IV Released IV Side-Activities

[Zolika1351]

 

Have you ever played through the game and then got bored because there was nothing left to do? This mod brings you fun and unique side-activities that you can play at any time! They aren't story-related in any way, and are mostly 3D era and Saints Row style activities that make zero sense but are fun to play.

 

Made entirely with IV-SDK, compatible with game versions 1.0.8.0 and 1.0.7.0.

 

Side-activity list:

Spoiler

Stunt Show (SP & MP)

Basically the stunt mode from Crashday, get as many points as possible from flying, flipping, rolling and generally making havoc around the city with your car.

 

Derby (SP & MP)

Heavily inspired by FlatOut 2, this activity pits you against 9 opponents in the Meadows Park arena. Cars explode instantly upon their health bar getting drained, and you're disqualified if you don't hit anyone for 15 seconds.

 

Car Thefts (SP & MP)

The ultimate map knowledge challenge, there are 7 cars Stevie wants you to get, and this time all you have is a single picture per car. While this may seem simple, it can take 4 hours or more if you don't know your way around Liberty too well. More cars will likely be added in the future to keep it challenging.

 

Races (SP only)

Have you ever wondered what'd happen if the worst AI in existence was pitted against you in a 64 car race? This activity is exactly that and it's an absolute clusterf*ck. Inspired by Re-Volt's Clockwork Carnage mode.

 

High Jump (SP & MP)

Another activity from the FlatOut series, you can launch yourself out of your car at any angle, and with this you have to hit the LC24 tower as high above the ground as you can.

 

Stone-Skipping (SP & MP)

With the same system as High Jump, skip across the ocean as far as you can. Apart from points for distance traveled, a bounce also gives +100 points.

 

Insurance Fraud (SP & MP)

Straight from Saints Row, throw yourself into as many things as possible to rack up a crazy cash bonus.

 

Pursuit (SP only)

NFS Most Wanted but with more explosions. Aside from bounty, there are also objectives such as trading paint, destroying cop vehicles and pursuit length.

 

Drift (SP & MP)

Drift a modified Sabre Turbo down the streets of Liberty City, getting as many points as possible. Stacking drifts can lead to insane combos which multiply points gained.

 

Bowling (SP & MP)

Roman's favorite game except the pins are 10 times as large and you're the bowling ball. Launch yourself into the pins and knock down as many as possible.

 

Lowrider (SP only)

The classic minigame from SA now in IV, complete with hydraulics.

 

Classic Races (SP & MP)

Drive circles around Algonquin as fast as possible while avoiding traffic. You're on a timer, completing a lap will give you an extra 80 seconds.

 

Bomb Run (SP & MP)

A bomb is strapped to your car, which will explode if your car's speed drops below the minimum shown on the HUD. Go through as many checkpoints as possible without blowing up. Each checkpoint increases the minimum speed by 10km/h.

 

Survival (SP & MP)

Survive against an endless onslaught of enemies for as many waves as possible. Kills give points that you can use to restock between waves.

 

Offroad

A ton of different gamemodes with one thing in common: They're all set on an infinite stretch of hilly terrain.

Spoiler

Capture the Flag (SP & MP)

16 cars pitted against each other in a capture the flag match, what could possibly go wrong?

 

Return the Flag (SP & MP)

Same as CTF but the objective is to bring the flag to a marked dropoff point 5 times.

 

Jamboree (SP & MP)

A random checkpoint is picked out of many each time, and the first car to go through it will get a point. Go through 15 checkpoints to win.

 

Checkpoint Hunt (SP & MP)

Go through as many checkpoints as possible before anyone else does. Each checkpoint will deactivate after a car passes through it.

 

Pathfinder (SP & MP)

Go through all checkpoints as fast as possible.

 

Pass the Bomb (SP only)

A bomb is strapped onto a random car and is set to explode in 30 seconds. Pass it on by ramming another car, the last person to pass it on before it explodes gets 3 points. Everyone else gets 1 point, except for the victim, who gets none.

 

Map Guesser (SP & MP)

You're given a random location on the map and have to mark it with a waypoint. The closer your guess, the more points you get.

 

Time Trial (SP only)
No traffic, no obstructions, just you and a marked route in the city. There are 4 medal times you can beat, finish the track as fast as possible.

 

Speedtrap (SP only)
A race of up to 8 cars around a set of speedtraps, the racer with the highest total recorded speed wins.

Known issues:

- Blips in taxis will always show as M.P. Tutorial

Edited February 5 by Zolika1351
v2.8

[catsmackaroo]

2 more 'issues':

Spoiler

When taxi-ing to them they're just labeled as M.P. Tutorial... I wonder why it has this label!! PC ver doesn't even have it

Spoiler

Another issue, should probably have all islands unlocked during races, otherwise things like this happen

 

 

Other suggestions:
 

Spoiler

1 - Customization:

   1a. Have togglable radar icons (or have it so they only show up when they're close, otherwise radar is clogged)

   1b. Setting race opponent numbers. Running on 1060, i7, 16 GB ram and my game is like slideshow type beat

   1c. Being able to adjust winning money amounts. 10k for 1 kill in derby could be pretty broken since people could do it at the beginning of the game and be buff as hell! I think, if possible, should adjust as the game progresses (perhaps depending on location, change difficulty..Alderney being the most difficult!), or just have it reduced, OR have a simple configuration file(s).

Spoiler

2 - Mode Suggestions:

   2a. Twisted Metal - Have all vehicles' health tripled or more, and then give vehicles weapons, like being able to shoot rockets, miniguns (reduced damage/rate of fire ofc), etc etc... but make it so it's like TLAD/GTA Race where you gotta pick up weapons first. Like start with some dinky sh*t-tier weapon like a pistol, then you can grab armor/protection, rockets, etc. The objective is to sort of like deathmatch or last man standing, just survive, and kill as many people as possible. A person with the most cash wins (and you get 150 each minute or so?)

   2b. Insurance Fraud - Togglable ragdoll, and when you're given ragdoll, reduce gravity and apply a push. Any bit of damage gives cash, and has a requirement of 25k, 50k, 100k... each one being its own level!!

   2c. Rampages - Simple mode like GTA SA/V where you just go on an absolute frenzy, survival wave-type beat!! Given certain weapons, possible certain challenges (e.g get a number of headshots for extra $)

   2d. Hitman - Like the car thefts activity but with people... I'd give it an element of randomized so every playthrough of the mode feels unique. Give challenges to keep it fresh, e.g use a special weapon for extra $, make it look like an accident (explosion from non-player?!)...etc etc.

Released v1.2
Reduced derby wrecked reward to 5000$
Races now unlock all islands upon starting them
Mission start blips are now set as short-range
Added setup screen to Races
Races now no longer fail if you don't end up in 1st place

 

@catsmackaroo I'll look into those mode suggestions when I have time

[Zolika1351]

Released v1.5

Added Pursuit
Improved Car Theft HUD behavior

[Nick Gerse]

Here's a suggestion, Liberty City Survivor mode from GTA III/LCS inside the Alderney State Correctional Facility or other big empty spaces like Port Tudor.

Beat The Cock challenge from San Andreas could also be a cool addition
 

Edited October 20, 2021 by Nick Gerse

[catsmackaroo]

More issues!

Spoiler

1. Comet effects gained from Pursuit applies to all Comets, even newly spawned ones

2. Not necessarily an issue, but should be adjusted. You should still take damage during Insurance Fraud UNLESS you're ragdolling. It's that way in Saints Row, and I think it should be like that here! Also if there's a way to make it so you take damage from bullets even during ragdoll, that'd be good since police can be exploited for points

3. Lowrider for some reason launched me at the end  

 

(ignore scoring, thanks in advance)

More suggestions!

Spoiler

1. Cancelling activities

2. Activities should teleport you back to where it began, win or loss! It should also delete any vehicles spawned from the activity, as this can be exploited really easily

3. Tutorials at the beginning of more activities (pursuit was kind of confusing & overwhelming at first)

4. Some pedestrians dancing & cheering during Lowrider would be pretty cozy

A rampage mode would be great. Maybe give the enemy gangsters same weapon as the player for rampage so it's fair challenge (would be too easy if automatic gun vs gangsters with pistols) and a twist on the Rockstar formula.

Mr Zolika i am a big fan of yours. I got to know you since i have been searching for a reliable GTA 4 mod menu. After Rockstar games's slap to the face ''GTA:Definitive Edition'' release,  Now you make this... I was going to buy GTA Trigology. But now all i want is to support the work of you and other dedicated  modders of GTA community.I want to send some money as a gratitude for this mod. Because I love GTA 4 and with this ''Content'' pack you literally improved the game 10 times better. 

 

If you by any means looking foward to add something more. Can you please consider these suggestions for Singleplayer.  Me and surely many others would be grateful.

 

Singleplayer Deathmatch  (Already playable Multiplayer with GTA:Connected)

Singleplayer Mafiya Work   (Already playable Multiplayer with GTA:Connected)

Singleplayer GTA Race  (Where you use weapons to kill opponents while racing. and they can do the same to you. this includes pistols automatic weapons granades molotovs etc) (Already playable Multiplayer with GTA:Connected)

Singleplayer Cops n crooks (Already playable Multiplayer with GTA:Connected)

Singleplayer Turf War (Already playable Multiplayer with GTA:Connected)

Singleplayer Deal breaker/Hangman's NOOSE/Bomb da base II missions  (Already playable Multiplayer with GTA:Connected)

I know a lot of game developers and modders are not very keen on creating AI bots for games. You dont need to do it. But i believe you can. You dont have to add AI opponents. You can set time limit,Harder to achieve mission handicaps etc. Just please make these happen. I believe in you.

 

1 more thing. Can you send me your paypal please. Instead of giving money to Take-two interactive. I want to give it to you. they are already living in yachts mansions etc. But it would definitely cheer me up if you could accept my gratitude.

I have a Patreon page (linked in my trainer's About section) where you could bring these suggestions up but considering how hard all of these would be it'd have to be one mode per month

Don't think so. Think you have to die (if the activity even allows that) or reload a save file.

 

Anyway while I'm here, take the Drift mode and modify it for TLAD (replace the Sabre GT with a Hakuchou Custom)

[YMB Deuce]

Hey anyway you can add a fight club activity for niko. if not it's ok, at least it was worth asking.

Heres an idea, what if you added a downforce modifier to the npc racers so they were a little harder. Idk what that would take so its just a thought

[RampageFM]

Is this compatible with EFLC?

[universetwisters]

Sorry if I missed any discussion about it, but how hard would it be to bring MP’s mafiya work into single player? The player can find Petrovic’s contract in his phone, dial it, and a random job could be assigned to them! Idk something to think about
