Great! When it's going to release?

I'm looking forward, do you watch discussion on Mafia.czech-games.net? It's ONLY CZ/SK discussion place, that is active.

Like I said earliear. Story and atmosphere is GENIAL! But technical things are very annoying.




Why don't you joined someone to team? You could do storyline and scripting and somebody else can do modeling,




Second thing, bugs: How can I completely kill all the people in bar, including Morello and my buddies, and game continue running, like everything is OK? :cheer:

I have that scenes 80% done. Have to convert also some models.

Like I said Cole. You have to rip and convert also scene2.bin, tree.klz and road.bin of Countryside from Playstation 2 version.

I was also trying to convert whole mission from PS2 version, so Djbozkozs uploaded it for me, as I remember.




There are only scene.4DS files there, you have to convert  rest of the mission.

"Salieri died in age 120 for AIDS" ... f*ck whole that article... bullshits...

WTF is this shit? He was killed at the end of the game. Fixed.

Oh, sorry.




Source maps are also in BSP, have you tried it by this way?

And are you able to convert at least some 4DS files? I want scene.4ds files from missions TRAT09-12.

I wish I could port that missions from PS2 version of the game  <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad.png" alt="" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">




EDIT: OH SHIT!!! I copied DTA files from PS2 version of the game to Mafia folder and it works!!!! OG MY GOD!




EDIT2: 4ds files don't work ><img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad.png" alt="" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> Most important feature    Playable parts have only about 600MB. All cutscenes are stored as a pre-rendered videos and they have 2,8GB  

Yes, Kirov also wrote Tutorial for that.

PS2 version is catastrophic!




I only like racing there. It's AMAZING, especially new racing tracks at new locations like barn shortcut or mountain road.

You probably don't understand structure of Mafia. Mafia don't uses GTA concept with streamig, in Mafia, there are separated scenes for every mission part (And this is the reason, why Mafia isn't suitable for sandbox styled mods).


 




If you were talking ONLY about city scenes, then it's all about the graphics. For sure, there is draw distance, far clipping range and LOD's, but when you are loading city, all objects are loaded AT ONCE. So, Lost Heaven isn't chopped for sectors etc., it have only graphic optimalization. Whole city is one big map.

There's no need to extract files. If some "original" file isn't in folder, Mafia will load it from DTA file. It's because Stream commands are for OGG files, not for WAV files.




I don't know, from where this myth comes, but it's true, when you for example want taxi00.4DS and you don't have extracted it, it doesn't mind. ONLY problem is with City Musics, because city musics aren't stored in sounds/music in DTA file, but extractor is placing it there.




But I don't mean only sound issue... For example, I tried to hit morello and I thought, that I'll be dead in 2 seconds, but nothing happened.




Commision mod have great atmosphere, but modding in team (At least two poepole) is much more funnier, I am doing model jobs, details like briefings, intermezzos and Samo does action part, cutscenes and scripting works like that. And there are more opinions to recognize and fix bugs. It's not shame to share pride for work with somebody,
