random findings; back in the day, I was testing random things on a daily basis

The traffic lights on cars were not introduced by VC:MP or something.
This must be the Vice City engine itself.

To change the resolution of your game, you must enter the Vice City game, and change it once the menu opens.
You can also get use of the windowed mode of VC:MP by using "/setconfig game_windowed 1" and then restart game.

When is this opening for public?
Good luck with it! Looks good!

Though, I just got an idea of how to attach a neon to the car, for good.
It might work.

But, by the 'design' of the approach, it's not something u can use in a public server. It's just an insane idea and most probably buggy xd
Maybe I will try it this wk, just for the lol, and record a video of it.

They are totally traffic lights. First time I've discovered them I was hoping to find even more haha... but nah, that's pretty much it.
There is one more small black sphere which we can use, but idk exactly what would be the use for it in Vice City.

As for the neon object.. well.. you need to attach it to the vehicle so they will get synced together.
There is no such function yet, so all you can do is set a timer to be called 500ms maybe; but that looks bad.
(I've already tried it)

The neon object is all about the 2dfx lighting and shadowing. Nothing hard to do.
We just need a function like attachObjectToVehicle.

PS: These lights can also be bought in #TomorrowLand in the tuning garage

Oh, true. Will look into it and come with an update once I'm home.
Thanks.

+announce plugin from late of 2021 (which has a fallback in case the main master url is not working)



Some antivirus softwares may find this .exe as dangerous, but they are not.
They are false positive, so you can use them freely.


Also, since the squirrel plugin got no updates yet, the new features are not yet available.
@[R3V]Kelvin created a plugin which you can use for now! Try it out:

Woah! This is big!

Haha, that's pretty cool!

I cant seem to download this. is the file not available anymore?

I'm still able to download it... the only issue it is considered dangerous because http and not https.

I've decided to release my custom drifting particles, as maybe somebody will find them good looking

To install them, you have to go to gtavc/data/particles.cfg and use these lines instead of original:
