Federal Signal Valor giant compared to car!

[42069 619]

Hi, it has been a while since I have modeled, so I have recently decided to start up again, I have have had an issue with EVI's FS Valor, I have never used it before and I just noticed the issue (that the light bar is a thousand times bigger than the car itself), see for yourself:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is what happens when I try to scale it:

Did you try selecting it and scaling it down in Polygon mode using the Z axis? You're also missing a few textures there.

I know. I did what you said and this is what it looks like now:

I updated my last post, try doing what I said again. I can't remember how to scale them properly either, it's been at-least 3 weeks since I've used Zmod.

Atleast they will see you coming :P

You gotta scale it down more on the Y and X axis

Thanks guys, it's bite size now, still a little bit of adjusting to do but it's fine now

Next time while scaling an object down hold down shift. It scales in proportion :)

That's it! Thanks, that helped me too. I completely forgot about that.

Not a problem, glad I could be of assistance!

One more question, how do I rotate the Valor?

It depends on how you want to rotate it. Add me on Skype and I can help you out.

Well, you have to select it and then Modify-Rotate, but make sure either the X or Y axis are chosen, so that it only rotates up and down or left and right.

 

Also, you could have just put the Valor under the car and you would have a flying car with wings the size of the Rotterdam Tower.

I am new to police modeling and I don't know much about adding light bars.

 

Okay, I got the light bar in-game and the ELS isn't showing, I think it has something to do with the ELS mapping or the extras or that some of the textures didn't make it in-game? I have looked through tutorials and support topics but I still can't figure it out

lol shit, I gotta fix that

If you downloaded the Valor straight from the file from EVI, it was not ELS mapped. You'll have to map the ELS yourself.

 

Here's a nice tutorial, it is not mine. http://gtapolicemods.com/showthread.php?2357-How-to-map-ELS-for-V3-V6

*I hope GPM links are allowed, but I am not sure :s*

I believe that the person I got it from already ELS mapped it. "Z3D might have some of my mapping work done to it already but I don't remember as I haven't touched it in awhile. To use the Z3D it if you want or start from scratch, your choice. All I ask is if you use my mapping that you credit me for it." Thanks, you have been extremely helpful :)

It doesn't appear to be mapped :/

Map it yourself, it's very easy!
