Vehicle Make Name Showing Incorrectly in Game - global.oxt

Suzerain001

I have a bunch of add-on cars and added the vehicle manufacturer to the global.oxt file with the correct Hash Generator tool in OpenIV.

However, in game, the name appears incorrectly - I want it to show Ferrari and instead it shows up as Lotus.

0x1C71E76F = Ferrari is what I have in global.oxt and in vehicles.meta I put <vehicleMakeName>Ferrari</vehicleMakeName> and it still shows up as Lotus.

The other names show up correctly - Porsche Lamborghini etc. Ferrari and Mercedes-Benz don't show up properly for me in game.

Help?

@Suzerain001which addon, link?

@JohnFromGWN if a Ferrari shows up as a Lotus it's because somewhere in the addon files, start with the vehicle. Rpf, there is text saying Lotus. Either scan these text files or do a find and then replace Lotus with Ferrari.

These are custom add-ons that I created - I added the global.oxt and vehicles.meta files for each add-on pack that I'm having an issue with here - LINK

Please let me know.

@Suzerain001 The files in your link are those that you edited so obviously you will not find Ferrari there. I'm asking for the link to the original model.

Check your model files, check global.gxt2, see if you have files with the same hash number but one assigned Lotus, another with same hash as Ferrari.

What are you trying to do exactly with global.oxt?

Addon packs are really not worth the hassle, they make troubleshooting a huge PITA (the proof is in the issues you have), and it's a myth that they will help with memory/pack management unless your PC is from 1981.

I have easily over 450 vehicles (400+ dlc, some with multiple cars) and no issues with memory, but most importantly it's a breeze to edit or modify without going through pack bullshit.

Gameconfig + heap + pack and you're fine.
