Update 1.2 is out now. Now when you fight the Cops/Army it's a warzone now it feels like the homies have your back. I'm not sure what model of gabby is that. Those Morningstar homies can be replaced with Fun Shaundi, Pierce, Gat or other models like angel and stuff. Now i need the Mission Replay mod to test if Maero or Tanya or especially Stag, for game crashes.
Vice Kings Takeover
- Thread starter XLegendary BossX
- Start date
the only Dex model I have is from Gat out of Hell
That's good.
Its a random Steelport NPC, I just thought he could be used as Mark Gabby.
No, I thought the Morningstar in Gang Customization were replaced with the Sons Of Samedi, like the notoriety and street spawning Morningstar.
I didn't realise the Gang Customization was seperate to the Mission, Activity, Notoriety, and Street Spawns. I was going for synchronicity across the board.
That's why I wasn't bothered about having Lin replace one of the Street Saints in Gang Customization, because she's unlocked with the SOS, Ronin, and Brotherhood in Gang Customization after completing the Saints Towers Strongholds.
I mean, I don't have a complete save, I just restart the game and speed through as much of it as possible to test this mod.
I did contemplate the idea of using that model, just for the lols.the only Dex model I have is from Gat out of Hell
Lack Of Vice Kings:
I know this mod is supposed to be the "Vice Kings" Takeover, but I really couldn't think of a way to include the two generic VK Models from SRIV.
For a while I thought about adding them to the Morningstar, Deckers, and Luchadores, but I'm unsure.
I know in the original post I have them down as the gang specialists, but I'm really liking having Mr. Sunshine, Big Tony, and Jyunichi as the Specialists. (Which was my very first thought before I changed my mind anyway)
It would have looked a little like this:
Notoriety & Gang Customization:
Morningstar - Sons Of Samedi:
MS Specialist & Grigor - Mr. Sunshine
Clara - Lin
Zoey - SOS Female
Lillian - VK Male 1
Pete & Barry - Mr. Sunshine
Victor - SOS Male
Gus & Mr. Dickson - Veteran Child
Deckers - Ronin:
D Specialist & Kirsten - Jyunichi
Jack - Ronin Female
Chester - VK Male 2
Steven - Lin
Archie & Pr0Tip - Jyunichi
Raymond - Ronin Male
Homer - Kazuo Akuji
Luchadores - Brotherhood:
L Specialist & Almonzo - Big Tony
Casey - VK Male 1
Leroy - Brotherhood Female
Clifford - Lin
Alonzo - Brotherhood Male
Reggie - Maero
Nacho - Big Tony
If this involves too many corrections or faff, then it's not necessary. It was just something I felt I had to bring up. To be honest, I never actually had any expectations for this mod to become a reality, so I'm just happy to even see it in development.
Thank you again XLengendaryBossX.

Version 1.3 is out now. I added the Gang Customization (Replaced models) In the Gang Customization the Rock Punks should be replaced with Fun Shaundi, Pierce, Gat, Tanya? I was also thinking making Police notoriety in the water (boats) spawn more cops and also Homies in boats. I was thinking about replacing Brute Minigun with Maero. There's 3 Missions that might cause an issue but Its worth a try. Maero is also short in the cutscenes I know how to increase the height but i think i doesn't work on killbane and brutes maybe I missed a step..? I'll let you know
Brute Maero doesn't work and Police Boats only spawns the same amount. Phone Homie backup I can add Homie Brutes and Rollerbladers and only attack enemies
I'll have to check this out Wednesday Night. I've got five shifts from Wednesday til Sunday, so I've only got an hour or so each night free to check out any updates this week.
I've tested the road blocks of gangs (when driving away) I now have morningstar (Samedi) finished and now Churchill vehicles spawn in the road blocks instead of the morningstar cars. I was thinking maybe Big Tony (Luchadore Specialist) replaces the Minigun Brute that spawns in the road blocks? Maybe add some of the VK thugs in there too.
Nope, they still Punks.
Sounds interesting.
I absolutely love it!!!Maero killed Tanya's Twin with "The Force". Maero needs no improvement, I love it. It's a testament to how watered down Maero's Model was in SRIV compared to his Model in SR2.
That's cool.
If that's possible, then yeah, go for it.
Extras:
Not a big issue, but Shaundi's Bobble Head Model is still SRTT Shaundi during the gameplay part of "When Good Heists Go Bad".
I'm not sure how you added both VK Models to both the Samedi and Brotherhood, but I am loving the result.
If Notoriety and Mission Spawning can be edited, I'd reduce the percentage that Lin spawns compared to the other gang members. It's just that when arriving at Angel's Gym, every Brotherhood Enemy outside the Gym is Lin. (If this can't be edited, then that's fair enough)
As soon as I watched the "I'm Free - Free Falling" Cutscenes, I loved seeing Ben King and the Winters Twins aboard the plane. And plenty of VKs appeared in those Cutscenes too.
Possible Change:
I find myself wondering if maybe Burt Reynolds should be replaced with Dane Vogel, and the SWAT be replaced with the Masako. Cypher could replace the SNG
Temple, Kia, and STAG would remain unchanged.
It would make sense for Vogel to be working with King, until King gets killed. Then Tanya would convince Vogel to work with the Saints instead.
Update:
Just finally unlocked all 3 Gangs in Gang Customization.
I think your method was definitely better. But the generic Samedi models still show up purple for some reason.
Unlocking Mr. Sunshine and VC with the Samedi.
Unlocking Jyunichi, Kazuo, and Lin with the Ronin.
And unlocking Maero, King, and Tony with the Brotherhood.
I definitely like the way you approached it. It's like a tier system to unlock more important Characters as you progress further through the campaign.
It's just a shame the two VK models didn't have room in any of the gangs. Though there are two of each generic Samedi Model, so maybe the VKs could replace one each of those. So it would be 1 Samedi Female, 1 Samedi Male, Mr. Sunshine, VC, then both of the VKs.

On the next update (version 1.4) Shaundi Bobble model fixed, gang road blocks fixed, gangs drive around with their vehicles and Samedi Homies are green now. I kept the Brutes in the road blocks, if removed no road blocks spawn. I might have to remove Lin from the Luchadores (brotherhood) and it only spawns one model in the save Angel mission. Replace the Mayor with Vogel and the Swat with Masako? Masako Npcs only have one model that means I'll use one of the models from the mascots to replaced it then edit to make Masako appear as the Swat. The Mascots only have one model as well. Which Mascot should I replace? I think there's Gorilla, Dog, Rabbit, Pig, Joe cola, Beer, Hotdog, Gat, Saintflow Can. Genki might cause errors.
Sweet. I didn't even know if the Bobble Head Models could be switched out.
Brutes on Road Blocks ain't too bad. I usually plough my tank right through Road Blocks anyway.
Since we unlock Lin in Gang Customization with the Ronin, it would make sense to not have her in the Saints and Brotherhood at the same time, so that will work out fine anyway.
I thought the Swat only had one model too?
The Pig Mascot was always my least favorite, especially with the greenies hanging from his nostrils.
Update:
Aw. I just loaded up Murderbrawl 31 ready to see Angel take on Maero. But I'm assuming there's an issue when you try to replace Wrestling Killbane with Maero.
Gangstas In Space: (The Mission, not the DLC)
I just realised how much I've never really liked the Teletubby spacesuits in this mission. Could the GIS models be replaced with the following:
GIS Gat - Gat
GIS Pierce - Pierce Presidential
GIS Shaundi - Fun Shaundi
GIS Saints (Also in Gang Customization) - SR1 Default Playa, Tanya, Levar (SR2 Default Playa), Donnie (ETD)
GIS Killbane - Maero
GIS Luchadores - Brotherhood
If not, then that's fine.
