Shocks me that years into this, major amounts of people do not know that the vehicles.meta can be edited so simply. As for the liveries, I really love these, do you know if these liveries are available as a pack for other vehicles? @Gump Great work as always good sir. @getinmybelly0627

The only one made by getinmybelly was the "Twiggs Co. Sheriff" livery that was black and gold and was never made as part of a pack to my knowledge.The Paleto Beach and Sandy Shores livery were made by me and the Sandy Shores PD livery with the little house on it was made by MrOxPlay and it can be found here:

@Gump

My review still stands. It is a beautifully crafted model and I am pleased to have it updated to ELS. But like @SoarHawk stated, I do find it unusual to have Primary and Warning lighting mixed together? It does create an unusual pattern which is hard to synchronise and doesn't let us utilize ELS in its natural way. It also creates a weird view when using cruise lighting for simple code 1 or code 2 scene identification. Is this something that can be re-structured to utilize ELS framework as suggested in the PDF? PRM as 1,2,3,4 and WRN as 5,6? Looking at the lighting on the vehicle, it definitely has all the tools to be built the natural ELS way. Again, just a suggestion for the community to enjoy your beautiful models even more.

@Gump I think I may be having a similar issue. Half of the lightbar seems to be controlled my the primary lighting stage... and the other half is controlled with the warning light stage... it honestly isn't synchronized at all for that reason. Also, there is not VCF for red / blue. Please look into fixing this because these vehicles are amazing I'd love to add them in my game. 

yes having this same issue!

Really? hmm. I'm personally happy to educate/assist anyone who asks. Instead of leaving it at that, can we leave it over there?

Oh god that was a bad joke...

Absolutely it was. It was designed to mimic the comment it was responding too. So, in fact, it was perfect.

im also having a els issue. With the lightbar version. Stage 2 is the right side only. Stage 3 brings on the left side but the patterns dont sync up

Just edited some wording here so it didn't come out rude.  Yes there are new people coming to this site everyday.  I think personally as part of the LSPDFR community it is up to us as the community and most of all the modders in the readme files that are downloaded to give clear and concise instructions of pathways for corrections on mods.  Other than those 2 cents,  Great job Gump.  I will definately add this to my collection.

Having an issue with the window tint.  I am sure its probably an easy fix but I have been at this for hours now.

I have tried replacing the vehicles.meta file that Gump has supplied.   Doesn't matter what slot I have both of these vehicles in, it still shows pure black.  Whether its police, police4,  sheriff, sheriff2   they are all pure black.  Trainer does not help changing tint to none as well.  Trainer does help certain lights with ELS to show that is all.

I am thinking my vehicles.meta is being overwritten somehow.  I did do a auto install of some packs by captain14 and bxbugs123.  I deleted out the dlc.rpf files for those as I do not use those anymore for dlcpacks.  I thought those may have overwritten my vehicles.meta  file.   I checked the diffuseTint its value is 0x00FFFFFF    My pathway is correct for my vehicles.meta file being  mods/update/update.rpf/common/data/levels/gta5/vehicles.meta   I used Gumps meta file.   Is there something that could be overwriting this forcing it to give the black tint?

Apparently everyone is having this issue. I really wish the ELS was better utilized so that the lighting was synchronized. I would love to put this vehicle in my game... but the lighting issues are a deal breaker. I really wish he would fix that.

Its only the lightbar version. And isn't terribly noticable in stage 3 unless you look for it. The slicktop is fine

I'm aware. And you're right it's not noticeable by default in stage 3. However, try changing the pattern or using stage 2 and then you'll notice it without a doubt.

Oh yea for sure. 

Does anyone else have a problem where the dashcam and radar inside the tahoe is extremely bright? Is there a fix for this?

 Try going to .png of the emis and turn the transparency down a good bit!

Still not understanding how to fix the blacked out windows. I have the patrol Tahoe in Sheriff2 slot considering it's sheriff. I have changed the line in vehicles.meta to 0.00FFFFFF in tent. Still no improvement. All of the lights show up, but it is completely black where you can't see anything in first person.

Jesus about time you got off your ass and made an els tahoe model smh,                               ahh hahah nice work as always buddy! That slicktop though, needs MO lights :P

I am unable to get the TA to work on the slicktop. All of the other ELS lighting does work. Any ideas? 

pls also make non-els models for grown-ups not concerned only with the pretty-ness of the lights on our cop cars-

 your good, you can do it!

has anyone made a LAPD/LSPD Skin for these?

Excellent vehicle. Love it. Is there any way to brighten all the blues? They are dim in game compared to most other models...

Hey guys any help would be appreciated. Just installed the slicktop model, only issue I am having is the secondary lights not being visible. I used the supplied vehicles meta file (dragged and dropped). Installed the VCF in the correct place. Still having trouble. Can it be a window tint issue? Thanks!

Hi guys,where do I install the files that is inside lighting folder?

the  red/blue files.

Yes

You have to change the diffuseTint value to this >0x00FFFFFF
