So this issue is driving me insane.

 

I've reinstalled the game and the mod for the fifth time already, and the problem persists.

 

Every time I try to initiate a traffic stop, the suspect looks for a spot to park like he should. But after that it's where all my problems begins. 
Sometimes the suspect behaves correctly, but the majority of times the takes off like crazy, running over the sidewalk, hitting pedestrians and props. And it's not like he's taking off running from the police. He just drives normally on the side walk and then stops to begin the traffic stop.

But the annoying part starts when I get out of the vehicle to talk to the NPC. One of two things happens:
1. I get the message "You cancelled the traffic stop", even though I didn't touch the Shift Key or the A button on the controller;

2. When I approach the NPC's car window, he simples drives away, as nothing had happpened. I can't even interact with the ped. If I try to perform the traffic stop again, the same problem occurs.

I'm quite frustrated trying to solve this problem and I'm getting nowhere. I've ready reinstalled the game, verified the game files on Steam and so on...
This is happening with vanilla LSPDFR, without any plugins of mods.

My RPH log is attached to this post.

Go to lspdfr - keys and look for the "TRAFFICSTOP_START_Key". Change it to something other than shift and see if it still works.

 

Make sure when you are getting out of your vehicle you don't sprint over to the suspect's vehicle. Just walk instead.

Changed to LControlKey and it didn't work. As I approach driver side window, the suspect still drives off.

It's weird because it's happening with a fresh LSPDFR install, without any other mods. And every time I reinstall the mod, even with a fresh game install, the problem still exists.

Edit: now it's crashing before while off-duty

Do you have a mods folder? If so, rename it to _mods and try doing a traffic stop again. 

Problem solved!

The issue is with ZPatch.asi and GameplayFixes.asi - Both of them are recommended when using a custom config file, but they are not required.

Removing both of them fixes all issues and make the game/mod more stable.

Thanks for the help. Mods can close the thread.
