Update v1.4.0

What’s New

  • ULC config file generator
  • Re-factored most features
  • New method for handling auto repair (now works perfectly for all features!)
  • Fixed various bugs with brake extras
  • Vehicles now automatically sync park patterns with others of the same model (when sync is enabled)
  • Fixed an issue preventing cruise lights from properly disabling when lights are on
  • Buttons will now properly always sort themselves on the UI by key
  • Added various helpful errors and warnings

Notes on auto-repair

I added a new method to disable vehicles automatically repairing when an extra changes.

  • Vehicles do not repair when an extra is changed with ULC
  • Syncs across network (no one else will see your vehicle repair when ULC changes an extra)
  • Manually adding extras with menus still repairs vehicles (this syncs to all clients as well)

I’m very happy with the new system, and it seems to work flawlessly so far!

ulc.lua Config Generator

The new ulc.lua generator allows you to quickly and easily generate ulc.lua files without the risk of syntax errors!

Colored Buttons

Buttons can now have a color field!
Currently available colors:

  • Green
  • Blue
  • Amber
  • Red

Config Change

Stage buttons will now accept a color field.

{label = 'STAGE 2', key = 5, extra = 8, color = 'green', linkedExtras = {}, oppositeExtras = {}, offExtras = {9}, repair = false},

This is not mandatory. You do not need to update your existing configs unless you want to use this feature.

Repair Force for Stages

Stage buttons can now be set to repair the vehicle when toggled. This is important for any extras that are high-poly or have collisions. The ideal way to deal with this is to not include collisions in your lighting extras, but in the case that you have them, setting repair to true will resolve this.

These stages cannot be changed while the vehicle is damaged or while a door is open.

Config Change

Stage buttons will now accept a repair field.

{label = 'STAGE 2', key = 5, extra = 8, color = 'green', linkedExtras = {}, oppositeExtras = {}, offExtras = {9}, repair = false},

This is not mandatory. You do not need to update your existing configs unless you want to use this feature.

Update v1.6.1

What’s New

  • Added door extras!
  • Fixed an issue where HUD would always be disabled the first time a client loads the resource
  • Added a 2 second delay to park patterns
  • Fixed an issue where park pattern sync would enable sirens on cars which did not already have them on
  • Added a prompt to use /ulc on the first load of the resource.

Door extras

ulc.lua configs can now accept door extras!

Door extras can enable or disable an extra while doors or the trunk are open.

Config Change

doorConfig = {
    useDoors = false
    driverSide = {enable = {}, disable = {}},
    passSide = {enable = {}, disable = {}},
    trunk = {enable ={}, disable = {}}
},

This is not mandatory. You do not need to update your existing configs unless you want to use this feature.

planing to make els version?

26

No, the whole point of this is to bring ELS functionality to Non-ELS :smiley:

27

sorry for the question but since it requires extras as lights to work, will this work with els vehicles?

28

No, this is to make Non-ELS work like ELS.

29

ah alright thanks

32

Sorry I am a bit confused. So if my vehicle doesn’t have extra’s for lights (enabling extras enables certain lights) the ULC system would not work for me?

If so then is there any possible way to make my vehicles work with this system (such as editing something in the vehicle) or not?

33

Correct the script is based on toggling extras. If the extras aren’t there it can’t interact with them.

This is not a new thing though people have made vehicles like this for a long time.

34

Can you all add support for modkits?

35

I did consider it but I don’t really know how they work. If someone would like to help with it I would be down to add it though!

36

are there any known car packs using this with light setups configured?

37

This sort of use of extras has been a thing for a while now. I remember using a pack more than 4 years ago that would have worked great with this, they might just be tough to find.

There are a few packs and vehicles posted in the Discord server as well that are newer.

Disable extras on brake

Config Change

    useBrakes = false,
    speedThreshold = 3,
    brakeExtras = {},
    disableExtras = {}
