randomperson139 Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 It would be cool if someone also gave out free to use lightbars and parts. It would be like a starter kit for mod developers. This civil car pack is also intended as that. It provides developers with a set of cars which can be used as traffic or ingame units.I remember there being a few lightbars etc. released to use... I can't check right now, but have a look in the downloads section, I'm sure there's some in there. I do agree though, it would be good if there were more available to use.Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyPI Posted May 14, 2014 Report Share Posted May 14, 2014 The problem with making a lightbar for any use is it must be 100% customizable, meaning it is mapped/skinned to have every cell altered... That type of skin takes up alotta real estate on a skin, so you'd end up with a ton of textures devoted to only lighting on the vehicles. I always just make new parts as-needed, if you have the modeling skills to make a mod, then really most lightbars are either A. Out there already, or B. fairly easy to make yourself in a very short window of time... Same with pushbumpers, spotlights, and other equiptment. Most of it is fairly easy to model fast.

Newfoundking Posted May 14, 2014 Report Share Posted May 14, 2014 Lightbars is my favourite thing to model. I can roll them out like candy. And they generally look better when they're made for a certain model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeyPI Posted May 14, 2014 Report Share Posted May 14, 2014 Sad reality is except for the really unique/unusual lightbar, most of the american standard lightbars are already out there between all the mods out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FInn Rescue 12 Posted May 14, 2014 Report Share Posted May 14, 2014 Looks great about the lightbars Cops Ford Taurus and Bama GMC Ambulance made a great lightbar for their models. Is there anyway to make them into a V30 file for just the lightbar and not the vehicle? A model could bang there out fairly easy I think but someone who has no model experience could be rear tough. Nice work Itctboy on the models again. Raf nice lightbar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice work Itctboy on the models again. Raf nice lightbar.Really simple actually, but Zmod makes everything 15x more difficult. Import the car you want to separate the lightbar. Go to face select mode. Select ----> Quadr and hold RMB and drag around all the vertices you want. Once all selected on the Bottom right click Selected mode till you see it highlighted red. Go to Submesh ---> Detach I think thats what it is in 2.2.6 I'm using 3. Delete the car. Move the lightbar to the center make sure pivot returns to it's original position and export as a v3o.

itchboy Posted May 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 Im not really familiar with American trucks. They all look the same to me. They just get bigger as the number gets higher...F550, 5500, 2500...etc.Google tells me that the 2014 F350 looks like that. I guess its wrong?

Could you maybe make the Dodge 4500? I was going to do another conversion but it would save me loads of time and you could make a civilian version of it!
