Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers - Why Do Fools Fall In Love

Get at least a 600-watter, and preferrably the most expensive that you can buy. They're usually the ones that are modular or come with a six-pin plug for a high-end video card. Oh, and yeah, case size matters; it'll be pointless to get a 560 if the video brick's too Xbox-huge for your rig.

Well I can run IV on very high shadows, but with low vehicle density and short draw distances, so I don't think that ICE can do the trick on my rig.

And so you're beginning to listen to those cranks? Not that I'm dissing you, but I don't give a damn about pseudoscientists and quacks cooking up wacky theories about pharmaceutical companies and government involvement; even if I know that the White House's a bit whacked up still I chose not to care. Why? Cause it only brings up more drama.

Actually it does the job of several utilities in one package, rather than having separate apps for opening archives and editing textures/models.

Well, at least they're making epic progress with the formats.

You're right about that. Sure, hacking websites is obviously illegal, unless if the government or some entity hires you to take down someone else's server, but the /b/tards who are responsible for the attack have a point in doing so. The greedier and more corrupted you are, the more likely that you'll end up being hammered by an angry mob.

Can you feel ze schadenfreude?

How's it going, dude?

Do you have any plugins/scripts for opening them plane models in Max? There's a tutorial at GTAF concerning vehicle conversions to SA; all you have to do is assign dummies from an existing model to the vehicle you're working on, link it to the model, making sure that the latter's chopped up and named properly after the parts from the stock SA vehicle (i.e. chassis, propeller, etc.), assign materials and a collision model to it, and export it to a readable format. The tut works for cars, but it should also apply to aircraft, too, as vehicles in SA follow similar rules concerning dummy assignment and other things.

The Mac versions of SA and other games run on Cider; there are several tutorials out there on how to tinker with Cider packages, but what you'll have to do is basically open the app's package contents (RMB or Cmd-click and then Open package contents), navigate to the game's install folder, and then paste the mod files to it). I tried doing it with an IV HUD mod on my Mac's SA install, and it did work fine without a hitch. IDK about the ragdoll mod, though, as it is known to crash on a different executable, especially since the Mac version uses the 1.1x binary.

Yep, heard of it, well, barely.

Yep, there has been a bunch of custom map conversion mods at GTAForums, with the usual III-era maps being shoved in the RAGE engine. As for the screens, it could be shooped; the IV-styled HUD looks like a giveaway as GTA5 may be significantly different from the previous game. It may not even follow the IV canon, too.

Been playing it since I was 16; my ten-year old cousin's into playing SA and/or IV, too.

Yeah, but remember that we do not in any way support illegally downloaded versions of any game, be it GTA or anything else.

Yep, it could be caused by a corrupted GTA3 archive file.

Thanks... Nice sig, btw.

Thought of whipping this up after watching Kit Kittredge: An American Girl a few weeks ago. The girl's scooter in the film seemed epic win for me, so why not make one for CJ, too? I actually based it off an item from the American Girl catalogue, as the one in the film was a little different. It wasn't really that hard to pull off - just a hundred or so polygons and a baked AO map to go along with it. Special thanks to Daniel Angeles, scarface2k_gtasa and the dudes at 667 Dark Avenue and American Girl Playthings. Here's a 3DS render of it: DOWNLOAD: http://strawberryforum.cz.cc/gtastuff/kitscooter.rar http://www.thegtaplace.com/downloads/f5857-kits-homemade-scooter

If it's a well-coordinated Zerg Rush, then the T-Rex might end up being overrun by a million kittens. But other factors may affect it, especially if the felines are swift enough not to be eaten alive.

Yeah, I was also wondering what sort of processor did they use for the NGP, and what's the clock speed for it (although it'll probably be, judging from what I observed from the Uncharted gameplay video, along the lines of at least 1 to maybe 2.5Ghz). If it's a custom core like the PS3's Cell, then that would be pretty damn expensive.
