wheel pack issues

[Christovski]

I downloaded a wheel pack from the SPC team (http://spc.gta.com.ua) that was released about 2 months ago. I have not since been able to get it to work properly. I downloaded it here: http://gta.gamigo.de/download.php?do=cat&m...art=63&orderBy= (it is the third item from the top, SPC Muscle car wheel pack) It comes with the .dffs, and a few images to add to the vehicle.txd file. The .dffs work fine, and I can use them ingame, but the wheels are all one color (grey). When I go to add the image files to vehicle.txd like the readme file says to, I am unsure how to do it properly. I open the txd with TXD Workshop, insert a new image, import the file from the pack, and rename each one from "32 bit image" to whatever the image's filename was. Otherwise there would be 5 images in the txd named "32 bit image". I have tried naming them with and without the file extension (i.e. both "goodyear" and "goodyear.tga").

 

 

Either way when I add images to vehicle.txd, and I try to load a game, it crashes midway through the load. I also tried adding the images to the file wheel.txd that is in the "generic" folder with the vehicle.txd file, but it did not change anything. How can I alter the vehicle.txd in such a way that my game will not crash?

 

Thanks for taking the time to help

U need to edit vehmods.dat located in ur data/maps folder.

All is mentionned in da read me i asume.

I've had the same problem, but i find nothing about editing the veh_mod.dat thing. What do I do to fix this?

[Christovski]

veh_mods.dat is fine, I have them all set to use textures from vehicle.txd, the problem is adding the files to the vehicle.txd file, when I do add the files my game crashes when it tries to load vehicle.txd

I've contacted the creator [Pumbars] but still no word yet. Has anyone here found a solution? Or, when you first added it to the game, did they all show up? I just really want these wheels in my game

[Christovski]

when i replaced the models, (wheel_gn1.dff, etc.) they showed up in game, but not textured. I can use the wheels, but I can't add textures to the vehicle.txd folder so they look right. I can get them to work, they just don't look right.

is anyone going to help us iwth this?

[fuckindumass]

to add a texture with TXDWorkshop, duplicate an existing texture, then import your texture over it, and change the name. Much easier to get a good txd file that way than trying to add new.

[RSer]

So i make a new txd thing, but name it after something else in the vehicle_txd?

 

EDIT: I think i know what you're talking about. Duplicate, insert, rename..Time to try it out.

 

EDIT2: IT WORKS! Sweet. They look awesome.

The readme is so goddamn vague. Here is where I'm having trouble, i add the dffs with img2.0 then i try to add the new textures with txdworkshop in vehicles.txd but where do i put them? There is a total of 19 slots and looks like 2 are unused? where do i put my new textures please help i want my Crager SS look alikes.

 

EDIT The goddamn "duplicate" was hidden in the image slider lol i got them to work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i feel like such a jackass for digging up this old thread and 5 min later it works I can now say i have constructed
