Hello there,

I have been searching on the web for quite some time to find some answers, however there's nothing close to my problem.

 

Well, the lightbar on the sheriff2 vehicle is completely black, and of course no lights. However the rest of the LED strobes works around the car.

I noticed that if I turn my vehicle upside down, a reflection of the light is to be seen in the air. Photo attached.

Another picture showing the black lightbar, while lights are on.

 

I have checked all carvariations.meta files.. everything should be clear. No carvariations.meta file was uploaded with the vehicle mod. I have had this problem on the Ford Explorer as well.

You can either turn windowtint to ''None'' in your trainer, or edit the .META. 

It did not help unfortunately. I'm not sure how to edit the meta file, as there was no meta file uploaded with the vehicle, so it should work.

Did you go into your trainer and turn window tint to stock? That SHOULD work. And as for vehicles.meta, that isnt how it works. There is a vehicles.meta for EVERY vehicle in the game. So the sheriff2 you modded is using the vanilla vehicles.meta (Or a modded one, whichever you installed)

 

To edit the META, drag the vehicles.meta that includes your sheriff2 vehicles.meta to your desktop. Open it in something like notepad. Hit CTRL F and search for Sheriff2. Then, read this thread: 

 

Thanks! It finally worked after editing the vehicle.META file, now the lightbar works fine. However the brightness of the lights is very poor, could it be the carvariations.meta file? 

Nope. I suggest using these for brighter lights and realistic lighting patterns

Not BLINDING BRIGHT lights like RadianceV: 

More realistic lighting patterns and flashes:

 

That looks amazing buddy, you resolved my problems! There's another issue though, my lights on the cruiser is not bright at all when you like 10-15 feet away from it. Do you know any fixes?

Every vehicle is made differently, and I believe that is apart of that "difference"...

I cant offer any support there. Maybe someone else can. Sorry.

EDIT: Maybe try the large corona option in BEL?
