Changing Car Handling

[Glenstorm]

Hi.

 

I would like to change the handling of a particular car temporarily, how do I do it?

 

For example, I want to code in such that the car I'm currently in is very light (low mass). How do I code it?

 

Please reply. This is the only factor left for me to complete a great mod im working on.

 

Cheers

I don't get it. How do I know what to look for editing the mass of a car?

I don't know.

I got a script which manipulates the handling of cheetah, don't know which handling part

I have tested and recognized a better handling then the original one

The script is made by Kotton, Big, ATP and Mindf*ck

Kottons_Chop_Shop

 

It modifies memadresses and works only if the car is created as new

get a cheetah, press M and choose Turing mode

Memory is pretty simple when you get used to it.

 

First get the car pointer (there's an opcode for that, search "car pointer").

 

I think then you do 0xB6F980 + your cars pointer.

 

Then + a number that can be found in this list: http://www.gtamodding.com/index.php?title=...esses_(SA)#Cars

 

Then you can use that variable to set the memory address with write_address.

Thanks Deji, I never spend effort to find it out

In addition I got answers from Kotton

QUOTE (Kotton@)

 

 

1@ = 0xC2B9DC

1@ += 3360 //224x15

1@ += 0xBC

0A8D: 2@ = read_memory 1@ size 4 virtual_protect 0

0A8C: write_memory 1@ size 4 value -0.16 virtual_protect 0

 

as you can see, 0xC2B9DC is the beginning of the handling block-

each slot is 224 bytes (1 slot per vehicle) ..so being that the

cheetah is the 15th vehicle in the handling.cfg (LANDSTAL being #0)

-we get 224x15 = 3360

 

then we refer to what exact address we want to modify,

+0xBC= Suspension lower limit

 

so after reading that specific address, we write the new value

 

easy eh? lol

 

so again looking at the script, you can see that we've modified

the following with each keypress..

 

+0xBC= Suspension lower limit

+0xA4 = fTractionLoss

+0x10 = fDragMult

+0xB0 = fSuspensionDampingLevel

+0x1C = CentreOfMass.z

 

______________________________________________

 

if I wanted to modify the drag I would access 0x10

 

1@ = 0xC2B9DC

1@ += 3360 //224x15 (cheetah)

1@ += 0x10 //fdrag multiplier

0A8D: 2@ = read_memory 1@ size 4 virtual_protect 0

0A8C: write_memory 1@ size 4 value 2.5 virtual_protect 0 //2.5 would be the new value

 

Ok, now the praxis

I want to make cheetah much more faster but keeps stable

It's possible if I change 3 parameter of cheetahs original handling.cfg line

Topspeed to 850.0, Acceleration to 50.0 and Drag to 1.0

 

HANDLING.CFGchange fDragMult to 1.0 and  transmission to 850.0 50.0 (fMaxVelocity/fEngineAcceleration)name       mass     turnmass  drag   centreofmass  boy traction           transmissionorig.CHEETAH      1200.0    3000.0   2.0    0.0 -0.2 -0.2  70 0.80 0.9  0.50  	5 230.0 30.0mod.CHEETAH      1200.0    3000.0   1.0    0.0 -0.2 -0.2  70 0.80 0.9  0.50  	5 850.0 50.0

 

 

I tried it with the memory codes but any manipulation of accelaeration let the cheetah slide like a soap

Drag seems to work but can not prevent the sliding

speed was possible to increase but caused crashs by driving very fast, by any bump: freeze

 

the script below: go in groovestreet into red marker to get cheetah and manipulate handling memory

i tried first 850.0 and 50.0 but cheetah was sliding a lot

itried 350.0 a d 35.0 and i tried hexcode and tried 35.0 and 5.0

cheetah was allways sliding

look for the textmessages

it shows the real value of the memadress

At the first going into read marker and keep standing there it shows the original handling memvalues

by the next going into red marker it shows the new values of the memadress

it was neccesary to multiplicate the values with 100 to show floats

(exemple: if the value would be 0.53 it will be displayed as 53)

the original value of velocitymemadress of cheetah is allways 1.04 and displayed as 104

the original value of drag of cheetah is allways 2.0 and displayed as 200

the original value of acceleration can't remember, i believe ciro

with 2.5 as write_memory of velocity can i drive 250.0

with 0.01 as write_memory of fEngineAcceleration can i drive also 250.0 and accelerate normal

I believe, this is not acceleration: 0x7C = TransmissionData.fEngineAcceleration

furthermore i'm wondering what (Multiplied by 5.5555599e-3) means

* +0x7C = TransmissionData.fEngineAcceleration (Multiplied by 3.9999999e-4)

* +0x80 = TransmissionData.fEngineInertia

* +0x84 = TransmissionData.fMaxVelocity (Multiplied by 5.5555599e-3)

What if I need to change the handling of the car I'm currently in? meaning, it can be anything, not just Cheetah.

[Wesser]

Is this more clear and easier than kotton's script?

 

0xC2B9DC : Base Memory Address

+ 0xE0 : Block Size (for each vehicle defined in vehicles.dat)

 

+ 0x.. : Related things

 

There are 212 vehicles ID which start from 400. To get our vehicle number (400 = 0, 401 = 1, ...), we have to do this (untested).

 

0xE0 * ModelID-400 + 0x..0@ = 415 // vehicle ID (cheetah)0@ -= 400 // vehicle ID - first vehicle ID = vehicle number0@ *= 0xE0 // vehicle number * bytes for each slot = vehicle block0@ += 0xC2B9DC // vehicle block + handling block = vehicle handling block0@ += 0x.. // vehicle handling block + some things0A8D: 1@ = read_memory 0@ size 4 virtual_protect 0

 

[Revolution-Designes]

I'm currently creating a CLEO3 mod and want to increase the acceleration of the car i'm currently driving in. I gave the vehicle i'm currently driving the variable 1@. And i also found this memory adress on the internet:

 

+0x7C = TransmissionData.fEngineAcceleration (Multiplied by 3.9999999e-4) 

 

But how can i put it into my script? Can i just use one code and add the memory adress to increase the acceleration or something else?

I've never done this before so it's a little difficult for me...

Here it is what you need.

 

{$CLEO}0000: NOPwhile true wait 0  if  00DF:  actor $PLAYER_ACTOR driving then   03C0: 1@ = actor $PLAYER_ACTOR car   0441: 0@ = car 1@ model   000E: 0@ -= 400    0012: 0@ *= 0xE0    000A: 0@ += 0xC2B9DC    000A: 0@ += 0x7C    0A8C: write_memory 0@ size 4 value 0.1 virtual_protect 0  endend

 

EDIT: I suppose it doesn't work since it can do it only for vehicles created as new, like ZAZ said. So ZAZ, what do you mean with this? Does it work only for created cars by .scm?

 

EDIT 2: I tried and it works with all vehicles too.

Don't i have to add a value to the code? Like 10 or 20. So the car will accelerate with 10 or 20 km/h more?

[Wesser]

It's weird but I can't get it to work with vehicles which have more than 16 as their ID. Anyone know why?

I confirm. I tried with taxi and had no effect.

[Wesser]

Finally, I found a way to solve that. Handling lines are read in groups which can be respectively divided into: cars -> bikes -> boats -> planes. Unfortunally, the lines aren't ordered like vehicles ID (handling.cfg - vehicles.ide).

 

Since we can't know what's the real line position, I wrote an external file where I put all positions per ID, picked from vehicles.ide.

 

Here is the code:

 

{$CLEO}0000: NOP4@ = 0while true wait 0  if  00DF:  actor $PLAYER_ACTOR driving then   03C0: 1@ = actor $PLAYER_ACTOR car   0441: 0@ = car 1@ model   gosub @ReadFromFile    0@ -= 400    0@ *= 0xE0    0@ += 0xC2B9DC    0@ += 0x7C    0A8D: 2@ = read_memory 0@ size 4 virtual_protect 0    0A8C: write_memory 0@ size 4 value 0.1 virtual_protect 0    4@ = 1    repeat     wait 0    until 80DF:  not actor $PLAYER_ACTOR driving else   if      4@ <> 0    then     0A8C: write_memory 0@ size 4 value 2@ virtual_protect 0      4@ = 0    end endend:ReadFromFile0A99: chdir 0 if 0A9A: 1@ = openfile "./cleo/handlingId.dat" mode 0x6272 then for 2@ = 400 to 0@    0A9D: readfile 1@ size 2 to 3@  end 0085: 0@ = 3@  0A9B: closefile 1@ endreturn 

 

Before trying it, you need the file I was talking about downloadable from here. It's not 100% tested, so please report any bugs.

 

I hope this should be useful.

Sorry for bumping an old topic but it's necessary cause I've just found an alternative and simplest way:

 

{$CLEO}0000: NOP3@ = 0while true wait 0  if  00DF:  actor $PLAYER_ACTOR driving then   03C0: 0@ = actor $PLAYER_ACTOR car   0AB1: @getVehHandlingOffset 1 from_car 0@ store_to 1@    1@ += 0x7C    0A8D: 2@ = read_memory 1@ size 4 virtual_protect 0    0A8C: write_memory 1@ size 4 value 0.1 virtual_protect 0    3@ = 1    repeat     wait 0    until 80DF:  not actor $PLAYER_ACTOR driving else   if      3@ <> 0    then     0A8C: write_memory 1@ size 4 value 2@ virtual_protect 0      3@ = 0    end endend:getVehicleNum{ Parameters:   Passed:     0@ - vehicle handle   Result:     1@ - vehicle number Example:   0AB1: @getVehicleNum 1 from_car 0@ store_to 1@ }0441: 1@ = car 0@ model1@ -= 400 0AB2: ret 1 1@ :getVehHandlingOffset{ Parameters:   Passed:     0@ - vehicle handle   Result:     3@ - vehicle handling offset Example:   0AB1: @getVehHandlingOffset 1 from_car 0@ store_to 1@ }0AB1: @getVehicleNum 1 from_car 0@ store_to 1@ 0085: 2@ = 1@ 2@ *= 0x308 2@ += 0xB1F650 2@ += 0x4E 0A8D: 3@ = read_memory 2@ size 2 virtual_protect 0 // get handling ID3@ *= 0xE0 3@ += 0xC2B9DC 0AB2: ret 1 3@

Hey guys, sorry for bringing this up after so long, but ive been a fan of ZAZ's is scripts since pimpmycar frst came out. that got me hooked to cleo scripting, but ive tried hard for a good 2 years but im still at a very beginner level. ive made a mod for the Hotring racer (hotrina) and its sorta a dragster mod, and i was wondering if ter was some way to edit that handling while i was in game.....and google led me here

 

anyway's i tried my hand at that stuff but failed, the moment i started gta sa up the game would just crash after loading a savegame. so ive been overthese scripts for a while, but ive had no luck wat-so-ever . ive also tried to make a mod that when a car shifts down a flame bursts out the eshuast...but ive done smtn wrong and the flame just stays there and after a few seconds starts lagging me like a b*tch

 

anyway's i was wondering if u guys could give me a few pointers or a little help. anyting would be fine thanx for just takin a look at this too

 

in short im just tryin to get the hotring to load a diffrent handling in game, like type 'DRAG' and it changes xD

 

Thanx in advance!

O, and i frgt...if i have to download another file or smtn like that it would be no problem at all. this mod isnt like, public. its just for me and a few buddies and whoeverelse wants it xD

There are script examples in this topic, so you can do it yourself.

I wrote a report of my tests, you should read it.

 

If you don't understand it, her's the fazit:

There are problems

 

problem1

it was not possible for every car but Wesser found a way to fix it and showed the method in his last script which he posted at Jul 26 2010

 

problem2

the game becomes unstablty if you increase the acceleration

 

problem3

it don't makes fun to write a hanglingmodscript because of problem2

Thanx for the reply and advice, ive tried it using wesser's methood agn after reading the previous post, but still the same result, i can get it to read, but it only reads vehicle mass and top speed, i think, not shure, but think..it also is reading engine inertia...it seems like that a bit but im not shure. but if i raise the top speed just a tiny bit the game crashes when the car changes gears at a high speed, it does like a small bump like *\ and come back down - and then it goes half way up and the game freezez for a little while and then crashes. so right now im just experamenting with things but i hope i can make it work. if i increase the acceleration of any car by +6 it crashes. ive tested on the infernus hotringracer and nrg...yea...nrg crashed when i accelerated lol so it was a fail. right now im trying to see if its crashing be cause of something else or cause of the speed bieng +6...cause +6 isnt really much . anyways thanx for the help really appriceate it. and btw ive got a little progress of the gear shift flame, i had the timer wrong xD

I'm very sorry to bump this old post but then I think that whenever you change the top speed, gta sa still uses old values of gear ratio. Is it possible to force the game to recalculate all the gears in order to cater for the new top speed?
