Custom Reaper

Unapologetic Miscreant · Sunday at 10:10 AM

This is a custom Reaper that was modded to be Carlos gang vehicle.
In order to use it that way then you will need to mod the homies.xtbl.

Here is the entry for Carlos:

Code:

<Homie>
        <Name>Carlos</Name>
        <Display_Name>Carlos</Display_Name>
        <_Editor>
            <Category>Entries</Category>
            </_Editor>
        <Vehicles>
            <Vehicle_Entry>
                <Vehicle>truck_2dr_tow01</Vehicle>
                <Weight>100</Weight>
                </Vehicle_Entry>
            </Vehicles>
        <Available_Foley>cell phone</Available_Foley>
        <Not_Available_Foley>group - recruit denied attempt</Not_Available_Foley>
        <Humans>
            <Human>
                <Character>npc_carlos</Character>
                </Human>
            </Humans>
        <Flags>
            </Flags>
        <Image_name>ui_menu_cell_hom_carlos</Image_name>
        <Persona>SP_CARLOS</Persona>
        </Homie>

The part that needs to be changed is

<Vehicle_Entry>
<Vehicle>truck_2dr_tow01</Vehicle>
<Weight>100</Weight>
</Vehicle_Entry>

It should read:
<Vehicle_Entry>
<Vehicle>SP_HEARSE01</Vehicle>
<Vehicle_Variant>Carlos</Vehicle_Variant>
<Weight>100</Weight>
</Vehicle_Entry>

This will make Carlos drive up in the custom reaper.

It should be noted that Carlos has two entries in the homies file. One is under the name Carlos
the other is under Zombie.

Code:

<Homie>
        <Name>Zombie</Name>
        <Display_Name>Zombie</Display_Name>
        <_Editor>
            <Category>Entries</Category>
            </_Editor>
        <Vehicles>
            <Vehicle_Entry>
                <Vehicle>sp_hearse01</Vehicle>
                <Weight>100</Weight>
                </Vehicle_Entry>
            </Vehicles>
        <Available_Foley>voice - zombie</Available_Foley>
        <Not_Available_Foley>voice - zombie</Not_Available_Foley>
        <Humans>
            <Human>
                <Character>npc_homie_ZombieCarlos</Character>
                </Human>
            </Humans>
        <Flags>
            </Flags>
        <Image_name>ui_menu_cell_hom_zombie</Image_name>
        <Persona>SP_M_ZOMBIE1</Persona>
        </Homie>

The regular Carlos drives a Tow Truck while the zombie Carlos already
drives a Hearse, but it has no variant info.

if you want to give this hearse to the Zombie Carlos then you just need to add the
Variant info line

<Vehicle_Entry>
<Vehicle>sp_hearse01</Vehicle>
<Vehicle_Variant>Carlos</Vehicle_Variant>
<Weight>100</Weight>
</Vehicle_Entry>

Save the file and then compile it and the cvtf file into your patch.

If you just want to add this as a normal car then just add it to a car dealership

Before we begin: I cannot stress strongly enough how important it is the make backups.
Trust me on this one. I have ruined several installs because I was too cocky and thought
that I couldn't make a mistake. That kind of hubris is just asking for trouble.

Q: Where can I find the vehicles for modding?
A: In the 'Common.vpp_pc' file located in the Saints Row 2 game directory.
You can unpack it with ThomasJepp Tools. The files use a uniform naming
convention (IE: car_2dr_muscle03 or suv_4dr_fbi01. There are entries for
bike, car, boat, heli, minivan, special, suv, wagon...
