Installation / Usage:

For usage instructions and information of how to use the GF Police and Siren Script please refer to the included documentation and/or example mission.

Place in your mission the files . There is everything included , in the init.sqf and description.ext , to copy paste in your mission .

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/SQF_syntax
Don't try to open this with the simple notepad.

For everything that is with comment // in front or between /*
means that it is disabled , so there is no need to delete the extra lines.

You can open this ex:
with notepad++
https://notepad-plus-plus.org/

and also use the extra pluggins
(this way will be better , it will give also some certain colours to be able to detect ex. problems )

Notes:

This is including a Script to add a Siren to any vehicle you want

and 2 retextures of Greek Police  , Offroad and Hatchback.

It can be used with the editor placed vehicles and also scripted.

Thank you very much Foxhound !

Does it only add a sound or it also adds the light bar?

[JohnKalo 648]

Can you please add light-bars to the vehicles? Not just for the Offroad variant. That way we can have police units without any add-ons. Units that write Police and not Gendamerie.

Oh and adding extra police lights apart from the light-bar would also be really cool. Like the ones add-ons have.

And if you go even further you can create undercover police unit variants with no extra dependency. Simple black SUVs with lights and sirens that is.

Hello there kerozen !

 

The Offroad will be with a lightbar but not the Hatchback .

 

I was trying also to find if this is possible. I will search more though !

 

# I don't know if there is anyone knowing about it , if yes , feel free to inform us !

Thanks !

Hello John !

 

 

Very nice idea ! it is possible yes.

One black texture like : ( if i remember right ! )

-maybe black is already available-

this setObjectTextureGlobal[0,"#(rgb,1,1,1)color(0,0,0,0)"];

attach some #lightpoint

 

and my siren script.

 

I will also add this in the next update !

[JohnKalo 648]

Some progress:

SUV and added lights .

 

[JohnKalo 648]

Nicely done!

Hope the eventual result will be like the real police cars, with the flashing lights at the back and the rear of the car.

[JohnKalo 648]

Really nice work dude!

 

Maybe you can place some lights on the front and back of the vehicles too. Like on their pumpers and such. 

[GEORGE FLOROS GR 4198]

I haven't add more because it's appearing to be too much.

 

This is some  90%

 

Updating :

GF Police and Siren Script v1.1

[JohnKalo 648]

Yep that's true. Have already got plans on how to use this script! In the long run however. I will still be on my essential Arma 3 editing break for a hopefully short while.

In any case, you have just given the game what is was lacking for years. Add-on dependency free police units!

[GEORGE FLOROS GR 4198]

Hello there Guys !

 

I was messing around trying to find a .p3d model for something and i notised that there is a model available for Police lights , but this is for the police boat.

 

Does anyone know if there is available the one from the offroad?

 

This pic is from the boat lights .p3d attached on the hatchback :

 

 

For anyone who wants to check :

_Police_Lights_F_1 = createSimpleObject ["a3\boat_f_gamma\Boat_Civil_01\Police_Lights_F.p3d", [0,0,0]];
_Police_Lights_F_2 = createSimpleObject ["a3\boat_f_gamma\Boat_Civil_01\Police_Lights_F.p3d", [0,0,0]];

_Police_Lights_F_1 attachTo [_this, [-0.10,-1.5,-0.85]];
_Police_Lights_F_2 attachTo [_this, [0.10,-1.5,-0.85]];

Thanks !

[GEORGE FLOROS GR 4198]

The offroad , i think , now  is close enough with the real one , it's not Patriot though !

[JohnKalo 648]

Yep, it looks really nice! Although I have not seen any such police car around. Maybe they have them stored in a garage because spare parts are expensive. Lol 

Not that you can often see police cars in general. They kinda only come to protect politicians. Like a PMC...

[jandrews 115]

so I placed all the code as listed in file to vehicle init but only the skin activates.

Have you test the example mission ?

If you are placing the car with 3d editor you can copy what you want from the ex. mission selecting and ctrl+c ctrl+v paste.

 

try and tell me!

[Viper 2017 5]

How would you change the siren sound to a custom one? I've made the Sounds file and description.ext file with the class name defined, its just not making noise

[GEORGE FLOROS GR 4198]

Hello there Viper 2017 and welcome to Bis Forums !

 

are you using the playSound3D or something different ?

Have you checked also the example by @Jacmac ?

[JohnKalo 648]

^^^And the sound has to be in an .ogg format ^^^

Hello there Lord Whisky and welcome to Bis Forum !

 

It's working in a local server and some scripts are for the server and some for the client , though as i see , i haven't set them to do this , everything is working in the init in the example mission.

 

This should be separate but , to be honest i don't have any time on right now in order to check it.
