YOBO OR LOBO? (Grand Theft Auto 3)
This is a pretty influential game from my childhood. Grand Theft Auto 3 was a game I learned how to seriously mod back in the Windows Vista days.
I learned how to use extraction and compression tools.
I learned hex editing software to target health, armor, and time levels.
I learned how to use img editing software like Imgburn and Imgtool to edit ISO and IMG files for loading the games with mods, because back in the day I used virtual discs for loading without a noCD crack so I didn't damage my physical disc.
This game came out during the wild west days of obtaining music, but I learned to load custom music. In doing so, I learned different codecs and compression methods, because the music files were never in the same format and bit rates.
Another thing I really learned to use was a big mix of anti virus softwares like avast and AVG, because back in the day getting mods for this game most likely came with some adware junk that did weird shit to your system.
All of that was important because, at the time, I was restricted to a pair of 40gb hard drives. Storing most of the files for the multiple installations of the game took up quite a bit more storage than any of the other games I played at the time.
There was so much I learned in my time with GTA 3, and I still use those tools to this day with mods and file organization in other games.
This is the notorious mafia backed crazy uncle of 3D open world crime games.
But for me, it was a huge accomplishment in learning power usage of my PCs.
This is vanilla GTA 3, without mods or any optimizations to change how it loads. It runs good enough on Windows 10, so I didn't mess with anything other than the render distance and audio levels.
Also, I recorded this using a laptop running intel hd 4000 and using the incorrectly adjusted built-in microphone. I'm not sorry. Don't @ me.
