Every game gets old in terms of graphics. The hits from the past fall into oblivion for various reasons,
 but undoubtedly the most significant of them is poor -as for our times- graphic quality.
GTA Vice City is presently a collection of blatant textures and models,
 which certainly don't make the game more enjoyable.
Vice Cry is a modification that aims to prolong the life of the game,
and to make one of the best parts of the GTA series more entertaining to play.

New features in 1.8:

- Complete renovation of... Everything.
- New peds *
- HQ cars textures *
- More detailed world
- ENB Series support
- New timecyc
- New weapons *
- New textures (especially buildings)
- A little bit more 3D grass (there's never enough)

* - Maybe not all at once, but as much, as we can.

Possible features:

- Density of the traffic
- New cars

This is what Vice Cry actually contains:

- a slew of new textures
- changed 100% vegetation (100% with flowerpots)
- LOD system for palms
- marsh vegetation
- radar HQ and weapons in HUD HQ
- new vehicles (Xbox Vehicles Mod)
- tropical island
- remodeled some skycrapers
- remodeled pickups
- new particle effects
- modified traffic lights
- repaired a lot of texture mapping
- reapired bugs in .IDE
- modified models
- 3D grass

VICE CRY SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:

- Dual Core Processor
- 512 MB ~ 1 GB of RAM
- ~1.5 GB of free hard disk space
-  video card with at least 128 MB of memory

FAQ


1. When are you going to release 1.8?

When it's done.


2. What are you going to include in 1.8?

A bunch of new stuff, of course including renovated building models.


3. Anyways - what is "Vice Cry"?

Read the main description, please.


4. How can I help you with Vice Cry?

We don't need a help at this moment but you can tell your friends about Vice Cry - this is the best idea to support us :)


5. How about the progress with the 1.8? And What are you gonna do next, after you finish?

Now we're workin' on the Havana disrtict. Next, we're going to renovate Haiti and Downtown, probably. We're heading north.


6. Are you going to include some new places in 1.8? maybe some secret/unique terrains?

We'd love to :) Don't tell anybody but we have some surprises yet.


7. Can I be a betatester?

Nope. We can handle everything by ourselves at the moment.


8. Can you combine another mod with yours? I'd like to see...

No, we can not.


9. Can I use your mod in my project?

Technically - no. But you can talk with us about that.


10. Could you feature my idea in upcoming 1.8?

You can always send us a message with your ideas and suggestions. We'll read all of them.
If this concept has a sense (arms and legs, as we say), we probably will use it in Vice Cry.
of course if it's possible to make.


11. Could you make a RAGE engine version of Vice Cry?

No - we're focused on the Renderware engine only.


12. How about supported .exes?

We're trying to support each .exe version but the default ver. under developement is still 1.0 ENG.


13. Why don't you use the uncut version of .exe as default?

Uncut .exe is unstable.


14. I have a censored version (german) of Vice Cry 1.7 - what can I do?

There are some .exes in Vice Cry 1.7 download section - check them out.


15. I have a Steam version of GTA Vice City. Would there be a problem with it?

No, if you installed mod correctly and turned Steam offline (disable files update).


16. I have a crash while loadng the game...

First of all - install the patches 1.7.1 and 1.7.2.

It didn't help? Check your gta3.img file size (...GTA Vice City/models). if it;s about 300 MB - that's bad.
it should have about 1.5 GB. Install program works badly sometimes and doesn't copy the files correctly.
It's very, very rarely but happens sometimes.

In that case - install mod to an empty folder and then copy all of the files to the GTA Vice City root folder.

You can also delete CLEO.asi (it's in the root folder) and try to load a new game.


17. Do I need to download the previous versions of the mod to play full Vice Cry?

No - just install 1.7 and both patches.


18. Will the current (1.7.2) version of Vice Cry be required to run 1.8 properly?

No, don't worry. v1.8 is going to be a stable, separate version of Vice Cry. You will need only 1.8 files to play.


19. What can I do, if I find a bug or glitch in Vice Cry?

Please, report it to us, if it's possible. We'll try to fix it as soon as possible.
Screenshots and videos are welcome ;)

You definitely should install Vice Cry on CLEAR copy of Vice City. Your cars will be replaced with these from our mod (vehicles converted from Xbox).
If you want, you can always install them again, it's no big deal, but if anything goes wrong, we won't be able to help you finding solution to your issue.
Also, no worries - it should work fine - I've seen some screenshots in the web, with hardly modified Vice Cry. All of these worked well, as far as I know.

And can't you create the option (install XBOX cars) in the installer?

Well, even if, it won't help in your case. Vice Cry installs whole, remade archives and files, so old vehicles will be replaced no matter what - if not to XBox versions, then to original (PC) ones.
So - no, we cannot, cause it won't change anything.

We have... Or maybe should I say "I have" a small break from work, unfortunately. I've got to buy a new monitor, because my old one broke some time ago and I'm not able to finish any of my projects.
Now, I need some time and of course, cash, to do it - so be patient, please. When I come back (very soon, I hope), I'll do what I need to do :)
With or without me, Little Havana is nearly finished, though. Hardware issues won't stop us!
