Mods
Learn where to place mods for your server.
Using Mods with alt:V
alt:V has general modding instructions on how to stream files, mlos, ymaps, etc.
After following those general instructions read further below on where to put your mods.
Where to Load Mods?
Add to server.cfg
! WAIT DO NOT EDIT server.cfg
!
Navigate to one of the following files:
config/prod.json
config/devtest.json
config/dev.json
Add the name of your resource and the folder path to the resources
section.
Example:
mods/teslacar
mods/hospital
mods/fastcar
Load Order
In your configuration(s) you should always be loading mods FIRST
. Which means you should append mods before normal athena resources such as core
and webview
.
Ensure you edit configurations in the configs
folder.
Example:
It is highly recommended that if you are actively developing that you leave major MLOs off as it increases load time.
Where to Place Mods
Mods are a bit tricky with alt:V but the alt:V Discord should always be your #1 place to ask for modding support and ask general questions.
ALL MODS SHOULD BE PLACED INSIDE ./resources/mods
. ANYTHING OUTSIDE THIS FOLDER GETS DELETED
This is necessary to ensure a clean build is created for each deployment.
Example
Folder Path
./resources/mods/hospital
Resource Name
mods/hospital
Vehicle Mods
If you are adding vehicle mods you will need to append their vehicle data to src/core/shared/information/vehicles.ts
and add their seat count, type, class, etc.
If you do not add these your vehicle will not function.
Make sure you look at other example vehicles because seat count
may not be what it seems.
