I'm still getting the same error, i haven't uninstalled it, cause i wanna use it, everything is installed the way it should be.

Jorge, any updates? I'd like to use the spotlights with a proper sounding car.

Hey I just downloads it and followed all the instructions (very clear). When I start my game and it loads I get this message (Error in script 'LawEnforcement.spotlight'!). I followed all the instructions and placed them were they we're suppose to be. Thanks for your help can't wait to try it out.

This is on regular grand thieft auto 4

try pressing "~" in game and type reload scripts. That usually will work.

EFox when I do that nothing happens

hmmm, try reinstalling the script in your folder maybe?

EFox when I do that nothing happens

its reloadscripts not reload scripts so try that.

Sc2142, I tried that but the error message still came up.

hey the error message does not come up but now how do you turn it on the instructions were weird. thanks for all your help

hey i just found out why i got the error code. spotlight wont run with lcpdfr do have any solutions.

may be old post but just downloaded the spotlight mod...awesome and works so nicely with realistic time cycle v5...my only gripe is that the spotlight beam is not very bright when you look at the car but the light itself is bright and works

Hey guys,

Please post here, any problems that you are having with the spotlight script and I will be more than happy to correct the issues.

Update:

I just released V1R1.2,

If you have SpotLight already installed, Simply replace the spotlight.net.dll file and add the following lines to the ini;

[NSTOCKADE]

spot-x=0

spot-y=0

spot-z=0

[Noose]

spot-x=0

spot-y=0

spot-z=0

New Findings:

The spotlight shows up for some police cars but doesn't for others, for example, it shows up on my police2 but not on the noose.

If this is happening, open up common/data/vehicles.ide

Look for the car that you are having problems with and make sure that all the names are consistent.

They should look something like this.

police, police, car, POLICE, POLICE, VEH@STD

For example, I have seen where someone had it like so;

police, police, car, POLICE, ADMIRAL, VEH@STD

As you can see, on the 5th entry, it is written down as ADMIRAL, this will simply not work as the names have to be consistent across the entire entry.

There was a problem with the first version released, V1R1.2 should fix this problem. If you are using V1R1, I suggest you update it to the newest(V1R1.2)

Copy images.txt to your desktop, Make the change to the file on your desktop, drag it back to the original folder to overwrite it.

Please look below at Michael's post if you need help installing it on EFLC.

If you need any car mappings, take a look at this thread.

Notes:

If you are getting an object reference error it is because it did not create the spotlight object.

There may be 2 problems.

1. you did not put the spotlight.img in the right directory pc>models>cdimages

if you did then,

2. take a look at the images.txt file and make sure that you added:

platformimg:/models/cdimages/spotlight 0

Please note that between "spotlight and "0" there is a tab, not a space.

i tired this and still error

Randomly the police and noose file don't work?! -.-

may be old post but just downloaded the spotlight mod...awesome and works so nicely with realistic time cycle v5...my only gripe is that the spotlight beam is not very bright when you look at the car but the light itself is bright and works

increase detail distance to 30 its much better beam

definately worked

yup its great i dunno if everyone knew that

i have the "LawEnforcement.spotlight" error and i did the maping for my cars that i want the spotlight on and i still have the same error

reload scripts

Question, shoulda thought of this earlier, but, for some reason when i instal this my game just keeps loading, meaning it doesn't crash, just continues loading, so i have to "CTRL+ALT+DELETE" to get out of the game, any ideas?

I don't think it works when LCPDFR is running. So you should get in whatever cop car you want first then turn on the spotlight then start up lcpdfr and the spotlight will now be working. If it's like a hard cop car to get like a noose one, start up lcpdfr get your officer and get your car then reloadscripts, then start up the spotlight before you start lcpdfr, THEN start up lcpdfr and do whatever you want.

That's how I do it at least.

That seems like just a pile of hassle lol
