for the 1IQ people who dont have the new skins appearing in game and their only course of action is to act like literal crybabies:
TOGGLE EDIT MODE IN OPENIV BEFORE DRAGGING AND DROPPING THE FILES INTO COMPONENT PEDS, LOCATED IN PC/CDIMAGES/MODELS
The rar contains the edited files, which I have had to double check myself after reading all of the whining and was confused to see your reaction to failing a drag and drop was blaming the guy who did the mod.
Man you people make youtube comment sections look like nobel prize winners.
It seems many people still dont know they have to activate "edit mode" when they want to install a mod with Open IV. And also some dont know how to use search bar neither . So i decide to try writing a better install guide for those.
Step 1: Download the Mod Step 2: Extract the files Step 3: Open Spark IV or Open IV ( click edit button if you gonna use open iv ) Step 4: Locate Component.img file and open it. Step 5: Make a back up of the component.img Step 6 : Open my mod files folder and drag the 30 files in component.img folder and paste them in the program. Step 7: Make a back up your pedprops.img file then open it with tool you chose and then open my mod files. Step 8: Then drag those 20 files in to your pedprops you opened before with the tool. Step 9: Go to your gta 4 folder and then make a back up your "Common/Data" folder. Step 10: Go to my mod files and then open my "Common-data" folder. Copy those 5 files and paste in your common/data and replace them.
The Mod works perfectly fine. Dont mind some people complaining about not working. I have a discord server full of modders and many of them playing the mod and it works for all of them.
If you dont mind me asking where did you learn how to start editing the data files? Did you find a youtube vid or guide or was it mostly trial and error from the jump?
i was editing those files over many years then suddenly one day i said what would happen if i move those npcs from one group to other and fill that group with gang members instead and it worked as soon as i also edit the other necessary files . It didnt take many testing neither
alright it does work but is there anyway to make the gang peds more agressive like on Potencial Grimm that as soon as they see me they start taunting me ?
Did you follow the all steps brother? It should have retextured npcs because many of my friends downloaded and they confirmed that its working. Also that popycycle file is very important for my mod because i added new gangs via editing that file . You can make a back up of yours and try mine to see the changes .
Hello, I am using OpenIV, but most of the npcs are missing and most of the bloods crips jamaica characters are not there either. Are the files faulty or am I making a mistake? There is only 1 skin in 2 crips in bloods and I don't use Spark, I don't know how to download or install it, can you help me?
Brothers , i think you guys forgetting to press "edit" button on open ıv , the files are there. Many of my friends have the mod downloaded from this site and they all tested, my server members also downloaded from here and it works for them as well.
You can also edit the relationships file so that every gang hates one another so there will be more shootouts between gang members... I did that once and experienced a highway shootout. I also increase the population so it caused a traffic jam
Yeah i could but i decided not to do that because i used those mods before and they are not realistic like mine. I dont want ww3 type of stuff on the streets , i want more like san andreas or gta 5 type of gang activity instead.
Alguem sabe me dizer se o mod funciona nas DLC ? E se caso funcionar eu preciso colocar os arquivos nas pastas models das DLCS ? OBS adorei o mod e tenho me divertido bastante, muito obrigado ao criador ficou top
Can anyone tell me if the mod works in the DLC?And if it works, do I need to put the files in the DLCS models folders? OBS I loved the mod and I had a lot of fun, thank you very much to the creator it was great
I don't know, my game seems to have more gangs, but the gang clothes look the same to me. No gangs match your post. however, they are more active. He just didn't change his clothes. I used the OpenIV APP
Found an error in Relationships.dat Line 50, Koreans are listed as hating "CGANG_ALBANIAN" instead of "GANG_ALBANIAN" Not sure if that actually matters but figured I'd point it out. Also it seems skinheads were not properly included. I looked through all the .wdd files in OpenIV and there are no skinhead assets at all unless I missed something.
Also spawning seems to be a little weird. Sometimes they spawn normally, other times it seems like no gangsters are spawning in an area at all. Seems to happen often in Blood territory, I saw two bloods when I came into Presidents City but I didn't see a single one after that even despite walking around that same area for 20 minutes. Northwood projects are never packed with gangsters anymore like they are in vanilla. Could this be caused by accessing Algonquin early with cheats?
Brother thanks for your attention for the mod and mod files . The first one seems needs to be corrected true but it somehow works still. And when it comes to skinheads i just add few tattoos and skinhead patches on their jackets and thats all, it aint too obvious like others. And spawning is weird because these new gangs either spawn as a popycyle group or as gang members. So areas like president city has big population and thus they have too many options to spawn each time. And areas like northwood same as well. There are gang members there but maybe the game slows down after moving between north holland, east holland and northwood since these three areas has very different poplulations and gang control.
Okay thanks for the clarification, I figured I might've just missed something for the skinheads since I'm not very experienced. Also thanks for enlightening me a bit on the NPC spawning.
Do you know of a trainer that changes player alignment along with model? I'm using Zolika trainer and changing model doesn't affect alignment. Wanted to fill up a blue minivan with some crips and roll on some bloods but realized they wouldn't shoot at me despite the blue getup.
simple native trainer/first menu and then go to relationships and change player to korean if you want to be crips , albanian for bloods , jamaican for trinitarios angels for the skinheads . This way they ll react to you like a gang member and enemy and they ll try their best to eliminate you at the spot
Thanks gangsta and thank you for the mod as well. Very swag. Already witnessed a few gang skirmishes. I would love to see one with the in-universe gangs like you were talkin about!
