Real Time Sync Reborn

WARNING : Delete the older version before updating this mod. Preserve your APPID.

INTRODUCTION:

Real Time Sync Reborn is, as its name says, a reborn of a mod originally developed for GTA IV which was intended to synchronize game time to system time. GTA IV version was pretty rudimentary since functions offered by GTA IV in terms of weather and forecast was pretty inexistent. Actually, I completely gave up after a lot of tries. That time is over folks!

Welcome to Real Time Sync Reborn!

  • Time synchronization between the game and your system
  • Weather synchronization between your city (can be set in a configuration file) and your game
  • Weather notifications every 10 minutes via the new notification system introduced in GTA V
  • An ingame menu to setup the mod (arrow keys to navigate, Enter to validate)
  • Crash prevention (because we don’t like when our game crashes)

What are the drawbacks?!

You need to sign up an account (IT’S FREE) on www.openweathermap.org to receive an APPID key in order to get your local weather forecast.

PREREQUISITES:

INSTALLATION:

Spoiler
  1. Put RealTimeSyncReborn.dll, RealTimeSyncReborn folder and its INI file into your Plugins folder
  2. Open your INI file and modify it as you wish

USAGE:

Spoiler

  2. Load your single player story (we don’t like players using mods online)
  3. Press F4 to open your Rage Plugin Hook console
  4. Type loadPlugin RealTimeSyncReborn.dll then press Enter!
  5. Enjoy

I have problems with your mod. It makes patrols so much more realistic.

But... it crashes now even with 0.9 and when you try to type in the console or the police computer then it starts effecting the game.

 

Like if I press "p" on my keyboard in the console then it pauses the game.  Or when I use the "N" interaction menu and use the arrow keys it will pull the phone up and make a smaller window appear.

IMPORTANT POST

The bug caused by the update system is gone with the new version.

explanations : I forgot to code error detection on this code section. Actually, the bug was here just because of Dropbox who decided that the text file you were downloading was generating to much traffic... So they decided to block it.

The first thing I did is to put some error detection on the code so even if you have a similar error (web bases errors like 404, 460 etc), you will be notified in game instead of seeing your game crash.

The second thing is that I decided to put the file on a personal web server... I have to admit that if the traffic generated is too large, I will need to find another solution. Maybe SVN or something like that because I don't want to see my own internet connection be sucked by a lot of upload.

Sorry for the inconveniance.

What do you mean by using the old RageHook Plugin ?

Well  in the old rage plugin when you pressed P  it brought the in game menu up. Now in the newest rage hook plug ins it no longer has the problems that's why im saying your mod is using the old buggy  rage hook plug in.  I don't know how but it is!.

The only problem I can see is that I used the old RPH as reference in my project as my mod doesn't use new functions of it... So I'll upload a new version of it with the new RPH as reference.. That's the only solution I see... By the way, after this, I will be afk for about 2 to 3 weeks due to vacations ;)

i do not have this problem...

you should try to test this mod with LSPDFR without any other mod.

It's definitely your mod. Latest version with LSPDFR, plugin unloaded has no problem. Plugin loaded, problem.

Effects police computer, on-foot radio, RageHook console, and the in game phone. I would like to refer you to this thread,

All of these issues are caused by other modifications.

  • LSPD First Response correctly detects whether or not the on screen keyboard interface is open when processing keybinds.
  • Similarly, all game control actions are deactivated by the game when this interface is open.
  • Any action which does happen as a result of a typing into this interface is caused by other modifications which do not correctly detect input like this.

If you experience problems like this, you should report them to the creator of the modification you are using instead of reporting it as a bug with LSPDFR.  Issues with other modifications are not LSPDFR bugs.

I have a very strange bug report.

With this mod active...it causes some controls on my X1 pad to become unresponsive, or not work properly.

When this mod is active in RAGE, "stealth mode" with L3 click in, no longer works and activating the characters "special ability" with L3 + R3 causes the camera to look behind the characters which it never does by default.

What on earth could be going wrong here? As otherwise, mod works perfectly fine.

Ok... For those who have strange behaviors with my mod and LSPDFR, I have some ideas... As I said, I'm not at home for about 2 or three weeks so I can't really do anything (I'm on my mobile phone during my vacations and I keep tracking your messages guys... So be a little bit comprehensive ;-) )

so as soon as I come back, I will work on this.

If I find a little bit of time, I will try to find a computer and a descent internet connection to try updating my mod but I will not be able to do any kind of testing...

So in the mean time wait? Dang. Fair enough, no worries i'll just remove the mod for now.

You don't have

OpenMenu = NumPad5

in your RealTimeSyncReborn.ini

you should add it under General Settings. As soon as I come back, I will handle this exception in my code.

Hey!

I just want to let you know that this mod is great but there is one small bug with lspdfr. When I open the police computer and start typing, for example if I type r it goes cinematic and if I press o it activates Breathalyzer plugin. I tested it a few time to be sure and when I unplugged your plugin It worked fine.

Hope you could get it fixed!

Never mind, it still doesn't work well with the police computer.

I experience the same issue and I am 200% sure that this is due to this mod since it only happens when I load it and things come back to normal when I unload it.

Basically all keys used by the game are activated when you use them with the RAGE console or other mods asking for your input. For instance if you open the RAGE console and type Repair the P key will open the pause menu and will prevent you from typing the rest of the word till you close it. If you open the LSPDFR interaction menu and use the Up arrow key to navigate this menu it will bring up your phone. If you use the LSPDFR computer to check a plate or a suspect ID and type something with the letter R it will activate the cinematic camera, etc.

Can you please fix this because except for this very annoying flaw, your mod is great.
