Using Car Skins

[Ranger]

OK, i recently downloaded a 1969 Camaro Yenko to replace the ugly Sabre Turbo. When i installed it, i was kicked off MTA saying ''suspected trainer usage''. then when i opened it back up it says ''you are using a modded version of MTA''. Does this mean i cant use that skin? This should be allowed. It is in no form of cheating. It is the users decision and especailly the ones who actually pay for their game..

[CoZ]

it isnt allowed by mta

however - if you change only the SKIN and do not not change the HANDLING it will work

if the handling gets changed you ARE cheating

i've never seen a car that drives slower after installing a mod

[Ranger]

ive had to uninstall vc/mta and reinstall so many times. are you sure this will work? i didnt even know you could change handleing. i just want a different skin.

ok, would carcols matter? because i just added it..and it still

says i am running a modified version of MTA.

You can use carmods for both San Andreas and Vice City. But you can't use them in MTA. It should work if you don't change anything in the handling file as previously stated. Replace only the .txd and .dff files.

MTA:SA Deathmatch now supports the in-game car mods such as exhausts, spoilers, nitrous, hydraulics, etc.

This feature will be allowed however.

that is all i installed with IMGtool.exe.

i opened gta3.img and hit F2 to find

sabretur.txd and sabretur.dff. i extracted

them to back them up. erased then re-added.

and mta still says '' you are using a modded version

of mta, please re install..''

[Ranger]

am i just supposed to rightclick and ''replace''?

but if i do that, it says the replaced file is too big..

please help me!!!

[Sprinter]

I think the files have to be the same size or smaller in order to work with MTA.

Just delete the original and then import your own and it'll work fine.

[Ranger]

Thats exactly what i do. Should i use another tool besides IMGTool?

I hate that the fact that u guys say it works, when it doesnt for me.

I have to be doing something wrong. Sometimes when i start IMGTool,

it crashes. Would that be a problem? But yes, all i do is find it, delete, add.

EDIT: ops sry, didn't see he meant Vice City
