This function replaces the given model in the given model ID with the DFF file passed. This function supports vehicles and objects at the moment.

Note: Due to a bug, when replacing models with built in collisions (i.e. vehicles), the collision may not get replaced correctly. The current work around is to load the dff again and do another replace after a short delay.

Syntax

bool engineReplaceModel ( dff theModel, int modelID )

Required Arguments

  • theModel: The model to replace the given model ID with
  • modelID: The model it to replace the model of

Returns

Returns true if the model was successfully replaced, false if it failed for some reason, ie. the DFF or the model ID is not valid.

dff = engineLoadDFF ( "data/euros.dff", 587 )
engineReplaceModel ( dff, 587 )

Client

Client-Side example for replacing object model, collision and texture with custom ones. 

function ReplaceObject ( )

txd = engineLoadTXD( "MyModel.txd" )
col = engineLoadCOL( "MyModel.col" )
dff = engineLoadDFF( "MyModel.dff", 0 ) --modelid is everytime 0, when you replace no vehicle

engineImportTXD( txd, 1234 )
engineReplaceCOL( col, 1234 )
engineReplaceModel( dff, 1234 )-- replace the model at least

end
