Downloaded new cars and light staging no longer works

[pvarck31 4]

I downloaded a pack of LSPD cars, and a brand new Sheriff's car and since then my light staging doesn't work. Only thing that works is stage 3. These are all ELS cars.

 

I uninstalled and reinstalled the ASI's in Open IV. Still didn't work. I have ELS and pretty sure I have the right files in the ELS folder for the cars. So I'm stumped. 

 

Any help would be much appreciated.

Right around the top of an ELS VCF file you'll see a line  like this <LstgActivationType>auto</LstgActivationType>
Change the word auto to manual and then you will be able to change the light stages individually.
It should look like this <LstgActivationType>manual</LstgActivationType>
If you would rather be able to switch to stage 3 instantly you can keep it set to auto and use Alt+J to go in reverse instead but this would obviously take some getting used to.

Unfortunately it's already set to manual.

Do you have a modified els.asi file?
Also is this with every car or just certain ones if its just certain ones please send me the link to them.

[pvarck31 4]

The link from where I downloaded them?

Those are a few. I can't find the Los Santos pack I downloaded for some reason.

The cars don't seem to be the ones with the issue then.
have you installed a modified els.asi? also have you tried a reinstall of els yet?

[pvarck31 4]

No modified ELS. And I don't recall deleted ELS and then reinstalling it. I place the .xml file in the ELS pack default folder where all the other ones were. Did I maybe mess something up there?

If you left els unmodified that should not be the issue, could you please upload your els.log file?
Also please try reinstalling els.asi

There you go. I hope that works and it's what you need.

ELS.log

I don't see any issues in the els log. All I can think of now is ensure you have all the els files that belong in root there and make sure you have the latest scripthook v installed properly.

Thank you for all your help. When you say the root, do you mean where the .ytd files go? I do have the latest scripthook. When I installed those cars I don't recall ESL files with the packs. I could be wrong. I don't have access to the PC the game is on right now, but I will look into that.

Root folder would be the folder titles GTAV or Grand theft auto V, the place you find scripthook, els and various other plugins. By ELS files I meant your els.asi, els.ini, advancedhookv.dll as well as dinput8.dll, you may want to redownload and replace them all just to be safe because it sounds like you have a corrupt file somewhere because I've never had this problem or seen it.

I figured it out. I re-downloaded ELS, and I made sure all the xml files were in the right place and it worked. Staging is back for all my cars. Thank you for you help.
