Siren Mastery

SUPPORT IS NO LONGER OFFERED - FEEL FREE TO HELP UPDATE THE CODE

Siren Mastery is now open source. https://github.com/Albo1125/SirenMastery

Siren Mastery is a script modification that allows you to master your siren tones. Toggle to your secondary siren at the press of a key/button, silence your siren using any key/button you like and even control exactly which 'secondary' siren plays! You can be up and running with Siren Mastery within 5 minutes (installation tutorial click HERE).

Requirements - some of these are included (credits go to their appropriate authors):

Albo1125.Common 6.6.4.0 or higher (included)
RAGEPluginHook 0.51 or higher (not included)
NAudio 1.8.0.0 (included)
A legal copy of GTA V (version 1.0.1011.1 or above).

There is also a download to free up unneeded controller bindings so they can be used for Siren Mastery. Get it here.

You can find some new, customised UIs for Siren Mastery in the spoiler below:

Spoiler

Summary of current features (please check documentation carefully too):

Change the Siren Toggle key/button and assign it an optional modifier key/button.
Change the 'lights only' toggle key/button and assign it an optional modifier key/button.
- This works even if your siren is off so you can control whether your siren should play before turning your lights on.
New 'Toggle Secondary Siren' key/button with an optional modifier key/button.
- This allows you to switch to secondary sirens without having to hold down a key/button.
New 'Toggle Bullhorn' key/button with an optional modifier key/button.
- This allows you to keep sounding your bullhorn without having to hold down a key/button.
- Works simultaneously with sirens.
New 'Next Siren' key/button that cycles to the next siren.
- Can optionally include the Off state as a cycle stage.
Your siren now stays on when you leave your vehicle and you don't mute it.
- This can be disabled from the GeneralConfig file.
Determine the siren tone that should be playing.
- You are able to select which siren tone to play, including the ability to differentiate between secondary sirens.
Additional Siren Modes
- Dual Siren Mode.
- Manual Siren Mode.
Additional customisable sirens per vehicle model.
- Allows you to have up to TEN total sirens per vehicle model.
Fully Functional and Customisable UI.
- Feel free to create and release your own custom UI files.
- The size and position of the UI can be customised via the UIConfig file.
Customisable Siren Switching Tones (like Siren Switch Honker).
Sirens are fully customisable per vehicle model via an XML file.
All keybindings are customisable and fully customisable controller support is included.
The vehicles.awc size and length limits are effectively removed while using Siren Mastery, allowing for greater siren variety.
British Users: You can now have British Siren Switch/Toggle sounds (in other words, horns!). Simply replace the relevant files in the Plugins/SirenMastery folder with the ones included in Siren Switch Honker's download.

Support is no longer offered - what to do if you encounter a bug or have problems:

Hey Is there a way to make the UI smaller

Absolutely loving this mod, but is there any way to make it so that when you switch tone and then switch back, the siren starts at the beginning instead of continuing where it left off? sorry if the question is confusing but hopefully you know what i mean.

EDIT: Just found it in the generalconfig, sorry for wasting your time ;)

thanks!

Fixed an issue that caused a crash if in a vehicle without a siren.

Was this issue causing the problem in downtown PD garage when selecting the fighter jet?

Also, whenever I turn the siren again by pressing Q, the siren type is different, like it uses random siren type instead of just primary? Is that supposed to work like that? If so, can I make it to always load the latest siren type that I used or at least primary (or any other that I set up)?

Q will make a random 'primary' siren play.

If you want a specific siren, you can use the 1, 2, 3 etc. keys or whatever you set them to.

" Pressing the 'force siren' button while that siren is active will now switch off your sirens."

The only thing that was missing for me. Now its perfect. I really like the mod, its clean, it works and its simple.

You have, once again, outdone yourself Albo. Keep it up!

Since I can already tell you're amazing at making scripts will you ever make a script that allows AI to use other sirens other than just the wail? :thumbsup:

Great mod, only thing is when I get back in the car after just the lights are on, the siren automatically comes on, which it didn't do it the display video. I haven't changed any defaults either.

Whenever I use this script, when I switch between sirens or try to do manual/airhorn, or even just randomly, the siren will get super super quiet and almost inaudible. I looked at your download instruction video and followed step by step and idk what's wrong?

Is anyone using a PS4 controller successfully with this? Everything works fine with the keyboard, but when I try to use the controller I can only turn the sire on/off with the left joystick. The DPad doesn't do anything. I tried the controller unbinding as well to see if that worked, but the siren controls still don't work. Any ideas?

My buddy Stephen Hawking..... Bro I don't know what I did but I just followed the steps to install this and lost all controller use LOL. It erased the binder keys to my controller but is it any way to get them back so i can still drive and walk with my controller?

If you're talking about Controller Unbinding, a backup file is included in that :)

The game is meant to work with XBox controllers - thus PS4 controllers can't be officially supported by GTAV software. Sorry about that.

I don't know if this has been addressed allready but, when I edit the siren setup or whatever it is that allows me to have different sirens for different cars, it crashes siren mastery, I will try again today but if it doesn't work then I will need some hep, hep meh

~UPDATE~ sirens still do not work in game, only the default, but it does not crash siren mastery just resets it to default says error thrown at line 19 character 5

That means your XML file has a typo/mistake at line 19, character 5. Please check your XML syntax.

Great Mod Albo!! But it is no longer working for me. It was working fine yesterday, and i updated the plugin ans everything, but now when i spawn a car, it sounds the siren toggle and sirenswitch but not the siren. The only other thing i did was update Windows 10, which reset ALOT of my settings. Any ideas on what i should try to get it to work again? I reinstalled it 4-6 times, then gave up.
