Yesterday I put together a  Unmarked Crown Vic. for my Clan and I'm having a little problem with the Mirror Lights and rambar Lights. In Zmodeler they look perfectly Ok, but in game they wont light up. Can someone help? (Pictures and Video Below)

 

 

 

 

Those wig-wags are WAY to far from where they should be..

I know in the video you'll see it's where it should be Because thats a newer version.

Probably a dumb question, but they are attached to the other extra's right?

Are they even mapped for ELS?

Take a screenshot of your hierarchy. Expand your 'misc_l' or whatever you've named the dummy helper with all your light extras in it. Also, this is another dumb question, but do you have all the textures of the lights in that 'misc_l' and the models in another dummy helper? That could maybe fix it. It looks to me as though they haven't been put in the hierarchy correctly.

Ok, I think I found it. In your extra_4, you have extra_4_L0 and L1, that's fine (and I think maybe L2 as well) but the Ls are like what you see from a distance. So L0 is next to the car, L1 is slightly far away, and off the top of my head I don't know if L2 exists, but I can see for the mirrors I'm guessing you put L3 and L4 (maybe L2)? That's not the correct thing to do, because they're invalid. Instead of making L3 and L4, put it as extra_4_m_L0 and L1, don't make the mirror textures extra_4_L3 and L4. Does that work? Does that even make any sense?

Yes it makes sense I'll give it a go and tell you the results. Thanks +1

It's simple. attach all the lights to L0 if not it wont work.
