Almost everytime I try to install a mod, GTA V crashes, either at startup or after going on duty.

 

How do I fix this? It is very annoying!

Thanks,

By making sure your RPH and scripthook are up to date, and by installing the mods you want at the right locations, following the readme files modders kindly provide. If it crashes, that means you're doing something wrong :)

When installing vehicle mods, some readme files may be out of date. If you're installing a vehicle mod, make sure to put it in the most recent update folder (which at this time is Patchday12). You can still place the .meta files wherever you want.

 

When installing scripts and plugins, make sure that scripts go in your scripts folder and plugins go in your plugins folder. If something is a plugin that adds on to LSPDFR, such as Custom Backup or Assorted Callouts, those files have to go into the LSPDFR folder inside of your plugins folder.

Also, regardless if it's standalone or a replacement, if you can't get it to work, try the gameconfig linked in my signature.

This topic has been moved to the appropriate forum. Please post in the correct location in the future.

@Arariel despite using that, nothing I do works

Did you edit the vehicle meta or carvariations? If so, attach those files to your next reply.

Add-on/standalone cars need a meta and carvariations.  You can't just put in the vehicle files and they work. :)  A lot of the standalone cars come with their own vehicle meta and carvar.  If they don't, take the meta and cavar from a similar vehicle.  If it's a police vehicle, take either police, police 2, police 3, or sheriff2 meta and use that.

the carvariations and vehicles meta are IN the DLC rpf just like a normal rockstar update.. I think youre confusing these to replacement cars.. they arent they are "ADD-ON"

DLC structure

all data type files:

 

 

 

 

 

vehicles for use

 

 

 

 

 

any needed vehicle mods

 

 

 

as you can see there are no files for me to change, edit, or place anywhere else.

Thanks, thats very useful and enlightening. Where is it located? I'm not sure if I have the latest game version.

I was talking about where patchday12ng was located, I've found it now.

 

Where would I install this mod? In vehicles.rpf or patchday12ng?
