replacing vehicles plate font. MTA doesn't see platecharset texture (using shader_tex_names), so we can't replace it with better font (this font is really saved as .png and it is placed in vehicles.txd
To reproduce
1- Try replace the texture with shader won't work because it's not a world texture, but GTA SA converts the characters from platecharset to world texture "Plate" for each vehicle. or at least that's how i think it works.
Expected behaviour
expected to be able to change "platecharset" and change the fonts and the characters foe other languages and make some cool realistic car plates.
Hey!
Quite an old issue, but I've found the culprit: GTA locks the raster as soon as it's loaded (CCustomCarPlateMgr::Initialise).
This explains why replacing it doesn't affect the displayed charset.
Fixing it should be pretty easy (unlock old raster, relock new raster).
I'll fix it in a few days, unless I forget about it, in which case, please remind me.
Note:
Because GTA hardcoded the charset texture size you must use the same size as GTA does.
Edit:
I think you can't see it in shader_tex_names because it's not on any world object, but I think its loaded all the time (so replacing it should be possible, its just that it has no effect)

( this was an attempt to replace the carplate but can only change the carplate texture.
