Hi I need
first of all, I did search for several answers and none of them have worked so far so that is why I am making this post.

The error i get.
error

What is in my __resource.lua.

resource_manifest_version '77731fab-63ca-442c-a67b-abc70f28dfa5'

data_file 'HANDLING_FILE' 'handling.meta'

files {
	'handling.meta',
}

What is in my handling.meta.

Thanks!

Your handling file is incomplete.

3

So what is missing then? Could you tell what we should add?

4

I’m not aware of the file problem, but this error means it’s incomplete.

5

I’m confused. Why are you only trying to replace the vehicle’s handling.meta file?
Does the handling.meta file come from an entire add-on, or are you trying to replace a vanilla vehicle’s handling with this handling.meta file? And, if this handling.meta file originates from an actual add-on, may I see what it is?

6

the handling file is for a replace vehicle.

7

Do you have a link for the replacement vehicle you are installing?
I could convert it into an actual add-on vehicle resource for you.

8

it’s police4 but we want it to be a replace :slight_smile:

Right. I see the necessity of streaming the handling file now.
But, in your screenshot, the console subsequently prints that the handling.meta file was done loading, even with the error printed just before it. Maybe this is how FiveM confirms that the file is parsed, yet still erroneous. :thinking:

Is the snippet of handling.meta that you provided everything that is within the file?
Because if it is, it corroborates what @Dr_Bad said earlier about the file’s incompletion, and the console error itself.

It should contain this header and footer.

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

<CHandlingDataMgr>
  <HandlingData>

  </HandlingData>
</CHandlingDataMgr>

Ah okay I will try this out and let you know if that was the problem or not. Thanks for helping!

Okay so I tried that out the log says this:

But still, I changed things in the handling.meta so it would go faster but it didn’t affect it at all. :frowning:

12

What exactly did you change in the handling.meta file to make it go faster?

13 
<nInitialDriveGears value="8" />
<fInitialDriveForce value="0.60000" />
<fDriveInertia value="1.000000" />
<fClutchChangeRateScaleUpShift value="6.000000" />
<fClutchChangeRateScaleDownShift value="6.000000" />
<fInitialDriveMaxFlatVel value="310.100000" />
<fBrakeForce value="1.050000" />
<fBrakeBiasFront value="0.450000" />
<fHandBrakeForce value="0.500000" />
<fSteeringLock value="40.000000" />
<fTractionCurveMax value="3.700000" />
<fTractionCurveMin value="3.540000" />

This is all i changed.

Have you considered using this?
