ELS Turns Off Vehicle Lights

[THEMIGHTYCB 3]

So weird,

When I activate code three lights only on my vehicles all my break lights and headlights turn off and some other bright white light turns on. When I turn my emergency lights off, they turn back to normal. 

 

Help would be great please!

I'll try attaching it here just wasn't working before. Otherwise, I'll just send photos. 

 

So this is it when the second button of els is activated not full code three the back tail lights are on. 

Then when I go full code three they turn off and the front led white lights turn on... you can see the back right is off it is not flashing.

did you add the els file in correct place? with the correct file.

Sure did, this is happening with all my vehicles. It's weird though. When I leave the game and go back in it works for a while then it happens again.....

hmm not too sure then tbh, usually when my lights work it's because of els file i didn't add by mistake.

 

did you remap your keys at all? could be that but if not i'm not too sure. Weird how it'll work sometimes but then not others.

I put the vehicles into openiv patchday18ng and the vehicle files into pack_default for els and only  changed the ambulance siren to 'false'. IF there is anyone out there with some clue, it would be great!!!! it is really bugging me. Thank you poroushawk for your help, mate!

 

 

It even turns off one my headlights and steady indicators at the front.

last try, try adding the vehicles into the mods folder section instead of patchday. if you don't know what i mean by the mods folder vehicle area let me know i'll guide you through it.

 

Failing that send me the vehicle files/els file and ill add it to my game. see if i get any errors while adding it.

Hi Al Vesington, as annoying as it sounds, I completely removed everything and started from scratch in a clean GTA V copy that I had. One by one, I placed the folders back in.

Yeah as much as it is a pain, it will be worth it in the end. Nothing better than having a fresh folder. Basically just be mindful with the files you are altering particularly when using programs like OpenIV. I cannot stress enough how important it is to make backup files for each file you decide to alter. What I do is make a folder called backup then within that file I make two others called 'original' and 'altered' and copy each file in both so I can alter them and revert back to the original if something is corrupt or causes issues.

I've tried re-making my mods folder from a fresh GTAV and it seems to be the moment I put an ELS file into a certain slot, for example POLICE.XML, the moment an ELS xml file goes into the POLICE.xml slot, all my vehicles start having this issue, it's an interesting issue.
