Title of the post was for something else, but @a63nt-5m1th helps out the OP a little ways down in the thread to figure out how to switch between having two copies of gta5 if that is the way you choose to do it.

If you want to do it the easy way, there will be a file named dinput8.dll that basically makes it so mods will load. You can just temporarily rename that file to be able to play online safely without mods. I just rename it to 1dinput8.dll when I go online, and remove the 1 when I want play modded story mode.

Really not trying to be an a$$, but don't know how else to address this. I'm tired of always being disappointed, and I know I'm not alone in this. 99.9% of the things with this tag are not interiors. Quit using the Interior tag if what you made is not a mlo interior. That's the only way to make an actual interior in this game. I really like the designs that many people come up with, but have yet to actually keep anything because of all the issue that come with the various different ways people try to make an "interior". Who here likes rain "inside" all over their stuff while playing the game? Not me, probably others as well.
Also, quit using, or trying to use, outdated stuff that half the people can't get to work, like Map Editor. Who wants to have to switch to an old nativeui just to get one thing to maybe work? Just quit using it, there's a better option out there like CodeWalker. Who here likes missing props? Who here likes having to try to download multiple different prop lists or whatever to get everything to spawn? Who likes using teleports instead of just walking through a door like normal?

I just ask people try to evolve their modding and not just get stuck in a rut of doing the same thing over and over with no improvement. If not, then at least use the correct tags.

@a63nt-5m1th You are awesome! That did the trick. I also want to say thank you for always being dedicated to truly trying to help people on here. I see you often going above and beyond with testing out stuff and going into much detail to make sure someone can get their game working.

@Police-Scotland-RPC Seems pretty simple. Did you get permission from the mod author to upload a reskin of his/her mod? You can't just do what someone told you NOT to do with their mod because you feel like it. The St.Johns skin that was uploaded, guess what ... that person GOT PERMISSION!! Are you this thick headed all the time? It isn't about your skin, it's about you uploading a skin for a mod that doesn't allow reskins without permission. I've seen lots of people asking for permission to upload a skin for that particular mod, and only a few were allowed to. I do not see a post from you in the mod's comments asking for permission.

@AKruchov You could ask the mod author in the mod's comments section. The person that made it should be able to fully answer your questions on what that means and how to use. The author does look to be active answering questions there.

@meme_. Ever stop to think that it could be that Reloaded cracked version you installed? Also, pirated versions of the game are not supported here.

@Venkey The point of my post was just showing you how to do it in CodeWalker. I know your project is different. You keep mentioning this limit but you don't know for sure if it is a Menyoo issue or if it a game issue. That's why I wanted you to try to see if there is the same limit using CodeWalker. You need to test it out. Heck, send me your ymap with what you've already done and I'll test the limit if you can't be bothered with it.

@ahmedwaill

> The Game Version is : v1.44 / 1.0.1493.0 using RELOADED Crack

Umm ... there's your problem. Buy GTA 5 and that will solve the issue.

@Flipperowski I think it is closed. I used to be in there, but I hadn't been on discord for awhile and now it is no longer in my list of servers I'm on. Even awhile back it was kind of a slow channel. I would recommend joining the CodeWalker discord https://discord.gg/Hn3UxNsY and also join dekurwinator's discord https://discord.gg/wXXaUBXg

@centralsink You will need to remove the car generators from the spots you want them gone. You can use CodeWalker to do that. You can get the latest version of CW from the CW discord since the one on gta5-mods is outdated.

@myne1454 You can try to do what I posted about in the link and what reacon posted if you don't already have CWeaponInfoBlob installed. What I did ended up working for me to go through all of the remaining missions.

That's a pretty interesting idea. Hope someone makes it and releases it. Your idea also made me think that it would also be fun to be a pimp. Collecting money from your girls, having to deal with unruly clientele, recruit new girls.

I forgot to mention, you'll need to use this website to convert the quaternions shown in CW to the euler rotation coords for input into 3ds. https://quaternions.online/

@a63nt-5m1th Good bit of information to know about it being the site's fault and how to input it so it shows up properly.

@Sammy1970 Good to hear it's fixed and that was all it was, it's nice when it's an easy fix.

@Sammy1970 Just a fyi, next time you need to post things like what I listed, it would actually be easier for you, less screenshots for one, if you use OpenIV or CodeWalker's rpf explorer. It's also probably actually easier for others to pinpoint potential problems as well, I know it is for me since that's what I'm used to looking at when modding.

Also, a screenshot of the dlclist.xml is better than how you posted it because that is what will be in your game, and I mention that because each and every entry in your whole dlclist that you have posted is missing the slash after the pack names, even the vanilla packs, but I am going to assume that is a typo error when you put them down, if that isn't the case, then that's an issue you would need to fix.

The mod dlcpacks I see you have them installed in your vanilla dlcpacks location, they need to be in the mods folder dlcpack location, you only have two vanilla packs in there. That's definitely one issue. Are you editing the vanilla dlclist.xml or are you editing the one in the mods folder?

Here's a few example pics of where the packs should be and also to show you how it's easier to tell where things are located when trying to help.

This first pic i'm pointing out the missing slash that I assume is present in your list that was just a typo if you typed them out manually, but also have to think why would someone type out that long list manually instead of copy/pasting it, so make sure your list has those slashes.

This one is my mod folder dlcpack, you don't need all of the vanilla ones in there, only ones with edits to them, but you do need to make sure you put all of your mod dlcpacks there.

@Sammy1970 I recommend you never use an OIV installer. It could make unnecessary changes that affect other things you don't want changed. I bet that's your issue. You can always manually install files from an oiv.

@gentlejoey123458 This should be in the trouble shooting section. Do the logs have anything in them about the crash? Your best bet is to remove all mods and start over since you don't have many installed. Add just one mod and test it out thoroughly, and I mean thoroughly since it is a random crash. If it is ok after awhile, add another mod and retest thoroughly. If all is well then add one more and test thoroughly. Keep doing that and if you crash, remove the latest mod you installed and retest to make sure it was the culprit. If so, forget about the mod and add another one. It isn't the fastest method to add mods, but it has saved me much headache trying to figure out the reason for a crash since you aren't trying to narrow down what is causing the crash if you add a bunch at one time.

@Dogamizer Just an update since I recently had to edit the doortuning.meta and .ymt, i did find a flag called DelayDoorClosingForPlayer, although it really doesn't seem to do much and i haven't seen any value in the meta or ymt that allows you to control how long the delay is for. I'm currently testing things out on a new door. I'll update if I find out anything else about this.

Another alternative option, if the oiv installer installed dlcpacks or certain x64a.rpf-x64w.rpf into your mods folder and there are no other edits to those dlcpacks or rpfs for other mods, you can simply delete the folder or rpf file from the mods folder to remove what the oiv installer installed. No need to replace files in that situation.

@SirAnKeKu Could be a couple things wrong, like maybe content.xml in the dlc.rpf not loading things. That first tutorial seemed to be correct. Here is a pic of another way to get a single custom prop into the game without wasting a dlcpack if you want to try it this way for getting it into SP for testing. As for getting it into FiveM, I don't have knowledge with that.

If you try the way in my pic and did not embed the texture, you can import the texture you used into a ytd in the rpf you place the ydr and put the name of that ytd into the CBaseArchetypeDef of the ydr in the ytyp.

You also have an old version of CodeWalker if you are using the one from this site, that's why you couldn't work with the manifest. Here is the CW discord link where you can find the most up to date version in the #releases channel. https://discord.gg/qZzsnp

Also, I see that you have the lafa2k tutorial in your dlcpacks, did that one work for you?

@Yolomann500 I assume you are wanting to change the draw distance of objects in the ymap, is that correct? If so, you can open the ymap and edit the lodDistance values of each entity manually then save the ymap. You can use either OpenIV or CodeWalker.

Hopefully you aren't wanting to do this with all the ymaps R* has created and are just wanting to do this with a few particular mods you downloaded that uses a ymap. The part where you say, "all ymaps they installed?" has me a bit confused and worried.

@flying_bulletzzz The mesh smooth modifier, you right click on it after you've adjusted any parameter and click on Collapse To, then click yes on the prompt. Also, if meshSmooth modifier doesn't do anything, try TurboSmooth modifier

@flying_bulletzzz After adding the modifier and adjusting any parameters, did you right click on the modifier and then click collapse to?
