Vice City Stories PC adaptation

The goal of the project is to make a game with keyboard and mouse controls and help people who do not have a gamepad. The controls themselves are similar to the original GTA Vice City (PC version).

Corrections in 05.2024 build 3005:

• Fixed pistol and sub weapon animations. (PSP version bug, sometimes the player was flattened when running with a weapon).
• Improvements in missions at 60FPS: "In the Air Tonight" and "Vice Sights" camera flash has been returned. (In the original, the game crashes at 60FPS in these missions. The particle effect was adapted to 60FPS. In previous versions we had to cut the effect.)
• Fixed cutscene lighting (Unnatural shine, possibly a PS2 mod bug).
• Fixed the cutscene in the mission "Shakedown" (the bug only occurred at 60FPS).
• Mission "Accidents Will Happen" fixed a minor bug in the cutscene. (Occurred only with 60FPS, the car fell down from the springboard.)
• Mission "Marked Man" bug fixed at 60FPS. (Sometimes we could shoot down Martinez's men in a cutscene.)
Mission "Conduct Unbecoming" fixed a bug in the cutscene. (Martinez's head rotated strangely, almost imperceptibly.)
• Removed involuntary running with weapons. (when reloading while holding w, the player sometimes ran, a bug of the PSP original).
• Improved game stability.

Corrections in 06.2024 build 0606:

• Mission "Unfriendly Competition". Fixed cutscene at 60FPS. Armando Mendez sat out of his chair. (The bug is related to 60FPS).
• Mission "Burning Bridges". Fixed a bug in the cutscene with Lance's flying motorcycle. (60FPS bug).
• Mission "Purple Haze" removed strange lines from the effect. (PS2 mod bug).
• Mission "Taxi" improved tipping time (60FPS is now easier to get).
• Missions "Crash!" and "Rush!" have been finalized. (Improved transport physics, making it easier to earn money).
• The garage fix has been returned.

Corrections in 08.2024 build 0308:

• Changed the helicopter camera. More convenient and closer to the original Vice City.
• Added missing text from PS2 version.
• Minor fixes in the mission "High Wire". There have been many complaints that users could not pick up the box and therefore it was moved slightly.
• The camera speed in the weapon sight has been slightly changed.
• Fixed a bug with saving. Emulator bug, the game only loaded the first slot, but now the newest save.

Corrections in 09.2024 build 0809:

• Added the ability to squat on the "C" button. (Similar to GTA Vice City, can help in shootouts. The original VCS does not have this feature.)
• The button for turning on the cheat menu has been changed to “F2” (Now you don’t need to hold down two buttons at the same time, but just press “F2”).
• Updated cheat menu to the latest version (Compiled from source code).

Corrections in 12.2024 build 2412:

• Changes in the interface.
• The display of the time scale in the mission The Exchange has been fixed, and the time has also been adjusted to 60fps.
• Fixed a minor scene bug in The Exchange mission. (Noted recently this was related to 60 FPS).
• The startup file has been changed. Virustotal no longer complains about the project. (For some reason, there were previously false positives for one of the files and now a different launch method is used through a shortcut with the necessary parameters).
• Optimized cleo creaks fixes.

Note:DO NOT CHANGE the emulator settings and DO NOT USE cheat menu functions that you do not use, this can lead to disruption of the game stability, control failure and other errors. The assembly is already well configured and there is no need to change anything in it, this can lead to the problem described above.
