GTA5 ELS Lights - Brightness

Post by Georgeharris98 »

Hello. I am trying to work out what parameter causes the different brightness of light being emitted from the ELS lights on the vehicles. An example of 2 cars here clearly shows the one with lots of brightness and the other does not. What parameter is it that is causing this and how do I fix? Thanks in advance

to be honest, I have no idea how these lights system works in game. may be a set of trial and error attempts to grab models from "properly working" mods onto your vehicle, or test your light on a "properly working" model? In general, I assume lights system brightness can be controlled by texture channels and/or in some metadata files.

Also, check the associated material parameters in exported file (via OpenIV ->More Information -> Shaders -> Parameters). Are there significantly different values on some parameters?
