## How to add ___ to CheatMenu

*Be careful about editing 'json' files, especially commas! Check [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON)*

### Clothes
Haven't found any tutorials for this yet. But CheatMenu loads cloths from *CheatMenu\clothes.txd*<br/>
**Name format: body_part$model_name$texture_name**.<br/>

### Player Skins (Recommended)
*If you just want more player skins without much hassel use this*

1. For this you need [modloader](https://github.com/thelink2012/modloader/releases/tag/v0.3.7) installed.
2. Get your skin **dff** & **txd** file and put them inside *modloader\Custom Skins\* directory.
3. Rename your **dff** & **txd** filenames into 8 characters. Having more than 8 characters will crash your game.
4. Important thing to remember is that you can't rename these files while the game is running! If you do, your game will crash.

### Peds + Player Skins
*If you want to add both peds & skin then follow this*

1. Add peds to your game following a tutorial.
2. Then create a image of your ped and put it in *CheatMenu\peds.txd*.
3. The image name should be the model name of the ped.
4. Open this file *CheatMenu\json\ped.json* and add an entry for your ped there. <br/>
   **Format:  "PedModel" : "PedName"**
   
### Vehicles
1. Add vehicles to your game following [this](https://www.mixmods.com.br/2015/12/tutorial-adicionar-carros-sem-substituir.html) tutorial first. (Use translator)
2. Then create an image of your vehicle in and put it in *CheatMenu\vehicles.txd*.
3. The image name should be the model id of the vehicle.

### Vehicle Tunes
1. Add tunes to your game following a [tutorial](https://gtaforums.com/topic/481926-tutorial-how-to-add-tuning-parts/).
2. Then create a image of your tune part and put it in *CheatMenu\components.txd*.

### Vehicle Paintjobs
1. Put your paintjob images *CheatMenu\textures.txd.
2. You can use any name for these images.

### Weapons
1. Add weapons to your game following [this](https://www.mixmods.com.br/2016/05/tutorial-adicionar-armas-sem-substituir.html) tutorial first. (Use translator)
2. Then create an image of your vehicle and put it *CheatMenu\weapons.txd*.
3. The image name should be the weapon id (not model!) of the weapon.
4. Open this file *CheatMenu\json\weapon.json* and add an entry for your weapon there.<br/>
   **Format:  "WeaponID" : "WeaponName"**
