Alright since it's like 1 of the easiest job to change that, I uploaded a beta 2. DL link in first post.

If you turn on the traffic advisors now you can recreate the outer amber light flash pattern, seen in the videos.

Awesome, thank you very much sir. Great work and it looks awesome. This maybe a stupid question, but did this now free up a component or two now? Could you work in a center take down possibly with this configuration? Its by far my favorite car. Thank you and thanks for releasing a quick beta 2. My hat is off to you and that is much appreciated. Thanks.

Oooohhh I noticed something. The rear 0-- -- --0 lights shouldn't come on with the takedowns. Maybe match them up with another componet or take them off the take down component. Traffic stops at night we came have our newly created cool outer flashers. Now I have to keep my takedowns off. In reality I dont think they are attached with the takedowns either. Can that be done?

[Sgt.Kanyo]

Yes I was thinking about implementing the takedowns but unfortunately there's no patterns that make the 2 outer ambers flash, and leave the center on. If I could manage to put the center lights on, I could add takedowns to that but, not possible because of ELS. C-05 has something like Left-center center-right left-center center-right (but at some point they are turned off resulting in, turning the steady burns off, and also not recreating the proper outer light flashing pattern)

[Spitfire7]

Im still pretty happy with what you go so far. Love it!

I just used the beta V2 and I don't like the traffic adviser, if I got this right 0 is light on and - is light off? With that said I think you should do the lights like this, with ELS V6 on pattern C-01 I think it should do that classic -00--00- than ---00--- with the very 2 lights on the end don't light up at all, they should only light up with main primary lights on. That's just my opinion.

That is a great idea, but thats not how this model of car actually looks in real life. I posted some videos in a previous post. You can see all of them there. I couldn't find any evidence or any video of the inner advisor working. The only time I have seen it was for an LAX airport PD. They have pretty much the same car and bar. I think for the older LAPD they just never used the middle advisor and only the 2 outer ambers. Kanyo is going for realism and I agree with going for realism too. ideally we need anther option for ELS. 1, 2, and 3. the 1st would be your traffic stop warning lights, 2 would be full advisor and front red/blue takedowns, and 3 would be full code 3 with everything on.

[Bayareabuggs]

Yeah I agree realism is nice, but I just think it looks kinda odd when your on a pattern like C-01.

[Spitfire7]

yeah you gotta keep it on C-06 or 05, forgot which one at the moment.

[Sgt.Kanyo]

Yeah it's C-06, but like Spitfire said I wanna make the car as close to the real one as possible. What I can do is make the secondary lights like this:

0-- -- --- (extra7) --- 00 --- (extra8) --- -- --0 (extra9)

This way it'd look less odd I guess.
