Description
Spyro's Woodland Adventure
This mod brings the level Summer Forest from the classic PlayStation 1 game Spyro 2 into Grand Theft Auto 5. Created as a learning exercise in map creation, this mod utilizes a low-poly model from a retro game for PC friendliness.
Features:
- Low PC requirements - even older graphics cards should run it smoothly.
- Genuine Spyro 2 model with embedded textures.
- Near-perfect collision for a realistic experience.
- Accurate water levels, replicating the original game.
- Compatible with Map Editor or Menyoo (Map Editor recommended).
Due to map placement, the gliding area is filled with water. Simply jump down and swim across!
Installation
Requirements: Map Editor or Menyoo.
1. Drag and drop the "update" folder into your GTA 5 directory.
2. Using OpenIV, navigate to:
update\update.rpf\common\data
3. Extract dlclist.xml.
4. Open dlclist.xml and add the following line beneath "dlcpacks:\patchday13ng\" (as of this publication):
dlcpacks:\spyro2\
5. Save and re-import dlclist.xml back into your update.rpf.
6. In-game, activate Map Editor (R3 + LB on controller; F7 on keyboard/mouse) and go to "Load Map". Type "summerforest" and the map will load.
Bugs
- Water Issues: Water may occasionally spill onto the floor near the main lake. This is due to map placement and weather conditions (rainy/thunderstorm weather exacerbates the issue).
- Transparency: From above or the side, the model appears transparent. This is a limitation of the original 1999 PlayStation 1 model.
