CURRENT VERSION: 0.7
(Note that since I'm really lazy, you should check the below link for the latest version number..)

Download

Yes, CLEO three-quarters..

Description

This mod adds extra optional settings to the stream.ini file, which already contains several settings for GTASA.

There are currently 18 extra settings. I'm working on finding some more to add.


Settings

• Frame Delay
• Frame Limit
• Max AI Peds
• Max AI Vehicles
• Black Roads Fix
• License Plate Filtering
• Stencil Shadow Opacity
• Disable Interior Reflections (alt+tab bugfix)
• Disable Motion Blur
• Disable Sound
• Disable Collision Particles
• Disable Flashes
• Disable Heat Haze
• Disable Clouds
• Disable Target Blip
• Disable Specular Vehicle Lighting
• Disable Vehicle Lighting
• Disable Grass

This mod works with both CLEO 4 and CLEO 3.

Visit the CLEO Website for the latest version of CLEO.


I'm working on adding new tweaks and bugfix options, so if you have any specific requests (and know how it can be done), feel free to ask here.

Amazing job Deji, Working great for me !
The frame limiter and the frame delay made my game more smooth , Shadows are buggy a bit because you can't see them from a far distance, But they look great with the value 7.
Can you add more stuff later that could work as a stream memory fix ?

[Deji]

Yeah, if I can figure out how it works

[Togrul]

game crashes after i load a savegame.why?
PS:i tested it on a very clean GTA too.

[Deji]

Post the contents of your stream.ini file.

[Darecki]

By the way, does stream.ini do anything in game? I've always thought that it has nothing to do with game - for example these memory lines...

EDIT:

Tested it and unfortunetely it gives me and error after loading savegame too... And stream.ini seems not to be changed in any way - here it is:
memory 78000
devkit_memory 78000
vehicles 20
pe_lightchangerate 0.0005
pe_lightingbasecap 0.35
pe_lightingbasemult 0.5
pe_leftx 16
pe_topy 16
pe_rightx 16
pe_bottomy 16
dontbuildpaths

devkit_memory is the same as memory (the value of whichever one you put last is used).

vehicles works too. Setting to 0 causes only emergancy vehicles to spawn.

Don't know what most the others do.. but here are some others that aren't in the original file:

CODE

pe_bRadiosity    1  (dunno what that means either :p) def_brightness_ntsc 256  (same as menu brightness) def_brightness_pal 256  (same again)

Anyway.. If there are no extra lines in your stream.ini file, there should be no problem.

Which version of gta_sa.exe do you have? Forgot to mention this mod requires 1.0 US. I can maybe expand this in the future, but it uses many 1.0 US functions and memory addresses.

Hi Deji, love your work As always ..

I'm using this stream.ini here, I don't know where I got it from though ..

CODE

memory  270000 devkit_memory 270000 vehicles 120 peds 120 people 120 pe_lightchangerate 0.0005 pe_lightingbasecap 0.35 pe_lightingbasemult 0.5 pe_leftx 16 pe_topy  16 pe_rightx 16 pe_bottomy 16 dontbuildpaths

I don't know if it changes anything or not .. But I'm using it ..

[SilentPL]

Yeah, it's not my topic, but I can suggest one thing, that should help Deji to trace bugs.


Download SALA (CLICK), extract it to your game directory and run SA as usual. After crash log will be shown as pop-up, and the same report will be saved in errordump.txt file. Then paste whole file here - that log might help to trace crashes.

[Deji]

Doesn't work for me. Installing it causes the game to think I don't have DirectX 9.0

I'm not noticing any bugs with Stream Ini Extender so far. I can pretty much guarantee that Stream Ini Extender will work on 1.0 US gta_sa.exe's and not on others. I'll try and correct it, but I'm not certain it can be made compatible.

[Rider916]

hope it could work wit hoodlum exe

[Adler]

Probably every mod works with Hoodlum. In fact, I'm using it right now.

Didn't for me .. I get crashes @ startup ..

[Deji]

It should work with the original hoodlum .exe fine. I'm trying to make this work for other .exe's, too, but it's tricky since I have little idea about the other .exe's.

If someone can give me an error address, that'd probably help

Edit: Updated Stream Ini Extender to 0.2b - Added 3 new settings and a possible fix for the .exe incompatibility. Don't quite know if it will work, but it's a first step.

Do you want me to send you the gta_sa.exe file ?

[Kickme93]

Doesn't work with my version either

[Deji]

"P.O 2010"?

GTA SA Compact definitely works with this.. as well as the original 1.0 US. I can extend these limits, but only with the error reports.

What is the exact size of your .exe in bytes?


EDIT

Oh yeah.. and had you added anything new to the stream.ini file when this crash occured?

Weird it seems to be working for me only ? i didn't try the new version but the old one is working correctly.
I just can't start a new game, but the saves are working great.
thats the content of my stream.ini if it helps anybody:

CODE

memory 270000 devkit_memory 270000 vehicles 20 pe_lightchangerate 0.0005 pe_lightingbasecap 0.35 pe_lightingbasemult 0.5 pe_leftx 16 pe_topy 16 pe_rightx 16 pe_bottomy 16 dontbuildpaths framedelay 0 framelimit 105

Also thats the size of my Exe (14,383,616 bytes)

[Deji]

The new version will definitely work. It's working for you because you have a compatible .exe.

This script uses functions from the gta_sa.exe which not only make the mod actually work, but make it work simply and effeciently... as well as editing memory of it.

The compact .exe, which definitely is compatible with this (and everything apart from SA-MP, it seems.. grr) can be found here.


@Edit by Function-X

Yeah, you've got the 1.0 US Hoodlum .exe, which is supported

Size on disk : 14,385,152

Stream ini is default; as I rebuilt my GTA:SA from scratch yesterday to accomodate P.O 2010 (the new Project Oblivion that is fully compatible with SRT )

I will try that compact GTA:SA that you posted. What is the difference between that exe and HOODLUM?

EDIT :
Compact wouldn't work for me either .. crashed on startup .. @ least with Hoodlum and the PO 2010 exe it lets me actually try to start a new game, or load a game before it crashes ..
How would I go about installing a seperate fresh installation of SA ? If I try to install, it asks if I want to remove it ... I just want to install a second copy of SA, so then I can install CLEO4 and this mod, and see if there is any conflicts with other mods I have ?
