  1. Hello MTA players, I realised that I had to create this post because I got a lot of feedback, I stopped all my activities in MTA and I don't play MTA anymore because I had to make some changes in my life and change my life direction, I saw MTA in 2010 and I started playing, during this time I made very good friends, developers and players, so I would like to thank you all endlessly, 3 months ago I stopped all my activities in MTA, but I was still receiving a lot of message requests (for paid development or other issues) after that I gave everyone goodwill feedback, but I had to stop this because I was receiving a lot of messages from MTA servers and players, Anyway I have to say that I will miss all MTA players and developers, I will visit from time to time but I won't have much time for that, for some players who will try to contact me I have to say that I don't have a discord server and I don't answer private messages, I think you will be understanding and thanks for that... I have reached the end of my career in MTA. I have worked voluntarily on many servers and participated in numerous projects. I have sold all the projects I worked on, both paid and free, and I would like to announce that I will no longer be continuing my projects. I had a great time on many servers, and for that, I want to express my gratitude. Finally, I am deeply grateful to the valuable members of the MTA team, as they have helped me in many ways. Some of them include @Sarrum, @Vinyard, @Citizen, @IIYAMA, @AlexTMjugador, and myonlake (Patrik). I will miss you, guys!

  2. Hey MTA community! I’m excited to release the latest version of the In-Game Lua Editor for MTA:SA, now with even more powerful features to enhance your development experience directly inside the game. What’s New in v3.0: Create Resources directly in the editor, with the ability to choose the folder (e.g., [ADMIN], [GAMEMODES]) for resource creation. Rename and Relocate Resources in one action, making resource management easier. Delete Resources with a confirmation dialog to avoid accidental deletions. Create and Edit HTML Files alongside Lua files, allowing you to handle both HTML and Lua resources directly in the game. Base Path System to restrict developers to specific folders, making it perfect for team organization and isolating workspaces. Function Blacklist: Automatically block dangerous functions like loadstring, setAccountPassword, removeAccount, and others for added security. In-Panel Notifications to give real-time feedback for every action performed in the editor. Security Enhancements: Full ACL Permission System to control access and operations. Activity Logs with SQLite tracking every create, edit, delete, and rename operation. Path Protection and additional security measures to prevent risky operations. Video Demo: Watch on YouTube Download: Download the Resource Here GitHub Repository: Visit the GitHub Repository How it Works: The In-Game Lua Editor allows you to browse, create, edit, and delete Lua and HTML files all in real-time directly inside MTA:SA. No need for external editors or FTP uploads, and no server restarts required. Installation Instructions: Download the resource and add it to your server. Grant "Admin" ACL permissions to the resource. Edit the permissionACL variable in editorS.lua with your admin group. Use the /editor command in-game to open the editor. Let me know your thoughts and feedback! This tool has saved me countless hours, and I hope it helps improve your development process as well. More updates and contributions coming soon!

  3. Tired of San Andreas water that looks like someone spilled green paint and called it “good enough”? Meet this shader: water so realistic, you'll forget you're in a 22 year old game. Enjoy ripples, reflections, and surface waves that almost make you wish GTA had fishing. Boats finally look like they’re actually in the water not floating on radioactive soup. Best part? It’s fully customizable tweak the look, the color, the movement, or make the water as cursed as you want. Plus, it’s at least kind of optimized to run smoothly on hopefully most rigs, so you won’t need a NASA PC to enjoy the water. Just install it, and watch your players get distracted and drive off a pier. https://community.multitheftauto.com/index.php?p=resources&s=details&id=19007

  4. MTA UI Editor is a project created with the goal of making interface creation for Multi Theft Auto (MTA) much easier and more accessible. The editor provides a dedicated visual application for building interface windows for MTA, supporting both DxDraw-based interfaces and MTA’s native UI system. With it, you can visually design your interfaces and export them already prepared for direct use in your MTA resources, saving a significant amount of development time. This is the first version of the project, so some configurations may still be inconsistent or incomplete. If you encounter any issues, unexpected behavior, or have suggestions for improvements, please open an issue on the project’s GitHub repository. Feedback from the community is extremely important to help improve the tool. Requirements Windows .NET Framework 4.7.2 Open Source The source code is completely open and free. Anyone is welcome to modify it, improve it, or contribute to the project in any way. Download: https://github.com/was547/MTAUIEditor/releases Official Repository: https://github.com/was547/MTAUIEditor Picture: https://ibb.co/LXYgXdqV I don't know if I have published in the right place on the forum, sorry if this is the wrong category for this kind of resource, greetings!

  7. Sphene is now officially open source! https://github.com/sphene/sphene-mta Excited to work with all of you, to turn this highly experimental pile of trash into something beautiful! Remember, Sphene historically has been very experimental. Many different approaches were tried and researched and that has left a lot of experimental, legacy and unfinished code. It's not the most glamorous, but we're still proud of it! Together we'll refactor the legacy code, we'll finish the unfinished pieces and we'll work through all the large problems that are ahead of us. Repository wiki will be filled with information, and lists (current states of each mission, etc) in the coming days. REMEMBER! Sphene is NOT production ready. We will only help those who want to contribute to our development with setting up their local development versions.

  8. Hello all. The holiday season is finally here, and we have prepared a more compact summary post for you than usual. Please read on to see, what we have been up to lately. GTA VI The upcoming year will bring us the next game from the Grand Theft Auto series - GTA VI. Planned to launch in Fall 2025 on consoles, it will likely arrive on PC as well, just some months later. The second trailer for GTA VI is also rumoured to be shown soon, with some elaborate fan theories backing these rumours. Will the game be good? Only the time will tell, but looking back, there was not a major GTA game release from Rockstar Games that was bad (for the sake of this argument, let's consider the Trilogy as a minor release ). That alone makes it worth to look forward to it, and it will be also nice to re-visit Vice City similar to how we did it with Liberty City and San Andreas. MTA Status and Updates Not much to report in regards of MTA - we have been focusing on improving various parts of our infrastructure, which is not immediately visible at first glance. Still, since there are many areas that need the attention, there is a lot of work involved. Thankfully, CiBeR, Botder, Lopsi, Dutchman and others have been looking into it. Thanks to the hard work done by our Helper - FileEX, we have also refreshed the Lua syntax highlighting system on our Wiki. For a long time it was unmaintained, causing many of the recent MTA scripting functions and events to be not correctly highlighted in the code snippet examples on the wiki. This has changed though, and it should be working much better now. We have been also tinkering with our #MTASpotlights hashtag on X / Twitter. We are still exploring this idea, but nonetheless, thank you for your submissions so far. If you would like to share some media that we could promote, you can do so on our Discord, just please make sure to read the guidelines beforehand. And, naturally, there have been additions to the mod's source code now and then, bringing in new scripting functions and bugfixes. Similarly, we have been pushing those as client updates for you, also now and then. Player Counts and Other Statistics Type Amount of players Date / Time Recent peak number of concurrent unique players 24,808 players 2024.12.22 (at 18.13 GMT) Highest recorded number of concurrent unique players 52,098 players 2020.04.02 (at 18.00 GMT) Recent number of daily unique players 95,445 players 2024.12.15 (Sunday) Highest recorded number of daily unique players 185,818 players 2018.02.03 (Saturday) Recent number of monthly unique players 478,736 players September, 2024 Highest recorded number of monthly unique players 805,903 players January, 2018 For a mod for a game that is nearly 20 years old now, these are fairly good numbers. Smaller than last year, but still impressive. We are glad that you are still with us. MTA:SA version or series Percentage of players using that version or series as of 24th of December, 2024 1.6.0 99.5% 1.5.9 0.4% <1.5.9 0.1% Also, as of 24th of December, 2024: there are over 90,000 members on our Discord server, we have got 13,790 followers on X/Twitter, 58,000 users follow our Facebook fanpage , and our Steam Community group has nearly 50,000 members. --- To end this post on a high note, we would like to take this moment to wish you all Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year. Enjoy the Season and take care. -MTA Team

  9. I am working with Cursor. Which is a fork of Visual Studio Code modified with AI in mind. It is my daily driver. The free version should give you enough monthly requests to finish your script. An no this is not a stupid AI, it is a optimised version for coding after all. You can even choose which AI you want to use, but some advanced may be behind a paywall.

  11. MTA:SA - Claire Anticheat Claire is a modular, lightweight anticheat resource for MTA:SA, designed to improve the integrity and fairness of servers. Its core philosophy is simple: organize detections into clean, independent modules, make them easy to configure, and build an open platform that others can expand and improve. Claire runs silently in the background, acting as a guardian layer — constantly monitoring player behavior, network conditions, and client-side integrity without interfering with gameplay or degrading performance. Its design favors discretion and precision, targeting cheats without disrupting legitimate users. If you're looking for a solid, customizable way to secure your MTA:SA server, try out Claire. Why does it matter? By being fully open-source, Claire gives server owners an accessible and transparent tool to detect common exploits and improve their server environment. But more than that, it invites collaboration. The idea is that, together — through testing, feedback, improvements, and shared knowledge — we can create a more solid, trustworthy anticheat resource that benefits the entire MTA community. Current features Claire currently includes over 20 independent detection modules, covering movement, combat, environment manipulation, network spoofing, and more. All detections are modular, configurable, and designed to operate silently in the background with minimal performance impact. False positives are rare thanks to tolerance-based logic, score systems, and heuristic analysis. Overall reliability across all modules is expected to be around 95%, all features are listed at our GitHub page. Contributing Claire is an open-source project — contributions are welcome! Feel free to contribute with PRs, reports, or suggestions at our GitHub page. You can also reach out to us on Discord. Download Download from MTA Community: latest release - 1.1.5 from 2025/04/22 Download from GitHub: latest release - 1.1.5 from 2025/04/22 Please check our GitHub page before downloading it, I'm open for suggestions.

  13. It is indeed a kind of attack. It means that the player is able execute clientside-code on demand. The attacker is triggering 'known generic events' which might be handled by the server. The ones that are unknown are in your logs, the ones that are known and trigger able are not. But that does not mean that the ones that did trigger didn't cause unwanted results. You might want to consider to restart the resources, just to make sure there is no memory leak. The event which AngelAlpha mentioned can indeed help with detecting that kind of attacks. As an extend you can also add a honeypot, which in this case are 'unkown' events for your server but know for other servers. When a player uses this kind of attack again, you can ban them automatic. You might want take a closer look at your logs for candidates (for example money related). There is also this event: https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/OnPlayerTriggerEventThreshold But be careful with automating things, always test these kind of stuff or you might accidentally nuke your own player base.

  14. Not sure what kind of backend you use. But here is an npm packets that could be used for inspiration. Probably some dependencies are deprecated. https://github.com/4O4/node-mtasa/tree/master The authOptions: https://github.com/4O4/node-mtasa/blob/aeac8ab9417a7b6a65f117491d1e648a6ad62422/src/client.ts#L107C17-L107C28 Using it in request: https://github.com/4O4/node-mtasa/blob/aeac8ab9417a7b6a65f117491d1e648a6ad62422/src/client.ts#L62 But under the hood (in JS) it is something like this: const credentials = `${username}:${password}`; const encodedCredentials = Buffer.from(credentials).toString('base64'); const result = "Authorization: Basic " + encodedCredentials The header is: Authorization The value is something like: Basic bWlqblVzZXI6Z2VoZWltV2FjaHR3b29yZA==

  15. It should be for security concerns. You wouldn't want to visit a site that is designed to look for 'new functions' and starts call them. If you take a look at this page: https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Meta.xml You can see that it is possible to call an export function over http What syntax do you need for calling an export function? http://<your IP>:<your port>/<resource_name>/call/<exported_function_name> https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Resource_Web_Access How does authentication works? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication#Client_side A 'basic' authentication should the way to go. It requires login credentials of an MTA user account with the correct permissions. This has to be passed every request. When you connect through the browser: http://127.0.0.1:22005/resourcebrowser/ You more or less understand what to expect. There is also a section about 'Router', which is new. Might be useful. https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Resource_Web_Access#Router For inspiration https://community.multitheftauto.com/index.php?p=resources&s=details&id=18781 This resource is about fetching data from MTA to a (remote) host. This is the opposite of what you are trying to achieve, but probably still useful. Fetching from MTA to remote host Creating a MTA user (installation_s.lua) that only has the correct permissions.

  16. I’m getting the “AC#4 Malicious activity” error when I try to join the server. I’ve already reinstalled Windows, but it didn’t fix anything. The Windows antivirus isn’t running, and stuff like Steam and Discord aren’t working either. Any idea what’s going on?

  17. Die Daten Discord: https://discord.gg/D5BP9Bteeq MTA: mtasa://141.95.27.131:22003 Hallo zusammen und herzlich willkommen zur Servervorstellung von dem TerraTex Reallife Community-Projekt! TerraTex bietet allen begeisterten MTA-Spielern eine volle Packung Spielspaß. Der Server läuft auf dem open source (GitHub) TerraTex-Reallife reloadet Script von Geramy92, wird aber nun von Johann und GeRmAn als Projekt aus der Community weitergeleitet. Nun wollen wir gemeinsam die alten Zeiten wieder aufleben lassen, um wieder eine kleine Community zu werden. Was bietet dir der TerraTex-Reallife Server ? Wir bieten dir einen sehr Einsteiger freundlichen Server auf dem du bis zu 25 Stunden lang einen Bonus bekommst wenn du Ehrgeizig jobbst, somit wird es dir leicht fallen am Anfang ein kleines Vermögen aufzubauen. Trucker ? oder doch lieber Pilot ? Zu Land, zu Luft, und zu Wasser sind viele verschiedene Jobs vertreten. Autohäuser von Billig bis Luxuriös sind ebenso stark vertreten wie die Anzahl der vielen Häuser auf dem Server. Für langfristige Motivation ist auch gesorgt, mit einem Business zusätzliches Geld verdienen oder doch lieber ein Prestige (Sehenswürdigkeit) erwerben und diese dann kontinuierlich zu verbessern um somit seinen höheren stündlichen PayDay zu erhalten. Zudem bieten wir dir viele Fraktionen die unterschiedlicher nicht sein können. Staatsfraktionen wie dem San Andreas Police Department, sowie der National Academy of Millitary Education und dem Sondereinsatzkommando könnten genau das richtige für dich sein, wenn du es vorsiehst in einer der guten Fraktionen tätig zu werden. Für die, die Action suchen bieten wir Gangs und Mafien, welche Schutzgeld eintreiben und gegenseitig um verschiedene Läden kämpfen (Gang Fights). Außerdem sind auch koordinierte Angriffe auf die Rivalisierenden Basen möglich um somit Materialien und Drogen zu stehlen. Grenzübernahmen, Waffentrucks und auch Geiselnahmen sind Teil der bösen Fraktionen. Natürlich können auch Neutrale Fraktionen beigetreten werden. Wenn du es etwas ruhiger magst, ist die Medic- und Taxifraktion deine Anlaufstelle. Es sei denn du möchtest die User auf dem laufendem halten: Wetterberichte, Interviews und Events sind deine Welt? Als Newsreporter bist du dafür verantwortlich die Bürger von San Andreas immer auf dem neusten Stand halten und diese vor möglichen Unwettern oder sogar Sturmfluten zu warnen. Die Aufgaben eines Reporters sind facettenreich: Du planst eigenständig kleinere SMS Events sowie große Versteigerungen und vieles mehr. Das Wirtschaftssystem von TerraTex bietet dir außerdem die Möglichkeit bei gewissen Wetterverhältnissen wie beispielsweise einer Ölkatastrophe mehr Geld bei dem Meeresreiniger Job zu verdienen. Bei einer Atomkatastrophe kann passieren das... Naja.. lass dich überraschen. Wir möchten dir ein Abwechslungsreiches Erlebnis ermöglichen und den Kontakt mit neuen Leuten herstellen und somit ein Miteinander erschaffen. Selbst wenn du mal nicht genau weißt was du machen sollst gibt es noch genügend Aktivitäten für dich. Triff dich an der Stadthalle mit anderen Usern, gehe in die Arena und spiele eine Runde Crash Durby, GunGame oder betrinke dich im Alhambra. Deale mit Drogen oder Waffen, verkaufe Hot Dogs oder führe nette Gespräche. All das führt zur einer einzigartigen Erfahrung. Das freundliche Serverteam steht dir bei fragen oder Problemen natürlich mit Rat und Tat zur Seite. Wenn wir dein Interesse geweckt haben sollten, dann schau doch einfach vorbei und mache dir dein eigenes Bild von dem was dir geboten wird. Mit einer steigenden Anzahl an Spielern wollen wir noch einmal auf dem Original Script gemeinsam eine gute Zeit erleben. Die Facetten des Servers noch einmal tabellarisch aufgelistet: 11 (+1 Admin) Fraktionen Admin-Fraktion: Hitman/Söldner - Töten Spieler auf Auftrag Es gibt drei "gute" oder auch "Staatliche" Fraktionen. "SAPD" - San Andreas Police Department "SEK" - Sondereinsatzkommando "N.A.M.E" - National Akademy of Military Education Nun folgen die drei "Neutralen" Fraktionen. Medics Taxi News Racer Zum Schluss gibt es noch vier "böse" Fraktionen oder auch "Untergrund Organisationen" diese sind unterteilt in "Gangs" und "Mafien". Jede Gang und Mafia hat ihre speziellen Fahrzeuge, jedoch angepasst auf allen Seiten, um eine Fairness zwischen den Fraktionen zu erhalten. Zu den Gangs gehören: "GS" - Grove Street - Gebiet: Los Santos "PP" - Pink Panthers - Gebiet: Las Venturas Zu den Mafien zählen: "LLS" - Legion of Los Santos - Gebiet: Los Santos "CF"- Cash Force - Gebiet: Las Venturas 17 (+1 Admin) Jobs Es gibt zwei Arten von Jobs, Spielerbasierte und nicht Spielerbasierte.

  19. Hi, No need for a specific license, just run your server as usual. At most, define an e-mail address in your mtaserver.conf (look for the owner_email_address field) and you're good to go. Sidenote: please avoid tagging staff members.

  27. Hi, It looks like cit2 took security measures against some form of leak they had in April 2025. Since this is a server-based incident, please consider reaching out towards their administration team for guidance (through their Discord or other platforms they have a presence on). We can't help you out on this because your issue is related to a platform we do not own nor moderate.

  37. Não oferecemos suporte para scripts de terceiros, lamento. Entre em contato com o autor do resource e peça uma correção. Além disso, a maioria dos elementos do HUD estão com tamanho e posição fixa, o que dará alteração em resoluções diferentes. Sobre esse problema de distorção, isso acontece por uma questão de proporção (aspect ratio) e não de resolução. Como ele foi feito na resolução 1600 x 900 (proporção 16:9), isso significa que qualquer resolução que esteja nessa mesma proporção irá funcionar normalmente (1280 x 720 também é proporção 16:9, por isso que funciona normalmente nele também). Porém a resolução 800 x 600 tem proporção 4:3, ela é mais quadrada. O que causa distorção no HUD mesmo usando posições e tamanhos relativos. Para corrigir isso, existe a função DxSetAspectRatioAdjustmentEnabled que deve ser chamada dentro da função do onClientRender e antes das linhas do dxDraw.

  38. Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm assuming all you're wanting here is that when the player hits the hunter then he gets the hunter bonus ? If this is the case then the only issue with your code is that in your getHunter function, you need to change addWinnerBonus to addHunterBonus

  40. Introduction This guide intends to teach 3ds Max users the basics and more advanced ways of working with Vertex Colors, in order to achieve lighting solutions for enhanced quality of game models, or blend several textures together using Vertex alpha. A lot of games utilises vertex colors to accomplish lighting or blending effects, which usually impacts the performance less than model shaders. Types of shaders such as Texture Splatting are pixel based techniques for rendering multiple textures onto a model, where each texture e.g earth, grass, gravel, has their own color on the splat map. This however may use up significantly more resources than its alternatives in some cases. As result, game developers may move their aim towards Vertex Alpha and Color rather than geometry shaders. Vertex Color works almost the same way, however it renders per vertex and not per pixel unlike shaders do. This may result in very poor results if the geometry is not subdivided at the places it is painted at. Besides texture blending, vertex colors are also widely used in games for fake lighting baked into models. This is due to some game engines not supporting Ray Tracing or other rendering, or they simply prefer using vertex colors over per-pixel lighting. In GTA:SA the only light rendering is done by vertex colors and 2DFX. In the days that the game was developed, vertex colors was a more sustainable rendering method over other options. Table of contents Different model lighting depending on game time Importance of vertex colors Importance of vertex illumination Basics of per-vertex Radiosity workflow Hard surface prelighting Faking ambient occlusion Texture blending with Vertex Alpha The vertexPaint modifier Extracting channel info Working with several VertexPaint modifiers Different model lighting depending on game time Game models use two vertex channels for lighting. Vertex color is displayed around 06:00 - 20:00. Vertex illumination is displayed outside that timeframe, that is, between 20:00 and 06:00. Between these timeframes, the two channels blends into eachother, creating a realistic daytime and nighttime visualization of the map. Remembering which channel is used for what can be a little troubling, on top of the many other things. Artists could consider Vertex Color = daytime, Vertex Illumination = nighttime. Below are various demonstrations of vertex color and illumination channels. Importance of vertex colors Below video demonstrates the effects of not prelighting game models for GTA:SA. The results are very easy to differ from prelit models, as the only depth seen on the models is made by the diffuse maps, which usually does not add sufficient shadows. That is where the artist may consider prelighting his model. As seen on the video, first footage is of San Fierro chunk without diffuse maps (textures) nor vertex colors. This results in completely white meshes. If however, the artist decides to utilise vertex colors, the model will have a lot greater depth added, without the need to bake light into textures at the expense of computer memory. The video's contents are 1:1 to how San Fierro would be rendered in-game around 12:00. No post processing or edits made to the models. Compression methods, post processing, sky and fog done by the Renderware engine will make it a tad different though. Below screenshot is taken from a Dust2 model ripped from Counter Strike. It shows how the vertex channel brings shadows and ambient occlusion into the model. If it did not have the vertex channel changes made, it would be completely flat, corridors would have no depth whatsoever, only some by the difference between the textures. Importance of vertex illumination Not all models use fancy colors like the pirate assets by Las Venturas strip. A lot of models use the same, though slightly darkened, version of vertex colors for the vertex illumination channel. The result of this is a darker object during night and brighter during day. Perhaps some has some highlights that are cast from streetlights and other light sources that appear during nighttime. Some models, notably light objects use vertex colors in conjunction with 2DFX in order to create realistic light with a real light source. Below example is a runway light. The white version is during day time, where the inner light mesh (the extruded part) is grey to represent an deactivated light. The red version is during night time, where the top surface has light reflected onto it, together with a corona image, more commonly known as 2D billboard or sprites. The corona acts as the light source and creates a bloom alike effect. (Not seen in image) Basics of per-vertex To get a somewhat understanding of how vertex colors work, below demonstration should be helpful. The triangle's top left vertex is painted blue, top right painted green and bottom painted red. This creates an RGB blend display of the triangle. The planar model has its bottom vertices painted black while the top ones are white. This creates more of a gradient across the entire model.To put the difference between per-vertex lighting and per-pixel lighting short, Vertex based lighting creates a gradient from one vertex towards the nearest one(s), and stops there. If a model has only 4 vertices, it is not possible to have circular or very detailed IES-like lighting, as the model would have only 4 points that can have light data. Pixel based lighting can have as many abstract details as artist wishes. It works as if there is a grayscale image on top of the model with a different blend mode, or dynamic lighting based on world models, hence the two are called per-vertex and per-pixel. Radiosity workflow Tired of painting vertex colors onto models with silly brushes all day? 3ds Max has an amazing light renderer, which can produce stunning renders and best of all, stunning prelights. As if it was made for GTA:SA era games! Not to forget, a 3rd party Max script was made to make the workflow a lot less difficult - can be found on: http://www.scriptspot.com/3ds-max/scripts/vertex-color-tools-1. With this script, artists can with a few clicks create a skylight, ground plane (for AO), then render a radiosity solution in less than a minute total. No more setting up radiosity settings, only a few adjustments to your likings if needed. I use it all the time myself, and in fact, I learned to create beautiful prelights by using this tool with radiosity rendering. Before moving on, ParoXum's Radiosity tutorial and the Radiosity wikipedia page contains extra information that is not covered in this thread, for instance particular use of point lights. For that reason they may be benefitable to read through. WARNING! Pressing the AO button on the Vertex Color Tool script, ALL materials will be reset to standard. This can not be reversed! Adding to the above. Make sure to create a backup Max project file prior to working with Radiosity. Use the backup Max project file for vertex colors, leave original file for modeling! This process is covered in the guide. Hard surface prelighting Most artists starting out with vertex colors have probably grown tired of selecting faces of a model, then painting a different value onto each to replicate a hard surface look. As it turns out, this is not an efficient way. The model will look odd if the artist has not put enough time (hours with sweat) into it. That is where automating it with Radiosity rendering is a fantastic solution. To get started, download the following FBX scene https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/308956559201796097/632340906170908673/demo.zip. Each point contains a spoiler with a video clip. For those who would like to mess around with the final result of mine, download FBX here: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/308956559201796097/632559814387695626/demo_result.zip (video below) Important thing to note, when using Radiosity for prelights, the shading/lighting which is baked into the model entirely depends on the smoothing of the model. If it's set to Auto Smooth value 2 the shading will resemble 3ds Max's shading 'facets', while if the model has only one smoothing group, the shading will be incredibly smooth and generally won't have any facet shading. San Andreas models generally had very low smoothing value for its models at their creation, judging by their hard surface appearence. If a modeler were to create models that blend in with the game environment, they should strongly consider the above. Video tutorial: Text tutorial: Import the file Click the 3ds max upper left corner, at Import hover over the arrow for a drop down menu to appear. Click Import. Click the demo.FBX. Ensure to include Smoothing Groups on import, and units setup in Meters. Reset X, Y, Z positions to 0, 0, 0. At import the model is not centered. Create light Navigate to Create tab, click the gears icon, finally select the Daylight button. Max will ask if it can set an exposure control flag (not a country flag bleh), click Yes. Click anywhere, this sets the compass. Then, drag the mouse up into the sky, press LMB to spawn the daylight system. The compass position is not important. Alter light Navigate to Modify tab, change Sunlight from Standard to IES Sun. Likewise for sky, make it IES Sky. On Sun Parameters uncheck Shadows. Ensure the sun's state is On. On IES Sky Parameters it is possible to modify the intensity of the sky, as well as the sun. Some of the settings that affect the sun is whether the weather is clear or clouded. Leave default. On hierarchy list, select the Daylight001 item. While on Modify tab, click the Setup button for setting the scene weather. As the light system works like real daylight, the lower the number of hours, the darker the scene. Set hours at 9, month at 9, orbital scale at 320-360. Initiate the radiosity solution by running Vertex Color Tools Ver1.0. Press the AO button. Keep in mind, that this will remove all materials and cannot be reversed with undo. The render setup window opens. Another window from Rendering > Exposure Control is needed. On Exposure Control, change from none to Logarithmic. Tick on the Exterior daylight checkbox, which is required due to scene using a daylight system. Optionally, start rendering previews via the Exposure Control window. These previews are very low resolution and may help visualise the lighting. Or, real renders by SHIFT Q, although this may take significantly more time and processing power. On Render Setup window, reset value of Indirect Lighting Filtering. Increase the Direct Lighting Filtering to a value of 8. Under Radiosity Meshing Parameters tick the Include Skylight checkbox. Under Rendering Parameters select Re-Use Direct Illumination from Radiosity Solution. On Render Setup window, make sure to press Reset, to then start a clean rendering with the updated settings. Click Start. This may be an incredibly slow process, even on high end computers. If it gets stuck, set quality to less. It does not really have much of an impact for GTA:SA light anyway. Voila, done. The final result will be displayed in viewport. The result is equal to what is seen in-game during day hours. If something looks off, go back and tweak settings. Bake Radiosity lighting solution into vertex channel. Navigate to Utility tab, click More..., select Assign Vertex Colors. Upon scrolling down the utility tab, the Vertex Colors settings appear. Vertex Color is for day time, Vertex Illumination is for night time. Choose Vertex Color. Set light model as Lighting + Diffuse. Set Color Assignment as whichever seen fit. On Rendering options, enable Mapping and Radiosity, Reuse Direct Illum. from solution. Finally, click Assign to Selected View vertex color result in viewport. On the VertexPaint modifier, select the channel that was just modified. On the VertexPaint GUI, click the shaded box to the left. This displays the model with only vertex channel rendering, no other 3D shading will be used. Further tweaking If one wishes night time lighting, the best to do is render a new radiosity solution with less sun and daylight intensity, in order to darken the scene. Eventually change to clouded or mess with weather settings. The new radiosity solution will be equally the same as the one for daytime, although a tad darker. When rendered, assign to illumination channel. The letters can be painted for night time to look extra cool. This is where painting by buckets onto face selections of the mesh can come in handy, using the VertexPaint modifier. Odd looking shadows can be fixed up with the blur brush (VertexPaint modifier). Those who are able to get results with the above Radiosity workflow, may utilise their knowledge and take prelighting a next step with other types of lights, in order to create environment lights such as shadows for light poles, torches, buildings etc. Point lights, more specifically Free Light, were used a lot in the ship model further down the topic. Scene lighting is generally hit and miss. There are many settings which may need to be changed e.g scale of daylight and smoothing groups of models, in order to get the right look. Faking ambient occlusion Vertices can easily store ambient occlusion details, negating the need for geometry shaders. Some models may require additional geometry through subdividing the mesh, in order to achieve proper ambient occlusion details with vertex colors. The type of light used is usually skylight or daylight, this creates subtle shadows around corners and creaks, as well as maintaining global lighting. The below model has vertex AO baked by using a Skylight with the following settings. *you can eventually utilise a plane as ground for the ambient occlusion to calculate a lot better. The above practise can be used for GTA:SA assets as well, some settings may require to be tweaked first though. Prelighting in general is trial and error unless the artist has a solid background with lighting and rendering. Generally though, ambient occlusion should not be the only layer for lighting a model. Hard surface lighting as well as adding point lights is highly recommended. Without these, models with AO will still look rather flat in most cases, as there is not much definition between corners, other than soft shadows. Adding point lights to radiosity render will also give the lighting a more natural feeling, this can be done by adjusting the temporature of the light or its color. Combining point lights (free light, omni light, etcetera) with 2DFX can give stunning results. Texture blending with Vertex Alpha Texture blending on MTA was thought to only be possible by shaders, e.g texture splatmap. Instead, we can now blend textures using Vertex Alpha channel. On December 27 2019 we discovered that Vertex Alpha works without need for additional scripting (MTA Discord #modelling). We also need to thank Deniska for writing this guide (gtamaps) on vertex alpha plus creating a maxscript that exports vAlpha channel! Vertex Alpha works based on grayscale values just like alpha masks. Any vertex that's black will not be rendered - any vertex that's not black will be rendered. White is fully opaque, while the greyer it gets, the more transparency is made. Vertex Alpha will not render water behind its faces, so it's important to place an opaque object behind the vertex alpha mesh. This must be a separate model, not part of the mesh that uses vertex alpha. As with vertex prelights, vertex alpha needs geometry to work with. It's highly recommended to turbosmooth/subdivide the mesh so that you can paint in more detail. In the video below, I show how quickly the vertex alpha can be added to your models, and once that's done, you can export the model using the script from this page. Create a plane primitive. Give it 16x16 segments. Convert it to editable mesh. Give it the material that needs to blend using alpha. Set opacity of material to 98. Add a VertexPaint modifier. Select the vertex alpha channel. Use paint bucket with black color, 100 intensity, to paint entire mesh black. Add a secondary vertexpaint modifier. Grab your brush, adjust its size and strength. Begin painting a path from one end to another. Use the blur brush to finetune the semi-transparent edges of your path. Sharp edges ain't good. Looks OK? Start the export-script. You don't need to collapse your modifiers when exporting. Keep them in stack for later adjustments. Export with MMC. Remember to always set alphaTransparency enabled when replacing the model, or else only part of alpha will show. If you want to use another DFF script (for a higher quality dff), simply copy paste the sections e.g "Extra Vertex Colors" via RWanalyze. (Script will break (in which case, close script and run again) if you try to export vertex colors without having first assigned vertex colors/illumination to the model via its respective channels) List of model ID's that use the flag 68 (NO_ZBUFFER_WRITE(64) + DRAW_LAST(4)), which is required for Vertex Alpha: 2728, 3872, 3910, 4227, 4636, 4637, 7892, 9831, 9896, 9897, 11678, 11679, 11680, 11681, 13494, 13495, 13496, 13497, 13498, 13499, 13500, 13501, 13502, 13503, 13504, 13505, 13506, 13507, 13508, 13509, 13510, 13511, 13512, 13513, 13514, 13515, 13516, 13517, 13518, 13519, 13520, 13521, 13522, 13523, 13524, 13525, 13526, 13527, 13528, 13529, 13530, 13531, 13532, 13533, 13534, 13535, 13536, 13537, 13538, 13539, 13540, 13541, 13542, 13543, 13544, 13545, 13546, 13547, 13548, 13549, 13550, 13551, 13552, 13553, 13554, 13555, 13556, 13557, 13558, 13559, 13560, 13561, 13563, 16375, 16445, 16498, 16623, 16676, 16677, 16733, 16734, 16753, 16754, 16756, 16757, 16758, 16783, 16784, 17436, 17437, 17438, 17439, 17440, 17441, 17442, 17443, 17444, 17448, 17450, 17451, 17451, 17452, 17458, 17459, 17460, 17461, 17462, 17463, 17464, 17465, 17466, 17467, 17468, 17469, 17470, 17474, 17524, 18073, 18112, 18610, 18611, 18612, 18613, 18614, 18615, 18616, 18617, 18618, 18619, 18620, 18621, 18622, 18623, 18624, 18625, 18626, 18627, 18628, 18629, 18630, List of model ID's that use the flag 64 (NO_ZBUFFER_WRITE(64)) which are not tested, but might work for Vertex Alpha: 1315, 2981, 4712, 4724, 4554, 8004, 8044, 11306, 14765, Below are a few examples of how vertex alpha can be used to blend several textures together. Above image courtesy: worsas @ project tamriel (see link for more) 128x128 textures, 8192 polygons (can be a lot less!) You can probably create something a lot better than this. Time to get creative! If you're looking for additional inspiration, see the videos in spoiler. Note: The below spoiler contains information that does not apply to vertex alpha method, but instead to vertex colors. This requires shaders, since SA uses the colors for lighting, but is a decent alternative if the model use lighting shaders. The vertexPaint modifier VertexPaint is the modifier that houses the WIP vertex colors, illumination and alpha modifications. It may be accessed on Modifiers tab. While it is open, it allows the artist to do various changes to the vertex channels. Ranging from painting with the use of brushes, to refining vertex colors by blurring, adjusting hue, saturation, lightness etcetera. This is a very powerful tool, despite not having been updated for years. To get started, the modifier works with a float GUI with all of its necessary functions in it. It is worth noting that the modifier can not change existing vertex channel data, only the data that is stored in the modifier. That means it is not possible to import a GTA:SA asset and modify the hue of the vertex color channel. For an exhaustive list of what the modifier offers, check Autodesk's page on the VertexPaint Modifier. Brief explanation of what the modifier has to offer, from top to bottom: Extracting channel info For whatever reason, an artist may want to copy the vertex channel data, that is, the custom vertex information, and paste that onto their latest version of the mesh. This could be due to an irreversible action that would prevent the artist from undoing the lighting changes on present model, resulting in work lost and having to redo it all over again. Although this may seem like a promising solution to regain old channel data, it can generate problems if the two models contain different geometry counts. Below steps explains how to copy/paste data. Navigate to Utilities tab, click the More button, after which, click Channel info. At last, press the button that appeared on the bottom of the utilities tab. At first, the Channel Info GUI may seem complicated; but it really is not. The only information to look out for is the ID column and Channel Name column. The Num Verts, Faces etc. are only important to verify that the two model contains the same model geometry count. In the above example, the model has no custom channel data. The -2:Alpha, -1:Illum and 0:vc are the types of channel info's that are relevant for GTA:SA, although the Alpha data currently isn not compatible with MTA. To copy data, simply select either of the rows and press the Copy button. Then, highlight the present model, select the corresponding channel and paste. Working with several VertexPaint modifiers On more advanced tasks it may be necessary to use multiple VertexPaint modifiers stacked onto the model. Artist may find it helpful if they are doing several versions of prelighting for their model and wants to go through each result, picking the one that suits them the most. This means that each type of radiosity lighting solution will be stored in its own modifier, allowing artists to go through all of them and delete the poor ones. Having multiple modifiers on stack can also improve workflow by utilising each modifiers for each element of the model, such as Modifier1 for bonfire logs, Modifier2 for bonfire shadows, Modifier3 for ambient occlusion, Modifier4 for moonlight etc. Modifiers can also be renamed to quickly tell the artist what they are representing. The model can have as many modifiers in its stack as the artist wishes (or until the software times out), and they do not require to be collapsed when exporting the model to MTA. This means that the modeler simply needs to select the model, export it and load into MTA. Modifiers can then be collapsed to stack when job's done, however, it is strongly recommended to keep them in stack for future, in case of parts requiring rework. Below model may give a good look into just how much it helps to utilise multiple modifiers. The ship has its own modifier for virtually any type of light emmitting source. The rectangular screens to the right are symmetrical on the other side, so there is one modifier that represents those 6 rectangular emmissive screens. Same goes for the cyan U-shaped engravement, which uses its own independant modifier, and so on. This allowed to change the engravement prelight from initially dark blue to cyan, by not affecting other lights when modifying the hue, as the modifier was only used by that particular area. The stack works like so: By clicking the bottom modifier, only that one's layer will show. If clicking the one above it, assuming it is same channel, it will show both of them. Now, if clicking the top modifier, it will show all layers e.g the rest 4 that are associated with Vertex Illum channel. It will only display the channel that is selected on the right most panel. (This depends on version of Max)
