FIRST POST!



oh and brilliant work gforce

[uNi]

Awesome work Gforce, this will be handy for a lot of us!

=========================
Very interesing. What about working with WPL sections? (all WPL`s has up to 16 sections and WPL Manager can edit only one of them).
=========================
Currenly there is one tool in developing stage to work with all sections - GTA IV Placement Tool by Dageron (he is Russian like me).

Of course the first section is pretty easy:

But some are a bit hard with lots of unknown sections:


Do not ask about it yet, please - it is WIP, I just only have tool pre-release from author)

Ahhh, you beat me! damn you, G

Will have a look at it, I guess when yoann finishes making the new export function in his tool, you can import the files in 3dmax, more MAP IO like... without models, but well Then maybe you can add some Collada importer and that is it, totally working MAP IO

I will anyway start my own one

@gtaps2modder: We actually have a WPL editor Yoann's WPL manager

[goin-god]

Looks very usefull. Good work G

funny you should mention Collada, i've been working on a little script that will allow the .dae files to be imported but keep them grouped together using the .dae filename as a group name

@gtaps2modder; i can't view your screenshots atm so i will look at them on another PC when i get time, but are you sure you're not confusing the .wpl files with .ide ?

updated screenie of the first (obj) section of IDE-IO added to first post

[KnightProwl]

OMG, great job gforce, dude, you gotta make others, like for vehicles and peds/players, just gotta man, i mean, i know it would be so damn hard to do, but for someone of your talent, man, it would be no time, but hey, keep them coming, btw, one question, you do plan to make others like vehicles and peds and stuff right?, if you dont, you might let me and others down, i mean, why make all but vehicles and stuff, i mean that makes no since to me, but hey, if oleg from zmodeler can do it, you can too, i mean, he did make the importer, so why not just make both , but just take your time dude, your gonna need it, for all this, but so far your doing a great job, anyways, thannks so much for all so far, hope to see a sh*tload more in near future, cant wait, anyways, peace gforce and the rest

[gtaps2modder]

I am absoloutly shure. WPL files can have up to 15 sections.

you should have no problems with Max9 as it was all built on Max 9.

you got the files in the scripts folder as they are in the download ?

@KnightProwl: there's a clue in my release post, i don't do vehicles

@gtaps2modder: if thats the case, we need another WPL decrypter

Edit: i just took a closer look on the modding wiki and now i see we need a new WPL decrypter that decodes all sections

yes please, a link to the file would be appreciated, hopefully it's not on a fileshare site, because the only fileshare site i can access from this PC atm is "filefactory"

@KnightProwl: i'm not completely ruling out a vehicle exporter, it's just that the main focus of this set of max scripts is mapping orientated, i'll see what i can do when this set is completed.

[gtaps2modder]

Direct download
If you need, I can translate it to English.

Btw, can you give to Dageron source of your WPL MaxScript? Hope he will be able to add supporting of all sections . He said that he can give all documentation of researches to you, but he dont want to give Yoann acess for it (I cant understand why).

P.S. Can you give me your MSN or ICQ?

[UZI-I]

Maybe because he is just a lil' f*cker ?

The way this community is taking is really bad. Each people try to beat other. Nobody share the research they've done...
Why the f*ck are you trying to make your karma better ?

Everything done since the GTA Modding community exist was done by good people... We've lost a lot of those good guy
Yes there is some skilled guy but remember that sentence : "Your knowledge is nothing if it isn't shared...."

Everything I done is free and open-source (most of public project) because that's the way of doing things good. That's how a community can grow up...

Sorry for my bad english. Now please come back to the initial topic...

[gtaps2modder]

I dont know why he has such opinions, anyway sorry. I will talk to him seriously

I can just only say that soon it will be english release of the tool)
If you want to discuss .wpl format, please tell me the thread where to do that)) I also have some info)

Sorry, lets really get back to main topic...

I put it to: max9\scripts\
(GTAIV_Script_Centre.mse to startup and GTAIV_water_IO.mse, GTAIV_wpl_IO.mse to Gforce_IV_Scripts). Autostart does work, but max9 reported error.

[Aschratt]

Great work! I had not yet time to test this, but I definitly will when I got some free minutes. Looking forward to this!
