@CrzBonKerz said in [Tutorial | Vehicles/Weapons] How to do: Add-On's / Replacer's:

@meimeiriver I started a system where I define each of my modkits with whichever ID I will be referencing. For example, with my first car, I started with 255, and am working backwards. Issue I'm starting to run into is for some reason, I can't respray some cars, but others work fine. Not sure if this is a modkit thing?

Yep, that's a modkit thing (or rather, a car ID thing, to which modkits are linked). You've probably overiden some earlier defined car ID's. If your car can't be tuned any more, then it's always a car ID issue (barring xml errors, of course).

0_default_modkit

It it also always adviseable to define 0_default_modkit, even if you don't need your car to be tunable. If not, and you use a trainer, like Menyoo, to change, say, the wheels, your game will crash. Always let it fall back on something.

Btw, smugger than who?

I'm going to skip this one too. Who has enough car ID's left for all these extra DLC's?! Not me.

@Silentghost In vehicles.meta, you could try and match each <modelName> with <gameName>. But for addon DLC's, the latter rarely seems to yield useful names.

nstall mega add-on cars pack mods

I'd say the solution is simple: don't add those 'mega add-on cars pack mods.' Personally, I'm very picky about which cars I want added (like 75 now total or so). Aka, be selective. Besides, you don't have enough valid car ID's for thousands of addon cars; in fact, you only have 255 max.

Dear meimeiriver,thank you very much for replying to me!
You know my wish is to install those mega add-on cars pack mods;and please tell me why they don't work for me,when the modder guarantees that they work?
Is there something that I could do to make them work?
Please help me!

I'm not sure who the modder is, or whether those cars are even supposed to all have valid Car ID's, but the Car ID variable, in game, is hardcoded as an 8-bit value: so, ranging from 0-255. And that's it; doesn't matter whether you see a car ID of 18,7654 or something: those simply 'wrap' to byte-value (masked with 0xFF, so to speak), and will internally just be seen as an 8-bit value. Always. Hence, you can't install a pack with thousands, or even hundreds of cars, that are all supposed to have a valid car ID (when it's invalid, btw, then you can't tune your car).

So, no matter what a modder guaranteed you, there's only one modder that counts here, Unknown Modder is his name, and he discovered, and demonstrated quite convincingly, from the source code, that car ID is an 8-bit value -- no matter what others tell you.

@Theoasterix said in Crash with only one add-on...:

Hello, I'm doing my 5th car and im near of the end. I make it in add-on but... It crashes ! Same if I take the files from some other mods made by me... The error is ERR_SYS_FILELOAD . Please help me !

I'd be inclided to say you made a boo-boo in the XML files; run your addon DLC meta data (carcols.meta, vehicles.meta, etc) thru an XML Validator for a change (that's a good practise anyway, and will save you a lot of headaches).

@COD-MASTER-123 said in @COD-MASTER-123; about missing files... (How to bring back original game files from original RPFs):

Fixed but thanks

If you want a pre-gunrunning version, simply do what I did: remove patchday15 and gunrunning from your dlclist.xml file, and you'll effectively have the older version running. I did that because I only have a few valid Car ID's left, and didn't want to give those up for gunrunning.

@TobsiCred said in gotta previous version before update...?:

for sure, just 70gb. should be available soon. 1:1 original game files,i think thats totally legal. oh wait, you quit, like you mentioned in your previous topic, so no need to send you anything, great, goodbye

Where did you get the idea that distributing original game files is allowed here?! It isn't, people. Don't ask, don't offer.
