Hey guys, now that ELS is out we can make the cars as authentic as the real deal.  This is what I specialize in as I lived in LA for a huge part of my life and I always tried to put the most realism into my cars in GTA IV.  I had a long list of cars I made such as the El Segundo, Culver City, LAPD, LSPD, CHP, and many many more all with correct 3 stage lighting setup.  All these were perfectly accurate and I want to do it again.  So far we have maybe 2 LAPD ELS cars, but sorry to say they are close, but no cigar.  Lets do it right this time.  Here is the problem.  I just upgraded to zmod 3 and I haven't made a police car yet for GTA V.  I have all my parts arjent bars, crown vics and you name it, BUT I have no clue on how to import a GTA IV car into zmod3 to convert it for GTA V yet and someone was telling me that I had to do a lot of stuff to convert it.  So would someone be willing to help me get my old car into zmod3 and convert it, or would someone want to collaborate with me that already has this all set up for GTA V and I can finalize the lights for ya?  Lets do this guys.  Come on, don't leave me hangin.  The community and myself will all benefit from this. 

 

Here is a quick video of how the first and second stage should be on the real LAPD car.  This video is only to show stage 1 and stage 2.  Stage 3 pattern is incorrect because I didn't set it up in the config file yet which is a easy fix.  Also, it doesn't have the correct LAPD hubcap wheels yes I know and yes that is Tony Stark driving.  Lets do this, who's in?

 

 

 

You want to convert the vehicles from GTAIV to GTAV? Or re-make them?

Ideally its would be best to collaborate with someone who already has the GTA V LAPD car and I would do the lights or correct the lights for them.  If that is not possible, then maybe someone can help me convert my GTA IV car/cars to GTA V cars since I haven't done that before and don't know where to start. 

Well, honestly, GTAIV to GTAV shouldn't be that hard. Converting a light takes maybe 10 minutes, so the way I see it, converting a vehicle shouldn't be that bad. Plus ELS is already set on it. No need to toy around with the extras to get the right light setup.

I could help you if you'd like. Have you used Zmod3 at all?

 

Count me in! I can't model but I do have great skins for the cvpi,

If someone made this, I would love them forever. an entire LAPD pack would be great. there's only one LAPD pack and it's not really authentic, especially the crown vic.

That CVPI isn't reall realistic at all as well...

• Plate doesn't start with one
• No Red and Blue LED indicators
• It says LSPD
• The CVPI tailights looks pink
• Unrealistic lighting pattern
• Back indicators don't flash

Well I have the most accurate car and many others that are very close and some are unlocked models I believe.  I worked closely with CJ24 on my last one and then with Sgt. Kanyo on our first one.  Then he went on to making some other great realistic options.  See people like these guys and myself included are all about making it the most realistic as possible.  So I am contemplating trying to get my old LAPD from GTA IV as a GTA V car.  I am still hoping one of those LAPD guys that already has an ELS car will either let me help them or they will hear us talking and just do it.  Its such an easy fix and I could do it in probably 30 min or over a few days depending on time allowed. 

Did we all just decide to settle?  Anyone have a ready ELS Arjent bar car that we can mod for the best most authentic LAPD experience?  There are a few LAPD cars on here, but they are okay will settling with an incomplete unfinished car.  I sure would love to take on the project and finish it up right. 

anybody wants to convert my light bar and was up spit haven't hear from you in a minute
