Huckleberry Pie Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 (edited) Okay, some HAS to gut SA & make a conversion. We could build this as a TGTAP exclusive w/ members contributing toa final version to put in the Download section. I'll help out where I can. Combine some of these, and elements from other cities, and you'll end up with a GTA: SA total conversion... Like what the guys at ReactOS.org did to their project; reverse-engineering Windows 2000/XP just to make their own Windows clone. Maybe we should slap a GPL open-source license in that mod, but the Strawberryland idea might be too dorky for some people. There should be two versions, the Strawberryland joke and a more hardcore version - maybe Manila, Philippines or any other major city can be the basis; although it's hard to make a near-carbon copy of Manila, you might take some details from it, like the Baywalk and mix elements from other cities to make a total GTA conversion... Urbanoutlaw made me start this modding project, after his responses to my GTA: Strawberryland parody, which is more of like a half-baked idea than a game (or maybe not). Me and Urbanoutlaw are looking for contributors for this total conversion project, turning San Andreas into a different GTA game. We're looking for map modders, guys who can make 3D stuff, graphics artists, and people who can manage the donations and financial stuff (whenever possible). I'll take care of some of the GUI tasks, official webpage and misc. I'm also considering making this an open-source project, under the GNU General Public License v2.0, and making a Sourceforge.net project site...

Urbanoutlaw Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 I can do some script mods, placing vehicles & weapons & have figured out how to set when they spawn if mission related. Have also done minor .TXD edits, exported them from GTA3.IMG & pulled the texture maps. Have also found dance score, initial money & dealer cash in GTASA. For data files, have good luck w/ HANDLING.CFG, CARCOLS.DAT, CARGRP.DAT & others. AW NUTS, I just got a job, didn't I. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huckleberry Pie Posted June 9, 2007 Author Share Posted June 9, 2007 Right now I'm about to make a Sourceforge project page for this mod; we'll put all the binary stuff (installer) and some source files in case you guys want to make a mod, too... I'll tell you if the site's up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huckleberry Pie Posted June 13, 2007 Author Share Posted June 13, 2007 OK, boys, we'll finally stick to making this mod work. This pic below will be the basis (whenever possible) for our island: I'll take pictures of buildings for textures and the GUI stuff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huckleberry Pie Posted June 13, 2007 Author Share Posted June 13, 2007 This is actually the map that we'll work on, not the other map that I posted, since I found that was bigger than the San Andreas field... We might as well take cars from download archives, too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urbanoutlaw Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 (edited) Whad'dup. Any luck finding the Pajero (Dadge Raider/Mitsu Montero) you were asking about earlier? Edited June 21, 2007 by Urbanoutlaw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huckleberry Pie Posted June 21, 2007 Author Share Posted June 21, 2007 (edited) I got a Pajero on my "looking for A CAR v2." thread... It's OK, though I actually needed a two-door 88-91 model. Besides, GTA Manila is set in 2007, right? And how's the map today?? Edited June 21, 2007 by Huckleberry Pie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huckleberry Pie Posted June 24, 2007 Author Share Posted June 24, 2007 what cars do you want? A mix of mods and default cars. The alpha version of this mod doesn't change the radio stations, until we find a way to change the audio adverts into Philippine-style ones; the DJs there were rather corny and ridiculous... local radio stations, i know most of them are 'corny' or whatever you want to say about them but hell, driving wont feel very local if youre not listening to stupid jokes. or jeeps with booming sounds! and we need a gang with emo kids or kids wearing black shirts, eyeliners and the likes. hahaha. ...but it won't be the same ol' city without those zany DJs...
