Hello all! The 7 year anniversary fast approaches, and to conclude the year, I will be hosting the /jp/ GTA server on December 25th, at around 9 PM or 10 PM EST, as well as on the New Year (31st) at around the same time.Please look forward to it, and Merry Christmas!
I got distracted by the new captcha and forgot to add the subject.
>>50479382Baka
>>50479343Now this truly feels like Christmas! Glad that this can be hosted again.Here is the Cast of Fossilized Wonders converted in.https://drive.google.com/file/d/1F1HLmAkMnev5_QQ0YeMk_b9Ni6IzD8wX/view?usp=sharing
>>50480754Brilliant, thanks! I'm surprised these characters all got models already. And glad to see you're still around after all these years anon.
>>50479343Great news, I can't wait to play this again!
>9/10 PM ESTThat's 3/4 am my time, I'll prolly be asleep then.You niggers have fun. That's a threat.
I hope I can be the one on the right
I don't think I have the internet to be able to play, but I'll try to come.
>>50480881Just wake up at 5am anon. That's what I usually do.>>50481261Call your ISP and demand a solution right away. jpsie xmas meeting is serious bussiness.
>>50481544I guess I can use data, but I don't know much I'll have to download either.
The most exciting time of the year has finally come!
Family will be staying on these days...I hope everyone has fun, not a threat, just a wish.
>>50485425If it's possible, I'll try to host one more day afterwards (probably a friday or something) for those that can't make the holidays like I've sometimes done before. I'm an unc as the kids nowadays say so making the freetime to host is a bit harder than it used to be for me, too.That being said, if my efforts this year pay off, I'll have something very funny to share when I host this time next year that's relevant to the server. Hope other anons have had a decent year so far too.
>>50479343It's really been a whole year again....
>>50485507Damnit, I have to stay alive for another year.
It'll be my first time, what do I need?
>>50485507Thank you cause I have an 8 hour shift that starts like two hours before the MTA session starts so I don't think by the time I get back home I'll be able to really participate, but the day after is infact my off-day My year has been quite indecent but things are looking brighter so I think next year will be more than decent by the end
>>50489726It's pretty straightforward. Grab a copy of original, not remastered GTASA, from anywhere and downgrade it to version 1.0 if it isn't already. Then download MTA from https://multitheftauto.com/Practically everything on this server is OC, so since things are tweaked until (relatively) last minute most of the time, a pre-download will be posted closer to the server being hosted tomorrow along with instructions.
>>50489852By 1.0 do you mean 1.0 US? (Hoodlum)
>>50489878Anything that says it's SA 1.0 should work just fine, so you can use pretty much whatever. Even if it's not a proper 1.0 SA, it's pretty easy to downgrade. If you're really unsure about it, this is the download I've seen most anons here use:https://archive.org/details/gta-sa-preinstalled-v-1But like anything, trust your own judgement and use what's comfortable for you/whatever you think is least-likely to give you a bitcoin miner. I've always used an original physical copy of SA, so I can only really mention what I've seen most other anons here suggest.
>>50489942Okay, thank you. I already got mine from a link in a reddit thread which seems to have been up for 3 years already, just downloading a downgrader now to revert it to v1.0 if that doesn't work I'll use that link.
>>50489942How do you download this?
>>50479343Wait! On behalf of the Vote Fairy thread, I come to humbly ask you about how you imported Kitagawa's fairy models over to English? SA. I am a complete brainlet n00b when it comes to GTA modding, but have interest in using them for Machinima purposes for that thread's future endeavors!Apologies if it isn't appropriate to ask, but I have been holding onto the untranslated Japanese files for months fruitlessly banging my head like a neanderthal.
>>50479343Can we run this locally yet?
>>50490069Can't be of much help in this area myself, I can only really parrot that it's what I've seen commonly posted in the past. Although to reiterate, practically any original version of SA will work as long as it's version 1.0. You can try searching through some old threads if you're still struggling as I've seen a lot of different uploads posted in the past. >>50490104Can you provide a little more context on what you mean anon? I'm not sure if it helps, but if you're looking for the fairy models, I got them many years ago from here: https://w.atwiki.jp/gtamod2/pages/32.html#ZZIf you're looking to rig models for the game, you can use the dragonFF blender plugin for editing/exporting stuff.>>50490422I said at the beginning that I would upload everything I've ever worked on for this server when I felt that it had reached a suitable closing point, or if I simply could no longer do so. I still plan to uphold that old promise, and barring any extraordinary circumstance compelling me to host for longer, I think the 10 year anniversary will be a pretty suitable curtain call for this event.For now, I still like seeing new reactions to old things I messed with, and treating it as a sort of yearly get-together for the board to blow stuff up.
>>50490104I'm pretty sure we have the fairy models because I distinctly remember playing a couple of gamemodes where the two teams are different fairiesOh speaking of models>>50480754Tenkyuu, can't wait to play as Nina. Though thinking of it last time I played we played the prototype gamemode and the models for the Chireiden blackwatch weren't working. Not sure what the bug / problem source is, I suspect the models just weren't in the last install so is there an independent install I can get for that too?
Happy to be able to play again.
How long is each play session usually?
>>50490104For installing Kita's fairy characters in single player mode, you just install them like any other skin, this tutorial is the quickest, easiest way https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8XM3Sz5xqc
may this sesh be blessed by the most cutie Marisa to date
>>50489726There's this old guide but the download links still work https://pastebin.com/qTBwJ1EB
>>5049092610-12 hours
Ain't readin thru the thread lol but I wanna play so just gimme the tl;dr on>where do i download>what else do i download
how long until the mod download is up?
>>50493355In that case, I'll go to sleep and wake up early for it
>>50493446-Go internet archive, download San Andreas-Go to MTA website download MTA-Go find the pastebin with the full 2hu MTA mod download-Follow the download instruction booklet-boot up the game to test you didn't fuck everything up like I did and have to reinstall the whole thing again-Enjoy the wonders of a /jp/sie Christmas
>>50494251>-Go find the pastebin with the full 2hu MTA mod downloadDoesn't that get updated every year? I thought we had to wait for it to get posted here
>>50494262Yeah, don't know what anon is talking about. There is no such pastebin.
>>50494294Misremembered it was a megalinkand like yeah I know but this guy is being obtuse and not wanting to follow the instructions posted like two messages above him
Trying to run the one from Internet Archive since it's for higher resolutions but I'm getting this error
>>50494462Might just use a standard v1.0 installation. Not certain how "essential" these included mods are.
>>50494462You're supposed to buy the game! Piracy is wrong!
>>50494462Try this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ttuZgrQqr1w
>>50494502I would if I still could but they removed it didn't they?
>>50494506Thank you
I'm going to take an hour nap, surely you guys don't do anything that soon right?
>>50494509https://store.rockstargames.com/game/buy-grand-theft-auto-the-trilogy?id=buy-grand-theft-auto-the-trilogy
>>50494492They are essential but for single player mode. MTA uses it's own launcher, so none of these extras are needed.
>>50494529Does this even work with MTA?>>50494509I can still install my old copy on Steam but they removed a bunch of music a few years ago, so I always ended up finding a copy online. I suppose we could buy a copy secondhand.
>>50494524OP said around 10PM EST, you got plenty of time
What a shit starting time.
>>50494593American board
All I wanted for Christmas was to play GTA with my /jp/ bros, and come Christmas day my state is hit with torrential rain causing an internet outage
>>50494558Of course! And if you have any problems, we'll always be here to help, but only if you buy the game!>>50494593Yeah, it should start at 2 AM instead
>>50494582Didn't he say 9-10?
I guess I'll be 3-4 hours late depending on when it starts, I hope I don't miss too much...
>>50480754Great work, they all look nice in-game! Ubame and Chimi's models are really high quality.
Is there any way to hide your flag on the scoreboard?
>>50494786There is a scoreboard? And you can see flags on it?
>>50494796There was in a server I joined earlier today, don't know if it's a plugin or a MTA thing.
>>50494796>>50494786There is a scoreboard but you can't see any flags on it.
>>50494786the host hides flags on his server
>>50494804We're all Brazilian
>>50494783How do you already have the mods?
>>50494815I make some of them.
Pre-download will be up soon, along with the server shortly after! Expect things to be a little ad-hoc/low-effort today, haven't had a lot of time to prepare this year and I think my RAM might actually be failing.I'll give my usual admonishments, but as always, behave yourselves! Admin is an old and mean grinch now, so it's not as easy as it used to be for me to wrangle 40+ belligerent NEETs as it used to be.
>>50494829Cute Reimu.
waiting warmly~
>>50494833Since the great powers that be have elected to hard crash my computer every time I try to make a zip archive of today's pre-download, rather than give myself an aneurysm about it and delay the server for several hours on Christmas day, I'm opting for the easy way out, and using the anniversary pre-download!https://mega.nz/file/a4EHkAaK#fhAsh84O3PBPax2NPJMvXSWoik6vtKt3glxB6hcjwhAIf you were here for the run in April you don't need to download this as you should already have everything, but otherwise:To use: extract and simply drop the folder called "mods" into the MTASA root directory (wherever your .exe. is, usually program files by default) merge and overwrite as needed.
Server doko?
Waiting...
>>50494833just download more ram
>>50494863It is UP. Expect super christmas bugginess!Name: /jp/dreamPass: MeidoIP: 68.205.10.187TO REGISTER: Type a username and password and then hit register. Then login.F9 contains a list of basic controls and commands if you need a refresher on anything.
Server crash?
>>50494962well that explains why we rarely used that map. It crashed the server! Back up in a second.
This time I am the one on the right
Thank you for hosting, I had a great first time!
>>50481261Yeah, my internet is too horrible to download and I'm out of data. Have fun everyone, I'll be drinking alone for Christmas.
I had fun. Thank you for hosting.
WHERE'S EVERYONE
Thanks for host!
and that is a wrap. As always, thanks to everyone new and old for always being such good sports. Goodnight, and have the merriest of christmases!>>50495424There's always next time! I'll try to do a few more brief hosts on the new years and sometime afterwards, barring any unforeseen busywork I end up having to deal with.
Thanks for the host! Now, what am I going to do with 130gb of footage?
>>50495436Thanks for hosting!
We should do more races next time, hot dog was a blast.
>>50495437rewatch when u feel scare to rember happy day
Piano
There are very few times I feel as happy as when I play some mta with /jp/ thank you guys.
Unfortunately, none of my camera pictures were saved since I didn't have "Put camera photos in the user GTA user files folder" option enabled. Darn. Did take a few hotkey shots. >>50495436Merri Christmas, and thanks for hosting again.
File is too big, so uploaded it to litterbox. Not everyone is in this group photo. Glorious 4k!
Dammit I literally just got home from work>>50485507Is this still on the cards?
>>50495498Man whoops, I'm tired.https://litter.catbox.moe/focsrurm4db05hhr.png
>>50495503Cool, the group photo from 2019 and from 2025 in one.
For a brief moment I thought this session killed my very expensive GPU...
>>50495574Utsuho cameo
That was really fun, thanks for hosting ^^They're hosting a christmas Skydrift special tomorrow (tonight technically) so I hope to see some of you guys there too
>>50495618I'll be there for sure...
Another night spent with everyone dancing parallels within a diorama of memories and fun. I wish you would never leave us, but i guess that's the way that it goes so i won't make any fuss.Thank you for hosting again!
I wasn't able to join tonight but I'll try to join on new year's if you do host then
>>50496041Same
Thanks for hosting!>>50495574Can't believe I missed out on this because my dumb body gave way to sleep. I'll make sure to sleep in extra late next time so that I can stay the whole session.
>>50495574That's normal SA behaviour.
Anybody know a good throwaway website to post videos? Got a bunch from yesterday.
>>50496419Catbox if they're under 200mb iircStreamable maybe? I've never used them myself but I see the links frequently.
>>50496419catbox works well for that
>>50496426I tried streamable since it lets you play them online. This is all I got yesterday, enjoy it anons!https://streamable.com/7adaephttps://streamable.com/kdbl72https://streamable.com/aw45m1https://streamable.com/glj31phttps://streamable.com/42yijphttps://streamable.com/djn5u3https://streamable.com/p3sjhjhttps://streamable.com/rqwkkghttps://streamable.com/y3ffg8https://streamable.com/srpg2xhttps://streamable.com/kfs4rthttps://streamable.com/ej0kllhttps://streamable.com/u5uqt5
>>50496556Very nice highlights! That boat ride looks fun, I joined too late.
>>50495437Decided to just clip the moments I thought were worth uploading. Although I got pretty much the whole session, a lot of the footage was just idling in spawn/world anyway but there I got some highlights from there too. Mega link below:https://mega.nz/folder/cTxyla5K#kOahBX4jxzSOfEW2o67lIA>>50495441Certainly will.>>50496556>LemmingTrainI'm glad someone got footage from the other side! I think only one anon made it without crashing. Thanks for sharing.
>>50496556>>50497329with so much footage you could make a whole video like that gensokyo drift one
>>50497329Could you reupload those to google drive or something? 8gigs is way too much for mega due to the download limit.
Goddammit I totally forgot about the server and like a dumbass spending the day doing nothing instead, fuck me. Please tell me there's going to be another session for new year please
ahahaha playing games with random anon retards you dont know is so special to you peopleget some actual friends holy shit
50498483I will paint your anus white
>>50498235Pretty sure there was one more person who was recording too so there's definitely more. I thought about throwing all the clips into a montage or something. That or just combining all the footage together and just throwing it up on youtube. I'll think about it.>>50498252Forgot about that, here you go: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1nADW0LUXubjP1cXlsosx5WYXJ7qH6w_T>>50498467On the 31st, it's in the op.
>>50496556these are great
I couldn't stay for very long due to having to work the following day, but it was fun.
>>50498485It's hard to imagine anyone getting actually mad at low effort trolling when it's pretty obvious they've never used the site before 2020 with how weak said trolling is
>>50495500>Is this still on the cards?I was wondering why people were saying I might host again today and in my delirium last night I hadn't even realized that today was actually Friday, and thought anons were just joking around. To extra clarify I meant after the new years, so maybe like the 2nd or sometime over that weekend I can host again if I don't have any extra work come up.
Judging from the in-game chat I know this hobby of mine isn't everybody's cup of tea, but I'd be lying if I didn't say I get inspired by a lot of the things that happened yesterday, thought I'd share.>>50496556By the way I forgot to mention this but Streamable links go away after a few days so if you guys want to keep these you should download them before that happens.>>50496703>>50498645Thanks! Like I said it was my first time so I wasn't sure of how many of the things I thought were funny were just regular occurrences to you guys by now.>>50497329>>50498513Oh nice you got the fairy flight! I forgot to record that one.>>50498762How about Saturday the 3rd? I'd imagine most people are free on a Saturday/early Sunday.
>>50498513>On the 31st, it's in the op.I'm blind apparently, good to know!
>>50498762Ah alright, pretty sure that's my next off-day actually lol>>50498789I'll be honest dude like my opinions of it have zigzagged from "it's all crap and the people who use it are all douches" to "maybe it could be good and these guys who use it are nice" to "okay it's literally only these guys are cool and I came to my initial conclusion for damn good reasons" >If you guys want to keep these you should download them before that happensGood to know, I obsessively like to archive these kinds of things
>>50498789Don't usually care too much for AI stuffs but I think it's hard to really feel annoyed about it when it's shared with such innocently sincere intentions. You should think about making some actual scribbles of stuff too though, even stick figure drawings would probably be well-liked
>>50498789Dude I posted one of my gens in that 2huAI thread and you responded to it. Are we frens now? :D
>>50498880>okay it's literally only these guys are cool and I came to my initial conclusion for damn good reasonsThat's a fair assessment, can't blame you for it, there're a lot of people giving the hobby a bad name and I hardly ever interact with the community around it outside of the anons here and a few people on AIbooru (which is surprisingly very chill) likely for the same reasons as you if I had to guess. I just really hate this stupid rivalry between traditional media and AI, I get why it exists but it always just devolves into people on either side trying to one-up one another while completely missing the appeal of the other person's hobby.>>50498930>You should think about making some actual scribbles of stuff too though, even stick figure drawings would probably be well-liked.I've tried to learn to draw before, took it seriously too (had teachers and friends involved and everything) but frankly I just didn't enjoy it, it wasn't even a matter of sucking and not liking the way things turned out when they were done, I knew that was a part of it and I'm very stubborn. I just didn't like the process of drawing itself, it frankly wasn't for me and I saw little point in continuing to do something if I didn't enjoy it, I got to a point where the only thing keeping me going was how stubborn I was and the moment I realized that I stopped.That said though I always have a lot on my mind when it comes to Touhou and I want to share it with others, AI just-so-happened to be the perfect outlet for that, for me anyways.I don't mean to derail the thread into talking about this but I feel like there are a lot of misconceptions about AI art and I wouldn't mind discussing it with you guys sometime.
>>50498968It takes a little more than that to make friends for me but we're definitely not enemies!
>>50498513>8GBWorth it.
>>50498762Don't let us pressure you into hosting more than you want to. More is good, but hosting is exhausting, doubly so if you're empl*yed.
>>50498513You should look into Handbrake to size down your videos a bit. I would upload my recordings myself but I am just a bit lazy. I did once again record the entire session though so that's another 75gigs forever stored to my storage devices.
it would be so cool to have everyones perspective synchronized in a single video like a mega split screen truman show
>>50499031nice Tengu V Kappa gen think I remember playing as the Kappa on that map / mode last time I played>rivalry between traditional media and AIyeah that's the actual worse and I hope it gets better down the line as people mature. It's kind of funny that ZUN using sloppa for Th20 helped to partially break that rivalry in the Touhou fanbase at least, the man is just eternally based>>50499249I'll need to trawl back and find the convo again but someone from one of the altchans I visited during the hack figured out a method for massively compressing file sizes while keeping high visual and audio fidelitySame conversation I also found out you can set up something akin to Shadowplay for OBS which has small file sizes too and will be more compact in general by virtue of the fact that you are just saving clips of just your personal highlight moments
>>50498762>like the 2ndI fear that's too soon. Might be better on the 3rd or even next week, to have some time to recover from the all nighter.
>>50499497Yeah that was actually me who said that on one of those alt-chans haha, the program was also Handbrake I mentioned on that post. You just need to play around with the settings until you find something that works for you. For OBS there's a few macros you can set in order for the replay buffer to reset everytime you press record. Otherwise it will keep rerecording the same footage you already captured if it's still in the same time window (though it's just a personal annoyance of mine, using the replay buffer like normal works just fine).
>>50498762>>50499509How about hosting on (Orthodox) Christmas on January 7?
>>50499566Please no.
>>50499566That's a wednesday and I start work on the 6th, really bad timing
>>50498789Cute! Lets go wheelie again on New Years if I make it.
Does anybody have any screenshots they'd like me to img2img like picrel? All of mine are either too chaotic or have way too many people.>>50499497>nice Tengu V Kappa genWas one of my favorite gamemodes of the night honestly, alongside the checkpoint races.>ZUN using sloppa for Th20 helped to partially break that rivalry in the Touhou fanbase at leastUh did it? From what I've seen it either didn't change a thing or only worsened it.>>504995667th would be really bad for me as well, 2nd or 3rd would be much better.>>50501977It'd be really funny if we got a bunch of people with Mimi-chan bikes in spawn to all simultaneously wheelie into the wall.
>>50503083>Does anybody have any screenshots they'd like me to img2imgHow do you feel about trying your hand at this one? I do like how that riding Rika one turned out. A lot of mine are also just too chaotic really but I felt like the main focus of Pache in this one might be simple enough. Up to you to add the dancing Rika in the bg on top of the Okuu-mobile as well.
>>50503100Sure, looks kinda difficult but I'll give it a try nonetheless, will probably take some time though.
>>50503083>Uh did it?I think in the worst case situations you had the real tumblr-y / bluesky types either memoryhole it or announce they weren't going to like Touhou anymore but generally speaking I've seen a lot of people had to make some peace with it since ZUN used it even if they're still broadly against using AI, it's a very small step I guess but considering how strongly polarized things are with this topic it's a relatively huge one.>2nd or 3rd would be much betterUnfortunately my bosses have screwed me on that by announcing they're rescheduling my off-day and that I can't have it on a weekend (which those two dates fall on in my timezone) even though those are literally the only two dates available for an off-day since the rest are taken so what the hell?I'll make it for new years but fingers crossed things work out and I can be there for the follow up second sesh
>>50503100>>50503210Okay nevermind, turns out I severely overestimated how difficult it'd be because I'm not really used to working with img2img yet, here you go! Had to change the paintjob on the black car, though.>>50503289>you had the real tumblr-y / bluesky types either memoryhole it or announce they weren't going to like Touhou anymoreFrom my understanding that was the majority, even found a few people on /jp/ reacting the same way, but if I'm wrong then that's good.>I'll make it for new years but fingers crossed things work out and I can be there for the follow up second seshI thought the new years sesh was the second sesh? Either way I hope you're able to make it, you did go through the trouble of warning me after I missed out on last year's so it'd suck if you were the one who couldn't make it.
>>50503388this will be MTA graphics in 2013
>>50490104Did you manage to import them?
>>50503388Cute Patcho.
What time should we expect for the next session to start on the 31st?
>>50510789I would assume a similar time to the Christmas session
>>50510789>>50514202You mean as long as I don't get blackout drunk with my friends at the casino, I can still join the New Year's Eve session the next day? w00t
