Addon car issue with right side driver

[CrzBonKerz]

I have a solid method of installing addon cars. I've installed 22 in one DLC with no issues. Throughout my installations I've had issues with only 2 cars. Those 2 cars had right side driver seats. The Mazda RX-7 and Nissan Fairlady Z. When I spawn the car, I don't spawn in it. Once I try to get in the car, the game crashes.

I'm assuming there's some error related to the cars not having left side driver seats. I've tried searching the forums, but I must be searching the wrong terms or something. Anyone able to help with this?

@CrzBonKerz which RX-7?

Closely inspect 2002 Mazda RX-7 Spirit R Type A Series III (FD3S) [Add-On] v1.1 by VSoreny.
You will find it has an extra meta (vehiclelayouts.meta) inside to include an extra layout setting, LAYOUT_LOW_RHD

That's the setting I've thankfully used on many right-sided cars now.

The reason you're CTD'ing is because of this. The game tries to call on a setting that is not loaded.
It's basically the same CTD you get when you forget to include a custom handling in handling.meta yet do refer to it in vehicles.meta.

Unlike when you include a <carname>_mods line in content.xml but forget to actually drag the <carname>_mods.rpf file inside the dlc.rpf.
In which case, when loading the game states it's corrupted.

Huzzah! That fixed it for the RX-7. Thank you! Tried replicating the same layout reference for the Fairlady and running into issues.. I guess I may need to stack layouts for them to work in one DLC?

@CrzBonKerz Try the reply-button so I'll notice you

Not necessary to include that vehiclelayouts.meta mutliple times!
If you look inside the setup2.xml of any dlc.rpf you will find a sort_order value.
This is the order in which dlcpacks are loaded.
You'll want the dlcpack containing the LAYOUT_LOW_RHD to be loaded first.

So keep track of those loading orders and start at 50 or 60 (which gives headroom for future R* updates).
And give the dlcpack containing the LAYOUT_LOW_RHD sort_order value 61.
Then work up from there number-wise.

Had the eaxct same issue where I couldn't get below models to use RHD properly... but all NISSAN cars worked fine?
Then it dawned on me These dlcpacks were loaded before my MAZDA dlcpack was loaded into the game...
