this project is in BETA version, I have not finished rewriting in alphabetical order the .meta files that concern the vehicles of the base game, but I already did it for the .meta of the vehicles which concerns all the DLC, I also created an option to set all vehicles on the mod kit by default (color, windows, engine, brake, transmission..., but all body kits part is disabled) but I have the impression that there are still some problems with this option, If you notice any problems related to the main or optional content let me know so that I can find a solution and fixed a maximum of problems thank you in advance.

When you say "to modify a vehicle and save a lot of space". I'm not sure what the space saving would be. Handling.meta is about 3KB, so say about 3MB for each 1000 cars. Vehicles.meta is 6KB. so all in all lets say 30MB or so for all these small text files for 1000 addons. There is nothing easier than installing a car so I don't see how this mod makes life easier.

@JohnFromGWN I'm sorry I think that if you don't see the use of this is that you haven't really understood how to use it without wanting to offend, it allows you to save space simply because the meta files linked to all the vehicles of the game (Game Base and All DLC) are all reinstalled and effective in the update.rpf archive which takes up much less space than copying each DLC to which the vehicles belong to be able to modify the lines of Code for them.

I finished the rewriting the vehicles.meta but I still have to finish the handling.meta which concerns the cars of the base game (the one that were available at the release of the game in 2013) when I finish I will make an update of the file I think I have worked a lot of elements on this but if you see other things to add or correct do not hesitate to let me know.

@_ANGE92OFF I agree I don't fully understand. I was commenting on storage space saved because these are very small text files and the average user is unlikely to have say 10,000 vehicles for it to have a significant impact. The other point is that DLC cars can be customized individually. I get what you're trying to do but it goes contrary to modding - the idea of customization is not one size fits all. Each car should have its own files and that's exactly what you get with addons. It's actually worse the way Rockstar does it. They tend to use one file for cars, one car for peds (peds.ymt) with hundreds or thousands of lines of text. I prefer small files, much easier to edit even.

@JohnFromGWN Excuse me I use google trad to understand I am French it's not easy, I see what you want in be I created this so that people can replace with ease as many vehicles as possible, to be simple the more vehicles you will replace in your game the more optimal it will be if you replace that 2 or 3 vehicles is better not to use it is more made for 50 , 100 see all vehicles in the game, to save as much space as possible you can create your DLC Custom addon or use the latest patch of the game (in version 1.67 it is the patchday28ng) to replace any vehicle in the game

@JohnFromGWN Since I started modding I try to find out how to optimize files already existing but if you prefer to use adon for your vehicles why did you come here this mod may not suit you

I have almost finished rewriting the files I will upload the new version for tomorrow I think, and for later I would like to try to assign a brand of vehicles to all vehicles that do not have one

will maybe updated tonight

still functional since the last GTA update

sounds interesting :) Thank you

I'll have to try installing your mod
because I have replaced 95% of the vehicles in the game and also addons

I'll write when I test it :)

I added an option to set all vehicles on the mod kit by default. (option is in BETA)

how to access this option?

@allman105 install the OIV file include into the 2nd Folder named "Optional"

@_ANGE92OFF now the game crashes. i deleted my mod folder, the redo everything. intall the oiv, but it still crashed. whats wrong?

@allman105
I don't know, in my opinion you must have forgotten a step in the installation, did you install all the plugins that I put in the description (scripthookv, trainerv, heapadjuster, packfile limit adjuster and custom gameconfig) ?

sorry for the wait, I have several projects but I am currently working on an update of this mod, I added 10 handling lines in the DLC of update 1.68, I still have to rewrite the files in alphabetical order meta regarding 1.68 the same for the optional part

sorry for the wait I uploaded version 1.68 4 days ago but the file is still being verified by the GTA5MODS site

btw the global file has now moved to the Update2.rpf
I used this mod in order to help me create this: https://www.gta5-mods.com/misc/replaced-game-names

@shifuguru hi, thank you for the car names mod it looks very nice, for my part I would like to modify them later to add names like for the handling because at the moment some vehicles use the same name like the dubsta 1 and 2 for example
