Hi dudes! I've finally installed GTA IV on my PC and i'm enjoying LCPDFR and other mods a lot!

So, i want that: to be able to add NEW weapons and skins, but no remplace the originals, just let me choose what weapon use... I found a mod called "55 extra weapons", it seems like it works with the epic Simple Trainer, on "Episodic Weapons" tool... but i guess for this mod i need TLAD&TBoGT. The perfect mod could let me spawn on my hands what gun i need.

 

So, on second lane, i want the same thing but for skins. Really I think it could be done simply with help of the Simple Trainer... on Model Selector option (to change Niko's skin), an option let us to choose a skin by name... so i tried to add to the Ped textures file the files of the skin i wanted, with my own name... but the program (Spark IV) isn't able to add NEW files, just remplace. I found "SWAT Niko" skin, and it really do what i want....... I guess it adds a new suit for up and pants... so i hope somebody knows something about that... Can i add skins for NB or just remplace? Also the guns!

 

And the same for vehicles, well, really i just want it for LCPDFR: Can i spawn new downloaded cars? without remplace the original ones?

 

 

Well, Thanks for read me and for reply!!

Use OpenIV for almost everything, only audio can't do.

There's no way you can add stuff without replacing... (well you could add extra cars, models, etc but LCPDFR won't work with them, and the sirens/lights will not be functional) so you have to replace the original GTA IV stuff. That includes weapons, cars, peds, etc.

 

And installing new cars is fairly easy. It works the same with peds and weapons, except vehicles are in vehicles.img, peds are in componentpeds.img and pedprops.img, and weapons are in weapons.img

 

Here's a tutorial:

Okay i just wanted to know that. I know how to replace the stuff.

Thanks!
