Ok, so you've probably all already seen most of this on either the old Mafia Scene or My site (http://rubymafiamods.forums-free.com//:g42kd942)But here it is anyway (//wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/biggrin.png)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/biggrin@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> )The Commission Mod.A new story mod for Mafia.Set in a new city you will control Franco Phillipinno. A soldier for the Grannoli Family. It is 1931, a vicious and bloody war between the Grannoli and Rogotti families which has lasted 6 months has left the people of Sultant City in fear. Now Don Grannoli is set to get back to business and make the peace with Rogotti and one thing that the old Don has learned is that dead men don't make problems in business.So he has called a meeting with the Sultant City Commission. And he has arranged for you to finally put an end to this conflict.The ScreensFranco Phillipinno's Save HouseAs anybody who has read The Godfather knows that a war usually follows a "hit to the matresses". A run down and dirty apartment where key members hide when in fear of death or when the heat is on. And Franco Phillipinno is no different. Due to the war he cannot simply go home to see his wife and children, he must stay here in this dreadful apartment.(//applications/core/interface/imageproxy/imageproxy.php?img=http://i1201.photobucket.com/albums/bb344/RubyDragon949/The%2520Commission%2520Mod/game2010091319033325.jpg&key=874a8081846f4e5a85ca4a348d5558c9a5d0d23c0099435ac0e5c6c311ace14b)(//applications/core/interface/imageproxy/imageproxy.php?img=http://i1201.photobucket.com/albums/bb344/RubyDragon949/The%2520Commission%2520Mod/game2010091319033711.jpg&key=75c7972c9c10d870d598e2f47a916deb9888b50f33d41a958b4f1c3070c382fe)(//applications/core/interface/imageproxy/imageproxy.php?img=http://i1201.photobucket.com/albums/bb344/RubyDragon949/The%2520Commission%2520Mod/game2010091319034308.jpg&key=6128d0d68e7d13e6a7426dc87874c58116ed04acd4f80f157cb6e21657522f57)And yes that toilet in the corner will be useable (//wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink.png)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> )(//applications/core/interface/imageproxy/imageproxy.php?img=http://i1201.photobucket.com/albums/bb344/RubyDragon949/The%2520Commission%2520Mod/Game2010-10-1120-42-22-99.jpg&key=e8c8ef048f873200b8f0740d7a2e54c4cf6687b7c97f24724e4dd004846d9e14)Even with prohibition in effect it does'nt stop the citizens enjoying a night out.

Hmm, if you do believe that the mod will take very long, then sure, by all means do so, It would attract more attention the mod, and people will offer idea's and thoughts on your work so far. So yeah, release Part I / Part II / Part III, as you finish each one, cause I am sure we all would love to see Part I.
I agree with Mike, but again...you should be able to start a poll to get user feedback. I have it set up so you an do that (//applications/core/interface/imageproxy/imageproxy.php?img=%257BSMILIES_PATH%257D/smiley.gif&key=02ceb271c9beebbba5eb063807ea68025aa3a8748920403386f7b2f1ca9b55eb)

Sounds fantastic Ruby, when you make the release I will make a lovely post of it on homepage. (//applications/core/interface/imageproxy/imageproxy.php?img=%257BSMILIES_PATH%257D/smiley.gif&key=02ceb271c9beebbba5eb063807ea68025aa3a8748920403386f7b2f1ca9b55eb)
I am so far 90% done the story on Part I, and I really love it. I really can feel the love you put into this mod, it really has loads of work in it and we thank you for your hard efforts at the best mod i've played yet for Mafia I.The only problem I have is the interior buildings, I am a 3D modeller and I can make you 3D interior sets, take a look at my first Mafia building...(//img707.imageshack.us/img707/1374/forumphoto1.png&key=5b2604abfa99565e252dde9a33927ae84dc2ed4d81a7b5bd25666a652572b590)As you can see with your interior sets looking like this, would make your mod 100x more immersive, and feel like an actual DLC to the main game, and I can build for you what you like no cost or anything like that, just for the good of Mafia modding.

I think nearly 3 weeks has been more than enough time so...Some feedback please guys?

As a matter of fact I recently installed again and experienced this incredible game (Mafia I)but I had forgotten about your mod so I am downloading it now and I will come up with my impressions soon ( if I manage to install it properly (//applications/core/interface/imageproxy/imageproxy.php?img=%257BSMILIES_PATH%257D/tongue.gif&key=12081d159ca931758a5d5d5d988fd411ed35b7976e937628866216e7e8f55a42) )
You'll love it, It is the best Mafia I mod that I've played yet, but the interiors are bad, as I said in the post 2 weeks ago, if the interiors were equal to like what is in the original Mafia I game, the mod would seriously feel like a DLC.
I started the mod and... I found it very detailed and nice designed. Taking into consideration that only one guy made all this alone I think you deserve to get the game development seriously.Here's a few things I would like changed,added,removed1) add more good cars ( those you usually get from Lucas Bertone)2) try to make better interiors with good textures3) give more detail to the exterior too. For example the house where you live with your family has outside grass but I only can see a green ground. 4)put some pedestrians5) about the streets. You could place the real mafia streets and not just a grey ground as well as put some moving cars6) there are some places outside where 2 buildings are covering each other and it appears very creepy7) Regarding the subtitles make them last a bit longer, sometimes I don't have the time to read them all (//applications/core/interface/imageproxy/imageproxy.php?img=%257BSMILIES_PATH%257D/cool.gif&key=966b6b20dd8e999d179c54cc688c4dbc9db42072c9804007403c6962770d1162)Put some music and city sounds ( I could only hear my footsteps,the gunshots and the music in the bar)9)...keep up the good work. I understand you have made this from scratch and it is really worth giving it a try.Sorry if I was rude in my recommendations but that's what you asked after all...constructive feedback. Gongrats :cheer: :lol:
Very detailed C&C thank you Mafioso, I agree with you on your C&C's, of course this is the first release, Ruby will evolve, but even at the current state, I have found no better mod in Mafia I than The Commision Mod.

But thats only because I'd never done it before. But the interiors in part 2 will be better and not as basic as the ones in part 2.

Ruby, I can build you the interiors, what I do is I make the building design, I render it in AO and Shadows just like how Mafia I buildings are rendered in the storyline, and the model I send you is just a white rendered interior, you can customize it with textures of your choice etc.
Ok. So in terms of updates I've been on the quiet recently as I've been busy with things. But this has still been plodding along (just at a slower rate).
But I thought "This tedious bit is done now and this part may interest people" so I took Fraps and got busy.
This is a small video show casing part of Mission 3.
Enjoy guys.

I LOVE this.
Just a word of advice bud, the fire-escape model "schody2.4ds" is modelled on the inside as well as the outside, so it might do to replace the other model with that for aesthetic effect <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> "schody1.4ds" was only used on buildings in Freeride because it had a lower poly count and the player would never use them.

YES!
You finally solved what was plaguing me for ages (//wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/ohmy.png) I was going crazy trying to find a way to make all the fire escape seen instead of just the bottom (So the player doesn't just walk on thin air when using the fire escape). Thank you Asa!

I know I've been a bit quiet recently guys and galsÃâà:-[
But I thought I'd just post a quick message to say.
"I am not around as much because I now have alot more hours at work and alot less freetime. But never fear, because although you may not be hearing from me much or are wondering the mod is dead then don't worry...The Commission Mod is still alive and well and always will be until I say otherwise <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> "
But still. Just to keep you all informed with a little update. I have nearly finished Mission 3 of Part 2, so all I ask is be patcient <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> I am still working hard on this but I am rather busy these days so I usually work on the mod about an hour/hour and a half each day in total <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad.png" alt="(//frown.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> Not as much time as I'd like to be working on it but unfortunatly I have to allow for other things.
So yeah. All is well, the mod is alive. I recommend all of you just go about your business and I'll let you know when I drum out new updates worth hearing <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">
The total Commission Mod Part 2 progress is probably around 15 - 20% at the minute.

Not having as much time to mod as I used to this days I try to scrape together the minutes and hours I can to do what I can on this mod.
I've decided that due to my abscence for so long I've got to show something productive.
So what better way to that than with...
SOME SCREENS!
These are fresh from production (a couple of lighting errors need to be attended to) so they are more or less top notch.
Backstory of these screens - It is mission 4 of Commission Mod part 2. Franco has been assigned to go back to Sultant City to hit the Ottovella brothers. Two Rogotti family made men, at a smoke shop they use as a hangout.
Franco buys his ticket to return to Sultant City.

This is a secret mission. No one can know of Franco's sudden re-appearance in Sultant City. So all witnesses must be killed. Too back for the owner of the shop. (Also for authencicity I've took the time to add some cigarette ads on the walls of the time. Such as doctors actually recommending cigarettes <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/biggrin.png" alt="(//bigsmile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/biggrin@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> )

Mission accomplished. The Ottovellas are dead.

The mod looks briliant, I enojoyed part I, one of my fav levels was the warehouse of where your getting revenge on the boss of that joint, and the political mans car, and where you save your gang member from captivaty. awesome fun. Just one problem with the mod, one HUGE problem, the interiors are making it hard to sink in to how fantastic the mod really is, the interiors look bad, and that is where for me all the goodies happen. I don't mean to slag or anything like that, just if the interiors were same quality as the storyline in Mafia I, it would probably feel like a big DLC in 2003 if the interiors fitted right.
Awesome progress Ruby!
These screens are beautiful Ruby! The storyline is very variant, and the interiors are great.You have nice imaginationsÃâà<img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink.png" alt="(//wink.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">

Just a heads up to let you all know that the mod is currently on hold while I commit to another, more important project which will be ready for Mafia's 10th Anniversary <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink.png" alt="(//wink.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> but more on that another time.

Here we are!!!
Now, what I am about to show, has been on my ideas board for 2 years (since the disappointment of Mafia II infact). So...
I present to you all...
MY ULTIMATE REVENGE ON 2K!
:evil: :evil: :evil:
So's not to give away the story. I shall stick with the basics.
Franco has been sent to OBLITERATE! the "2K Shipping Co." (because games were not around back then <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink.png" alt="(//wink.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> ).
No witnesses must be left alive. So Franco has been sure to clean house here.

And after planting a few explosives at several gas mains around the warehouse buildings.

The 2K Shipping Co is toast. Franco's job is done, and my revenge on the cheating bastards is finally complete!

For all the loyal Mafia 1 fans, this was for you.

P.S - Nothing would give me greater pleasure than to show this to the "lovely" guys and gals at 2K. Who thinks I should?

Haha very originall Ruby!Maybe you could search for the names of the most responsible guys in 2k and add it to your story?That would piss them off <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/biggrin.png" alt="(//bigsmile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/biggrin@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> .
Haha nice. I wonder what made Morello so pissed that he made him blow up 2k base haha
Now they are done, Ruby :cool: Good idea :cool:
You guys interested in a new update?
If so, then let me know <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">

Franco taking part in an illegal boxing ring against a moolie? What could this be about? (Giovanni is also there behind the cage, although he doesn't look too pleased about seeing Franco participating)
Stay tuned.
Hope you enjoyed this minor update and new piece of info.
I would mark part 2 at being about 45%/50% done. Things have been progressing faster recently and I intend to keep up this pace.

Very nice atmospheric screen Ruby.
I like the new idea.The trilogy seemed exaggerated to me a little bit cuz one unit would easily give up.
QuoteI like the new idea.The trilogy seemed exaggerated to me a little bit.
The trilogy is still being made. I was just saying that I've now decided to go for 4 parts instead of 3. The 4th part will serve as the epilogue.
QuoteThe trilogy seemed exaggerated to me a little bit cuz one unit would easily give up.

QuoteHow about you finish your trilogy step by step first instead of talking about more ideas which will only delay the release?.

Seeing as each part is being made individually (step by step as you said) I don't need to worry about new ideas holding up developement as they will simply just be included in the next part. And seeing as the Epilogue will be a new part entirely when Part 3 is released you will already have the whole Commission Mod story anyway. The epilogue will just serve as, well, the epilogue.

By one unit i mean one person.I mean that you are taking too much on your back.Team work is always better.
Like someone who is a good modeler and designer would model the city,someone would script it,and someone would write a storyline.That way its more fun for team members and people.Cuz its more detailed and team work is always more fun.When you do all alone it may get quite boring because you know whats gonna happen and you are not surprised from anything.
By trying to do 3 pieces you will never be able to focus on one perfectly and never make it very detailed.
Anyway its just my opinion.I would never go for a big project like this alone.
I quite admire you for that :s ide:
I love to see your updates, this mod has to be as long, if not longer than the actual main-game storyline, the first part takes a good amount of hours, well done mate, you put in tons of hard work. <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">
Just a quick change of plans guys and girls
As you may of read. I originally planned this
Quoteinstead of a trilogy we will now get one extra installment.
The Commission Mod - Epilogue
Won't go into details but. It will involve Franco's son, the 1950s, Sultant City again and last but no means least...Sicily!
However, I completely forgot that Franco's son was infact killed in a car bomb in part 1 <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/biggrin.png" alt="(//bigsmile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/biggrin@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">(//wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/blush.png.f82797d681f6058d78bfce89aae261a7.png)(//wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/ohmy.png) ops: My bad <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/biggrin.png" alt="(//bigsmile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/biggrin@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">
So in short, there will be no part IV/epilogue and I am now sticking with the original 3 part idea.
Sorry about that (//wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/blush.png.f82797d681f6058d78bfce89aae261a7.png)

Haha and you even started to create a story (//wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/laugh.png) ...
Never mind Ruby.I dont like 5Os anyway.It just doesnt have that mafia atmosphere no more in there.
I would be very greatfull if you even manage to finish those 3 parts.Commision mod 1 is very nice.
How much time do you think it will take to finish the second part?
QuoteI would be very greatfull if you even manage to finish those 3 parts.Commision mod 1 is very nice.

Oh don't worry, friend. I WILL finish these other 2 parts. I promise you all that I will.
The second part is about half way done now (50%) It should not take too much longer.
I am opting for an August/September release date. Of course, it could be shorter or longer than that. I am not sticking to that release date so don't go counting down the days. The only real answer I can give is it will be done when its done. Like I said. It is 50% complete now and I don't plan on rushing anything.

QuoteNever mind Ruby.I dont like 5Os anyway.It just doesnt have that mafia atmosphere no more in there.
Well, seeing as how the great depression - early 30s is the only era in most mafia games, I would say that I am not against 50s at all. If you have seen Goodfellas, then you know that it was the golden age for gangsters.
Anyways, I would rather go back to early 10's actually. This is when early Italian-American migrations happened and this is when some of the first NY 5 families were established. I am kind tied of the same prohibition approach in most mafia games. Well, 50's are good too, The Godfather II was all about 50's/early 60's actually, but it was anoter generaion of mafia so yea, the feel is different.
Good luck with your project Ruby! Sad hearing that there will be no Sicily missons. Perhaps Morello had a son? <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">

Ok. So a lot of people who watched my most recent trailer have probably been wondering when "Sooner than you'd think..." is.
Well, as you all know that seeing as these are story orientated mods I really can't give much away in terms of updates so's not to spoil things for you.
However. Part 2 is nearly done. And so I thought I'd answer the question that Samo asked.
"How many % is done?": The mod is now 85% or so completed.
So all in all, the release date I am hoping for this mod is the middle of August/Early September.
Of course, depending on how much time I invest in the mod over the next few weeks (I am a working man who does 30 hours a week as well as keeping up a social life) it could be more or maybe less.
All I ask for is your continued patience <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> You've all been great and given me much support and I thank you all.

Hmm...How strange, just tested driving to the hotel and mine worked fine.
Silly question. But have either of you two tried running the mod as administrator? Whenever I play mods I always run as administrator.
In the meantime, I'll check through the files and see if maybe I've missed something on my end.
Sorry guys. I'll try and discover the problem as soon as I can.

Dont work your patch,the game crashed
You need to delete the mise37-hotel and than past the new again.Overwriting wont help..
It worked for me.
Very nice Jason. I especially like the chinese backyard, well converted from the original mise13-zradce.
That jokes about 2K are killing me :cheer: :lol:
I have some bad news again. I don't know, if it's my fault, but everytime I play "New year party", everyone in the bar starts shooting at me without reason right after spek with Morello <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad.png" alt="(//frown.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">
When I play the mission with the Chinese guy and jump out the window of what's originally Carlo's apartment - the guy just runs a bit to the left, stands still and the cutscene never ends.
I have found another bug which doesnt let me go through.
In MISE42-MESTO1 the guy which i am supposed to deliver the boxes.After i do it a dialog begins.I checked the script and its supposed to set active a cop.But it doesnt set him active.There is no player_lockcontrols 0 or anything and im stuck..
Did anybody else experience this??
I don't think this is a bug. If it continues let me know.
You're supposed to remain stationary for a few seconds while the cop walks up behind you and finishes his dialogue. When your controls are unlocked just speak with him.
Hope this helps. Of course, if it really is a bug and nothing happens still I will inspect the mission myself for any problems.
Happy playing.

I will say it in a longer form..Its a very good mod..Although you rushed it out with release a little bit.
The story was great just like in the first part but there were some not clear parts.
Like,why would Franco risk everything and turn against Morello just because he didnt like the way Morello looks on him?
There could have been a mission where Morello has done him wrong just to clear it out a bit.And in the end why would Morello let him live.Its explained that because of business connections with Granolli.But Granolli would surely understand it if he knew that Franco was about to kill Morello.
If i try not to think about this and try not to see the undetailed scripts its awesome.
Maybe you could release 1.1 patch fixing the bugs?For example assasination of Sergio.I didnt even shot him and a dialog appeared saying "fuck.i only wounded him".
But yeah its obvious that it cant be perfect.You have modelled and scripted the whole mod alone after all.That patch would be really helpfull anyway.
But you sayed that you want to realease an alternative ending right?How about making it and fixing the bugs too?I know its a slave and boring work but its necessary in some missions.
But the mod is great <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> .Its nice that there are still mods like this being done.

In the hotel mission, after I kill all the cops and get in the car - nothing happens. The police always shoot the driver of the car and I reckon it might have something to do with this - but there doesn't seem to be a way to stop it. Every time I get down off the fire escape, they're blasting him through the windshield with shotguns.
Well if you have extracted the game folders correctly and copied the mod in.You should have something like this in Menu "The Commision Mod"
No, it does not appear <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad.png" alt="(//frown.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">
Did you use mafiaDataXtractor before?
Yes i used before. But then deleted all the folders (i mean system,missions and etc.)
Well you need to have those folders in there if you want to use mods <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">

Quoteyou rushed it out with release a little bit.
I made sure everything was up to working standard before I released it. So nessacerilly I didn't (as for the hotel mission incident, I can't explain how that one got by me. It was working when I test played before uploading)
QuoteThe story was great just like in the first part but there were some not clear parts.
Like,why would Franco risk everything and turn against Morello just because he didnt like the way Morello looks on him?
There could have been a mission where Morello has done him wrong just to clear it out a bit.
There was a mission in part 1 where Morello wronged him. When you failed the hit on Paulie, Morello and his men beat you to a pulp. And, as explained at the begining of part 2, he held out a massive amount of money from him from the armoured van hiest at the end of part 1.
Quotewhy would Morello let him live.Its explained that because of business connections with Granolli.But Granolli would surely understand it if he knew that Franco was about to kill Morello.
Morello hasn't told Grannoli of his betrayal yet. What do you think finally gets Franco killed in the begining of part 1/end of part 3? <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink.png" alt="(//wink.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">
QuoteYou have modelled and scripted the whole mod alone.
Indeed I have, so you can't expect everything to be top notch. I've done my best (be aware that I've worked on part 1 and 2 for a year respectivly and I'm sure part 3 will end up that way too *sighs* so much work (//confuse.gif)??: )
QuoteBut you sayed that you want to realease an alternative ending?
I'm considering it. And like I told you, when more people give me their feedback I will ask the question as to whether an alternate ending should be made (after Part 3 of course)
QuoteBut the mod is great <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> .Its nice that there are still mods like this being done.

I will play both parts soon Ruby, then i will give you MY feedback <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink.png" alt="(//wink.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">
Please, help me with the 9 mission (part 1). How to pass this mission?
EDIT: Sorry, figured out)
After removing/copying the patched hotel mission folder the game still crashes <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad.png" alt="(//frown.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">
Also, I cannot seem to steal any cars which makes some missions impossible to solve such as the one where you have to steal a car when you recruit people. I think I used to fix that long time ago but I forgot how. How?
Fantastic Mod. Thank you Ruby for these awesome moments.
Since you will be working on the Part 3 I have few suggestions:
1. Avoid event spoilers. Such as before Franco went to the hotel to visit his Don he already revealed the player tha there will be shooting. I think unexpected it would be way more effective. And well sme other moments with spoilers too..
2.Pay attention to bugs such as NPC car drive on these occasions when you do not drive sometimes they drive awfully, get stuck etc. I know you can just skip the drive but it would be cool if there could be some awesome dialogues going on during the ride etc.
Also. One little point. Mafia never does forgive those who messes with it. So there is virtually no chances Morello could let Franco go despite his business interest with Franco's boss. I believe when you were working on Part 1 you mentioned you have read The Godfather. Well, it clearly says that Mafia never forgives in such cases. One of the reasons why young Vito decided to deal with Fanucci is that Fanucci accepted money from some families in order to let their sons go who tried to asassinate him before. That fact made Vito conclude that Fanucci has no connections with Mafia whatsoever.
Overall fantastic mod. Simply amazing. Well, I didnt really like the ending but it was Mafia-like - unexpected and fast <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/tongue.png" alt="(//tongue.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/tongue@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> Such as who knew Morello could one hit kill all their crew before Franco and Gio could arrive to the warehouse.
I agree with Tommy, awesome mod! It's not even just a mod, it is unofficial DLC! Thank you Ruby <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink.png" alt="(//wink.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">

QuoteMafia never does forgive those who messes with it. So there is virtually no chances Morello could let Franco go despite his business interest with Franco's boss.
As I already told, Samo. In the part 1 prologue it clearly shows Franco's boss (Don Grannoli) killing Franco after massacring The Commission in the hotel. Perhaps you should replay Part 1 and refresh your memory a bit <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink.png" alt="(//wink.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> I am no idiot <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> I know the mob never forget. Which is why I've thought this through carefully. When Part 3 is released you will all understand exactly why Morello spared Franco. He was always going to die for his treachory. Just not by Morello's hands <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink.png" alt="(//wink.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">

Well, he couldn't very well disrupt his very profitable business connections with Don Grannoli over the life of one man, could he?
Ruby: one little thing... I was wondering, why your mod don't have sounds at all ... Stream_create and Stream_play are usable ONLY for .OGG or .MP3 files. If you want from Mafia to play WAV file, just use playsound command. If you know about this issue, why it isn't fixed at all?
And one little advice: change behaviour of NPC characters, because it's nonsense to kill Morello, continue mission and see Morello alive after next loading.
After my month off I have returned!
The Commission Mod - Part 3 is in production.
So far, one mission has already been completed. The second is in the works.
While I have no screenshots of Part 3 itself so far, I do have one of the menu for part 3 (although, you've probably already seen it before as it is the same one of what was ment to be the original menu of CM before I decided to split it into parts)

And will you try to improve technical site of Commision mod?
Try at least to repair sounds, when you know, that you added sounds and they didn't work, why you didn't repair that issue?
I'm very glad to hear this ruby!!
QuoteAnd will you try to improve technical site of Commision mod?

Did you extract all of Mafia's default files with data extractor and then paste my mods files afterwards?
If not then there's the reason you heard no sounds throughout the mod. You're the first to bring the issue up. But thank you <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">
If you just took my files and put them in your directory without using data extractor first then there are some issues. I'm aware of this.

P.S - I am just one modder at the end of the day. This was my idea for one last "great mod" when I thought that, after Mafia II's release that our community would be finished. Stopped stone dead.
Some say I should never of attempted such a project alone. And in some aspects I agree. I'm crazy for it, and good or bad its what I'll always be remembered for on here <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/tongue.png" alt="(//tongue.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/tongue@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> I am not a great modder by any means. And I certainly am not a modeler as you can probably tell from my past interiors ;P but at the end of the day. Modding is my hobby, and I like to share it with others. I'm glad that most reviews of both of CM parts so far were mainly positive <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> But nothing can be perfect and I don't expect it to be. I just do the best with what I have/know and implement new things as I learn.
I share my work with you all cos we love this fantastic game. If you like my work, download it. If you don't, then make something better so that I too can learn from your experiances and be able to then better myself and further improve the life of this game <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">
I don't know if anyone plays Half-Life. But the Black Mesa mod got released this week and its truely incredible. Hopefully one day, if we all get an extreamly brilliant band of modders together, we could create something just as good as that for Mafia.
Thats just a dream anyway.
Regards to all

There's no need to extract files. If some "original" file isn't in folder, Mafia will load it from DTA file. It's because Stream commands are for OGG files, not for WAV files.
I don't know, from where this myth comes, but it's true, when you for example want taxi00.4DS and you don't have extracted it, it doesn't mind. ONLY problem is with City Musics, because city musics aren't stored in sounds/music in DTA file, but extractor is placing it there.
But I don't mean only sound issue... For example, I tried to hit morello and I thought, that I'll be dead in 2 seconds, but nothing happened.
Commision mod have great atmosphere, but modding in team (At least two poepole) is much more funnier, I am doing model jobs, details like briefings, intermezzos and Samo does action part, cutscenes and scripting works like that. And there are more opinions to recognize and fix bugs. It's not shame to share pride for work with somebody,
After some great hours, completed the Commission Mod Part 2, and I came here with my feedback <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">
So where I start... All missions contained great minutes of action, scenes and gameplay...
The Commission Mod Part 2 storyline was interesting and varied just like Part 1.
My favourite scenes were:
First one: [spoiler:1uy85v8d]When Franco, Giovanni and his friend buried the dead body at contryside <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/biggrin.png" alt="(//bigsmile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/biggrin@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> [/spoiler:1uy85v8d]
Second one: [spoiler:1uy85v8d]When Franco killed Giovanni at his apartment[/spoiler:1uy85v8d]
Of course, there were more nice scenes but these are my favourites <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">
When I was playing the missions I found two bugged missions, which I can't completed and I skipped them.
First one: [spoiler:1uy85v8d]When Franco needs to deliver the boxes to the shop.After I unloaded the truck, in the cutscene after the dialogues nothing happens[/spoiler:1uy85v8d]
Second one: [spoiler:1uy85v8d]After reaching the zone, near Little Italy Gas Station, when the yellow car arrive to the gas station, nothing happens.The gas station attendant try to refuel the car, but he can't to do.The cutscene doesn't disappear.[/spoiler:1uy85v8d]
In some missions can be found some nice ideas, which I liked <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> just like the [spoiler:1uy85v8d]fireworks, shoot down the lock etc.[/spoiler:1uy85v8d]
Overall the Part 2 was great and action-packed.Good work <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink.png" alt="(//wink.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> I'm waiting for see what will be in the last part <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink.png" alt="(//wink.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">
Hello all.
Figured it was time to update you all on whats been happening.
First off, this mod is still in production. Just not at a fast pace. For you see, I gained myself a girlfriend a couple of days after I started working on Part 3, so naturally, most of my time (other than work) is dedicated to her, along with my friends/social life.
But alas, this mod is still at work. But more sort of "if and when" I get the time. Usually I dedicate an hour or so a night to it. I have no screens to show as of yet that don't spoil the story, but so far, I have completed 2 missions and am half way through the 3rd.
Also, I'd like to open something to discussion here <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> (even though I've already decided to do it).
I have decided to "ret con" the ending of my mod so it differs a little from what you all saw at the begining of Commission Mod Part 1. Some dialogue will be changed, and some characters may be missing/replaced from the scene.
If you are unaware of what a "ret con" is then feel free to educate yourself here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retroactive_continuity:39fktxn9). And if you still are unsure. Then some examples of "ret conning" are...
Mafia's ending scene - In Mafia, the two men who kill Tommy are anonymous. Where as in Mafia II, they are revealed to be Vito and Joe.
Half Life 2 - Valve "ret conned" a lot of minor background characters from Half life into main characters in Half Life 2 (Barney Calhoun, Dr. Kliener, Eli Vance, Dr. Magenson etc)
Pretty much any "slasher" movie (Halloween films are best example here. Where the baddie appears to be dead and is then revealed to be alive in the next movie).
So yeah, anyway, what do you guys think of my idea to "ret con" the ending of Commission Mod a little? I'd love to hear your feedback <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">
Hope you're all well <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">

Not a bad idea.It's a good end for the next start, and the storyline could be longer and interesting.It's will be a good idea, if you will want to continue or start a new mission mod.
Anyway I like this idea <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink.png" alt="(//wink.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">
Well,from the beginning of the part 1 i always thought that he wont die.That it will turn out differently.There is always a twist isnt there <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/tongue.png" alt="(//tongue.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/tongue@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> .But nice to see that you are considering this after all those years (//bigwink.gif) :<img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">
Thank you both for your kind replies. The "retcon" of the ending will go ahead as planned <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">
Now, for a new question. (sorry for turning my mod topic into a Q&A, but I feel my fans feedback is important)
Incase people are unaware. After part 3 is released, I plan to release The Commission Mod: Collection Pack. With all 3 mods bundled into one MASSIVE file. Which will include an alternate ending to part 2.
The question is this.
Would any of you like me to put developer's commentary in the collection pack? so that as you play you have the choice to hear me talk about things such as...
How I got the mod idea, what I like about it, what I feel I could have done better, my plans for the future, and how I feel about the mod as a whole.
Kind of like what Valve have done with Half-Life, Left 4 Dead and Portal.
If you think its a good idea, let me know. And if not, then also let me know <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> I'd love to hear the feedback so I can act upon it.
Happy posting guys and gals.

P.S - Part 3 is coming along nicely. 4 missions have been made so far. Just hang in there, soon the mod will be complete. But I am busy, and am taking my time with the final part of this mod. Its been 3 years now, I am not about to rush things.
Yeah, I think that would be good ruby.
hi
your part 1 is awesome,but your part 2 download link shows no file found by gamefront what i do
Hey all. Long time no see.
Just a heads up, the final part of The Commission Mod (Part III) is finished. But not being released yet as I have decided to go back and fix a few of the bugs in the previous parts now I have the time as the project is done <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">
All CM downloads are off the internet for the time being, when I feel they are up to standard Parts 1 and 2, along with 3 will be uploaded again.
Also, I am holding back part 3 because I am working on an alternate ending for parts 2 and 3 respectively.
You got a big bag of goodies comin' your way, players <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> You just gotta hold out a while longer.
In the meantime however, here's a trailer for The Commission Mod - Part III <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">

Hi Ruby!
Glad to see you were able to finish you work after so many years. I'll make a post on the front page for you.
So. It's been a week. You've all had a chance to play. What do you think of The Commission Mod in its 100% finished glory? Feedback time, people!
Good and bad, let me have it all <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="(//smile.gif)" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20"> like both barrels of a lupara to the chest.

Like I said earliear. Story and atmosphere is GENIAL! But technical things are very annoying.
Why don't you joined someone to team? You could do storyline and scripting and somebody else can do modeling,
Second thing, bugs: How can I completely kill all the people in bar, including Morello and my buddies, and game continue running, like everything is OK? :cheer:
