Hello, this is my first post so sorry if it does not provide enough information, back to the point, every time I replace the Sheriff files ( GTA V/ x64e.rpf/ levels/ gta 5/ vehicles.rpf ) using open IV ( GTA 5  of course ) and load up my game, the sheriff is still the old stanier, i have tried  using a different vehicle mod but still get same results, however any other car mod works? its only the sheriff i am having problems with, any help would be much appreciated :)

got it working :D makes it look so much more... Canadian :D replaced every palm tree with Maple trees  

First off, I KNOW the game is set in California, hense the palm trees and the cactus in the desert but I also know alot of people try to make the game look like their hometown, myself included. All the cop car skins from different cities, the uniforms, everything.

For me personally, being from Montréal, all the cars, uniforms, flags, billboards and even the road signs have been modified in my game to reflect that area and subscribers on my youtube channel appreciate the effort I put into all that, but one thing always makes it seem out of context: the trees.

A couple of mods have come out recently adding redwoods and more trees around Harmony, I was wondering if there was any way to replace the palm trees and the cactus with something else to make it look more "northern-ish".

I found the vegetation files in x64i, but would it only be a matter of renaming those files? Like, copy the tree files in the Palm Tree folder and remane it with the palm tree names to make the game think it's a palm tree? 

Has anyone tried this out?
