| − | ''This article only describes some of the data files of [[GTA San Andreas]]. For the complete list see the [[DAT|'''DAT''']] article.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Data files''' are most files contain additional game information, usually used in the script and located in the ''...\data\'' folder of [[San Andreas]]' installation directory. Most of them have a <code>.dat</code> extension.

| |
| − | | |
| − | === default.dat ===
| |
| − | The <code>default.dat</code> file is usually located in the <code>...\data\</code> directory of the game. It's location cannot be changed without manipulating the game's memory. It uses the same notation as [[gta.dat|map listing]] files. All information in this file could also be transformed to the <code>gta.dat</code> file, but the file must not be removed, since the game expects it's existence.

| − | === carmods.dat ===
| |
| − | This file decides what mods you can put on your car. Cirtain cars can have things like nitrus and hydrolics. It alsoo decides if your vehicle can use the mod shop. For example, you cant bring in a small plane, but you can bring in an admril (car).

| − | === furnitur.dat ===
| |
| − | This file is actualy unused and can be left blank, but it must not be deleted, since the game tries to parse it. It originally contains information about furniture which was planned to be used for automatically generating different furniture in interiors. However, this file, and the interior models/collision files are not used by the game engine, and other required files are missing.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === shopping.dat ===
| |
| − | This is for everythin that you can buy. For vehicles it tells the game how much a car mod costs and how much it increases a stat like sexyness (thats my example because almost everything alters that). the clothes section of this file has what clothes are where (store) and how much it would cost. Clothes can effect sexyness and respect.
