I am new to LSPDFR modding, and I have downloaded a few non-ELS vehicles (because I can't get ELS to work, but that's a different topic).  Most of the vehicles I am downloading are coming with CarCols.meta files. 

 

I am using Albo's Modding DLC pack, and I can't find anywhere to edit the carcols files? 

I can get the car to spawn and look correctly from a general presentation fact.  But the livery, lights, and siren won't work.

 

I have looked on YouTube and tried searching these forums, but all I can find is how they relate to FiveM.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am currently having the same problem with adding police vehicles..

If I remember correctly, that mod template didn't come with support for that file.

 

In content.xml, under the dataFiles section, add this after the entry for vehicles.meta:

<Item>
      <filename>dlc_modding:/common/data/carcols.meta</filename>
      <fileType>CARCOLS_FILE</fileType>
      <overlay value="false" />
      <disabled value="true" />
      <persistent value="false" />
</Item>

And then under the filesToEnable section, add this line after the line for vehicles.meta:

<Item>dlc_modding:/common/data/carcols.meta</Item>

You should then be able to add your meta file and have it loaded by the game.

Where is the content.xml for albo's modding mod. I can't seem to find it Loot. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

First thing you'll see when you open the dlc.rpf in OpenIV.

Ah geez LOL. Ty so much Loot!

Ahh ok, one more question. How will the modding dlc add the carcols? Is it automatic or something?
