@Reacon Nope, its very odd i could copy the top section of a working .meta and it still have the same error at the stated line.

get the same error with the following, really confused

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<CVehicleModelInfoVariation>
<variationData>
<Item>
<modelName>slamvan</modelName>

After installing several addon vehcles with no issues, i decided to add an unmarked cvpi pack the same way i did before. However i am encountering an xml issue in OpenIV which is throwing up the following error message upon hitting save.

Carvariations just thoriwng up this one - ''The following tags were not closed CVehicleModelInfoVariation.''

Below is the message from the vehicles meta

Ive replaced the files with other back ups and they save fine, but when i copy ant paste the top few lines from the working file i get the same error

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<CVehicleModelInfo__InitDataList>

@a63nt-5m1th
Cracked it! After extracting the oiv i found several carvariation.meta and visualsetting.dat files along with all the other vehicles i accidentally installed. After taking a look i found the fbi2 file and noticed a few of the numbers were off so decided to just find an old back up and replace it in openiv.. hey presto! Nice bright red and blues on the tahoe! (lets hope my other cars still work.. lol)

Thanks for the help, would have given up with out it!

Oh excellent, ill give that a go!

Any clue what file is causing the issue? Other than the vehicle models, im not sure what was included in the OIV

Im now thinking it an OIV package might be the issue.. Ive got a second directory which i use for British mods and recently i installed a car pack which came in the form of an OIV installer.. I have a funny feeling i had the path in openIV set up for my American mods and it ended up there..

I use patchday20 for all my add on vehicles but decided to follow the instillation instructions exactly as suggested, that meaning installing the model into patchday 11. When loading the car in the game, i ended up with a bmw x5 (not a tahoe) and the x5 looked like it was covered in some wrap but on closer inspection its actually the PNG texture files lol.

I have no back up as i was not intending to install the oiv where i did.. oopsie

Ah i see. Right i found the .ymt and removed the fbi2 i placed in the .meta..

I now have head and tail lights but still the emergency lighting is white and the vehicle components flicker (such as the laptop, areal's)

The settings in the ymt file were as followed. The siren works as expected.

<lightSettings value="23"/>
<sirenSettings value="1"/>

Hi all

Relatively new to modding however not had an issue when replacing existing slots before (ie. police, policet, fbi, sheriff etc). Ive used the fbi slot before with no problems, however i downloaded a new unmarked tahoe i like the look if but when i loaded it in the game after installing the vehicle files, updated meta and ELS file, all the emergency lighting on said model is white and some of the components of the car flicker when moving the camera view.

At first i had no lights at all. I noticed fbi2 was missing from carvariations so copied another entry and adjusted it to fbi2, changing the light and siren settings in there. After i did that i had lights! But they were all white, sometimes when looking at them side on i can see hints of blue red and amber but its not right. I have radience V installed and the settings are correct, this is an issue specific to my fbi2 slot.

[i just tried another model for the fbi slot and that is even more messed up, which file is causing the problem?]

I will attach my carvariations file below.

Any help will be appreciated.
