Hello everyone, 

 

I was recripting my game so I can have more cars than the game alows. I created all the files and edited all the files that needed to be edited. I got the secondary vehicle.img, handling and vehicle.dat working. Now I can actually have unlimited number of cars in the game. With all the sounds and lights working and everything. As well got the cars to spawn with their own names instead of the default names like the normal vehicle.img has. Each car will have it's own custom name in game. But I stumbled upon a problem that is only a problem for one thing. Police Cars. 

 

Issue:

The issue with this is the ELS doesn't work. I tried scripting a config file in the ELS folder for the cars. But it seems to only work for the original vehicle models and not the secondary models. How do I get ELS to work for the new models in the secondary vehicle.img file.

I think it might be the ASI files but I am not sure.

 

Is their anyway to make ELS 8 connect to the second vehicle.img file models to make the ELS work.

 

I do not want to release this until I can get ELS to work. So people can have more ELS cars as well non-ELS cars.  After I get ELS to work I will publish my files letting everyone have unlimited number of cars in game.  

Please let me know if you know how to fix this issue.

 

Many Thanks,

 

Hepster.

Moving to GTA IV Support Requests as this isn't a topic about developing mods using the LCPDFR 1.0 API, which is what the LCPDFR Development forum is for.

ELS only works with a fixed set of cars: everything in EFLC vanilla (I think, might be IV vanilla plus police3, police4, policeb, but I think it's EFLC vanilla), plus emerg1 to emerg7.

By the way, to reduce confusion: "Scripting" in the GTA modding community tends to refer exclusively to programming; config file editing isn't typically called scripting.

Thank you for the reply. Basically I am screwed unless I attempt to code my own version of ELS. Scripting is typing out code of any kind. Doesn't madder if it's editing codec or creating codec. I had to add my own scripting into the original game files to make it work.
