*VIDEO PREVIEW AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE*

 

Welcome and thank you for taking a look at my first textures, as well as my first upload to LCPDFR! I hope you will enjoy the skins and I really look forward to hearing your feedback which will help me hone in on the perfect result. One thing to note - This is still a work in progress, as I intend to continue growing this pack to include a variety of other vehicles in the LSPDFR community.

 

 

This pack includes textures that are compatible with at least four different 2011 CVPI models and one FPIU model currently in use in LSPDFR including:

ELS

  • 2011 CVPI - Bxbuggs123 
  • 2011 CVPI - ablaze 
  • 2011 CVPI - thegreathah 
  • 2016 FPIU - TheHurk 

NON-ELS

  • 2011 CVPI - Captain14 


There may be more, and I will update this list as I find them.

PREVIEW

 

 

*Future Updates*

- - - New Vehicles:  - - - 

>2012 Chevrolet Caprices PPV

- - - Possible? (Depends on interest) - - - 

>2014 and 2016 Dodge Charger (PPB doesn't use chargers right now)

>2014 BMW R 1200R

 

PPB doesn't have a wide variety of vehicles right now. The CVPI is being phased out for the FPIU and Chevy Caprice. They also have motorcycles with rather basic skins, but I will add them for a more thorough experience. If you have suggestions on other necessary vehicles, textures or some other agencies, please let me know in the comments below, private message or comment on youtube :)

If you have any difficulty installing these, be sure to read the README first. I went into more detail than probably necessary for anyone who has used a texture before. If this doesn't solve the problem, feel free to send a message or comment and I'll do what I can to help :)  Also, if you find an issue with the file or textures, please contact me before immediately giving the files a poor rating. I will do my best to make it right.

I commented on a photo you posted on the gallery too. Once thing I've noticed rarely anyone gets right is PPB's color. It's more blue than people think. It's hard to see in pictures, because it really does look purple in most dimly lit photos. It's closer to a dark navy blue. Your color is a bit too purple (ironically, similar to the picture I posted below). Also, if you're really going for PPB accuracy, the font of "PORTLAND POLICE" could be a little thicker and bigger. The font is close enough. Supervisor isn't in a script, it's just regular font, same as the police font. The dedicated to serve parts should be a little smaller as well. The rose is a good size, but generally should be to one side of the door, not in the middle (which I think you did, but is a little hard to tell from your screenshots). Also, be aware of your text placing, on the doors, but particularly on the trunk looks a little awkward, especially the Los Santos version. Hopefully this helps to improve your skins. It's a good start!

Thank you Mikfiticus for the feedback. I agree completely that the deep blue they use has been something that has proven to be difficult throughout the community. The picture you linked was one I used to compare, but I realize that in person it does look a little different. I find it odd as in the RGB, I have Red and Green at "0" and blue at 30, not sure where the purple comes from, unless the lighting in GTA maybe brings that out? I will continue to work on it for sure though! 

 

I will need to upload/update a couple screenshots as I continued to make small adjustments leading up to the moment up uploading to lcpdfr. The closest font I was able to find was Arial Black, with some stretching of the text to thicken it. If there is a better font for PPB I'd be very interested in what that might be. I tried searching for the exact one used, but no luck there. I can also make the change to Supervisor pretty easily.

 

I did adjust the Sworn/Dedicated slightly larger to make it readable. I can re-evaluate and see if I can make some improvement on that.

 

The Los Santos trunk was something I adjusted after the screenshots, as I realized it was cutting over the Ford logo. 

 

The rose should be all on the front doors. I'll bring up the pdn files and verify that though.

 

Thanks for comment here and on the gallery - I hadn't seen that post until you mentioned it here. I'm glad you think it's a good start. It's definitely a new experience.
