yes, he is right... all we want to see the Glendale Beta with the Brown Color... but there is something interesting about some info lay back on a closed site, im talking about 2006... about the Escobar Int. Airport Beta... below the Airport Tunnel Road near the first cuscene where appears the Plane landing when Tommy arrive to VC, there was a Tunnel, a further tunnel that connects between Liberty - Vice and i think San Andreas - Vice and the Tunnel is closed, thats nearly true because inside the game files there is a SIGN saying like in GTA 3 "Tunnel is closed...", but i dont if this is true...

I've basically finished my version of the beta GTA VC carcols, also that's obviously bullsh*t.

[VercettiKiller]

well, i guess that there is no answer about the tunnel, and i found something interesting on the First Trailer of VC, in the Topic Boat Scene when it`s turning aroung it can be seen the Beta Ghost Tower but if you look closely you can see 2 GHOSTS TOWERS, one eliminated from the original files, and another that everyone knows. I have no pic but the video talks for it selfs:

Freeze the video at 0:17, and i thing that Lighthouse is on another position because in the trailer is present, the Sabres Betas Version have the front grill mixed with the front capo, and no with the avaible modes separetly, watch closely. Is just my point of view...

[the_smoke]

Hey is there going to be a download for the mod, because i think it is dead?

I have already spotted the two ghost towers and brought that up in the past, it seemed that no one cared back then and I doubt they will now, the issue is that we dont know where the second ghost tower was so we cant place it back into the game.

Actually......I've discussed this with Dogman. It came to my attention that on the LOD map really close, you will see two of the same shapes on the ground (Kind of circular but no one can really tell). If you look in game, the ghost tower is right where one of those spots are, therefore, since they are the exact same shape and image, the second tower was back there.

The problem holding them back from releasing the mod was the map, which I fixed and made a nice little installer for about 2 months ago, and since then Mandog has said that he made a few changes to the map and now it freezes or something, but he wants us to fix the error without looking at the files.

So, well, I dont know what is going on.

[ManDog]

Your installer dosen't work, that's one of the problems, I reported this - about two months ago. I did everything you told in the readme. Didn't get any errors, then i went ingame - crashed, went in KEd - none of the map was changed. Turns out the installer isn't importing the files into GTA3.img (and yes, i extracted the data folder and stuff too.)

[ALMOST610]

It does work as I tried it 3 times over and over again and it worked, it is a problem with you.

Edit: I have just done it again, and again I followed my instructions and it worked.

[ManDog]

Dosen't with me, which is weird. Everytime i use it (follow every instruction) the files never go into the GTA3.IMG.

[ALMOST610]

Make sure you have not got GTA3.IMG or GTA3.DAT marked as Read Only.

You just never can install anything

[ManDog]

Nope xP I can't
And no, isn't read-only.

Then it is something else wrong at your end.

Start the 'GTA Mod Installer.exe' found in the folder called 'ALMOST610's Fixed Map Installer', then navigate to 'C:/Program Files (x86)/Rockstar Games' and create a copy of 'Grand Theft Auto Vice City' call it 'GTA VC Beta Mod'.

Back in GTA Mod Installer click on the 'Continue' button and then select the 3rd radio button 'Install a Mod (with a script) to GTA3 or Vice City' and hit the 'Next' button, now select the second radio button 'I want to select a folder that contains all the mod's files' and hit the 'Next' button.

At this stage you want to bring up folder select menu by clicking on the button with the three '...' dots in it like that, now navigate to dropbox and select the folder called 'ALMOST610's Fixed Map Installer' which is the same place as 'GTA Mod Installer.exe' is located, and hit the 'Next' button once the folder has been selected.

Now bring up the folder select menu again the same as before and navigate to the 'GTA VC Beta Mod' folder we made earlier and select that, as that is our clean VC Copy which we are installing the Beta Map onto. Click the 'Next' button and it will ask if you would like to make a backup, choose what you like and now it is installing the map files into the IMG for you.

After that process has been completed open the 'GTA VC Beta Mod' folder and paste the 'Data' folder from 'ALMOST610's Fixed Map Installer' into the 'GTA VC Beta Mod' folder and replace all the files.

The installation should now be done.
You might need the custom EXE that you put on DropBox, but I imagine that you are already using it. If you still cant get it to work after this then it is seriously something wrong at your end.
And make sure everything is NOT 'Read Only'
