A Day in Liberty

[Sergi4UA 71]

An open-source GTA III modification

Now available at ModDB:

 

A Day in Liberty is a mod that aims to re-create the atmosphere of GTA1 and GTA2 in Grand Theft Auto III's environment. The goal of the mod is to earn enough money to buy Catalina's house in Shoreside Vale.

In the current version you can buy property which will generate revenue up to specific point. In 0.9 five rampages are availalbe for you to complete.

Mission difficulty range from Easy to HARD.

 

Small F.A.Q

Q: How many missions?
A: There are currently 14 missions. Difficulty ranges from very easy to hard.

Q: Any new features?
A: Yup. Ability to buy property and special events (police activity in Portland after beating a certain mission, gang members becoming unhappy, etc.)

Q: How can I contribute?
A: If you're a 3D-modeller you can help by redesigning the sewers level or if you know how to create missions, some missions for the mod (you will be credited ingame, of course)

Q: How can I contact you?
A: I have a Discord: Sergi4UA#0551

Q: Help! My game crashes!
A: The game can crash for various reasons, but the most common is that you A) incorrectly installed the mod or B) mod is conflicting with other mods. A fresh install of GTA3 1.0 without any CLEO scripts or other mods is recomended.

Q: My game crashes while I'm on a mission...

A: Yeah I know that feel (my game can crash over 100+ times while editing scripts). Please report the bug here (you can also use the mod's Discord server and GitHub issue tracker) and give as much information as you can (what you did before the game crash, what mission you're on, etc.).

Q: Steam version?
A: CLEO doesn't work right with the Steam version. If you are experiencing troubles running the game on Steam, please downgrade to 1.0 and try again. Also removing any mods that change the gameplay may help.

First.

 

Hmm, it looks rather interesting, but you just gotta buy that mansion and it's done?

In the current version (0.8) you can't buy the mansion for obvious reason 😛 : don't think you can "just buy it" without completing a mission to claim it... Unfortunately I don't have any idea of what kind of a mission to create for it  

EDIT:  Originally I had the idea of a system like in GTA1/GTA2: radar starts to blink with a pink marker, the player then need to step on the blue sphere to complete the mod.

Added original idea

Man this is impressive, the missions are really cool good job and continue the good work  

[Staunton Assassin 1,756]

@Sergi4UA: I like the style of your modification. No over-the-top map changes, no new cars etc. Just a new set of perfectly-made missions for the evergreen III.

 

P.S: I think you should decrease the ammo given for the Sniper Rifle in "Sniper Exercise". In my opinion, 100 bullets are too much. I think it should be 20 because there aren't that many enemies to deal with in that mission.

Thanks for the nice feedback. I will decrease the bullets given to around 15-20 in the next update

Holy crap this looks like a challenge. Can’t wait to try it out !

[Staunton Assassin 1,756]

@Sergi4UA: For the sewers, you could use the sewers map from this modification. It will fit in with this modification nicely. Just remember to ask Zmey20009 for permission first.

@The Eddo: Yeah, I know about this. I was planning to use this, but it will require some intensive map editing because the author (or Rockstar Games when they made the sewer map) decided to put it somewhere in Portland up in the sky. Will still PM the author for permission, though .

The map being above Trenton shouldn't be a problem. The sewers map deserves to be in III, no matter where it's located on the map. However, it is entirely your choice to include it into your modification or not.

@The Eddo: Already PM'ed the author... I will probably require some help with editing the map , because it's rendered above Trenton and is visible in gameplay (even if you are not inside the interior) which is bad and look awful

@Sergi4UA: Better yet, PM dimzet13 instead because he added the sewers map with the following improvements in his Snow City mod for III:

 

1. The sewer water is unsolid and behaves like shallow water instead of concrete floor.

2. Due to the sewer water behaving like shallow water, water splash sound effects and particle effects are heard and seen when Claude moves on the water surface.

3. The best improvement of all: Dimzet13 placed the map under the bank in Ghost Town, which is perfect for your mod.

 Thanks for letting me know. Will do that as soon as possible

 

While you guys are waiting for 0.9, here's some screenshots and updates:

- "Fastest Cars" mission written and complete

- The player will no longer spawn in Portland after dying there (if the mission "Leaving Portland" is completed)

- LCS safe house ported to GTA III and will be available to the player for purchase (with a little surprise maybe?)

- Property in LC now begins at 100.000$+

 

Video of the mission:

This mod definitely have the potential. Good luck!

 

Feel free to use The Sewer map from my Mutiplayer Mod. And feel free to ask any help

 

A long time ago, I had an idea to make a sewer system for Liberty City using models from multi4. Why don't you use this idea?

Thanks  Already using them along with IDE/IPL positions from DimZet's snow mod (permission asked and got). Currently I will attempt to make "Back to the Roots" a lot interesting and maybe  a little harder...

Will think about a system to enter sewers to complete side quests or something like that in the future.

 

[Sergi4UA 71]

Some updates

Back to the Roots 2.0:

 

 

Back to the Roots completely "remastered" using the new sewers model by @Zmey20009 and @DimZet 

Newport safehouse:

 

Newport safehouse from LCS has been fully ported to GTA III. You can buy it and save your game there (along with Uzi and Health pickups).

As always, stay tuned for more  

[Staunton Assassin 1,756]

@Sergi4UA: Nice work on "Back to the Roots", but I think you should remove the spheres and the radar blips because Claude is supposed to find the vault and the exit. Also, having more SWAT guys scattered all over the tunnels and a bar representing 8-Ball's health would be nice too. It should add more fun to the mission.

@The Eddo Thanks  As for the blips/spheres... that was a debugging feature

8-Ball is immortal in this mission due to some path and collision bugs (that's why he teleports to you when you reach the vault, because he could easily get stuck in the wall  ). Maybe I can get this fixed, but I don't know how the path system works

shouldn't you make the safehouse the building next to it? It has a garage with an interior too

@Gamerjman19 That will be fixed in the release build. Can't say anything about the garage for now.

UPDATE: Vote is active on porting "A Day in Liberty" to the Liberty City TC mod. 0.9 will still be released for GTA III.

Edited February 22 by Sergi4UA

[Sergi4UA 71]

Sorry for double-post. I with Simonoff have an idea of porting this mod to GTA Liberty City Total Conversion mod. Poll is active at the top of this page.

Voting will end on the last day of February.

[Jeansowaty 5,636]

A new mission has been done

 

[xSapphirePlayz 150]

[Sergi4UA 71]

Vote ended. The mod will be ported to Liberty City Total Conversion mod for Vice City.

0.9 will release within the next 2 weeks.

There are currently no plans to add Vice City... but this decision might change in the future Currently I'm planing to add Liberty City Countryside map by @AdusPL, when it's complete

Not really. By "countryside" I mean Upstate Liberty, unseen in the original GTA III (it's only mentioned on the radio)

[Sergi4UA 71]

Sorry for a LONG delay. I recently released a CLEO mission with @Jeansowaty for GTA San Andreas called Forgive and Forget  Oh and... expect some new CLEO missions from me.

Anyways, up to the news.

 

A Day in Liberty is currently in process of being ported to GTA Liberty City mod. For those who don't know GTA Liberty City is a total conversion mod for GTA Vice City that aims to convert GTA 3 to GTA Vice City engine. You can learn more about this mod by visiting this link. Early builds of the mod will be available to my patrons or by becoming a contributor (for that, just link any mod you were featured in; in PMs of course). Why I decided to do this? Well... I don't need to explain what happened to our world, don't I? Oh and early builds can be very buggy at times...

 

Anyways, some news for the GTA 3 mod

I'm currently working on 0.9.1. It will be a small update that will fix issues with CLEO. So you no longer need to delete your CLEO-scripts.

 

Anyways, stay tuned and here's a little video of the first mission done in GTA Liberty City:
