As you know, the Sentinel on the PC version of GTAIII has a weird material/texture bug with the trim. The rear bumper is white, and doesn't have a black stripe, like it's supposed to on the PS2 version. Plus, the badges and front bumper and rear trim in between the taillights are also white, when they're supposed to appear in gray/dark gray.
This is basically what the normal Sentinel is supposed to look like, trim wise

Could someone help?
EDIT:The f*cking URL code keeps f*cking up the URL, right click+properties to see the URL.
EDIT:Forgot to mention, importing PS2 model works fine, however in GGMM it's all screwed up.
With PS2 model black bar on bumper appears, and damage bug with passenger fender is fixed...however, material bug is still present.

No help? It figures.

You can texture it again in zmod.

That's kind of what I thought had to be done....but i'm a clueless retard. I'd need help doing that.

Here's the improvements with the PS2 Model-compare it with the PC model.

Sorry for the bump....but is it possible to convert the PS2 GTAIII .txd and .dff to PC?

[NewportByChrysler]

.....i'm gonna assume it's not possible, due to the lack of attention. Either that-or it's because i'm trying to mod GTAIII, which no one cares about, since you can't play as Tyrone Biggums and fly around with a jetpack, or play as Boris Bustoff and take his fatass cousin out to get something to eat for the 1000th time.

I'm confused... I've been playing the PC version today and mine seems fine:




Are you saying that yours has a white stripe where the black stripe is?

[NewportByChrysler]

What i'm saying is-the PS2 civillian Sentinel is basically the Mafia Sentinel, material wise. Same bumpers/reflections(no body kit or louver or spoiler however).
PC civillian Sentinel is bugged, and has crappy material and reflections, and has a damage bug with the pass side fender.(bugged alpha)
PS2 version Sentinel uses same body64 texture as the Mafia Sentinel. PC version is missing bodyb64, which is the same as Mafia Sentinel's body64. The materials/textures have to be remapped, but I can't do that-I can't even draw a straight line in MS Paint.
PC civi Sentinel has the white stripe instead of black on the bumper-it's a bug with the model.

Mine seems to have the black stripe. What version are you using? Mine is UK 1.0

[NewportByChrysler]

Wait-whoa.
Your regular, civillian Sentinel has the black stripe on the bumper, and correct material and textures?
If you have the PS2 version-compare the PS2 Sentinel to the PC version. If I had a cap. card i'd upload pics.
My version is v1.1 US.

So you're saying the Sentinel (non-mafia) which looks like this:




Should infact look like this?




But it looks better with the silver stripe. If anything, the Mafia Sentinel is wrong - it should have a silver stripe rather than the black one.

[NewportByChrysler]

It's supposed to have the black stripe however-also, it has the same material for the trim/bumpers as the Mafia Sentinel.

What?

What are you trying to say - your grammar is appaling and I can't actually understand what you're talking about.

You've stated the Sentinel should have a black stripe like the Mafia Sentinel (like the Photoshop I posted in my last post) but what is it that you're saying? It looks perfectly fine to me - if anything the Mafia version is bugged, because it shouldn't have that black stripe there.

It should be silver to give a "metallic" effect.

This is what it looks like in game:






(i.e it looks gash - it looks like there's a missing texture). It SHOULD look like this:

My goddamn grammar is not appalling, i'm trying to explain something that's damn-near impossible to explain to someone who isn't a detail nut and i'm failing miserably, apparently.
tl;dr version(about as tl;dr as it'll get)-The PC non-gang Sentinel is supposed to look like the PS2 non-gang Sentinel, it doesn't, it has a different, lousy looking material texture, and a bug with the damage on the passenger side fender. The PS2 version non-gang Sentinel uses the same material textures as the Mafia Sentinel, and shares the black stripe on the rear bumper with the Mafia Sentinel. That's how the Sentinel on the PC version is supposed to look. It needs to be fixed. I can't fix it.

Here are some shots from the PS2 version of the Sentinel I got off Youtube-sorry about the quality, they're the best I could find.

[NewportByChrysler]

I'm trying to replace Civi Sentinel's textures with Mafia Sentinel's textures, using the newest version of TXD Workshop....but the f*cking stupid POS program keeps resizing the textures to 32bit in GTA3.img and if I replace the ones in TXD.img, the goddamn textures get pixelated for no reason, even if they're 32 bit.
