PC mods

TimBud · July 19, 2009

Its taken quite a while for some decent stuff to start appearing for GTAIV PC. Especially as there is no 'img tool' equivalent (yet).

A week or so ago some clever bugger (Oleg, of ZModeler fame) has released a ZModeler2 WFT filter. When used alongside ZModeler its possible to export GTAIV models and people have already started to fiddle with the tool. Its still in beta stage atm so it can produce some unstable effects, although it won't be too long before a more stable version is available.

Vehicle mods are what most players have been waiting for, and its certainly what I enjoyed playing with most on previous PC versions.

Take a look at whats available already

There's loads more at GTAGaming.com:

All the vehicle mods are here

Weapon mods here

Player mods here

Script mods here

Miscellaneous mods here

TOOLS here

Update 1:

ZModeler2 WFT filter update released, Available through ZMAutoUpdate.

The new filter will allow mod authors to create proper mesh deformation using specific shader names (ie full damage like the GTAIV stock cars is now possible.

Perhaps he/you edited it but I see the pics.

Nope all I see is white boxes with red crosses

Edit:

Just tried all 4 of my browsers (IE, FF, Chrome and Safari and none of them display the pics

Just to say that I can't see pictures either. Won't be downloading mods for my GTA IV. The cars in it are awesome already :P.

TimBud · July 19, 2009

Pics should be working again now. :)

I always loved the GTA vehicle mods because it gave the chance to use real world cars in game. Made it even more fun for me.

iBilo · July 19, 2009

Still can't see them btw. =P

Nodz86 · July 19, 2009

me neither, lol

TimBud · July 19, 2009

Thats really quite anoying! :(

oh well, have removed the 'img' tags so at least you'll be able to click the links

TDU 505 · July 19, 2009

Hahaha not working again, but remove everything AFTER the XXXX.jpg

TimBud · July 19, 2009

You can't even see the links?

I tried removing the bit after the .jpg but still didn't work with img tags

TDU 505 · July 19, 2009

No no the links are fine, just remove the bit after jpg and you're set!

TimBud · July 19, 2009

Lets see this time. They're showing for me now... not too big i hope.

t. · July 19, 2009

Yep they show, but... I don't even wanna say it.

TimBud · July 19, 2009

say what. Is it the size, because the forum has resized them on my screen :)

Car Freak · July 19, 2009

I can see the pics fine.

As for the mods, I think they're amazing. One question though - will the damage be as advanced as the regular cars in the game?

t. · July 19, 2009

Yea Tim, the size is too big, even though it resizes the images I believe we're not allowed to post images wider that 800 pixels.

Anyway enough about the damn pics lol.

They do look amazing and having licensed vehicles in GTA really adds to the atmosphere for me.

Couple of things, like CarFreak said how's the damage? Secondly for the CCX do you know if the doors open on the vertical hinge? That would be very cool.

TimBud · July 19, 2009

Sack it!

I've done it the hard way so the pics should be a better size now ;)

As for the damage and doors, I'm not sure because I've seen no pics of either... on any vehicle.

So for now I doubt its been done yet.

But GTA modders are some of the best out their (from my past experience) so it is only a matter of time.

All my info is from GTAGaming.com as my laptop is nowhere near capable of playing GTAIV. So I haven't been able to try any of the mods. But I've tried ALL the old ones on all previous GTAs (3D).

The only game I'd by a better rig for is GTAIV and I can't justify that. ;)

Edit: added some more pics. An old vette and an M3 with working doors :)
