Hello community,

 

I noticed more and more requests on how to fix the liveries on the newly introduced police vehicles. I wrote the FAQ on it and thought maybe it would be nice in the forums as well.

If it's not appreciated, I fully understand. 🙂

Now, let's get to it.

You may have noticed that replace vehicles for the latest police DLC vehicles look inverted, incorrect, total blackout or simply off.

With Patchday mp2023_02 and Patch2023_01 new police vehicles have been introduced to the game. Those vehicles have not only new sirenID and LightID’s, but also a different carvariations.meta.

 

Due to this difference, exchanging them with replacement vehicles can cause them to appear black or have messed up liveries.

The fix for this is rather simple. You can change the sirenID to their default values later on.

 

1. Locate the carvariations.meta for the new police vehicle.
For the police vehicles in Patch2023_01 you can find it in mp2023_02. (Do not replace vehicles in mp2023_02, only edit the carvariations.meta!)
For the police vehicles in Patch2024_01 you can find them in mp2024_01. (Do not replace vehicles in mp2024_01, only edit the carvariations.meta!)

 

2. Make sure Edit Mode is enabled in OpenIV. Right click the carvariations.meta in the given path and press Edit:

 

mods/update/x64/dlcpacks/DLC PACK OF THE VEHICLE/dlc.rpf/common/data

 

 

 

3. Highlight the police vehicle you want to edit. The entire section for a vehicle is referred to as a “slot”. This is what a slot looks like:
The end of the slot is usually identified by the  "“SirenSetting value=”1” ”

4. Once you have highlighted the slot, simply replace it with a vanilla template of a police vehicle by pasting it.
You can get those templates from other cars, or like in this case, from Albo1125’s MODDING DLC. 

 

Once you have replaced the text, press “SAVE” and you’re done.
 

 

 

I hope this helps those who replace the new DLC police vehicles.

Otherwise, enjoy the show. 

 

Thank you and good luck!
