Vice City PC: Best Ever Mod HERE!!!

OK, after my comment in this thread last night...i spent over an hour and a half just driving round in some of the various cars, like the DeLorean, Evo VII and WRX Sti, so much fun! 😀

Get back up the top so others can see it!!


Confused
 
Says in the readme to make sure your Vice City folder ain't set to read only or it maynot install right. Its set to read only by default(at least mine was).
 
yea so was mine and prob. everyone elses...but dont worry about it...it will install just fine...least one mine it did and i left it read only

Can you answer the above, and can you tell me what sort of frame rate hits we`d be looking at?
 
All but a handful of cars are replaced with the modded cars. The Faggio, Pizza Boy and a few others remain unchanged. I can't remember which. Also, the Diablo gang car from GTAIII has been inserted.

Frame rates remain about the same for me as far as I can tell, but textures are sometimes missing and catch up after a few seconds of the scene becoming visible. Sometimes it is just fine though.

One person on the forum link at the top of this thread mentioned that if you play in Win98/Win ME compatibility (under WinXP of course), the problems go away. He also said you could turn OFF the frame limiter. I did all that and it was a disaster. I still need to try just the Win98/WinME compatibility without turning off the frame limiter.
 
I DLed it and tryed it, and it seemed to work at first, but when i was going down the main stretch of road on the mainland, the bridge that leads to the golf course was gone, and then the game crashed, so i re-installed VC. And yes, i have the update for it.
 
w000t!!

All the cars that I won't have the chance to drive (for now 😛) It's a holy automobile wet dream !!
 
Wow, I just installed Vice City a few days ago.Now this will add something over the PS2 version. Great Work!
 
Ive re-installed it and it works ok. But after about 20minutes of play, the game has trouble keeping up with me, and so textures arnt loaded. The same problem that some people have with disabling the Frame Limiter.

Leave the frame limiter enabled then?? 😉

I get it trying to load textures after playing for a while, but just sit still for a few seconds and it will load in (*me hugs RAID0 with 2x 80gb Western Digital 7200RPM 8MB drives*)

Confused, i think you are a little confused about what i ment.
When i use the mod, i get the same texture loading problem that some people have with the Frame Limiter off, with it on. I always leave it on.
