III bat, III Remington pump action in VC/Stories level of detail, tweaked LCS cutscene Colt (since III also had a Colt).

Are you guys using Toni's hands for Claude's ones? That skin tone kinda sticks out (not to mention Toni being orange-skinned in LCS is awkward enough already).

Let's just hope the folks on this mod manage to dish out the final version before the suits at T2 randomly get the sitting-in-the-bathroom thought of another cheap demaster.

Time for another fun update.

Imo, but Kenshi suit color looks kinda cartoonish, maybe need less saturated?

Triad memeber #2, maybe need make a differents arms tatoo? It's looks good, but strange see a same tatto on both arms.

Actually some good points, we'll see to it to make Kenji's suit a bit darker perhaps.
As for the Triad tattoo, fair enough, gotta find or make another for the other arm, indeed!

 

Meanwhile...

Playerx (intro Claude) in his '92 style and without a 5 o'clock shadow, lighter eyebags and no sideburns.

Don Salvatore's Called a Meeting

[BlackStallionDX]

Whats about that stuffs?

Spoiler

I know, this variation of Sal never been exist in any alpha\beta renders, by the way still used as his official art, so, maybe make optional skin for him?

 

8ball, you know what i wanna ask bout him.

 

And those...

Triad

Maybe hoodz or yardie

and Leones

 

[Sergiu]

Sal variant of that won't happen, sorry.

As for 8Ball, he'll appear during the story once in prison clothes, in his artwork hoodie in Give Me Liberty and in his III outfit in Bomb Da Base.

Artwork Triads will appear in Triads and Tribulations as 'warlords', artwork Leones will appear in Triads and Tribulations and in Sayonara Salvatore, artwork Yardies will appear in Uzi Rider.

About Sal, Kalvin tried making a head texture without the mustache and he looked cursed. It ain't happening, but the suit itself is inspired by the artwork a bit!

KAAAAALVIN!!!! Now just how tf did he manage to break Sal's mustache?

 

...Interesting, how about a look?

Ironically, there's also this line in LCS:

Nah, I think the suit color gels pretty well as it is, just give it a slightly velvet-looking vibe of some sort.

I worked on a thing a little while back where I had this same issue, ended up editing the model to make the face shape make sense sans stache... probably not really in line with the intention of this mod though (and doesn't make much sense that he'd shave it anyway).

Spoiler

 

Regardless, this project looks great so far, one of the few mods I'm actively keeping tabs on.

@Sergiu mang, do you guys plan to make changes to the radio stations?

 

IMO the only changes GTA3's radio stations need is audio clarity (something like what @DoctorMike's audio project does) so they're in line with the rest of the 3D-era GTA games' radio quality. The radio is really noisy, honestly.

 

Maybe also complete the licensed albums (e.g: Scarface OST, Moving Shadow X album, that Scientist album on K-JAH etc.) on some stations by adding in the missing tracks as additional ones? IDK, just an idea...

We'll use the GTA3D radios minus MSX FM, pretty much the same but with some additions.

Great Progress so far. Glad to see some great traction.

Finally somebody bothered to change the design of the characters to be more akin to their artwork!

Artwork Donald Love

Nice, but I think that LCS-style look you guys used here kinda killed that "serious business guy" vibe he had going on in GTA3, he doesn't look as ominous as he was in vanilla. Not to mention his looks in LCS (and VC) always gave out that "fine British gentleman" vibe and never seemed like his GTA3 self at all.

 

Still, good model. It's a'ight, it's all good.

This one is great. Leon looks much better and not like some regular Saint Mark's resident, he kinda resembles Francis McReary from IV here so that's cool.

Artwork Leone

Artwork Yardie

Is the Artwork Leone model in very early stages or what? Don't mind me, but I gotta be honest: He looks like that generic, Duke Nukem-esque enemy seen in the trailers for the prototype versions of Max Payne.

 

Also, isn't that Artwork Yardie supposed to be King Courtney? IIRC GTA Advance also used the Artwork Yardie sprite as King Courtney's face.

 

 

 

All in all, regardless of whatever I said above, you guys are doing a hellfire-lit job. Keep it up! Looking forward to Artwork Yakuza in 3D next.

[Sergiu]

You should see DL ingame... @H-G

 

He looks more like a psychopath than even his III model.  

 

As for artwork Leone, he's based on a LCS ped, mod_man and a edited head of Paulie Sindacco.

 

Yardies? That artwork was never supposed to be King Courtney, just a generic Yardie artwork. His GTA Advance one is supposed to be him, which looks different.

Aw shoot, I just looked up King Courtney's GTA Advance look. Oh well...

[The BHD]

Donald Love's facial features and expressions are just perfect. So far I like all of these models a lot more than the originals.

Leone artwork based character looks good, but i ever thinking, he wearning long coat, not a jacket.

[susah_banget]

This will be amazing project

[Ricky_Retriever]

Appreciate the feedback. I analyzed the artwork multiple times and also compared it to Ray Machowski and Mike lips forelli artwork and to my view (unless we get a full body piece) it looks like a suit jacket. I understand that they don't look 100% like the artwork characters. Mainly we tried to make it as faithful as we could. I hope this comment doesn't come off as a bad one. I'm new to the forums & I don't know how to reply XD

Man, McAffrey aged a lot in three years.

Several updates to the OP.  

 

Keep checking from time to time, we'll change the pictures over time to be more up to date.

Portland safehouse (Eddie's)

 

Look: crammed, industrial, ran down, garage, table inspired by Taxi Driver.
Have fun finding all the references or details we've added such as the photo stabbed with a knife like in the GTA 2 movie or the pager.

@Sergiu - What a wonderful time to be alive, bro. Excellent updates! I don't even have the words to explain them...

 

Spoiler

FUKKEN LIT!!!

 

EDIT:

 

Just a little nitpick: Shouldn't the mod be called "Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City '01" instead of "Grand Theft Auto Liberty City '01"? Not that there's something wrong with it, but the lack of the ":" right after the "o" of the "Auto" kinda bugs me.

We call it LC01 anyway, so it's not an issue
