It looks like whoever made the vehicle made it so you could change this however it doesn't look like they Mapped the car correctly. I hope the moderators don't mind but I noticed that the model was unlocked so I went ahead and fixed it for you I DO NOT CLAIM ANY OF THE WORK OF THIS MODEL AS BEING MY OWN. I simply made a Template for the vehicle and Mapped it to the model so that the Roof and Front bumper issue would be resolved to be painted. I do not claim building the model or anything else of that nature. With that being said below is a picture of it in Open IV (Don't mind the wheel that's how the model was made by the original creator). I have Mapped the model completely now with the front bumper and the roof of the car. I created a copy of a black and white one very quickly just to showcase that it is fixed and included it as well. If you find it that you have to change the vehicles color ingame to get the model to show up correctly you need to simply change the carvariation for that police slot to mimic that of police and it should work. Finally the template is included as well. You just need to simply make a copy of it and then perform your work on the copy version. When you are done open the texture file on OpenIV and replace the audi template with the new one you created This way you will always have the template in case you get tired of your created version and want to make a new one. These instructions are included in the attached readme file. (Note I forgot to template the mirrors but I fixed that with the file now so that they match only the color of the car where it is gray in the pictures. You cannot separate this from the model so if you have a white car that will be white and cannot be changed to a separate color). I've also left the model unlocked as it was uploaded like this. I hope this doesn't break any rules as I just wanted to help is all. Enjoy.

Well I rebuilt the vehicle to give it a shot and it didn't work. Figured I've give my idea a shot and IT WORKED! For those having this problem too it was because I was using police3 slot instead of the designated spot for the lightbar which was police. So what I did was I changed the carvariation for police3 with police and it worked. This also fixed my issue with the skin not showing up properly. Thanks again for the help. Video of the fixed model now:

Thank you for narrowing my search down as to what could be causing the problem. Its weird I thought it was something to do using police3 instead of police because I tested a CVPI out to get the hang of GTA 5 modeling on police1 and it seemed to work right. I'll give this a shot and see if I get lucky with it. Thanks again for the info. Also regarding the rambar I figured it out last night. I had renamed it to extra_11 and this solved the problem so now my units will show up with rambars and/or no rambars too. Just need to figure out the template problem and that's it. I saw the Silverado Model on here use to have this problem but it doesn't anymore so I'm wondering what he had to do to fix it.

Sorry its kind of hard to see what its doing. Anyway to make the pictures bigger?

Not sure if you were able to solve this but I think what may have happen at least what I had luck with is when I saved a vehicle to police_hi I needed to make a copy of it and then rename it to police. After importing both into Open IV that solved my problem. Hope it helps if you haven't fixed it already.

First off thanks in advance to anyone who can help. I'm having two problems with a vehicle model that I just templated over to a police vehicle. 1. Is that it is template and it shows up fine in the game however in order for me to get it to show up correctly I have to change the color of the vehicle in the color menu to white for both primary and secondary. Do I need to simply just delete the old paint material that use to be associated to the old paint job for it to work? Question 2. I'm having a problem with this lightbar that I have downloaded. I'm not sure what is causing the issue. Before in Zmodeler 2 with GTA 4 cars I would just assume that something wasn't not moved all together with the object and that is why some of it is in place and the rest isn't. How would I go about fixing this so it works correctly? One last thing that I'm hoping is an easy fix but I'm trying to get the rambar to be a vehicle component instead of something constantly attached to the vehicle to give myself the option to turn it off in game if I don't want it. I have it in the hierarchy as misc_d. Do I need to simply rename it to something else for it to do this and if so what is it? Extra5 or something? I've attached two photos of the hierarchy in case maybe I have misplaced something in the wrong spot and also a video to show exactly the two problems I'm facing. Thanks again, Alex

Hey replied to your PM. I made my first model but never heard back from you. Just hit me up on Skype and I'll try to help the best I can. I don't know everything and still trying to get answers for some things I'm not sure how to fix but I'll answer what I can.

Do they show correctly in Zmoddeler and Open IV? Or does it look like it does in game?

Bump got component down need help with converting else light bars from 4 to gta 5

Now my question is how to turn els light bars into gta 5 ones if anyone knows or if it's even possible. If I'm gonna build a model I would prefer to take the time to add a nice light bar to the vehicle as well instead of just shortcutting it with the gta 5 default ones.

@Virzza hey thanks for responding so fast. Im gonna PM you shortly. Appreciate you taking time out of your day to help me.

Hey everyone, Thanks in advance to anyone that can show me but I am starting to get back into vehicle modeling from gta 4. I got the basic down on changing a car over to make it a police model and I got the template building down as well. My question is components like light bars and ram bars and what not. I have some from gta 4 model building days and I've watched videos on YouTube of how people convert 4 cars over to gta 5. Is converting a component from gta 4 to 5 the same as the videos show for an entire vehicle?

I use to have this problem and found out it was the unzip software that I was using. I would recommend downloading 7zip and when you download the file again right click on it and select 7zip, extract files, then select the location.

In zmoddler when you do the move you have to untick one of the options I believe it's move with child but I don't recall.

Thank you for the tutorial video. It was what I was looking for to see how different GTA 5 modded vehicles are to GTA 4 as I use to do it for GTA 4 but haven't tried GTA 5 yet

Anyone?

Thank you guys. Bugs you were right that I needed to update. Appreciate the quick response everyone. Thanks Again

Hello, When I try and download this Mod or if I try and download the CVPI Marked and slicked top models from BXbugs (Sorry didn't grab the links. Can if it helps) I complete the download however when I go to extract the files the program says that the files are corrupt and cannot be extracted. I've downloaded all 3 using Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome. I've also used 3 different apps to try and extract the files and only one of the two will extract the files however it doesn't extract all the files.
