Handling.meta

handling.meta file in GTA V, like in previous versions of the game, controls the physics and animations of vehicles in-game. This file is found found in ..\common\data and can be edited with any text editor.

Parameters

There are 50 parameters in 6 groups, plus additional sub handling data.

Physical Attributes

These seven values represent the vehicle's physical proportions within the game:

handlingName

This is used by the vehicles.meta file to identify the handling line of the vehicle.

Value: Any text string no more than 16 characters. By default, the handlingName consists of uppercase letters and numbers (TURISMO, E109, etc.)

fMass

This is the weight of the vehicle in kilograms. Only used when the vehicle collides with another vehicle or non-static object.

Value: 0.0 - 10000.0 and above.

fInitialDragCoeff

Sets the drag coefficient on the rage physics archetype of the vehicle (proportional to velocity squared). Increase to simulate aerodynamic drag.

This affects the maximum speed of the vehicle. Greater value will lower the maximum speed.

Value: 10 to 120

fDownForceModifier

Sets the amount of downforce applied to the vehicle. Increase this value to increase the grip at high speed.

Value: TBD

fPopUpLightRotation

Overrides the behavior of light_cover bone to allow it to rotate up to the specified angle.

fPercentSubmerged

A percentage of vehicle height in the water before vehicle "floats". So as the vehicle falls into the water, at 85% vehicle height (seemingly the default for road vehicles) it will stop sinking to float for a moment before it sinks (boats excluded).

Value: any percentage expressed as a decimal (eg., 85% = 0.85). An invalid number will cause the vehicle to sink without the driver drowning, eventually teleporting the vehicle to the surface.

vecCentreOfMassOffset

This value shifts the center of gravity in meters from side to side (when in vehicle looking forward).

Value x: < -5.0 to > 5.0. (0.0 means that the center of gravity will be in the center of the vehicle. Positive values move the centre of gravity right.)

Value y: < -5.0 to > 5.0. (0.0 means that the center of gravity will be in the center of the vehicle. Positive values move the centre of gravity forwards.)

Value z: < -5.0 to > 5.0. (0.0 means that the center of gravity will be in the center of the vehicle. Positive values move the centre of gravity up. Changing this value to great negative quantities (E.G. -10 or greater) will cause the vehicle to behave erratically, moving many feet per frame.)

The center of gravity of a vehicle is by default the model coordinate 0,0,0. This means the default center of gravity can be anywhere relative to the model itself(including outside the model). Open the model with OpenIV to view where it is.

vecInertiaMultiplier

This value is resistance to rotation around each axis. Therefore, the x axis affects how quickly the car shifts forward and back under braking and acceleration and how it rotates end over end in the air, the y axis affects how quickly the car shifts from side to side when cornering (or in the air) and the z axis affects how the car rotates around the middle, which manifests in normal driving as how quickly the vehicle appears to react to steering inputs. Recommend keeping the z value above 2.0 unless you want arcade style immediate reaction to steering inputs

Note: Four cars do not respond typically to this value; the police3 (Police Interceptor), Gang Burrito, 190Z and Zion Classic. They need lower values or else they will rotate too slowly.

Note 2: Motorcycles do not use this attribute at all.

Value x: < 0.0 to > 4.0.

Value y: < 0.0 to > 4.0.

Value z: < 0.0 to > 4.0.

Transmission Attributes

These values describe the vehicle's straight line performance. Rate of acceleration is determined by fDriveBiasFront, nInitialDriveGears, fInitialDriveForce, fDriveInertia, and fInitialDriveMaxFlatVel. Rate of deceleration is determined by fBrakeForce and fBrakeBiasFront.

fDriveBiasFront

This value is used to determine whether a vehicle is front, rear, or four wheel drive.

Value: 0.0 is rear wheel drive, 1.0 is front wheel drive, and any value between 0.01 and 0.99 is four wheel drive (0.5 give both front and rear axles equal force, being perfect 4WD.)

nInitialDriveGears

How many forward speeds a transmission contains.

Value: 1 to 8 in versions before 1.0.1604.0. 1 to 10 for 1.0.1604.0 and up. Higher values work, but will exceed the gear ratio array and overwrite other data in the vehicle objects' data.

It is not recommended to have a value higher than 8 here as issues with downshifting can occur if the car's top gear is 9 or higher. The final gear ratio is static and independent of the number of gears (1 to 8). The 6th, and 7th gear ratios are taller than the final gear ratio. This gives any setup with more than 6 gears an awkward downshift as its final gear. (Based on old testing. Might only apply to older versions of the game.)

fInitialDriveForce

This value specifies the drive force of the car, at the wheels.

• fInitialDriveForce = TorqueWheelsNm/WeightKg

Value: 0.01 - 2.0 and above. 1.0 uses drive force calculation unmodified. Values less than 1.0 will in effect give the vehicle less drive force and values greater than 1.0 will produce more drive force. Most cars have between 0.10 and 0.40.

This value is calculated with the vehicle weight, so heavy and light vehicles have an accurate acceleration.

fDriveInertia

Describes how fast an engine will rev. For example an engine with a long stroke crank and heavy flywheel will take longer to redline than an engine with a short stroke and light flywheel.

• Drive inertia formula TBD

Value: 0.01 - 2.0. Default value is 1.0, or no modification of drive intertia. Bigger value = quicker redline)

This value is a max change rate cap for the rpm of the engine, and will not increase your rate of forward acceleration under normal circumstances. values below 0.5 may slow down cars with high acceleration

fClutchChangeRateScaleUpShift

Clutch speed multiplier on up shifts, bigger number = faster shifts. Recommended to not go over 13. A value of 1 = 0.9 seconds to shift gears.

fClutchChangeRateScaleDownShift

Clutch speed multiplier on down shifts, bigger number = faster shifts. Recommended to not go over 13. A value of 1 = 0.9 seconds to shift gears.

fInitialDriveMaxFlatVel

Determines the speed at redline in top gear; Controls the final drive of the vehicle's gearbox. Setting this value does not guarantee the vehicle will reach this speed. Multiply the number in the file by 0.82 to get the speed in mph or multiply by 1.32 to get kph. To find the right value for a given kph figure, kph * 0.75. To convert mph, multiply by 1.22.

• TopSpeedKph = (fInitialDriveMaxFlatVel * 1.2) / 0.9

Value: 0.00 - 500.0 and above.

The top speeds for different gears can be calculated by replacing the 0.9 in the formula with the ratio of the specific gear. GTA V uses a ratio of 0.9 for the top gear by default.

fBrakeForce

Multiplies the game's calculation of deceleration. Bigger number = harder braking

• Brake Force formula TBD

Value: 0.01 - 2.0 and above. 1.0 uses brake force calculation unmodified.

Increasing this value will not increase deceleration rate if the wheels are traction limited. To use all of a vehicles traction for braking fBrakeForce must be higher than fTractionCurveMax / 4 (only tested with cars)

fBrakeBiasFront

This controls the distribution of braking force between the front and rear axles.

Value: 0.0 means the rear axle only receives brake force, 1.0 means the front axle only receives brake force. 0.5 gives both axles equal brake force. A value between 0.01 and 0.49 means the rear axle will receive more brake force than the front and a value between .051 and 0.99 means the front axles will receive more brake force than the rear. In real life, normal vehicles usually have more front braking force than the rear (eg., 0.65). A value above 0.5 does not necessarily mean the front wheels will trigger abs/lock before the rear wheels (It is possible to check this by turning off the abs. see section on strModelFlags).

fHandBrakeForce

Braking power for handbrake. Bigger number = harder braking

fSteeringLock

This value is a multiplier of the game's calculation of the angle a steer wheel will turn while at full turn. Steering lock is directly related to turning radius.

• Steering lock formula TBD

Value: 1 - 90. sample value = 40

This value is directly tied to steering smoothing that happens at high speed and fTractionCurve lateral. fSteeringLock and fTractionCurveLateral is in harmony when fSteeringLock = fTractionCurveLateral * 2. A higher steering lock value will cause the vehicle to either understeer or spin out easily. A low steering lock will cause the vehicle to have fake understeer (stops steering before running out of traction). This can be used to simulate a crude form of Electronic stability control (ESC).

Wheel Traction Attributes

The following attributes describe how the vehicle will behave dynamically, from negotiating corners to acceleration and deceleration. This section has been updated from previous game versions.

fTractionCurveMax

(formerly fTractionMult)

maximum cornering/acceleration coefficient of grip. Effectively the peak grip status before any loss of grip.

fTractionCurveMin

(formerly fTractionLoss)

sliding cornering/acceleration coefficient of grip. Effectively the grip status after loss of grip, e.g. spinning tires, oversteer, understeer.

fTractionCurveLateral

Shape of lateral traction curve (peak traction position in degrees sideways = fTractionCurveLateral / 2). Lower values make the vehicle's grip more responsive but less forgiving to loss of traction. Higher values make the vehicle's grip less responsive but more forgiving to loss of traction. Also known as "slip angle".

fTractionSpringDeltaMax

Max distance of the lateral sidewall travel. Unit: meter. A force will pull the vehicle in the opposite direction of the lateral travel, most noticeable when stopping after a slide. The dynamic effect is a small force pulling the vehicle inwards of a corner, more noticeable as the sliding angle increases.

fLowSpeedTractionLossMult

How much traction is reduced at low speed, 0.0 means normal traction. It affects mainly car burnout (spinning wheels when car doesn't move) when pressing gas. Decreasing value will cause less burnout, less sliding at start. However, the higher value, the more burnout car gets. Default is 1.0. A completely artificial force.

fCamberStiffnesss

How much the vehicle is pushed towards its roll direction. Road camber also affects roll and applied forces.

Values smaller than 0.0 or greater than 1.0 create unrealistic forces.

fTractionBiasFront

Determines the distribution of traction from front to rear.

Value: 0.01 - 0.99. 0.01 = only rear axle has traction. 0.99 = only front axle has traction. 0.5 = both axles have equal traction. Entering a value of 0.0 or 1.0 causes the vehicle to have no traction (the tires actually fail to spawn), while entering a value outside of specified range causes the car to move irrationally whenever the wheels are touching the ground.

fTractionLossMult

How much is traction affected by material grip differences from 1.0. Basically it affects how much grip is changed when driving on asphalt and mud (the higher, the more grip you loose, making car less responsive and prone to sliding).

Suspension Attributes

fSuspensionForce

1 / (Force * NumWheels) = Lower limit for zero force at full extension. Affects how strong suspension is. Can help if car is easily flipped over when turning.

fSuspensionCompDamp

Damping during strut compression. Bigger = stiffer.

fSuspensionReboundDamp

Damping during strut rebound. Bigger = stiffer

fSuspensionUpperLimit

how far can wheels move up from original position

fSuspensionLowerLimit

how far can wheels move down from original position

fSuspensionRaise

The amount that the suspension raises the body off the wheels. Recommend adjusting at second decimal unless vehicle has room to move. ie -0.02 is plenty of drop on an already low car. Too much will show the wheels clipping through or if positive, no suspension joining the body to wheels

fSuspensionBiasFront

Force damping scale front/back. If more wheels at back (e.g. trucks) need front suspension to be stronger. This value determines which suspension is stronger, front or rear. If value is above 0.50 then front is stiffer, when below, rear.

fAntiRollBarForce

The spring constant that is transmitted to the opposite wheel when under compression larger numbers are a larger force. Larger Numbers = less body roll

fAntiRollBarBiasFront

The bias between front and rear for the antiroll bar(0 front, 1 rear)

fRollCentreHeightFront

The roll center height for the front axle, from the bottom of the model (road), in meters.

High values place the roll center closer to the center of mass, reducing body roll. Values placing the roll center higher than the center of mass will induce negative body roll - the "Tyrus Effect".

Low values increase the roll center distance from the center of mass, increasing body roll. Values placing the roll center too far from the center of mass may increase rollover chances.

Since center of mass differs per vehicle, using a visualization tool may help determining a desired amount of body roll.

fRollCentreHeightRear

The roll center height for the rear axle, from the bottom of the model (road), in meters.

High values place the roll center closer to the center of mass, reducing body roll. Values placing the roll center higher than the center of mass will induce negative body roll - the "Tyrus Effect".

Low values increase the roll center distance from the center of mass, increasing body roll. Values placing the roll center too far from the center of mass may increase rollover chances.

Since center of mass differs per vehicle, using a visualization tool may help determining a desired amount of body roll.

Damage Attributes

The following attributes dictate how the vehicle will react to damaging effects.

fCollisionDamageMult

Multiplies the game's calculation of damage to the vehicle through collision, causing gas tank and wheels to catch fire.

Value: 0.0 - 10.0. 0.0 = no damage through collision. 10.0 = Ten times damage through collision.

Higher values make body parts fall off more easily. Also enables engine damage.

fWeaponDamageMult

Multiplies the game's calculation of damage to the vehicle through weapon damage.

Value: 0.0 - 10.0. 0.0 = no damage through weapons. 10.0 = Ten times damage through weapons.

fDeformationDamageMult

Multiplies the game's calculation of deformation-causing damage.

Value: 0.0 - 10.0. 0.0 = no deformation through damage is possible. 10.0 = Ten times deformation-causing damage.

fEngineDamageMult

Multiplies the game's calculation of damage to the engine, causing explosion or engine failure.

Value: 0.0 - 10.0. 0.0 = no damage to the engine. 10.0 = Ten times damage to the engine.

This value seems to respond mostly to impacts directly on the hood, and not as much to front end impacts (particularly with taller vehicles).

fPetrolTankVolume

Amount of petrol that will leak after shooting the vehicle's petrol tank. Also used by some fuel-usage scripts.

fOilVolume

Black smoke time before engine dies?

Miscellaneous Attributes

fSeatOffsetDistX

The distance from the door to the car seat.

Value: Driver > passenger

fSeatOffsetDistY

The distance from the door to the car seat.

Value: Trunk > hood

fSeatOffsetDistZ

The distance from the door to the car seat.

Value: Undercarriage > roof

0x400000	CF_FORCE_SMOOTH_RPM	Smoother revs when in first gear.
0x800000	CF_ALLOW_TURN_ON_SPOT	Allows the vehicle to be rotated left or right while parked on the spot, also known as neutral steering. Intended for tanks/tracked vehicles.
0x1000000	CF_CAN_WHEELIE	Allows the vehicle to perform a handbrake wheelie. Muscle vehicle class is hardcoded to use this flag.
0x2000000	CF_ENABLE_WHEEL_BLOCKER_SIDE_IMPACTS	Makes the wheels much less likely to clip into the ground when the vehicle is tipped over.
0x4000000	CF_FIX_OLD_BUGS	Has multiple uses, intended to fix various handling bugs. Currently-known effects are: — Limits the effects of the HF_TYRES_CAN_CLIP flag by forcing stock tire clipping boundaries on all wheels. — Prevents lowering the vehicle by shooting at its wheels/suspension. This flag is also required in addition to CF_ALLOW_REDUCED_SUSPENSION_FORCE to stance the vehicle through script.
0x8000000	CF_USE_DOWNFORCE_BIAS	Changes the way downforce works, and enables the use of AdvancedData to affect downforce by individual spoilers and front bumper parts. In addition, it nullifies the speed gained from going over curbs.
0x10000000	CF_REDUCE_BODY_ROLL_WITH_SUSPENSION_MODS	Each suspension upgrade reduces body roll and increases grip.
0x20000000	CF_ALLOWS_EXTENDED_MODS	Enables the use of AdvancedData to add new "Hao's Special Works" performance mods affecting engine power and adding turbo stages.
Flag names prefixed with an underscore are unofficial and/or based on guesswork or observations. Official names have been taken from Red Dead Redemption II, which lets go of the HEX system in favor of strings. The flags in that game are identical to ones found in GTA V.

AdvancedData

Advanced Data for the vehicle. Currently it is known to affect three different vehicle mechanics, the wheelies, downforce and HSW performance upgrades, in a different way.
— If the handbrake wheelie advanced flag is enabled (hardcoded to be enabled for all Muscle class vehicles), the AdvancedData will allow defined modparts to control the force multiplier for the wheelie.
— If the downforce bias advanced flag is enabled, the AdvancedData will allow defined modparts to control the downforce multiplier for the vehicle ONLY on the spoiler and front bumper parts.
— If the allows extended mods advanced flag is enabled, the AdvancedData will allow defined modparts to control the power of the HSW Performance Upgrade and the HSW Turbos.

This value can be ignored if one intends on having the parts alter downforce.

Known Effects
Slot	Required Flag	Effect
Any	CF_CAN_WHEELIE	Adjusts the force of the handbrake wheelie.
0	CF_USE_DOWNFORCE_BIAS	Affects downforce.
1
20	CF_ALLOWS_EXTENDED_MODS	Allows to increase or decrease engine power when Turbo is equipped.
22		Allows to increase or decrease engine power.

Index

Index of the mod part. For downforce altering, the index value is overall, and not based on type. Eg. Index value of 50 will affect the 50th (51st, if you start counting from 1) part listed in the modkit. The part at the chosen index must be classified as either a spoiler or a front bumper AND the new downforce mechanics advanced flag must be enabled for the multiplier to have any effect.

For wheelie force altering, the index value is based on type. Eg. if the chosen modpart is at index 20, but it is the second part of a specific class, then the index will be 1 and not 20. Slot value must be correctly defined, and the handbrake wheelie advanced flag must be enabled on the vehicle in order for the multiplier value to have an effect.

Value

The multiplier value.

Flags that adjust the behavior of the special flight feature.

Special (Flight Mode) Flags
HEX	Name	Description
0x1	SF_WORKS_UPSIDE_DOWN	Disables movement of the "misc_c" bone, which is used as a hatch hiding the thrusts. See: Deluxo. Additionally, using the handbrake will fold the extended wings.
0x2	SF_DONT_RETRACT_WHEELS	Does nothing.
0x4	SF_REDUCE_DRAG_WITH_SPEED	Reduces the rate at which the vehicle gains altitude while giving it additional hovering velocity.
0x8	SF_MAINTAIN_HOVER_HEIGHT	Using the handbrake makes the vehicle will gradually hover down to the ground. In addition, the player will not bail from the vehicle when using "exit vehicle" input, instead having the same effect. This seems to only affect bikes/Oppressor Mk II.
0x10	SF_STEER_TOWARDS_VELOCITY	Enables the fStabilityAssist value. Causes the vehicle to 'snap' towards the original direction it was heading in, in the event that the player turns left or right. This makes the vehicle less 'slidy' and easier to control in hover mode.

0x40	SF_LIMIT_FORCE_DELTA	Slightly adjusts the maximum pitch angle of the vehicle.
0x80	SF_FORCE_SPECIAL_FLIGHT_WHEN_DRIVEN	Permanently places the vehicle in hover mode. Hover mode cannot be switched off by any means.
Flag names prefixed with an underscore are unofficial and/or based on guesswork or observations.
