2016 LSPD FPIU 1.2.0

Hi, so I'm not getting multiple liveries ingame, just the explorer_sign_1. How do you correct this? vehicles.meta flags?

Maybe someone could help me.  I installed the model and carvariations where they needed to be, installed Radiance V, and when i went into the game, all LED lights that are supposed to be red and blue (besides the one on the dash) are white.  I tried reinstalling Radiance V (both times with bright) and no change.  Any ideas? (I don't use VisualV)

This is an amazing FPIU :) I only have one problem, for some reason all of the other lights work correctly but the inner edge doesn't light up for some reason??

The only thing that bothers me about the size is that the first person hands don't align with the steering wheel. 

This is going to be fixed once i have the HQ Utility interior for it.

Youre installing it for the sheriff2?

You didn't install the carvariations for using it in a different slot.

You must have incorrectly copied the lines, It is something on your end because i have exactly those lines in my game and i play for hours with no issues. 
The main thing you want to look for is at the beginning and the end of the files <item> and </item>

No for policeold2

I don't know, i would guess you would have to have the correct flags.

So i'm not sure if this counts as a bug but I noticed that there is no gas cap cover/fuel door on the model.

I put it in pranger instead and now it works. But when I see the car in the distance I don't see any lights, only when I'm near the car the lights start shining. I got radiance V but reduced the car.indicator lights, is it a problem related to radiance V or the model's problem?

Eh, its a tiny thing that i neglected, i dont much care about that if im to be honest.

I believe i didnt turn up the LOD emssives up enough. I may go back and fix this but currently im working on making another vehicle.

Could you make more of the lights extras? e.g. the rambar, the middle seat window lights, the lights inside the headlight assembly, and the dash light? I like how well designed all the lights are and want to use some of them in different combos, but it's too many lights to be realistic with all of them on. With the extras listed in the file description you can't turn all of them off. 

How do you edit carvariations.meta?

This Is not possible. I've utilized all 20 siren slots and there is no way to go and add more then that. So the answer would be no, it isn't possible. I wont also go and remove any of the other lights because of how tasking removing just a single light will be. Its not like old ELS where you can just go in and delete all the parts you delete them. The rambar and all its wraparound parts are set up as removable extras. The headlight Ions are in there for Intersection lighting.

I'm not super familiar with modeling, but all I'm asking for is the ability to "turn off" some of the lights. If I understand correctly, what you're saying is that due to the limit on siren slots you can only make a few of them extras? I'm not suggesting to add any more lights, just to make it possible to turn some of them off.

To disable the lights would require them to be separate from the main portion of lights, meaning they need to be set to different sirens. Seeing as how i've used up all the siren slots, it wouldn't be possible

Check to see if the vehicle.meta has VEHICLE_HAS_LIVERY on the flag line.

the model was scaled to the original Gresley. Because of all the collision issues and stuff i had with the base model when i converted it, i wont be scaling it up at all. It doesn't really bug me in the slightest because i don't notice it.

I don't want to beat a dead horse but i just want to make one more comment and maybe a request. I think you have put out a work of art, I really do but I will say that for me the immersion is lessened by the scale not being realistic. The point of the Interceptor Utility is the size and this is one of the reason officers love the vehicle. I driven it around now for a while and the size just feels like it should be a Ford Escape rather than the larger Explorer. So with authenticity in mind would it be possible to scale it up? I  know you said that you reduced the scale to avoid collisions. In order for this vehicle to be nearly perfect this is one area that I believe could be improved. I hoped I stated my case in a  constructive manner and I reiterate that it is a work of art and thanks for the long hours you put into it.

Thats why I'm confused though, because I did edit the car variations though

I really appreciate you putting the comment in such a constructive manner, and more of a suggestion then telling me to do it. A little insight why the model would be hard to scale up with all its lights on it, would be because all the dummies, the things that allow for the doors to open, windows to break, wheels to be centered where they are, and for the handling to work the way it does, would have to be remade or repositioned. 


When i was converting this base model, i ran into an issue where you would be able to walk through the center of the vehicle, and where you would shoot it and bullet impacts would show up, would be a DIRT texture instead of metal. Why this happened, i dont know. I had to remake all colisions and by that time i just decided it was going to stay the way it is. I'm currently going back and trying to drop the file size of the car, and maybe i will see about scaling the vehicle.

All you need to take is the Siren settings which need to be 1, and put it for whatever slot you want to replace.

I replaced this with policeold1 but now I only have the one livery any body know how I could fix this

Hey, awesome vehicle!!!

I have this in slot policet and I have updated the car variations but the 1st person view is too high and i have issues opening the rear doors to put someone in the back plus the vehicle sounds like the van. What files do i need to edit to correct this i.e make it work like sheriff2.

Thanks in advance

Sitting too high is something i can fix and have with the base model. Dealing with replacing the policet i can't provide any support for that, my suggestion would be just copy one of the carvariations from a diff police slot.

If you're having an issue with the carvar for other vehicles. the Use this to make any vehicle act like sheriff2.txt is missing a
