Realistic Tyre Treads v1.0 by DiCanio


Surprisingly no one has ever released decent tyre 
textures for GTA. Well, here's a whole bunch to 
choose from - 20 in total! They can be used in 
both GTA3 and Vice City.


Tools you will need:
VCTXD Tool v1.1b


Instructions:
Choose the texture you want to install from the Tyre Treads
folder of this Mod and rename it to tyre64a.bmp. Open the 
Wheels.txd file with VCTXD Tool and replace the tyre64a.bmp 
texture with the one of your choice. Your Wheels.txd can be 
found in the Rockstar directory Models/Generic folder. 
Don't forget to back-up your Wheels.txd file.
Remember, when you use VCTXD Tool to cancel the screen that 
pops up after clicking the texture you want to add. The
program is actually asking if you want to add an alpha 
texture. In this case you don't want to add one - so click 
cancel.


Included in this Mod are any original files you will be
altering - just in case you forget to make a back-up
copy. Plus the usual collection of goodly screenshots.

Thanx to [eXiGe] for finding some of these textures :o)


That's All Folks!


Have Fun!

Check whither your files are Read-Only. This is a common 
problem with Vice City. Grab this wee program and let
it change your Read-Only files for you with no fuss.

Just right click on the main Vice City dir after install 
and choose Clear Read-Only Attributes.

Tip of the Week:

GTA MOD INSTALLER
For all you Modders out there - and there's quite a few! Take 
a look at cpmusicks GTA Mod Installer. Not only will it
install cars automatically in GTA3 and Vice City but it will 
also change the handling, default and carcol entries if these 
are included in the Mod! Pretty kool stuff. It will install 
other Mods too which require DFF or TXD replacement etc in the 
GTA3.img file, or indeed ANYWHERE in the Rockstar Games 
directory. It will save you quite a bit of work and anyone who
installs Mods on a regular basis will find the job easier if a 
Mod comes with an Install Script for the GTA Mod Installer. 
Grab it here: http://www.gta3hq.com/ - :o))

NEW version also backs-up any files it replaces so that you
can uninstall any Mod with ease! A good thing just got better!

Game Play Tip:
Fed up with your car disappearing as soon as you turn your 
back? Just press the Exit button along with the Run button 
and the door will be left open when you leave a vehicle. 
Your car will remain just where you left it for a long 
time. It's an old trick but well worth remembering :o)
