Hello, here again another release. This is still not completely ready and still has some kinks, but I do not want to finish it up tomorrow instead of today. So I can do something else.
This script uses the double checked vehicle.meta information to provide data, otherwise not available through natives for your scripts.
Excerpt from Example
Citizen.Wait(5000) -- ensures the data is loaded have no exception handling at the moment
-- lets build an exclusion list,
-- we do not want to offer vehicles without plates
-- no law enforcement vehicles
-- no turrets
-- no bullet resistant glass
-- and no stuff that is not spawned by cargen
local exjson = exports['mvehiclequery']:GetVehiclesFromFlags("VPT_NONE")
exjson = exports['mvehiclequery']:VehiclesFilterAddFromJSON(exjson, exports['mvehiclequery']:GetVehiclesFromFlags("FLAG_LAW_ENFORCEMENT"))
exjson = exports['mvehiclequery']:VehiclesFilterAddFromJSON(exjson, exports['mvehiclequery']:GetVehiclesFromFlags("TURRET"))
exjson = exports['mvehiclequery']:VehiclesFilterAddFromJSON(exjson, exports['mvehiclequery']:GetVehiclesFromFlags("FLAG_HAS_BULLET_RESISTANT_GLASS"))
exjson = exports['mvehiclequery']:VehiclesFilterAddFromJSON(exjson, exports['mvehiclequery']:GetVehiclesFromFlags("FLAG_DISABLE_THROUGH_WINDSCREEN"))
exjson = exports['mvehiclequery']:VehiclesFilterAddFromJSON(exjson, exports['mvehiclequery']:GetVehiclesFromFlags("FLAG_DONT_SPAWN_IN_CARGEN"))
-- Cann add some more manually, but well, idc at that point. This is a demonstration.
-- just repeating the same stuff over and over again to populate the car menus
local curjson = exports['mvehiclequery']:GetVehiclesFromClass("COMPACT")
-- sanitize the json and remove forbidden vehicles
curjson = exports['mvehiclequery']:VehiclesFilterOutFromJSON(curjson, exjson)
local arr = json.decode(curjson)
for i,v in pairs(arr) do
if exports['mvehiclequery']:GetVehicleMakeName(v) ~= "" then
table.insert(vehshop.menu.compacts.buttons,{
name = GetLabelText(exports['mvehiclequery']:GetVehicleMakeName(v)).." "..GetLabelText(GetDisplayNameFromVehicleModel(v)),
costs = 10000,
description = {},
model = exports['mvehiclequery']:GetVehicleModelName(v)
})
end
end
The example is an excerpt from a badly modified version from the original found here: [Release] Vehicle shop by Arturs
It parses all vehicles and populates the list instead with the vehicles from the json. Which can be found individually here: https://github.com/GHMatti/FiveM-VehicleInfo/tree/master/example/vehshop
How to use the Resource
After loading the resource, you have several exports avialable to use in your resources to query the information you need, but only Client-side.
ModelHash -> Information
-
exports['mvehiclequery']:GetVehicleMakeName(hash)returns the manufacturer/brand name of a vehicle. You can send it throughGetLabelTextto get the localized version of it. -
exports['mvehiclequery']:GetVehicleModelName(hash)gets you back the name of the model, which you cannot access after calling a hash usually, unless you know what it was. -
exports['mvehiclequery']:GetVehicleFlags(hash)returns the flags of a vehicle, which are manifold. Like if it is a law enforcement vehicle, or a vehicle for rich or poor people. -
exports['mvehiclequery']:GetVehiclePlateType(hash)returns the plate type of a vehicle, if the plate is either on the front, the back, on both sides, or on none. -
exports['mvehiclequery']:GetVehicleType(hash)returns the vehicle type of a vehicle, if it is a helicopter, boat or a car
Information -> JSON-Array ModelHash
-
exports['mvehiclequery']:GetVehiclesFromDisplayName(displayName)returns a string containing a json-array containing all vehicle-hashes who share a displayname. -
exports['mvehiclequery']:GetVehiclesFromMakeName(makeName)returns a string containing a json-array containing all vehicle-hashes who are from a certain manufacturer. -
exports['mvehiclequery']:GetVehiclesFromFlags(flag)returns a string containing a json-array containing all vehicle-hashes who have a certain flag set/or partially. -
exports['mvehiclequery']:GetVehiclesFromClass(class)returns a string containing a json-array containing all vehicle-hashes who are from a certain vehicle class. -
exports['mvehiclequery']:GetVehiclesFromType(type)returns a string containing a json-array containing all vehicle-hashes which are of a certain type. -
exports['mvehiclequery']:GetVehiclesFromPlateType(platetype)returns a string containing a json-array containing all vehicle-hashes which have a certain plate-type.
Utility Functions for JSON-Arrays (as strings)
-
exports['mvehiclequery']:VehiclesFilterInFromJSON(jsona, jsonb)returns a json-array which only contains items that are injsonaandjsonb. -
exports['mvehiclequery']:VehiclesFilterOutFromJSON(jsona, jsonb)returns a json-array which only contains items that are injsonaand not injsonb. -
exports['mvehiclequery']:VehiclesFilterAddFromJSON(jsona, jsonb)returns a json-array which only contains items that are injsonaorjsonb.

Changelog
- 20180115: Initial Release
Additionally the raw data can be downloaded and used individually. There are 3 files, which contain the same information, a json file, and xml file and another json file the mvehicledata_simple.json only makes it simpler to find a certain vehicle by having the data contained not in an array, but in dictionary form. The files contain all the vehicles available in FiveM which are also in GTAV, not a single more or less.
Apart from the vehicle.meta data itself which can be gotten through OpenIV, and the packages required to compile it, and make your own data-files easily.
If someone has suggestions for improvements, I am all ears. Apart from the needed delay which I will fix soon™.
