As it says in its help text, you can't open fstyle.sty in STYed, and it will error out any file you try to open after too if you do that. That's the only way such an error happens for me.


If needed, fstyle can be edited in newer versions of my gta2 sty tool (the one published in january on ...

bil.sty, ste.sty, wil.sty or a custom one edited from these.

This has the very basics, should get you started: https://en.wikigta.org/wiki/Main_script_(GTA2)
There's further tutorials with basic info in that wiki, it talks about the original compiler in one of them, but I use ScriptPad to edit and quickly compile.
The page about .mmp is relevant for being ...

1. GIVE_WEAPON (vehicle_name_here, WEAPON_HERE) Only standard vehicle weapons from the garage shops work, if you give a turret to vehicle that doesn't normally have it game will crash when you try to fire it.
2. SET_CAR_BULLETPROOF (vehicle_name_here, ON)
SET_CAR_FLAMEPROOF (vehicle_name_here, ON ...

For some reason generator respawn delays in-game only take 1/4th the numbers of cycles you input in the script if you make min and max value the same, while if it's different it'll be a properly random time in-between (in SP it will always take the same amount of time for first spawn). Somehow I don ...

Bus stops only spawn Buses at Z 1 or 2, not any height above that. No slopes should be on the road in-between the stop and the Bus spawn or on the stop itself.

In addition, having any solid tile at any height above the bus stop or the road in-between the bus stop and the Bus spawn will cause buses ...

Nice analysis, I have some of my own observations.

I'd add the Sunnyside asylum and the church as interesting locations in Downtown. The asylum is nicely detailed and a p. distinct location. The church is the biggest and most detailed of any of the districts. For Residential I'd also add The ...

odg, you taken a look at this yet https://github.com/codenamecpp/carnage3d ? It's similar to what you're doing, but focused on GTA 1, might be helpful.

Was testing some stuff and I made some observations on general AI behavior that is exclusive to natural spawns and can't be done via scripting:

Roadblock cops will always fire their pistol at you when you're in a car, regardless of how close they are to your door, they will pursue and try to punch ...

~19 years after this mod's release there's finally a proper English translation for it, made by Hippo Cat: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1pEQL9wYv9dJwdMHsz5jC4mdqEITxDMyz/view

He also made a map for it: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GD67FtdVjYKFDGcP5sh37CDpvrb-CAYn/view

And here's his full ...

If anyone's interested - as part of a larger project I'm working on, I put TM's decompiler code into a git repository, made a few small changes, and I've got it to compile successfully on Linux. My changes are mainly to make it more portable and add support for a build system.

See here: https ...

I wish I had known about B-Shep's fork of Tile Selektor before.

Tested in Arch Linux, using the Proton fork of Wine from the AUR, ver 4.11-415.

Map editor works, default maps and sty files appear to load with no problems, but my map with a modified sty has given me issues much like it did in past Windows installs. Works on first launch when it first asks for a ...

Looks very promising.

I don't play UT4, but I can always appreciate a good homage, well done.

a secret area packed full of ammo and power ups and the "redeemer" ( a giant rocket launcher ) that triggers the "kill frenzy" sound clip when you enter it.
Ha, nice, I like that, sounds fitting.

Also, personally, while I ...

Cool observation!

When that command deletes Futuro FM, it isn't available for the Zaibatsu Z-Type any more. Are you sure Lithium FM becomes the new default for the car after that? Are you sure it's random if the 'correct' radio station is not available? It might simply default to the first defined ...

I tested some stuff and from what I've seen, gangs cars will have certain radios as default if they're available in the map, e.g. Z-type has Futuro FM as default, Dementia has Lithium FM, etc. And if their respective radio stations aren't available, they will just play a random one. But, when you ...

I forgot about the tuning we did for GTA2 Map Editor. Have you used Sektor's tile picker? It's a tool window you can float over the top of the editor, or place on a separate screen. Tile Selektor we ended up calling it.

Cool to see GTA2 and these tools being used creatively.

I actually did, just ...

I like it. If I was doing that, I would get bored editing manually and would end up writing an automated image converter but it wouldn't be as good.

Glad you like it. And a GTA 2 car mosaic image converter would be quite an interesting thing.

Epic! :D
Did you use Epic GTA2 Map Editor and mini ...
