Hi,

 

I've finally managed to get my game to load after the update. LSPDFR as well as other mods I previously downloaded all work however none of the police cruisers I previously downloaded play in the game. Since the update I only have access to the games default police cruisers. I'm sure I've missed something. Does anything come to mind that someone can help me with? If it helps I went into Open IV under my mods folder and tried to access the police.yft file and I got a message saying "unable to open archive: Unknown file format or archive is corrupted."

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm a novice to the game and am going through my first update. 

I'm having problems getting my mods folder to work.  I copied everything over that I'm supposed to and I'm getting frustrated.  I'm at a loss as well.

I went in and found they I needed to go to mods>update>update.rpf>common>data and edit the dlclist.xml file to account for any extra entries that you may have in the dlcpacks folders (I use albo's modding dlc folder and couple of addons I have use their own).  In your case, you might have had your mods copied over.  It might well be the case if you didn't have a separate dlc folder for your addons.

I found the location of the file but what do you mean by edit? I'm very new at this.

The file locations cited in that .xml file should match the dlc folders you have.  If they don't.  You need to add a line in the same format pointing to those folders.  You can do this by right-clicking on the .xml file and selecting edit while in edit mode in OpenIV.

You made my day man that worked. Thanks a lot, appreciate the help. 

I am having basically the exact same issue. I have loaded all files into correct areas. When I get into the game an try to spawn the mod vehicle the default game vehicle spawns. I can control the siren like an ELS vehicle but only the wig wags and rear lights come on. You can see some lighting coming through on the grill lights but barely. Also it appears that there is reflection on walls as if your emergency lights work. Also on the ELS panel it does not show that lights are flashing. Anyone have a solution other than the one mentioned on here? One more thing on the ELS Crash report it showed that I have a faulty VCF file. This cant be true as these are the same files I have used before update.

I ran into that to an extent.  I found that I had to edit the dlclist.xml as mentioned above and any ENB or visual modifications had to be reinstalled.

I did all of that but It didn't help. I ended up getting frustrated and just said to hell with it and did a complete reinstall. I had a feeling a tweak so many things and probably screwed some of my files up. But hey, all works well now. Only thing now the game seems to lag more with the newest updates. There is a new ragenativeUL update that could fix this issue.
