So, I haven't seen any other posts about this yet, but the latest GTAO update includes 2 new cop-related updates: Loads of liveries for the Stanier cruiser, and a brand new, unreleased (but in the game files), and a new police Gauntlet Hellfire (which I'd guess will have the same nee liveries as the Stanier). Are there plans to make new corrosponding agencies for these new liveries in vanilla LSPDFR (LSIA Police, LS County Police, LSSD Highway Patrol, Port Authority Police, Richman, Grapeseed, Paleto Bay, etc.)?

 

Edit: The new Stanier doesn't replace the existing LSPD one (model name "police"). It is an entirely new model (police5).

Yes, provided no major time blocker or bug appears around this we should support these in the next update. I'll try to make sure LSPDFR supports the new vehicles and livery options and provisionally I've added them to the LSPD agency, but breaking these out to individual agencies might be something left up to the community and individual preferences.

 

Glad to hear they'll be in service! Can't wait to see if R* add any other law enforcement vehicles in future updates. Kinda seems like these are ports from in-progress parts of GTAVI. Maybe we can expect a law enforcement vehicle of the new Vapid SUV in the future as well! 🤞

Due to an unforeseen issue, we will ship the normal compatibility update first, then add support for the new DLC vehicles. Don't worry, this should come very shortly after our compatibility update (it's already there, just a minor fix needed that we didn't want to delay the release for).

Brilliant! It always pleasantly surprises me how excellent, friendly and supporting the LCPDFR staff are! Can't wait to see what the future holds 😃

Does this mean that people can now have police police2 police3 police4 police5 as Active police vehicle?

Also, anyone have a video of those two new cars?

You can already do so by editing GTA5>LSPDFR>data>agency.xml

I made some screenshots so you have an idea about them.

They have both four options for lightbars, several pushbars, and dozens of liveries (Del Perro, Grapeseed, LSIA, ...). Really interesting cars.

The new update seems to have them in the agency.xml already but they don't actually spawn when you go to vehicle selection 🤔

No, I saw that. But I checked out agency.xml regardless. And the vehicles are mentioned there so they should have spawned irrespective of what the changelog says, right?

Without a functioning workaround, MP cars will be automatically despawned by the game. During the testing there have been some issues regarding the spawning of the new dlc cars hence why the feature didn’t make it to the live build. Yes they are already in the agency.xml but will not work until the mentioned update has released (thank you Cyan for providing this information).

Ah thanks! That clears it up. I tried to spawn them via trainers but that didn't work either. One of the authors is saying the same thing about despawning. Has it always been true for all DLC cars? If so, hasn't there been a breakthrough already? they might be using some sort of built-in mechanic to do this as it is due to how many DLCs they churn out. I thought this would've been cracked long ago now.

You're welcome!

Afaik, a trainer like SimpleTrainer prevents MP cars from despawning.

Yes, although a workaround for this has not been relevant to exist in LSPDFR until now.

Because police slots were hitherto untouched by DLCs mostly, right? This is, afaik, the first DLC which has done something law-enforcement vehicles related.

curiously it is possible to load and use the new unmarked police-vehicle

in spawn.list this car is named POLICE4

This is not a new vehicle for singleplayer, which is why it works.

Thanks, but i found some videos on YT with them 😄

This is now available in today's LSPDFR update.

 

Due to a build problem, the agency.xml included is not ideal for full immersion. This will be shortly fixed, but the corrected agency.xml is included here. Place into ./lspdfr/data/agency.xml. Make sure to use the new LSPDFR.ini or set Main.WorkaroundDLCVehicles = true in your existing LSPDFR.ini.

agency.xml

 

Edit: Correct agency.xml is bundled in lspdfr_049_8757_Manual_Install_2.zip and lspdfr_049_8757_setup_2.exe.
