Introduction
Recently, I’ve been more annoyed than usual while playing as SAHP or deputy, backup will randomly yell out agency names they don’t match with, mostly shouting "LSPD," breaking my immersion.
When using EUP models, all backup NPCs share the same model (freemode) and use a random voiceset from a random agency. So I had the idea to edit every voiceline where they claimed to be from the LSPD.
Investigating other voicesets, I discovered that even in the trooper and sheriff ones, they sometimes refer to themselves as "sheriff" or "SAPH," while at other lines they suddenly jump over to "Los Santos Police" or just "police" for no reason. Some sheriff and trooper voicesets even call themselves LSPD entirely, and females only have/use the LSPD voiceset (Rockstar, finish your game...). So not even assigning their true voicesets would quickfix this issue. So, I edited those fragments as well, while at the same time it explains the overwhelming amount of LSPD shoutouts.
Also, I expanded the minivoicesets into full. This should ensure more dialogue, as missing lines (like megaphone chase commands) would go unspoken when the game requests them.
Lines that were purely agency-specific (e.g., "This is Los Santos Police!") have been replaced with equivalent lines from other voicesets but with the same or similar voice actor.
Summary (TLDR):
- Quick mod that edits/removes every agency-specific references in the voicelines, All NPCs (Freemode EUP, and even vanilla voicesets) refer to themselves as LSPD at some point, which becomes even more noticeable when inside vehicles. All female voicesets only use LSPD voicelines, even when they represent other agencies. All of this has been edited in this mod.
- With 1.2 "Kifflom" has been replaced with 2 different versions: generic greetings like "Hi" and "Hello" or the "show me some ID" voicelines from GTAIV. You choose which you prefer at the download. Female cops don't have the "show ID" voicelines in GTAIV to transfer from (doesn't exist), so I created them on my own using AI voice.
Particularly useful if you’re roleplaying any agency other than LSPD since it keeps the interactions generic.
(Once someone discovers how to assign specific voicesets to specific NPC agencies, I could revamp the voicesets again to ensure NPCs correctly identify themselves by their assigned agency. Until then, and even so, this mod will ensure that they act generically without causing any FPS loss, unlike using a plugin or script to reasign the voicesets since this is just audio edit).
Examples:
- "Los Santos Police! Stop your car now!" → "Stop your car now!"
- "San Andreas Highway Patrol! Pull your vehicle to the side of the road!" → "Pull your vehicle to the side of the road!"
- "Sheriff, stop or I’m gonna shoot ya!" → "Stop or I’m gonna shoot ya!"
- "This is Los Santos Police!" → "Pull your car over now! Last warning!" (while in vehicle chase, on foot changed accordingly. To avoid duplicity these voicelines are taken from other voicesets with a similar voice actor)
- (New 1.2) "Kifflom" → "Can you show me some ID, please?" or "Greetings" (depends on the version you choose to download)
How to Install:
Place the .awc files into their corresponding .rpf archives under the following path:

If you don’t have these files in your mods folder yet, copy the files from the original paths into your mods folder.:

Then, drop the .awc files into the copied files.
