Vehicle Installation

[tboes 0]

So I have been having issues with figuring out exactly where/how to determine which vehicles goes in which patchday file and etc. I have been looking all over the internet for a fix but I cannot find a clear guide on this topic. If someone could please link me to a website or tell me information regarding this topic that would be very helpful

I am not sure if someone will disagree with me but me personally will always put every vehicle I install in my latest patchday that has a vehicles folder (patchday13 for me, may be different for you). I also dont usually pay attention to what patchday they say in their readmes because it is just a lot of unnecessary work in my opinion to have all these different vehicles in different folders when i can have them all in one folder.

What will always work is doing this:

 

Putting all car files first in: GTA V > mods > x64e.rpf > levels > gta5 > vehicles.rpf

 

Then, manually going through each patchday and finding sheriff, sheriff2, police, police2, ect.

This takes a long time but it ensures that ALL files are copied over with the ones you want

 

Files like police2 are not always in the latest patchday for me at least

 

This ensures that every car you want will be in game when you play

... or just put them in the latest patchday which will override all of that.

It doesn't matter if a certain car you're trying to overwrite is in the latest patchday.  The latest patchday folder will always overwrite any other instances of that vehicle anywhere else in the directory.  There's no need to do all this extra work you're doing, just put everything in the latest patchday whether it's already there or not.
