The Interceptor is being a bit dodgey and I'm not sure if it's just me and my graphics settings or if there's actual problems with it. I could do with a couple of people to test it for me if anyone's interested.

I'd love to test it! What's the issue (if you can say it here)?

Dodgey? Could you be more specific? Maybe I can help.

I can't tell if it's just an import failure in OpenIV where I'm either not rebuilding the acrhive afterwards or I'm rebuilding it too much. The best way I can describe it is that one of two things happen; either the bodyshell mesh and some other parts like the wheels don't display at all ingame OR the textures all just go nuts and violently stretch across the screen whenever I'm looking at the vehicle.

I hope it's just a dodgy import through OpenIV though.

You probaly have too much miscs, or too much lights on your lightbar. Is it similar to this?

Yeah that's exactly what I mean. Too many lights? As in lightemissive objects? It does use all 8 police siren lights.

I should be able to just attatch some miscs to the chassis though right?

If you, for instance, have an FS Vector as lightbar, it carries 7 light dots. That can be too many, so the lights will bug. I had it with my NYPD Caprice too. To solve this you can turn two dots into one, so in total there will be around 3 or 4 objects as breakable glass. That can solve the issue. If you don't have such lightbar you can have too many miscs.

Would be more than happy to help you test something out if need be.

Hey Ekalb any chance you can add a lightbar to your vapid cruiser with 4 lights? so it's total of 8 because it's better than slicktop :) (I'm using it currently btw :D)

I've made some changes to the vehicle's hierarchy on Intensified's advice and it seems to be working now. I'll update the file for anyone testing.

SultanGT - I'm currently working on a request to put a non-els Whelen Liberty on the Vapid. It requires all 8 lights to look any good though. There are only two lightbars that I really have access to that will look good with 4 non-els lights and they are the FS Streethawk and the Mx7000. Just give me some more details of what you'd like to see and I'll add it to the list of projects and see if I can get to it.

I'd love to see a Non-ELS police landstalker made by you!

If you still need a tester, hit me with a PM. :thumbsup:

@ Ekalb - It isn't much important which you gonna put on but I'd say the mx7000 like on Vincent(?)

Many thanks for doing it :D

Sultan, Vincent has FS Streethawk :happy:

LOL ok then thats's fine it's same for me ( I made ? because I wasn't sure xD)

And after some challenges, the Interceptor is ready for release! Thanks to Intensified for his help, those who beta tested it and to Escobar who provided most of the ideas;

Edit: aaaaaaaand trouble uploading, 'file too large' error (it's only 3MB). I'll look at it tomorrow and maybe I'll try a different archive format (just .zip maybe) but I need to hit the hay now, early start at uni tomorrow.

Those with the latest beta test version - that is essentially the same version I'm releasing it just doesn't have an aerial or pretty pictures included.

Hey Ekalb, is it possible for us, end users, to change lights & lightbar colors?

Edited July 25, 201213 yr by Yard1

You can change the colours of the glass on the lightbar but the light objects themselves can only be red and blue/white and you can only have four of each colour.

You're mods are very nice, I love how they are all default cars but modded. That's what beginner's should start off at, These mods are very helpful because my computer cannot handle over-modded vehicles such as CVPI's for some reason. Also may I request an LCPD Cavalcade?

Cj24 was working on one.
