Mysterdogg Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 (edited) Mgg's Workshop Nominated as one of the best Workshops of 2018! Hey everyone, Mysterdogg here! well, I know what you're saying "but Mysterdogg, you already had a workshop..." and yeah, you're almost right, I used to have one but I was never satisfied with the result and due to my personal life, decided to request its removal. After a while, I've made a new one, this time focused on sharing my old stuff, but also new releases! Notes: Spoiler -I won't post WiP stuff, I will only post released stuff. Technically, a database. -I've decided not to include some of my old mods since are based on already existing ones or are outdated/no longer useful. -I won't accept requests but I'm always open to new ideas. of course, nothing too complicated. THINK ORIGINALLY DIFFERENT, BABY! -I'm always editing my posts here so instead of quoting entire posts please use the mention system. -If you want to share any of my stuff I encourage you to use my provided download links instead of a mirror, by doing that you will help me to keep developing my mods but also the rest of my stuff and to continue with my many projects. -Feedback is key for modders so please let me know of every bug and problem you find in my mods, even grammar errors.

Spoiler Brassnuckle on both hands By following this guide you will be able to have two brassnuckles instead of one, but not just that because you can also mimic the idea and use it with the rest of the weapons. Spoiler Working wheel physics By simply editing the "vehicles.ide" data file you have to start by looking for a selected car, then go to the "Type" section of the mentioned vehicle and change it from the default value (most of the time "car") to the new one called "mtruck". Note: it doesn't work with motorcycles, planes, boats & any other vehicle with advanced suspension. Spoiler Available damageable parts Here you can see a comparison between the default damageable parts & the restored damageable parts, mostly present in modded vehicles.

Mysterdogg Posted October 11, 2018 Author Share Posted October 11, 2018 (edited) New Guide! - Vehicle.ide analysis: Updated! Spoiler Here we have an example, the Landstalker's values: Spoiler # Id, Model name, Txd name, Type HandlingId Game name, Anims Class Frq flags Comprules # 400, landstal, landstal, car, LANDSTAL, LANDSTK, null, normal, 10, 0, 0, -1, 0.768, 0.768, 0 We only see a bunch of codes, right? well, for the inexperienced eye, those values are just complex codes for making the mentioned vehicle work as we see it in-game, but as I said, we're here for understanding those values! Let's check them one by one: Spoiler Id: 400 Model name: landstal Txd name: landstal Type: car HandlingId: LANDSTAL Game name: LANDSTK Anims: null Class: normal Frq: 10 flags: 0 Comprules: 0 WheelID: -1 WheelScale_Front: 0.768 WheelScale_Rear: 0.768 Wheel Upgrade Class: 0 Doesn't look so complex now, right? well, actually it's almost the same, but now we have those values in a more intuitive shape, let's talk about them: Spoiler Id: 400 ; Internal identifier of the model. Model name: landstal ; .dff model. Txd name: landstal ; .txd model. Type: car ; Type of vehicle (trailer, bmx, bike, train, boat, plane, heli, quad, mtruck, car). HandlingId: LANDSTAL ; Corresponding data line from Handling.cfg Game name: LANDSTK ; Corresponding data line from the .gxt files. Anims: null ; Type of animations for interacting with the vehicle. Class: normal ; Self explained (normal, poorfamily, richfamily, executive, worker, big, taxi, moped, motorbike, leisureboat, workerboat, bicycle, ignore). Frq: 10 ; Frequency on Streets. flags: 0 ; Hardcoded indicators, used for unique vehicles mostly. *Probably leftovers. Comprules: 0 ; Hardcoded indicators, used in different vehicles. *Probably leftovers. WheelID: -1 ; Leftover from previous GTAs. *You can find the wheels inside the models/generic folder. WheelScale_Front: 0.768 ; Self explained, adjust the front wheel's size. WheelScale_Rear: 0.768 ; Self explained, adjust the rear wheel's size. Wheel Upgrade Class: 0 ; Wheels tuning (-1=none, 0=Transfender, 1=Wheel Arc Angels, 2=Auto Loco) from Carmods.dat Some suggestions when editing this file: Spoiler Id ; Whenever you replace a vehicle, don't forget that this number it's a unique value, same thing for added vehicles. Model name and Txd name ; These two are a bit tricky inside vehicles.ide since we can simply replace them with another vehicle and the game will keep working, same thing with only one of them, the only requirement is to have compatible files. Type ; This value is mainly responsable of the behavior of the vehicle in-game, a way to identify how the vehicles must work inside the game. As I taught you in one of my guides, you can replace the "car" value for "mtruck" and with that bring working physics to your vehicle. HandlingId ; Similar to the .dff and .txd explanation, you can use any handling line for your vehicle, it doesn't necessarily need to be named as your vehicle, just check the Hotring cars data lines. Remember that the game has a limit of 7 characters for handling names. Game name ; Same limit as the handling. 7 characters for the .gxt data lines. Anims ; There are many anim groups for interaction. Null: Default anims, Truck anims, Van anims, BF Injetion anims, Rustler anims, Bus anims, Tank anims, Coach anims, Bikev: Scooter anims, Bikes: Sport Bike anims, Bikeh: Chooper anims, Biked: Enduro anims, Quad anims, BMX anims, Dozer anims, Choppa: Old Bicycle anims, MTB anims, Shamal anims, Vortex anims, Nevada anims, Kart anims, Wayfarer anims. Class ; This one works in a similar way to the Type section, although is is related with the zones of spawn. The idea is to relate this value with the aparience of the vehicle. Frq ; Frequency on Streets. 10 is the maximum value, while 0 is the minimum. Again directly related with Class and Type. flags and Comprules ; There are some values present in this file but are no longer used or actually doesn't affect the gameplay in any way, but in case of any bug or crash, if you ever make or replace a vehicle with custom flags, I highly recommend to keep it like that. WheelID ; No longer used value, I recommend to simply ignore it by keeping the -1 value, even vehicles with custom values like the Sanchez or the PCj600 doesn't use them. WheelScale_Front and WheelScale_Rear: ; Self explained, adjust the wheels size. Careful when changing the values, too small or too big numbers will bug your vehicle. Wheel Upgrade Class ; Wheels tuning (-1=none, 0=Transfender, 1=Wheel Arc Angels, 2=Auto Loco) from Carmods.dat. I recommend using -1 whenever you're using mods like Vehfuncs which add different wheels without the need of in-game tuning. Some further suggestions: Spoiler -Always use Modloader when adding vehicles but also when replacing the default ones; Modloader has the function of reading .txt files and detects the custom data lines inside. -Always backup your files, that's mandatory for every player and modder. Even when using Modloader. -Always test the changes you've made to the data lines, test them one by one instead of editing them all at the same time; you need to check the small differences. Sometimes one number can change the whole behavior of a vehicle. And last but not least, don't forget to reply or comment in case you have any doubts or problems when using this guide.

Mysterdogg Posted October 15, 2018 Author Share Posted October 15, 2018 (edited) New Guide! - Cargrp.dat Analysis: Spoiler Introduction: This file is really interesting actually because although we barely edit it or simply ignore it every time we mod our game, this data file it's crucial for the lore of the game. Every ped-related file it's directly linked between them and that includes the file we are analyzing right now. Just look at the traffic (both pedestrians & vehicles) of different zones (like neighborhoods) of the game, is it just coincidence that they fit the zone theme, or isn't? Let's find out! Disclaimer: Spoiler -I won't explain some parts of the data files like the name of the vehicles because we see them all the time in-game, the same thing happens with peds, which although are presented with their internal names, I can't focus on them since are partially relevant for the guide. -In order to understand this guide you need a certain level of previous knowledge editing and modifying data files, especially this one since it has a lot of functions and values linked with other data files previously mentioned in this guide. For learning how to edit this file we need to first understand its system and for that goal, we need to take a look at the popcycle.dat & pedgrp.dat files: Spoiler HMOGAR, WMYCON, WMYCONB, WMYMECH, WMYSGRD # POPCYCLE_GROUP_WORKERS (LA) WMYCON, WMYCONB, WMYSGRD, SWMOCD, HMOGAR # POPCYCLE_GROUP_WORKERS (SF) WMYCON, WMYCONB, HMOGAR, WMYSGRD, VBMOCD # POPCYCLE_GROUP_WORKERS (VEGAS) BMYAP, WMYPLT, WFYSTEW # POPCYCLE_GROUP_AIRCREW (LA) BMYAP, WMYPLT, WFYSTEW # POPCYCLE_GROUP_AIRCREW (SF) BMYAP, WMYPLT, WFYSTEW # POPCYCLE_GROUP_AIRCREW (VEGAS) BALLAS1, BALLAS2, BALLAS3 # Gang 1 (BALLAS) FAM1, FAM2, FAM3 # Gang 2 (THE FAMILIES) LSV1, LSV2, LSV3 # Gang 3 ( Los Santos Vagos) SFR1, SFR2, SFR3 # Gang 4 (San Fiero Rifa) DNB1, DNB2, DNB3 # Gang 5 (Da Nang Boys) VMAFF1, VMAFF2, VMAFF3, VMAFF4 # Gang 6 (ITALIAN MAFIA) TRIADA, TRIADB, TRIBOSS # Gang 7 (TRIADS) VLA1, VLA2, VLA3 # Gang 8 (Varrio Los Aztecas) These are example lines from pedgrp.dat, we can see that some of them have specific groups for every major zone, like Los Santos, San Fierro & Las Venturas. But we can also see some others which are alone like the gangs. Dealers Gang Cops Other Workers Business Clubbers Farmers BeachFolk Parkfolk Casual_Rich Casual_Average Casual_Poor Prozzies Criminals Golfers Servants Aircrew Entertainers oot_fact Desertfolk Aircrew_runway And if we take a look at popcycle.dat we will find those indicators. As we can see, some of those indicators match the names of the groups inside the previously mentioned pedgrp.dat file. So once we have found out that those files are related between them and that the popcycle names are already established for internal uses, we can make a list of every group from the cargrp.dat file: Spoiler # POPCYCLE_GROUP_WORKERS # POPCYCLE_GROUP_BUSINESS # POPCYCLE_GROUP_CLUBBERS # POPCYCLE_GROUP_FARMERS # POPCYCLE_GROUP_BEACHFOLK # POPCYCLE_GROUP_PARKFOLK # POPCYCLE_GROUP_CASUAL_RICH # POPCYCLE_GROUP_CASUAL_AVERAGE # POPCYCLE_GROUP_CASUAL_POOR # POPCYCLE_GROUP_PROSTITUTES # POPCYCLE_GROUP_CRIMINALS # POPCYCLE_GROUP_GOLFERS # POPCYCLE_GROUP_SERVANTS # POPCYCLE_GROUP_AIRCREW # POPCYCLE_GROUP_ENTERTAINERS # POPCYCLE_GROUP_OUT_OF_TOWN_FACTORY # POPCYCLE_GROUP_DESERT_FOLK # POPCYCLE_GROUP_AIRCREW_RUNWAY # Gang 1 [Ballas] # Gang 2 [Families] # Gang 3 [Los Santos Vagos] # Gang 4 [San Fierro Rifa] # Gang 5 [Da Nang Thang] # Gang 6 [Mafia] # Gang 7 [Triad] # Gang 8 [Barrio Los Aztecas] # Gang 9 [unused] # Gang 10 [unused] # Dealers # Boats I know what you're saying the name of the groups inside the cargrp.dat is the same found in the previously mentioned data files. And yeah, that's right, with that clear we can now say that we understand the traffic system of the game, so, what's now? is it done? actually not, we still need to understand some other parts of this file, like its limits. We have now reached that point where this file doesn't look complex at all, we can read it without any problem and even modify it, so, the only thing left is to learn about the limitations of the game and how we can take full advantage of this type of files: Spoiler -The game originally has a limit of 23 vehicles per group but curiously some groups break that limit without generating any problems in the game. The mentioned biggest group is the # POPCYCLE_GROUP_CASUAL_AVERAGE with 29 vehicles. -Here we have a picture of a mod called Zone Editor which allow us to change the zones in-game, specially made for total conversions, it's really useful for understanding the popcycle zones. -Limit adjusters like FM's Limit Adjuster have the function for breaking the previously mentioned limit but it's not recommended to change it with too high values otherwise it generates crashes and bugs. Play with safe numbers. -Open Limit Adjuster is an easy way for those who don't want to mess with FMLA. Automatically makes the vehicles per group unlimited. -One of the biggest advantages when editing this file is that it's really simple and limited, in a good sense of course, because the only thing we can do is to add or remove vehicles from the groups. It's pretty similar to edit a .ini file from a custom script. -The spawning frequency of the vehicles in every group is directly related to the position it has in the same. The frequency decreases from left to right, or as some could say, from the first vehicle to the last. Other traffic data files have this feature too. -I highly recommend using this updated file if you want to edit it or corroborate this guide. It's a more intuitive file focused for an easier reading and edition. Sources: GTA-Modding.com & my own research. Edited April 28, 2019 by Mysterdogg Updated post.

The usage is by typing the Handling ID name displayed inside the .ini. For example, if I want to spawn the Buffalo, I will type in-game "buffalo" and the car will spawn. Same thing with added vehicles, let's say I have an added car with a handling ID like "SCRMJET", once I type it I will spawn my Scramjet. Don't forget that the handling ID has a limit of seven characters so be careful when adding vehicles to the .ini file, well, by following the example inside it should be enough SonicFan99 1 Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/916322-mggs-workshop/#findComment-1070491637 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think New Vehicle Functions by Junior Djjr does exactly that, or at least something really close to your idea. Actually I was thinking of something without editing any model (I don't know why but Zmodeler is not working with my notebook). Just purely through some config with something like ID of vehicle and list of extras enable in traffic.

I've already found some bugs while testing my AK74u so I will update it. Hopefully this week I will post the rest of the pictures. Edit: 4 new pictures added.

Well, I was giving a quick look at the available opcodes and I couldn't find anyone useful for your idea. This is mostly possible with a .asi mod like Vehfuncs since extras don't use dedicated dummies. What about if we give it a look at your problem with Zmodeler? you can PM me and we will check it. Edit: I was giving it a second look and found this opcode: 0506: set_vehicle_model #MODEL next_variation 0 0 I can't promise anything but I will give it a try to your idea.

Mysterdogg Posted October 31, 2018 Author Share Posted October 31, 2018 (edited) New Guide! - Carcols.dat Analysis: Spoiler Let's start with the basics, what it does this file? well, it's one of the simplest data files of the game, since its function is only one: store and set the colors for the vehicles of the game. The file comes with 126 different colors, from basic colors like black, white, red & blue, to more rare or unusual colors like a bright pink. This file is currently one of the few without broken limits but that's practically unnecessary since 126 available colors is enough for the game but you can, of course, add more since the file supports a total of 179 colors and of course, it's also compatible with added vehicles, the only, practically, real limitation is the number of color groups per vehicle, being 8 the limit. Now we got the basics of the file, let's do the analysis; like many other data files, by simply using the notepad we can open, view and edit this file, and when we do that, we can find this information: Spoiler # This file contains all the info about the car colours. There are two # sections, col which contains the colour table and car which contains # the possible indices into the colour table for each car. # # The end column of the col section is the radio chat version of the car colour. # # Press START on controller to reload this file while the game is running. # # # # # # 1-10 service colours - careful with these # 126 hot pink - do not use # # #street, 9,73 At first sight, it's just useless information that doesn't even affect the file, right? but the truth is that it's actually introducing us how the game manages with it and the only real unnecessary part is the one related with the PS2 version, that's right, a leftover from the console version. Another interesting thing is this one: Spoiler # 1-10 service colours - careful with these # 126 hot pink - do not use # # #street, 9,73 Where it states that the colors from 1 to 10 are the "service" colors, that, as you can assume, is used mainly by the in-game service vehicles like the police & emergency units: Spoiler 0,0,0 # 0 black black 245,245,245 # 1 white white 42,119,161 # 2 police car blue blue 132,4,16 # 3 cherry red red 38,55,57 # 4 midnight blue dark blue 134,68,110 # 5 temple curtain purple purple 215,142,16 # 6 taxi yellow yellow 76,117,183 # 7 striking blue bright blue 189,190,198 # 8 light blue grey light blue grey 94,112,114 # 9 hoods light The second point is about the last color, you know, that mysterious pink, well, that color is used in the cheat funny cars: Spoiler 236,106,174 # 126 pink light And or the last point, the "street, 9,73", it's just an example of the file system, showing us that the game looks for the vehicle colors like this: Spoiler [vehicle ID], [Primary Color],[Secondary Color],[Tertiary Color],[Quaternary Color] In most of the cases, the vehicles of the game only use two colors per group, being the 3rd & 4th colors, only used by a few vehicles, like the Squalo or the Cement, but of course, modeled vehicles that support that function can also use it but needs to be stored in the "car4" section. Let's talk about now: the colors, how do they work? how can we edit them? what do they mean? the answer to all of those questions is the same: RGB colors. Let's take a look at one color from the file: Spoiler 0,0,0 # 0 black black All we see is a few numbers and words, right? well, let's analyze them: Spoiler RGB Color Internal Name Definition 0,0,0 # 0 black black -------------------------------------------------- 0,0,0 = RGB colors, being red, green and blue respectively. # 0 black = Internal name used by the game to ready every value, in this case, this color it's the number 0 of 126. black = Description made for us, since practically nobody can read RGB colors. It turns a lot easier now! by having that we can make a quick test for corroborating, let's change a bit this color: Spoiler Default Color RGB Color Internal Name Description 0,0,0 # 0 black black New Color RGB Color Internal Name Description 10,10,10 # 0 black black The change is barely noticeable for us but it makes a big difference in-game and in real-life, since pure black isn't a color, we never see it actually because black is the absence of color. Here a comparison: Spoiler The color at the left is the default value while the one at the right is our new value. A slight change but practically different colors. Let's try something else now, more for fun: Spoiler Default Color RGB Color Internal Name Description 215,142,16 # 6 taxi yellow yellow New Color RGB Color Internal Name Description 128,255,0 # 6 taxi yellow yellow This is the result in-game: Spoiler As you can see by only changing one value we can completely change the game and it doesn't get any harder than that but if you're wondering where you can get some RGB colors, don't worry about it! Microsoft it's here to make your life easier, just open your Paint software and click on "Edit Colors", a pop-up screen will appear with all the necessary information! but in case you want something more serious or a specific color, just browser it! the web is plenty of sites dedicated to store and share colors in RGB, HEX and many other formats. Some further information & Final notes: Spoiler -Always use Modloader when editing this file, it's the best way to not mess it up but thanks to R*, whenever that happens every colorable vehicle in-game will be entirely black. -Remember that the file has its own limits, a limit for available colors being 179 and a limit for the colors per group, being 8. -If you want to use the 4th color system, you will need to adapt your vehicle model with it, you can find the compatible/required material colors here. -In the "sources" section, you can find a link that provides you a visual graphic showing every color of the game.

SonicFan99 Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 I not sure if it happens to you before, but when I drive cars that are added FURTHER, the game screen freezes that I got to restart, especially in Total Conversions. Why does that happen, does it depend on the mod or something else?????? Is like as if I can only drive them for a short period of time, it's inconvenient.

There's probably something else messing with the game, check the available IDs that you're using for adding those vehicles, also check the models itself, the source of the crash could even be a "wrongly" designed vehicle. Check the limits of the TC and see if your reaching any of them, and last but not least, pay attention at where the crash usually happens, there could be a zone in the map that causes it. I can suggest a bunch of things but since I don't play with TCs and I don't know which one you're using, it's hard to deduce a solution.
