Hi all, I tried creating a file with some modified steering racks so that I would stop losing my tweaks to updates/re-installs, but I can't seem to get them to show up in the parts selector. The "mod" shows up in my mods list, but that's it. Could someone please let me know what I am doing wrong? Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time!
Change the file names as well as the part names to make sure that they do not overwrite the official ones.
Made the v lowercase. Miramar_steering doesn't overwrite anything, miramar racks are in miramar_suspension_F.jbeam. and the "_wide" is a slot in the official jbeam for the widebody miramar, I took that straight from their steering rack setup in the official suspension jbeam. Still not working at all, no etki or coupe racks appeared.
No worries, I appreciate the help. I'll try changing it anyways to see, but I would think the other racks would work even if those 2 didn't, right? --- Post updated --- Actually, I remembered incorrectly, the "_wide" slot is in the official miramar suspension jbeam... so that does need to be there to work on the widebody. I am stumped, I'm comparing my coupe rack to CJD's and they look nearly identical, I don't see why it wouldn't work, unless the triangles are my problem for some reason, but those are in the official jbeam as well, so idk
My tip is instead of staring yourself blind on the code, try to change stuff around until you see some effect. 1. make sure the Jbeams are in a location which the game actually read 2. try some different names on files and parts I've had a similar problem before where the part name was actually the culprit. try to not have "coupe_steering" in the name at all for example.
I copy/pasted the code directly into the official coupe_suspension_F.jbeam and the rack works flawlessly. It has to be something with the way it's packed. I only went with that because CJD had a CJD_coupe_steering so I thought I'd copy that naming scheme and just change CJD to Projekt. --- Post updated --- Also, the jbeams are in a zip in the mods folder. zip>vehicles>coupe>projektcoupe_steering.jbeam (I renamed the files as suggested) It shows up in my mods list as enabled, but the racks themselves still don't.
