Open the downloaded ZIP product file and drop the folder in it somewhere in your resources folder. Add your product key (get it here) to the settings.ini
file and add start BigDaddy-CustomPlates
to your server.cfg
.
DO NOT RENAME THE FOLDER.
If you change the name of the folder it will not function correctly so leave the name as it is.
There is a plates.json
file. You can change out all of the fileName
fields with whatever images you want (must be png). In the plates
folder is where you put your plate images. You can use an image more than once if you want by using it on different plate overrides.
DO NOT change the "name" field in that JSON file or you will break the script.
You can change the filename and pattern but the rest should be left alone.
Do not add or take away plates from the JSON file.
The only thing we can change in the game are the plate backgrounds and the pattern of the digits on the plates. We cannot even change the text color so it is what it is.
if you have an older version of vMenu without the new content updates you can use CTRL+PageUp and CTRL+PageDown to swap plate textures while in a vehicle so you can get to and set the plate to the new textures. Alternatively you can update vMenu which now has the new plates or you can use BigDaddy-VehicleMenu which also has the new plates.
