This is a new patch that adds operating brake lights to all 1967 Sports Car Extra mod cars.  AFAIK, this is the first ever patch that provides extra animation to the cars while GPL is running.

The brake lights are activated by the brake button/pedal for the player in the F10 view during training and race; on and offline.

The brake lights are also activated when the car exceeds a specified deceleration rate for the AI during qualification or race and for the player in the replay mode.

You have a choice of how to install the Brake Lights patch.  If you do a manual installation, you must copy each file from the source directory to its respective directory in your SCX installation directory.  Or if you use the installer program, just double click on it and let it do the magic for you.

Read the included notes on how to do a manual or automatic installation.

Thanks to Ginetto and Greg for making the unique brake light textures for each car.  Also, thanks to Axel, Remy, and Stefan who helped with testing the patch.

Enjoy!

Wouldn't the bobblehead patch be the first animation patch, or does that only work in replays?

Can this be applied to other mods easily too? CanAms have brake lights too

Ingenious!

You're right.  The Bobblehead patch was really the first to animate a car object.  The brake lights patch is the first to add a new object and animate it.  

Yes, the CanAms have brake lights too and they are on the To Do list.  However, it's takes a lot of time to edit each car so don't expect it soon as I've got some other projects in front.
