ELS-H

[Dhruv]

Does ELS-H work properly with ELS v5? Cuz I don't see no Halogen_Only option in its .ini

[l3ubba]

No, ELS v6 was the first version to feature ELS-H. Therefore, ELS-H will not work on any previous versions of ELS.

[Dhruv]

Okay thanks.
EDIT: I ditched v5 and got v6.But the problem is I'm new to it and these values as well

Color_Light7L = x
Color_Light8C = x
Color_Light9R = x

These weren't present in v5 so I'm a bit confused.If Offst_SLights is for Hazards,what are these above lines for? Everything except those new three lines is well known to me.

For cars that user only one set of colored lights, like blue or red, use like so.


All Blue

Color_Light7L = 1
Color_Light8C = 2
Color_Light9R = 1


All Red

Color_Light7L = 0
Color_Light8C = 2
Color_Light9R = 0


Blue & Red

Color_Light7L = 0
Color_Light8C = 2
Color_Light9R = 1

But thats what the lines above it do,right? 1R,2R,1L,2L and so on and so forth.What lights' reflections do these ones control? Sorry,I know I might be sounding like a noob.

I don't know exactly what they control, not all cars even have them I assume. But that's the way I use them.

Settings in 1-4 control the main emergency lights. Settings in 7-9 control the hazard lights. For example, I use a CVPI with a Code 3 X2100 lightbar, so here's my settings to have red & blue lights, plus yellow hazard lights:

[ POLICE ]

Active = 1
Halogen_Only = 0
Color_Light1L = 0
Color_Light2L = 0
Color_Light3R = 1
Color_Light4R = 1
Color_Light7L = 3
Color_Light8C = 3
Color_Light9R = 3
Offst_SLights = 0

For another example, if you also use an ambulance that does not have an actual hazard lights bar, but instead has has red hazard lights on the left and right sides of the vehicle, and white hazard lights on the back (center), then you would use this:

[ AMBULANCE ]

Active = 1
Halogen_Only = 0
Color_Light1L = 0
Color_Light2L = 2
Color_Light3R = 2
Color_Light4R = 0
Color_Light7L = 0
Color_Light8C = 2
Color_Light9R = 0
Offst_SLights = 2

"Offset_SLights" is only used when you want to shift the position of the lights. For example, if you have a vehicle mod that is very wide, then you would have to change the offset value so that the reflections look like they are originating from the center of the vehicle, and not from only either one side of it.

Thank you,Forumman.That clears most of my doubts.But lets say I have Bugz 08 Suburban with blue hazard lights on back left and right windows.I hope you know their position.They aren't present in the rear window but the last windows of left and right sides,respectively.To explain it more clearly,see my sig and the window above the text "EXPLOSIVES DETECTION K-9 TEAM".The lights are present there.So,in this case how will I get it to work? Also,v5 had very minimal support for bikes.I have a Police bike which has red lights in rear as hazard lights.How should I tweak the settings?

[cp702]

Just change the reflection color to match the color of the light on the car. You don't really need to worry about offset or anything like that for a Tahoe (they are not very big cars, after all).

But I do,when it comes to my HAZMAT Unit.

EDIT: Okay,so I assume 7L means the 7th reflection controller for Left side.
And similarly,8C will mean 8th controller in the list,but for the center one and 9R will mean 9-Right.I'll go check it in-game.

EDIT2: Okay buddies.I figured that out.Thanks for all the help.It doesn't really support the back windows.But does for the rear ones.Thanks again.
