"Celebrating our one year anniversary, we've got some more new plates in stock including a special Anniversary plate! Show off your support for the classics with the Yellow San Andreas plate, or impress the president with the Jefferson, C.D. plate. Or are you into sightseeing? In that case, we've got something for the ever-rainy Jefferson, the colorful scenery of Coloverdo, the snowy plains and mountains of Colina, and the endless dairy factories of Meskousin. In addition, decorate your plates with some dashes and arrows! Happy birthday to us, and thank you for the support!"
- Added seven new plates: Colina, Coloverdo, Jefferson, Jefferson C.D., Meskousin, San Andreas (Yellow), Anniversary Plate
- Updated random chance carvariation files with the seven new plates. The chances are:
- 8% for San Andreas (Yellow)
- 4% for Jefferson
- 2% for Colina
- 2% for Coloverdo
- 1% for Jefferson, C.D.
- 1% for Meskousin
- 1% for Anniversary Plate [select vehicles only]
- Added support for extra plate characters.
- The characters are the dash, and the two arrows
- These characters can't by typed in a trainer, you will have to manually edit the vehicle data (for Simple Trainer, edit your saved vehicle's "PText" data in trainer.ini).
- They also don't display in Rockstar Editor - no fix for that since that's how the game saves the clips.
- Added support for IVPack, thanks to _CP_ for permission.
- Added support for Vanillaworks and Vanillaworks Extended, thanks to Boywond and Carrythxd for permission.
- Added support for World of Variety, thanks to Cass for permission.
--- Installation ---
Simply add vehshare.ytd to x64e.rpf/levels/gta5/vehicles/vehicles.rpf (or any patchday folder/dlc.rpf/x64/levels/gta5/vehicles.rpf) and carcols.ymt to update.rpf/x64/data
If you have either modified, there are instructions for manual installation in the readme.
Add objects.txt into "Documents/OpenIV/Strings". If you already have a modified objects.txt file, just copy the contents from the provided file. This is just so that OpenIV will show the names properly instead of hashes.
Alternative plate variants require replacing textures in vehshare.ytd.
Carvariation files all go into dlc_patch OR their DLC packs.
- Go to update.rpf/dlc_patch
- You will have a bunch of DLC folders.
- Open any DLC folder included in either one of "Carvariations" folders in the .rar.
- Go to the same named DLC folder in update.rpf/dlc_patch
- Go to common/data in that folder (update.rpf/dlc_patch/[dlc folder]/common/data)
- Move the modded carvariation file in
- Once all is done, go to update.rpf/common/data
- Replace "extratitleupdatedata.meta" with the one included in the .rar.
- Launch the game, you should have the vehicles spawning with new plates.
carvariations.ymt(!!) goes to the same place as carcols - update.rpf/x64/data - OR replace the file in x64a.rpf/data.
If the required path doesn't exist in dlc_patch, you will have to create it
If you want to replace stuff in multiple DLC packs, all you have to do is go to [dlc pack name]/dlc.rpf/common/data and replace carvariations.meta with the modded ones - as long as the file isn't in dlc_patch already you will see changes.
--- IMPORTANT ---
Currently there is no known way to get the plates to appear in Los Santos Customs. There are trainers (Simple Trainer and Menyoo for example) out there that allow to select added on plates. Another way to get them to spawn is by circulating them in traffic, which is, unfortunately, a quite tedious step. Nothing is stopping you from replacing existing plates, though, if you don't want to go through all the trouble of adding them to traffic and/or don't like using trainers.
To add the plates into traffic you will have to add their names into "Plate Probability" section in carvariations.meta - note that you need to use the correct plate names below;
- Liberty City Plate
- Liberty City Plate 2
- Liberty City Plate 3
- Vice City Plate
- Sprunk Plate
- Patriot Plate
- Shrimps Plate
- SA Lake
- North Birds
- Alderney Plate
- Robada Plate
- Lincoln Plate
- Epsilon Plate
- Miami Plate
- Classic Miami Plate
- Classic Miami Plate 2
- Good Desert
- North Yankton Plate
- South Yankton Plate
- South Birds
- SA Firefighter
- Alamo Plate
- Alamo Plate 2
- Alamo Plate 3
- Cataldo Plate
- Swampland Plate
- Cascadia Plate
- SA Coquettes
- LC Crosswalk
- SA Crosswalk
- SA Arts
- Colina Plate
- Coloverdo Plate
- Jefferson Plate
- Capital Plate
- Meskousin Plate
- SA Yellow
- Anniversary Plate

@Number1GojiFan This is a Stretch E from IVPack, and the lights are tinted because of a modelling error I assume. The car with a Meskousin plate is a Pinnacle, also from IVPack. As for Carcer City plates, I'm working on that.
@Dezzired57 I can't understand what you're trying to say, sorry. I assume English is not your first language, in that case feel free to write a comment in your native language, and I'll try to get someone to translate the comment for me.
@HartmannMk I've been planning those, so, yes, I can make them.September 08, 2017 -

Подскажите пожалуйста, не могу понять как правильно установить данный мод, установил как описано в файле ридми, но при выборе номеров в игре игра крашитсяSeptember 08, 2017 -

I found the installation instructions and overall process to be extremely frustrating, and vaguely confusing, but the mod itself is great, and I really appreciate all the work that must have gone into making it!

Can y0ou please add this addon for openiv installation .oiv to make it easier please

@Dezzired57 Извините за задержку с ответом. Сбои не должны происходить, если все установлено правильно. Попробуйте установить только carcols.meta и vehshare.ytd. Если вы используете другие моды, также могут возникнуть проблемы с совместимостью.
@ThebigJ I will do all the states eventually. As for plates unique to those states, I don't know yet.
@erkinbabaev Thanks!
@xxmaturegamingx @iAesth I'm working on that. It will be included with the next major update.September 23, 2017 -
@futurestoryteller Was there anything in particular that was confusing or hard to understand? I'd like to rewrite the instructions to make them more clearer, but I would need to know which parts need better explanation so that I don't mess up what doesn't need changing. And thanks!

Expand to read the full comment
@WildBrick142 Start by moving up the installation instructions. Anything that's not a game dependent warning should always follow instructions, imo. When you move onto the instructions for the carvariations file, you should treat it as an entirely separate, optional process, in case the user isn't planning to put them into traffic. I know it's more obvious if you read everything else, but it's not entirely obvious, and that's a lot of text anyway. Someone like me who tends to skip to the instructions is not going double check, if they don't already have some idea what the file does, and it could impact their game if they mess it up. In fact it *might* be possible to confuse carcols as only essential to the process of adding plates to traffic, due to interwovenness of the instructions regarding these two processes, and to the following line:
"carvariations.ymt(!!) goes to the same place as carcols - update.rpf/x64/data - OR replace the file in x64a.rpf/data."
^ It also begs the question of whether or not they are required to be in the same place if you have at least two options. - Whether it's worth the association if they aren't.
The inclusion of the carcols data, to be added manually, was probably the easiest part to understand for me, but again, I would move it to right after the option to do so is presented. Instead of at the end of the file. I get that it looks cleaner, but you're saying "You might have to do this instead" "here it is" should logically follow. Or instead say "at the end of the read me" and not just "below." Maybe also instead of saying to paste it "under the Yankton plate" give the exact line of code it should go under. Anyone who is first modding GTA will not know what that means. In fact I'm not entirely sure there's any assumption that users may not be familiar with Open IV.
You need to make it clear in the read me that "simple trainer" is pretty much the only one that can spawn the plates. Especially since the game crashed when I tried to used ENT, and ends at only one extra plate on Menyoo.
You should make a distinction when talking about the "Strings" folder. Which as far as I can tell it is not accessible through Open IV and objects.txt is not a file searchable in the archives. When I did find it, in the Open IV's app folder, nowhere near the simple path you've provided, it was a string of Chinese text. Given that I had installed several .OIV files, being completely unaware of whether any of them might have altered this file, I added the text manually anyway.
I should state that this was not a process of trial and error for me, (except getting the right trainer) I made a lot of assumptions, based on my past experience with Open IV, and other comments in this thread, and they just happened to be correct, or otherwise not game breaking.

I can't say as I know whether anything about the process of adding the plates to traffic could be more confusing than what I've already stated, as I largely skipped over that process in favor of making sure I could get them to work at all without crashing my game - and since it was a little confusing. Now that I know it works I probably will add them to traffic at some point.

@WildBrick142 Hey man, I found another plate that you could add in: https://www.gta5-mods.com/paintjobs/paleto-bay-license-plate#description_tab

Hey @WildBrick142, I installed like the readme says but the game crashes right after I started the game. I agree with @futurestoryteller, the installation is quite hard to understand. But great mod btw :)
October 07, 2017 -
@Dezzired57 Это верно. Вы добавляете туда файл, не нужно ничего заменять.
@iAesth I'm aiming for late October but no promises. It may be literally any time.
@futurestoryteller Thanks! The instructions should hopefully be cleared up next update ^_^
@Number1GojiFan Not sure about that one, to be honest.
@Dydou06 Sorry about that. For the next update I will rewrite the instructions based on futurestoryteller's feedback. OpenIV package will happen as well, so the crashes will hopefully be minimized. And thank you!October 07, 2017 -
Easily one of my favorite mods around, but for some reason not working properly following the most recent update.
