ELS.log

There doesn't appear to be anything out of the ordinary.

Are you talking about: "Parsing file. *A crash before all clear indicates faulty VCF.*"?

That's just a tip about where to look for potential issues if there's an issue parsing the VCF.

Hello, even though I am Russian, and I use Google translator, I would like to ask when I put ELS, I'm stupid in the rage plugin hook the console disappears in the game! In the old version, everything was perfect! Why can it be? Help please, today, 2 times reinstalled GTA 5.

Anyone found a workaround to get the Cinematic camera to work? Still it acts as a Manual tone for me, regardless of what button i assign it to.

Cinematic camera doesn't work on ELS cars, it is bug or feature??? How can I fix that? 

I downloaded this a few days ago. When I opened the installation folder, there was no AdvancedHookV.dll. I'm assuming I need that in order to run this, correct? Was it removed from the download, or is there another way for me to get a hold of it? I've tried searching for a download online, but can't find it. Please help, thanks!

Um.  It should've come with ELS.  Weird.  Here, you can have mine.

AdvancedHookV.dll

It's a "Feature".  Best option is use the R key or go into "Settings > Vehicle General" and change it to another unused key.  I would avoid UIOPJKL because ELS uses ALL of those.

You can also use OEM keys like []\;',./-= and you can find those here.

Hmm. every key i try does the same. It's like ELS "steals" the Cinematic key whatever it is. I wanted to use Middle mouse button for it. Works very well when ELS is not loaded.

Try assigning the MMB as an Alternate key for Cinematic Camera.

Stilll cinematic camera doesn't work. Every key I used does the same - "siren push"

Anyone else having the problem of the AI cars looking like this? The AI cars lights are on, but not flashing. The first pic is of a AI driving around. The other two was in a pursuit of a vehicle but the lights were not flashing. One stayed steady burn and the other only had 1 single blue light on. Any ideas why or a fix for it? Could it be ELS doing it or the models? 

I'm no expert, but it may be the XML files are not installed or configured correctly.

Make sure this line:

    <INTERFACE>
        <LstgActivationType>invert</LstgActivationType>

Is set to Invert and not Manual for AI-driven vehicles.

Also make sure the XML files are named after the YTD files.  "Ambulance.ytd" should have an "Ambulance.xml" file.

XML files belong in %GTA Folder%\ELS\pack_default

I honestly have no idea at this.

Maybe go into your ELS.ini and change "sound_manul" to another key?

If you set "AllowController" to False that will unhook ELS from your controller, but you'll have to activate lights and sirens from your keyboard.

Unless you use something like XPadder to emulate your keyboard and Free My Controller or Who Needs Em to release the buttons from being hooked by the game, you may be stuck with this.

Edited July 6, 20178 yr by Lyniaer

Still no change. Cinematic camera is default on "R" key, "R" has ID 82, but, and this is weird, in ELS.ini I have nothing mapped on "R" key. On non els cars cinematic camera works well.

See below:
 

Is els dead. It hasn't been an update for a while now.?

Is LT Caine still modding?

I really hope an update comes out to add more siren sounds for other vehicles. I can't use siren mastery. It's just not the same

Thank you very much. I thought I had a big issue

I just had a problem start today. I normally have the siren, horn, etc controls through els disabled in the els.ini and use siren mastery instead (e.g. sound_ahorn=none in els.ini) and it worked fine. But today when I spawned an els vehicle to use, it spawned with the vanilla secondary police siren playing and it couldn't be turned off, also, when I drove around with just that siren playing but no lights on traffic didn't react. I brought up the in game control panel and the horn button was active and playing "m2". I reinstalled the els files in the root folder except the .ini at first, and the problem persisted. Then I replaced with the default .ini and it was fine. As far as I know I didn't change anything between the last time I played and when this issue with the siren began, so is there a way for me to disable the els siren control keys without it getting confused and playing a vanilla siren that can't be stopped.

Make sure:

//Setting this to true disables Siren Mastery functionality for vehicles that have an ELS VCF file.
DisableForELSVehicles=false
In the Siren Mastery General Config.

You may experience conflicts using Siren Mastery with an ELS vehicle.  You have been told.  :P

I do have it set to false, and it's been set to false. I don't know of anything that I changed that made this start happening. As a workaround for the time I just set all the els siren controls to my numpad / and it works fine

Is it possible to have a manual siren in ELS like in the below video, watch at 1:16, the manual siren has delay when u press it, it goes from high to low and the more you press it it repeat it self without over riding the previous.

From your video, I notice a couple things wrong that indicate the XML file for your vehicle is corrupt, incompatible with the vehicle or improperly altered.

1) When you activate a stage, it should turn orange while the rest are in gray.  Yours are orange all the time.

    <INTERFACE>
        <LstgActivationType>invert</LstgActivationType>
        <DefaultSirenMode>standby</DefaultSirenMode>
        <InfoPanelHeaderColor>grey</InfoPanelHeaderColor>
        <InfoPanelButtonLightColor>orange</InfoPanelButtonLightColor> (Some may say GREEN and that's fine)
    </INTERFACE>

2) Your WigWags are running but the WW is not lit, also indicating an issue with the XML file for this vehicle.

3) When your lights come on solid, those are "Cruise" lights.  The ELS Panel shows the "CRS" turn orange when you click them on.  Turn your Cruise lights off or go into your XML and edit this line:

    <CRUISE>
        <DisableAtLstg3>true</DisableAtLstg3>  (This needs to say TRUE)
        <UseExtras Extra1="false" Extra2="false" Extra3="false" Extra4="false" />
    </CRUISE>

Bottom line, your XML file for that vehicle is FUBAR.  I would suggest deleting it and adding a fresh XML file from the download source to correct this issue.

When the modeler built your vehicle, they use "Extra 1", "Extra 2" and so on to indicate the different light bars.  This is what ELS picks up on out of the model files in order to instruct them to flash differently.

The XML file you have may have an inadvertent false flag somewhere in these lines:

    <EOVERRIDE>    
        <Extra01 IsElsControlled="true" AllowEnvLight="true" Color="red" OffsetX="-0.70" OffsetY="-0.20" OffsetZ="0.50" />
        <Extra02 IsElsControlled="true" AllowEnvLight="true" Color="red" OffsetX="-0.25" OffsetY="-0.20" OffsetZ="0.50" />
        <Extra03 IsElsControlled="true" AllowEnvLight="true" Color="red" OffsetX="0.25" OffsetY="-0.20" OffsetZ="0.50" />
        <Extra04 IsElsControlled="true" AllowEnvLight="true" Color="red" OffsetX="0.70" OffsetY="-0.20" OffsetZ="0.50" />
        <Extra05 IsElsControlled="true" AllowEnvLight="true" Color="white" OffsetX="-0.70" OffsetY="-0.20" OffsetZ="0.50" />
        <Extra06 IsElsControlled="true" AllowEnvLight="true" Color="white" OffsetX="0.70" OffsetY="-0.20" OffsetZ="0.50" />
        <Extra07 IsElsControlled="true" AllowEnvLight="true" Color="amber" OffsetX="-0.40" OffsetY="-0.80" OffsetZ="0.40" />
        <Extra08 IsElsControlled="true" AllowEnvLight="false" Color="amber" OffsetX="0.00" OffsetY="-0.80" OffsetZ="0.40" />
        <Extra09 IsElsControlled="false" AllowEnvLight="true" Color="amber" OffsetX="0.40" OffsetY="-0.80" OffsetZ="0.40" />
        <Extra10 IsElsControlled="false" />
        <Extra11 IsElsControlled="false" />
        <Extra12 IsElsControlled="true" />
    </EOVERRIDE>

           *Do not copy this code.  The offsets will not be correct for your vehicle.

One of them may be set to false.

Make sure you know what your vehicle addon options are (Like push bars on the front) because you don't want to set those to true; otherwise your push bar will blink in and out of existence as if it were a light.  I would set Extra01 -thru- Extra09 to true and see what happens.

Emergency Lighting System keeps capping my game at 30 FPS and makes me start to lag when running or driving at fast speeds and I'm getting annoyed by it, is there anyway to fix this? Much appreciated
