    Mod seems perfectly well after the 23.0 update. BUT, expect a little update. The flares have gone under some changes for every vehicle and I will have to get these replaced with up to date flares. :)

    Lighting looks 100 times better as well!

    So currently about to release v14. Here is one thing you might not like. I have made the decision to remove the D-Series lighting setup because the whole rework of it will be more of a long term thing, and I want to release this tonight because there is a lot of experimental things in it that I need to see that it works for other people and if it does then the D-Series stuff can get release sooner so sorry for removing it for now. Also, the Traffic Advisor will not be added to this update.

    Many other things will be added but you guys can look at the v14 changelog once it is on the repo.

    Really enjoy this mod and the direction it goes! Many thanks for your time and effort. Just one small oversight perhaps. On the Roamer, since the wig wags are now separate parts, they also come on when the lightbar is in Cruise mode. Probably something that would normally not be so.

    Well, I have programmed the lights to come on and wigwag when the lightbar is on. That’s the only way that worked for me but I will take a look at it. Thanks!

    Hey, quick question and anyone is free to answer. On the Roamer, how do you remove the LED's on the tail gate? Not the plate LED's, but the ones that run along the back windshield. I'd like to know, as I can't figure it out. Thanks!

    So all you have to do is just click on the part in the vehicle sector and click empty for the plate leds. And with the rear window leds - it depends if you are trying to remove them on the uncover set up or the lightbar set up. On the uncover you are unable to remove them as they are the essentially the “main lightbar” and on the lightbar set up I think you can also find the part and just click on it and click empty like the plate leds.

    Either my game gave out or this mod is broken.. I installed the mod this second and it isn't showing anything. It took a really short time to download, but this usually takes 30-60 seconds to download. It doesn't show any of the options on the config menu. Please help me.

    This mod is not broken as it’s updated almost regularly and throughly tested after every game update. Secondly, it does not have configs at the moment but they’re being worked on. Lastly the download time is your internet, not my mod(My mod takes approximately 1 second to download via Chrome) and does not withhold the authority and power to slowdown internet.

    Steps to Fix:
    -Clear cache and Verify Game Files.
    -Make sure you do not have any previous versions downloaded.
    -Make sure your game is updated.

    If that doesn’t solve your issue:
    -Make sure you are choosing the correct parts (refer to the mod’s repo page which has directions).
    -Uninstall the mod and re-download.

    Alright so you guys are probably wondering where have I been. I took a bit of a break with modding because classes are starting again and I need to prepare for that but I might be able to release a update this month. If I don’t release an update this month I won’t for several months due to class.

    Anyway, I found out just now a big(ish) YouTuber uses my mod which was pretty crazy and definitely taking in the feedback from the comments:

    Dunno if I'm a moron, but can't seem to get he updated version 14.0.6 working. I've done cache clear, and deep cache clear and even safe mode with just this mod, but it seems to stay on the previous version. I have no configs and the lights are still bright, but it says I have 14.0.6 installed. All parts etc act like its version 14.0.5. Anyone else have that problem?

    Is it just the configs not showing up?

    Yes, configs don't show up. But the lights seem very bright still and you mentioned turning them down. Any other changes I can look for to see if it is indeed the new version?

    Hey apologies for the late response. I thought I replied to this but I didn’t. The configs seem to be working for others but I’ll investigate it further. The lowering of the brightness thing I was referring to in the changelogs isn’t the light effects - I lowered the brightness of the light sources which are at the lightbar so it isn’t so intensive during the night and day.

    No probs. My mod still works fine otherwise, maybe it will be sorted in a next update. The GM looks great!! Just wondered, should the wigwags not be on the high beams like the Roamer, instead of low beams. But this looks great especially with some dark tint!
