Replacing 4th character in the switch wheel

[imViolet]

Is this possible with SHVDN or any modding framework currently available? I'm guessing that it's likely at least exposed to the scripts seeing as it's switched out for Chop in a few missions. I'm looking to create a mod that allows you to switch to another pre-defined PED.

The 4th spot is also used for the online character if you drop back to story mode from online. Not sure what happens if you do that and then do a story mode mission, maybe the online character is removed from the wheel during missions.

 

There are a lot of unknown natives in the Streaming section of the NativeDB and it's possible one of them might be involved. Maybe one of the Native watcher scripts might help. You'd still have the problem of trying to override the game trying to handle the player switch though and that would be the hard part as you'd need to allow it to happen if it was one of the main 3 (or 4 or 5) characters. Once you've switched to an addon ped, you lose the ability to switch back to a main character though, only the default game characters let you bring up the character wheel... so that's something to be aware of.

 

I wanted to do something like this and ended up writing my own character-wheel system that works alongside the main wheel, just seemed to be the easiest way to deal with things.
