Help on car spawning?

[Stackz Gambino]

Does anybody know what determines how much a car spawns on GTA San Andreas? For example, you could play San Andreas for hours and never see a "Euros", because the Euros is a special car (though I'm not exactly sure why) that won't just spawn anywhere. Instead it resides in Los Venturas under the hotel waiting to be stolen. I have a couple of downloaded cars that only I want to drive, because I hate to see every driver I pass in the same car that I have whenever I steal one, does anybody know how I can do this?

You can either use the car spawner (http://www.gtagaming.com/pafiledb.php?action=file&id=1056) each time you play, which allows you to spawn cars by searching then clicking. Or, if you mean have preset locations that you code into the main.scm file, view this tutorial (http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=1951 43).

Okay, I don't think you understand what I'm asking. What I want to do is make my car the only one in the game. What I was saying about the Euros was, I could get in the Euros drive around for hours and not see another one being driven like it by the other civilians in the game, but with any other car, like the stallion, if I get in it, all of a sudden everybody I see is driving a stallion. In other words, how do I make my (downloaded) cars more exclusive like the Euros?

I don't know what mod you have, but here is the default Euros line in vehicles.ide:

587, euros, euros, car, EUROS, EUROS, null, richfamily, 10, 0, 0, -1, 0.7, 0.7, 0

You see the number 10? That's its "frequency," which means how much it appears. You'll see that this number differs for a lot of cars. Lowering it should make it so that you don't see too many driving around. Try making it 1.

Uhhh, it didn't work. Thanks anyway. Any other ideas?

What is the mod that you are using for your Euros?

my original vehicles.ide line for the euros is this:

"587, euros, euros, car, EUROS, EUROS, null, richfamily, 10, 0, 0, -1, 0.7, 0.7, 0"

I replaced it with a corvette now the line is this :

"587, euros, euros, car, EUROS, EUROS, null, richfamily, 10, 0, 0, 0, 0.72, 0.72, 0"

Whenever I get in the Corvette, I never see another one being driven in the game, just how I like it. Now I want to give those properties to other cars, and I tried to copy the Euros line to other cars but it doesn't work. That's where the problem starts.
