Deactivated Member 0 Posted May 7, 2016 No possible way any modern day department would get their grubby hands on some classic Skybolts. Collectors wouldn't allow that. But ya know, you could always fix it, to be spot on to the real thing... Quote Link to comment

I was under the impression that the agency this car is based off used LED's in the bubbles like Michigan State police are switching to: Quote Link to comment

I know NYPD uses LED rotators, and they look damn bright. Edited May 7, 2016 by Lundy Quote Link to comment

So I'd rather just use a very detailed bar(Great stuff from Solo). If the whole idea of a skybolt on this car is making you uncomfortable, I can remove the logos. Would you feel more comfortable with that? Quote Link to comment
solo 512 Posted May 7, 2016 (edited) I think LED is possible with the mars bar but it does not look good. Generally I find the LED and a Vintage Lightbar does not fit. And of modern Cars a Vintage Lightbar looks noot good too. This is the wrong Epoche for Vintage Bars Edited May 7, 2016 by solo Quote Link to comment

What started off as a fuckaround car, is now a project. fml lol. Now I need to see if I can create a module that can give me the proper effect for the leds. Thanks @solo. Do you know if there is a way to slow down the rotators in the game? I feel like this thing won't look right with the rotators moving at the speed they do. Quote Link to comment

You can try the ambulance's sirensettings, but then you will have to move the y axes far far down and deal without any enviromental effects. Quote Link to comment
solo 512 Posted May 7, 2016 I know that the Captured Transport and the Snow Police Car have slower Rotators but i dont know how can reduce the Speed of Rotators. Quote Link to comment
Black Jesus 3,771 Posted May 7, 2016 Alright, I think I'll put this project on hold for now. This is what I get for experimenting lol. I'll keep messing with it to see if I can get the desired effect I want, but thanks for the help guys Quote Link to comment
