so its els or non els? And is this used by LAPD?
Development parts can't be set up for non-ELS or ELS in advance, as the specific setup is always up to the author of a car. However, the current unmodified emissives can cause clipping with non-ELS, this will be fixed in the upcoming update.
Yes, the CN SignalMaster is used by the LAPD in their unmarked cars and the marked FPIUs.
What about back rack?
It's being considered for a future update, but it's not a priority. The next update with the conversion to non-ELS/DLS and the updated RX2700 will most likely not include the back rack.
Merged with your existing thread.
Any plans to do CHP/SAHP in the future, especially the 16' Explorer since you have Kane's base for it?
It's one of many planned projects, but I have no idea if I'll ever find the time to work on it.
Almost ready for release now, there are still a few minor issues that I need to fix, but here are pictures and a video of what's most likely the final version:
Update 1.1: Fixed emissive texture background not being completely transparent.
The showroom categories now display a preview image of the thread instead of the author's avatar. It automatically uses the first attached image of the first post. You can change the order of attached images via drag and drop in the attachments tab to select a different image as the preview image.
We have added new user profile fields for Discord servers, Paypal Donation links and Patreon pages. These links and the links to your website and YouTube channel will be shown next to your files in our filebase and in your showroom threads.
Like the YouTube channel and website fields, these new user profile fields are exempt from our rules regarding advertising and paid mods. You may use these fields to post links to commercial websites, YouTube channels or Discord servers, as long as their content is relevant for the topic of this website.
I love the vehicles. Do you plan on releasing the mdt control screen? If you do release it would it be free or would there be a fee? Keep up the great work!
I plan to release the screen and the keyboard once I'm done with the LAPD-inspired cars I'm working on. All my stuff is always free.
The update of the bot and the channel structure has been successful. The Discord users online list is currently not available, but should return later today. The users online list is available again.
are you still working on this car?
As I've said before, it's on hold:
I've been getting a few questions about the current progress, it's on hold as I've gone back to finish some of my older projects. Kane104 is currently working on an update to further improve his FPIU base model, I'll most likely continue working on the LAPD FPIUs as soon as he's done.
Tomorrow on September 3rd 2020, starting at 9:00 am UTC, we will perform updates to our Discord server and our bot. The maintenance is expected to take less than an hour, while it is ongoing, it will not be possible to join the server.
The update will improve the general reliability of the bot, as it occasionally fails to connect users or post some content. In addition, we will make some slight changes to the channel structure, and add a few new channels, such as separate showroom channels for vehicles, other mods and development resources.
Hello,
if there are still mods being loaded after you've uninstalled and reinstalled the game, you've most likely not deleted your mods folder and the .asi loader (dinput8.dll), plus potentially other script mods. Steam can only remove the original game files when uninstalling. To make absolutely sure that there are no more mods installed, uninstall the game and delete any files that are still in your GTA 5 folder.
Your game crashing after the update is most likely caused by having an outdated gameconfig.xml. A modified gameconfig is required for many mods that add content, such as addon cars, peds or weapons. The gameconfig requires changes for every major update, you'll need to make sure to find one that is compatible with the current version.
i just wish all your cars are none els version
As I've written earlier in this thread, I have started using DLS instead of ELS and therefore my upcoming mods will be set up with non-ELS lights and DLS configs. There may be DLS/non-ELS versions of some of my older mods, some being already in progress (like the unmarked Charger), others being planned (like the BCSO Caprice and the LSFD Ram).
The DLS version will also include a few updates. I've made some improvements to the interior lightbar and the traffic advisor, they look a little bit more realistic and have better and more colorful emissive textures. I've also added the new MDC texture I've made for the FPIUs and Robert's new tire textures.
I'm currently working on a non-ELS/DLS version of the unmarked LSPD Charger, featuring custom realistic light stages and a Smart Controller UI:
DLS is optional and adds additional features to non-ELS cars. When not using DLS, you will only have stage 3 (all lights and siren), like with any other non-ELS car.
Can you name this car police3, please?
There will be instructions in the readme to explain how to change the slot, it's quite easy to do.
ELS please, because most do not know how to install non-els cars since it is quite difficult, ELS helps us to enjoy cars more easily when installing them, DLS may be better but not simple and that takes away points.
The ELS version uses default lights in addition to ELS, it would therefore also require carcols edits. The installation being difficult was my original reason for not doing hybrid setups, but with LML it's now really easy to install mods. ELS lights simply aren't as customizable, I just can't make it as accurate without non-ELS lights. There will be replace and addon versions set up for LML as well as an addon DLC, this way the installation of either version will be made as easy as possible.

when will you launch this car?
There is no ETA, as I've said before, it's currently on hold.
There has been a change of plans: With the release of DLS, I have decided to focus on the non-ELS version. I believe that DLS is much better than ELS, it has a better performance, and if DLS isn't installed, the car still works perfectly, it just won't have lightstages. There have to be some compromises compared to the ELS hybrid, as I'll have to combine a few lights. I'll need to experiment a little bit more, but I'm confident that I'll be able to make it almost as good as the ELS hybrid version.
However, I'm not yet making any final decisions as to whether there will be an ELS version or not.
