I didn't take the chance to install it as I would expect it to run very bad with enb enabled, but I did watch the video, I'll be honest with my opinion. - The HUD is ugly large and I think it should be replaced, the radar though is fine. - The protagonist physique (model wise) is over the fence and it's less relatable to the average reality, a tad muscular is fine, anything more than that it starts to feel like he's a plastic toy. - The animations aren't fitting (not all of them though), I mean take a look at the crouch animation, lol... - Cars' speed paths are set too high, you can observe and tell. I like everything else at varies degrees, except the story, I don't speak Russian, so I don't know. Good job really, can't wait for the mod to be finished, also, the radio is a nice touch!

Minde95s 63 Posted Saturday at 08:13 PM Share Posted Saturday at 08:13 PM Ok my opinion. I live in mid-eastern europe and russian is my second language. At least that helped understand what the plot is. It would be funnier if you guys recorded english lines like in GTA IV, thick russian accent made it perfect. World is good, it perfectly captures neon Miami life. But some places felt generic. pr0n "BOOBZ", it's sooooo unnecessary, GTA Criminal Russia had it too, why russian mods has this trend of boobz and pr0no? Well if it was like GTA V or IV artstyle boobs with stars on it then it's ok, but using real boobs? - nah. Maybe you could replace in game artwork and assets with fictional counterparts, instead of using real life products. You can see them a lot in interiors. It just jarring to see real life products. In mission music. It's damn loud. Maybe add option to turn it off and keep all dialog and other sounds? And add more file compression, convert mp3 to 192kbps or 128kbps instead 320kbps to reduce mod size. Radio choise is fine. But old SAORS? Just use ATP. No need to launch game with separate launcher to get radios working. ATP works with this mod but I haven't tested all missions with it, not 100% sure about compatibility with your scripting. Weather is locked, I immediately deleted weather.cs. Why force only one weather setting? "set_weather 0, 01B5: force_weather 1"? Vice City had multiple weathers. Performance (FPS) - It could improve. For me I had to optimise some mod files. PostFx stuff tanks fps. Updated skygfx to latest version and changed some settings. Just copied files from my own GTA SA config and added saturation. Tweaked ENB to my preference, cristal clear graphics as in normal GTA. In MixSets disabled some fps related things. Low clouds, High speed motion blur, Heat waves. Now it runs at semi decent fps. Well thats it for now. Link to post Share on other sites

It's mix of some real life brands with own brands. For Example, every TCs have a Nuke High Corp.,Coca Gold. So, this's notmal, many other GTA-like game make something like that, True Crime series. - Mission music - i'cant find opcode (or memmory adress) which can give me information bout in game volume.

It think my compression is a good balance between size and quality although. And let's remember that there still millions of people around the world that don't have access of good quality internet.

Thanks! - Well, i'm used interface editor not only for remove original hud, change colors and keep watch on screen properly - when i'm used opcode for time in game, it's workin well, but only in interior 0, when 1 or higher time shown wrong. - So, mine hud which have functions for gameplay in future - adding more item - like drugs for example. Animation - yep, gun animation looks bit wrong, but it made like that cuz - it's just stylish, when you used IV-styled aim. - Weather - hm, i can't agree with choice of RLG. I made my weather setting for lore-lookin and atmosphere, not for real life colors. - i don't use Magic. I prefer G-TXD. - About ATP. Hmm...nope. Maybe SAORS.asi, but not a ATP. So, thanks for fixes, but change some original mod-stylish stuff isn't good, it conflict with my original visions of my work.

Some palm trees looks bigger then it can be was in real Miami. Also, some buildings isn't based on real Miami. ( Marina Bay from asian country, maybe Thailand) By the way, i'm trying give only vibe of Miami. Maybe little bit more than it was in orginal Vice City or Gangstar Miami, but less close then Driver 3 or The Crew 2 ( it's pretty close). And...in original it's was been Tiki Islands 2, and Miami-based city was been only one of four islands, of we talkin bout original concept. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Also, if you use enb higher than mod uses - you'll lose building reflection and more other stuff, which newest enb broke. Link to post Share on other sites
