I cannot complete Uzi Rider. The marker to finish the mission is placed wrong. Apart from that I really enjoy beta 3.3 so far.

[Craig Kostelecky]

One of the few missions I've yet to play. I'll check that out and try to get a fix to you that will work with your current save.

[Craig Kostelecky]

Fixed.

1. There isn't a Pony by the vehicle crusher--was the Pony removed to make room for one of the added vehicles?
Edit: the Pony finally appeared.

2. Having Claude get into the Pony south of Joey Leone's gave me an unhandled exception:

That is the ugliest crash report I think I've ever seen. Every single parameter seems to be messed up. What happened before this crash?

[glenster]

I was just having Claude look around so I could change my maps of "GTA III"
vehicles for new maps for the LC mod. He got into the Pony and there was a
crash menu on the screen. I've had him do it again since and there wasn't a
crash. BitDefender Antivirus was in game mode so it wasn't that. I may have
left Windows Paint running showing one of the old maps, but it hasn't caused
that before.

PS: my peds have VC voice actors.

Thanks. I completed the storyline. I did not get a single crash except Under Surveillance. I noted little differences in some missions but I really enjoyed it.

Note them down here, perhaps we can do something with them for next release.

[Craig Kostelecky]

Also, in your opinion are the differences good or bad? What did you think of the longer Kenji mission?

I didn't find it bad. Those differennce are so little. You guys did a great job by making this mod. I like however to play the missions original as possible from GTA III. So I rather play the original code from Kenji's Grand Theft Auto Mission.

That's a paths issue that I'd like to have fixed.

I'm not worried about that, but if someone is willing to remake that, I'd gladly use it.

I think we'd need to convert a GTA3 opcode to get that to work and it wasn't ever important enough to invest time. Again, if it can be done, I would use it, but I do not see it as necessary.

This is one that we should fix. There is an opcode in that mission that gives you 6 stars but makes it behave more like 4 or 5. If Silent can figure that one out, I'd be happy.
This is fixed with the 33update package.

This is another one that could use fixing. I think Hammer's emulation of one opcode wasn't quite right.

I'll take a look into that.

Agreed, it is harder to do. I didn't see anything in the scm that I could alter to make this easier.

Kingdom Come: SPANKed up madmen didn't speak.

There's a lot of audio that isn't quite ported over. The make actor say something opcode doesn't work and emulating it hasn't worked out quite right.

This seems to be a gang behavior issue. Perhaps there's some scm work I can do to force him to attack the Nines.

Noted. I think for the final version, it will have the original code.

GREAT report. Thanks for the details.

I was awarded the Borgnine for 99 Taxi fares instead of 100.

Has the setting been brightened a bit? One of my mods of a VC car mod is a bit too bright due to the .dff file (which I don't know how to mod) and parts of it are bleached out in the LC mod.

PS: if you're through looking at my crash report I'll take it off if you want--it's pretty big.

I am. Thanks.

I do not know the answer to the car color question, but I will look into the taxi code

[glenster]

My default LC mod cabbie.dff doesn't make my Cabbie too bright, Klarnetist's '57 Chevy Kaufman Cab .dff file does (and I don't know how to mod .dff files--just .bmp files of the .txd file). I've replaced the Cabbie with his Kaufman Cab and modded the .bmp files of the .txd file to use it as a Cabbie. I mean the parts that are too bright in VC look washed-out in the LC mod.

Update files: Borgnine award fixed--awarded at 100 fares.

Is the Sniper Rifle pickup by the Armor pickup on the roof of Uncle BJ's N of the circular
onramp to the lift bridge an LC mod extra or just generally overlooked by "GTA III" map
makers?

v Thanks! "...a mixup the first time you reported it " Maybe in how I installed it--I wasn't sure about that.

Not sure what you mean. I thought that gun was always there in GTA3/LC.

Oh and nothing was changed with the taxi code Must have just been a mixup the first time you reported it

[ITBTD]

One thing I've noticed is, the grenades from VC are still being used instead of the III ones (At least the textures still are. I have no idea if the model is different between the two games).

I have some more general bugs I've noticed that aren't particularly related to 3.3.

Again, maybe it's just that I didn't install the LC mod properly, but I don't
see any difference when I change the gang behavior numbers in pedstats.dat.
In Rampages, I couldn't stop the fact that all gang members around try to
run away when Claude uses a Flamethrower, and otherwise, though I gave the gangs
the same numbers, some gang members are hostile and others aren't.

I think that pedstats.dat are mostly saved in the save.

[glenster]

I finally managed to do Trial by Fire. But I can't complete the Flamethrower
Rampage in south Staunton. I get the nearby targets but can't get the rest that run
away as soon as Claude uses the Flamethrower anywhere near them.
