hi, i have an unlocked car and have made a copy of the part that is going to be the light. I then created a new material made it shader material and gave it the vehicle generic lights emissive shader and then added my texture assigned it to my part which is going to be the els light. I then mapped it and positioned it where I needed it in the model as you can see here: https://gyazo.com/9c191d62c1d3e379ef62d65598620e87

Then I renamed it to extra_1 and placed in the chassis of the vehicle making sure it was at the top and as the pic above shows the emissive texture is visible which is what it should do. I then exported the car and put it in open iv to work in gta v and added the light emissive texture to the ytd file and on open iv I look where the light is and I cannot see the emissive texture as shown: https://gyazo.com/a85ace6512e1cfe5ffb754bcaace298d and in game I press J 3 times and it does not flash the only thing that does is headlights and taillights and not my light I mapped,

anyone know how to make it flash in game?

In the material editor make sure that the light material is above the taillight glass material.

thanks it now flashes however the light stays on and acts as a headlight when els is off. when els is on it flashes normally but when it off it acts like a tail light as when the headlights are on the els light turns on and steady burns when els is off it should be like this https://gyazo.com/759c42fff289594683706986e5a5856f but instead the light remains visible which defeats the prupose of it as its for an unmarked vehicle
