4. Review any included configuration files for spawn points and settings
5. Add the resource to your server.cfg with ensure [resource-name]
6. Configure server spawn locations to Vice City coordinates (or keep dual-map setup)
7. Restart your server and allow full map loading (first load may take longer)
8. Test performance with multiple players before full deployment

Performance Optimization Features

Despite being a complete city map conversion, Vice Cry: Remastered maintains excellent performance through multiple optimization techniques:

• LOD Systems: Distant buildings use optimized low-detail models, rendering full detail only when nearby
• Efficient Collision: Streamlined collision meshes reduce physics calculations
• Occlusion Culling: Objects behind buildings aren't rendered, saving resources
• Optimized Textures: HD quality without excessive file sizes or VRAM usage
• Instanced Props: Repeated objects (palm trees, street lights) use efficient instancing
• Controlled Draw Distance: Balance between view distance and performance

Most players report 60+ FPS even on mid-range hardware, making this accessible to broad player bases.

Framework Compatibility

• ✅ ESX - Full compatibility, update spawn points and job locations to Vice City coordinates
• ✅ QBCore - Compatible with all QB scripts, relocate gang territories and job sites
• ✅ QBOX - Works with QBOX framework implementations
• ✅ vRP - Compatible with vRP systems and scripts
• ✅ Standalone - Can be used without framework as pure map replacement
• ✅ Custom Frameworks - Map is framework-agnostic, works with any system

Server Configuration Considerations

Spawn Points: Update your server's player spawn coordinates to Vice City locations. Popular options include Ocean Beach hotel, downtown police station, airport, or Starfish Island mansions depending on your server's focus.

Job Locations: Relocate all job sites to Vice City equivalents - police department to VCPD headquarters, hospital to Vice City medical center, mechanic shops to appropriate garages, etc. The map provides suitable locations for all standard jobs.

Gang Territories: Establish new gang zones using Vice City districts - Little Haiti for one faction, Little Havana for another, Downtown for organized crime, etc. The diverse districts naturally support territorial roleplay.

Store/Shop Locations: Move all shop markers to Vice City addresses. The mall, downtown shopping districts, and various storefronts provide perfect locations for 24/7 stores, gun shops, clothing stores, and specialty shops.

Real Estate: Housing scripts need coordinate updates for apartments, houses, and luxury properties. Vice City offers diverse housing from beachfront condos to mansion estates.

Roleplay & Gameplay Applications

Vice City's 80s Miami setting enables unique roleplay scenarios impossible in Los Santos. Run authentic Miami Vice-style police operations with pastel suits and speedboats. Create narcotics empires based on Scarface and Narcos with mansion headquarters and port smuggling. Establish beachfront hotel businesses catering to tourist characters. Launch nightclub empires across multiple clubs in the entertainment district.

The tropical setting shifts the entire server atmosphere - replace desert gang wars with beach territory disputes, highway chases with coastal highway pursuits, and urban grit with neon-soaked 80s excess. Players experience fresh scenarios in an entirely new environment.

Technical Specifications

• Map Size: Complete Vice City geography, comparable to GTA V's map in playable area
• MLO Count: Hundreds of accessible interiors including major landmarks and businesses
• Performance Target: 60+ FPS on recommended hardware (GTX 1060 or equivalent)
• File Size: Large download (several GB) due to complete city assets and textures
• Traffic Support: Full AI pathfinding, traffic light functionality, and vehicle navigation
• Population: Custom NPC spawning with period-appropriate peds and scenarios
• Compatibility: Works with all FiveM server builds and framework versions

What Makes This Conversion Stand Out

Unlike simple map overlays or partial conversions, Vice Cry: Remastered is a complete professional port with attention to detail at every level. The remastered HD textures modernize the map without losing the iconic Vice City aesthetic. The extensive MLO interiors mean players can actually enter and use buildings, not just see exteriors. The optimization work ensures this massive map runs smoothly, making it viable for actual server use rather than just a novelty.

The nostalgia factor cannot be overstated - players who experienced the original Vice City return to familiar streets now rendered in modern graphics. New players discover an entirely different city with distinct personality from Los Santos. This map doesn't just change scenery; it transforms your server's entire identity.

Community & Support

The Vice Cry project benefits from active community development and ongoing improvements. Many server owners share coordinate conversions for popular scripts, optimized spawn points, and configuration tips. This collaborative ecosystem makes implementing Vice City easier than starting from scratch with coordinate mapping.

Requirements & Dependencies

• FiveM server with adequate resources for large map assets
• Sufficient server storage for map files (several GB)
• Player hardware: Recommended specs similar to GTA V requirements
• No specific framework dependencies - map is framework-agnostic
• Optional: Updated job/housing scripts with Vice City coordinates

Creative Server Ideas

Launch a 1980s period-accurate server with Vice City map, period vehicles, authentic 80s music, and no modern tech. Create a dual-map server where Vice City is a vacation destination accessible via airport, with players traveling between Los Santos and Vice City. Build a criminal empire server focused on narcotics operations using Vice City's port and maritime access. Develop a tourism-focused economy with hotel jobs, beach businesses, and entertainment industry roleplay.

Known Considerations

First-time map loading may take longer than Los Santos due to asset size. Players should be informed to allow extra initial loading time. Some scripts with hardcoded Los Santos coordinates will need updates. Vehicle handling may feel different on Vice City's road layouts and shorter highway runs. Plan adequate server resources to handle the additional map assets alongside your existing scripts.
