Description
My personal setup. Nobody had been asking for it so I finally decided to upload it. I was tired of looking for one that met this criteria:
- Must be as civilian-looking as possible with minimal police equipment on the outside
- Must have proper alloys, not those pedestrian-looking hubcaps
- Well-optimized so it's not missing dirt textures or LODs
So I made my own. Been playing with it for a while and decided to release it publicly in case anyone wants it.
Notes
- Includes a civilian version so you can play pretend you're really undercover while actual officers out there put their lives on the line so you can sit at home safely roleplaying in GTA. Now when your detective version breaks down during a pursuit like the crap it is, you can jack the civilian version nearby without feeling a pang of guilt! Wreck it all you want, your police chief won't give you a hard time over it.
- The vehicle is highly customizable because you lunatic snobs can't have enough choices to trigger analysis paralysis.
-
Lemme save you some time - the models are locked. Yeah, both of em
Troubleshooting
Q: My cruiser has black windows and when I turn on the lights, they're not visible! I can't stand this, I'm seconds away from arresting my neighbors and executing them point blank!
A: Use the supplied vehicles.meta settings or open up your vehicles.meta, find the model and change the diffuseTint parameter so it looks like this: <diffuseTint value="0x00FFFFFF" />
Q: Dispatch, I ran over a surrendering suspect... again.
A: Use the supplied vehicles.meta settings or open up your vehicles.meta, find the model and change the handlingID parameter so it looks like this: <handlingId>POLICE4</handlingId>
If you use Drive V like me (because let's be honest, GTA V's arcade handling is too bland and insipid and to this day, GTA IV's handling model reigns supreme in the HD universe), I have a lil something for you- a classic select designer deluxe custom specially designed luxury prestige high quality premium gourmet handling line that will ensure you can use your new car without it flipping over at every turn. Just go in your handling.meta file, find "vecCentreOfMassOffset" and change the z value to 0.000000. Yeahhh.... that's it. Alternatively, use the entire handline file to copy and paste the snippet if you're too dense to understand what I just wrote. It'll make the car stable. Well, unless you're hot on the heels of a high-speed vehicle in Vinewood hills where it's susceptible to losing control because of VDrive's nature. But hey, the good news is that because of the realistic physics, the AI will crash into something before you do... probably.
Q: The car has yellow lights but the reflections show up as white? Do I suffer from color blindness?
A: Use the supplied carvariations.meta settings or open up your carvariations.meta, find the model, scroll all the way down to the lightSettings parameter and change it so it looks like this: <lightSettings value="2"/>
Q: My game won't start.
A: You need to double click the launcher.
Q: I don't understand how to install the customization options.
A: Los Santos' finest, everybody. If you don't understand what they are, you don't need them.
