Thanks
I'm still quite hungover from last night. I've been lying on the sofa in our studio half this morning. -
Haha that website is a fucking joke. They actually have a theory for something already proven otherwise, wtf is up with that? So yeah this is one forum that deserves shit. Hate ignorant people.
??? The earh is flat.

Vice City, all round best music.

It's conjecture as to what Spaz was talking about. You're guessing as to what he was reffering to, there's no evidence.

Well there's usually like a maximum of 10 on at once I've seen. Which is usually a few TGTAP members I recognise and I guess just random people.
That's just from the game-monitor thing though, I rarely actually go in-game.
Will have to look at your server when I get SA back. When I was scripting for SA-MP I got about 70 people on my server every day, but I did spend ages on the script for it.

Why is the motorway scared of the tarmac?
Because it's a cyclepath...
There's a better version of that joke I've heard which is done as a "two bits of tarmac walk into a pub" joke.

Publishers like safe bets, if something worked once it stands more chance in their eyes of working again rather than something risky and untried. When they're sinking an 8 figure sum of money into a game they want to ensure it makes a decent return. I wouldn't say it's ironic, because it's fully intentional. It's essentially a glorified port, a revisiting to a game which was rushed and experimental to try and polish it a little.
In terms of both Claude and Toni being Italians, the games revolve around the Italian Mafia - it's a bit of a given that the main character will probably be Italian if he wants to be integrated easily into different Mafia groups.

TXD files consist of two textures. The first is the RGB (red, green, blue) channel, this holds a fully opaque texture and is where the patterns or decals or whatever are stored. The second is an alpha (transparency) channel, this basically relies on greyscale, with white representing fully visible, and black representing invisible, and grey in between.
RGB Example:
Alpha Example:
Merged Example (where checkerboard background represents invisibility):
You can either use a Bitmap for each of these channels, or use a PNG (which is very similar to a BMP only with a transparency channel). When you import the PNG it cleverly splits up the image into the RGB colour bitmap and the Alpha transparency bitmap.
If you're getting an error from Photoshops export of the alpha channel, try exporting the alpha channel from TXD Workshop then loading it in MSPaint. I'd imagine the texture is just pure white? In which case you only need use the paint bucket to fill it grey, then save and import back into TXD Workshop.

Can't stop human nature, at the end of the day with power - financial or otherwise - comes an ability to use it in unethical ways for selfish gain at the loss of everyone else.

Why, how many do you normally get?

Yeah it's freaky stuff MetalInusan, did you know that gta 3 is set in liberty city and so's lcs? Coincidence???
-
Oh my f***ing god! Have you played the game called Liberty City Stories!?
Yeah Husky, it was released over 3 years ago. Not mr current affairs?

A van of tortoises crashes into a van of terapins. It was a turtle disaster.
Edit: sorry didn't realise it had to be a good joke!

Is my link the wrong thing then?
-
The above repliers are correct. We don't pin topics because you ask. In fact, it's likely to STOP us pinning your topic, since you've made it for the wrong reasons. Just like, as a rule, we never promote anyone who asks to be staff.
Can I has staff plz?
Generally a pinned topic needs demand, if say there were thousands of posts on the subject of Vista x64 then yes a topic which could be pinned would come in handy, or even a sub forum. However as Mr G says making a topic on the off chance will earn you no favours.

Screenshot?

If you head over to gtaforums.com they have excellent listings on how to do GTA modding, it shouldn't be too hard to make what you describe following their tutorials. Plus you'll discover how to do a whole range of things with the game. Unfortunately I don't think tgtap has a very big modder community, but someone may help you out

I'm not familliar with PlayStation 3s or any of this save system lark, but on this link there's two entries under "PlayStation 2 PS3 Virtual Memory Card Save (ZIP) (Europe)". I suspect as you've said you've already checked gamefaqs that I've misinterpreted what the listed entries are, but I thought I'd post on the off chance.

is CS3 faster than CS2?
-
Barbie Princess Island 3: Pony Village
Will look good with a R* logo
-
But will CS4 run faster? My laptop handles CS2 just about, and I don't know of any features in CS3 or 4 that I need, but if it'll run smoother I'll upgrade. Also, Vista is in no way superior to XP.
-
What about CS2?
-
I have one and im not a vigin..Im a college graduate and I get bored after work...my girlfriend is in Paris for the weekend.
Can a mod please change this topic to a poll, to see if people actually believe this is true?

I injected Ivan with a new enthusiasm for life and an eagerness to partake in inane and pointless topics.
Help I've just been eaten by a cat!
Rebuild TGTAP

It's been a long while since GTA IV came out, I'm guessing the whole GTA scene must be going through the same issues. It won't be long till the next console GTA game, when that turns up it'll be important to get going with it full throttle. Aggressive coverage and some unique content. Back in the day I did a few issues of that GTA IV magazine and got some solid attention for it, building up a community from nothing. Something like that could be a way of making TGTAP stand out from the large number of reasonably similar fansites. Nice and easy to do in software like InDesign, probably wouldn't be very achievable in a weekly format and a monthly format might be too long, so bimonthly could work.
