[FREE] Emergency Lights & Sirens (ELS)

Emergency Lights & Sirens (ELS)

There are quite a lot of ELS-variants available these days, mostly paid versions; which are often overpriced, lacking in features, badly optimized and don’t bring an immersive feeling to the drawn lights. This script looks to tackle these problems, in a compact and comprehensive way, offering a free open-source alternative for your server to handle vehicle lights and sirens.

Features

  • Vehicle lights and sirens are fully synchronized between players and optimized for performance.
  • Immersive lightning, the emitted lights are drawn in the direction of the light source, creating a realistic feeling.
  • A comprehensive and compact user-interface, indicating the current status of the lights/sirens.
  • Players seated in the front can simultaneously control the vehicle lights/sirens (can also be restricted to only the driver in the configuration).
  • Many configurable options, even if you lack programming knowledge, you are still able to change the most important settings of the script.
  • Fully standalone, can be integrated into any server. Because it is open-source, you always have full control and can add or remove any feature.
  • A debug-mode, which allows you to configure the emergency lights of a vehicle whilst in-game. No need to notoriously configure the positions and directions of a light in the configuration file. The end of the showcase video shows how to fully configure a vehicle.
  • Optimized, the script only physically draws the lights of the closest vehicles (amount can be configured) maintaining low resmon. If ~15 vehicles are closeby, the resmon will only be around 0.23 ms whilst still drawing the lights of the closest 5 vehicles (idle is 0.0 ms).
  • The light intensity (optionally) adapts to the time, increasing emitted light intensity during daytime to make them more noticeable.
  • Hazard and indicator lights are also included and fully synchronized.
  • Supports custom (server-sided) sirens.
  • Supports key-mapping, allowing individual players to customize keybindings.

Hey there, can this system be integrated to any Vehicle, or is there something I need to know about?
I have never had ELS before, so I dont know if there are some cases in which such a system won`t work.

Hi @lukewalker03,

The sirens can be integrated for any vehicle. As for the lights, the vehicle will need to have certain ‘extras’ available to toggle a light on and off (basically components from the vehicle which you can turn off/on). You can use the debug-mode, shown in the end of the showcase video, to see which extras are available for a specific vehicle.

god thats too much, just drop xml files in and make a els resource someone please.

How to use ELS vehicles with XML files?

The script does not use XML files. It is shown at the end of the showcase how vehicle configuration works.

@Juffyz @rpm9000

Here is a resource that offers support for XML files, better optimized & more user friendly

so can u save them with the props so that i can spawn them from the garage with the props on it?

Hi @Chronic_Sevn,

I am not sure what you mean, the ELS script does not do anything related to props.
