Reviving an old hobby!

For a while, I had a laptop that was jusssst powerful enough to play a game like GTA: San Andreas smoothly.

For a long time ever since the PC version of that game came out, I dreamed of getting one of my own and modding the crap out of it, and I did just that when I got both the game and the hardware. I also modded the heck out of Microsoft Train Simulator and Flight Simulator X.

Check out these videos, I even made my best copy at the Forza 3 trailer (Kinja is being Kinja, so I guess embedding isn’t working).

And my oldest video on YouTube is a GTA modding video, just for giggles. (7 years ago!)

Soon enough, that PC started dying, so I bought myself a Mac and gave the old laptop to my parents. I thought my modding days were over until I finally built that gaming PC I want.

But recently, I just realized something...My Mac now only runs Windows 10, and my Mac runs Flight Simulator X better than my old PC...so holy crap, I can install GTA and Train Simulator again and go crazy!!! The game now even has the W451 smart!!

I had the same feelings, but towards GTA IV and, currently, V!

Now that my PC has the Intel HD 4400, I’m able to play them...in 10-25FPS!

I used to mod GTA like crazy back in the day. Not sure if you know but Matheus 340 was pretty big on the scene. I did quite a few paint jobs for his cars and it was all manual. I had to recreate most logos to be able to make the paint job.
