Im still finishing the update. Got parking lights and front sidemarkers working.

 

Test of new equipment for 2014 LAPD FPIU
 

A better view on  iKey SkinnyBoard, which i modeled yesterday. LAPD used it on their '16 fpius.
Model is 1260 polys in total. So i think its done.

with backlighting
 

Beautiful. I just want to point out that in your screenshot containing a push bar with Whelen IONs lighting package, I am not sure if it's mixed up in the department but the screenshot below shows it equipped with Federal Signal IMPAXX IPX6 series LED mounts, along with Federal Signal MicroPulse Ultra built inside the headlight corners for hide-a-way. It's a complete Federal Signal package. Just wanted to help out with accuracies.  
 

 

Some little updates, got modeled the facelifted door moldings.

Btw, next update of 2014 FPIU will contain full proper LODS support. It's 4 lods like every default car have. (At currently released version there's only 1 lod, but it's atleast not the copy of main model). Thanks to @steinberg4145 for help and motivation .

Oh, just tried it with lightbar and get this... Just want to show it

@Flak

Just a test of current state of 3d model.

An update, working hard.

lol GTA 5 Mods had to take down one of my mods due to it sharing default game files (The vehicles are uv map for customization so no they are not just the default files). They figured out what it was and are going to allow it for now. Everyone is blowing this way out of proportion before anyone knows any true facts.
 
The bad most backing factor I could find about this issue as of today: I downloaded the new gun runner update on my xbox 1 version of the game. I've never seen it before but I got a disclaimer to report any abuse of GTA Online and it would be reviewed and appropriately be handle if any exploit were found and if you are found using any, your account would be banned/disabled. (This is not the exact wording but I'm generalizing). I've never recall seeing this in the past nor do I know if its been there for a while already but odd this comes around the same time. Yet again this ONLY APPLIES TO GTA ONLINE!
 
For Rock star games to change all of there files to a different format would be a lot of work  for the company to do and I frankly do not believe it. Try explaining to a greedy corp executive that you need thousands, millions of dollars to basically remake a game to stop single player exploits that cost them no money to be exploited. This  would get turned down right away (Common greedy knowledge tells you if it doesn't cost you money why worry about it). So the file change thing I'm skeptical about. Also whats to stop another coder from coming along and breaking the code for those files? Then they just wasted all that money for nothing.
 
The good. Take 2 and rock star games have a lot of money. They could easily afford to have a legal document properly proof read before sending it to the person or persons being served the document and translated properly as well. The grammar of the letter brings so much doubt of its authenticity that I am very skeptical about it. PC Gamer recalled and I even remember when an ARK modder sent a bogus cease and deists letter to another modder who made Pokemon replace Dinosaurs  in the game and led to  forcing the mod shut down TEMPORARILY as a prank. That could very well be what this is. More  skepticism I have with this is that OpenIV never published the letter entirely. Just bits and pieces of it. They don't have a Legal obligation not to post the entire letter. If they did then they violated it by revealing the poorly written grammar portion of the letter which in there post they clearly say it is written that way on the cease and deists letter.
 
With all of the above however I do understand the precaution of You Tubers discontinuing there episodes in fear as in some cases YouTube is there main source of revenue and can't afford to lose it as well as other sites taking pre cautionary actions over modding.
 
But with all that being said. Wait until someone gets a hold of Rockstar Games and/or Take 2 and get there side of the story to prove its authenticity. I'm not saying to get your hopes up here because I could be wrong but no one has been available for comment as of yet. With a gaming magazine as big as PC Gamer inquiring about the accusations and them not responding leads up to three scenarios:
 
They haven't responded because they are not aware of any such letter (That is what I'm hoping for anyways).
 
They were not available for comment because the time the post was released was after normal business hours (Could be a possibility).
 
Or they are trying to come up with a legal Pro PR way of coming out about the cease and desist letter and trying to save face with the community (Most likely)
 
However we always have rockstar pretty much okay with it via there  blog okaying the modding of single player:

Read on below, via Rockstar Games' official blog. Emphasis added.
"We have always appreciated the creative efforts of the PC modding community and we still fondly remember the awesome zombie invasion mod and original GTA map mod for GTAIV PC among many other classics. To be clear, the modding policy in our license has not changed and is the same as for GTAIV.  Recent updates to GTAV PC had an unintended effect of making unplayable certain single player modifications. This was not intentional, no one has been banned for using single player modifications, and you should not worry about being banned or being relegated to the cheater pool just for using single player PC mods. Our primary focus is on protecting GTA Online against modifications that could give players an unfair advantage, disrupt gameplay, or cause griefing. It also bears mentioning that because game mods are by definition unauthorized, they may be broken by technical updates, cause instability, or affect your game in other unforeseen ways."
So in short, Rockstar supports the use of single-player mods in Grand Theft Auto 5. Rejoice!
 
 

You may be thinking, "XDUFJUFSJHNGHANWHF ME OPENIV IS GOOONNENEEE AAAAaaAaaaAAAaAAAAAA I CXANT MOD NO MOREEE HOW CN I FCLIVE NO MOAR U TUBE VIDEYASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well you've come to the right topic.
 
Now you may still have OpenIV on your computer if you didn't overreact like some spastic tweaker, but you'll see a new update (version 2.9) or a new message.

Now you know you're no lawyer, but you're an edgy pre-teen who likes GTA V minion mods, or some short circuit light bulb who drives around in a retired fleet car with amber "warning" lights, with thin blue line garbage plastered everywhere the rectangle will fit, and pretends to enforce his neighborhood watch program while being as grey as he can with the law, but who uploads YouTube videos with that there __PDFR mod, where they could do all those things that would be in direct violation of your state and federal laws. Yet let's assume you'll get some knowledge from my simple how-to topic here that'll hopefully let you see that nothing has changed and you're not as sol as you think you are.
 
Step 1:
Press the button.

 
holy shit look at that!!!!

You hacked the modder code you law breaking sob.

Some progress on GMC Savana LA County Coroner

 

Taked some nice pics and I wanted to share it.

I'm completely forgot that i have proper LAPD belt, lol
 

Why? because why not
 

I agree. The Taurus looks virtually the same as the 2013 model, which is nice because the rest of them are hideous. Especially that Expedition with those rims. What the fuck is that meant to be, Pimp My Ride? Is there a PS2 in the backseat too?

I'll just leave this here for your enjoyment.

I hope to release the update for FPIU today
there's soem new screen's

and some attention on details again : wheel arch now has realistic texture instead of just black color

 

some new screens of LAPD FPIU and LAFD Dodge 4500

 

@Officer27
well, got it fixed

 

holy shit mate! thank you for sharing such a valuable DEV model!

i liked the part where you mention me

@AC-Teddy @AC-Teddy @AC-Teddy
Here's the latest and final development post for the 1996-1997 Crown Victoria.

Car is was, the Vapid Stanier from GTA IV modified with a front and rear and of a 96-97 Vic. I heavily modified the hell out of this thing. Interior from Cj24's GTA IV model, accessories from one of Bigfoot2003's model, hubcaps from some random free model on the web, wheels also. Tyre textures by BxBugs123, paintjob by FCVP71, modified to fit this Vic's template. Theeeeeeen, steering wheel from I believe a Forza game. Ford Mustang model I got that from, police equipment from Bugs, textures from Bigfoot2003, and console and accessories by me. Finally, the FS Aerodynic model by Solo, converted to a model 25 or something like that by me. This thing has kept me working and working for the past 7 months or so and it's about as good as it gets. Actually, it's the only Crown Victoria from 1991-1997 for GTA V. Of this quality at least. Model will be released as an LAPD cruiser unlocked, later followed by a DEV version. Model also has fully 3D steel wheels, so if you remove the hubcaps, the full wheel is there. You can all thank @Illusionyary bitch:) for literally ordering me to work on this thing for the past month. I got lazy... :D It's now all finished, though. Only one thing left to add. Carcols for some sick ass lighting. Netman has got that covered. Just waiting on him to finish the file edits on that, then it'll be perfect.

I would love to see people get out of their car and start yelling at you on traffic stop. Also on rare occurrences they could charge with a knife, or just their fists. Or they could maybe get out with a gun and just start shooting. All of this things happen in real life and would love to see them implemented.

Am I the only retard who can't figure out how to use, or even equipe the god damn Flashlight? Anyone?
 
EDIT: for anyone who are still wondering you have to bash U to get it in hand
