Pedestrian Mod.

[USA Trucker]

OK. Since the last Pedestrian Mod thread was a not up to par, and had to be closed down twice, I have PM'd several people with my suggestions, and asked of theirs that had unresolved issues with this mod. I have evaluated their concerns, and inputs with regards toward this mod. The last thread was full of confusion, contradictions, incomplete instructions, lack of cooperation with their partners, and general bugs with the Rig'n'Roll program itself. Therefore I have decided to create this new one from scratch, and keeping only one Pedestrian Mod that had better instructions, and the least problematic.

If anyone else wishes to enhance, or create a different Pedestrian Mod with good instructions, and report known issues, or bugs, please do so. If you can't handle constructive criticism, or complaints about your Mods, then please don't post them. There was one good Pedestrian Mod from Nicu_n21 that will be posted below this post. It was well written, and had the least complaints. It needs some tweaking as reported by other members. So I'll let him address them as the situation warrants.

[nicu_n21]

Sorry for the delay

1: DOWNLOAD THE SCRIPT FROM: http://www.sendspace.com/file/ap98if,
2:THEN REPLACE THE FILE NAMED script.jar from your main directory of the game . the default lacation is:C:\Program Files\RigNRoll\Data
3:then download and install latest Java
4:rename the folder "Jvm" in the game folder located in "C:\Program Files\RigNRoll" in the "Jvm2"
5:create a new folder "Jvm" -
6:go to the directory C: \ Program Files \ Java \ jre6 \
7:There are 2 folders "bin" and "lib" and copy them into the folder "Jvm" located in your main directory of the game

Now Java, which uses the game "updated"

the original file is: coming soon
the file which has been modified is: http://www.sendspace.com/file/ap98if

Those who have problems with pedestrians, they have because their computers, no because of the game or the modification. If their computers not give them permission to play the game at the maximum details, then, I advise they not to make this change.

respect for all the work you guys make, but tbh what is this ?
How are we 'noobs' able to even understand how to use the mod ?

You should number your steps and dont write everything 20 times, I really understand a hell lot of english, but the things mentioned here are really a maze !

Simplifie this please, do we only have to download the latest script link or the first and do we have to use java or just replace 1 file and do we have to make folders or not ???



Pls make this CLEAR!

[USA Trucker]

@Lolsmurf,

Nicu_n21 has done this in post #2. What other details do you need?

[Lolsmurf]

This is what I wanted

I saw another page before this one, anyway nice job, now it is very clear

That was my first post on this thread, and was retrieved from the original, and I asked Nicu for advise, and/or corrections. I have since gotten them, and deleted those upon Nicu's request. I can't respond as fast as I would like to everyone, because I work for a living too. Sometimes I'm a little slow, but you know from past experience that I respond as quickly as I can, and I try to leave no question un-answered. Just be a little patient. ;)

[pook]

The problem was.....

nicu_n21:
Please. What program to open and edit. "jar" file??

[USA Trucker]

The problem was.....

I want to stay on-topic here. Let's contribute to the "Podestrian Mod" thread as it is. We are now getting good questions, and answers from the author of this mod better then before.

[flykas]

Well it doesn't work with my old (premod) savedgames. And I'm not sure if it works with savedgames at all, cuz previous versions had this problem that when you start a new agme there are pedestrians, but when you save your game and the load it, they ar gone.

try this:
1: Create a new profile
2: Start new game
3: Save the game
4: import your saved game from yours old profile in new profile
(the saved game folder is located in: C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Games\RigNRoll_usa_ws\profile_name\SinglePlayer)
5: Load your game.

let me know if you have problems

hm, that didn't work. And a strange thing that when I started a new profile there were no peds and when I start a new game on the old profile there are peds but's just until I save restart the game and load the save. Then peds are gone. Does it work for anyone else ? May it be because of wrong java update ? Though in java website it says the my java is up to date and I have win 7 64 bit.

try to load the saved game and then reload the same saved game.

[USA Trucker]

Does it work for anyone else?

I guess this is the best question thus far. Does anyone else have Nicu_n21 Pedestrian Mod version? If so how is working for you, and is there any issues that need to come to his attention so that he can address them? Even if you don't have any issues with it, and it runs nicely for you, let us know. It might help narrow down some of these problems, and possibly resolve them.

[flykas]

Problem kinda solved Don't know about just reloading savegame, but what helps is: first starting a single order game wich has pedestrians (just start pick a cargo and turn it off) and the loading a savegame.
Btw: I see why they disabled it. Pedestrian movement is quite glichy, and they start to push eachother around and often apear on the road so driving on the lane wich is by the sidewalk is very dangerous.

[USA Trucker]

Maybe that's why he got this? :grin: ;)

Yeah, I gues it will be hard to finish the game with peds :]. But I have another problem. I'm not sure yet, but I have suspicions that theres no storyline with this script, cuz I have played for some time now and no one related to storyline calls me and at the begining you start at different place, and there is no that guy who needs a wrench when you exit Oxnard for a first time.

I have no problem with the story. I started a new game five times. every time the person with wrench appeared.
Some time the person with wrench contacts you via CB radio
Try to stay at the hotel two days.After two days, the person should contacts you via CB radio
Has anyone encountered problems like this?

Please, everyone who installed pedestrians, let me know if you have problems.
please let me know if it works
I like to know if you have problems or not

I received very few posts on this topic




For Transport Steve : Sorry, but I can not change the amount of the fine.

[Transport Steve]

I'd better not hit too many pedestrians then, otherwise, I won't have any money left. $80,000+ fine for damages seems a hell of a lot of money, can you amend the amount so that we don't need to pay so much, please ??

Thank you.

Transport Steve.

Actually, that's rather cheap. Think about it. How much would it really be if a trucking company hit a pedestrian? The "ambulance chasers" would be out in drones.:lol:

For those who wonder, what are the modifications to the script: only the PedestrianManager.class was edited. & 1 line was edited, from: "this.population = num" in :"this.population = 50"
the original file is: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=L2NV54J6
the file which has been modified is: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=VCYTT40R

hey, nicu, the java update can be simplky done by

going to java folder.

then go into jre6

copy bin an lib

paste the in the jvm folder in the game

my way IS SAFE. You still have the original JVM Folder

I have one question in regards to "Maximum Details". Does the "Traffic Setting" have to be high to get this mod to work. If so then that would be the sole reason I would not use it. This is because the traffic moves too slow to set it on high, and basically makes the game creep along at 50-MPH. I like low to medium for more maneuverability.

This is also why a lot of people don't see vehicle activity in Truck Stops, Parking Lots & Gas Stations. You have to set the Traffic all the way to achieve this, and most people are un-willing to do this because the AI traffic stinks.

Pedestrians work 4 me even without traffic, but in LA the situation is very bad. The game lag as hell and freezes after some minutes. I can run the normal game with max traffic in LA at 35 fps or more! This mod needs more work, this is just a "beta version".

though i do recommend you make a backup of the jvm folder. you still get the same result

Yeah it's pretty bad in LA for me too. Crashed in warehouse 3 out of 3 times :] But I think it's not nicu's fault, it's just that pedestrians are bugy.

I like that game punishes so bad for hiting a pedestrian, it's realistic (It seems that pedestrian's damage is somehow calculated) and it stop's you from going over the city and not obeing city limit. Just too bad that they are glitchy and sometimes teleports in front of the truck or into the truck.
If developers will fix pedestrians, would be cool to have some times some drunk ped wandering out in the street at night :]

you dont have to set Traffic at maximum.
if your computer allow you to set the traffic details at maximum, then the pedestrian modification work for you.
the pedestrians will lower fps

thanks, now the peds work for me. i used to run the game at 50fps, now a run at 40 fps. glad i have a 2.7/2.8ghz processor. both dual core

You either have a 2.7, or a 2.8 GHz, not both (unless over-clocking). The cores do not change, or accelerate your speed. It processes the data into cores at the same amount of speed your CPU is. ;)

[flykas]

Well storyline realy don't work for me with this script

yeah what i meant by 2.8/2.7 ghz processor, i meanmt i didnt know what i had. i either have a 2.8... wait lemee check......


ahh, looks like a have a 2.8 :cool:

Hmm, maybe I misunderstood something in your post, but does that mean, that there is a possibility to activate traffic cars on truck stops and parking lots? What exactly did you mean by that?

It's rather self explanatory.

[BleDrajor]

The problem is that I really don't understand it so right.

Does it mean that you have to set the traffic density on maximum?

(Don't miss the point that I'm from Germany so I sometimes have problems with expressing myself or understanding some statements. ;) )

Yes, I said it as simply as you just did. :)

As far as I can tell, your English is better than most. ;)

I tried setting traffic at max (my computer can handle it well) and still no traffic in truck stops!!! tried in one truck stop: nothing... in the 2nd: nothing... the 3rd: nothing... No traffic!!!

[USA Trucker]

This applies to people that can run the game with little, or no problems running on any setting. It may not work for everyone. I have only seen about 4 people that got it run, myself included. However, I don't use traffic at high settings because the traffic is too slow for me especially in congested areas. This does not include Nicu's Pedestrian Mod though.

OK, enough with the traffic. Let's get back on topic with the Ped Mod. I didn't mean to derail this thread with my original comment. It was only used as an example.

[slay0rwr4th]

Thanks for this, going to check it out now, will add some cool immersion into the game I think.

[icetoo]

Torrent is piracy, and is not allowed on this forum. I helped you for 3 hours, and you didn’t even buy the game.:evil: Shame on you, and your friend. You are now banned from the site. All posts were deleted relating to assistance for this former member.:!:

[USA Trucker]

Sorry Nicu n21. I deleted your post because this guy is not deserving of our assistance. Thanks for your time just the same.

[RNRtrucker101]

How the hell can some one get over $8,000,000 and where is the download link for the ped. mod?

[USA Trucker]

Hello & Welcome to the Forum. :)

It isn't hard to get 8 million or 10 for that matter. It's just a matter of how long you play. As to the link to the Pedestrian Mod, Megaupload no longer exist, so it's a matter for Nicu_n21 to correct, or provide us with another link, if he wishes to do so. I can't make him do it. ;)
