how do i change the vehicles in the script file?

[assfokka]

Hi! I'm new to modding and i want to change ryder's car to something else, so when i play the 'ryder' mission, some other vehicle appears.

[ArmanCan]

hello @assfokka welcome

 

i'm also new to modding but i found these values for you..

 

09E2: $2764 = parked_car_generator_w_numberplate #PICADOR colors 84 84 force_spawn 0 alarm 0 door_lock 0 min_delay 0 max_delay 10000 plate "_SHERM__" at $142 $143 $144 angle $145 
0A17: set_parked_car_generator $2764 to_player_owned 1 
014C: set_parked_car_generator $2764 cars_to_generate_to 101

 

This is the "force spawn opcode" for Ryder's car.. you MAY try to DELETE the global variable $2764 first (Change "force_spawn 0" value to "force_spawn 1" to activate force spawn)

 

00A6: destroy_car $2764

 

 and than enter these three codes with different model and maybe license plate/color (color -1 -1 makes your desired car color randomized).. you may have to define new coordinates by using Sanny Builder's Coords and Angle Tool This MAY change the Ryder's car to your desired model when there is no new mission.. I can not guaranntee it and i'm not responsible for anything..

 

If your intention is to change Ryder's vehicle with different model during missions you have to edit the Ryder's missions in "Main.scm" but it is difficult and not recommended.. only experts can do this but i don't think they will do your request..

 

Edit: I forgot to say.. after doing that your save file can be written with these values so there is an opcode series to prevent that..

You will just tweak the values of 09E2 command without touching the local variable.. 

 

Keep in your mind there is a limit to use local variables..  and i still can not guarantee if it's works and i'm not responsible of anything..

 

Third Edit: It partly works.. sometimes this picador returns to default one during some missions..I've only played "Ryder" but off course game loaded the default picador but in returning part game started to load a randomized color Picador..

Thanks man, you are awesome, like really!!!

 

Also I found out, that if i simply change allmost all the #picador tags to the cartag i want, for example:

 

09E2: $2764 = parked_car_generator_w_numberplate #SENTINEL colors 0 0 force_spawn 0 alarm 0 door_lock 0 min_delay 0 max_delay 10000 plate "_SHERM__" at $142 $143 $144 angle $145

than it will work just fine, i get a black sentinel.

I haven't tried if this still works after let's say 'tagging' up turf, but since i only need this for the ryder mission, i didn't even check it
