Hi,

 

I've read that other people get this problem, which is the taser isn't working.

 

I installed LCPDFR latest version with the installer, but when I try ALT + T (yes, I press it twice) my character just reaches into his coat, and sometimes equips his pistol, sometimes the pistol disappears, but I never get a taser. Is there any way to fix this?

 

EDIT 1: Yes, I have the amb_nailgun.wtd/wdr files in my GTA IV directory.

 

Thanks

Mine just alt tabs

Please ensure you have the Taser model and texture installed.

 

To determine this navigate to your main directory:

Program Files/Rockstar Games/Grand Theft Auto IV

OR

Program Files (x86)/Rockstar Games/Grand Theft Auto IV

(Follow same steps if you installed GTA 4 with Steam)

 

Look for the files:

amb_nailgun.wtd

amb_nailgun.wdr

 

If these files are not installed the Taser is not installed for your game.

Yes, I have those 2 files.

Please Help Taser not working. 

I have lcpdfr and native trainer at the minute. 

When i press alt+P to start lcpdfr then (when on duty) pres alt+T twice it spawns an annihilator, not even the police helicopter which has for some reason been replaced by this helicopter.

Also where should the amb_ files be? In the directory or the .image files? I have seen others with my problem with no offered solutions to it.

Please Help

You need to go into your trainer and disable your keys, either in game or you can go into the trainer.ini in your directory and turn off trainer keys maually. If you turn them off in game, make sure you find the save to file option, they both should be in the options menu of the trainer.

I would say redownload lcpdfr, right click on it and go to properties and make sure next to the read-me check box it doesn't say something like unblock (its a button), if it does obviously unblock. If it doesn't, then just run it as Administration (right click, run as Administrator). Usually if everything but your teaser is working, the installer must have malfunctioned and 99% of the time is fixed with an lcpdfr reinstall.

I just reinstall LCPDFR whenever it does this, so I suggest you reinstall it, I am waiting for LCPDFR 1.0 because it will have less bugs etc.

I agree with sergiygtaiv on waiting for 1.0 to come out because that there will probably be less bugs and other types of problem, but its your choice on waiting.

Would you mind telling me how to get into the trainer.ini? And what key i should disable?

Thanks

The trainer.ini ist located in your GTA:IV main directory. Open it with the notepad  and look for the line "KeybindingsDisabled" (Use CTRL+F to search for it) and change the value from "KeybindingsDisabled=0" to "Keybindings Disabled=1" 

Don't forget to save! That should at least solve the "spawning" problem for you.

A speed camera shows up in the holster along with a black object that is taser shaped. But it still doesn't spawn or load the actual taser. Any clues?

 

i have done it!!!!!!! Just re-installed lcpdfr

Now just to get ELS, Met mod pack, sirens, other vehicles, uniforms and weapons and more ahaha. But thanks for helping me with taser guys much appreciated!

Phew! I just spent several hours trying to work out why the hell I couldn't draw my taser inside the game. No matter what I tried, I kept hitting the key and nothing happened. I kept checking everything and trying new ways around this and in the end I located the final problem. I then thought I might as well make a little check-list for other people who can't get the taser to work. So, if you also have problems getting the taser to work, please go through this check-list carefully.

 

In the following checklist, [GTA4] refers to the root game folder. Example: I run the game through Steam, so my root folder is E:GamesSteamsteamappscommonGrand Theft Auto IVGTAIV. You can recognise your game's root folder by 

• Install LCPDFR using the automatic installer.
• Select everything inside [GTA4] and right-click it. Make sure the "Read only" is unchecked and click "OK". In the next window, make sure it applies to all subfolders and files. This ensures that you can overwrite any files you want.
• Download the manual installer and install LCPDFR again - overwriting all files. This is to make sure you have all the latest data files.
• Run the game diagnostic tool: [GTA4]LCPDFRLCPDFR Diagnostics Tool.exe. Inside the tool, run the "Check your installation" (I usually have to check the checkbox at the bottom before running this in order to point out where the game folder is). If the diagnostic tool doesn't fill up entirely with green bars, something is missing. Clicking an empty bar will provide a solution to your problem. By the way: I run a 64-bit Windows 7, but I still had to use the 32-bit C++ package, so if you need to install this required bit, don't download the file named "x64" but use the file named "x86" instead.
• If you are using the native trainer (if you have no idea what this is, ignore this bit :-)), enter the [GTA4]trainer.ini file and set the KeyBindingsDisabled=1. This is to ensure that the trainer doesn't "steal" the function of your taser key.
• Download the attached ZIP file. The two folders inside this archive have to be extracted into [GTA4]. Make sure you extract the two folders to this exact location, otherwise it won't work. Also make sure that you overwrite all existing files (you will want to back these files up first, so look below for a list of the files that will be replaced). This ensures that all the correct weapon files necessary for the taser to work are in place.

The files that are replaced by the last step are listed below and these should be backed up before you overwrite them:

 

Inside [GTA4]commondata:

• default.dat
• gta.dat
• images.txt

Inside [GTA4]pclcpdfr:

• models.img
• definitions.ide
• WeaponInfo.xml

Inside [GTA4]pcmodelscdimages:

• weapons.img

 

That is a total of 7 files.

• The first three files are the files that make sure that the game starts linking weapon information to the files in [GTA4]pclcpdfr (the next three files) rather than the default weapon files.
• The three files in [GTA4]pclcpdfr are the files that adds the taser to the game and determines its behaviour.
• The last file is the binary file containing the weapon library. It is the game's original weapons.img with the two taser files (lcpdfr_taser.wdr and lcpdfr_taser.wtd) added to it by using the OpenIV editor.

If your taser still doesn't work after all this, I am out of ideas. Sorry, mate.

Anyway, I hope this solves taser problems for everyone. :-)
