I am new to GTA V mods. I downloaded lspdfr and i love it. I just downloaded this mod (Prowler Radar). I cant get the radar menu to show up when i push 8 on the keyboard. i think im just doing something wrong cause i am using a base game cop car. which vehicle mods are good with the Radar. 

Answered via Discord 🙂

Thank you for adding map blips with the latest update!

It would be super cool if you could add the frequency sounds radars make as the speed of a vehicle approaches you

I agree it would be cool but nearly impossible I'm afraid.  Playing static sounds is one thing, but dynamically playing or generating sounds based on real-life characteristics of how the radar is bouncing off the cars....  oof.

There is. 🙂 

best thing ever created on lspdfr

Please can you bring back Computer+! You're probably the only one out there right now that can do it! Ironically it still works but it causes some strange things to happen. "opus49, you're my only hope" 🙏

Absolutely love this plugin, great work guys! I didn't see anyone mention it, is there a way to change the threshold speed in game?

Yes in the menu (long press NumPad9)

Nice Update! I'm sure all the people who don't want to lock in the speed manually(what real life cops do) are happy hehe. The only thing I noticed with the update is the distance setting. On the initial release I set it to the max 300 in which it tagged cars quite a ways down the road which is realistic because real police have already clocked you on radar before you even see them. On the most recent update I have the distance setting to the max 300 and I don't get a speed reading until the car is right on me passing by. Maybe it's just me. Perhaps you can look into this when you have some time. Until then I'll continue to enjoy the old version. Thanks!!!

By the way, I made sure the distance setting was saved in the ini file.

Hi.  That part of the code wasn't changed at all for this update, so the functionality for distance should be identical.  If you could possibly get a screenshot of a distant car not showing up on the radar, I'd appreciate it.

No problem at all. I'll give it a few more run throughs. Like I said before it might just be me if you didn't change anything. 

The only thing I installed after installing the prowler radar update was this.............https://www.lcpdfr.com/downloads/gta5mods/datafile/25188-re-roading-project - - - fast-ai-drivers/ Maybe that has something to do with it?

My guess is that the radar is blocked where you are sitting

There is a line-of-sight check and you are sitting behind that guardrail.  That's my guess.

Ok thanks for your assistance. I didn't realize props in the game could block the signal.

Let me know if you reposition to have a clear LOS if you start picking up more distant cars.

Will do! Thanks again

UGH, AMAZING mod! Been wanting this for such a long time! Love IT! XD

One question though, when I'm patrolling the streets, how come we can't have front and rear? as you have to monitor both directions of traffic.

I'm pressing numpad9 but it doesnt show up, I do have numlock on

Edit: I reinstalled now it works

Looks like you were right. Guardrail was in the way of LOS. I repositioned my patrol car and it picks up distant cars just fine. Thanks for your feedback. Excellent mod.

Thank you for letting me know!

Just wondering if you would consider updating it with an audible frequency pitch based on the speed of the vehicle? That would be super cool!

I tried to open this with 7-zip extracted and unextracted and it did not load into the game after typing reloadallplugins. Any help would be appreciated.
