ELM discontinuation

Post by Mmartin » Thu May 14, 2015 7:25 pm

Hello,

with the new updates in Revision 5.4.151, namely the support for audible and visible sirens for all legal faction vehicles, the Emergency Light Mod (ELM) is no longer allowed to be used. Please remove the modification if you have it installed as soon as possible.

This is in effect immediately, however the staff team will allow an appropriate period of time to adjust to the change. Any questions or concerns can be directed to me personally through a private message.

Regards,
LS-RP Staff Team

There seems to be a lot of confusion regarding the topic, allow me to clarify:
  • The ELM was removed because it was inefficient towards server's resources. The modification sends a lot of updates to the server over short period of time which are then later synced with everyone that's near. As you know we're working on expanding our slots for the summer and this was a sacrifice we had to give up.
  • The recent update doesn't simulate what ELM did, it's not a replacement but rather a compensation; something new to work with. Although removing ELM was planned for a long while, we didn't want to do it without implementing something in return.
Thank you for understanding.
