UV mapping is used to map out where textures will go on the vehicle. 

Good to know. Another quick question, how can I make light for headlights you know like how it shines on the road and the look of the lights and when there on and off 

Thanks: josh

so I edited the oracle xs a put a lightbar on it and it looks great! but I don't want to keep the same name "oracle" I want to change it to "oraclec" "c" for "cop" and I've been testing it and I changed the texture file, and the .yft file to "oraclec" but when I load it the game crashes.

I've been trying to figure it out. the block of code down below is what I used to add the vehicle in the "vehicle.meta" file

<modelName>oraclec</modelName>
<txdName>oraclec</txdName>
<handlingId>police</handlingId>
<gameName>Oraclec</gameName>
<vehicleMakeName>POLICE</vehicleMakeName>


And I also renamed the files "oraclec.yft" and "oraclec_hi.yft" and "oraclec.ytd" both texuture and lo and hi model files

My game still crashes though. I got one of my older mods to work sum what but it wasn't dedicated to the police, I would be driving around and AI divers would be driving it. basically the mod that I'm making is a car with a light bar and I want it to be its own vehicle without is taking the main "oracle" vehicle place.

the link below is the extra car slots, instructions on hot to do it, and a YouTube tutorial on it - the only issue and me trying to figure it out and how to rename the vehicle or me putting stuff in the wrong slots. I've watched a tutorial on it and followed the instructions on it.

I've look at all of these and still can't figure it out.

a reply would be greatly appreciated!

uh I dont really know much about added cars sorry

I'm having an issue with headlights also, i couldn't find any of these "dummy" items in the hierarchy but these dummy items also were not found when importing other models that have working headlights.

Thank you for the tutorial video. It was what I was looking for to see how different GTA 5 modded vehicles are to GTA 4 as I use to do it for GTA 4 but haven't tried GTA 5 yet

ok, so i have succesfully gotten my car ingame ,but now the lights dont flash. I know that they SHOULD but I dont think its code error

This doesnt work!! Ive been watching tutorials and none of my files are importing to zmod.I take the model with the files when i click import nothing happens>>>Make a simple video of a z3d file and that it doesnt help you copy other videos on yt cause then this vid is useless in my opinion
