Nice looks really cool, but to me (don't shoot me down) seems to over the top, I've seen very few cars with such intense lights, and they're usually for the big cities like NYC or LA perhaps not so much Surrey.

For my $0.02 I'd suggest making them a little more simple, sure for units like Swat and Bomb squad go ape, but for the sake of realism and people's PCs haha I'd suggest more along the lines of these..



Just thought I'd throw that out there cos the mod looks sweet and the lights do too, but it looked like the lights were running away with themselves.

Very nice job on the lights.

[C.F.D]

Nothing unrealistic about the lights, Dyson. They all are in fact based on actual light packages layout. The videos that you attached had been done already. No offense but maybe You're just not really used to see such thing in real life. Western Canada usually has over-board lighting for most agencies, And for the PC performance of others? Well, not our problem we're going for as real as it can be benchmark.

The LAPD recently unvield their newest patrol vehicle. Lots and lots of lights, more than the LAPD have used prior. Check it out sometimes, Dyson. Take care.

Good job Todd.

I just fall in love when I saw you turn the lights on, it must be the way you light!!!
(hihi Taylor swift - Today was a fairytale)

I really like it!

Love the lights. And lots of lights do help when there's a lot of snow and stuff, like there is in Canada.

Especially on highways. That is why most of the RCMP newer fleets have been equipped with 360 exterior and interior LED products for the best visibility and weather resistant. They even switched out the workhorse corner strobes with LED hide-a-ways. It's crazy.

This is pretty much the standard for RCMP umpc's in the lower mainland area.Any differences will be the inside lightbar,most will have the side by side or a three light bar.The inner edge lightbar is rare site but still accurate.
All lights are 100% accurate and based on real life units.

Some detachments are even more extreme (Squamish) with lighting packages,but they patrol the dangerous Sea to Sky highway were visibility is paramount. EDIT-our gen duty Tahoe will not be this intense.

In-case if anybody is wondering after watching the videos, yes we made a identical ghost unit of the first video. We also have a similar unit made, but it is a supervisor slicktop and it pretty much has the same package except for the visor LED. You can check it out on my YouTube playlist, it's at 0:38 -

[ausavin26]

I'm guessing there will be a supervisor? What different controls will He have ( if there is one )

[C.F.D]

A supervisor will be able to request any kind of resources, whereas constables will be given limited resources. Your supervisor can also act as a hostage negotiator if your ERT crew hasn't arrive on scene yet.

[Wkboy714]

How will the dispatch system work? Will it be similar to original EM4, with side-menus spawning vehicles, or more like (for example) Winterberg where vehicles are dispatched/called by script?

[fireballthefiredog]

Okay, just wondering, what are the black domes on top of all of the cop cars?

[C.F.D]

CB Radio/GPS discs. Same thing like car antenna sticks but in a different form, specifically for Emergency First Responders technology.

EDIT-too slow on the button,beaten again lol...

[ausavin26]

Quick question. What's the estimated mod loading time O_o

[askjeeves]

Aww come on Goog, you mean you don't want to have the mobile christmas tree on the map at all times? You could make the Tahoe look like this and then give just every other unit it's lights as if it were a civi car, cause I doubt many graphics cards could handle that much at once.

For lighting, can you guys put lights on the side of pushbars plz? It's something I've always wanted for my cruisers and trucks, but haven't had time/knowledge or patience to attempt it.

cheerio chaps

Are you talking about LEDs mounted on the pushbar? If so, we have added them on te majority of the police units. Some will just have two forward LEDs, while others will have both forward AND side mounted LEDs. I think two, if not three different units will have side wheel bumper LEDs as aforementioned.

Here are some videos to show you what we did
