[Question] Vehicle names (modded)

123B3n · 2018-05-28T19:22:36.191Z

Hi,

I’m still quite new to this, but I managed to got the hang of pretty much everything when it comes to adding modded cars in-game. I followed a guide here and there about it but I am still having one question related to the subject.

Somehow, I am unable to set the name of the vehicle, so whenever I get the vehicle name I get “CARNOTFOUND”. I assumed it is the vehicle name in which I have to generate a hash from openIV but for some reason that doesn’t help me.

	Citizen.InvokeNative(GetHashKey("ADD_TEXT_ENTRY"), key, value)
end

Citizen.CreateThread(function()
	--UNMARKED
	AddTextEntry('0x7922338B', 'Ford Taurus')
	AddTextEntry('0x8EEC5F1F', 'Ford Explorer')
	AddTextEntry('0xD47E6A42', 'Dodge Charger')
	
	--MARKED
	AddTextEntry('0xA8C68ADD', 'Chevrolet Impala')
	AddTextEntry('0xCEB0D6B1', 'Dodge Charger')
	AddTextEntry('0xDC7E724C', 'Ford Explorer')
	AddTextEntry('0x5CECF327', 'Ford Taurus')
	AddTextEntry('0xF29A1E83', 'Ford Utility')
	AddTextEntry('0xFFBCB8C8', 'Chevrolet Tahoe')
	AddTextEntry('0x0597C47E', 'Ford Crown Victoria')

The has is generated by the name file right, same name that I have to enter into the vehicle.meta file and the rest? or am I wrong about it?

You don’t really need that file in the server for add-ons or any cars really. Also is Ford Taurus the spawn name?

Ford Taurus is the name of the vehicle, like it should state that name if I use a function to get the vehicle name with GetDisplayNameFromVehicleModel but for some reason it doesnt, like the name that I spawn it with and the file name is lspd4 for example.

He is trying to change the name in the bottom right.

@123B3n I know how to do it, but I don’t know if the person who showed me will want me to. I’ll reply back if he says it ok

Thank you, I mean I don’t really care about the right bottom corner of your screen my main issue is that whenever I try to get the name in-game it just stated CARNOTFOUND which is a bit frustrating when u have a garage full of modded cars stating that and you don’t know what car it is xD

So to clarify what the problem was, I somehow managed to forget to close the thread in which it gave me an error on the client side. Once I spotted the issue closing the thread allowed me to get the correct names again. Issue resolved, also it’s now displaying the name correctly in the bottom right of your screen.
