Your emissives seem really dark.

Im not sure why the light is so dark on the '96 cvpi in the second picture, it is not usually that dark. The darkness in the other pictures may be because I have lower radiance settings, and it seemed fairly fitting for an older light bar such as this. Should I lighten them a bit? Thanks for the feedback though, I try my best to cater to everyone :D

it depends if you want to be really realistic. the edge has both strobes and halogens. the strobe is very bright, but is a very quick flash. the halogen has a loweer brightness and a slower flash.

i would also use this texture for the strobes, imo thats the most realistic due to the nature of strobes

as for the halogen,i havent been able to do much testing to find the best suiting texture, you can try this. the one in the bottum left

How does this look?

Also, do you know another way to speed up flash patterns other than the LightFlashDelay option in the main ELS ini? I only want the faster patterns to effect these specific cars. Thanks for the tips, youve really helped me out 

Looking very good, excited to see this progress. I think a good third slot vehicle would be another early year CVPI, perhaps an '03? As far as I know, I am the only person who has released an '03 CVPI on this site, and it would complete the old look well, IMO.

Possibly, but I was wondering what vehicle slots the the third and (maybe fourth?) should take as in sheriff and sheriff2 for the first two cars. I most likely will add a 2003 CVPI in the future still though. And thanks for the kind words :D

EDIT: it seems that the 2003 base model has been taken down, so I have to wait until it is reuploaded or a new one comes out.

Hmm, that's a shame. I'll ask Lundy about it.
