Federal Signal SS2000 GTA V Siren Mod 1.0.0

I don't understand the installation instructions... can someone help me??

What part dont you understand?

Right click in an empty space, and the Import OpenFormats

Just right click below the files where its just white.

I don't see a Import OpenFormats... Is it because im using the new OpenIV version

Make sure you have Edit mode on

Ok thanks that fixed it

I made myself new siren tones, but when i imported the tones, and tested out in-game, it seems that the whole vehicle.awc is muted ! i cant even hear any horns ... Does this happen to you ?

Yes. I have no idea what is happening and why its going like that. I guess we will just have to change things. 

It seems like that if you make a siren tone longer than the vanilla tones, it mutes everything ...........

I changed out a simple yelp tone that was half a second longer than yours and it doesn't work. I even tried changing out EMS and FD siren wails and it mutes. This doesn't look promising .... It looks like Rockstar added a track length limit ....

Works perfect for me, great job.

So does it only mute the sirens if its longer than the limit? 

No, it mutes the entire vehicle.awc file. I tried adding a 5 second wail tone track length replacing the 3 sec FIB wail siren, did not work. I tried adding a longer wail tone for ambulance wail, again 3 seconds, to a 6 seconds length track, to no avail. However i was able to successfully replace the ambulance yelp tone with a 0.50 sec longer track than vanilla length. Same for Siren_02. I was also successful at replacing the fire truck wail/yelp tones as it fitted under the vanilla length limit. But for the rest of the fleet, theres a governor on siren length time,

Hopefully we can get around that.. Do you think something like els will come out? where the yelp, wail and other siren tones have their own button to just press instead of holding down e and hoping you get the one you want? 

Thank you very much for this siren! I actually don't mind the default wail, but the priority/phaser was getting annoying, because it was on EVERY emergency vehicle in the game, and now it's different!

I think I found the fix for this! Will help you guys out after I get off of work tomorrow.

Alright, sweet. Add me on steam when you can 

STEAM_0:1:41827347

I managed to have a few custom wails imported, along with other tones, except for FIB, that one won't allow me to add a 4 sec track. What kind of fix are you talking about ? 

I have a problem with this, whenever I replace the audio files (or other files too, not sure) with OpenIV, game redownloads the original files overwriting the modded ones so it doesn't work in-game.

I have OpenIV.asi and ScriptHook installed so that shouldn't be a problem.

I don't know if you can help with this problem but I'd appreciate it if you can!

Have you got this game on steam or from rockstar

Retail CD version.

Might be the problem. Try googling if you can turn auto update off. I have the steam version and it doenst update untill a new one comes out, or you verify game cache

Ive done what the install instructions say, I added that single file by right clicking, but what do I do with the sounds in the vehicles folder??

Everytime I load my game it does a small update too....

Im having issues installing the audio portion, i have the readme open the .oac its tnt the issue the vheicles file has all the.wav files do i just drag the vehicles folder inside of the Resident.rpf or do i have to do something else?

Someone very kindly made an installation tutorial video, which you can view here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_F43hax-r8Q
