This enables a hidden debug “Load Chapter” option in the main menu.
This is basically a better version of Costa’s freeride mod.

By supporting me you'll ensure that I can continue developing interesting stuff.
Thanks!
Do you have something to repack sds ór do you only change things with hexeditor?
OK it’s packed at bulk and you have to unpack it. Can you share some information how you repack?
He uses a program he made himself to repack.
It is in the SVN
Thanks but how you access the svn without username and password? http://svn.gib.me/public/mafia2/ etc. also not work.
Finally I found over google it’s http://svn.gib.me/public/illusion/trunk/
This mod is the BEST !!! Well done guys keep it up! I hope to update this mod! Thank you very much!
hey.. when i start the game it always goes back to desktop… and when i try to load a side mission it loads to death -.-
any help?
Thanks very much!
OMG, in that new chapter, i saw jimmy vendetta, that is jimmy vendetta DLC, it already in the game
I dowloaded the mode it is great but jimmys vendetta chapters are stuck on the loading except firs mission and tutorial. And jimmys head is black can you fix these please?
There is nothing to fix, the leftover content in the game are broken and incomplete.
Thanks but avaible missions are still great
So what we are going to do ? Wait till they throw a complete free ride patch or something ?
not a better version…
How’s that?
Awesome mod. Whats with the “catch the escapee” thing outside of your house on free roam mode? You get into the blue car on the street and the red one takes off and you have to chase him? Whats that deal? Little buggy but nice.
I’m trying to reset my L4D2 stats, but my weapons and other stuff won’t reset. I’ve tried to set all their values to 0, but it keeps coming up with this strange error.
Wrong thread Freeze Dried Fish.
Can I kindly ask for compiled version of SDS explorer? It looks like the best editing tool so far.
Thanks in advance
OK, I have installed M$ visual Studio, but it says I miss these parts:
Gibbed.Helpers
Gibbed.Squish
So…please. Pretty please.
Checkout the SVN properly, don’t just recursively download via HTTP.
BIG thanks Rick, works like a charm so far. I am in Your debt ^_^.
Hey Rick,
awesome job with Gibbed.Illusion.
Maybe it is duplicite work, but I wanted to give you credit for Your work, so HERE->
http://exloser.sweb.cz/Weapons.txt
It is stuff from tables.SDS/tables/weapons.tbl
It contains deciphered meaning of some values in that table; it can come handy when modding this game to be less arcadey (I have toyed with recoil and inaccuracy multipliers, results are really pleasing).
I used those weird numbers in the column headers as marking. I wish it makes sense to you ^_^
Feel free to use it when updating Gibbed.Illusion.
And please, add save option for tables. Thank you very much in advance.
Cheers,
Andrashi
I downloaded the file (size 4,41 mb). When I unziped it there is just 1 file: gui-main.sds. What have i done wrong?

hey guys….. i need a help, i cant play the load chapter in this mod… it keeps loading and loading…
I couldn`t select any level, the window was empty and Steam deleted my language -.-
I have the Steam version of the game. I placed “RICKS” gui-main.sds in the folder:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\mafia ii\pc\sds_en\gui
When I load Mafia II I see an option to load chapter from the main menu. *so far so good 🙂
However, when I click load chapter everything is blank? There are no missions to select from the load chapter menu? Everything is blank. The only thing I can click on is the level of difficulty option at the very bottom of the menu.
Can someone please help me figure out how to get this working. As far as I know you only need gui-main.sds. am I missing a step? See youtube videos of this working for other people and it’s aggravating as all hell.
Thanks

Hey Rick,
I’ve wanted to ask you if there is a chance that you can help us decrypting Mafia 3’s .SDS format. Encryption Method and Archive Structure has changed a bit.
Thanks!
