Installation

• Drag & Drop the contents of the included GTA5 folder into your GTA V root.

• Important: To avoid conflicts with Policer Advanced, disable the default LSPDFR traffic stop interaction keys.

          Open: Grand Theft Auto V\lspdfr\keys.ini

          TRAFFICSTOP_INTERACT_Key=None
          TRAFFICSTOP_INTERACT_ModifierKey=None
          TRAFFICSTOP_INTERACT_ControllerKey=None
          TRAFFICSTOP_INTERACT_ControllerModifierKey=None

Remember, if you want the K9 model I used, you can grab it here:
German Shepherd / Malinois K9 Dog – LSPDFR

As of 9/12/2025

DO NOT USE Stop The Ped (STP), Policing Redefined (PR) with Policer Advanced. It will conflict with custom stop and ped management logic.

Requirements

• GTA V Legacy or Enhanced

• LSPDFR 0.4.9

• RAGEPluginHook 1.102+ (Read Known Issues Below)

• CommonLibSparky81x 1.0.2 - UPDATED 29/10/2025

Recommended Setup

• Ensure your GTA V and LSPDFR installations are fully updated.

• Use a clean plugin environment before testing new Policer Advanced versions.

Optional Addons

• Ultimate Backup – for enhanced unit variety (optional, not required).

• Vehicle mods – compatible with the ANPR and Seizure systems.

Controls & Access

• On-Foot Ped Interaction Menu: L (near a stopped ped).

• Vehicle Manager: F7 (configurable).

• Traffic Stop Prompt: Approach vehicle → on-screen E prompt (when fully stopped).

(Other actions appear in menus; your existing LSPDFR keys still apply. See ini for key settings) All ini keys are in Plugins\LSPDFR\PolicerAdvanced.ini

How It All Ties Together

• Start a traffic stop, use the menu to ID / cite / warn / arrest. Summonsed citations create court cases with realistic verdict logic and mugshots.

• Use ANPR while patrolling to surface wanted owners, invalid licensing, or stolen/expired vehicles — triggers radio checks and UI alerts automatically.

• On foot, use L-menu to manage peds consistently with vehicle stops (persona + flags unify all systems).

• Vehicle Manager (F7) for quick inspections/tests, and police-only quality-of-life options.

Development Status (Completed Phases)

All core systems through Phase 27 are base complete and are subject to change before release:
Traffic Stop Interaction, Citation + XML, Persona/Flags, Radio, MDT, ANPR, Warnings, Drug & Alcohol Tests, Logging, Symptoms, Dialog, Court, Citation UI, On-Foot, Persona Overrides, Contraband, Ambient Events, Mugshots, Vehicle Manager, Arrest Core, Arrest Reports UI, Felony Stop System, Partner & K9 System, Vehicle Seizure System, Loadout System, Road Management System, BOLO Mission System.

Planned / Upcoming

• Evidence System — Collect, catalog, and store items during searches. Evidence will tie into the MDT for reports and may influence court verdicts.

• XP & Rank Progression — Earn experience for traffic stops, arrests, and completed events. Unlock higher ranks and see your progression in a dedicated pause-menu tab.

• Expanded Radio SFX — More authentic dispatch chatter with randomized audio categories. Existing radio already supports custom .wav playback, and this phase will flesh out a full library.

• AI Backup System — Call in Code 2 and Code 3 backup units during high-risk or combative stops. System will expand into tactical responses and unit variety.

• Coroner System - IN TESTING — Request coroner to remove deceased peds after violent incidents. Ties into realism systems for cleanup and notifications.

Known Issues

MDT Flicker:

Some users may experience flickering of MDT forms when the game is not paused.  
This occurs because GTA V and Gwen both require fibers at the same time.  
Fix: Set `PauseGameOnOpen = true` in the `[MDT]` section of `PolicerAdvanced.ini`.  
High-end PCs may not need this setting.

Tow Trucks Getting Stuck:
Tow trucks may sometimes get stuck or fail to navigate correctly.  
This is a limitation of GTA V AI driving.  
Use the `H` respawn feature to force a tow truck to respawn closer if it cannot reach the target.  

AI Behavior:

Cones and barriers currently do not affect AI navigation.

Vehicle avoidance will be introduced in a future update.

Speed Zone Visuals:

Zones are functional but have no visible ground ring once placed (for performance reasons).
