Dynamic Lighting System v2.0.0

Discord Server for pre-release versions, bug reporting, and other ways to talk with people interested in DLS!
GitHub Repository for access to DLS's source code.
Youtube Playlist to check some stuff that was done with DLS.

Welcome to Dynamic Lighting System, a full-fledged light control system that allows for in-depth control of the vehicle's lighting system.

REQUIREMENTS

RagePluginHook version .78+
(Recommended) SirenSetting Limit Adjuster

OVERVIEW OF FEATURES

Multiple custom stages for non-ELS vehicles without taking up the vehicle's extras;
Fully setup and customizable siren control with configurable and add-on sirens;
Ability to create numerous additional features like SCAN, Blackout, Steady Burn...;
Easy to set up for new vehicles (without changes to the model itself or the default .meta files);
A lot more...

DO YOU HAVE PROBLEMS WITH DLS?

Read all documentation included with DLS and verify any custom XMLs you made to make sure you haven't made a mistake while editing/creating configurations.
If still giving errors, post it there or on my Discord Server or as an issue on the GitHub repository.

DLS IS OPEN-SOURCE!

DLS is and will always be an open-source project and nothing around it will be behind a paywall.
If you're someone with C# experience or programming experience in general and feel like contributing to DLS the help would be surely appreciated.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

DLS is not compatible with ELS as of release and there are no plans to support them.
All vehicle configuration is set up in an external .xml file and allows for vehicle developers to still share the vehicle as functional non-ELS vehicles with all regular features.
DLS is still in active development and future features are already planned.
Do not post questions as Reviews as I'll not be able to answer it properly that way.

DLSv2 is in active development. With the new update, we are focusing on making Dynamic Lighting System truly dynamic. We have gone away with the hard-coded concept of light stages and predefined features, allowing vehicle developers and enthusiasts to freely develop a vehicle's feature set within DLSv2, while also making their setup easier. One of the major features in DLSv2 is the use of triggers that can activate specific lighting modes automatically, with a negligible perfor

I am planning on making configs for captain14's car packs tonight, would this be something you want me to send you to include in the download for people still getting the hang of making their own (or examples)?

If you're not on the Discord Server I'd suggest joining it. We share a bunch of configuration files and whenever I see some nice ones I attach them to the download. Any and all configs are greatly appreciated!

I will consider joining, until then I am nearly done with the fbi pack and finished the lspd pack, I won't be doing the sheriff pack. I want to rip my eyes out after spending the past 4 hours using livelights though

Can anyone tell me if this will conflict with ELS? Am I able to have both installed?

go into dls.ini and scroll down to the line SirenControlNonDLS=true and set this to false and it will work perfectly in tandem with ELS

I just tried and I'm getting crashes with my ELS cars installed. Once they get taken out it seems to work properly.

So creating/ modeling a car for DLS is it the same as making non els or is there a different way to make DLS work for the car

That is still being worked on, still requires some internal changes to allow for that.

Same as Non-ELS, DLS just allows you to switch between different carcols.

Is that only Police Cruiser 1 have Stage 1 to 3 light patterns? I just use test all the emergency vehicle with your mods and only police Cruiser 1 have 1-3 light patterns. The other vehicles only have Stage 3 light pattern.
