ADDING NEW TUNING PARTS TO GTA SATutorial Version: 2.0.2Last Updated: August 22 2008 Revision: 4 Files Needed:veh_mods.ide shopping.dat american.gxt gta3.img veh_mods.ide Programs Needed:Notepad any IMG editor any GXT editor •[̲̅S̲̅t̲̅e̲̅p̲̅ ̲̅1̲̅] Ok, to start off, you need to know what tuning part you want to add. Is it a spoiler? is it a roof? after knowing what part you want to add, you need to use the following table to determine the name of the dff and txd Spoiler - spl_*_*_* Hood Scoop - bnt_*_*_* Roof Scoop - rf_*_*_* Fog Lights - lgt_*_* Side Skirt - wg_*_*_* Exhaust Tips - exh_*_* Front Bumper(WAA ONLY) - fbmp_*_* Rear Bumper(WAA ONLY) - rbmp_*_* *= any alphabetical letter you wish to use, a maximum of 3 (three) letters can be used with each * (star), no special characters allowed (!@#$%....etc) (to guide you throughout this tutorial i will be adding a spoiler; spl_a_bod_a. all referances to this part will be shown in brackets "( )" ) after you have chosen the appropriate name, its time to move on to the next step. •[̲̅S̲̅t̲̅e̲̅p̲̅ ̲̅2̲̅] Add the .dff and .txd file to your GTA3.IMG archive using any IMG Editor.
•[̲̅S̲̅t̲̅e̲̅p̲̅ ̲̅3̲̅] open veh_mods.ide located in data\maps\veh_mods\veh_mods.ide using notepad and scroll down untill you see the following entries: | Code: |
1191, fbmp_lr_t1, tornado, 100, 4096
1192, rbmp_lr_t1, tornado, 100, 4096
1193, rbmp_lr_t2, tornado, 100, 4096
end
tobj
end
path

add a new line under "1193, rbmp_lr_t2, tornado, 100, 4096" and a new entry, it should be shown in the following format:
| Code: |
next ide entry (1194), model name (spl_a_bod_a), txd name [vehicle.txd can be used, just remove the ".txd" from the entry] (spl_a_bod_a), draw distance [i recomend you copy it from a similar part] (70), unknown flag system [this is yet unknown, so we recomend you copy one from a similar part] (0)
