[handling.dat] Explained

How to set braking correctly?

 

 

I set "Tb" to 100, does not working.

 

 

More, what is "thb"? orly.gif  orly.gif  orly.gif

Well thats a bit tricky.Just like u said, Thb has no effect as I first saw, and is not

even in the description.

SA had brake force, bais and abs.So my first shot was its abs(which would be great)

but does inpact the hand brake, hence the name , ... dooh.

So the wheels lock up easily which sucks if you'r playing with digital control.

Only way is to set "m_fTractionCurveMin" (Wc-) higher.But that changes also

acceleration grip.

 

btw. I think 1.0 is the max value for "braking force".

Don't sweat it, I'm building a handling editor at the moment ph34r.gif

go go more editors, so we can make more mod's cool.gif

It's coming, and I think it's gonna be sweet.

Probably not the most respected tool, since "handling.dat" is one of the easiest things to mod in GTA.

Nevertheless, it will have sweet features and should be a relief for less experienced users. For example it will have options saying "Make (All) Vehicle(s) ...% faster/slower", "Make immune" and "Make Drifter".

Ultimately it should have sliders, which will automatically modify multiple values, based on their initial balance, plus easy checkbox-style display for model/handling flags.

 

For whoever wants to know, I have chosen AutoIt as the language to build the tool. This because it's VERY easy to do nearly everything you want in Windows. So yeh, it will probably stay a Windows-only application, though there will also be an x64 version.

In it's current stage it doesn't have editing or saving capabilities yet, just data parsing, display etc.

  • That's also how I have created my immune vehicle, I don't understand why people say that it's impossible while they haven't even tried it.

    I've heard that it's not 100% though, it can still take damage from rockets and grenades, I haven't tested this yet.

  • I haven't thought about the vehicle edit only method, sounds like fun though smile.gif

I would like to know which attribute increases the acceleration of the cars after lets say a sharp curve you get pretty high curbed what really sucks....

 

anyone can help ?

[C] fDragMult: Drag. Lower is less drag, so better speeds. Try 0.1

[Tf] m_fDriveForce: Acceleration power. Try (Default x 3)

 

I have such values on a VERY heavy vehicle though, so watch it tounge.gif

Nice man! Im a AutoIt fan myself biggrin.gif Love that tool. If you need help, let me know would love to help out smile.gif

I made a handling editor:

 

GTA IV HANDLING EDITOR V1.0

http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=385566

 

It includes a Backup\Bypass tool so your modifications will work in game.

 

I didn't add any descriptions to the values yet... but will in the future.

 

i was messing around with the suspension for the cars and these are my findings for ride height and the upper and lower limits

 

(Su) m_fSuspensionUpperLimit: maximum upper limit that the suspension will travel in relation to the height of the car

(Sl) m_fSuspensionLowerLimit: maximum lower limit the suspension will travel in relation to the height of the car

(Sr) m_fSuspensionRaise: actual height of the car (0.0 is default height)

 

and from my findings i have come to believe the multiplyer is set in centimeters (ie a SU of .10 would allow the suspention to tavel about 3 and half inches up from is orginal right height, and SL of -0.15 would allow for about 6 inches of travel down from the cars original ride height, so that would give the car about 10-11 inches of total suspension travel) i like the way R* did this it makes it much easier to adjust right heights and suspension travel for when we start importing cars

lol.gifbiggrin.gif

 

i hope my finding can help out some how

 

i want to make a car handle like it's on rails.

 

perfect turns without sliding.

 

can anyone do that?

I basically followed this link :

GTA IV IRL Handling Mod

 

Then did some very small modifications :

It handles quite nicely, has *amazing speed & acceleration*, and has a few problems with small bumps at high speed biggrin.gif

Have you downloaded Magic Patcher or something like that, before you modded this file... Or else it doesn't have any effects bbq.gifbbq.gifbbq.gifbbq.gifbbq.gifbbq.gif
