GTA V Radio HUD script


This mod was inspired by GTA V radio hud and will bring to IV and EFLC something similar.
It don't change the normal radios, it just gives a second choice to switch radios in game.

Known bugs:
1 - If you turn off radio (commonly X key) you can't bring it back using the mod, you need to use normal game radio station switcher to reactivate radio, after this you can use the mod again. 
2 - The Turn Off option will only reduce the radio volume.

Parachute IV

This is my Parachute script for GTA IV and TLaD (also TBoGT).

Basically it adds the ability to control the free fall and have a parachute to use almost like in TBoGT. The speeds are a little different, also the anims and sounds, but the result is very similar. A nice feature of this mod is the possibility to use guns while in parachute. When entering a helicopter you will automatically receive a parachute, like in GTA V.

In the map you will find some blips with text "Pb" where you can go to perform a parachute jump.


Download

If the parachute model don't appear you need to increase your detail/view distance in game graphics options, this model has a bug that makes this happen :)

Original description

GTA V Handling, or V-Handling for short is a mod for IV/EFLC which will make all your vehicles take much better turns and brake faster, just like in GTA V!
You will never float away in the corners with this mod :)

NEW: <a type="amzn" search="xbox 360">Xbox</a> control fixed. Added stuck on roof rolling (Press A/D to roll on wheels again)
Edit the ini file to suit your preferences, like cropper turns, faster braking or enable tap to reverse.

Press A+S+D at the same time to reload the ini file.

--- Install ---
*Place V-Handling.asi and VHandling.ini in your main GTA IV or EFLC directory (where EFLC.exe or GTA IV.exe is)
*If you dont have dsound.dll or scripthook.dll there from before, put those there aswell
*Modify the ini file to suit your needs
*Own the streets of Liberty City :)

Video: http://youtu.be/77ZectnpyQI

Note: This is not a handling.dat mod, and has no "real" GTA V handling files. I have reconstructed the feeling by using scripting.

[TUT] Scripthook installation - Manual setup - GTA iV

To manually install the ScriptHook we need to identify and copy some files.

First download the Scripthook + ASI loader here

Before start, make sure that you have installed:
Source: http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=392325


Let me explain how it works:

  1. ASI loader is loaded by game because game "thinks" that is a normal dsound.dll file
  2. ASI loader loads any file that is in GTAIV.exe folder that ends with .asi (extension .asi)
  3. The ScriptHookDotNet.asi is loaded by the ASI loader 
  4. ScriptHookDotNet.asi loads the ScriptHook.dll file
  5. ScriptHook.dll loads any .net.dll, .vb or .cs file that is inside the Scripts folder

Let's start with the ASI loader, in my mods its the file dsound.dll, it must be copied to GTAIV.exe file folder:


We must do the same with the following files: NAudio.dll, ScriptHook.dll, ScriptHookDotNet.asi, if your GTA have patch 1.0.4.0 or lower you need to copy the file ScriptHook.dll.4 instead of ScriptHook.dll and paste in GTAIV.exe folder and rename from ScriptHook.dll.4 to ScriptHook.dll:


Now we copy the Scripts folder from the ZIP and paste in GTAIV.exe folder:


If you run the game without administrator rights you may obtain an error message indicating the file asilog.txt, in this case you need to check if the file exists in your GTAIV.exe folder and create it if necessary using notepad for example.



Now let's test the ScriptHook, open the game, load an save game and when your character is on screen press ' or ~, a black window must appear, this indicates that the ScriptHook was loaded:


Done! Now you can drag to Scripts folder any .net script for GTA IV :)



Other mod files

Some mods like Dual wielding goes with files that must be added to .img game files using OpenIV or SparkIV, if it's a animation (.wad extension) it must be inserted in the anim.img file (anim\anim.img), if it's a weapon it must be inserted in the weapons.img (models\cdimages\weapons.img), if it's a ped it must be inserted in the componentpeds.img (models\cdimages\componentpeds.img), if it's a playerped.rpf file it must replace the playerped.rpf file (models\cdimages\playerped.rpf), always enable the Edit Mode before insert any file and do this with the game closed, you can export the original game files before to make backups.



Troubleshooting

  • My game don't load anymore
You probably have an issue with the ASI loader, remove the dsound.dll file from GTAIV.exe folder and see if the game opens again. Now try o find another ASI loader version, gtaforums is a good choice to search for this kind of file.
If you are running the game without admin rights maybe you will obtain an error message indicating that the file asilog.txt can't be created, in this case you can try to run the game as admin using right click or manually create the asilog.txt file and saving inside gtaiv.exe folder 

  • My game crash at loading screen
This is probably related to wrong ScriptHook.dll version, make sure that you choose the right ScriptHook based in your  patch version.

  • Black window don't appear 
ScriptHook or ASI loader failed in the startup, try other ScriptHook or ASI loader versions

  •  The mod menu don't appear when i press Insert
This can be a issue with the ScriptHook version, send to me the ScriptHook.log file :)

[TUT] Camera control

My knowledge about camera is limited, i will show in this tutorial what i know about cameras in GTA IV.

Download the source code used here (mirror)

First of all we have direct access to the actual active camera using the following object:

Game.CurrentCamera

With this object we can obtain useful info about actual active camera:



Other way to obtain access to actual game camera is using this object:

Game.DefaultCamera

The problem with this object is that it disappear (= nothing) when an ped is set as targeted by player when player is unarmed, so, if you want use this camera be careful and make the Exists(Game.DefaultCamera) check before use.

GET_GAME_CAM
This native method will return the game camera, very useful when we need to find the actual game camera doesn't matter if we have a gun or not:




Creating a camera

To create a camera we need an object of type camera and we need to create a new instance of it:



Now to see the view of this camera we need to Activate it:


To demonstrate some camera control let's create an free camera with keyboard control, when i press move keys the camera will move forward and backward, when i press + and - camera will zoom in and out and when i press left/right/up/down camera will change direction:


Basically what i'm changing here is Position, Rotation and FOV.

An interesting method to use is the LookAt, we can set the camera to look at a Ped, Object, Vehicle or a single position, when we set this we can't control the camera direction or rotation anymore:


To obtain control over Direction and Rotation again we need to call UNPOINT_CAM method:


Another cool method to use is the SET_CAM_SHAKE:


First param is the camera, we can shake the game camera too but before we need to call CAM_PROCESS and specify game.default camera as the param.

Second param seems to be the level of movement, from 1 to 8

Third param is the time in milliseconds, -1 will result in a shake of approximated 1 second

This is what you need to do to shake the game default camera:




Attaching a camera

We can attach camera using the following methods:

ATTACH_CAM_TO_OBJECT
ATTACH_CAM_TO_PED
ATTACH_CAM_TO_VEHICLE
ATTACH_CAM_TO_VIEWPORT

After attaching the camera we can set the offset from the attach point using this method:

SET_CAM_ATTACH_OFFSET

To make the attach be relative to the object we need to call this method:

SET_CAM_ATTACH_OFFSET_IS_RELATIVE

To remove the attach we use UNATTACH_CAM

Let's make an example of this attach, let's attach the camera to player current vehicle, if player aren't in a car let's attach the camera to him:


Now, in a tick we need to set the camera direction or rotation:



With some coding and imagination you can easily create a basic first person camera.
