Add-on vehicle spawning problems [SOLVED]

FiveM Resource Development Discussion
1

Hey all, I’ve been having issues spawning cars I’ve added, I downloaded the Mazda rx7, Subaru gt V2 and the demon hawk from the GTA Mods site and converted them into resources using Open IV, added the start lines to server.cfg

When trying to spawn them via the name they just don’t spawn, it doesn’t come up with any errors, they just don’t appear

I’ve checked everything I can think of, all the names are the same in all meta files, the __resouce file is all correct, file sizes I think are all below the required limit

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Anyone?

Also now tried with an R33 Skyline, Ferrari F8 and an Audi R8

They just wont spawn, no errors or anything

Hi,

check the log client when you try to spawn the car

4

I did that but its not showing anything, really has me stumped

5

did you already spawn some addon car (just for know) ?

try with addon vehicle share by the community then copy/check with your vehicle

Yes I’m able to spawn addon vehicles that I’ve downloaded from this site (already converted to a resource by someone else)

Problem only comes with vehicles I have converted myself so I guess I must be doing something wrong somewhere, only thing I have added is the __resource.cfg file

resource_manifest_version '77731fab-63ca-442c-a67b-abc70f28dfa5'
 
files {
    'vehicles.meta',
    'carvariations.meta',
    'carcols.meta',
    'handling.meta',
    'vehiclelayouts.meta',
}

data_file 'HANDLING_FILE' 'handling.meta'
data_file 'VEHICLE_METADATA_FILE' 'vehicles.meta'
data_file 'CARCOLS_FILE' 'carcols.meta'
data_file 'VEHICLE_VARIATION_FILE' 'carvariations.meta'
data_file 'VEHICLE_LAYOUTS_FILE' 'vehiclelayouts.meta'

Thats my resource file, I keep checking it but looks fine?

yes look fine,

if you just extract the YTD en YTF from the RPF, you don’t need to modify some META

so you are on the well way, be sure about your start, and load the car in game with a trainer

(if the entity not exist, the client console will return “entity empty”)

Yes I extracted the YTF and YTD files from the RPF file into a steam folder and extracted the meta files into the main folder for the car and added the resource file above into the same folder, also added the start line to the server.cfg, tried to spawn it in with vmenu and get no response, as if its trying to spawn it but it just doesn’t appear

I checked the F8 console after trying to spawn it but from what I can see it isn’t bring up any errors, but I will check it again and make sure and get back to you

The first picture shows the ferrari f8 has loaded, second picture there is no errors showing after trying to spawn it, that I can see anyway

share your folder of the vehicle then i will check it

ferrari.zip (17.3 MB)

Thats the folder for the ferrari :slight_smile:

you need to extract the carcols.meta from rpf

Rename the “steam” folder to “stream”
ferrarif8.zip (17.3 MB)
That file should work.

Oh my good god, what an absolute idiot I am, all my problems because I had steam instead of stream, thank you so much

Thanks to both of you :grinning:
