To disable your siren press G.

How does the paint fade have any affect on the siren? How exactly does that work?

It has nothing to do with the siren but is used for the logic. Since there is no “is siren off” flag, one needs to be made (PF less than 0.4) that does not make a noticeable difference on the vehicle.

Hey Apocalyptikz i have a question for you. Do we need to create the .lua files by ourself or not? And if i added it to my server, wich button do we need to press in order to mute the siren. Thanks in advance

5

I just provided the code you need to put in client and server lua files. The default key is G.

6

okay i dont have alot of experience with coding… but this would be awesome for my roleplay group… Any chance anyone can help me out with knowing exactly where to put these lines in so i dont mess anything up.

Thanks a bunch

@grahamgarn okay… my last name is graham… spelt the same… lol… but did you have any success with this?

13

lol. Yep! Great work.

14

Might be an idea to tell what controls would this have?
Maybe add a downloadlink to a complete package?

Just some ideas, great work.

15

Added a download link. Extract the folder to your “resources” directory and add “siren” to your server’s resources.

Anyone else get this strange siren “whoop” when muting your siren. Happens every few seconds but eventually stops. It also does it when entering and exiting your vehicle. It’s the same sound as if you click your siren key really fast twice in a row. Sometimes it does it, sometimes it don’t. I’m thinking I may have another script conflicting with it.
