Lets straighten a few things out then eh Monitor? Anyone's opinions are welcome for this map project because its a Community project, take this how you like it because I don’t give a sh!t really.

Your vehicle textures, in-fact yes I was going to use them when I looked for the topic with them all the links were dead, since you had no interest in Myriad anymore I was un-sure as to whether you would have kept them or not. Feel free to post a working d/l link here as it would be a pleasure to include them.

Now let's get onto something which you actually don't know about. Yes v0.1 had problem which I fixed in v0.2, hell I asked about 15 people to test it including Steve-M, GK, BH and others they all said it worked fine. I moved on with my package to 0.3 which for me and others who have tested it works absolutely fine. I like the way how you come in here and say this mod is BS when its certainly the largest modification and also the most well known modification in the whole GTA Community.

Everyone knows that Myriad Islands has its problems that’s not a secret, its a community project on an internet forum we are not all getting paid and working for huge international corporations now are we?

Ever thought that you installed something in-correctly? Ever thought that you didn't read the readme included with the pack? Ever though of explaining the problem instead of posting BS? Ever care to think how you could help the problems? Its a community project after all...

If you downloaded 0.3 and had the correct settings that were described in the remade then you will find this is not the most unstable mod ever. All the people who have tested this mod for me and said it worked does this make them liars? All the people who have posted in this topic saying nice one teh mod works, have I paid them to say that?

Try to post some constructive crit or something that will actually help the cause instead of just writing a lot of information that goes against everything people have said. Your creating a mod yourself, when you release it by people saying its sh*t it doesn't work I’m sure you will ask them to explain further to help the cause.

Lets go for a little edit now then, yeah you have started to be more constructive by saying what you feel is the cause of theses crashes you are having. Can you be more specific? Which lots you feel are the cause of this, which textures, which lots are high poly and have problematic cols? Anything would be helpful...

If anyone else has problems which Mon has been having them then feel free to post the only way the problems will be fixed will be through knowing about them. Personally I don't get any crashes at all with Myriad and my new package.

Tested it. Seems really nice and crash free but some buildings just have horrible and lo res textures that make it look shabby and ugly. Also, some of the cars in myriad needs some scaling to do and some just needs proper 3d wheels.

[mickarrow]

I'm still on 0.2, dunno really if it's fixed in 0.3 but I thought I mentioned it as well. Some of the cars have bad lod. They're way too boxy. When I ride around and I approach too fast, the lod switches to the 'real' model at the last moment, so one second I can see those driving boxes, next second I see a car.

[aad]

It is fixed but u need to put the limits heigher then is subscribed in the readme

to get the 0,3 version running put the limits of the gtavc.exe this values

objects: 2000

Dummy's : 2000

streaming memory 120

this works perfect im gonna play it now and test for crashes and bugs hope it solves a few but it worked for me.

Monitor just put the values right dude it works perfect.

[GT-1]

Yeah maybe I was harsh in my last post to you Monitor I see it this way, by coming in here and posting and ranting heavily doesn't get anyone anywhere including teh mod, as its a community project we should all aim to get it fixed up.

I'll edit my first post with what aad said and add a little message on m i dot com. I would prefer Myriad to work perfectly and its getting much better than it was in the past.

@ Mick, thats because car authors have not included the chassis_vlo, which basically means they have no lod model and only appear when you get close to them like buildings with no lods. They could do with fixing up really....

[Vercetti Gangsta]

My game runs a lot better with the same limits as AAD:

streaming memory 120
objects: 2000
Dummy's : 2000

I have no crashes anymore

[AzO]

I have almost all buildings intalled and I have no crashes

Streaming memory - 90
Buildings - 9000
Dummys - 9000

Myriad does crashes ocassionally if you recklessly drive around the island and spins the camera a lot. Best way to make it 95% crash free is to successfully fly around the island with a Skimmer.

[Blatent]

you saved me a lot of installing with this gt1 and i cant seem to crash it at all keep up the gd work.

[Monitor57]

ayayayayay i wasnt dissin ppl's work here, i know everyone has worked there fookin nuts off to get even this far, and for that i am greatful..

it was just the fact that it tended to be rather unstable that got me... and umm btw, not to any offense towards the authors but i dont think the following authors cars fit the mod:

Delfi's
Sadmac

the fish is rather boxy and i dno wot the fook is up with the rear suspension, and delfi's cars just.. well they just dont fit with the gta style :s

if you guys really want i could make you some replacementsw for these cars, as i wouldnt mind doing so.. i fell now that its the least i can do

I obviously can't speak for the Myriad council, but I for one agree with you and would like this.

SadMac made 2 identical cars which take up 2 spots, both don't realy fit Myriad, Delfis however seem ok, maybe a remake would be for the best though.

Oh and are you ever gonna release that lorry you made for Myriad m57?

yeah sure its already finished, it just needs adverts to go on the side .... which i never got, if u guys can supply me with 2 more adverts for locations (shopping centre's or something that needs lorry transport) on 128x128 templates i will get it released, and it will replace the mule


i know that slots already taken, but i took it 1st and reserved it, so technicly its mine...

[GT-1]

One of the fish cars by Sadistic has already been replaced by a vehicle by Turpuli, I guess you never noticed. We once spoke about both of the cars been changed in irc between a few people due to it not entirely fitting Myriad. There is only 1 fish vehicle left in Myriad but I cant see any harm in replacing it as everyone agreed that it was not as fitting as other vehicles for Myriad.

If you create a new one, maybe try and make it to a similar style. I'll catch up with sadistic sometime about it hopefully.

[Barton Waterduck]

How about those car handlings that makes cars flip over when you're just turning ? That's not normal. I've driven my share of bad old cars in the real world going sideways on dry asfalt whitout ever flipping over. It just never happends like that. You can even make a frickin minibus slide on dry asfalt.

I can live with cars that looks like toy cars in size, shape and whatever, but when you can't even drive them without them flipping over... duh.

And I'm not talking about all the cars obviously.
