3 questions about vehicles...

Recommended Posts

Does anybody know...

 

-Where are the Bati Custom (TLAD) liveries located?

-What's the best way to edit the American.gxt file and add new vehicle names? I tried several GXT editors and none seem to work...

-What can I use to import / export sound files? Particularly vehicle sounds?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

EDIT: 4 questions, I forgot one. How exactly do I edit the cargrp.dat file to make some vehicles have a 50% spawn rate, others to be very rare (10%) and others to not spawn at all? I tried adding the vehicles in every group and not adding them at all, and in both cases they seem to spawn as soon as I spawn one vehicle of that type.

Where are the Bati Custom (TLAD) liveries located?

I suppose them in the .img archive where the vehicle model files are also located.

 

 

What's the best way to edit the American.gxt file and add new vehicle names? I tried several GXT editors and none seem to work...

Try this one: http://www.x-squares.com/File/i/47/X-GXT-Editor.aspx

It worked for me with patch 1.0.3, 1.0.4 and 1.0.0.4. Open your specific text file, then choose "MAIN" on the top left side, then scroll down on the right side and look for the car names.

 

 

What can I use to import / export sound files? Particularly vehicle sounds?

Try this tool: http://www.gtagaming.com/downloads/gta-iv/tools/3996

 

 

How exactly do I edit the cargrp.dat file to make some vehicles have a 50% spawn rate,...

Try to edit the eighth and ninth value from the left side in the vehicles.ide file (common/data/ folder). Stay away from the cargrp.dat.

Normally you´ll find something like "100, 999,". If this represent the standard spawning then you need to half both values. First value is "Frequency", second value is "MaxNumber".

Setting both to 1 will let you drive a vehicle that no one else will drive then.

The liveries are elsewhere. I extracted everything from TLAD's vehicles.img when I started moving the vehicles.

 

I already tied that GXT editor and, besides the fact that it broke my internet connection, it doesn't seem to work. I have the (legal) version 1.1.2.0 of EFLC, and 1.0.7.0 of normal IV but I'm not modding that one yet.

 

I'll try the last 2 suggestions, thanks.
