Killin it dawg killin it! All dope. #3 is my favorite.

Feel bad for you guys whos games are broke. I know nothing about computers. I just follow the instructions to the letter and hope for the best lol. Luck seems to be on my side. My Steam and EGS versions work perfect. All I did was revert and re-download / update my Rockstar Launcher.

@JohnFromGWN Yeah we all know that frustration things not working.
If its a case of not backing up then its a harsh lesson we all need to learn at some point and for many the hard way.
Me im not even a computer guy. I find the trick to getting things working is excellent tutorials / explanations like ones you do.
I always keep it all as simple as possible, but not simpler. Einstein words.

My take. Mods should be free. Simple.
First and foremost a hobby / passion modders do for themselves.
Not for ego driven pats on the back. Not chump change considering the time and effort involved.
Once money creeps all gets tainted. Example. For every $20 an individual modder takes the community as a whole loses out tenfold. End result is the current mod situation.
Ftr. Far superior ways to make that legit money than selling Patreon mods lol.

@JohnFromGWN Naw dawg. Not yet anyway. Still working perfect.

To the best of my ability tried the excellent suggested advice. Unless im doin it wrong no luck.

Using the Codewalker exported _hi.yft.xml file I checked all the matDiffuseColor lines. The RGB x, y, z number combos were all either blue or white. No yellow/ orange.

It mentioned script_rt_dials_dukes. I found that file in only 2 locations
x64e / levels / gta5 / vehicles.rpf / vehicles_worn_interior.ytd
x64e / levels / gta5 / vehicles.rpf / vehicles_tornado_interior.ytd

I Photoshopped the yellow / orange dial needles image to white.

All way above my paygrade lol. If anyone knows what im doin wrong please advise thanks.

Out of curiosity just tested reverting EGS vers from latest to 2545. Worked perfect.

@Aurora11 Thanks dawg! I appreciate the time and effort for the clarification and explanation.

Does anyone know is it possible to change dial needle colors for locked add-on cars please?

For example in the 5th pic of this locked add-on car. Dial needles are yellow / orange but I want to change them to white or a color close to white.

Btw. I searched and found these threads but not entirely sure if they are relevant to my question. Apologies if they are.
