Car mod shows up in GGMM but is invisible in game

I have this car mod that I did, and at first everything seemed normal. I set up the heiarchy and stuff in Zmodeller 2.2.4(?) and exported to .dff format(YES, I MADE SURE IT WAS THE CORRECT FORMAT). I made a TXD and everything for it too. I installed the files into my GTASA and then checked GGMM to make sure nothing was screwed up. The car showed up perfectly in GGMM, but it is INVISIBLE in GTASA. If I try to spawn it with a trainer, nothing happens. The car simply DOES NOT APPEAR. Where the car should have spawned is totally empty, with no vehicle model or collisions loaded where the car should be. I searched the web for answers to this issue but surprisingly, I found very little that could help me. There was one guy who had encountered this issue and had figured out a solution, but he was not kind enough to post how he did it. So, could anyone who has encountered this please tell me how to fix this?

 

PS: I will give the files to anyone who can help via PM ONLY because I don't want people fixing my files and claiming them as their own.

Are you sure you rebuilt gta3.img after replacing the files?

Well, first I tried installing with SAMI, but the car was invisible. So I uninstalled the mod and then re-installed the files using Spark. STILL invisible. It must be something with the files, because this doesn't happen with any other car mod.

 

Clarification in case anybody misunderstands my problem: its not that I installed the files and the original car appeared(I have WinDOPE 7 so I know how to avoid that crud). The problem is that I install the mod(replaces phoenix) and NOTHING appears when I spawn the car. Not the original phoenix, not the car mod, not even a collision(which would mean that the model is ok but the TXD is not). Zip, Nada, Zilch. NOTHING, nothing at all.

Spark does not support rebuilding archive. Use IMG Tool 2.0 instead, replace your files again and rebuild the archive (Commands > Rebuild archive).

You can read more here on how rebuilding the archive does affect the img archive smile.gif

@ilir: I rebuilt the .img archive and..... NADA. Rebuilding it had no effect, and the model still wont show up. It has to be,as I had asserted before, something with the mod files themselves, but I have NO CLUE what it is. If anyone has had this problem before and figured out a solution, can you please tell me what to do? I'm getting desperate here and I'm beginning to think the game is doing this just to piss me off. suicidal.gif

I've got the same problem as u, i made my own mod (first mod see signature) and if i try to spawn nothing comes up, i spawn with a car spawn script, my script frozens. Nothing helps. Someone knows the problem?

(^Grammar fix for clarification^)

 

Sorry, but I want this thread to be as clear as possible, so I may fix a post if I feel it needs to be clarified. Nothing personal.
