Switch Designs

Well the time has come for me to release my 150th GTA3 mod. This mod will replace either one, two or all three of your monster trucks in GTA San Andreas with new Monster Bullet vehicles. You can download the mod here.

Yeah I posted it as the brassknuckles because I wanted a weapon that was close to a save for modding purposes and because it's something you can easily get at any time in the game. Plus because of the way he holds the brass knuckles it looked better as those instead of a different weapon and I wanted to be able to take a preview shot that showed how close the saw looks to the original in the GTA 4 preview. If memory serves me right if you want it to replace like the knife or another weapon with it instead just rename my dff and txd to the weapon name your replacing and it should work. I just just tested it with the knife by just changing the names of my txd and dff to knifecur instead of brassknuckles and it worked ok but didn't look as good when he uses it as it does when replacing the brass knuckles.

This San Andreas mod will replace your brass knuckles with the bone saw seen in the last GTA 4 trailer "Good Lord, What Are You Doing?" aka "Everyone's A Rat". You can download it here.

In the spirit of hiding things on Easter I decided to hide the Hydra jet. This first mod will change your Hydra jet into a invisible Stealth Jet. You can download it here. The second mod will replace the cell phone that CJ answers and uses through out the game and changes it into a sweet new Apple iPhone. With GTA4 coming out soon and Niko getting a new MP3 playing, PDA style cell phone in the game, I figured CJ deserved something special so he didn't feel left out. You can download it here. HAVE A HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!

I really like this post. very good eye to whoever caught it. I like watching the trailers frame by frame too lol.

Thanks again Charger for the better image. I have updated the post with the new image and gave you credit for it. Also as a funny side note gtagaming.com used my first crappy preview picture to post the same news on their site! Ha ha sorry guys we had the news first!

YAY it's me!!! Oh and thanks to whoever reworded my post it looks much better now lol thanks. (I never was good with the actual posting of things lol) And YAY I'm on the staff page. Plus I'm pretty excited that my mods are on on every one of the sites listed, even gtagaming thanks to rappo putting up some of my stuff that I made after I left their site, which after everything I went through with them and leaving the site and taking all my mods with me I still felt bad taking off on people that I thought were my friends and I must have offered at least 50 times to give them back all my stuff and even offered to repost it all back into the database even which would have took hours and zidane just couldn't grow up enough to accept it, even went off on rappo for putting the submarine and a few other mods back up on the site. Rappo was the best! But the childish drama at that site runs wild and that's what I adore about this place the childish drama is like non existant it's great!

I do not have a larger pic unfortunitly but if anyone else has the jan 08 issue of playstation magazine and can take a bigger better picture of the article on page 55 then please email it to me at [email protected] and i'll fix the post picture and give you front page reconigition for sending it to me.

www.gta4.net, www.gtagaming.com, and planetgrandtheftauto.gamespy.com/gta4/ were the other three sites listed.

I just got the new Official PlayStation Magazine for the month of January 2008, and noticed that on page 55 there’s an article on GTA IV that lists TheGTAPlace.com as one of the leading places for new GTA IV info! This is great news for such a great site that I'm proud to call home. I added a poor picture of the article from my RAZR cell phone camera seeing as I don't have a scanner at the moment, I just think that it’s just so cool that we were listed and recognized as a leading site for news on such an amazing game, and that we have even better GTA info than even OPM itself! After seeing a company like Sony admitting to something like that, I just had to post something to point it out! I also added the picture just so you could all see if for yourselves. By the way I wanted to say I know that I have not been around much lately but with work, family and friends it's been hard finding the time to make a new mod. I am planning on making something new very soon. Thanks to Charger from our very own forums we now have a better image of the article that can be seen here!

I was going to bed this morning after 1am pst and I turned on the tv and this was on FX O.o This is history folks remember it, live it, love it....... GTA 4 will rule and i'll be there to mod it and make it better W00t!!!! Rockstar forever........

Rotflmfao ..... Odd? What's so odd about it, it's a bike and a really sweet one at that. Thanks for the compliment. However I won't be writeing any tutorials for modeling but there are tons of great ones out on the internet. Here is some basic stuff: http://forum.zmodeler2.com/viewtopic.php?t=828 this one explanes how things work and has basic instructions: http://www.zmodeler2.com/docs/program/less...s/contents.html this one has advanced instruction: http://www.zmodeler2.com/docs/program/less...dvcontents.html and this one explanes all about uv mapping: http://www.zmodeler2.com/docs/program/tuto...ping/index.html as you can all see I use a registered version of zmodeler2 and only had to pay 35$ back when it first came out instead of the 53$ that it costs now plus I still use the old free version of zmodeler too and convert to new z3d format for export to SA dff format.

I did not attempt to replace the mountain bike but I did try to replace the regular bike and no matter what I did I could only get the brownish color that was on the original bike model on my model, however it works great as the bmx changes colors is fun to do the first mission with and jumps pretty good too plus it can wheelie for days

This GTA San Andreas mod will turn your bmx bike into a new lowrider bike. It features colored by carcol file textures that can be changed to what ever color you want by just editing the carcol text file. This mod can also replace the bike instead of the bmx by just changing the names of the dff and txd to bike instead of bmx but the bike in San Andreas unlike the bmx is not carcol color controled and no matter what I did I could not get the original bike or my lowrider to change colors in game. I'm starting to think that the bike vehicle in GTA is hardcoded to one color because changing it's carcol entry does nothing, so that is why I had it replace the bmx instead so we could all have different colors. The seat and grips are secondary carcol colored and the frame is primary carcol color. You can download the mod here. I have also added a few in game preview images as well Preview1, Preview2, Preview3 and you can purchase the model for use in other applications here.

Yeah it's a only model replacement, however I have always felt that anyone can make a normal car mod but that it takes someone special to create a recliner that you can cruse around on... Lmao...

Some times I just can't relax enough while playing GTA San Andreas, so I made a mod to help out with that just a bit. This mod will replace your Go Kart in GTA San Andreas with a La Z Boy Recliner. You can download the La Z Boy Recliner mod here. I also have added 2 rendered preview shots of the recliner out of game. Preview1 Preview2 You can also purchase the model for use in other applications here. And check out the GTAforums post for the mod here.

Yes it will work with any pc version of GTA San Andreas!

Yeah sorry about any spelling mistakes I made, I like to mod when i'm drunk lmao and I just found a way to model while i'm at work so you all might see few more mods from me but life is super busy so we'll see.

Yeah no meat on his bones I started a new game to test the mod and just took the screens as is but if you or anyone else can take a better shot of the maul in action I personally would love to see it.... My screen was lacking but it's been a while and i'm still a bit rusty. Also check out the post I made at the gta forums here.

Well it's been a while since I have made any mods for GTA and lately I have not been too sure that there would ever be any more. I have been working as tech support for a major car and home audio company, playing a lot of Runescape, FFXI online and I also like messing around in Second Life as well as everyday family life with my wife and my 2 kids. Even with all these things that tend to come before my modding and modelling I still think about you all everyday. So finally I have put away a little time and made all of you a nice little mod that I like to call The Granite Maul. The idea for the granite maul came from Runescape and the lame model of an ugly granite maul which is in that game. I decided that since I could not modify the one in Runescape to make it better that I would just make one from scratch for San Andreas. To all the staff at TGTAP and to fans all over the world sorry for just disappearing. This mod will replace your bat in GTA San Andreas with a Granite Maul. Download the mod here. Here is also a better 3ds rendered picture of the gmaul This version of the model can be purchased from here for use in other applications. I can't sell my mods but my models are fair game.

I have told so many people since the day Vice City was created that Liberty City, Vice City and San Andreas are all GTA 3 and that all of the img files for all three games are called gta3.img because they all are run on the gta3 engine. Now that Rockstar has announced that the next GTA will be called GTA4 I'm sure we can all be looking forward to a whole new engine and img file name. All I have to say it HA!

This San Andreas Mod will change your Katana into Clouds Old Sword from the movie Final Fantasy VII Advent Children. I also wanted to tell everyone that I am sorry about the lack of mods from me lately, with all my real life stuff and the huge amount of FFXI online that I play I have not had much time for GTA modding. Download the mod here. I've also made a cool wallpaper from the mod image and you can get that here.

I LOVE IT! IT'S SOOOO BEAUTIFUL.... ONE MILLION COOKIES TO YOU! I'M PROUD TO BE PART OF SUCH AN AWESOME FAN SITE!

LOL I never thought of it like that I guess I was just luckey enough to find the woman That I'd spend the rest of my life with early in life. AND YES SHE IS CRAZY HOT LMFAO... Would you expect anything less ^.^
