Im looking to make a light bar model from scratch to fit one of the fire truck models in em4 . I have no issue creating the lighting systems on em4 editor. I was just wondering if anyone could give me some info on how to create an actual model of a light bar.

Use an existing vehicle as a guide that has what you want on it, many mods have vehicles with functioning directional lights..  There are two formats though, some have them that are "on" all the time and do not redirect, others have ones that are activated by the player and redirect, if you want the latter you would do best to find one that has it within the mod you're using as a base to see how it's set up and replicate the dummies/light settings it has.
