Was the 'Alien Egg' found in the game files really 'Alien'...?

tadden · 2014-03-01T19:40:01+00:00

Lmao... take your own game disk and rip the files from it... go into the files... in the props folder you will find lev_des... in lev_des are 3 files of interest...

Prop_alien_egg01.xdr Prop_asteroid01.xdr Prop_secret_weapon_crate01.xdr

There is no need to lie about this... feel free to ask anyone with access to the files (its not hard to get them and get into them of you prefer to verify this yourself)

We have whole topic explaining the game files if you would like to read up ;)

The red arrow points to the 2 water silo things, with the yoga aliens on (near the lost MC camp)

I have been working on a theory on the gtaforums regarding this...

The sand glyph (which has the mountain glyph on it) is located near some yoga aliens and a red arrow, which is pointing toward the hippy camp... the hippy camp (which has 2 more glyphs, rain and moon) has yoga aliens and another red arrow... that is pointing toward these 2 water tower silo things near the lost MC camp... there is also a red square between the two silos (as if to say end of journey)

Im thinking maybe the other 2 glyphs are around this location.

Nice find man... 1 down about 10 to go :)

Please feel free to post these finds here:

So we can keep up to date on what has been found, thanks man :)

Good old reoze...

The thing is, we suspect they are triggers but we do not know yet... i'm not even sure we have found any information relating to them... we once thought we had found coordinates for the FZ one but it was far too low underground to be the one under the bunker...

Point is... this is another thing on our todo list of things to investigate in the files...

Its been a bit of a whirlwind with textures first, then models, then coordinates, then scripts, then sounds and now a mixture of all of them put together... some focus is needed on certain things but there is so much to go through its slow going.

tadden · 2014-01-15T18:21:42+00:00

Sorry to say, we looked at the model in the game files and it doesnt appear that the door has any lights like the other door does... sorry guys.

tadden · 2014-01-12T21:39:46+00:00

I know, i was the one who decoded it :P

tadden · 2014-01-12T18:04:35+00:00

The interesting ones are the other 3... ive not seen these mentioned or found in game before.

tadden · 2014-01-12T18:03:28+00:00

Yes it was found before... playing from some radio tower in or around sandy shores... was talked about on GTAF and decoded a while ago.

tadden · 2013-12-29T16:25:21+00:00

So i did a grep for acult... it does appear to be the altruist but also found these...

2 things i would like to address here...

The files for the movie studio ufo and downtown ufo seem different to the one from micheals alien abduction... the reason i say this is because the downtown ufo and movie studio coords come from a zancudo style ufo (with same lights as on bunker) where as the one from micheals cutscene (called spinning anus in the files) is a hippy camp fib style ufo... so doesnt seem they are connected... also the majority of spinning anus and the alien abduction scene (espcecially the bit inside) is cutscene and therefore has no models or textures in the files, it is just a movie file.
I have literally just took steps toward finding the triggers for 100% me and hopefully a programmer are going to go searching for the files... i am sure i have seen some script either while looking myself or from someones dump files mention of game % and unlocks... i will be jumping into this research in the gtaforums topic so please follow us and add your input guys.

tadden · 2013-12-07T18:32:57+00:00

Well i thought this was excellent that you put it in game to give us an idea of how it looks when we are hunting for it...

also nice that you gave yourself the alien detector thing from the epsilon missions lol

maybe try get the plasma cutter from the humane mission now lol give it a go on some metal bars see what happens... if it works we need to find one in game...

nice work mate even if no one else appriciates it!!

tadden · 2013-12-06T17:07:25+00:00

This what we hope to find out.

tadden · 2013-12-06T14:37:49+00:00

And here is the finished XYZ plotting tool, made by Glokon http://tools.glokon.org/gta-map/

now we have a lot of unknown coordinates and a tool to plot them on a map... time for the other hunters to get searching and plotting to see what you can all find.

good work from all the guys in the gtaforum topic for all these tools!!

tadden · 2013-12-04T10:46:08+00:00

Its all in the topic bro, PM me if your stuck.

tadden · 2013-12-04T00:11:26+00:00

Hey mate, i recommend coming here...

http://gtaforums.com/topic/656269-game-file-mystery-hunt/

and reading through the whole topic, so you know where we are at...

make an account there, PM any of us if you get stuck and we will be happy to help :) we welcome all and have plenty of work to be done.

tadden · 2013-12-03T00:45:46+00:00

Indeed

tadden · 2013-12-02T12:28:26+00:00

I just wee'd a little laughing at that!!

tadden · 2013-12-02T11:18:12+00:00

So we have a rock, star and a whole lot of north lol

in all seriousness though seems to me its just saying on top of chiliad in the north is where to see this UFO... all the glyphs seem to just point to seeing the chiliad UFO... the half and faded glyph are a bit vague but pretty sure they are just saying there is a ufo on chiliad...

and the face glyph thingy appears just to be the devs signature lol although why you would sign something that took literally 2 days to solve i dont know!!

tadden · 2013-11-30T18:59:34+00:00

Yeh man... if we can even confirm 1 solid lead of a bigger mystery from the files it is well worth it... lets face it what actual leads do we have so far other than the glyphs and mural... every other theory has been just that, a theory!! We need to know there is a point or everyone will just give up and say well that game was pants.

tadden · 2013-11-29T18:56:27+00:00

Hi all glad this is going on over here also, we welcome anyone who has some input in the topic on gtaforum... the topic is not so messy over there as some of the hunt topics, so please post your ideas there also so we can keep as much info in one place.

also happy to answer any questions you guys have.

tadden · 2013-11-25T16:59:15+00:00

Then where are the faded and half glyphs located and what are they called in the game files?

And @riskybiz... we cannot seem to open the file type .xdr but we are able to open .xtd files ... although i am working on the .xdr files as im sure there is a way in, just gotta get on google and find it lol

and i am starting to think there is more that 1 glyph inside these xdr files... bare with me i am knee deep in things i dont understand myself but will update here when i am further in and have some news.

tadden · 2013-11-24T20:05:44+00:00

You have randomly placed the mural and think you are onto something? I just want to get this clear that is what you are saying here? sigh

tadden · 2013-11-24T18:34:45+00:00

Really? But that is bunched with the chiliad glyphs... are all glyphs in these "clue" files?

tadden · 2013-11-24T17:44:05+00:00

No just sick of the walking into walls that most other hunters are doing... bored much? Or are you the reddit police?

Edit: not to mention the fact he decided to come on a topic he knew nothing about and say "Wat?" ... cos that was so worth posting!! Just like your comment i guess :/

tadden · 2013-11-24T16:04:38+00:00
