Sorry for making so many threads, but this one is linked to other problems I've been having.

 

Basically, whenever i install new vehicle mods, the models are always non-existent. I import them, try to view them in game and with Spark, they're not there. The textures are fine, but models are not showing up meaning i'm stuck with the disgusting vanilla police vehicles! All i want is to install a few cars, yet they're always being corrupted somehow!

When you import them do you click save? Cause that's what you're meant to do.

Use something called "GTA 4 Vehicle Mod Installer" It's an auto installer for stuff with GTA.....Make sure you imported the wtd and wft files correctly with SparkIV. I only use SparkIV for custom sirens and models for other scripts.

 

Also, Since its the model problem it could be TOO high of detail. Try turning your settings down in your GTA Graphics settings, Just tamper with it a bit.

 

 

And yes make sure you save after importing the file. Then close SparkIV, Dont just replace it and close it right away

Are you sure that while in spark you open up Vehicle.img other wise it will give you that "models are always non-existent"

UnheardProphet  and CouthInk; Thanks for the advice, but i'm not that novice-like. Many a time I've manually installed vehicles (I do have vehicle mod installer) and it work fine. It's just all of a sudden, now it won't work.

What's weirder, is that this a completely new reinstall. The same problem happened on my other GTA which i uninstalled. I was hoping it would work since i installed it on a new copy, but the same thing happens. Could it be a script?

 

EDIT: Upon installing the vehicles with Gta IV Vehicle Mod Installer, it worked. One vehicle was corrupted and i can't spawn it, but i can just reinstall to fix that.

I mainly use OpenIV, http://openiv.com

It has proven to me to do a hell of a better job importing stuff into gta. WITHOUT the need to be constantly saving. Whatever you do, is saved in realtime.

Try it out and let me know what you think.
