[REL] GTA United 1.2

[LiveLife]

Do you mean something like using the scm command "0ADF: add_dynamic_GXT_entry" while using CLEO? Otherwise I don't know what you actually want to describe. Anyway, working on the american.gxt shouldn't be a big problem, I'm just trying to get into it, now using the GXT Editor 1.3 by Hammer.

Edit 1:
Can someone please tell me, if in United 1.1 with USCM textboxes popup, when the functions "Car Colour", "Flip Car", "Weather Change" and "Remember Car" get triggered?


Edit 2:
Well. Good and bad news. Good one is, I'm sure now, that the USCM for United 1.1 didn't included the mentioned textboxes above, that I will change for the 1.2 USCM so the package is complete. Bad one is, after I looked a bit deeper in the matter it seems now that beside those missing ones mentioned no other textboxes are misssing and hence are not causing my crashes. Which brings me back again to the point not knowing what the problem actually is. Therefore .. I will continue looking out for the problem and hopefully I will be able to find it.


Edit 3:
Okay, adding the missing entries worked!  Here the new textbox of "Car Colour":



And another thing: Besides "Car Colour" and "Car Vulnerability" the function "Add NOS/Hydraulics" is working aswell.

[LiveLife]

Well, it seems that I need help of someone with experience regarding scm/cleo. If figured out some things, know more or less what the individual parts of Dannye's code are doing but after all something is conflicting with the United 1.2 script and I don't know what it is.

So these functions work:

• Car Colour
• Car Vulnerability
• Add NOS / Hydraulics
• Car Spawner 1
• Car Spawner 2

The two Spawner only work if I haven't got into a car before. Furthermore my game crashes, if I'm on foot and press either "Sprint", "Crouch" or "Change Camera", also if I try to change the weather, so combination of "Action" and "Look Behind" (using only one of those bottons does not crash my game) is crashing my game. My game crashes also every time I swim (so if I fall into the water).

First I thought missing entries in the american.gxt would cause my problems, but that wasn't the case. There were indeed 4 missing, but they weren't in the United 1.1 USCM aswell and there they did not cause a crash either. Anyway, I already added those missing 4 to my United 1.2 USCM and it's working well; but that doesn't help me with the crashes.

I then thought, well could there be some trouble because of doubleusing of global variables ($Example123)? But that isn't it either, no doubleusing.

Now I currently try to get a deeper understanding of what Dannye actually did within this code and here I get to one point I can't seem to get further. For example I try to understand how he accomplished it that the player get's a Jetpack if he presses "Change Camera" (V) while on foot. (because as mentioned, pressing "Change Camera" and therefore the Jetpack function crashes my game)

Now note two things. First the comments are made by me and not Dannye (so the //... things) .. so I do BELIEVE they comment the code the right way but there is no 100% surety. And second, don't worry that the global variables here defined in the beginning differ to the ones in the SA USCM by Dannye. Aschratt changed them for the United 1.1 USCM so it works within our 1.1 script and as mentioned, they doesn't interfere with the 1.2 script aswell. No worries there.

Anyway, when I look at that script I don't really understand how that code gives me the actuall jetpack ingame. There simply seems to be no line which would do that, or am I wrong? I know of these two commands regarding the jetpack:

Code: [Select]

07A7: put_jetpack_on_actor $PLAYER_ACTOR
0A0C: player $PLAYER_CHAR on_jetpack
But neither of them is to be found in Dannye's :ULTSCM thread. So I don't really get how it's accomplished.


Conclusion
I need help with this. If someone of you guys think he can help me and actually know one or another thing about scm, that would be great .. because I'm running out of ideas. And Dannye did not visited the forum since April aswell .. so yeah.

[VaNilla]

Dannye should get an email if you PM him, try that

[LiveLife]

How are you doing Paul?  Regarding Dannye, I might gonna do that.

Edit:
Haha oh man.  I feel a bit old now. No wonder that Dannye's Jetpack function does not include a command for a Jetpack. Because it doesn't include a Jetpack - ingame. It's only named after that. I simply forgot about that. It's more like a fast travel thing. That means the problem here is definitely the Change Camera button and not the jetpack script itself.

gtaunited.net - Launch Successful
About one and a half years after the release of GTA United 1.2, there is now something new to report: gtaunited.net launched officially today!
So now Grand Theft Auto United has its own web presence, which allows to bundle all information around the modification in a central place.
Thus the site contains, among other things, all previously published news reports, pictures, videos and downloads of GTA United and its predecessor modifications LC2SA and VC2SA.
Originally such an 'archive' was planned earlier, but due to time constraints it is only now gone online.

The future of Grand Theft Auto United
Will there be a new version of GTA United?
This question is still not answered unequivocally, interest and motivation to develop the mod further are still there, especially in light of the new developments (1, 2) in the region of limit adjusting.
So with this, the original vision of GTA United - The merging of all maps of the GTA III trilogy in the San Andreas engine – came a little step closer, even if there are still some hurdles.
If there actually a new version will be released depends like so many things, on the fact if I will find enough time to create a version that contains enough new features that make a release worthwhile.

Stay tuned...

[ATP]

Final Chapter

Due to the increasing DMCA takedowns against various GTA San Andreas map modifications, it is with a heavy heart that we must announce that we decided to preemptively take all remaining instances of GTA United, including its predecessors VC2SA and LC2SA, down.
This means that, while our team haven't received a takedown notice, we opted ourselves to say goodbye on our own conditions, and that effectively now all our official uploads are taken offline. We are sorry to all the people that enjoyed playing GTA United, many of which we had positive interactions with, but this is a step we felt was necessary, as Take Two and Rockstar Games seem to gradually reject more and more "Modding" of their games, even if it's the older ones.

We want to use this opportunity to say thanks to all the people that have helped with the creation, maintenance, hosting and support of GTA United. It has been a pleasure to work alongside such talented and dedicated people, an experience we shall never forget, and without all of you it would not have been possible to pull off.
There were so many layers to the whole project, so many little details and even small secrets hidden away, that at times it felt overwhelming to work on the project. To us, it wasn't just about merging the maps of two of our favourite games, it was about bringing them once again to life. From small missions and races, radio stations, a breathing world through working pedestrians in the streets, new load and menu screens, custom graffities and hundreds of items handplaced in the world, including our own collectables in form of United numplates. These are only a couple of the things we hoped would help people in immersing themselves once again in these iconic worlds.
Above all stands the fun we had while constructing this modification and the fun we had with people enjoying it, so once again, thanks a lot for the great time.

Ah this sucks, really shitty decision by Takes Two. Blizzard did smth similar last year to the modders, having a bad experience and losing millions to mods like Dota.
Even if they start taking down officially all the mods it will be impossible to stop people from making mods for these games. Plus, they will never be able to remove all the mods and people from the community will still have copies of the mods and share it between them.
Like... shiet, 99-100% of gtas is playing on modified versions of VC/SA (Dannye's scm, LC/SAiVC and hundreds of other mapmods etc.) and some other filthy modders add their own illegal mods like gravity, antifall, collisions, but thats another story
