FIXES

MAP
Hundreds of map fixes such as objects or plants clipping underground or floating in
the air.
Missing textures from models.

Misplaced textures in models and leftover shadows from the Beta
Misplaced models and collisions causing peds and player clipping throw them or
visual errors.

Now every texture has manually added mipmaps including vehicles and peds so the
game visuals are as smooth as possible
Restored unused objects and houses inside the game files
VC police station interior would no longer give 2 stars level wanted after go outside.
Peds with missing textures have been reworked

ANIMATIONS
Running and idles animations both from Player and Peds have been improved with
less bone clipping and glitchy looking models.

Failed carjacking animations from San Andreas, get in roofless car, and running
animation from VC Stories have been ported

MISSIONS
Most of the fixes are made by Updated SCM with some new additions like
better camera angles during some in-game cutscenes and avoid followers from
being stuck behind walls.
Spelling mistakes and unclear mission instructions.

SOUND
Better SFX and Radio audio quality
Cutscenes audio errors have been fixed and out of sync audios have been sync

GRAPHICS / VISUALS

Increased LOD draw distance while keeping fog for better sensation of depth.
Tho is possible to increase the distance of High quality models this adds instability to the game engine and can cause glitches across the map.




3D grass manually placed across the map and overall improved vegetation.
Includes mipmaps and smooth transparency.




Visible interiors.
Interiors which only have a black void at the door now have a accurate visual depiction of whats inside improving the inmersion.




PS2 trails/visuals restored.
Brings back the original PS2 colors and brightness to the game making it looks more vibrant and alive than the bland PC visuals. This option can be disabled in the game settings since the motion blur effect can be annoying to some people.




Artwork based resigns and cutscenes quality models for In-game character models.





Improved weapons models and gas grenades have been restored from PS2.





A mix of Xbox, PC and PS2 particles while adding new details.









Iconic locations have been expanded and the level of detail across the map have been increased with more vegetation and props also fixing misplaced textures and model mistakes.

HUD / UI

HD hud with added gta sa like waypoint system and interactive Pause Menu Map while keeping the original aesthetic with new icons designs.

VEHICLES

Now every car has a unique wheel design and Beta car designs are back with some tweaks to make them even closer to their Real Life counterparts. Cars which were only faster versions of cars already in the game or reused from GTA III have been replaced with new lore friendly models. The number of colors each vehicle can have has been expanded with new colors and combinations. Some Handling related bugs had been solved and no longer explode while upside down. Also misplaced coronas

GAMEPLAY

Reviced Intention never was made a Remaster, that's why I took liberties with some of the gameplay aspects, always keeping in mind made it smoother and less tedious for modern standards without losing that Old game feeling.

• Infinite Sprint is now available by default for making movement on foot for long distances less tedious, this comes with a reduced speed for Tommy’s sprint for Mission and gameplay balance. With this change complete the Paramedic Mission now increases your Max health 50% just like Pizza Boy. Also this includes 2 handed weapons and Chainsaw / Flamethrower sprint.
  
  
  
• A wardrobe is now available in the Hotel and Mansion.
  
  
  
• Tommy would slowly regenerate health up to 50 points, this was made to avoid unfair deaths for lacking a way of restoring health near the player location.
  
  
  
• Water Respawn has been added, the ability to swim seems like the obvious solution but VC map is not designed for this feature which would make the Player get stuck in most occasions, this is a more practical solution.
  
  
  
• Now is possible to Skip calls and most Unskippable cutscenes.
  
  
  
• The Wanted System has some tweaks making roadblocks appear since 2th Star, making the AI harder while more Stars the player have, even including a 7th Star for the chaos lovers.
  
  
  
• Radio movement works on both sides.
  
  
  
• Mouse Speed is reduced while aiming for more precision, also including a subtle camera shake depending on the weapon power for better gunplay feeling.
  
  
  
• Most missions have their money reward changed, making the story progression a lot smoother and completely deleting the annoying grind for artificially increasing the game duration. Also making side missions both from characters and from vehicles more useful.
  
  
  
• Missions with annoying loops had received tweaks to make them bearable.
  
  
  
• The timer in some missions has been extended and in some others tightened to keep it an important but not annoying gimmick of the mission.
  
  
  
• Missions with forced Wanted Level lose the stars if the player loses the mission.
  
  
  
• “HESOYAM / INEEDSOMEHELP” Cheat variant had been added now is “THEWORLDISYOURS”
  
  
  
• The health of the Player vehicle during PARAMEDIC, TAXI, VIGILANTE and FIREFIGHTER side jobs had increased.

Having trouble getting the game to run?

if your game exe only can be seen in the Task Manager then try right clicking the game exe inside the game folder, enable “Run in 640 x 480 screen resolution” run the game, close it and then disable “Run in 640 x 480 screen resolution ” now you can run the game normally without doing this again



Your old save files won’t work in Reviced! The Main.scm script has been heavily edited!

Now the save files are located in the userfiles folder inside the game folder.

In some cases running the game from Steam can cause worse performance!

Reviced smoother gameplay made the phone call glitch more likely to happen, so wait a few seconds before going inside a mission marker during your first hours.

Start a New Game after loading a save cause the game to Crash, can't fix for now.

does anyone else get fps drops when being chased by the cops?

[Gnome_l0ver]

Do orginal skins from vc will work on this?

[Ricco]

This mod is just great! but I don't like that some options are missing. such as the ability to change the control type from "classic" to "standard". I use the classics, because in these cases, the camera is attached to Tommy's shoulder, and it centers automatically. this is very convenient because I play with one hand and cannot use the mouse and keyboard at the same time. also, the endless sprint devalues the mission of the medic and the animation of running from SA looks rather strange. in the version of the mod that I downloaded, for some reason, some aspects have been changed. maybe you can share the link with me. thanks

[Retard]

how do i increase the mouse aiming sensitivity?

[Le_Marginal]

I advise installing the following mods:

MssEax: https://www.mixmods.com.br/2022/01/iii-vc-eax-alchemy-fix/

it will remove bugs in sounds

And

RunDLL32.exe Fix + GameUX.dll Fix :
https://www.mixmods.com.br/2020/10/rundll32-exe-fix-gameux-dll-fix-corrigir-jogo-nao-abrindo/

after this mod my friezes decreased and crashes stopped

[CHASKOH]

Also I would probably suggest adding something for reloading manually perhaps...

[CHASKOH]

Sent a friend request, so I can apparently get a invite link? I think? Sorry if it seemed sketchy, I probably went about this wrong. @Joloonka

[ginx2666]

@pekatvdmitriypekar It's bugged to hell and back - I've been getting the same crash in the same place after months of trying. I download a release from google doc's link, launch the game, don't change a SINGLE THING in options, and it always crashes at the very end of The Party with unhandled exception at 10bc5db. I don't even know where to report it, since everything is so hushhush with this modpack, to the point that gtaforums just remove any mentions of it.

[Berry]

I don't get why make some changes like to make Infinite Sprint by default and some others, isn't this supposed to make the vanilla game experience better? This seems like bad decision just to please people who doesn't have any patience or care for the original game.

[HoodRixh]

Did someone manage to run the mod on a steam deck? if yes can you dm me either some help? thanks in advance!
