After a few delay (because I had to make it compatible with the PS2 release too), here it is....
How to install the "mod":
For PC users:
Step 1 -
Extract the content of this RAR file (anywhere, just not in the Audio folder of GTA III !)
Step 2 -
Run MSX_PC_Converter.bat . It will convert the VB file to WAV format, which is necessary, if you want to use the "mod" with your PC release.
Step 3 -
After the conversion, you will have an MSX.WAV file. You need to copy that into the Audio directory of GTA III and yes, you have to replace the already existing file with the same name.
Optional Step for Earlier Version owners!:
If you already changed you game's .EXE file in order to run the earlierversion of the mod, here's how you can change it back for this release:
- - Download HxD (It's a hex editor)
- - Make a backup from your gta3.exe
- - Open the original gta3.exe in your directory with HxD
- - Choose Search -> Replace
- - Fill the required fields with these:
- - Search for: MSX.MP3
- - Replace with: MSX.WAV - Click "Replace all".
- - After it's done, choose File -> Save - Close HxD and continue with Step 4
Step 4 -
Launch the game, select Audio Setup in the Options menu and choose MSX FM from the radio stations. After it's done, the station had integrated into the game. Now you can play freely. Oh, and say "Hi."for Luigi in my name too... ;)
For PS2 players:
WARNING! DO NOT ASK ME ABOUT ILLEGAL DOWNLOAD LINKS! I WILL NOT GIVE ANY KIND OF INFORMATION LIKE THAT! IN THIS TUTORIAL, I SUGGEST, THAT YOU HAVE A LEGAL COPY OF THE GAME, AND YOU DUMPED THAT INTO AN ISO FILE.
This mod had been only tested on PCSX2 and Open PS2 Loader (Daily Builds)[the PS2-Home variant], running GTA 3 from a USB stick.
In order to use the mod with your copy: You need to put the VB file into the MUSIC directory of your ISO backup of GTA III (I highly recommend UltraISO for that, since that one is actually shrinking the ISO file's size too [That's how it was possible for me to fit the mod on the image.). Don't forget to save the image at the end ;)
