i'd rather have it like that gives it variety

so make a optional one version with everything

then you can have civil and non civil in one

which means you can see a civil one or a maintenance one driving around brings variety

k, it loox pretty nice, the door panels look a bit plain inside. I am using sjakks trainer and I wanted to test both van versions, I put the civi in speedo.wft and maintenance in pony.wft.
I made adjustments necessary, such as only copying "VEH@VAN, VEH@VAN_FO2_FO2,......." etc for pony. The handling is abit *bouncy* too, especially the rear of the civi version. The odd thing is, when I spawn the maintenance version (pony) it seems fine, then I can
spawn into the civi version (speedo) and then if I try to spawn into maintenance (after being in the civi) the trainer freezes and I get some weird graphix issues too ...
I dont have any other non-vanilla cars, nor graphix mods, I did have P3ch1 ENB but since it didnt load right, I replaced all the files w/ originals and the game loaded fine so.. Is anyone else having a problem
spawning from civi version into the maintenance van ?

Livery works separately from the extras, so there's just a little chance to have a clean car with no extras and civil version looks.
Maybe someone doesn't even want the maintenance version.

@Costar
Haven't tried the way you did. Make sure you copy exact handling and vehicle lines. Just change the name Speedo to pony.

Very nice work, it was a much needed mod for IV and I can't believe that we finally have after all this time.
But the one thing that's bothering me about it is the tires, the way the Good Year logo seems to be stretched out doesn't look right. I noticed the same thing on your Impala but I never mentioned anything because I figured it was just with that one car.
Do you know what I'm talking about?

It's the original tire texture, only normal map is in the speedo.wtd. I think I saw higher resolution IV tire texture somehwere. Would be better to change to that.

@Costar

I used maintenance version as speedo and added civilian version as speedo2 and it works great. Some people say that they have problems with civilian version some say that they have problems with maintenance version. I'm confused. Works for me and I don't know what to fix

Can't say.

[RoadRunner71]

At least can you say if it is older or newer car?

I can tell you that NYC bus v2, lincoln town car limo, ambulance, Escalade, Dodge charger and few more are on the w.i.p. but I don't know yet which one is closer to the finish. Could be the bus

[ZBNYNC]

What ambulance? The GMC from Driver: SF?
Is the Charger the NYPD one you posted a few pages back?

No I have something else in mind for the ambulance and yes that's the charger.

Nope it still does it, causes the trainer to freeze when trying to spawn from the civi version into the maintenance.
Doesnt do it when I am in the maintenance van and spawn into the civi, just the other way.
Maybe you can try that chasez and see if it does it for you.

k, you can see it makes for funky graphix too like I said b4



My game (EFLC) is virgin, clean install, only these 2 vans..

savana_sign_1 and savana_sign_2 texture is pretty high resolution. They are 4096x4096. Try to use lower resolution textures

[ZBNYNC]

Guys, all you have to do is take the lower resolution textures and put them in the .wtd file.
It's that easy.

instead of a civil and main ver make it one version with liveries and car components

[Costar]

k Chasez I get what you're saying but I'm not sure its just the textures. I can start the game, spawn into the maintenance version and go cruising just fine and then spawn right into the civi version and go driving BUT IF I try to spawn AGAIN into the maintenance van, the trainer freezes and I get funky graphix. The messed up graphix in that snapshot occurred when I tried spawning into the maintenance van (pony) and the trainer froze...
I just wanted to make clear what I'm experiencing, I can try putting the maintenance van into a diff slot than "pony", to see if it makes any diff, I figured it'd be ok since its a similar van or I can switch textures to see..

[ZBNYNC]

@Costar The maintenance van is a bigger file size because of the HQ textures. What it sounds like is happening is that once you spawn the civilian version, your computer doesn't have enough resources left over to spawn the HQ maintenance van.
Try what chasez said and put in the smaller textures, it really might fix your problem.

[Costar]

Yea, even just putting the medium texture in pretty well fixt that. Maybe you should put those textures in your zip Chasez w/ some instruction about this.
I dunno maybe it is my graphix card going out or ... just have had lots of large file size vehs ingame, like 4+MB just for the wft and didnt have this issue, I mean I've had the whole environment practically disappear - almost the way GTAIV did when R* first released it w/ all those bugs. Anyways, so far the medium textures are working ok on mine. I might even try low texture signs as the signs are not an important detail to me as much as the vehicle itself is.
