THUGPRO Level Update Thread

[Boomtime]

Just wanted to make a kinda thread for new levels that will be added to THUGPro in the future. Just for announcements and stuff like that.

[Skater1014]

I think they might add the THPS1, THPS2, & THAW levels all at once like they did with THPS3 & THPS4.
This thread isn't a bad idea if there's ever an update where they add 1 or 2 levels in it.

I remember someone saying that they saw the developers playing a private online game in the Mall level, right before the THPS3 levels were released.  The Skatepark Chicago level from THAW has already been added to THUG Pro, so I suspect they plan on adding all of the THAW old school levels prior to adding the rest of the levels featured in THPS2X.  Along with The Mall, Downtown Minneapolis and Marseille will probably be added in the near future.

I suspect that all of the THP8 levels will be finished before all of the THAW levels are.  Three THP8 levels have been added already, and there's a video from a couple of years ago of Crete Park looking almost complete.  The only THAW levels that have been added so far are ones that don't feature skate ranch pieces.  The ones with skate ranch pieces might be more difficult to convert.  For this reason, it wouldn't surprise me if the next THAW level to be added turns out to be The Ruins.  If not The Ruins, Casino is also a likely possibility for the next THAW level, since it's the only THUG2 Remix level that hasn't been added yet.

If I remember correctly (I chatted with one of the devs about it back when Chicago Skatepark was added) The Mall wasn't added due to technical issues related to the size of the level. Basically, the level is so big, it caused glitches when played online. I think there are still some leftover files for The Mall in the THUG Pro files.

I don't know if this is a different level but I see 3 files in the THUGPRO "pre" folder that kinda look like they could be for the Mall level:

ma_scripts.prx
macol.prx
mascn.prx


EDIT: I was looking in these files with a Hex Editor. They do appear to be from the Mall level.

Sadly, no...
I tried replacing it with Warehouse and the game crashed after I selected Warehouse.

I find it crazy that the devs forgot to remove it.
We all have the Mall level but it's locked away from the game and if we try to replace it, the game crashes.
I even tried Hex Editing the levels.qb file for THUG2 to add Mall but it still crashes in THUG2...

I Hex Edited the Levels.qb file for THUG2 to add New Jersey to replace Philly and it worked. (Online only & no grind sounds.):


Proof that these are THUG2 screenshots:




Mall crashed with both online & freeskate so yeah, it's obviously incomplete & unplayable...
I can't wait for the Mall level to be in Thugpro...

I extracted all of the .prx files for New Jersey from the THUGPRO "pre" folder and put the extracted files (.xbx's) in the THUG2 "levels" folder. I also copied the .prx files to the THUG2 "pre" folder. Then, I hex edited the THUG2 "levels.qb" file to replace Philly with New Jersey. (I made it point to New Jersey's files.)
I took those screenshots in LAN play and it crashes in Freeskate, Classic Mode, etc.
I tried this same method with Mall to see if the crash issue was just with THUGPRO but it still crashed in THUG2.


That's probably the best way that I can explain it.

I don't have a 2 player mode and for a hex editing program, I use HxD.
