Description
"Don't shoot that car!"

Created for a partially colorblind friend who had trouble seeing the alarm cars at night, worse still trying to see them in the daylight.
If you still have trouble seeing cars in the daylight. Aside from firing your gun you can also shove the air or swing a melee. These all make Alarm Cars warning beep and blink their headlights.


Modifies the flashing texture of the alarm cars.
The windows are now considerably easier to see during the day. The static screenshots don't do it much justice though. You'll have to see for yourself.
The headlights and reversing lights now flash as well!

Does not modify the actual alarm car's base texture. The texture is solid white, and the game randomly tints the car shades of red, orange and brown. This is why the 'After' pictures are more brown in the screenshots.
Does not modify Alarm sounds.

This is as bright as I can make them without looking bad. Any brighter and the texture starts to become a solid sheet of white.

Uncertain. This replaces a texture file for the alarm cars, so if custom car mods also replace or remove that texture I can't be positive.

will this work with car mods?

I'd imagine this wouldn't work with mods that retextures the car or changes the model?

That's just the game's unique RNG. Alarm cars (and probably many other other l4d2 cars) are solid white paintjobs, and get tinted various shades whenever they spawn. Easy diverse paintjobs I guess. The 2nd set of images I took it happened to spawn in a darker shade of orange
