I had a poll in an old topic about what the community would like released and the results were Law Enforcement vehicles, more specifically a Bearcat.

 

After a long wait, it is finally ready for release! But don't worry, it's not the end. I will still continue to add unique features, bug fix, and create other versions.

 

Lenco Variation (RELEASED)

 

 

Work in Progress Versions in spoiler

Spoiler

v0.9

• Created proper LODs (L0-L3) for all of the important objects
• Added the vanilla grill and rear lights (Made the rear lights slightly larger)

• L0 near completion, proper LODs (L1, L2, etc.) will be created before release.
• Finally got it in-game!

v0.2

 

 

 

*Since so many people have followed this thread, I have chose to take out the other cars, and devote this thread to the Bearcat, so that everyone that is following this thread does not get notifications about other cars they probably don't want to see.

Thanks! And I'll be testing out if I can get six guys in the back instead of having some of them hang on to the sides.

Looks great! Keep up ;)

Work is still being done. The changes aren't instantly noticeable but I've spent tons of time working the inside and small details. The interior and doors are now finished and I'm finishing up the exterior and putting those finishing touches.

It's now mapped and the template is in the spoiler below so that anyone can make textures for it and have them ready when it's released.

(I also added a picture of it mapped in the first post)

Next up are the headlights, taillights, and indicators.

 

 

Feel free to leave questions, suggestions, or comments.

Will it use the default lightbar?

Most likely on initial release, although I've scaled it down so that it does not go across the entire top.

I haven't done much with GTA V emergency lighting so that might take a bit for me to figure out, and I wouldn't want to make anyone wait while I mess with the lights.

Neat bearcat. Will it be a DEV model? I'd love to make an LASD variant out of one of those.

Thanks! and most likely, then people who know more about the weird lighting can add some good lightbars and such.

Just curious, what would a LASD variant have?

Good man.

The ones I know have the blocky RoboCop style lightbar on top with massive wig-wags mounted on the front.

Bearcat isn't that old is it? I would have thought they would use the Chevy Stepvan in the 80's

Well I'd assume you people would like an unlocked model without pony decals all over it, too.

Bx buggs CVPI brony stuff on his car

 

Ah okay, I get the pony reference now.

So the past few days have been pretty slow because I just got back to school and started a new semester, but it should pick up and it's getting pretty close now.

 

I've got temporary lights all finished and I think the vehicle textures/shaders are now GTA V ready. I just have to do some more tweaks and then hopefully it will be in-game. At which point, I'll probably be looking for someone (or a few someones) that wants to alpha test it, so that I can spend more time working on the model and less time finding the bugs.

New picture in the spoiler below, and I'll update the first post as well.

Don't mind the tires, they are fixed now.

 

I'm in love with that bearcat ! :)
