Also some of the modded cars dissapear when you look back at them?

The car issues are probably due to copying over a previous modded car - this I am sure is the reason, but the big grey areas are the main issue, as I'm driving around parts of the map flicker or disapear completely!

I have just installed F7YO gamesettings file to see if it was my vanilla game config that was at fault but it is still doing it...

Can anyone help?

My machine is a 12 core dual processor xeon with 96gb of ram and a Titan x 12gb graphics card yet I am getting crazy amounts of rendering issues

search for the file name using the search icon and replace them in the various locations

@ArmaniAdnr said in I've replaced Franklin's buffalo and Michael's wifes car... But they are buggy - bumpers hanging off, engine is in the sky!:

@dannythezuko wtf? how did you changed every car in 3 days? I'm working on it few weeks lol. Did you replaced vehicles.meta and handling.meta for that cars? There is no different between them and other cars, I have replaced all of them (michaels, franklins, trevors, michaels wife and kids) and all of them work good (just in story I think they are not).

So you just installed cars wrong or the models are bugged itself. There is nothing special about replacing characters cars (maybe just to make them compatible with story, but that"s not point of your question (: ).

I think I maybe missed some handling/vehicle meta - I probably spent 20hrs modding the game in those 3 days...

Easiest way was to list all the vehicle names in notepad then put next to the car name what type (sports, saloon, 3 door, 4 door etc) then replace each car with relevant car...

Ha I did 6hrs a day ish maybe more... I also had to do it twice after my game broke the first time!

Anyone seen any?

So I've replaced every car in the game! Which took me 3 days! The cars are fine when normally spawned but franklins buffalo front and back bumpers are on twice and Michael's wifes car when you drive it it lifts in the air and spins/rolls and the engine is sitting on top of the hood!

I assume its the mod files for these cars causing it?

As the replacement cars the mods won't work?

So I'm not sure what I need to do to fix it, either by replacing the cars for compatible ones or changing something else?

Just installed a fresh copy via steam, I installed openinteriors and wov and the game freezes ...

I think they haven't been updated to the latest version?

I noticed on openallinteriors people are asking for UPDATES in the comments... I assume it doesn't work on the latest version anymore?

Can I install an earlier version via steam one which the mods are still compatible with?

@ikt said in I've lost my game discs... So I am thinking about buying the game again on steam... can we still mod with a steam version?:

@dannythezuko
You let Steam install the game normally (all whopping 60 gigs or so of it) and then start adding mods. There might be a quicker way with making Steam think it's already installed and then to verify the files again. You'll certainly need a Steam copy of the executable, launcher and DRM files, so installing it cleanly from Steam is your most straightforward option.

All installed and mods are working and it launches from steam perfectly...
