Re: What is "wrong" with Downtown District?

Yeh, with custom made GTA2 we could have all three maps joined together.
And it would be one huge city.
There is lot of potential for coders for such game actually even if its so old.
Lots of fun stuff can be coded.

I wonder why they removed motocycles from GTA2. Poor handling / physics?

Re: GXT Editor

Hi. I have been busy with my life. I have to find the GXT Editor source I modified. There was a moment where I wanted to add Cyrillic support but I forgot it. If there is a demand, I can make it. GTA2 community is not very active. I have been working on my GTA2 projects but Im also doing other thing...

Re: GTA2 Definitive Edition mod progress

Nice stuff indeed. A bit offtopic. It's unlikely that R* or Take2 will release any sources. If you search on G00gle there is a huge amount of news how pissed off Take2 was when they saw the RE3 project. They took down github of this project, then latest news was that they want to sue the RE3 team me...

Re: DMA Design GTA2 development behind the scenes

Nice vid thanks.
Downloaded.

Haha., Colin MacDonald

Probably author of GTA2 Map format.doc

Because Office shows his details in this file.

CDS.doc is Keith Hamilton job.

Nice to see GTA1/GTA2 guys.

My most favorite game (GTA2). No kidding

Re: petition for GTA2 source code

Somebody deleted replies? Or you deleted? Or Sektor ? :roll: Btw what issues you have in Win10 with GTA2? I dont have any. Installed and it runs. So far I didnt have even a single PC or windows where GTA2 wouldn't run. Guess im lucky?! I have my brand new PC with W10 and the older PC with XP. 0 prob...

Re: Found PED (dummies) walking code in exe

I answer for second part at the moment because I'm busy at work. Why I reverse, because I love this game. We played GTA1 in computer class in early 2000. Because our teacher was nice guy and let us play games sometimes too. For me this was new world. It was very very interesting game. I didn't care ...

Re: petition for GTA2 source code

I will bump this thread, not without reason. Petitiononline is now closed his doors forever. Second: There was a pretty much "random" guy on twitter. Who just did a shotout @Microsoft. hey @Microsoft give me the source code to 3D Movie Maker. You released it in 1995 and I want to expand an...

Re: Found PED (dummies) walking code in exe

I dont think its complicated. Just move peds forward, check 1 block in advance, what it has. Is it wall, water, or road. If peds are running scared then they mostly do it randomly etc. In corners check what directions have pavements and if there are more than one choise, then choose random direction...

Found PED (dummies) walking code in exe

I decided to make new thread, maybe there is such thread already, then sorry. You can copy/paste there and delete this. My primary goal for 2 days (weekend) was to find out where is the code in exe that makes peds move. I wanted to find this thing for a long time. And after lots of work and jumping ...

Re: reversed code

Yeah, although I never played MP. 20 years or so back I wanted to play but internet provider had needed ports closed and couldn't play it. Currently im digging into archives to find different versions of GTA2 installers and other DMA design games. They help to get more useful info in exe's. I have f...

Re: reversed code

Just a idea We dont need to reverse 100% of GTA2 code. There is no point in recreating it in DirectX, Dx is complex, OpenGL is alot easier and gets even better GFX. IMHO Most important thing that make game live: 1) PED AI 2) CAR AI Pretty much it. We know how to render map. Very easy. Lighting also....

Rockstar should release GTA1-GTA2 sources finally.
But I doubt this will ever happen.

IMHO maybe you should first finish this one (win32) and then make JS.

Re: GTA2 Definitive Edition mod progress

Nice stuff.
So this is based on GTA5 engine completely?
This is closed source project or you make it completely public free?
So we can look inside?

Re: Epic GTA2 Script Decompiler (AKA SCR Decompiler)

Surprise surprise but im doing that for a while now.
Im working on different things at once.

Making code more readable in Ghidra etc..

I have many ideas how to find all the logic and stuff in GTA2 and call them in my code.

Its hard but everything is possible.
