"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. The windows have been slightly brightened, as well as the headlights and reversing lights now flash as well.

Modifies:

Modifies the glowing emission textures of the car. May not be compatible with remodels and retextures, however. Does not modify the car's base texture, model, or alarm sound effects.

Conflicts:

Likely not compatible with mods that replace the '95 Sedan with a new model.

Support for other mods:

Extended Alarm Cars (BETA) OR Improved '95 Sedan

To add support to either of these other mods, be sure to subscribe to my mod & the other mod of your choice, then locate this file in your steamapps/common/Left 4 Dead 2/left4dead2/addons folder: 957012745.vpk This is the .vpk for my mod. Extract this .vpk back up one folder, into your 'addons' folder. Manually installed addons always list higher in the Addon list, and being higher in the Addon list will overwrite the glowing texture of the other mods. There will be a conflict warning, this is okay.
