Jobs, interesting idea.

The ability to buy property does interest me, we could mark every building in a config file with just the map coords and what type of building.

Do you want a poll on here about how we want the story line? If so, give me 5 questions.

Okay, so...

1) Who could be the main character?

2) Does it would be one or more main characters?

3) If there's only one main character, he/she would have a girlfriend/boyfriend?

4) Who are his/their enemies?

5) How it would start?

EDIT: Sorry for taking too much, i am kinda busy with installing all the stuff in my computer again, but i'm starting to write.

Buissness system? Something like empire buildings from vcs will be great!

Also being able to play a police officer from the start in a corrupt department.

I thought the same. You're playing a good cop, but rest of cops wants to do something wrong with protagonist(maybe kill or kidnap his family) and he want revenge

[X-Seti]

I guess in a sense some of the bad cops are paid to look the other way, these guys are either working for the mob or have their families to protect.

Your suspended from the police force being setup your now on a mission to go after mafia bosses

As SOL also contain the Map of SA, Then it should also Have Features of SA (as much as Possible)

[X-Seti]

I would like to see the spawn selection finished with vehicles m8, we have the whole map to work with.

spawn selection finished with vehicles

Ahhhhh! What ?

[X-Seti]

What I meant was when you pick a location to spawn when you first start the game, you can pick what vehicle you want spawned next to you.

[Ashwin the new boy]

Done. Uploading..........
-----------------------------------
Any other Work ?

Before we merged we used the gtasol.exe, but we abandoned this for softpatching everything from scratch, new dll and launcher. Now we sadly split up, I am left using the old gtasol.exe once again, only way we can run the mod until this is replaced.

Maybe you can make a list of soft patches you need? I could take a look at it and maybe write a launcher and a dll for you.

[X-Seti]

Hello and a big thank you for doing this for us.

I do not have any source code for the patching tool used in SOL originally made by Steve M, Updated by Andy and then around 2009 by Me.

All I have is the defined limits used to patch the exe

So here is the info I have and I do not have my devbox working right now, PSU blow and I do not know the full damage till I can get another PSU later on.

So the limits are:

Map bounds. it would be nice to tweak some of these limits in the config file.
This would also allow other modders to be able to use this in their own mods.

W -22000, E 18000, S 20000, N 20000

Depth -Z 20000
Height +Z 20000
Water 6.0

Game hacks.

Sea Colour = 2a95ac - dde6e8 (Replaces the brown)

Gravity = 100

Game path for gta_vc.dat renamed to gtasol.dat
This saves us hacking KED

IPL Limits.

DYN = 190000 (Dummys - 4byte - Number of dynamic objects instances (IPL lines in the objects.dat)
STC = 190000 (Static Objects defined in how many IPL lines in the IPL files)
DRW = 300 (Draw Solid Distance)
PTH = 2 bytes needs to be increased to 4 bytes index


Map Limits.

IDE = 32768 (IDE Objects - Multiple Instance 280bytes)

Maximum number of object definitons.
Each IDE object definition occupies 68bytes of memory space. The Required memory, to the next multiple of 4096, is automatically added to the end of the executable.

ID = 32727 (Static Memory Allocation)
TXD = 32700 (Max TXD loaded, Engine assigned ID numbes to them just above the ID map objects)
2dfx = 100000 (2DFX effects declared in the IDE file)
TObj = 32768 (Timed Objects)

Streaming Memory = 1024 (Max 2024Mb)
Threads = 1

PTR = 500000 (Ptrnode - TXD bitmap allocation)
ENT = 320000 (EntryInfoNode - Number of lines in the IPL file.)
COL = 32000 (Max collisions Models)
OBJ = 90000 (TXD Files)
ZON = 200 (Zon File Entries)
Vehi = 110 (Vehicles)
Peds = 140 (Peds) Needs to be hacked, Maybe like MVL
Weap = 64 (Weapon models) Hacked like MVL
AUD = 192 (Audio Script objects)

I like MVL a lot but here is an idea, have your own vehicle horns ?

Have you started to Drive around SOL to plan out some Races?

[Ashwin the new boy]

Yeah i have Plan some Race & not only Sprint or Circuit,
Also eliminate, Highway Battle & Outrun
but i'll start Work on them after Having Many Racing Vehicles,
---------------------------
What about F1 Race ?

ohh Shi*t! i forget that i have to Give some Vehicles today,

This post has been edited by Ashwin the new boy on Saturday, Apr 14 2012, 06:15

[KrinkinOnline]

F1 Race would be nice, And as the USA are getting too F1 races soon it'll be nice to have an F1 track in SOL bases around them 2 tracks. With the first track having a race this year maybe we can all get an idea on what the track will be like.

Also I'd like the idea of many different race modes, the races modes in GTA have always been quiet boring once you had done them a few times. Outrun was always one of my favorites from Need for Speed Undercover with Eliminate being race mode as well.

Anyway I have a version of the solhacks flt which has debugging text and shows the co-ordinates so if the spawn script hasn't been finished yet maybe I could give that a go and get a few spawns going. And what about moving the spawns to the airports or a any of the train stations to make it feel as if you have just arrived in that city.

Dont wait for the Vehicles just make the Races, and use the Infernus, Cheetah, etc. for now and you can change it later, otherwise people might thing you are all talk, and I know you are not.

Also how about Drag Races, would they work in SOL?

[KrinkinOnline]

Drag races, maybe in them tunnels, or across that bridge going from Mainland Liberty to Liberty City
