Hi, I'm new here and I was wondering if it is possible to make a mod where Jimmy flies by holding the space bar or something like that. Or maybe a mod that controls the jump height and distance.
Thanks :)
-
I can control that by removing his gravity, and also teleporting him upwards through lua.
Gravity also controls skateboard jumps too. I demo'ed that in this video around 5:20.

Wow! That's amazing! So are your other mods as well.
Which file needs to be modded in order to remove Jimmy's gravity? I am only familiar with skin and fighting style mods.
-
There are some trainers that allows jimmy to fly (or change gravity?).

I did it through lua scripting. Basically, that's a decompiled version of the .lur files within the Scripts.img file.

Any trainers you can direct me to? Because I have not yet found one that makes Jimmy fly.
-
No trainers exist that actually allow flying.
I have been working on a ingame trainer that is basicly a custom lua script that loads like any mission using the arcade machine in the boys dorm...but this trainer actually just uses the built in cheats that bully has.
There is no way currently of enabling the cheats without redoing some of the lua scripts due to the fact that the cheats can only be accessed via the debug mode of the game and that can only be done if you have a copy of bully that is compiled with the debug flag on otherwise debug mode cannot be entered.
I have however managed to enter the debug mode menu system without the debug mode flag being needed but to get things working properly...I have to rewrite the entire debug menu system which I have been doing very slowly since the missing lua source from the partially decompiled scripts takes a lot of guessing to get things exactly as rockstar did them. While i can simply just redo the scripts my way...I prefer sticking to the exact way rockstar used this way things are a true source and not a hacked together one.

Sorry to continue the thread after... 20 days :happy: hehe. But, what exactly is lua scripting?
I am relatively new at modding and haven't done anything beyond modding the ide file (I think that is called hex editing) and the pedstats file.
So maybe someone can explain to me in simple terms whether this is possible or not, or at least explain what MadmaN was trying to say.
Thanks. :D

Lua is a scripting language.
In the Bully files, you'll find an .img file called Scripts full of .lur files. .lur files are actually encrypted .lua files...thankfully, a known modder named Fred Tetra got most of the files partially decompiled (about 70% of the file or so, on average).
I don't know if I can do a "flying" mod with an animation, but what I can do is elevate and lower Jimmy's position on the map without him falling.

LUA is the script of Bully.
If you don't know what it means, it basicly loads & deloads characters, what is said by characters, animations & various things for missions & arcade games like time limits & trouble meter****
****: I'm a GTA modder, so I may not be 100%, since Bully has various GTA "tastes" I should guess the script is kind of the same.
But EVERY game has a script.
-
Every game is also packed with something, has different source codes, engine, text strings, etc.
But I know that this mod is possible to do.
Nothing is impossible when it comes to coding games.
-
As long as you understand the engine clearly....
-
Well engine isn't the problem but the text strings are specially the text string.
Its hard to get those bastards to read correctly if its packed lol
-
So this is going to take a heck of a lot more work than I expected... :/
-
Fly mod is already done.
Its just isn't released publicly yet.
-
Aww :(
Why do they wait for these things though? Not trying to be pushy, but...

We wait to release mods like this due to the fact that while the mod actually works......it is not in a user friendly format for all of the normal gamers in the community to just pop in and instantly get working.
Plus Red and I are VERY busy with trying to get other things done and ready.....Red has his own mods he is trying to complete plus doing the fighting requests that people are wanting......and I am trying to finish bug testing a new .img file tool plus finish the first issue of bully modding magazine which has a big feature about lua modding and some basics.....plus get the custom lua compiler out and some of the stock script sources and some tutorials so people can start learning how to do lua modding.
I also have several unfinished mods I also am working very hard on such as the player selector that everyone has been literally begging for ever since NTAuthority showcased a video showing his player selector which was a script hook....where my mod uses the built in lua scripting and is being delayed from being finished properly due to a few minor issues that I cant seem to sort out.
