0.2e Test Map update, water level fix (at doc's garage) and car downgrader

Recommended Posts

It has been noted that the Evilraptor HV map mod which was bundled with 0.2e can increase the chance of crashes occuring. To that end, we have made an update which will remove all portions of Evilraptors map, leaving in place only the town square, and a simple road that has been added to enable you to drive across to it.

In order to install this update, we recommend the following steps:

1) Install a fresh copy of Vice City

2) Install the main 0.2e setup file Click Here

3) Install the Hill Valley Terrain Col fix update Click Here

4) Install the updated gta-vc.exe Click Here

5) Install the latest main.scm update Click Here

6) Install the 0.2e_map_update Click Here use GTA mod installer to install

- For those who wish to manually install the map update, extract the contents of the data folder from the rar into you GTA VC directory, and use IMG Tool to add the 1955road.dff model to your gta3.img file, once added rebuild the archive.

Last update, this time around as well as the map changes it will also replace 30+ vehicles with the originals from Vice City. The rar can now be found in the download section.

If that doesn't help people, then I don't know what will :P

Edit - For people who want to try downgrading just the cars and not the map, download the rar, extract the installscript_gtavc text file, open the file, delete all the content then copy and paste the following:

Latest looks stable. Played 21 minutes in the future and only one crash during flying animations, which shouldn't be related to this.

Nice work ;)

Ah that's good, hopefully that was just a random glitch?

I didn't remove all of the extra cars, for example I left doc's packard, biff's ford, griff's bmw, martys toyota, needles ford etc in the game. Everything extra outside of that I removed.

Actually it is sort of related. The flying animations, after all, involve spawning a vehicle and objects. And what makes the mod crashy in future eras are the spawning of high-poly vehicles (the De Lorean included). But sounds like an old 0.2d crash issue, so it's good.

angelo why don't you give the update a try? You get regular crashes with the mod correct?

Actually I'm having a problem of actually starting GTA:VC itself (can't be an installation problem, 'cause the same copy works on another computer, but it really doesn't work on mine for some reason), but I'll try testing those updates.

Also, I'm asking again: are we going to have low-poly model versions of those cars we included in the mod, or are we really going to replace all of those extra cars with stock/original ones for the sake of making 0.2f stable?

As I've stated a few times (I guess you missed it?), it depends on whether the original authors will allow us to use degraded versions of their models. If not, then scratch building would be required.

To sum up, if we can get permission, low poly versions of the existing 0.2e models will be shipped with 0.2f. If we can't get permission, then the stock VC models will be used until the scratch built models are ready.

The update seems to work perfectly; I've experienced only two crashes since I installed it - both were while transforming DeLorean from driving to flying mode.

Make that 3, something went terribly wrong with Time Circuit and showed random symbols(that's not the game feature I can tell). But at least it's not crashing in Hill Valley, since it's floating in midair :lol:

~50 minutes played without crashes.

+1 to hscitpe in all things he said.

Sorry to say, but after longer playing, the crashes appear more randomly, as it did after first installing 0.2e. Don't know why, but apparently the downgrader doesn't have such a crash-killing effect on this PC. Although, it probably doesn't crash with HV anymore.

Behind the army base, there is a bridge to Hill Valley, there you will find Courthouse, theater, carlot etc. Also, someone asked this before, but I thought the HVs location was included in the Readme.. :huh:
