    Update 1.1 is released, the lightbar glass and the grill light emissives weren't mapped properly, this would have only been noticed when using red and blue light textures.


    I've made a small pack with changed emissive and glass colors for the lightbar. Included are all red, all blue and red/blue lights and glass textures as well as a clear glass texture. If you release any skins for the Ram, feel free to include those textures.

    Both versions have been updated with current expiration stickers:

    I have a few new screenshots, the textures for the lightbar are now complete and I've added an interior console. I've decided not to add the back rack, I'd simply rather work on other things at the moment, I might decide to model one at a later point and release an update after the release.


    Apart from a few texture adjustments for the siren controller, the interior equipment is done:




    Regarding the lightbar, I have good news for some of you: It will be released. It is going to take some more time though, I'd like to use it for another project first. Here're some more pictures, it should be final now:


    Download:


    Old ELS version:






    My current project is an LAFD Utility Ram 2500, using the base model by Kane104. It is inspired by these trucks used by the LAFD. It's not going to be an exact replica, the light pattern for example is more like the LAFD ambulances, other differences are because I'd like to finish this quickly to move on to other projects.


    Some of you might remember the first pictures I posted when I started working on it last year. The RX2700 is a completely new model, all created from scratch, including custom textures. It has been in progress for almost a year, but I managed to complete the model only recently, thanks to reference images and feedback from Kane104 and OfficerFive0. There's still some work left on the lightbar, mostly the texture for the circuit board and a few minor things. An interior console is still in progress and I'll most likely also add a rear rack like the one the real car has.

    To clarify, my Better License Plates mods don't require any carcols modifications, they use the same colors like the default plates. Apart from the retro version with generic expiration stickers, they include modern stickers.


    Lundy's mod includes a custom version of my mod specificly made for his cars, with expiration stickers for 1984/85 and older local and state exempt plates. Other license plate textures are not compatible with Lundy's carcols.

    DLS/non-ELS version:



    ELS version (not recommended, outdated):

    I've been working on a smaller project to get back into modding after quite some time, an unmarked LSPD Dodge Charger. It's based on the unmarked Chargers used by LAPD's Metro Division. It's equipped with an FS Spectralux ILS interior lightbar, a CN SignalMaster traffic advisor and Micropulse LEDs.

    We've installed updates earlier today which have introduced many changes. The most important changes are:

    • A new design with a light and a dark mode. You can switch the styles using the sun/moon icon on the top right corner on desktop or using the menu on mobile devices.
    • YouTube videos can now be posted in our gallery. Note: This feature has been removed, as it was not used by our members.
    • It's now possible to upload a cover photo in your profiles.

    On top of that, we've made improvements to many minor parts of the website. Most noticeable are an improved filebase landing page and a new page for guides.


    If you notice any issues, please post them in our website category. Alternatively, you can also contact us on our Discord server.

    I've finally gotten around to test it myself, here's what I could figure out:

    • Strong glass (ID 122) without any added flags makes the glass break more slowly, but bullets still go through. The same applies when FLAG_HAS_BULLETPROOF_GLASS is used.
    • Strong glass with FLAG_HAS_BULLET_RESISTANT_GLASS adds the changed bullet hole texture and seems to make the glass completely bulletproof. As far as I know in GTA Online it's supposed to break after a specific amount of shots, but I'm not sure if that just doesn't work in Singleplayer or if I'm using a mod that causes this.
    • Bulletproof glass (ID 123) is always completely bulletproof and always shows the default bullet hole texture, no matter what flag is used.


    I'd therefore recommend trying ID 122 with FLAG_HAS_BULLET_RESISTANT_GLASS and see if it works the way you want it to.

    It can't test it currently, but I could imagine that the vehicles.meta flags might be the reason for that. Are you still using the flag FLAG_HAS_BULLET_RESISTANT_GLASS? Alternatively, you could also try the flag FLAG_HAS_BULLETPROOF_GLASS.

    I've moved your post into your other thread, the issue still seems to be the same one.


    I haven't checked it ingame, but I've taken a quick look at your z3d and noticed the most likely cause for your issue: You've set the ID for the side windows in object mode, however it's necessary to set it in polygon mode while all of the collision's polygons are selected. The ID in Object mode is always supposed to be 0 as far as I know. The ID of the polygons is currently still set to 120 for the side windows and 122 for the windshield, that's probably why the windshield is the only glass that's bulletproof.

    The ID is set in ZModeler. You need to select the collision in Polygon mode and set the ID in Properties > General > External State. Recent versions of ZModeler (3.1.5+) also support selecting IDs and attributes from a list:



    Most default armored cars seem to use CAR_GLASS_STRONG (ID 122) however, rather than bulletproof glass. They also have the flag FLAG_HAS_BULLET_RESISTANT_GLASS in the vehicles.meta, but I'm not sure if it's necessary to add it as well, the armored Kuruma for example doesn't have that flag.
