I have this same exact problem with the 2016 Oregon State Police Charger.. I have NVR (NaturalVision) Brighter Emergency Lights LSPDFR in and the lights look great up close but like he said within 10 ft away the lights fade out to white and get dim. So it is the car? I was hoping there was maybe a setting somewhere to make them come in bright at a distance too.

I have found that turning ELS Traffic Control setting off helps with this where you try to use the horn to get them to stop and they keep driving, turning this to off solved that problem for me.. its called ELSTrafCtrlOn in settings of ELS.ini

I have found for one if you put Shaders and Post FX to high on settings it helps lights come in, I have tried several VisualSettings for the most realistic lights and so far the best I have found is the NaturalVision Remastered better lights for LSPDFR optional visual settings.. my only problem now is that the lights look amazing when within like 10 ft of the car but if you go any further they fade out dim and turn white.. I have tried to find out how to make them look just as good as they do when you are right there close to them from afar but am stumped on how to do that.. but for the lights up close and personal this visualsettings called Brighter Emergency Lights LSPDFR optional addon with NaturalVision Remastered looks the best.. also NVR has really good graphics and shading I think.

Yes it is a separate addon!

Usually RAGE will ask if you want to back up when you get a new RAGE version otherwise you can go into RAGE Plugin Hook settings and backup the game data it backs up roughly a gig and it doesn't take too long. Otherwise updates always add new update.rpf folders so you should backup your current update.rpf in Mods because you will need to copy the new update.rpf from the new update to your mods folder to run the new update properly, then you will have to copy your mods back into the Mods folder update rpf that was updated.

Do you have the OSP uniform with the new EUP? I was not able to have the old OSP uniform after the new EUP update to 8.0+ because of the uniform size difference, I was able to put the hat and pants back but had to use a different similar uniform think it was based off of Alaska State Troopers.. where did you find that uniform that is in your profile picture?

Scripthook is not required to my knowledge to run LSPDFR as it is run on RAGE, Scripthook allows you to use optional .ASI scripts or Scripthook.NET for Scripts that you put in the scripts folder for example I have one that is a police radar, also ELS is not required for vanilla LSPDFR with default cars and such, ELS is an optional addon for enhanced lightning on supported vehicles that you can find here on this website but ELS is optional and LSPDFR does not require it to run. As far as I know all you need to run LSPDFR by itself is RAGE Plugin Hook.

I can't remember if I receive any callouts from that pack as I have a lot lol but I do still have High Priority Callouts on 0.4.2 with no crashes from the pack.

Hmm there is a bug that happened before 0.4.2 that has recurred that is when I go to switch character after loading LSPDFR the overhead view that moves to the police station similarly to when you switch GTA characters.. the view does not behave normally and instead it shows texture loss under the police station before going to the mugshot room and when you select the character you want and hit enter to use them nothing happens and when you look at the LSPDFR tab it shows the default game stats signifying that LSPDFR is not really loaded anymore and the same thing happens when you are in the apartment and click E on the door to exit the apartment it does nothing so its like LSPDFR stops working when you do those things.. when I first installed this new version this bug was fixed and fine for about a day or two.. I tried copying the new two files in and overwriting to see if it would fix this but it did not so I restarted the game and then my PC and it still is occuring.. it still gives me a random character when I load in the game so maybe I could save them in EUP and use them that way but does anyone have any ideas on why this is happening or what may be causing it and what to do to fix it?

So far this update is amazing!! Before this update my game randomly decided if I tried to switch characters that it would not let me it would just not do anything and act like LSPDFR was not loaded so I used EUP to set characters on the fly.. this update so far has fixed that and I am now able to switch characters.. when I first tried I noticed a crash but I reloaded and tried again and it was fine.. only issues I see so far are when I go into the Police Station to go on duty and when I go on duty then look through clothing in the locker I get a crash after a few seconds.. I have a thing that modifies configs through Custom to add EUP uniforms to the locker so maybe that is the issue but it is no biggie as I just select my character and force duty then select a uniform through EUP.. before this version there were so many "Ambient Spawn" crashes even when I went into the .ini and set to disable Ambient Spawn.. especially in the City.. I have been playing for 30-45 mins in the city with no ambient spawn crashes.. not sure if the setting works now or if it was a patch fix but anyway I am so happy to be able to play for several mins with no Ambient Spawn crashes.. the badge thing is really cool although I have not figured out how to switch from FBI to Police badge but that's okay.. the riot shield is also a really cool feature and I may just delete the riot shield script I have that I don't really use and end up dropping most of them when I press O anyway haha all in all so far this is really smooth and stable and all the plugins work flawlessly for the time being that I had on 0.4.1 and this is a really good update!! I look forward to more updates and more features to come.. awesome work and thank you all for what you do.. Devs, Admins, all Staff etc. we appreciate what you do.
