There are two ways to do it...

 

Manual installs require GTAIMG and tapping into files such as handling and default as well as renaming, deleteing, and backing up original files.

 

Auto Installs require a program called VCMM which is for VCM cars which are a hell of a lot easier to install but once you get the hang of GTAIMG it's not so bad.

Please keep discussions on the forum - that way others can benefit from these topics in future, too.

My bad my bad ok here goes....

 

I don't know what car your using but I'll use one of mine as an example...

 

BTTF.TXD

BTTF.DFF

You need to assign these cars a replacement so pick any car in GTA VC you'd want to replace.

 

EX Deluxo...

 

OPen GTA IMGTool and find your GTAVC folder, go into Models Subfolder and open GTA3

 

Go through GTA IMGTool Search for Deluxo.TXD & Deluxo.DFF... backup these files if you want to. Extract them to a backup folder.

 

After that delete DELUXO DFF and TXD.

 

Go back to BTTF.TXD and BTTF.DFF. Rename them to Deluxo.TXD and Deluxo.DFF.

 

Go back into GTA IMGTool and ADD these files.

 

Now thats just the hard part.

 

For Most cars you need DMagics wheel mod or else the wheels you saw in the picture for your ride won't be there.

 

No go into GTAVC Data folder and open up default.IDE

Search for Deluxo

 

211, deluxo, deluxo, car, DELUXO, DELUXO, null,executive, 10, 6,0,249, 0.76

 

And change it too

211, deluxo, deluxo, car, DELUXO, DELUXO, null, ignore, 10, 6, 2ff0, 249, 0.72

This gives your ride its custom wheels.

 

Now go into handling.cfg and change it from

1660.0 2.3 4.5 1.6 0.0 0.0 -0.4 70 1.4 0.98 0.48 5 250.0 37.0 R P 23.1 0.55 1 26.0 1.9 0.13 0.2 0.3 45000 0.3 -0.03 0.5 A183 1 1

 

to

1600.0 2.2 4.9 1.7 0.0 0.0 0.2 -1 1.1 0.85 0.52 5 200.0 26.0 4 P 10.0 0.53 0 35.0 2.25 0.16 0.28 0.50 35000 0.27 -0.16 0.50 0.35 8107 0 1

PEOPLES THIS HANDLING IS THE sh*t!! TRY IT OUT ON ANY CAR I found it. IT'S NOT MINE I JUST FOUND IT!!! Makes your car faster than the PCJ or the hotring!!!!

 

Note, some cars come with COLL files you'll need Coll Editor. This is just the body for those really detailed cars such as the GTO

 

 

Sometimes your ride will come with a carcols text such as CHEETAH, 1,1, 3,3, 6,6, 46,46 . This is paint. Tells the game what colors your car can and canNOT be alowed to be painted. Also some have intricate designs such as the firebird and others can only be one color like LOVEFIST.
