Hi!
I´m glad to release my first beta addon. This car called "Savanna" from GTA:SA.  http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/yay.gif
This version is still buggy. Any comments are welcome.

OMG!

That's cool to know that's possible to import vehicles form SA. There are lots of really nice custom made cars for SA available - many of which would perfectly fit the North. I can already see some old soviet cars (Moskvitch, Volga, Lada) rolling through the roads of Nort Sahrani...(he, imagination) http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/wink_o.gif
Think that a modding team called Criminal Russia made most of them - maybe it would be doable to get them to ArmA some day... http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/icon_rolleyes.gif

Nice one. Can you provide information how you have done it?

Nice one. Can you provide information how you have done it?
Of course i can. First you need:
-ZModeler2 but its not 4free it costs $53 (USD).
-IMG exporter (img tool 2.0)
-.txd exporter (TXD Workshop)

I.
1. export the .dff & .txd files from gtasa
2. open Zmodeler import the .dff model
3. export 3ds model with Zmodeler
II.
1. export the textures from the .txd file & convert then convert them into .pac format
2. import 3ds model in O2 rename the texture .pac files that they´re right.
3. edit the car with O2

I´ve started to convert the Bus from SA because i don´t really like the bus in Arma. http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/icon_rolleyes.gif ^^

If those are direct ports from the game and not any mods, they might be illegal O:.

At the moment im working on the bus but if i release it, i´ll fix the bugs of the Savanna (and i´ll try to make a script for drive-by and/or hydraulic for lowriding). But only if it´s possible and if someone could help me to make the scripts. http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/nener.gif

Edit: Well ok maybe the default car is bad having in ArmA (although I must say that I love it&#33; ) , maybe make a slight change in something to get away with it (so that it&#39;s not 100% the same)...

If you are able to convert the cars from SA try contacting one of the addonmakers from the GTA scene; maybe they&#39;ll give permission to use their cars; it&#39;s always better & safer than to mess with copyrighted material http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/wink_o.gif

Very promising, but would it be possible to fix the bug where you can&#39;t hit people sitting in the cars when shooting at them? At the mo the damage is applied to the car, not the passengers.

I&#39;ve been a member of GTAforums.com, possibly one of the most popular GTA base forums, so I could PM a few of the memebers there and ask for their permission. Just give me the username and I&#39;ll PM them.

Well, I&#39;m no expert SmellyJelly - but I think if someone&#39;s made a cool car or pickup truck - could you ask them if it can be converted?

A good Pickup (where 6 can sit in the back) would be great for SF insertions, militia trucks, etc...

The Default Hiluxes are good - but they only hold 2 people http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/sad_o.gif

Thanks mate - good luck with it&#33;

Is it possible to get the shocks working? I found a few offroad models that could be fun.

If anyone wants to look for anything, just go to GTAGarage (http://www.gtagarage.com/mods/index.php), click GTA: San Andreas on the left, and then on "show" click cars or trucks.

I would love to see a mini in ArmA. Remember the green mini in OFP Resistance? I loved bombing around in that. Maybe one from the GTA website could be used?

The nearest now is the hatchback, but thats to big to be a mini lol.

Time to hide my friend, because it doesn&#39;t matter to greedy game-publishers if it&#39;s non-commercial or not, you&#39;re still at a large risk&#33;

Good work though, even if some people&#39;s not going to appriciate it http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/sad_o.gif
