How to affix vehicle addon mods

[DenZeL 6]

Few questions for you

1. What does it mean - "right click the dlc.rpf and 'Save Contents/Export' select the /unpack/ folder we just created."?

2. How to do this - "

Drag and drop any subsequent *.rpf files inside /newrpf/ onto ArchiveFix.exe 

Using OpenIV create a new dlc.rpf file inside /newrpf/ and drag all the afixed files from inside /newrpf/ (make sure you don't copy the new dlc.rpf file) into the dlc.rpf inside OpenIV"?

Drag and drop any files to> file.rpf does't work for me.

1) In OpenIV, click File > Open Folder (Or push Shift + Alt + O). In the Select Folder window that appears, navigate to your /oldrpf/ folder you created with the dlc.rpf file you extracted to it and click Select Folder. In here you should see one Rage Package File, dlc.rpf. Right click this file and click Save Content/Export in the context menu that appears. Next, a folder selection window will appear. Navigate to your created unpack folder and click Select folder. This will extract the contents of dlc.rpf to this folder ready to be signed by ArchiveFix.exe

2) Open your ArchiveFix folder (the folder that contains ArchiveFix.exe). Then, in the unpack folder go through EVERY FOLDER (usually x64 + data) and every .RPF file you see, drag these file ONTO ArchiveFix.exe (oone by one). If you did this correctly, a command prompt window should appear telling you that the archive was fixed after each drag.

3) In OpenIV, click File > Open Folder (Or push Shift + Alt + O) and navigate to your newrpf folder. Making sure you have edit mode enabled (Click Edit Mode in the top right), In this folder right click in the whitespace on the RIGHT SIDE (where your dlc.rpf was in step 1) and click New, and RPF File, calling it dlc.rpf. This will create your new empty.RPF file. To put your files in this, double click your new rpf file and drag the files from your unpack folder into the right side of the window, where your .rpf file normally shows. DO NOT PUT DLC.RPF IN HERE, MAKE SURE THAT FILE IS NOT SELECTED WHEN YOU DRAG FILES INTO HERE! In the example of the rx7cwest addon, the only files in my dlc.rpf at the end of this guide were the Data folder, the x64 folder, a content.xml and a setup2.xml.

Hopefully you have better luck than us!

It seems that regardless of who tries to connect to my server, all get the same 'Loading game models' issue as me. I've tried affixing on a different PC using a different copy of V (warehouse instead of steam) just incase but it still happens. Someone on the Discord also had this issue, but after searching the Discord, the forums and the Russian side of the forums via google translate I couldn't find a resolution for this. Anybody who might've encountered this problem, whether or not you managed to fix it feel free to pm me and perhaps together we can figure a solution for this by sharing our methods.

If you're afixing them correctly, they'll work. Any further than that, you shouldn't be attempting this if you don't understand how modifications work.

I've been modding games for as long as I can remember, actively developing mods for servers I host on Ark, Arma3 and Rust. No need for the snark, this isn't my first rodeo. I'm not the only person to have had this issue, and its certainly not like I haven't done any research or tried other methods since then.

Its alright mate, I tried using the pre-affixed resources from the RageMP devs that contains the Lada + the Shelby GT500 and I get the same problem with them. Looking like either a server side bug or something worse. Thank you for replying, though

Files I used to test against are here: https://cdn.rage.mp/rs/client_packages.zip
