Hello, I just started trying to play LSPDFR again today since SHV got updated. I have found it be be extremely unstable, I will give a list of issues I am currently experiencing below. 

 

1. The game will crash on startup every other startup, so not everytime, but any time I edit something in the Directory or even OIV it will first crash and then launch the second attempt. 

2. Anytime I edit my DLCList.xml, my Game just crashes every time, meaning, whenever I updated everything and launched back into the game, my DLClist was changed, and when I attempted to but all of my DLC packs back into it (which there aren't that many) it just automatically crashes, it should be noted I do have Heap adjuster, and game config installed. 

3. When in game, the LSPDFR Plugin just crashes, it should be noted that I do have callouts still installed that I need to experiment with removing, as well as some other non-callout mods like Police Menu and Callout Interface. 

4. Since my DLCList.xml seems to be bricked, I am unsure whether my Graphical Overhaul mods are working, mods like Blaine County Traffic Lights, Worldlights, Forest Overhaul, ect.

5. Since LSPDFR tends to spontaneously combust when I load into the game (currently experimenting by disabling loading on startup) it tends to make my character become stuck in place. 

6. When trying to use Police Menu by pressing the default Keybind (Cntrl + N) the sirens on top of my unit will freeze (as they usually do when the mod is working) but no interface pops up. It should be noted that I have installed the latest May 2022 Version of RageNativeUI. 

7. Lastly, because I can't make any changes to my DLCList.xml in OIV, obviously any vehicles outside of my replacement vehicles will not work. 

 

I kind of figured the reintegration after the title update wouldn't be a walk in the park, as it never is, but in order to prevent a full wipe of everything I have installed I'm just throwing this out here. A full reinstall of both GTAV and LSPDFR would be a MASSIVE hassle for me because I live rural and my internet would literally take days, if not a full week, to reinstall GTA V alone. If anyone would like a Log file, which I imagine you would please remind me how to get my hands on the .txt or .log files that are appropriate for this forum Thank you.

Does the game crash on startup when launching normally? If so, sounds like a mods folder issue.

Are you using the 1,5x Peds and 1,5x Traffic gameconfig by F7YO? Some alternatives include the gameconfig by dilapidated found here. Or you can try the one by PNWParks.

Remove Dangerous Callouts and Wilderness Callouts. They have been known to cause issues.

You can always remove the addons that you installed for the time being to test your graphics mods and world enhancers.

Again, this sounds like it is contributed to the mods folder. Please see above.

Try changing the keybind to this. See if that helps. You can change it in the ini file for Police Menu. Unless you mean the default menu that comes with LSPDFR, in which case, it should just be N. The Interaction Menu.

Thanks for the input will try these and get back to you.

Sorry I didn't answer your questions in my initial response was pre-occupied with some IRL stuff lol. But no, in terms of startup, before the Title Update and everything else the game started very smoothly 100% of the time and any crashes I had were minor In-Game ones that were related to certain callouts not working. Now, after installing the new LSPDFR, SHV, and RageNativeUI, it is almost literally 50/50, but the strange part is, as described, It will crash on the initial launch attempt, but if I retry launching right after that, it launches perfectly fine. I have also managed to bypass the crashes/game breaking bugs related to Police Menu by reinstalling Compulite as a temporary place holder until Police menu is patched since no fixes seemed to make it work. 

 

And for Modded traffic/Peds, yes, I am using AI Traffic Fluidity and Discipline, however it seems like that mod may not be functioning either because the AI Traffic seems to be driving erratically as in vanilla GTA, it seems that whenever the title update hit (I was asleep so I couldn't stop it from doing the Update) that everything that was added into the game with an OIV Installer Package was removed, I say this because when I initially got into the game and Loaded EUP Menu, it wasn't functioning because apparently the EUP L&O package wasn't found, so I had to reinstall that package as well which leads me to believe that all of the Graphical Overhaul mods were also removed because most of them were installed using Packaged Installers instead of manually.

Quick update. I have just finished installing 2 things, the new and updated GameConfig that is listed in the Red Header for LSPDFR, and also AI Traffic Discipline. Now it sems that the game is crashing on startup 100% of the time, I'm not exactly sure what broke it but clearly something is wrong. I am going to go ahead and delete the Traffic Discipline mod files from OIV and then carry out a Integrity Verification, if that does not fix the issue then I will be at a loss.

Got it to launch 1 time, then I remember i need to change some Keybindings in LSPDFR.ini so I closed the game, did what I needed in the .ini, closed that and relaunched and now its just crashing on startup. I have done the _mods technique to rule that out and its still persistent, don't know what the issue is know.

Update/Solutions!

 

If you are experiencing some similar things as I was listed above, here is how I managed to fix just about everything that was going wrong. 

 

1. If your game is crashing 100% or 50% of the time, as mine was, delete and renew your mods folder. It is unfortunate that sometimes this is the case required to fix 

some of the problems causing symptoms as these, please note YOU WILL LOSE ALL CARS, and ANYTHING INSTALLED WITH AN OIV PACAKGE INSTALLER!

2. Unfortunately, I am still working out a solution to the DLCList.xml crashes, will post that fix here once found. 

3. Frequent In game crashes were fixed by removing 2 recommended mods, Dangerous Callouts, and Wilderness Callouts, also, when I restarted my Mods folder that seemed to help as well. 

4. Graphical/World Mods, except ReShades, are required to be reinstalled, since the patch wiped or corrupted everything that wasn't a Default Game file in OIV.

5. LSPDFR Crashing on startup was fixed by resetting the Mods folder. 

6. If you were using Police Menu before the Title Update, and now it is broken as mine was, you MUST REINSTALL it entirely, I can confirm after doing so, it works perfectly fine. 

7. As noted, I am currently looking into the Issues with my DLCLIst.xml, my suspicion right now is that all of the vehicle files inside of my DLCPacks were removed/corrupted as well, my next step in troubleshooting will be to remove all of those vehicles, download new ones, and attempt to install those and use them in game, as mentioned before if that is what works then I will post it here as a solution.
