By the way, do custom railway objects (exp. https://dev.prineside.com/en/gtasa_samp_model_id/model/7499-vegaswrailroad02/), trains work on them too?

As I recall, trains work like usual ped traffic in SA, so you have to change traffic.dat files to change their routes

@Halter I thought you'd forget some of the features I'd ever suggested that have been skipped by so many posts. Anyways, I've just got these suggestions:

- Withstand Physical Attacks option for enemy and neutral actors. (Just like how Uninterrupted from Shots works, but only for physical attacks.)

- Armor Hit Points setting for Teleport from Special Player objective and Player (0, 25, 50, 75, 100, 150).

- 0 Hit Point option for Vehicle and Objective Vehicle's Hit Points. (Similar to how ALLCARSGOBOOM cheat works, but only for the confirmed vehicle.)

- 1 Hit Point option for Teleport from Special Player objective and Player Menu. (Blinking Player's Hit Points and lower than 25 Hit Point option.)

- Knockdown Immunity option for enemy and neutral actors. (Enemies will not get knocked down due to Shotgun shells, Desert Eagle bullets and the final move of all physical combo attacks.)

- Withstand Fire option for all groups of actors. (Just like how Uninterrupted from Shots works, but only for fire damage caused by Molotov, Flamethrower, Fire objects and Random Fires.)

- Withstand Spray and Gas option for enemy and neutral actors. (Just like how Uninterrupted from Shots works, but only for constant coughing caused by Spray Can and Tear Gas.)

- Player will always withstand spray and gas. (Just like how Uninterrupted from Shots works, but only for constant coughing caused by Spray Can and Tear Gas.)

- Photograph All Objects of Group 1 and Photograph All Objects of All Groups Objectives for objective object.

- CJ's armor will always be removed after player has either fail or pass a mission.

- Auto Unflip option for Vehicle and Objective Vehicle.

Halter, can you fix a bug when you shoot from that RC Tank the sound stays bugged even after going to another objective. We're guessing that's just game bug that Rockstar never fixed, but it's so annoying.

Tutorial how to implement Rappelling feature correctly in a mission: 

 

Now we're only waiting for GLUE actors feature (to glue them to a train) and we can do "Follow the damn train CJ" DYOM version

This inspired me for a comeback...

Is it possible to expand the object, actor and objective limit, for example by 50, making it 150 instead of the normal 100?

The problem is that when you create more than 100 Objective or anything, it's all in constant loading and displayed on your screen. That is, a DYOM would not be a DYOM if you had not seen which Actor and what he is wearing in order to understand that it is he who you need. Therefore, I have already tested more than 100 Objectives, you just can’t do them, the game crashes and can’t withstand such a load. The best solution would be to make some kind of ini file where data could be loaded, but then most of the work would have to be done without the game itself

[Toriality]

I dont mind making multiple missions because of the limits. Sometimes its even good to have them.

 

But a suggestion I have is, what about a ini file or a script that loads the next dyom file after the end of its antecessor.

Maybe @HzanRsxa2959 can do something with .ini file. That would be great

It's very good and everything. but the Storyline system is broken, every time I save a SL, when I open the game again the SL is deleted. or on another occasion the SL opens but only the intro and outro are executed.
This problem has been around for a long time and they still haven't fixed it. Can you fix it? If so, it would be the best DYOM ever created

[stepanko101]

Is it possible to somehow decode DYOM.dat to see at least objective's number?

 

I managed to make a translation of my project to other language by opening DYOM.dat with notepad++ and editing the ingame texts, but...

I'm thinking of a voiceover now and it's kinda hard to put recorded stuff blindly to SD. 

So... Is there any way to see an objective's number right next to objective's text without launching the game?

I agree with ACH_GAMES, also it would be nice if you could also expand the storyline feature too, like adding features from the main.scm file from the original SA game, like phone calls between missions or if a fail condition is met, safehouses (maybe allow for custom safehouses with custom waypoints we can create and the original safehouses across SA, maybe stick to the latter), Saving the game like the normal game (allow for 8 saves separate from the standard game), Side missions (separate from the storyline), Carry weapons, Armor and Cash between missions, and Collectibles. If those features were added, expanded and improved upon the lackluster storyline feature we have nowadays in DYOM, it could be the best version we could ever have of the storyline feature, and maybe allow for certain talented DYOM designers like M316 to make Rebound in Storyline format, which could make the experience more engaging, immersive and fun, not only for the Designers themselves but for the players too!

Think about it, Halter! 

Pretty Please?

I wonder the same too, also it would be nice if we could see how much time there is for the objective if it is timed (Cutscene, timeouts, etc...), to allow for accurate fluid voiceovers without having to redo the dialogue again or having to open the game itself countless times.

Nope. We don't have DYOM source code, so it's impossible - unless there will be some decompiler. Try DYOM# Addon you can see objective numbers with it, it's somewhere on this forum - go search

Checked it out, thing is awesome and nearly just what I need for a voiceover, thank you!

Estoy de acuerdo con ACH_GAMES, también sería bueno si también pudiera expandir la función de la historia, como agregar funciones del archivo main.scm del juego SA original, como llamadas telefónicas entre misiones o si se cumple una condición de falla, casas seguras ( tal vez permitir casas de seguridad personalizadas con puntos de referencia personalizados que podemos crear y las casas de seguridad originales en SA, tal vez apegarse a lo último), Guardar el juego como el juego normal (permitir 8 guardados separados del juego estándar), Misiones secundarias (separado del juego historia), llevar armas, armaduras y dinero en efectivo entre misiones y coleccionables. Si esas funciones se agregaran, ampliaran y mejoraran sobre la función de historia mediocre que tenemos hoy en día en DYOM, podría ser la mejor versión que podríamos tener de la función de historia,

¡Piénsalo, Halter! 

¿Bastante por favor?

 

 

También me pregunto lo mismo, también sería bueno si pudiéramos ver cuánto tiempo hay para el objetivo si está cronometrado (escena, tiempos de espera, etc.), para permitir voces en off precisas y fluidas sin tener que rehacer el diálogo. de nuevo o tener que abrir el juego innumerables veces.

The idea is great, but it requires a lot of work. I am satisfied that they fix the problem with the SL. and by the way that they increase the limit of how many missions can be added. Since it only lets you add 20 missions for each SL.

ACH_Games is from spain, just dunno which, also, he probably uses google translate or something like that to know what we are saying and then he types his message and translates with google translate or DeepL, i guess.

It should work the same as in DYOM Remastered, without gluing you can make enemies on the train  

 

[aboy_trappedinabox]

Suggestion : animation change between objective 

(Cameras are considered as objectives so you can change actor's animation between objectives)

- an enemies system when one enemy spot you all the other should be alerted

"like maddogg's Manson mission"

Or Mission failed when they spot you

"Because is a bit awkward when only the one enemy who saw you come to fight when the other are standing still"

And sometimes the enemy even shoots you when the other's don't seems to care until you face them or get near them

- and the enemies spoting distance sometimes they don't even fight until you are a facing them directly

- And a clothing systeme for the player

Or functioning clothes pick-up "when you use it it change your clothes or your skin"

Are you planning to add storyline creator back for DYOM IX?

Impossible. Storyline is broken in DYOM IX. However in DYOM Remastered it should work, you need to try it out.

So that's it? There will be no Storyline creating whatsoever in the future in DYOM IX? Even after the mission file has gotten a lot smaller in V4.1 about 4 times?

• Reduced the size of dyom.dat files by 4 times

Because that was the mentioned reason by @darkmorgan of why the storyline creating isn't possible.

• It is no longer possible to create storylines using IX missions due to their large size

@Halter Could you please tell us anything about the storyline creating being possible to add in future updates or not?

I think the problem isn't the file size of the storyline missions, but the overall size of the main.scm code. DYOM is basically a single .SCM file that generates all those other .dat files. The game has limits on how much lines of code it can handle in a single file, and to make all the Storyline features available, it would need ton of more lines, I think that's it.

Unfortunately, everything has a price and you have to pay for such cool features. You need to understand that the code is not rubber, it works at 60 frames per second, so given the year the game was released, if we ran DYOM IX on old computers, then most likely it would crash at all

OK. I understand. Thanks for replying
