Okay, when I press / (on second lighting mode) and els is on automatic, lights won't show unless you press J. That's not the problem. When you do that lights are much much faster which I love. Never mind what pattern are you using (A1, C5, etc), lights will get more speed.

So my question is, is there any way to speed up ELS lights from ini file or whatever? I found a line FlashDelaySP = 0 but that's for delay as name says. I doubt that putting -1 will speed lights?

How about you try it? Put -50 and see if it goes fast or not.

How about trying it out, that's how the rest of us figures stuff out.

There was a tutorial on GPM about it by SSanchez10.It stated in glitch in ELS v6 which helps it make em flash faster.It was something like if you turn on the takedowns and with your other lights turned off,and get out of the car and press Alt+O and get back in the car,you'll find lights flash faster.I'm not too sure that what I wrote above is 100% accurate but thats all I can remember.You might want to try out.

If you put a -1 or -whatever lights will disappear. Dhruv's thing doesn't work too.

I warned ya,I'm not too sure.I never tried it cuz I use v5 and that glitch's for v6.I just poured out what I dropped by and took a quick glance at,once upon a time.

It's cool bro.

Btw why are you using v5? Is it better or what?

Some people think that it is a more stable version, I cannot remember exactly why, I know there is a reason, anywho, when I used it, I didn't really see that much of a difference in performance/crashing.

ELS v6,mysteriously, works for a limited lucky people only.I still haven't succeeded in finding out why it behaves differently for different machines,but theres some unsolved mystery in it,indeed.ELS v6 crashes just too much for me (and some others) for some unknown reason.It works perfectly fine for the rest.Lt. Caine was the one who could reveal what actually is the reason behind this,but you know...he's gone.Even today,I see people using ELS-H patterns on youtube and I burn my heart to hell,and at the same time I'm left wondering how on earth can a thing respond differently for different people.Even some people with way weaker PCs than me manage to run v6 better than me.It sometimes just baffles me how its so strangely created.

I am running v6 and it'll only crash if ELS is enabled on AI, otherwise it works fine. :)

Thanks for clearing that up.

I use V5 and haven't had 1 crash at all, but there aern't as many options, you can't turn on primaries when the spot light is on, you can't disable the annoying ticking (but i found out the snow mod disables the ticking, you can't turn on the spotlight in V5 unless the menu panel is on at all times, V6 i would get crashes every 20-30mins, V5 i get 2-4 hours constant playing before any crashes at all., as for AI that still crashes in V5

@Eagle: Whats the point when other cars aren't using the lights.You must be the same in the league as me,then.

@Slimory: What spotlight? Takedowns? Or do the spotlights really work? I thought they were non-functional? Never noticed it :shrugs:.Please do tell how can I switch that ticking off.

I have one more problem.I have EFLC with all-ELS models and GTA:IV with non-ELS models.Still,I disable all vehicles from using ELS by putting Active=0 and let ELS in the directory to use its ground reflections.But while playing LCPD:FR,sometimes my primary ELS lights go ELS,automatically.And the rambar starts to fluctuate.This is becoming a headache for me.Ideas anyone? I know,this would be thread hijacking,but I don't think somebody would mind providing a solution for this tiny problem.

i found the snow mod, that disables the ticking, but thats alot of work if just to turn the ticking off,as for the fluctuating rambar, i do believe that, that is an outdated car mod or it's missing something, LCPDFR has the 3 lighting modes that still work with non-ELS car's but not the ELS effect, they still flash but not the ELS effect lol, the fluctuating i had a problem with that with an FBI cruiser and an NYPD cruiser, i just use the newer models now, less headache. either that, the model is buggy, but it does happen when you use a model nobody has updated in awhile, my luck, when i first started modding, that seemed to be the only thing i found lol

No,actually,it even does it with Sam's modified CV.I believe it has something to do with ELS installed.Although,I have all the slots set to Active=0,it still manages to turn it on somehow.Not sure how it does,but while responding to a call,turning on the sirens I notice that it does.Actually,I realize it when I exit the car,cuff the dumbass,and he follows me to the car,I notice doors fluctuating while opening it and then come to realize that ELS is on! Rambar fluctuating is pretty obvious and self-explanatory as ELS uses extras to flash,and in that case,rambar is an extra.

I have 5 modded ELS police vehicles, ELS V6 with AI enabled and I never really crash.

Evidence....for justification of my post.

I know it's strange, my brother will have ELS V6 installed and two car mods (noose + fbi) and his game will crash every minute. Yet, V5 he can have as many mods as he wants even police1 and police2.

As I said.I can make a suspense movie out of it.
