Country Murders v3
This callout-pack has now multiple detective callouts. Each callout has multiple variations, so you can play the callouts again and discover unseen content.

Requirements

A legal copy of GTA V

Expressive (included)
NAudio (included)

Gameplay

Spoiler

Speak to a person by pressing E. The conversation will advance automatically. If your conversation is stuck or too slow for you, press E to continue/skip the dialogue. You can end a conversation by just moving away from a person. Choose a topic by using the number-keys or the keys on your numpad. All of this is adjustable in the .ini file of Country Murders.

When faced with a critical one-time decision, the topic selection will turn orange to alert you. Such decisions arise not only when accusing the murderer but also during suspect interrogations in the new case of Country Murders. You will have three options: Ask, Insinuate, and Accuse. Choosing Ask applies no pressure, while Accuse exerts the most pressure on the suspect. However, be cautious: if you falsely insinuate or accuse suspects too often, they may invoke their right to remain silent.

You missed a line of dialogue? No problem. Just open the Brief section of the GTA pause menu to read what you have missed. Dialogs will be tracked like every other dialog. Most of the topics can also be triggered again, in case you want to read them twice.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions

Spoiler

How many callouts are included?

Three! It will take you roughly 120-180 minutes to complete all three callouts on your first play-through, if you don't skip content. Play each callout multiple times to discover the variations and different outcomes.

Where are the scenes located?

Case 1: at the Sawmill in the forest

Case 2: at the "Vineyard" near the military base

Case 3: in a small village near the ocean (left side of the GTA V map)

Why can I only play one case?

Playing the first case is required in order to unlock case two & three, as a decision from the first case will carry over.

Will Country Murders be translated to other languages?

No. Country Murders is only available in English and will not be translated, due to it's size and complexity. You can configure the display speed of subtitles in the .ini file, if you have trouble reading English.

How to collect evidence?

Open the LSPD:FR menu and select "Inventory". Here you can choose to place an evidence marker. Place such a marker when you are close to a piece of evidence

How to Update?

If you want to keep your progress, make sure you delete the .ini file included in the download. If the .ini file in the download overrides your own .ini file, your progress will be lost!

Installation & Troubleshooting

Spoiler

Installation

Within the Country Murders download, you will find a folder called "Grand Theft Auto V". Copy all the contents of this folder into the main folder of your GTA V installation. If you are asked to replace files, choose YES or Only If Newer.

Good To Know

Country Murders was tested with the default/vanilla LSPDFR.
Third party plugins (like Stop The Ped) might interfere with Country Murders, I can give you no support in that case. Do NOT search anyone with STP, the contraband and items are not related to the Country Murder case.
Controller / Game-pad input is not supported by me for this plugin.
Radio subtitles are not synced with the audio.
Country Murders adds a console command to your game. "CountryMurdersConfig" does restart the config. Will not affect running callouts.

Troubleshooting

Ensure that you have followed the instructions within the ReadMe
Ensure that the callout was installed into your GTA directory
Ensure you have installed all requirements
Ensure that you have at least RageNativeUI 1.9.2+
1. You must install RageNativeUI, it is not included
2. You might have downgraded it by installing a plugin that is bundled with an older version of RageNativeUI

How To: Report a Problem

If you still have problems contact me via private message and attach the RagePluginHook.log. I can't help you without this log file! Ensure to describe your problem in detail and think about adding a screenshot. Let me know what you already have tried to solve the problem.

Very Important

Always attach your RagePluginHook.log when reporting a problem.

Hello, I noticed a small issue with the mod.
When I set the “Radio Volume” option to 0, not only the radio but all sounds in the game are completely muted.
Perhaps it would be better if setting it to 0 only mutes the radio and does not affect other sounds in the game.
I just wanted to let you know about this. Thanks for the mod! but there is no sound in my game
