Maybe its just me since I'm anal to the details but there are quite a few small issues. The lightbar feet appear to be to low on the roof like they are sunken in. The XT6's you used in the rear doors are floating, they aren't attached to anything, as well as the cord goes into mid air. The radar display unit is sunken into the dash. The textures appear to be messed up on the visor lights of the "slicktop" version. The modules look black but maybe its suppose to be like that. You used a CVPI pushbar on a Impala and there is a texture issue with the Go Rhino logo on the middle of the bar, evident in the last photo. The TIR3's used on the pushbar and the mirrors seem to be way to big in my opinion anyway. The traffic advisor is in front of and covering up the rear radar unit and the cords for it are able to be seen in the trunk when opened. Last but not least the console, why is it just textures and not a simple model of a cencom and a radio? Like I said before I'm anal to the details so don't take it the wrong way. Scale some things down to better fit the car. Your on the right track but it still needs some TLC.

How many times did you un-install GTA IV?
NickieB replied to OfficerAndrew's topic in GTA IV Discussion & Media
I only did a actual uninstall maybe 2-3 times. Then I learned its much faster to just make a entire copy of the IV directory and if I screw something up I just paste that back in. I keep a vanilla backup as well as a current backup that I use to do every few weeks depending on how much stuff I was changing. Now days I don't change much anymore besides cars/guns/peds so there really isn't much to screw up there. -

Glad it helped - now that you have it narrowed down to those 3 things take them all out and put them back in one at a time. Then you'll know your problem or problems if its multiple parts. I had a feeling it was going to be the misc equipment. Thats what always gave me issues as well when I happened to have RC20 problems with a car. As for the door/window and tire issue I would have no idea. When you spawn the car the windows/door are at weird angles? Or the doors open at strange angles? Do the doors and windows angle the same way in relation to each other? Like this Or does one go and the other /? Hope you can understand my stone age diagram Off topic - seeing that GIF in your signature in the corner of my eye when I was typing this and my first response is enough to drive a guy insane

Its not just high poly cars, it can be a variety of things and I don't know if anyone actually knows what causes the error. I've had it happen before and fix it by simply renaming a misc in the hierarchy or attaching a item to something else. Sometimes a item has to be removed altogether. I would start at the hierarchy and go from there. I (personally) believe it has to do with the hierarchy. First try the easy way - rename your misc to something else, so if its "misc_e" right now then try "misc_k". If that doesn't work then go to the next thing. What I do is remove all the police stuff and test the car, lets say it works, then you add in a small section of parts, export, test. When I say "remove the police stuff" I mean just pull it out of the police.wft hierarchy so it doesn't export with the car. You don't have to redo the entire car piece by piece. If it still works then keep adding sections of parts until it crashes and then you have a good idea of what part could be causing the crash. Then of course you can go part by part once you know the general area and once you know the part you can choose to delete it or attach it elsewhere. Sometimes the only way is to delete it. Thats my method if I don't feel like redoing the entire car which I've known people to do if they can't solve a RC20. I've scrapped entire projects due to the error and not being able to solve it. Did you test the car, it worked and then made some adjustments which led to a RC20? If thats the case try and reverse those adjustments and see if it still works

Possible to have 2 pushbars on one model?
NickieB replied to Black Jesus's topic in Tutorials & Questions
Well depending on how you setup the ELS it could be done. Let say you don't want a traffic advisor, then you could use extra 7, 8 for your pushbars and just setup the ELS ini so that the TA hardly turns on. Then using the trainer you could just apply/delete the pushbar you wanted using the add remove components feature. -
Wow Tom - haven't seen you around in awhile! Or maybe I've just been missing your posts... Anyway that looks really nice, didn't you make a thread for it last time? I think I remember those pictures.

Exits to desktop randomly while playing
NickieB replied to NickieB's topic in Computers, Technology & Gaming
Windows 7 x64 on a desktop so no issues with the mouse. I'm glad I'm not the only one experiencing this. I guess I'll just wait and see if it stops or if someone replies with a solution or idea for a solution. @ Perez - Nope, I haven't touched anything since it worked fine to when it started to do it (besides windows auto updates that the computer did itself). Its only been doing the crash/exit thing for maybe 2-3 weeks. I thought maybe it was just something with GTA but when I was playing FSX the other day it did it for that game too. -
Exits to desktop randomly while playing
NickieB replied to NickieB's topic in Computers, Technology & Gaming
Thats what I thought too but I don't run anything else while I play and I've ended everything via the task manager that isn't critical or that hasn't caused a issue in the past. Its just strange because it exits and I expect there to be a window there with a message or something wants to be updated and theres nothing.... Its annoying especially with GTA IV online because I crash out then because of being on the desktop for to long. -
Lately I've been having this problem with GTA IV and FSX. It will randomly just exit to desktop like i ALT+TAB out but of course I dont. The games are still running fine and can be ALT+TABd back in to but its just annoying when it happens. There are no pop ups or anything to cause it to do it. Sometimes I can play for hours and no issues but other times it will do it twice in 1 minute. Any thoughts as to whats causing this?

Thanks and thanks to everyone else too. Nutt - they are Intersectors but thats besides the point. I left them on there because I used a previous model that had them and just built off of that. I didn't want to delete them because I wasn't sure how they would look. I do agree that they give the car away as a police cruiser since the rest is very stealth. I just like they because it gives some side lighting. I do have IONs in the rear side windows, check out the video and you'll see As for those who asked about a release - it is Kevins scratch made model so I can't release it. These are just teaser pics of a car that I wanted to make for myself for a long time. (I have a thing for very stealth looking slicktop cruisers with normal wheels)

Yea I've thought about that but check out the video and see what you think. I tried to go by what pictures I could find and how it best fit in the car. As for the wheel issue - I noticed they seemed to stick out a little but thats where they were placed and I trust the author completely. I am going to take a quick look at it though just to make sure

I'm surprised too that people from the US are saying they've seen escorts for funerals. Now I"m sure every state is different but here in Wisconsin they don't do that anymore. They use to, because I can remember seeing it when I was young but its been years and years since I've seen one for a funeral. As for what I've seen - there was one occasion about 2 years ago. I was driving on the freeway probably around 12:00 at night and traffic slowly started to slow down. There wasn't much traffic, about what you would expect for midnight. All the sudden I notice 4 Wisconsin Highway Patrol cruisers (all CVPIs) up ahead, lights flashing, and one was in each of the 3 lanes blocking traffic and the fourth was along side the road. They were moving, slowly, probably 25-30 MPH and just kept on driving for a long time. Like a rolling road block. Then all the sudden we approached a construction site and the lanes slowly closed from 3 down to 1 and the troopers broke off as the lanes closed. So I'm assuming they were in the process of closing those lanes for construction and needed to slow traffic down for the time being until they could safely get things closed up. That was pretty cool as I was fairly close to the front so I got to see the cruisers the whole time.
