American Siren Pack will not install.

[xSnowWolf 24]

I had this siren installed before, but then I reinstalled GTA V, it says in the error that some file is missing. It wasn't doing this before.

Please help me out.

Hey there.

 

You need a vehicles folder to go with that vehicles.oac.  Open up your download for American Sirens Pack, and you'll see the vehicles folder. Drag and drop that under vehicles.oac in your folder.

 

Also, I STRONGLY encourage you to use a mods folder.  It'll save your game in the long run.

Hello. I didn't see a "vehicles" folder at the time. I'm reinstalling GTA with a backup anyways just for a clean file with new vehicles to start from scratch. I have a Mods files, but the ReadMe said to use the x64 alone. Thanks for the help though! Also, if there is a vehicles folder, what do I do with it, just select it also?

Some of the readmes don't list the mods folder, but that is simply because they assume you're using one.  The mods folder prevents you from having to do a full reinstall. :)

 

The vehicles folder just houses the sounds.  The .oac, which OpenIV uses, essentially loads the sounds.  Double check your download of ASP. When I downloaded it a few months back the folder was there.

Just place the vehicles folder in the exact location you placed the vehicles.oac.  Next, open up OpenIV and go to mods / x64 / audio / sfx / RESIDENT.  Next, click "edit mode" at the top of OpenIV.  Next, right click in OpenIV, select "import open formats".  Select the vehicles.oac of ASP.  Just follow the prompts from here and you're good.  Remember when you're done to click edit mode again to turn it off.

You're welcome! Yeah, they generally are. Don't require anything except drag and drop. :P

Exactly. Any recommendations on what I should change the policeold vehicles to? Also is the roadcrusier policeold1 or just policeold?

I actually haven't changed the policeold vehicles.  Completely ignored them.  Probably could change them out for a Charger and a Tahoe.   Unfortunately, I have no clue which is which. The only time I have ever messed with them is in the opening to the story, lol.

Lol, they're confusing in OpenIV because there is

policeold

policeold1

policeold2

yet there's only 2 to select from in LSPDFR.

I'll get it soon. xD

In OpenIV, you can double click the .yft of the vehicle file to get a viewer of it.
