I've been trying to track down HOW to make this happen. How to make emissives in lightbars/around cars break when your vehicle takes damage or when they get shot rather than simply get deformed out into the air to float around the car, killing immersion. 

 

Here's how you do it: 

1: Get all of your emergency light emissives on the screen. 
2: Shift+A to select them all. 
3: Go into Vertex mode
4: Shift+A to select all vertices
5: Go into Surface -> Paint ->Options; Select Primary Color, G Channel
6: Paint all vertices G Channel Primary Color to YELLOW. 
7: Now your light emissives will break instead of float around the vehicle when they take damage. 

 

Tired of seeing floating lights on half the good mod cars out there after taking body damage.

Dose this work on ELS as far as I know this only works for Non-Els

Sorry, i don't build els cars. I have no idea. 

 

In theory you'd think it would since this is damage states painting on the vertice.
