Mafia II mods / How to mod Mafia II?

Thank you for the feedback.


 




eXisten, it seems you have already beat me to it, and I do not quite understand what to do with the "Script Car Entity". Are those the commands I would use to edit and manipulate cars? It is also a shame that you do not share everything it is that you have to say  <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/tongue.png" alt="" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/tongue@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">


 




Kirov, thank you for the link but I am not so interested in textures, it's the coding that interests me. However I will definitely try this when the time arises.


 




Jaca, I will get straight onto it  <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/biggrin.png" alt="" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/biggrin@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">

Mafia II mods / How to mod Mafia II?

Oh ok thanks, I did not realise the scale of this task. I'm not quite sure what you mean by "freeride script or tables.sds", so can I ask that you set me a specific task and if necessary tell me where to begin? Thanks for the reply


 




EDIT: My bad, I found the tables.sds. Having a look at it now...

I want to make a mod, but I simply don't know how. I understand I have to use Rick's Tools as this opens SDS files (I'm not entirely sure what an SDS file is, but it seems like a compression of files) and the SDS files contain textures, scripts, tables etc. However, I do not know what files to edit or how to edit them.


 




The mod I would like to make would allow players to purchase cars from the Diamond Motors shop. I do not initially intend on anything complex or finely detailed. Here is a bit of pseudo code to further explain this idea:


 




Player is within AREA -> Show message("Press E to purchase a car") -> If Player presses E, show MENU -> Player selects a car -> if player has enough money -> money is decreased, car is spawned




-> if player does not have enough money -> show message ("You do not have enough money.")


 




Key:




AREA = Close proximity of Diamond Motors building entrance




MENU = A list of all the cars available for purchase and their price next to them. W and S keys to scroll up and down, E to purchase


 


 




So yeah, any tutorials, tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. By the way, I do not have any experience in modding besides a couple of tweaks in Oblivion.
