Gta 3 Miss Liberty Mod...
« on: August 09, 2005, 01:38:00 PM »

Ok, I know this is a GTA 3 question but I was wondering  if someonce could help me out...

   I downloaded the Miss Liberty mod for GTA 3, and decided to install it on my Xbox.  The mod was originally for the PC GTA 3.  The mod had 5 .dff files which I installed in the gta3.img.
   Then there three files an .ide, an .ipl, and a .col file.  I put all these files in the data/maps/ directory.  Then I added their reference lines for the 3 above files in the gta3.dat.  After that I opened the .TXD that came with the mod.  I opened it up in TXD workshop, compressed and then saved.  
   Next, I opened the .TXD in RWanalyze and converted all the textures to xbox format.  I finally put the .TXD in the gta3.img, deleted the GTA3_FINAL_CAP or whatever it is called. I transfered all the files to my xbox and the game loaded fine.  I got in a boat and started traveling towards Miss Liberty which I could see in the distance.  As I got closer Textures began to appear on Miss Liberty and when I was about 300 feet away, the game froze... :angry:

Now, I did everything properly, but maybe I didn't.  I can think of a few things that may be wrong.  
I may have forgotten to compress and convert all the textures to xbox format.

The miss Liberty model may have too many polygons for the xbox to handel, and causes the xbox to freeze.  I don't think so, though because then the game would most likely just lag a lot.

The collision file of miss liberty may be in compatible with the xbox version  of GTA 3...could be...

Or...The GTA 3 PC version had a TXD.img.  And Miss liberty readme asks to put the missliberty.txd in TXD.img.  The xbox GTA 3 only has a gta3.img where the .txds and .dffs are both located.  I put the missliberty.txd in there.

Please help me get this to work and I will happily distribute all the premodified files for the xbox to get this mod to work(only the ones that are legal).  Thanks!!! :)

I tried installing the mod all over again with a clean copy of the mod and GTA 3.  It still froze when I got close to the statue.  I guess there must be something wrong with it...

Oh well, If anybody ever gets this to work please tell me.  Maybe someone has a tutorial for GTA 3 how to install map add-ons, such as the Miss liberty mod.

Thanks!
