hi all , i'm tweaking my game to make it look like vice city . i know there are few mods underwork but none totally finished or bug free . so i ask if someboby that has the time could make a tropical weather . i would have done it myself but i'm pretty busy right now . i have to finish the changing of the vegetation , and to finish tweaking the popcycle and few other things . here's the things i would like to have :

-Florida like color of sky (and sun)
-FL like color of the sea
tropical rains
and if possible a more transparent sea so it may look like the pic below

i think it can be done pretty fast if you have already tweaked the timecyc already . i mean it could be used by lot of guys and would be an awesome mod . i have a picasa album about Miami , it may be helpful . if none decides to do it , i'll do it myself , but man hope i'll do that before next year


Miami/Florida stuff

i put a VC icon because if i could i would put VC icons everywhere but this is a request for IV

i'm back at Vice city


the file isn't finished yet . i'll share it once it's finished , for those who want a ticket to VC . but still have to investigate about some timecyc values to get the thing the most realistic possible

that post started asking for help , and it will finish as a new mod . but i think Vice city lovers won't complain . finished the sky lights by sunny days

my graphics mod weather is based off my native california.
it's very tropical, lots of pink and light blue and violet skies.
once it's ready for beta download it through the enb picture thread or gta4-mods.com.

really looks like VC . I'm amazed

[little seoul]

glad you approve

cheers mate

i think it's gonna be nice once done but lot of work . i project to create realistic timecyc , realistic popcyc , realistic vegetation ,realistic handlings ,realistic carcols . well lot of work between palm trees that spawn in the middle of the streets that i have to make go down and timecyc crashes . i don't say i'm going to release a mod cause i don't want to have any pressure as it may takes weeks to complete . but i'll maybe share my stuff once it's done . vegetation is 97 % finished , tymecyc 50 % , popcyc 50 % , handlings 97 % carcols 99 % . but it's worth the efforts cause sometimes when i see the timecyc results , you really think you are going to meet Crockett and Tubbs somewhere . i also modified few roads names , castle drive into castillo drive , Ivy road into Izzy road , Evan intl airport lol . Good luck to your project

[jpm1]

check the streets name

[jpm1]

i'm making my timecyc from scratch , that's a tremendous work , but sometimes the result can be amazing . i'm new with that timecyc thing but if that doesn't impact much the performances , i can say i would be able to do a photorealistic Florida like weather . sometimes my spirit flow away 2 seconds where am i , am i in GTA or at Miami you know . we'll see . here few pics

I'm very impressed by that last pic. Great job!

Why is the traffic very low?

Also to avoid triple posting in the future, you could post the pics in the 1st post.

[jpm1]

thanks . i have deactivated the traffic scripts . i made a post tonight about the problem you're mentioning . yes i maybe should have posted all the screens in one post , but now it's done

[ShakingASS]

Man you should make this for IV:SA very well done.

[jpm1]
