Lights in multicar mod not working, all with same lights !!!

Hello again, each day, each test, new problem to resolve .

So now it's on the lights (hlglo, blglo ...).

Context:
I have 2 cars in my mod, and each with their own lights

When I test with only one car in the mod folder (in dev mod) all working well.
When I put the two cars, the second car have the lights of the first car

Seems the game loading the hlglo/blglo once and use them for all cars in the mod. Only the limiter lights in rear working well (specific on each car).

I tried with this kind of folder structure :
ModDev\Vehicles\MyMod\Car1
ModDev\Vehicles\MyMod\Car2

And I tried to put the cars in two several separated folder, no change when the two cars are on the track.
ModDev\Vehicles\MyModCar1
ModDev\Vehicles\MyModCar2

No change.

I tried to rename .GMT files on each car to avoid same GMT name, and when I do that, the lights don't work at all on any car of the mod (the GMT name is mandatory to be hlglo_DS.gmt for example and not hlglo_DS_Car1.gmt )

An extract of my .gen files, if you have an idea ??

I resolved this issue.
The reason was that the SeachPath in the .gen files was too large and point on all the .mas for each car. So the .gmt used was the first found by the game and never search another .gmt for the other cars.
I reduced the SearchPath to the only directory of the car (for each car) and now the light used are the right for each car.

Subject can be tagged at Solved.

 

Does this work only with the RAINLIGHT or is this opened for other lights to now?

 

I was for main lights (HLGLO & BSGLO) because they have the same GMT name.

 

What exactly did you do with your mod layout and paths in the gen files to get them working? We are having the same issue with a mod that we are working on with two cars in it. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

 

Im also have the same problem. Please help!
thx

 

In the .gen of the first Car :
SearchPath=<VEHDIR>
SearchPath=<VEHDIR>MYFIRSTCAR
SearchPath=<VEHDIR>MYFIRSTCAR\TEAMS
SearchPath=<VEHDIR>MYFIRSTCAR\MAS

In the .gen of the second Car :
SearchPath=<VEHDIR>
SearchPath=<VEHDIR>MYSECONDCAR
SearchPath=<VEHDIR>MYECONDCAR\TEAMS
SearchPath=<VEHDIR>MYSECONDCAR\MAS
