It was then further remastered to see use in free roam gameplay styles that Grand Theft Auto is well known for.
Google Maps 3D scanned area is added as complementary to the existing as to certify map is not an island and rather an illusive landlocked zone. GTA 3 (III) was the only 3D GTA to feature such a way of depicting a world to players of the franchise.

!!!NOTICE!!! Before installing the mod, READ THIS:
-backup any previous mod installations you may have if you wish to have ability to restore the game to a previous working state. The fastest way is to rename mods folder to something like modsold and after that run the installation
-on OIV runtime with OpenIV, make sure to select the mods folder instead of game
To install the mod manually open the OIV file with a tool like WinRAR, extract files to a new desktop folder, open assembly.xml and using OpenIV or CodeWalker locate the files in content folder and add and replace in your game as needed while reading locations from the above xml file.
I am not responsible for any damage to your mod/game installation by using this mod.
@originSM I used a translator to understand your message. You can see files to be modified inside the OIV file by right clicking it and opening it with a tool like WinRAR, assembly.xml file has a list of all files to be added and replaced. Hope it helps
@aKeron It is a good practice to backup any previous mod installations before attempting to install any new ones.
@EncryptedReality I know, I fixed it already
Lived in Chicago half my 50+ years. Is there a coverage map? Judging by the screenshots it looks like it's mostly the North Wacker Drive area. How big is this map?
ay it crash Og whenever I get to the city it crash I don't got nun but this running made a backup of mods folder to. I tried flying there everything do I gotta downgrade or dont use the recent gameconfig from here?
is this compatible with nvr and forests mod
Very cool mod but I’m having some compatibility issues. When I install this along with Liberty City V and Vice Cry all 3 maps disappear and the Windy City minimap goes to the west side and starts spawning other images of the main map on the minimap. I can’t find a solution anywhere else so I’m asking you if you know.
this mod literally erased all of my other mods
guys don't download this mod
its shit
This mod runs fairly well for me, the only major issue I have is that the game crashes when I get close to the tribune tower near the michigan ave bridge, even on the lowest gfx settings. It will crash further away if traffic is heavier. My crash log shows a stack overflow exception specifically related to the Common Language Runtime component of the .NET framework. I hope this helps, would love to see an update that fixes this. As a life long Chicagoan, thanks for the mod. Cheers!
Who is the Christmas Edition?
so i this replacing liberty city or is this somewhere else?
should convert the watchdogs map
Really love it, hope to see in future bigger map.
@Hunxho1500 it's addon map, once it's installed, you'll find it at north east near paleto bay
Thank for the update, will there be a bridge for it in the near future?
@EncryptedReality in what city plays this ?
i backed up my mods folder before installing but it is a good map. It has peds and traffic,more than anything you could ask for than what the other empty island/addons give you. I have a slight issue where the city is not fully complete and a couple buildings are missing a wall/empty underneath, but with the traffic and peds around I can't complain. I only installed the version 1.4 from here not sure if im missing something
No more crashing issues, thanks for the update. Works great now
its still no southside or westside whats the point of this mod nobody gives af about downtown chicago
