BrakeLights+ 1.0.6

(13 reviews)

legacy

Simple ScriptHookV script that adds various functions relating to vehicle lighting. Currently it adds 2 potential functions, idle brake lights with a blackout mode and turn signals that have controller support. More may be added in the future.

NOTE: Made an error in which .ini I included in the download so it isn't set to default bindings! Be sure to check the ini file for current bindings.

DEFAULT BINDINGS - As of v1.0.3 some of these may be changed! (Indicated by a * on this list)

Brake Lights:

Controller Controls;

Right Bumper* - Toggle On/Off.
DpadLeft - If Blackout mode is on, pressing this will disable it.

Keyboard Controls;

Backslash(\)* - Toggle On/Off.
J / K / L - If blackout mode is on, pressing any of these will disable it.

Turn Signals:

Controller Controls;

X* - Turn Signal Modifier Key
Left Bumper* - Left Turn Signal Toggle
Right Bumper* - Right Turn Signal Toggle

A* - Hazards Modifier Key
Left Bumper* - Hazards Toggle

Keyboard Controls;

Shift* - Turn Signal Modifier Key
Q* - Left Turn Signal Toggle
E* - Right Turn Signal Toggle

Control* - Hazards Modifier Key
Q* - Hazards Toggle

Requirements;

ScriptHookV - http://www.dev-c.com/gtav/scripthookv

Installation;

Drag and drop BrakeLightsPlus.asi and BrakeLightsPlus.ini into root GTA 5 folder.

Known Issues;

BrakeLights: If you press the brakelights blackout key while emergency lights are on, it will still toggle brake lights. This will automatically resolve itself when you change emergency lights stage or turn them off.
BrakeLights: Any other scripts that add the brake lights being on at idle seem to break this (As in it will have no effect and brake lights will be on). Not sure of a way around it beyond disabling the brake light function / removing the script.
Turn Signals: If you have no controller modifier key for indicators and blackout for taillights is the same button as a turn signal, turn signal will not work.
Turn Signals: In an ELS Enabled vehicle, if you turn on the right turn signal and your ELS blackout bind is the same as the turn signal, it will activate ELS' blackout mode.

What's New in Version 1.0.6

Released August 12, 20178 yr

Version 1.0.6[BETA]

Added handbrake enabling brake lights functionality (Thanks Beh443 for the suggestion!).
Added setting to enable or disable blacking out turn signals.

Version 1.0.5 [BETA]

Added support for analog controller buttons (Joystick directions and triggers etc).
Added modifier key for blackout mode for brake lights in case you want the added functionality.
Added Hazard light support.
More code refactoring.
Added more traditional controller binding support from ini file, can now use standard button names instead internal index values.
Actually fixed the bug where setting the turn signal modifier key to none would still require you to hold down a button to turn it off.

NOTE FOR 1.0.5: I am still trying to find a way to work around keybinds conflicting. Doesn't seem to be anyway to disable something like the police computer so it may not be something that is fixable. Having the ability to use something like analog stick directions it gives you solutions to non-conflicting keybinds... but if you know of a way to temporarily disable the police computer feel free to contact me and we can discuss it further.

Which buttons are these? Right shoulder thumbpad buttons?

[Edit] I see the problem. In your file description you list X as the turn signal modifier on controller. By default, you set it as LeftShoulder.

Oh crap, means I uploaded my personal one and not the one I had in my dev folder. My bad!

My only suggestion: The brake lights should go on the moment you let go of the gas.

Why should they do that? Why wouldn't they just come on when you brake like they're suppose to because they're brake lights?

I would love to see this mod in action, though from my experience I just haven't seen this working in my game. I don't think I am missing anything. I meet the requirements. It is as if it hasn't loaded, since I see no functionality from it in my game. Not even the brake lights come on.

Because most of the time I "brake" by letting go of the gas in GTAV. The braking system is shit in the game.

@sr7066 Still a great feature as I already said a few months ago. But now I have a small problem. When I turn my lights (ELS) to stage 3, either the left rear or the right rear tail light goes off. But not all the time. And here is the weird thing. After a while both tail lights work again without pressing any key. Is this issue caused by me?

Not 100% sure, I don't currently have a working LSPDFR install so can't test but will get it setup hopefully this weekend and see if I can find if I can replicate and fix it

OK so finally got up and running, and I haven't been able to have that issue happen on any model that I tried. What model are you using by chance?

I remember I had something like that happen a while ago (Using a CVPI only 1 of the taillights would ever do the wigwag) but don't recall if I ever fixed it. But as far as I can tell it's not an issue with BL+ (Which makes sense as all this is doing is activating lights that're registered as brakelights for the vehicle you're in)

These are the mods where I've experienced this weird issue. I do have more police vehicles but I didn't tested them yet.

Tested both models with BL+ installed and didn't notice any issues. The CVPI seems to not have wigwag taillights and both brakelights worked for me, and the FPIU had functioning wigwags aswell as both brakelights.

Best bet would be to ensure you have correct ELS files installed? Beyond that really not sure.

Thanks for the trouble. I'll reinstall ELS and see what happens. Anyway, I hope I didn't cast a poor light on your mod. I like it. It's a must have for lspdfr!

Don't worry about that! Sorry I could help you get it fixed, if redoing ELS doesn't work I'd definitely suggest throwing a post in the support section. A lot of great people that have much more experience with fixing stuff than I do.
