[Game modding] Creating custom vehicle does nothing

[Sikro]

Hi guys,

I've tried to do the best of research but I can't figure out why I cannot spawn my vehicle (police mod, downloaded and had only yft and ytd files).

What I did:

1. Create new dlc.rpf according to Guide: https://wiki.rage.mp/index.php?title=Using_DLC_Packs_with_Custom_Textures

2. Insert the content.xml and setup2.xml (see below)

3. Add the ytd and yft files in the right maps

4. Extract the RPF to the client_packages\game_resources\dlcpacks\something map

 

Nothing happens when I create a vehicle with the name "dlc_cops123". No errors nor crashes.

I did manage to do this with an existing .rpf (all compiled already) so I guess it's something with my content.xml or setup2.xml. Any thought?

I spawn the vehicle using where model is the inserted command text:

var veh = mp.vehicles.new(model, new mp.Vector3(player.position.x + 2, player.position.y, player.position.z), {
                    numberPlate: "tt",
                    dimension: player.dimension,
                    color: [
                        [255, 0, 0],
                        [255, 0, 0]
                    ]
                });

Setup2.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<SSetupData>
    <deviceName>dlc_cops123</deviceName>
    <datFile>content.xml</datFile>
