️ Anyway, do you take suggestions?

The hostile gangs feature can be removed by deleting the 'hostgangs.cs' in the cleo folder

[maxim444 46]

Does this mod include CJ speaking mouth animation mod ? Do the SWAT members finally use MP5's like they supposed to ? 

Also thank you so much for continuing this mod !! Appreciate the effort

The problem is probably that you had your game in Spanish before installing this mod, mistake by me.

So set your language to English in-game and then install the mod (Or put the text folder back in your case)

To fix this, delete every language other than English (american.gxt & american.ini) in the mods text folder.

This will be fixed in the next version

The animation fixes have been included since 2017

The swat still uses uzi's tho. I might change that but I want to see how it affects the balancing first

[eagle152 337]

"Follow that vehicle" stuff in Taxi side-mission is quite bugged. There are few problems -

1. Car sometimes spawn too close and you instantly fail the task.
2. Chosen car drives in a completely weird manner. Especially it is noticeable if that car spawns on a highway beneath a hospital in LS. The car is desperately trying to "climb" that ramp.
3. When car is wrecked in a result of any accident without players help (especially if situation #2 happens), mission will stuck. You have to exit the car in order to fix it, thus failing the mission.

[justin50 31]

I remade the loading screen. This time it actually fits the screen.

there's a quite noticeable gap in the ground in the verdant meadow's airstrip, between the hangars and the landing ground

You don´t have to delete the whole folder, just delete every language other than English (american.gxt & american.ini) in the mods text folder.
