So i have been trying to wrap my head around this. I have ELS working but not on my controller. I have checked a lot of .ini and I can't seem to figure out why my controller isn't working with ELS. I'm fairly new to this mod, actually, i've never modded GTA before I tried this mod and I'm having a blast. Just if I can get the controller to work. Any thoughts anyone?

Els is not very good with controllers, i would advise you use keyboard when using els and move using controller.

 

I agree with 0sc4r in that ELS is not very good with controllers.  I use free my controller and that pretty much makes ELS usless with a controller.  So, I just use Siren Mastery and use my controller to control the sirens and use the keyboard to control ELS lighting.

ELS works really good with a controller. Download ''Button Config #2'' from ''Who needs them?'' and it will unbind all the controller bindings you don't need and ELS will work without any problem whilst using a controler.

Right now, i can't. It looks like the file has been taken down from LCPDFR.com

Ok, Just wanted to make sure i wasn't going crazy because i couldn't find it either. I am using a couple controller mods. Xenolit Car Controls and Free my controller. That shouldn't effect it should it? 

ive disabled every other key binding to every other mod that uses Left, Right, Up and down and even with some conflicts...my ELS works great with controllers...make sure in the INI
AllowController = true

and the default controls are

DPAD Up-Toggle the auxiliary siren. (The system must be in LSTG 3 with Main siren on).
DPAD Down-Toggle the main siren (the system must be in LSTG 3).
DPAD Left-Change lighting stage (LSTG). Functionality will vary according to LSTG activation type in vehicle configuration file.
DPAD Right-Toggle takedown lights (TKD).
L-STICK Pressed-Sound the vehicle’s main horn; control siren tones when HF siren mode is active.
B-Sound the manual 1 tone (M1) when main siren is off. Sound next tone in sequence when main siren is on.
L-STICK Pressed + B-Sound the manual 2 tone (M2) when main siren is off.
A-Toggle blackout mode (BKT) when LSTG is 0.,

Also..please make sure your VCF files are installed correctly...if the car isnt responding to the keyboard controls, then the VCF's are missing or theres an issue with the Asi loader

It has been stated multiple times that ''Free my controller'' does not work with ELS.

Yep thats the one. Download 'Button Config #02' and ELS and your controller will work perfectly.
