Help, I am really REALLY new to LSPDFR and modding my games.

Installed:

GTA 5 v 1.0.1868.1 Steam

RAGE Plugin Hook v 1.74.1261.16020 PUBLIC

Lenny's Mod Loader 03 Build 7356

Arrest Manager 7.11.00Simple CarHUD 4.0.0

Traffic Policer 6.16

ClearTheWayV 1.0.0.35

PoliceSmartRadio 2.0

 

My issue is, I don't know how to properly configure the keys so they work. I can't get anything to work except for the LSPDFR RAGE, ClearTheWay, and the smart radio. Can someone help me get things configured or how to load it to configure them so I can use my keyboard for most of the keys, and my x-box one controller for the 'need while driving' type of interactions.

 

PLEASE HELP ME!!!!

Hi KrystalKleo,

 

Welcome to the community and the fun (somethimes painful) time of keybindings, which is like a game within itself.... I do like you, have the controller set up for driving and the keyboard for on foot, but getting the right key combinations that work for you will be whatever makes sense to you and probably different from others. I also ended up gettting a Stream Deck (usually used for streamers) to set up some quick keys and combinations, for example to control lights, sirens, calling for certain backup, etc.

 

I was sad ehough to set up a spreadsheet - not only to keep track of what version of mods I had installed but also the keybindings for them. Things I use a lot I try to keep without modifiers and options not used much I kept with modifiers (e.g. Ctrl + ) I also have all my menus on the F keys.

 

When you say the keys are not working do you mean you have edited the .ini file for the mod, but the key you specified does not do anything? Do you have any specific examples that people may be able to help you with?

 

Different mods use different ways to code keys, normally they provide a link to somewhere to see the key settings, specific to the code they have written e.g.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.windows.input.key?view=netcore-3.1

 

What I will say is Albo's mods are great but (Traffic Policer, PoliceSmart Radio, Arrest Manager etc) are rather out of date now, (for some poeople they work great and others have problems) and have been replaced by a lot of other mods written by the community. There are some key ones developed by BejoIjo that are on his own website (https://www.bejoijo.com) rather than here you may want to look into.

 

Well, I hope my rambling helps a little but ask away and I am sure I and others will try to help (if we can).

I have no clue how to edit the .ini file, so that may be what I'm doing wrong. I just edited the configuration files. Where do I find these .ini files? When I change the keys in the config files, I go to load it in the game and nothing happens. I've been able to get the radar to work, but that is basically it. I want to be able to do breathalyzers, and such. Also, is there a way to make the citation fee actually mean something? I am also not picky as to what keys do what. I just have found multiple overlaps in keys while nothing did anything.

Hi

 

So each plugin will have a config file, that usually has the extension .ini so when you are editing the config file, it probably is the same file I am on about. they will open in notepad.

 

As I am not using Albo's mods, I may not be the best person to help, but will try. I use Stop the ped for things like brethalizers etc. https://www.bejoijo.com/post/stop-the-ped

As arrest manager / traffic policer / police smart radio  have not been updated in a while. I would advice using these more updated mods with the latest versions of LSPDFR.

 

So, Traffic Policer there is the traffic policer.ini this is the config file you have been editing right?

Are they installed in /plugins/lspdfr/

 

Albo's mods use the folloing keybindings:

https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.keys(v=vs.110).aspx

 

If you have not modified the keybindings, the brethalizer would be Left Shift + O

In the .ini file it would look like this:

 

BreathalyzerKey=O
BreathalyzerModifierKey=LShiftKey

 

What have you tried modifying them to and how does the config file look to you?
