with realistic car names, and car mods.Originally Posted by Fugue
good point, don't want this thread closed.
back OT
Andrashi's mod, with a slightly tweaked camera and limited inventory would be my idea of a near perfect mod
with realistic gun sounds
with no hat able to on/off setting.
E: lol I just remembered that the "money for barber" is that job for Derek ant the port. :asd:
How would you make a realistic car mod?Arent they realistic enough?And we already have realistic car names mod.
And we already have a hat on/off setting.
Oh, sorry? didn't know.... I mean, like the cars' design isn't quite 100% authentic. Really that doesn't matter to me, would be just nice, ferrari, ford and chevrolet logos and authentic designs.
Ok, thanks for telling me, I'd install that hat on/off soon
Well of course the design isint 100% authentic,its a video game.Mafia 2 cars are about as realistic as it gets.Oh, sorry? didn't know.... I mean, like the cars' design isn't quite 100% authentic. Really that doesn't matter to me, would be just nice, ferrari, ford and chevrolet logos and authentic designs.

is because they aren't licensed.I mean, like the cars' design isn't quite 100% authentic.
No ☺☺☺☺ Sherlock... -.-
I know.. And if I want to drive authentic cars, I go play Gran Turismo 5. Like i said, really don't matter to me.
E: OFFTOPIC: All cut missions here:

Whats with all the sarcastic comments?
I give up :/
What do you mean?
Does anybody know/want to create a patch/mod
- that removes the shining effect of interact with objects (pick up the phone, open certain door...)
- that adds an in-car free look camera? I´m currently using an in-car camera with fixed view
- that makes your engine more durable, but not undestroyable. I love car destructions, but am not able to enjoy them long enough
Guys, some of the changes done in the Roth mod are just sort of "temporary". I have university stuff now, so no update for at least next two months. But if you ask what I want to mod in - heck, EVERYTHING!
Limited inventory - can be done via LUA, either a bit ineffective way via cascade of "if" commands or maybe by usage of "InventoryCanAddWeapon" command if it does what I think it does. If this suceeds, maximal carried ammunition is getting buffed back to three extra clips for each weapon.
Ammo loss when reloading - can be done using one extra variable and checking currently used gun via InventoryGetSelected command (I get it should return item ID or weapon ID of item in hands) and subtracting corresponding amount of ammunition on reload (question is how to detect reloading).
Cold weapons - again, LUA stuff, I have some sort of plan (usage of "SetAnimStyle" command)
Putting items in a trunk - a bit tricky, but I think doable. If AIs can store itmes in a trunk (go watch citizens using parked cars, sometimes briefcase/purse wielding citizen wants to use a car, so she/he stores item in a trunk first, then proceeds to the driver's seat) then why not player? Just there has to be some sort of magical moving of all stored stuff to a new car when player switches cars. Illogical, but add to gameplay (would be annoying to carry all stuff one by one from one car to another).
anything else? Yeah, trains and subways...very vague idea, but it could work.
But....uni first ^_^.
no rush, just as long as you know your work is really appreciated, esp by me
and everything you've just posted sounds great as well, still enjoying playing through again with the mod, but some of it is ******* difficult now
How can I get "Hat ON/OFF" mod?
Also, I put some mods to MAFIA, and now all the text is away from it. I can't read anything, not even the main menu text (STORY, FREERIDE etc)
And I need to guess where is "YES" and "NO" if I go to freeride
Something probably went wrong with your text_default.sds. Hopefully you made a backup of it. If you did, try replacing the one in your game directory with the backup, and see if that solves the problem.Also, I put some mods to MAFIA, and now all the text is away from it.

is there a way we can remodel graphics and texture in mafia 2 now ?
like.. making a new suit or something, or removing a tie lol..
umm sorry i wasnt following the last thread :P
I think so, but I have no idea how to do it myself. You might want to start looking around in the "wardrobe" section of the "sds" folder. Once MafiaScene is back up, I would also recommend taking a look there, as they have an excellent modding forum.
well thanks anyway :P still figuring out how to extract and inject /use those sds files tho.. i have no experience in these.. up till now only done the simple stuff... :]
Well since Mafia Scene is down, I'll put up my two Mafia II mods here
Mod 1
Redemption Mod
Being an avid Mafia I modder I wanted to bring a little life to the freeride game that costas opened up so working off His work, and frankly others I made a little freeroam mod where the following occurs
Description: Henry is Capo and Gives you missions at Freddy’s Bar. 20 Missions total
Joe hangs around The Maltese Falcon during the day. He’ll ride with you.
Saves and day changes Saves at the Garages*
Saves when you go to sleep
Seasons Change when you go to sleep*
Weapons Recharge when you sleep
Joe and Henry are at their Homes at night
* Features originally in Gvozden’s freeride dlc
I made this one loaded with weapons, and cars and a semi-god mode where it is ALMOST impossible to die.
Its just my sad little attempt to redeem a game that could have been so much better
Download it
The second Mod I call Vito's Vendetta, it is a file swap that changes out Jimmy's skins and SOME voices for Vito's
The only known glitch is the very first mission (prison) where the character has a black head
Download it
Over all a real disppointing game to play and mod, but I tried
For all my Mafia I Mods go to matteo-mods.com
Nice site Matteo and very nice work
EDIT: found answer.
EDIT: About the Draw Distance, is there any tutorial how to get work it? I mean the non-frame-drops-version.

Their were loads more,Mabye these were the deleted free ride missions(fr),I extracted them and some of the stuff looks like it could be "Activated" again.Would it be possible?
Most of them were used for jimmy's vendetta and betrayal of jimmy so... no, we cant activate them in free ride
I was thinking the same,its a shame because jimmys vendettaand BOJ vould have made a great free ride for the main game minus the arcade timer and points.
Where can i download the suit skin? Please post a link.
What about sitting down at a bench or a bar stool etc. is it possible 'casue it's the same thing there NPCs sit down alomost evrywhere so why shouldn't the player be able to do it please look in to it. Thanks
Can someone post a link where to download 2 files from JV to access Vinci mansion?
Has anyone made a mod for jimmys' vendetta were you could get the vinci mansion as a safe house
No, there isn't any mod for that.
What do you mean? To be able to save the game there, change your clothes etc? I think I can do that...
yeh and have a garage there what you said ^
Has any one figured out what files in the car.sds's contain the values for speed and traction and even weather not the car can be used in the mod shop?

if you use the sds tools you can see whats in the car sds files, i just don't know witch file dictates the car's handling.
can somebody help me with modding obn the pc i dont know how to mod and where i can find the files
where it installs the files too. ie "program files"
Did i miss the post, or is there a download for the New Vito looking like Robert De Niro ?
and btw...i didn't use any mods. But can someone point out or are there a must mods to be installed ? I tryed just the texture mod and i don't like it. Im a fan of realistic stuff, so if any mods that are really better but still serious like in the game (clothes for example) i would glady pick them up. I did look true 159 mods or so on informer but didn't really like them so much to dl.
there are few decent mods, mainly cars handling mods and those who manage to make them won't share the info on how? i've looked and looked and looked and looked some more for ini, cfg, and strings of data for car handling and it's like it's non exsistant.
^ What ? Why do you need handling mods ? Mafia 2 handled handling of the cars in the game better then many racing focused games out there!
The pleasure of driving a car, both in normal and in simulaton mod. How they intreact with the surface, feel heavy, and change based on weather. Its just amazing.
They say there is a lot of driving. Yes...but for me it's not a flaw to the game. I simly enjoyed driving in Mafia 2 along with great music from the 50s...a big plus in my book how they did that feature of the game.
i well i have driven all the cars so hard so long the wheels fell off. now i want change the handling and make them faster for fun. I also wanna make it so you can take the cop cars to the shop so you can put on a super charger.
I've been modding GTA since GTA 3. Here is one mod i did in GTA 4, it's a lot of fun.

Lots of new mods up here: http://www.strategyinformer.com/pc/mods/mafia2/mod.html
just saw those todya along with "Rick's tool" hopefully i can actually tweak the code.scripting of the game and do some cool stuff with cars. what i'd really like to see is an under ground tunnel with no AI that is really really really long so you can do top speed tests with all the cars.
Hi there. Can you remember Denby's talk in 2009? Back then, he claimed that items in surroundings can be used as close combat weapons and that it is a great feature to have. Click to see multimedia showing a mod with similar concept. It is very very rough because the video's purpose is only to show that it can be done. Still, it is nice how IllusionEngine allows for such a viscerality. Nice job, 2KCzech!
Interesting, eh?
