[SA-PS2] Spawning quadbike makes the game crash

23 Ago 2020, 18:42

Hi, I got this issue with the PAL and NTSC version of SA, the thing is, when I add a numerous custom files of peds (skins) and/or WEAPONS, the quadbike doesn't spawn, the game crashes, even if I DON'T touch it's files (quad.txd and quad.dff).
I get this problem only with this vehicle, I noticed from a CarSpawner that I ported and the PTMG car spawner, the result is the same, the game crashes when I attempt to spawn it. I post this here for two reasons:
1 - This is very annoying because I got hundreds of files converted and perfectly working but I had this problem only with the quadbike.
2 - I want to know if there is any solution and/or if anyone here has the same problem, I would like see your comments about this, thanks.

Hi, well i got this issue with the PAL and NTSC version of SA, the thing is, when i add a numerous custom files of PEDS (skins) and/or WEAPONS, the quadbike won't to spawn, the game crash, even if i NOT touch the files (quad.txd and quad.dff) i got this "error" only for this vehicle, i noticed from a CarSpawner that i port and the PTMG carspawner, the result is the same, the game crash when the quad attemp to spawn, i post this here for two reasons, 1- This is very annoying because i got hundreds of file converted and perfectly working but i had this problem whith the quadbike, and 2- i want to know if there any solution and/or if anyone here experiments the same problem, i'll like see your comments about this, thx

Hellouder!I have finally figured out the reason for this error:

It turns out that, among all the files that I ALWAYS installed in my GTA, there was a "python.ifp", an animation that changed the reload of the Desert Eagle to that of a Revolver.

However, this animation worked perfectly within the game, just as it should be expected, without causing any kind of crash or anything like that.

But the funny thing is that this animation, within the GTA3.IMG file order, is just BEFORE the "quad.ifp" animation which is the one used for the quadbike.

Somehow, this animation (python.ifp) had some kind of conflict with the "quad.ifp" animation, making the animation unable to load, or corrupted, making it impossible to spawn the quad.

Something similar happens with other animations, which seem to be "incompatible", with an animation "uzi.ifp" the exact same thing happened.

The animation "uzi.ifp" worked perfectly within the game, but this caused a conflict with the animation "van.ifp" causing that ALL the vehicles that used this same one, have the same problem that with the quad, they refused to spawn, and they caused a softlock in the game.

Imagem

I solved this by replacing the files with the original animations again, but I was still intrigued by knowing why exactly those animations were "incompatible"
Well, anyway, I hope this helps many of the same things that happened to me, literally I have been with this problem without knowing what it was, until this week, I hope this has been useful, and I can finally bookmark the post as SOLVED, thank you all very much :)
