[TuT] Adding cars to GTA SA

[Neddo]

This tutorial needs a redux

[Jeansowaty]

Good I managed to fix it, I have 4 more cars added! All the gangs will have unique cars now

[savidge]

So far I added one car and one helicopter. They work, but have no sound.

Use fastman92's VehicleAudioLoader.asi Also, where did you get that four-door Manana from?

There is a suggestion by Alihunter, which does work.

Step 1: Open cargrp.dat, and find # Cheat 2 (fast cars). First and most importantly, BACKUP your CARGRP.DAT

That is the section, which when the cheat "EVERYONEISRICH" is entered, where those cars mentioned are spawned. If you want to find your car faster, erase all the cars in that list, and put there the name of your new added car. Or, if you want it to make those cars appear, just add your new car. Like this:

buffalo, infernus, cheetah, banshee, hotknife, turismo, zr350, comet, supergt, bullet, uranus, jester, sultan, elegy, flash, euros, club, phoenix, fordgt, # Cheat 2 (fast cars)

The bolded part is the new car. It will spawn naturally when you entered the cheat.

Let me know if it worked Credits goes to Alihunter

Double post. Sorry.

 

Hey! I found out the handling problem you guys are talking about.

When I added a Ford GT into the game, I installed my custom handling line. (which is FORDGT <blablabla>) THAT causes the wrong suspension thingy, and crashing of the game. What I did, is I used the BLOODRB line. This line was not used in the game, so I "recycled" it. Example:
BLOODRB <your custom handling line>

Then, in vehicles.ide, find your new car's IDE line. Then, change the third "name" to BLOODRB. If you don't understand, it's like this:

613, fordgt, fordgt, car, FORDGT, FORDGT, null, executive, 4, 0, 0, -1, 0.78, 0.82, 0 into --->

613, fordgt, fordgt, car, BLOODRB, FORDGT, null, executive, 4, 0, 0, -1, 0.78, 0.82, 0

Well yeah, adding NEW handling entries causes issues. But there is some duplicated entries which can be reused (without changing their names) and the game will work just fine.

Yeah. I hope in the future versions, it would be fixed, or someone might make a new, more stable one.

By the way, you mentioned "duplicate entries". That means BLOODRB is not the only line not used? If so, can you mention the other handling lines so I could use them for adding new cars?

I'm trying to add a kuruma from GTA 3, if this works i'll try to add a Helicopter.

I Can't find it though.

alright, works. but the name doesn't show up properly, i don't think that's a problem for me. i'll try another car now.

(little question: if you were adding a helicopter, how could you find it? like, a spawn-point?)

Question: What is the name-line of your new car? (The string of your new one, like KURUMA)

It's like this: Install CLEO3 or higher in your GTA San Andreas root directory (where the gta_sa.exe is). You probably know that.

Then, make a folder in the CLEO folder found in your San Andreas root directory, if there isn't one (You will have one after installing). Name it to "CLEO_TEXT" without quotes, caps or not.

Inside CLEO_TEXT folder, make a notepad.

Open the new notepad, and type:

<your new car's string> <SPACE> <your new car's name>

Example:

FORDGT Ford GT

EDIT:

I forgot changing the file extension.

Before you save it, click "Save As" in File menu, name it to "<any name you want>.FXT

Yes, it must have the extension of "*.fxt" or it won't read the file.

 

 

Note: If your new car's handling line has a space (Example: FORD GT), I require you to make the space into an underscore (Example: FORD_GT). Your new car's name won't appear it's name because instead of reading the whole line (the FORD GT), what it will read is only the ones before the space (FORD). It's better to have an underscore.

 

 

 

Spawning a helicopter? Try doing the "EVERYONEISRICH" method. If not, I think making your own CLEO mod spawner will work, and it requires a great skill of coding. I ain't a master of making ones.

I want to add 3 extra police cars (1 extra for each district). Will I be able to make them spawn with the other cop cars during chases?

I asked for this like monthes ago, and the community replied me that its impossible because its hardcoded

But if someone know how to do this it will be awesome !

[bojeddr32]

Hmmm.. How about making a CLEO mod? That could work.

yeah, but how long would it be before its perfected. I personally dont rely on cleo scripts that involve gameplay (other than menu's like the vehicle spawner) because they tend to crash when you use them constantly - and i run from cops way too often. I'd be worried about it OVER spawning that vehicle.

 

Like that mod "trucks with trailers". They were everywhere, normal cars didnt even spawn after a while.

Yeah, that audio loader by fastman is the single one that worked for me.

[savidge]

fastman92's Car Spawner is better for spawning added vehicles, and they appear with their GXT entry too, so it's easier to navigate.

[GODOFGAME]

Thanks For The Info

[Jinx.]

Now I can test the added cars without finding it. Thx

[GODOFGAME]

Is Good Idea Put The New Cars Pranked But Is Better Spawn Front You.

Hello,

I Added my car in GTA SA. My game work fine but i have a problem.

Paintjobs always work just fine for replaced cars, but it would seem that the game bug (It doesn't recognize the extra txd files of added cars).

Of the blow, every car have a paintjob option in Transfender, even the cars who don't have "paintjobs".txd files inside gta3.img. The paintjobs are messed up (black paintjob), and including all the default ID's and files i didn't even touch.

 

Is there a solution to solve this problem ?

 

Thank you in advance for your answers.

 

sorry for my bad english.
