@Losthegamer01
Have a brief look though this general process & make sure you haven't missed anything out:General Process:
Add-On:
- Make sure you are using a 'mods' folder
- Install add-on folder (the one with the 'dlc.rpf' in it) into 'dlcpacks' so it looks like this folder structure:
...\mods\update\x64\dlcpacks\NAME-OF-DLC-HERE\dlc.rpf ('NAME-OF-DLC-HERE' = whatever the add-on folder name is) - Add dlc entry to 'dlclist.xml' here:
...\mods\update\update.rpf\common\data\dlclist.xml
so it looks somewhat like this at the bottom (your exact dlc entries will be different):
... <item>dlcpacks:\F1\</item> <Item>dlcpacks:\dragnova\</Item> <Item>dlcpacks:\trans69\</Item> <Item>dlcpacks:\forest\</Item> <Item>dlcpacks:\firebird77\</Item> <item>dlcpacks:\na1\</item> <item>dlcpacks:\16challenger\</item> <item>dlcpacks:\spoozefix\</item> <item>dlcpacks:\NAME-OF-DLC-HERE\</item> </Paths> </SMandatoryPacksData>- Load game & spawn vehicle using a trainer & it's vehicle name. (Note: 'vehicle name' is not the same as dlc name. Vehicle name = 'vehicle-name-here .yft'. DLC name = name of folder above 'dlc.rpf')
- If still having issues with no add-ons/dlc working, have a read of this & make sure your 'dlclist.xml' is functioning correctly.
Replace:
- Make sure you are using a 'mods' folder
- Use Ctrl+F3 in OpenIV to search for the vehicle name of the vehicle you want to replace.
- Replace the '.yft' & 'ytd' files of the vanilla vehicle, in the highest 'patchday#ng' folder structure you find them in, with the modded replace files you have downloaded.
Note: If the vanilla vehicle has a '_hi.yft' &/or a '+hi.ytd' file as well, but the downloaded replace does not, just make copies of the downloaded replace's '.yft' & 'ytd' files & rename them to '_hi.yft' &/or '+hi.ytd' & use them to replace the '_hi.yft' &/or '+hi.ytd' vanilla files. - Find the handling/vehicles/carcols/carvariations.meta etc data for the vanilla vehicle in the game files & then replace it's data with the handling/vehicles/carcols/carvariations.meta data in the downloaded replace's files.
Note: Open the files & replace the data within them with the data in the files in the download. Only replace the data for the car/s you are replacing, not all of them in there & also don't replace the entire file with the one/s you downloaded.

@Losthegamer01
Not sure what it could be?
Upload you 'dlclist.xml' to somewhere like MediaFire so I can take a lookYou don't need any additional patchdays etc, not for add-ons anyway, they should work on their own.
Send a screenshot of your main GTA V root folder including all the files you have in there & a screenshot of your 'dlcpacks' folder & all of it's contents.

Same thing happening to me, my game keeps crashing everytime I try the add-on method.
-
@Losthegamer01 I found what you can do to fix it
, this worked for me. 👍

I’m not sure what you mean or how to upload it to media fire do you have discord or email name I can send it too so you can check it out

ufile:
Try ufile instead (just so you know, MediaFire & ufile are free to use, no need to register or anything)
ufile couldn't be easier:
- Using OpenIV drag & drop 'dlclist.xml' on to your Desktop
- Click on this green ufile link
- Click inside the dotted box in the middle of the screen where it says:
Drop files here or click to upload files (Max 10 files at once, 5GB per file)- a screen will open
- Navigate to the 'dlclist.xml' on your Desktop, select it & click '[Open]' button.
- File will be uploaded...
- Once complete you will hear a sound
- Copy the url in the white box & post it here.
Codeblock:
If you prefer, you can share your 'dlclist.xml' by using a codeblock:
Codeblock:
```xml
Copy these three lines to a blank txt file, overwrite only this line, copy all & post into gta5-mods forum post.
```Detailed codeblock instructions:
- copy the three lines above into a '.txt' file (any empty one will do)
- then open 'dlclist.xml', press Ctrl+A (to select everything in there) & then Ctrl+C (to copy everything)
- Back to your open '.txt' file, highlight all the words on the middle line & then hit Ctrl+P (to paste you dlclist data & replace the words)
- Then hit Ctrl+A again (to select everything in there) & then Ctrl+C again (to copy everything)
- Back here on gta5-mods, use Ctrl+P to paste the data into a reply/post & it will automatically be converted to a codeblock like this:
