Billboards

[tosfera]

Hey,

Could anyone explain me how these advertisement boards work? I've been trying to figure it out for the past 36 minute's but its kinda,,, a mess if you ask me.

So there is an object; billbrdlan2_05. There is only a .dff file from that one, and from the _01, _02, _03 etc. Now, there is 1 .txd file called; billbrdlan2.txd, in this file there are 3 or 4 differen't image files from 32x16 pixels.

My question is, does the billboard take 1 randomly out, does it expand to the right size, is there another trick going on here? Cause I'd like to replace these image's with some other advertisements. :3

thanks.

Using a shader you can replace the image. But you need to know how that image is internally called.

let me do a quick search, and I'll try to upload a screenshot.

EDIT:

And the whole resource thing

Just search the internal filenames of what you want to replace.

EDIT2:

I think billboards are different in each city, so if you see a Victim in LV, that will be LV only.

Ahh now I see, it are shaders an it just isn't an object out of the gta3.img, that kinda solved my problem and my way of thinking! Thanks alot!

Just one more thing, where did you find the right name?;o in the gta3.img or the other .img file?

Usually, for world textures, is on GTA3.img and then find what billboard you want to replace. THey usually are a txd with just one texture

For vehicles is vehicles.txd
