They changed the system dramatically after SR2.. in SR2 they used the player type model with tricks to make new NPCs, off of presets of clothes/face/etc. Think like your FO3/NV experience. Then in SR3 they overhauled that part for speed, and the NPCs used specific pre-defined models only. It's a...

I'm with Corrodias, we need to extend this to a proper dll to extend functions. Something to say load our own lua on demand... or.. something I thought of that this might be the gateway into... loading our own files on demand. Say allowing the engine to extend its hardcoded loading to go look in...

Ever played a game with a fixed camera that may (or may not) pan about to move the character? Resident Evil comes to mind, the early ones, but a lot of games from that era do that. Where you have trouble seeing where you're going at times and can't properly see some things you really really need...

Part of the reason Steam is a lot cheaper is twofold. One, Steam charges a percentage of the sales, but it's not a big percentage. On the other hand, for a console, there's a set price for games, and Microsoft/Sony's cut is a fair bit bigger. Two, related to the cut size and all, console games...

What? No, no, I got that. I'm saying, the reason they DID THAT is because it seemed funny the big bad and cultured but also violent megomaniacal overlord.. would love the romance stories of Austen, over whatever else there is. Remember, someone or many someones at Volition designed his...

Yes... fly a helicopter. Yep. That's what he meant. Not alluding to the SR3 conversations that imply they had a one-night fling at all. It's a one-night flight, that's all. ;) It's the last audio that you collected, best I can tell, but it is annoying. Didn't they mention something about not...

Hm. Both cities (Steelport, Stilwater, maybe connected with a reconstructed Hughes Memorial Bridge) and a lot of area.. then throw in some sort of hood control thing, allowing people in part to make their own gangs. You'd have to figure a way to cleanly random gen stuff to do, without going to...

I have to admit though, I'm still not sure the fixation with Jane Austen. I assumed it was because she was a known writer of those romances, and it would be funny that the evil alien overlord Zinyak had a soft spot for that sort of thing as his sort of novel. Although, he's not the only one.. I...

The biggest problem is that while the console version is better.. the console version does not get mods. I mean, sure you get better framerates, but you lose out on Gentlemen of the Row. And Sandbox too. My suggestion is watch Steam and if the PC version drops below a really cheap rate (I'd say...

That would imply you're using the wrong asm_pc file for the str2_pc file you're repacking. Each asm_pc file only references a specific set of files, so the trick is to find which is the one you want for the str2_pc file you have.

That includes all pirates etc? Well, I guess we have a ways to go until the actual 2000 members. Still, almost at 1500 legit users! :D

I haven't tested, but I think when building GoS, you can drop the files from my mod into the MY_CUSTOM_SR3_MODS folder, and when you build the game it'll automatically update the asm file when you build the pack.

I don't really worry over the whole SR vs GTA comparison. It happens, but they're very different games by this point.. in fact, very different games than they started with for their own series. The companies have grown too behind them. I think there's lots of space on the internet to have both...

Huh, I did NOT know that. (The read-only flag, not the SR4 part, found that out shortly after) I did find a solution... I had to use absolute paths for EVERYTHING in the command-line, and odder still also wrapped in quotes (which is odd, because as you can see there's not a space to be seen in...

Yes, that is exactly it. He was more of a plot device. Unlike other characters he wasn't central, and didn't have staying power even through the one game. Julius however was central to the first game (as noted, I've never played, but know enough of the story to make some inferences), yet lived...

The problem isn't that developers will or won't want it. I mean, lots of developers love Steam, lots hate Steam, and lots are ambivalent or what have you. The problem is that very very few developers are the ones to ask. Sure the indie market is free to do as they want, but most larger games...

Actually, Sims started out having to be hacked and forced to load files. It did not want to, and there was a framework installed that specifically told it to use recursive directories to load mods from. It wasn't until later that EA built it into the game. Surprising, I know, that they did this...

Simple problem. When you make a game for linux.. it has to be made FOR linux. Well, ok, I should clarify. When you make a modern game, that's typically the result. There are ways to get at hardware that are platform-agnostic, but if you use windows, it's almost assured you're going to end up...

And then the censors come in, and ban the characters for 'drug use' or whatever. Still, I would LOVE to see a Volition cage match. I also suggest we give the audio devs dubstep guns. But only if the programmers get disintrgrators. I'd pay money for that DLC. :D Then after that, dunno. We...

To be fair, the Boss is a violent sociopath. Ever taken the sidewalk instead of road in your car because it's funnier? Ever gone and shot a number of peds in the head for a couple bucks? Or maybe used the giant foam hand to club them halfway across the map for laughs? Imagine that in real life...
