Emergency Vehicle Lighting

[JBin818 157]

I was wondering what you all are using for improving police lights.  Popular one was RadianceV but it hasn't been updated though I think it still works.  I see one called Better Emergency Lights that is updated most recently.  Is that the same a RadV?  Better Emergency Lights, not to be confused with a new one I saw just now called Better Emergency Lighting which was just submitted a few hours ago.  I'm looking for one that fixes the ELS low light problem and has nice looking lighting off the surroundings when the emergency lights are on.  So just wondering what everyone is using.

Radiance V, Is probably the most used one, What do you mean it hasn’t been updated ? What needs updating ?

I don't know!  BEL 1.6 says it was submitted Feb 22,2018 and updated May 1 this year.  So I wasn't sure about RadV.

I am learning more about how visuals work and what file gets changed.  So I am a bit unfamiliar with what needs updating and what doesn't.  In the update versions of BEL 1.6 is says mostly bugs that got fixed on the different versions that came out.  Were those bugs because of 0.4 or does it have nothing to do with 0.4?  I don't know.  From what I see when you install these types of visual mods they go into the visualsettings I guess.  The different visual mods I think is where the developer has changed the visiualsettings to their personal liking.   So If i'm right about all that then I'm learning it, lol.  Not sure yet but I may try BEL 1.6.  I look for good reviews to.  I've used Rad V on 3.0 but thinking of something different.

The thing is, you can easily do yourself what Radiance and all these "make lights brighter" mods do, it just requires opening the visualsettings and changing some values.  These guys aren't doing anything special or unique, they are just raising values to make lights brighter.  The visualsettings you started off with by default can be just as good if all you want is better lights.

Yeah, I've briefly saw what's inside the VS file.  Haven't explored it too much.  You just have to know what lines to change and how high or low.  I've had limited time these past few months  so I just prefer to DL a  good visual from someone.  And like most the main reason to install one of these is because the ELS vehicles lights are too dim.  I would also like the lights bouncing of the walls and buildings.  So I'm not sure if that is another line to change in the VS file.  Again. don't have much time to explore it.
