and Reference – Luxart 4 Sec. 1 – Emergency Lighting System overview 1.01 – DISCLAIMER The Luxart Emergency Lighting System (ELS) is freeware and may not be exploited for personal, financial or commercial gain. ELS is provided without any form of warranty. Therefore, responsibility for any damages caused by this product or its misuse rest solely with the user, as the author will accept no liability. Redistribution of this product is authorized unless instructed otherwise by the author. However, the following condition(s) must be met: the contents of the archive containing this document and the product (ELS.asi file and its dependents) must not be modified or tampered with; this document must remain in its original state and must not be modified in any way; this document must be provided alongside the product; and all proper credits must be clearly indicated and respected. 1.02 – INTRODUCTION The Luxart Emergency Lighting System (ELS) is a modification for the PC platform version of the game Grand Theft Auto IV (GTAIV) by Rockstar Games. ELS is a “.ASI” script modification meant to alter the behavior of the game. Its purpose is to provide emergency lighting and audio effects for vehicle models specifically configured to make use of ELS’s features (pro-ELS models). 1.03 – CREDITS AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS (ELS V8.0) ELS is coded by Lt.Caine using the C++ ScriptHook development toolkit by Aru. The default ELS configuration files, Luxart ELS documentation materials, and ELS User Guide and Reference are authored by Lt.Caine. Many ELS V8 features are the result of a collaborative effort between Luxart Systems and the G17 Media team, using the powerful AdvancedHook Library System created by LMS. As such, ELS features code contributions from the following people:  LMS  Sam Furthermore, to underscore their invaluable participation in the ELS project, the contributions and assistance of the following people must be acknowledged:  LMS, for his powerful AdvancedHook, the amazing features of which (including the vehicle damage enablement system) ELS depends upon, in addition to his valued assistance with AdvancedHook, numerous contributions to the ELS code, his persistence with regard to the vehicle damage issue, and his very generous and invaluable work pertaining to ELS debugging and crash prevention;  Sam, for his valued assistance and contributions to the ELS code, his powerful and professional public relations skills and work on behalf of ELS, as well as his persistent desire to lend a helping hand;  PoliceWag, for his expert feedback, suggestions, and extremely dedicated help and patience, particularly in testing MP compatibility—he is the inspiration and motivation for ELS’ online features, and he worked tirelessly to ensure that these were up to standard;  BxBugs123, for his dedicated help, feedback, and constant innovation with regard to ELS vehicle models.  NicolaiB, for his unrelenting help and support throughout the testing process and, of course, for his awesome videos;  Break, for his advice regarding German lighting patterns, his countless suggestions, and his instrumental assistance in weeding out issues;  cp702, for his valued assistance in weeding out issues and, without whose persistence, ELS would not have supported added vehicle slots;  Aru, AlexanderBlade, and HazardX, without whom coding for GTAIV would be impossible; and,  the ELS users, who ultimately provide the motivation necessary to take upon such endeavors. The ELS testing team consisted of (in alphabetical order, except lead): PoliceWag (lead), bosco154, Break, BxBugs123, cp702, James, kjel0112, Mag292, NicolaiB, Sam, SnH FireFighter, UndercoverChicken, and VooDoobie. The releases of ELS version 7 and subsequent iterations are in large part attributable to their invaluable feedback, suggestions, support, friendship, and above all, dedication. 1.04 – OPERATION AND LIMITATIONS ELS makes use of the vehicle components available to GTAIV vehicle models (also commonly referred to as “extras”). By toggling these parts on pro- ELS models in various sequences, ELS simulates emergency lighting patterns. Thus, ELS must be used in conjunction with pro-ELS vehicle models. Non- ELS models (or vehicle models not specifically configured to make use of the ELS features), such as the default GTAIV vehicle models, are to be considered incompatible with ELS. Due to uncontrollable elements native to GTAIV, ELS is not without its limitations. For instance, though measures have been taken to reduce its impact on performance, particularly users with less-optimal PC configurations may notice a negative effect in this area as a result of using ELS. Users will also ELS User Guide and Reference – Luxart 5 notice that ELS lights cannot sustain damage. This is a direct result of the inner-workings of GTAIV and, regretfully, is an issue for which a solution has yet to be discovered. Furthermore, due both to the way ELS is forced to operate and the unstable nature of GTAIV—and though extensive work has been done to prevent them—game crashes are likely to occur; particularly in multiplayer or when enabling ELS on vehicle models often used by the game AI. A user’s PC configuration and other game modifications may further impact game stability. Finally, ELS is primarily intended for use within the single player mode of GTAIV. Thus some ELS features in multiplayer are altered or limited, and may not synchronize with other players. 1.05 – REQUIREMENTS ELS requires the following elements (in addition to the provided files) in order to operate:  A working PC-platform copy of the game GTAIV (or its EFLC DLC) updated to the latest patch;  the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (found here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/download/details.aspx?id=5555);  the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012 Update 4 (found here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/download/details.aspx?id=30679); and,  the presence of pro-ELS vehicle models to make adequate use of the system—such vehicles may be downloaded from the websites www.lcpdfr.com and www.gtapolicemods.com. 1.06 – INSTALLATION Installing ELS may be done in a few easy steps:  Completely uninstall any existing version of ELS;  Place the ELS.asi, the ELS folder, and the AdvancedHook.dll into your main GTAIV game directory (this is the same folder that houses the gtaiv.exe file);  unless you already possess the following files and they are more recent than the ones provided, place the dsound.dll and ScriptHook.dll files into your main GTAIV game directory;  if you do not already have any, download and install pro-ELS vehicle models to use with ELS;  (update any existing vehicle configurations files you may have to the latest ELS version standard, as older VCFs may be incompatible with new ELS versions);  open, configure the ELS.ini file and the ELS vehicle configuration file(s) from the ELS folder to suit your needs, save them; and,  launch your game.
