I installed some new vehicles listed below, and I've noticed something a bit strange. Whenever, I turn a sharp corner, the car flips onto it's back and rolls down the street. It was pretty funny at first, but it's starting to irritate me. I think it has something to do with the handling files.

 

I have no clue how to manually modify any file, such as the handling file.

 

If anyone has any solution to this problem, help would be much appreciated. I'll link the vehicles below.

That video should help, the handling line should/could be added in the archive. If the mod itself was in an archive such as .zip or .rar you could use the GTA IV vehicle mod installer exe.

Grab one of Sgt Kanyo's handling lines (do search-upper right corner of webpage) and replace the stock handling line located in the games handling.dat file (C:Program Files (x86)SteamSteamAppscommonGrand Theft Auto IV Episodes from Liberty CityEFLCcommondata -for EFLC Steam version).  

 

Good luck,

Thanks for the responses guys, but I'm still a bit confused. Is there anywhere that I can download a handling line that will work for this vehicle? I tried modifying the handling lines following multiple tutorials, and all I did was break my entire game.

I don't know how to write handling lines. As mentioned above, Sgt.Kanyo has some really good ones. You can look in his thread for a specific handling line to use.

There is a tutorial on what each line does/means....just search "handling line tutorial".  Just lower the center or gravity and you'll not flip over...you'll have to check the tutorial to find which line it is.  

 

I usually lower my cars a little bit, so it sits lower and looks cool.  So the handling line tutorial will come in handy when you want to tweak something.

 

EDIT:  here ya go:  '?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>>

May I Suggest you something?

 

http://www.gtainside.com/en/gta4/cars/56096-2013-porsche-911-gt3-991/ go to the link, download a mod. check the readme file and then get the handling line from there. if you want to change the drivetrain awd fwd rwd, then use edit iv, if edit iv is not in english language then select it's english language, then go to handling then change drive train bias or drive bias by respective values between 1.0 which is for front wheel and 0.0 which is for real wheel or 0.5 or awd. it didn't flip the car. not necessary to use the mod only i gave the link of car for handling only.
