Hey all, I just had a thought that could relate to the PC version of V when it comes out- do the cops in V have static weapon objects on their belts like IV, or are they actual weapon objects that can be used like in Red Dead Redemption? It's a small thing, but it could add to game immersion. Also, are there animations for using the radios in the cop cars? that would make getting callouts in a PD mod for V even better.

I'll tell ya this: The belt acts as a task accessory, a task accessory is an object that the pedestrian will spawn with when the game wants him to spawn with it, there are two versions of the belt in the next peds:

 

s_m_y_sheriff_01

s_m_y_hwaycop_01

s_m_y_cop_01

s_f_y_sheriff_01

s_f_y_cop_01 

 

The first version has a gun, and the second version has an empty holster. TLDR: Yes, they are static object animations. 

Did Rockstar fix the glitch where the belt disappears when the male cops don armour?

 

Cheers.
