How to properly install your car pack.
Last updated
Packing your cars into one resource allows for better optimization of your city. Rather than loading 200 different folders, you can stream all vehicles under one resource folder.
Start by downloading a pre-made template here.
You cannot car pack cars that are encrypted. You can tell if they're encrypted if the folder comes with a .fxap
In the car packs "data" folder, create a new folder with the spawn code of the vehicle.
As you can see in the image below, the spawn name of the car is st185.
Inside the st185 folder is where all the .meta files should be stored.
This keeps everything organized in case you want to edit the handling of any metadata.
In the car packs "stream" folder, create another new folder with the spawn code of the same vehicle as before.
As you can see in the image below, the spawn name of the car is st185.
Inside the st185 folder, within the "stream" folder, is where all the .yft, .ytd & any other streaming files will be stored.
This makes things organized in case you need to edit liveries in the future.
For the fxmanifest, you do not need to specify what to load as I have made it on the template above so it reads all of the .meta in one resource.
To add more cars, follow the same steps.
Create two folders, one in data and one in stream.
Drop all .meta files on your data folder
Drop all .yft, .ytd stream files on your stream folder.
Remember to name the folders the same as your spawn code (the same as the stream .yft file)
Add the cars to your qb-core > shared > vehicles.
Make sure the spawn names match the names found inside of your vehicles.meta or the car will not be able to be stored in the garage or you won't be able to do /admincar.
