VC Bus Shelter Mod v1.0 by DiCanio


This Mod places 32 bus shelters alongside bus stops 
throughout Vice City, complete with new advertisements.
Every bus stop in Vice City now has it's own shelter.
One of the many things Rockstar planned for Vice City but 
never implemented were kool looking bus shelters. They 
were included in the Generic.ide file and GTA3.img file 
but were left out of the final game. I think this was a 
pity as they made an excellent job of modeling them. 


Tools you will need:
IMG Tool v1.3

Instructions:
1.
Replace your bustopm.TXD file in the GTA3.img file with 
IMG Tool. Make a back-up copy by extracting the file 
with IMG Tool to a folder on your hard drive (right 
click - Extract). It's best to delete the TXD file from 
your GTA3.img file before replacing it. If you are 
having problems accessing the GTA3.img file check if 
your files in the Rockstar directory are Read Only. 
See the handy tip further down this Readme about Read 
Only files. 
Remember to rebuild your archive using the Rebuild 
Archive option in the Commands menu of IMG Tool.

2.
Add the Shelter folder containing the GimmeShelter.IPL 
file to your Mods folder in the DATA/MAPS directory. 
If you don't have a MODS folder then make one, as 
it's easier to keep track of your Mods this way. Next, 
replace your gta_vc.dat file in the DATA folder with 
the one from this Mod. If you already have a Modded 
gta_vc.dat file then add this line at the end of the 
IPL entries in the 'SPLASH loadsc3' section.

IPL DATA\MAPS\MODS\Shelter\GimmeShelter.IPL

Your M2 bus route passengers can now shelter from 
the elements :o)

Wee Bonus ;o)
Have you ever noticed that the red newspaper machine near
the airport terminal entrance is hovering about a metre 
off the ground? This was a simple error by Rockstar. To 
fix this just replace your Airport.IPL file with the one 
in the Airport folder of this Mod. Alternatively you 
could just replace the line in your Airport.IPL file with
the following:

415, papermachn01, 0, -1379.52, -788.98, 14.2829, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1

Special Thanx to the following:
Steve_M, Spooky, KCows - and all GTA enthusiast sites
and Modders everywhere :o)


If you're wondering who the young nymphet is in the 
advert - it's the delectable Estefania Borge :o))


That's All Folks!


Have Fun!

Check whither your files are Read-Only. This is a common 
problem with Vice City. Grab this wee program and let
it change your Read-Only files for you with no fuss.
CROA - http://www.davidcrowell.com/croa.html

Just right click on the main Vice City dir after install 
and choose Clear Read-Only Attributes.

Tip of the Week:
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
GTA MOD INSTALLER
For all you Modders out there - and there's quite a few! Take 
a look at cpmusicks GTA Mod Installer. Not only will it
install cars automatically in GTA3 and Vice City but it will 
also change the handling, default and carcol entries if these 
are included in the Mod! Pretty kool stuff. It will install 
other Mods too which require DFF or TXD replacement etc in the 
GTA3.img file, or indeed ANYWHERE in the Rockstar Games 
directory. It will save you quite a bit of work and anyone who
installs Mods on a regular basis will find the job easier if a 
Mod comes with an Install Script for the GTA Mod Installer. 
Grab it here: http://www.gta3hq.com/ - :o))

NEW version also backs-up any files it replaces so that you
can uninstall any Mod with ease! A good thing just got better!

Game Play Tip:
Fed up with your car disappearing as soon as you turn your 
back? Just press the Exit button along with the Run button 
and the door will be left open when you leave a vehicle. 
Your car will remain just where you left it for a long 
time. It's an old trick but well worth remembering :o)
