Preventing vehicles from spawning through vehicles.meta file

[aymannajim]

I’ve been trying everything lately to disable specific vehicles from spawning using the frequency and maxNum flags in the vehicles.meta file following this post:

Stop certain cars spawning

According to the native reference at https://runtime.fivem.net/doc/natives/#_0x0FC2D89AC25A5814, the native SetVehicleModelIsSuppressed is not confirmed to be working at this time Edit: Alternatively, you could stream a vehicles.meta for the vehicle (police3 in this case) and set the <frequency> and <maxNum> flags to 0.

so I tried making a resource containing two files:

fxmanifest.lua

fx_version 'cerulean'
games { 'rdr3', 'gta5' }

files {
    'vehicles.meta',
}

data_file 'VEHICLE_METADATA_FILE' 'vehicles.meta'

vehicles.meta

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

but nothing seems to work:

IF the vehicles are stationary you would have to get rid of the CarGenerators using codewalker. There are plenty tutorials out there on how to do that. I suggest to use the one from Tobiii as I know that one works. I hope this is what you mean, let me know if that worked

Edit the popgroups.ymt and stream it
Edit the veh rich index

[aymannajim]

there’s like 3 of em, which one should I go with?

[aymannajim]

I think I found it, so do I just remove the ones I don’t want to spawn from this list and then stream this file?

[Renzuzu]

Get the levels/gta5/
and
stream it
sample snippet for fxmanifest

files {

'popgroups.ymt'

}

data_file ‘FIVEM_LOVES_YOU_341B23A2F0E0F131’ ‘popgroups.ymt’

[Renzuzu]

you can remove or replace the model, just be careful of syntax error, or else no vehicles will spawned at all

[aymannajim]

That’s exactly what I figured out and thanks to a topic that I found while researching this matter:

[SOLVED] Different traffic to Serverside - popgroups.ymt

I thought that I share with you what I did. It took me a long time but it works! What I did? At the beginning I was looking for information about the differentiation of traffic but I didn’t find this information. So I discovered a great information about file popgroups.ymt Significant description about popgroups.ymt I found here: I modified popgroups.ymt at my discretion. Then I was looking how to stream this file to serverside. It’s wasn’t difficult. At the page: https://wiki.fivem.ne…

[aymannajim]

do you know why I can’t find the firetruk and ambulance in there?
I would love to remove those from the map.
EDIT: I just noticed a large set of vehicles that normally spawn in GTA don’t exist in the file.
example: lguard, dump, carbonrs, zentorno…

[aymannajim]

dumping

[aymannajim]

well about that…
There is a tuned jester always spawning in here but all the car generators here show the model as 0 so how do I take out the only one that generates the super cars like jester and zentorno?

[aymannajim]

oh problem solved!
It was a scenario not a car generator
