Hi everyone, after 10 years and many of them being inactive we've came to the tough decision to finally declare this project dead, we've held out in hopes that people would want to join the team and c

Well ive been thinking, and i think there is somthing wrong with LOD's. Even on the lowest draw distance i see high quality buildings very far away. That might be the cause of the FPS lag on slower Pc's.

San Andreas had very crappy Draw Distance.

 

We've simply updated it to handle the draw distance VCS is suppose to have and to properly cache it, ...so yeah, if you're used to SA Draw Distance, this can be roughly twice to three times the value depending on the weather.

Okay... Since it's mentioned. Is there a possibility in the future to add "a superhigh gfx" setting? Which would load the whole map (real models, not LODs) from the start and maybe even smaller objects (like trees) and increase the car spawn and ped spawn radius?

 

Is something like that possible? I'm pretty sure a lot of computers today would be capable of running that.

The problem could be the engine not being able to handle it.

I'm wondering if I should download it again, I heard there are tons of bugs...

Thank you for your interest >.>

What? I mean is it worth downloading this mod now?

Your question sounded like: "Is your thingy working or broken? I don't want to waste my time on it if it isn't perfect".

No...? He was just asking if it was worth downloading, and could you please mention some of the glitches? I know they were mentioned in the previews 100 pages but obviously I'm not reading through all those. Thanks.

...SERIOUSLY, ...SERIOUSLY? I posted the chart on the PREVIOUS PAGE, that's ONE PAGE BACK, ONE!!! The Number 1, A single page away from a sheet listing the main bugs that were known at that point before I even updated it.

Chill out amigo, he probably didn't know.

 

Aside from that, congrats on the 10,000 downloads! icon14.gifcookie.gif

It's just insane that people say "I'm not reading back hundreds of pages" and yet clearly they're soo lazy they didn't even read back ONE SINGLE PAGE! If the complainers are seriously going to be that redundant then sorry, we're just going to ignore you.

 

For everyone else, I thought this was common forum courtesy, but yeah, if there's a new page since you last came here, try reading the previous page to make sure you're up to date on what's currently being discussed.

 

Bloody hell, I can't believe I have to teach Forum 101 up in here.

Maybe you can post the bug list on the main page? Hell, if you're feeling courageous enough, you could ask the mods to give VCS PC it's own section under "hosted mods". Then, you can post the bug list as a sticky and nobody will miss it icon14.gif

10000 downloads? Really? I thought people weren't really interested in SA modding anymore. It feels good to know that. biggrin.gif

Umm no not really, I killed the goons in the "closed area", got in one of the blocking cars and drove it to the side a bit. Then I got back in the truck (a message appeared, "get Phil back to warehouse" can't exatly remember) and started driving off and it crashed as I was driving out in the narrow corridor.

Then the only solution is all fans will tag "CLICK HERE FOR LIST OF CURRENT BUG" on their signature and link to Ash's post sigh.gif

Yes, it's not done, so don't submit any crash reports or anything, but you can have a wander around the rush converted VC Map over there, even if you just want to check out the finished Leaf Links or nbeachW (where the hotel and fairground is).

Ok, I'm going to ask for a halt on any vehicle related crashes (which is most likely what's happening in these free roam situations), nearly every vehicle has been re-worked since the BETA3 launch and a lot have been fixed or improved in some way or form, so, again, it's just reporting what's already fixed on our side.

Well, and then the mod wouldn't be that far today, because it would be only "interesting" in MP... Just driving around, no mission, no vehicle...

I see so much potential for this mod that im afraid it dies before attaining its best moment.

Once again, I'm obviously speaking multiplayer related.

I said that must be converted map first, before the rest, to not have errors and problems before....

 

Exemple: Beta 1 All Map

Beta 2 Cars and peds

Beta 3 All Missions

 

Of course it would have lasted longer .........
