Welcome to Vice City!

This mod is an attempt to recreate Vice City, based on the modern cities of Miami, Miami Beach, Sunny Isles and surrounding areas.

The mod was inspired by such cultural phenomena as Miami Vice, Scarfaсe, Driv3r and Grand Theft Auto Vice City, of course, and other.

 

This is my vision of this place and its surroundings, done in a low polygon style. In the process of creating a map and environment, photographs of real streets and buildings, as well as satellite images, are actively used.

It is important to understand that this is not an exact copy of a real place, but it is quite close to the real one, incl. and in scale, because I try to preserve the sizes and proportions of real objects.

 

It was decided to start from a famous place - the street Ocean Drive, filled with numerous beautiful hotels and buildings in the Art Deco style, with its view of the beach and ocean views.

Like Rockstar, I try to avoid using real names (so you won't see real names in the game, but improvised substitutes), and stick to a parody style.

 

Each model is carefully processed, textures are created and adjusted, prelight, collision are also subject to optimization for better performance.

The property of shading of objects located on the corresponding collision triangles is used. Each created model receives additional models of night lights, as well as LODs with a reduced level of detail.

In my developments, I will try to adhere to the original lore of grand theft auto and the original vice city in particular, so that iconic places are present on my map (for example, the Malibu club, pole position, starfish island and all others).

 

Unfortunately, performing this task is an extremely labor-intensive process, and takes a lot of effort and time, and therefore development is quite slow.

In the future, as I progress, I plan to master technologies such as pedestrian and vehicle paths, as well as cull and occlusion zones.

In this thread, I will try to display the development progress. In addition, it is extremely likely that we will see this place in GTA 6.

I found this thread by accident when I was looking for information about the Van Ness Hotel for my latest investigation into information about the source material that Rockstar photographed in Miami. And this is probably the best thing I've seen in the last few years. The author definitely has talent and does decent things. Very good detail. Excellent authenticity to real architectural units.
