carcols.dat 13 Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 (edited) Edit: Looks like this has almost been solved! ENB found a way to fix this for most cars. Install ENB and use the following enbseries.ini. If you don't like the way the light orbs look or they are buggy, change Type=0 to Type=2. If the linked enbseries.ini doesn't work, then use the default .ini. ---------------------------- Original post: Any updates on how R* disabled car damage for roofs and doors? This is seriously the biggest issue in the game and needs priority. Did they bake it into the models files or what? Edited July 17, 2015 by Darlyn Link to post Share on other sites
hesselgren 704 Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 R* will probably fix it again, and break some other stuff instead.. Link to post Share on other sites
Drkz 70 Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 (edited) Bet my ass this value is hidden somewhere in .ymt files. Maybe i'm giving these .ymt files way too much credit but i bet my left asscheek that some real crucial stuff is in them. Edited May 19, 2015 by Drkz 1 Link to post Share on other sites

PißWasser 4 Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 (edited) I also have made a topic on this and didnt really get any informative reactions on it. Are we really the only ones who care about this? I see tons and tons of mods trying to make the game more realistic, but no-one has been bothered about THIS yet? It looks so f*cking stupid when your car explodes or lands on the top and the roof and doors are still in perfect shape. How could R* even do this? Have they lost their mind or something? Might as well remove doors and roof entirely in next gta from cars? I really can't believe they've actually made it this way. wtf. Edited May 19, 2015 by PißWasser Link to post Share on other sites
Fireboyd78 384 Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 181 hours so far on the PC version and I haven't really noticed the lack of door/roof deformation. I'm pretty sure we can live without it. Vehicle interiors would get screwed up because of it, and it would give people something else to bitch about. 4 Link to post Share on other sites

Not everyone gives a sh*t about first person view, so having the option to enable proper deformation again would be cool. 5 Link to post Share on other sites
PißWasser 4 Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 They could just kick you out of first person view when your roof damages. Or the player could just dug? Or he'd be dead like in real life unless you're using godmode? 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Cadde 3 Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Or one could, you know if they play in first person like I do, just get over it. If you end up on your roof so hard that it caves in and "massacres" the viewport then you are technically dead anyways and so is your vehicle. And if one still wants to go on with a roofline in his viewport then there's always 3rd person view... 1 Link to post Share on other sites
InfamousSabre 222 Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Or, if we can test whether the roof is caved in, we could always just force the player to duck. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
oCrapaCreeper 2,306 Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 (edited) Or, if we can test whether the roof is caved in, we could always just force the player to duck. Forcing the player to duck would not solve much. Giving the sides and roof of cars full deformation again without it looking bad would require the interiors and dashboards of the cars to have damage models. Plus ducking would do nothing for player clipping on the sides of the car. Edited May 20, 2015 by oCrapaCreeper Link to post Share on other sites
carcols.dat 13 Posted May 20, 2015 Author Share Posted May 20, 2015 I don't really care what happens to the player. Have it noclip through like it did previously. Whatever. The point is, deformation needs to be enabled somehow. Anything is better than zero damage. Link to post Share on other sites

My best guess is that if no one has done it yet, it's not something that can simply be changed in notepad or something. I assume turning it on would involve changing the actual models of the cars.

I wouldn't care if the FP cam just went right through the roof, but it would look better if the player was forced to duck. Link to post Share on other sites
A5R 93 Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 R* went seriously lazy with this and f*cked it up completely. They could've come up with way better solutions instead of completely removing damage.On top of that they advertised it as improved damage. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
FlyingAce 5 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 What if they made the door and roof deformation invisible in first person? like make the whole car a "first person view model" so you dont even see the "third person call model" in first person... so the damage on them only appears in third? 2 Link to post Share on other sites

b0ssVenom 154 Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 (edited) Someone may be able to change the limits, it is probably coded into physics engine thought. These limits were there in GTA 4 as well, it's nothing very new. Look how much for example you can damage Comet until you hit the deformation limits: We really need to adjust that.

There's nothing to fix, it's made the way it is intentionally. but there was a time when you could smash the roof down with a golfclub, then they did something so it couldnt be done anymore, then they fixed it back, and now they fixed it away again.

It's intentional because they probably weren't sure if it's necessary to keep these roof limits, but then they decided to enable the limit again, because of heads popping through the roof.

carcols.dat 13 Posted May 25, 2015 Author Share Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) Okay, enough about how R* should have done it. It doesn't matter. The key point is that modding needs fix it. Back to the original question: has any progress been made? Especially now that it's possible to edit view some of the vehicle models textures.

PißWasser 4 Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 I think there's no progress yet because most modders are more focussed on opening the yft files, trying to make cars editable etc. Link to post Share on other sites
Crimson Flam3s 681 Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Funnily enough, I was searching for any clues for these deformation values for an hour today, and found these ymt files. I strongly suspect ,whatever disabled the roof and doors collisions, lies there. Couldn't open these files and did a google search on them just to end up here. Hopefully this will be resolved soon, I'm sure it will, it just takes time. Link to post Share on other sites

Crimson Flam3s 681 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 (edited) I can't remember their names right now but I do have them bookmarked. Also I had an idea yesterday. If we can download a ps3/360 copy of the game and compare it's vehicle related content to the pc maybe we could find a clue. I downloaded common.rpf and I'm still examining it. If only I knew which files deal with a car's deformation, the ones that I think do that, are the ones we can't open yet. Edited May 28, 2015 by Crimson Flam3s Link to post Share on other sites

In the X360 version, the vehicles are in xbox360b.rpf/models/cdimages/vehicles.rpf. You can get vehicles.rpf in this thread (195 MB). In the PC version, they are in x64e.rpf\levels\gta5\vehicles.rpf We'll have to wait until OpenIV is updated to view the PC files, though. This feature hasn't been made public yet.

Gamester42 9 Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 When you guys say it was working before; do you mean a certain PC patch version had full the damage working or only on PS3/360? Link to post Share on other sites
