hi all,
i want to create lore-friendly emergency vehicles from vanilla cars. However i can´t figure out how i can create a resource from the games vehicles.
I know where to find .yft and .ytd files as well where to finde the coresponding vehicle.meta
I also allready added some stuff to certain cars in Zmod.
The server recognizes my modified cars as resource and there aren´t any warnings or errors. But if i want to spawn the car there is an error called “The player could not be seated in the vehicle”
other add-on cars work fine.
Thank you in advance and have a nice day
Can you provide your resource manifest. Did you register the meta files (if any) in the resource manifest properly?
sure, i used the following __resource.lua but didn´t try using a manifest yet.
resource_manifest_version '77731fab-63ca-442c-a67b-abc70f28dfa5'
files {
'vehicles.meta',
'carvariations.meta',
'carcols.meta',
}
data_file 'VEHICLE_METADATA_FILE' 'vehicles.meta'
data_file 'CARCOLS_FILE' 'carcols.meta'
data_file 'VEHICLE_VARIATION_FILE' 'carvariations.meta'
for the vehicles.meta i copied the original (BUFFALO4 in this case) code from the gamefiles and just changed the vehicle names

for the carcols and carvariations.meta i copied the files from a add-on police car i downloaded and changed the modelName to fit my vehicles.meta.
Hmmm - In your resource.meta, try to comment out the 4 lines corresponding to:
- carcols.meta
and
- carvariations.meta.
Start with 1 file on your resource and see if you get the same result;
Also, people are going to start asking you to leverage fxmanifest.lua, but I’ll say even if you’re not, at LEAST leverage the latest manifest version:
44febabe-d386-4d18-afbe-5e627f4af937
Please give this a try and let us know the results;
Hi,
so with the new manifest version the car finaly spawns… BUT i´m not seated in the car, it falls down on my char and when i try to get in the car my game crashes with following error
this is the coresponding crash dump:
CfxCrashDump_2023_07_28_07_57_06.zip (1.5 MB)
the game crashes with and without the carcols and carvariations metas commented out.
PS: sorry for the irregular responses (dont have a lot of time for modding)
So for everyone having the same issue. The solution is the the vehicles layout inside the vehicles.meta.
I changed it from this
<layout>LAYOUT_STANDARD_BUFFALO4</layout>
to this
<layout>LAYOUT_STANDARD</layout>
and now its working fine
