About the mod:

I remember, when I just bought GTA 3 in 2002. It was one of the most awesome games I've ever played, and my opinion didn't changed since 2002. 2 years ago I decided to remake this game in high quality, because i want to make more fans and players of Grand Theft Auto 3.
Imagine the new version of the old Grand Theft Auto 3. Now, a(n amateur) modder team (Rockstar Wizards DT) makes a total conversion of this game. The city is same, Liberty City, "the worst city in the U.S.". The old, low-poly models are remade in HD (using hi-poly models and Hq textures), the graphics engine uses DirectX9, and it has a lot of added feautures. For example you can buy houses, cars. There are real-time reflections and DX9 effects (thanks to Boris Vorontsov), there are added cars, objects, and a totally new gaming experience, but the storyline is the same. The mod will be available for GTA 3, it does NOT uses R.A.G.E. engine. The team started the work 2 years ago, but then the mod, and the team was in very early stages.

About the team: A lot of member was added and deleted, but DK22Pac (scripter, etc) and Frank.S (rigging) are continuous members of the team. Of course me too, I am the leader of the team. I make models, textures and etc.

FAQ When will be the mod done? -I think we will finish in this summer, in the end of august. How many % is done? -I dont know, it would be little bit hard to say anything. It uses R.A.G.E. engine? -no Is it for GTA IV? -no Can anybody join to the team? -yepp, of course, just contact us. Will it be like Duke Nukem? -no, if I cant finish the mode, I'll share it, and hope that somebody will continue it. I dont think it will be necessary. Why is everything so cloudy and dark on the pictures? -because you said earlier, that with the previous effects and settings its too shiny and bright, and it wasnt like Liberty City.

I still can help with textures...
I thought about redrawing textures in chinatown, but I didn't find anybody who knows Japanese/Chinese. Some hieroglyphs are too blurred, and I can't even redraw them. (Anyways, who cares - they could be replaced with stuff from IV ).

That's renderware? The fourth picture doesn't even look like GTA 3 but I'm glad the atmosphere is still there!

not wanting to bitch, but III textures, 90% of them are 128x128 version of IV ones
exploring IV files, found almost every single III texture HD in 512x512/1024x1024

[d3jan]

2 Questions:

*What peds are you using? Are they from GTA IV? Are they from the GTA III XBOX Version (which were much better looking)? Will this mod include more peds than GTA III originally had?
*Will this mod have a new physics engine?

BTW, Amazing work! I love how you've taken full advantage of GTA 3's Renderware engine! It's not crappy, it's just the textures that R* used that are crappy.

Looking good. For EFLC you could do an HD Double Pack with Vice City HD. I know Ive sugested it before but I think doing one would be cool. You can pick the mod you wana play in the menu.

Great to see this mod still alive. Do you want my HQ greasy joes and apartment building I made for III rage? They dont seem to be using them. Ive also got a custom col for the apartment building if you want it.
