Stand back, this could get messy.

Anyone know where I can find a trainer (I think thats what its called) for GTA IV? I found a couple searching Google but the one I had from here was much more in depth and had a LOT of options to mess around with. Does that ring a bell for anyone?

That would be "Simple Native" - http://www.gtagaming.com/downloads/gta-iv/script-mods/2115

And to load the trainer you just need http://www.hazardx.com/details.php?file=84

Unzip and throw those files into your GTA4 folder.

Did anyone ever make a mod for GTAIV that makes all pedestrians hate/attack you including cars trying to ram you nonstop? That was one of my favorite cheats from GTA:SA and from Saints Row 2.
There's something like that. It's called the Ambient Wars mod. Doesn't turn all pedestrians into assholes, though.

If I got EFLC from steam, how do I downgrade my EFLC from 1.0.3.0 to a moddable version

void_serfer
Jan 13, 2012

I was under the impression that the versions beyond 1.0.3.0 are moddable.

EDIT: It seems to me, that there is only one version of EFLC. The vanilla game, however, has several versions with 1.0.7.0 being the last moddable version.

I'm having a problem with my Steam version of San Andreas that I downgraded to v1.1. I finish the mission Drive-Thru at the beginning, and then answer the phone call from Sweet about the gym. When the screen cuts to the gym for the tutorial, the screen goes black and stops responding. Anyone else have this problem?

It's a great ad but I just can't get over the graphics, and have no interest playing games on my phone. I'd pay $30 for a pc release that someone went back and redid all the textures and models in. I'm not saying they have to port everything to rage/euphoria, just replace the cars with better models like we all did manually with mods. Modern computers can handle that same engine with a lot more stuff thrown in I imagine.

I like that GTA4 and 5 are using the same general areas as 3 and San Andreas, but I don't just want Rockstar to keep essentially remaking the same 3 games. I want them to literally remake the same 3 games too :)

Well that's what I'm saying, of course it looks as good as it ever did, just like Super Mario Brothers looks as good as it ever did. I'm just saying that if there were a market for it, they could make some money updating the graphics while keeping everything else the same. It's no different than companies releasing Street Fighter 2 with the redone animations. I really liked that Bionic Command rearmed, and that was something they completely redid the graphics in a 3D engine, but kept the gameplay the exact same so it still felt 2D. This rerelease is good for people who never played the originals, but how many people have GTA3 and Vice City for consoles or PC and don't see a need to repay for the same game but on a system you have to keep poking the screen? I'd be interested to know if a lot of people would rebuy the game on pc/consoles if they did nothing at all but update the graphics. The problem a lot of old 8 and 16 bit games have is even with updated graphics the gameplay or story mode aren't really deep enough to charge more than $10 for in today's competitive market, but I'd say the GTA ga

Chinatown Wars and TBoGT have had mission replay so far. It would seem it's a feature they've started with Chinatown Wars and included in TBoGT.

That's true but that's because they were still in development. Not in a trailer this close to release and of a game that was already released with the art "finalized", I think.

Are you joking? Vice City is 10 years old. You get that suit on like the third mission of the game. I don't see any reason for them to replace game assets for a trailer of a game having its 10th anniversary celebration.

They didn't bother with it in the port of GTA3 so I wouldn't get any hopes up for it this time around!

Yeah, of course there is a market, I already posted about it. The original pc releases of Vice City and what not are not compatible with many modern controllers with analog triggers and what not or require a retarded amount of fiddling around to get them to work. If they re-released Vice City with these updates they've done and basic 360 controller support to something I actually own and would want to play games on (my PC) at a reasonable price $35-$25, then i'd buy that poo poo in a heartbeat.

Will they do it? Sadly probably not.

Driving and running around was fine, but shooting basically required 3-4 thumbs (one to move, one to aim, one for the camera and another for the shoot button) so it was pretty annoying. I never played it enough to get used to it, but I'm sure some people did just fine.

How popular is playing PC games with a controller, anyway. I know about it, and a lot of people here do it, but SA obviously isn't really indicative of the entire game-playing public.

I thought the controls were about as good as you can expect being on a touchscreen. It was okay until you got into some of the gunfights, where it just becomes frustrating.

I played the poo poo out of it. Somehow, I made it through all the missions with only dieing like a lifetime of 5 or 6 times. No idea how I pulled that off because the aiming was always hosed up, I think I adapted and used a car alot and was more concerned with gaining cover first.

I used the analog to drive for a while, but after 4 or 5 missions went to the D-pad steering. It was more predictable.

e: Also, thanks to that trailer I am now looking up Wave 103 songs.

IV and LatD had mission replay as well. The problem was that IV never used checkpoints. LatD actually had checkpoints, but I died in that game way less than I did in Ballad, so I only know of a couple of missions that have them.

You know what the thing about mission checkpoints in GTA IV that really bugs me? Why I don't think they're present. If you play Ballad, you'll fine one little quirk with the checkpoint system. The checkpoints will always bring you back to the time when you started the mission. So, you can have a mission that began at 8 AM, took eight in game hours, but if you have to bounce back to a checkpoint towards the end of the mission, it will go back to being 8 AM. I really wonder if they didn't have checkpoints in GTA IV because of that little quirk, and then just decided it was worth the trade-off of immersion when it came for the DLC.

I really hope that GTA V just goes to a reload screen if you gently caress something up, get busted, or die in a mission. Hell, I'm okay with them eliminating the whole tradition of spawning outside of a hospital or police station if you're wasted or busted since autosave ruined any sort of gameplay value those things ever had.

It would pop up your phone after you fail a mission asking if you would like to replay it. The episodes only added mid-mission checkpoints.


edit: oooohhh, he meant playing a mission after you beat it. I didn't even realize BoGT added that.

So, GTA4 modding question...

I installed the iCEnhancer mod thing to make everything look super good, but am realizing I don't really NEED it installed, and the older version of Rockstar Social Club is kind of annoying since it runs. All the time. What is the quickest and easiest way to reset GTA4 back to normal without losing my save? I've been playing for about 19 hours and don't want to lose it.

And another modding question, are there any mods that deal with car handling? I know the handling debate took place a couple pages back, but any links would be cool.

Just reinstall the game and emptythe folder, this won't remove your saves.
