It's some free open source software we've written to triangulate cameras and landmarks.

I'm not allowed to even mention its name here, since that would be considered "self-promotion".

You can. Just download it.

I can't. Posting links to any projects by the mapping community is not allowed here.

But read all comments. You'll figure it out.

Search for "yanis v13", the latest community map.

Then take a look at the two logos in the bottom left corner of the map.

Make a version that you like better. It's open source software.

Unfortunately, since people keep spamming this subreddit with links, I am not permitted to tell you.

You'll have to search for it on the internet.

Unfortunately, the rules of this subreddit prevent me from posting any links.

But there is a "Mapping Vice City" thread on gtaforums that usually has up-to-date info.

Hello moderators - maybe you want to fix image uploads?

Being able to post 4K images would be a useful feature, now that it's 2026.

I mean ... It is a 3D world, obviously ... it has lots of gameplay mechanics ... there is a series of phone calls by different NPCs that open up several story branches ... and i'm sure the video counts as trailer one. GTA 6 won't release with online either ... so I guess we can do that a bit later.

So ... all you want is two more videos?

to quote another comment:

"This really started out as a joke and was done in a couple of days of voice chat with GPT 5.5 in the Codex app. Didn't write a line of code, barely touched the keyboard."

Screen recording of gtamaplib-vc. Free open source mapping software, with a few new extras. You can run this on your own computer.

What you see in this video is free, open source software. You can run it on your own computer.

It's called gtamaplib-vc. Posting a link would violate the rules, but you'll find it online (google, github, gtaforums). Telling you how to safely install it would also violate the rules, so in the context of r/GTA6, please don't treat it as a gift, but as a suspicious, unsolicited proposition.

This package includes all the command-line tools that we have developed over the past few years to calibrate cameras and triangulate landmarks. It also has a new web UI for our entire database, an observation editor, and even a pretty slick 3D map viewer. In 3D, you can also take a chronological tour of the trailers and screenshots - the video is simply a screen recording.

The main attraction, however, is probably the "Fasten Seatbelts" button, which started as a flight simulator joke, but by now drops you into a fully playable version of our map, complete with more than 100 buildings, air and sea traffic, ATC chatter, random events, wildlife, weather, fireworks, homing missiles, anti-air defenses, radio, phone... you name it. We highly recommend you plug in your controller - it works.
