ekin113 Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 I was just woundering if there will be Careers implemented into GTA3 .04. I was reading an old thred and Mr.Bump said there will be many but there is none at the moment Link to comment
SM xenex Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 Hmmm yes there are , your new arent you? With careers we mean the different characters : mexican,sailor,robber,cop,crusader,secret agents ^^ these are all careers ( excpet mexican and crusader) . Link to comment
ekin113 Posted July 29, 2004 Author Share Posted July 29, 2004 isn't that for VC?? im talking about GTA3 Link to comment
SM xenex Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 Oops sorry then , didnt see that part. anyways i doubt that bump ever mentioned that gta3 will also be gettign careers , gta3 handles skins very differently then vc does so thats why it doesn have it i doubt it ever will. yes yes the old version of gta3 had 2 skins , but one of them was buggy.

orappa Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 So does that mean that everyone will be stuck with the "default" character? I thought that would only be temporary. Link to comment
StAnToN Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 So does that mean that everyone will be stuck with the "default" character? I thought that would only be temporary. nah i think int he new core they "MAY" implement different carrers or MAYBE even a character selection but i doubt it... Link to comment
OpiuM. Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 JESUS!!! are you f*cking serious....lol you cant? i need to code GTA3 scm, and get to the bottom of this! lol Link to comment
ekin113 Posted July 29, 2004 Author Share Posted July 29, 2004 oh ic, yes i also thought it was temerary but i was just making sure. and if one of the skins were buggy y not keep the other skin and the default skin?? Link to comment
ekin113 Posted July 30, 2004 Author Share Posted July 30, 2004 and while were at this when will the other islands be available? Link to comment
orappa Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 and while were at this when will the other islands be available? There will be updates later on (sorry, no asking for release dates). Link to comment
StAnToN Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 JESUS!!! are you f*cking serious....lolyou cant? i need to code GTA3 scm, and get to the bottom of this! lol yes u can code a char selection for gta3 as ggm have done.... Link to comment
Posty Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 JESUS!!! are you f*cking serious....lolyou cant? i need to code GTA3 scm, and get to the bottom of this! lol yes u can code a char selection for gta3 as ggm have done.... But the thing is, they can't display text on the char select unless they get out of the movie mode (with the bars at top/bottom) Link to comment
DominionSpy Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 But the thing is, they can't display text on the char select unless they get out of the movie mode (with the bars at top/bottom) Why is that? In the single player game there are subtitles in widescreen mode, surely they could utilise that? Link to comment
Si|ent Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 I dont really see the relevance of that Posty, presumably your talkign about ggm? Lets keep it on topic As we have to keep stressing, gta3mta is NOT simply mtavc in new (old) clothes, its an entirely new game and you shouldn't expect anything in gta3mta to appear in mtavc, or vice verca. i.e. Just because mtavc uses careers with fixed spawns this doesnt mean gta3mta will.

Kent747 Posted August 2, 2004 Share Posted August 2, 2004 GTA3's engine is seriously limited compared to VC, you'll notice the blue/disco bugs those are caused by straining the engine (type GIVEUSATANK about 60 times and you'll see that). also there are limitations with the number of other types of items we can create. loading actors w/ different skins takes up more memory and strains the engine more.. this is the reason everyone has the same skin, and one of the several reasons we limited gameplay to 1 island.

orappa Posted August 2, 2004 Share Posted August 2, 2004 loading actors w/ different skins takes up more memory and strains the engine more.. So are you saying that the problem is less likely to occur on a more powerful PC? Link to comment
Kent747 Posted August 2, 2004 Share Posted August 2, 2004 no, hte problem is in the engine not in the pc.. as far as I can tell, (im obviously speculating a bit, as I do not have the source code to GTA3) Link to comment
DominionSpy Posted August 2, 2004 Share Posted August 2, 2004 this is the reason everyone has the same skin, and one of the several reasons we limited gameplay to 1 island. Does that mean we probably won't get the other islands together? *runs off and cries to sleep* Link to comment
Kent747 Posted August 2, 2004 Share Posted August 2, 2004 probably not all together at once with this core. Link to comment
orappa Posted August 3, 2004 Share Posted August 3, 2004 probably not all together at once with this core. One question I have is: Are a lot of the problems due to GTA3 using the 0.3 core that was designed for Vice City? Link to comment
Si|ent Posted August 3, 2004 Share Posted August 3, 2004 Are a lot of the problems due to GTA3 using the 0.3 core that was designed for Vice City? No. Link to comment
Slothman Posted August 3, 2004 Share Posted August 3, 2004 okay, so thats why theres no char selection, but heres an idea: how about 2 different skins? 1-default gta guy (that's you) 2- some other skin (everyone else) just like in americas army where they show the enemy as the terrorists, no matter which side you are on, you could do this in mta so you see yourself as the gta guy, but everyone else as, say, mafia. so multiple characters chokes the engine....how about 2?

Why 2 skins? Theres no point in adding any skins. You want an even bigger chance of disco skies? Link to comment
ekin113 Posted August 7, 2004 Author Share Posted August 7, 2004 you say that only one of the old skins were glitched.....y not bring default and the unglitched one? Link to comment
