@Gururparlar, loading .car files from other machines is working fine for me on OSX. Verify that you moved the .car files in Xylon's instructions from /users/USERNAME/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/workshop/Content/285110/1713337685 to /users/USERNAME/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/GearCity/GearCity.app/Contents/Resources/GearCity/SavedCars

You should be moving a bunch of .car files from the one folder to the other.

Finally, if it's one particular vehicle, let Xylon know which one it is, so he can either send it to me or fix it.

On a side note, Xylon, perhaps you should turn this into a premade car mod. I think it's easier for people to use that way. But then again, it's more work to pair it with other mods.

Hello, it says "Car file is not compatible". Do you know how can I fix this? I am using Mac btw
Xylon  [author] 18 Feb, 2022 @ 6:52am 
Have I ever mentioned that Eric is the best?
Eric.B  [developer] 18 Feb, 2022 @ 6:33am 
@hvacjack, I'm not turning on my mac to verify this, but:
1) Subscribe to this mod.
2) Since this isn't a standard mod, the game's Settings Editor will not move it to the game's mod location.
3) Find the SteamLibrary\SteamApps\workshop\content\ folder on your mac. That's where Steam download workshop files.
4) Locate the mod in folders here, I think it might be 285110 (the game's steam id).
5) Follow Xylon's directions and copy the files into the install folder(GearCity.app)/Resources/GearCity/SavedCars folder ( http://wiki.gearcity.info/doku.php?id=troubleshooting:steam_installfolder )
Xylon  [author] 17 Feb, 2022 @ 11:23pm 
Is it different? Sorry I have no clue about mac.
But remember, its not a mod to "install". Just the saved carfiles to download.
hvacjack 17 Feb, 2022 @ 5:35pm 
How to install on a mac please.

Hilarious placeholder.txt note!
ZyZla 2 Jun, 2020 @ 7:52am 
Man, please help as all out as I really love game so much more with your designs in ;)
Xylon  [author] 12 May, 2020 @ 1:09am 
Yeah me too ^^
But I miss the xml, wich is on my old HD.

So there are two possibilities:

1. I transfer all needed datas from my old system to my new one to update this mod
2. I will make a new mod with all the new designs

But I am so lazy these days. :-(
Cant say when I will do it but it will come.
ZyZla 11 May, 2020 @ 10:58pm 
I would love to see more models
theflyinglimo 24 Apr, 2020 @ 12:15pm 
now these are cool!
Eric.B  [developer] 5 Mar, 2020 @ 11:49pm 
@Xylon, German translation could use some help too if you're interested. Right now, it's a bit higher priority than predesigns. But happy for any contributions either way. :)
Xylon  [author] 5 Mar, 2020 @ 11:37pm 
xD Thx for the compliment I guess.
As Eric said most or all of the cars are allready in the game and even a few more.
That reminds me to look at my backup datas. Afew month ago my HD crashed and I bought a new PC. I think I have not sended all my finished designs to you. And I should also update this "Mod".


Eric.B  [developer] 5 Mar, 2020 @ 6:30pm 
@Lost_Faith_in_humanity If I am not mistaken, a few of them are. Xylon regularly submits premade designs to me for the base game. :)
Lost Faith in Humanity 5 Mar, 2020 @ 6:27pm 
@Eric.B this should be added to the game asap.
foxpyt 18 Jun, 2019 @ 11:33pm 
cool
andré 16 Jun, 2019 @ 11:33am 
thank you
Xylon  [author] 31 May, 2019 @ 3:51am 
Thank you, glad you like them.
moonraker65 31 May, 2019 @ 2:52am 
Have now started using these and I must say that they are excellent. Well done. Great work
moonraker65 29 May, 2019 @ 2:00pm 
Yes looked through them and they're very well thought out and looking forward to using them
Xylon  [author] 29 May, 2019 @ 11:47am 
I am glad that I could help you. I hope you like my designs. :BlueTruck:
moonraker65 29 May, 2019 @ 9:06am 
Yes that explains everything. Many thanks. I'm not a new player. Just haven't played for a while and this part of the game has changed sine last played.Now all is clear and I know what to look for
Xylon  [author] 29 May, 2019 @ 7:59am 
Ok I guess you are new and dont know how to use savedcars in general!?

2 Advices:

1. Every saved cardesign is attached to a particular type of car (coupe, pickup, sedan and so on).
2. Every cardesign is based on a body that becomes available on a fixed date.

You can get the info when and for wich cartype a cardesign is available from the name of the carfile. As examble: "Limousine_35erSilverGhost.car" is a cardesign for a limousine and should be available around 1935. When you are now design a limousine in 1935 chose customize instead of predesign and there is a button "Load Vehicle".

I hope this is helpfull.
moonraker65 29 May, 2019 @ 6:07am 
How do I use the saved cars in the game ? I have moved them to the SavedCars folder but how do I actually utilise them please ?
Xylon  [author] 29 May, 2019 @ 5:49am 
Its explained in the description no? Or what is the issue?
moonraker65 29 May, 2019 @ 3:19am 
Forgive me for sounding thick but how do I use these in the game please ?
Eye Aye 11 May, 2019 @ 5:27pm 
I have a luxury marque I am going to make some of those beautiful cars in a year or two.
Xylon  [author] 11 May, 2019 @ 3:25pm 
They are looking nice with every engine, even without. :-D
I am glad you are like them.
Eye Aye 11 May, 2019 @ 1:22pm 
Really nice work, I only wish I could design the motors to go with them.
Thanks for your hard work

du bist ein arsch aber schöne autos
Xylon  [author] 19 Apr, 2019 @ 9:05am 
Ah ok. So thank you both for the kind words.
ARSON FIRE 18 Apr, 2019 @ 8:34pm 
https://www.imcdb.org/m2442560.html it is a TV program and your cars remind me of the beauties from this hit BBC series
daxl101 18 Apr, 2019 @ 8:25pm 
Nice cars. Predesigned cars got me back into this game! I dreaded designing the cars lol. One of my all time favorite games so thanks @Eric.B and @Xylon
Xylon  [author] 18 Apr, 2019 @ 12:16pm 
"by order of the peaky fucking blinders"

What does that mean and what does it have to do with the mod?
ARSON FIRE 17 Apr, 2019 @ 6:35pm 
by order of the peaky fucking blinders
Xylon  [author] 16 Apr, 2019 @ 1:08am 
Yeah but I dont know what isnt properly.
Anyway if it works the way it is and the players can use the designs its fine. As I said I will send you many (or all) of the designs anyway and than they will be in the game as predesigns.
+You can use just one mod at the same time no?
Eric.B  [developer] 15 Apr, 2019 @ 9:04pm 
Looks like you didn't export the mod properly, or the mod didn't rename your .xml files properly. Hence the copy code didn't work properly, and the users can't see the mod from the settings editor.
Xylon  [author] 15 Apr, 2019 @ 3:37pm 
Thank you @TheBear.
I have added instructions to the description.
TheBear 15 Apr, 2019 @ 1:34pm 
nice cars!
santik1997 15 Apr, 2019 @ 7:57am 
Thanks!
Xylon  [author] 15 Apr, 2019 @ 7:55am 
Good Question!
It seems its not a typical mod, its just the carfiles. Maybe I did something wrong, I dont know.
So far the downloaded carfiles are @ D:\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\285110\1713337685
Harddrive depends where your Steam is installed ofc.
There should be the folder "XylonDesigncars1900-1950" with the predesigned Carfiles in it.
I guess you can at them to your folder D:\Steam\steamapps\common\GearCity\GearCity\SavedCars to use them as saved carfiles
or to your folder
D:\Steam\steamapps\common\GearCity\media\PredesignedCars to use them as predesigns.

I recommend to use them in your savedcarsfolder.

I hope that works. Let me know if so, so I can update the moddescription with the instruction.
santik1997 15 Apr, 2019 @ 5:37am 
How to activate this mod? I'm trying to find a mod using VideoSettings.exe, and I can't find it.
Xylon  [author] 15 Apr, 2019 @ 4:22am 
This is my first mod ever so pls tell me if something is not working.
