Yep I checked a few times, no leftover files. I do recommend checking out that generator, its super easy, don't need to worry about checking if something is streamed or not no copy and pasting syntax and it's free. I totally understand wanting to stick with the manual method but I don't think its a one or the other situation. Also if you use any of his scripts it makes it super easy to generate suit files for them. Again thanks for taking the time to help super appreciated and I will keep note of that method

@JohnFromGWN ok so I reached out to JulioNIB and he has a ped generator, this method worked for me https://www.patreon.com/posts/35298524 I am so happy I can use my peds again but I still have no idea what was causing the last method to not work still super curious about that haha, but hallelujah finally, been spending hours on this

the supergirl mod is new its from someones patreon (paid mod), one from this site that also isn't working is Moon Knight https://www.gta5-mods.com/player/moon-knight-addon my files look the same as yours except I don't have peds3.rpf but I doubt that's the issue, I am aware of the streamed/non-streamed differences and I made sure to put it in the correct place in peds.meta. The Moon Knight mod isn't streamed and I made sure to put all 4 files, the Supergirl mod has a 5th file for cloth (I think thats what its for, it has a cape with physics)

sure, thanks for the help btw, the file name I added to peds.rpf is Supergirl_DCEU_dreadnot and the xml is

I mean I believe you but I don't know how to explain why it crashes when they're forward slashes. That was the only thing I changed to get the game to start. Addonpeds is spelled exactly the same as the folder and I didn't rename any of the files.

@JohnFromGWN was able to stop it from crashing by changing all the forward slashes in dlclist.xml to back slashes (saw that this worked for someone else), but for me I'm still not getting the ped models to show up. Getting a ped model not found error. So for some reason it's not properly reading peds.rpf?

@JohnFromGWN ah my bad I made the classic noob mistake of not reading carefully enough, however I'm still not able to get this method to work. I deleted everything from addonpeds and installed the addonpeds template from the tutorial, placed a mod inside peds.rpf and put them in peds.meta (and I did make sure it was placed in the right category), but the game is still crashing from the addonpeds line in dlclist.xml. I tried deleting that line and it runs fine, but of course then I dont have the peds. I don't see anything wrong with the syntax, I have it as <Item>dlcpacks:/addonpeds/</Item> super confused as to what's happening here

@JohnFromGWN not working for me, that method still requires addonpeds and my game won't start with addonpeds line added in dlclist.xml for some reason so I guess I really need to figure out why it won't start when i add that line, I appreciate the suggestion though

My other mods are working just not add on peds for some reason, help would be greatly appreciated as I have no idea how it was affected by updating script hook (kinda new to modding gta v)

Were you ever able to figure this out? I’m having the same issue
