Title: Underground+ released
Post by: denetii on August 21, 2017, 08:30:48 pm
Hey folks, the Underground+ has now been officially released!

Download it here. (http://tharchive.net/mods/thug_plus.html) (current version: 1.2, 12/13/2017) Make sure to read the setup guide :)

Download 1.2 Hotfix (http://undergroundplus.tharchive.net/install/UndergroundPlus_1.2_Hotfix2.zip) (4/13/2018)

As of version 1.1, you can now use the standard Xbox-style control scheme. I can't believe you keyboard users can stand playing the game like that, but now you can once more! For those normal people that prefer the PS2-style setup, it's still there, but tied to a newly-added option in the Control Settings menu.

Let me know what you think, and if you encounter any bugs not listed in the guide!

There is a crashing issue with loading the School II+ level which has been identified. A patch will be coming soon to fix that and some other problems. I will also be bundling the new executable that works with Windows 10 in future releases, as a lot of people haven't been reading the notice at the top of the install guide!

Underground+ 1.1 has now been released. Check it out here! (http://tharchive.net/mods/thug_plus.html) If you still play on a keyboard (gross!) you'll like this update.

Edit: I made a mistake with this build that would have caused it crash on startup. Forgot one updated file :( If you downloaded before this edit, then please re-download!

Don't download the patch if you do not already have version 1.0 installed - it only includes the new/updated files. Otherwise, the main link should have a full up-to-date installation.

Patch notes:

Code: [Select]
----------------------------------
v1.1 - September 6, 2017
----------------------------------
* Added an option for switching between PS2-style controls and the original Xbox layout. Default is now Xbox. The desired setting can be saved to your skater file
* Bundled new executable which fixes issues on Windows 10 and up-to-date Windows 7/8/8.1 systems
* Increased memory limits across the board, which should improve stability - particularly in the level editor or when merging levels
* Added Oil Rig level (THPS3 port)
* Added Skater Island level (THPS3 port, incomplete)
* Added Marseille level (THAW port, incomplete)
* Added SCJ park editor theme (made by Biz!)
* Fixed crashing issue in Paris and School II+
* Fixed UV map issue in School II+
* Added new multi-page level select menu to account for the large number of levels still to come. Switch pages with the left/right buttons
* Dynamic TOD now starts in the middle of the day as opposed to the morning
    - No longer automatically sets during networked games
    - Some levels which don't look very good with different TOD do not auto-start with the cycle on
* Online game host can change TOD for all players - more host options coming soon!

Thanks for the keyboard fix, love the new levels!

Some questions:
- Is it possible to disable the camera effect while skating?
I use the ThirteenAG widescreen hack (prefer this) and the FOV goes too far in a ramp, a bit annoying.
- Is there a way to disable the rotation when using the revert key like THUG PRO ?
- Do you plan adding the Jane's Addiction track to the playlist?

Thanks!

The customized camera is actually something I forgot to remove for this patch, sorry. It will still be available as a camera mode, but I will restore the original camera as the default.

I don't know of any way to disable spinning while using the spin key to revert. I know that it's technically possible, but the THUG Pro developers have some extremely advanced extensions that allow them to do a lot of things in the game that are beyond my capability.

I don't think I'll be making any changes to the soundtrack. Too easy to load up your own music without using the game!

The next Underground+ patch will be packaged differently to address compatibility issues people have been experiencing. It will also feature:

 - One-button spine transfer/acid drop!
 - Draw distance fix (no more clipping in Hawaii and others levels)!
 - Native support for 1080p resolution (no widescreen hack needed)
 - Increased shadow resolution

Thanks, awesome, good luck!

For Marseille, I can't enable the secret area at all with the tree, could it be enabled by default?
Title: Re: Underground+ released
Post by: denetii on September 10, 2017, 12:19:50 pm
You should be able to! There's a very small piece of wood propped up against one of the trees that you need to hit to trigger the event. I might enable the secret area by default online though.

Ah thanks! Yes for online it would be cool since "Skater Island" has the era unlocked by default also.

For THPS4 Skateshop, I can't play the level at all, the skater is locked/can't move while peds walk.

the thps4 skateshop is still using the original thps4 scripts, iirc

Yes, the THPS4 Skateshop will be getting a bit of an overhaul in the next release. You can get your skater moving by pausing and unpausing, or going to the restart menu and picking a different restart.

This works offline but the restart menu doesn't show up online. Not even the freecam warp helps.
The only way I got the skater to move online was to start a game.

In the level editor, when I try to scroll through some of the objects one object makes the whole thing crash. RIP

can you fix the controls for digtials it keeps going left and up only while in menus and park editor

are you going to add infinite scale like thug pro?


-------------------------
I glad I can make goals and play 2-players in levelmod but for thug1 version

Pretty good but I have a few issues.

-The controls for the park editor up/down/left/right are broken. Basically if you press park editor down it'll go up. If I press right, it goes left.
-I can barely acid drop/spine transfer with PS2 controls. I press R2 and it doesn't transfer. I press both L1 and R1 sometimes I spine transfer but I end up getting off my board.

Hope you fix these issues.

only advice i can give is use the default pc thug1 layout, the xbox layout. it works a lot better. not sure about the dpad issue tho
Title: Re: Underground+ released
Post by: Krad on September 24, 2017, 10:49:41 pm
The inverted directional controls are not an issue with thug+, but an issue with thug1pc. You'll find that if you do not have two types of directional inputs binded (dpad+analog) and only bind one of them (dpad OR analog) that the controls are no longer inverted.

Not sure why I haven't checked this out in more depth sooner- looking SICK Ksk! Going to give it a spin tonight!!

Hey folks, version 1.2 has now been released. Download it here! (http://tharchive.net/mods/thug_plus.html)

Apart from the wide selection of bug fixes, this update brings in proper one-button spine transfer for fully accurate PS2-style controls, and the new Venice HD+ level (the first of many THPS HD levels to come). The full change log can be seen here (http://tharchive.net/undergroundplus/changelog.html).

There is also a mod launcher included with 1.2, so there is a new (much simpler) installation process. The download is a full installation, so it should work with a base copy of the game or one with a previous version. Make sure to check out the updated guide in the first link.

This is a bit of a holdover release as there are more exciting things on the horizon. I wanted to include more, but opted to finalize what I have because 1.1 is so crappy and it might be a while before everything else is fully complete.

Let me know if you run into any problems!

Great stuff Ksk! Really fun additions and great to play Underground 1 again.

Well, I can't seem to get a 100% perfect release! An issue has been identified with the new Venice HD+ level in which some textures appear too dark on the Medium and Low graphics settings. A hotfix will be released tomorrow to correct this.
Title: Re: Underground+ released
Post by: denetii on December 14, 2017, 12:11:16 pm
The hotfix is now ready. Download here! (http://undergroundplus.tharchive.net/install/UndergroundPlus_1.2_Hotfix1.zip)

To use, simply extract the zip file to your THUG1 directory and then launch the game as usual. There are more detailed instructions inside if you need it.
