So I followed this link http://www.lcpdfr.com/page/tutorials/index.action/_/script-data-file-modification-tutorials/how-to-install-els-v80-and-configure-to-your-own-settings-r86 exactly and my ELS doesn't work AKA the lights on my cars don't light up. Also, I can't accept callouts, and sometimes it'll say "Hold ~ to join pursuit" but when I do, it brings up that command menu (yes I hold down shift). I took phone pics because the PC I play on isn't connected to the internet and Im posting this form my mac. (I take my PC down to my router if I need internet, its a long story).

Those pics show that one light stays permanently on for both cars I've installed so far.  I also took pics of my GTA directory and the ELS files

For ELS, all of the files in that "INSTALLATION FILES" folder need to go in the main GTA IV directory, where LaunchGTAIV.exe is. For LCPDFR, even though LCPDFR says to hold ~ to join pursuit, you need to hold E to join pursuit. I'm not sure why it shows the ~ for some people.

Hi Will, thanks for the response. So you are saying that even though the main INSTALLATION FILES folder is in the GTA directory, I need to physically move each individual file inside the INSTALLATION FILES folder into the GTA directory, essentially leaving the INSTALLATION FILES main folder empty?

Yes, but you don't have to keep the actual INSTALLATION FILES folder.

Ok, so I just remove everything from the INSTALLATION FILES folder and put it with the rest of the directory files, and them delete the empty INSTALLATION FILES folder since it is now obsolete? Also, there are two folders inside the INSTALLATION FILES folder, named "common" and "ELS". Shall I also open those up and remove their contents and place them into the directory as well, or should I just move those folders themselves, along with the rest of the INSTALLATION FILES contents into the directory?

Move those folders as they are with the rest of the files, make sure to 'Merge' and 'Replace' when Windows asks you to.

Read the manual. Should help a lot.

Thanks, it works now!
