[zacster95]

I am new to creating mods so there is a lot i dont know and there are some things i need to know in order to update my current mod and to release other projects i am working on if anyone could help me it would be greatly appreciated.
If you can help me please type @zacster95 so that you are helping. Ill list what i need help with below

1. how to correctly find right handling for car

2. location of car interior files

3.how to make doors open on my car

4. how to add a working jet engine to a car

@zacster95

1. The handling files for all non-DLC cars is in common.rpf/data/handling.meta.

2. The car interiors are in the _hi.yft file, not the normal .yft file. If you mean textures, you can look in vehicles.meta to find out what relationships there are in texture sharing.

3. https://game68240.fr/modding-gta-v/tutoriels-modding-gta-5/creer-vehicule-gta-v-tuto-complet/12/
   Its in french but you can use Google Translate.

4. I have no idea. Look into the new DLC Rocket Voltic car.

@AHK1221

1. i know how to find the .meta, i want to what values i need to change and by how much to make it drive how it should

2. i use _hi as my base files it says what textures are missing im just unsure on how to find them

4. ive started using the body in zmodeler. would what im after as in the flames be in vehicles.meta or carcarol.meta? i wouldnt know what to look for

[AHK1221]

@zacster95 Tell me what car you are using as base. I'll try to find the textures for it.

[zacster95]

@AHK1221

im after textures for the slamvan3 i know the textures needed are from the bobcat but searched all over OpenIV and no luck

[AHK1221]

@zacster95 Export all the textures from vehicles_bob_w_interior to a folder. Before importing the car, add all the textures including the ones from vehicles_bob_w_interior and slamvan3.ytd. If done correctly the vehicle should have all the textures.

EDIT: also dont forget vehshare.

@AHK1221

are you serious? hahaha ive been adding the whole ytd and not opening and extracting it. what should i export it as or doesnt matter?

[AHK1221]

@zacster95 Shouldn't matter. Any file type should do.

[zacster95]

@AHK1221

I still dont have working dials do you know how to get them working? and would you know where to find the files towtruck_rope.dds towtruck_rope_n.dds and env.dds

[AHK1221]

@zacster95 Look at the series I looked above. It shows you how to do dials and get env.dds. Don't know about twotruck_rope or the normal map tho...

[zacster95]

@AHK1221 tow rope is something i need to fix as you will see in my mod
https://www.gta5-mods.com/vehicles/bennys-custom-tow-truck

i need it to sit higher and not drag all the time but will look into what you said. working on the doors now you have been such a great help

[zacster95]

@AHK1221

ive set the rotations but doors still wont open
any other ideas?

[AHK1221]

@zacster95 Do you have seat_dside_f or seat_pside_f in your hierarchy?

[zacster95]

@AHK1221
yes they are, they are around the middle of the list

[AHK1221]

@zacster95 Show me your door dummy, user-defined options.

[zacster95]

@AHK1221

[AHK1221]

@zacster95 Looks fine, what is the problem tho? When you try to enter it doesnt open?

[zacster95]

@AHK1221
doors dont open, i just pass right through them

[AHK1221]

@zacster95 Collision issue. Show me your collisions for the doors.

[zacster95]

@AHK1221 im unsure on how to do that, i know that collision tab but im unsure of what you are asking, you can tell im new to this
