Talk:Item Definition

I've updatet the Object-Flags, and added the tool I created to calculate them. Would be nice if anyone could test for some new! ;) --Aschratt 14:38, 20 May 2007 (CDT)

Disposing and Adaption

This article should perhaps be rewritten or at least disposed and adapted for IV. For example see 2dfx, AMAT, MLO, TREE or TANM --Aschratt 12:37, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

I agree with possibly making a IV only definition page due to the IV ide running in a different structure order to the current layout --Gforce 01:56 22 July 2009

Well I don't exactly know how far the IV format does differ from the current one, but I guess the lines do only got a different format - I suggest creating articles for each section and then write the IV format there. Just like we did for the IPL sections. --Aschratt - oO 11:55, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Article rewriting steps and timeline

• Writing articles for sections
  • OBJS – Update --Aschratt - oO 12:38, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
  • TOBJ – Update --Aschratt - oO 13:08, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
  • ANIM – Write this article. GTA IV format missing.
  • PEDS – IV format missing
  • WEAP – finished. --Aschratt - oO 09:26, 20 August 2010 (UTC)
  • CARS – IV format missing, perhaps some more detailed information about limitations and stuff...
  • HIER – Apparently used to build up hierarchies for objects (?). Format appears like this:
    

    ParentID, modelName, textureName, string (gxtKey?), float

    ParentID, modelName, textureName

  • 2DFX – Incomplete?
  • PATH_(IDE_Section)
  • TREE
  • TANM
  • MLO
  • AMAT
• This article
  • 1. ! Confirm 'description' and 'version' of the sections
  • 2. Add description for TREE, MLO and AMAT
  • 3. ! Confirm 'description' and 'version' of the flags
  • 4. Find out redirects to now removed article sections (e.g. IDE#OBJS) – update or delete.
• Article Map System
  Write an article descriping the interaction of the various files like IDE, IPL, object.dat their sections and so on, in detail.

Can anyone please take a few minutes and to finish the confirmation points? If each point is confirmed remove the rewrite template from the article. – Thank you! --Aschratt - oO 11:55, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

(IV) procobj.ide

I do not belive, that there is any difference between the formats inside the procobj.ide and any other IDE for GTA IV - also I do not see a difference written in here (instead of the WDD link is set to "null", which does not change the format itself). So is there any reason to keep the Item_Definition#Procobj.ide section? --Aschratt - oO 09:40, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Removed for now... if anyone wants it back, than take a look to the previous revisions and copy it from there. --Aschratt - oO 11:56, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

IDE Flags

Would it be better to place the object flags in a template? If there's any change to the table, you won't have to find and edit each page, just only the template.--Spaceeinstein 10:50, 20 August 2010 (UTC)
