Hello,

I have a model I downloaded ( '?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>> ) and was wondering if anyone can help me change the light bar colors as well as a few of the lights on the front and side. I have read a few tutorials on how to do it but I haven't been able to figure it out. If anyone could help I would appreciate it.

 

Thanks RPILL

I was going to post a topic on the same thing!

Just to clarify, would you like to change the light domes, the lights themselves, or both?

I'm not sure what its like for that particular vehicle since I've never used it but most of the time the glass is mapped to a texture called "emerglights". The photo below is what it looks like. I've highlighted the 2 areas that the glass is *usually* mapped to. One in red and one in yellow. The pod positions on the texture usually correspond to the pods on the truck, this will be trial and error of course so you'll have to figure that out. You export that texture with OpenIv or Spark and open it in photoshop. Erase the color of the pod and fill it in with your desired color but make sure you lower the opacity - otherwise the color will be solid in game and you won't see the ELS lights flash. The amount of opacity is another thing you'll have to play around with, trial and error. **If you edit this and it doesn't work then chances are its mapped to another texture within the WTD, just look for a texture that contains something similar to what I highlighted** Or feel free to post the textures you think it might be in this thread and someone can probably point it out. Hope this helps 

 

I was looking to change both domes and the leds. Here are the files that came with this model. All I am looking to change is some of the red leds to blue in the light bar and a few of the red leds that are in the emis.png.
