Hey there, fellow officers!

 

Well, it is but a pleasure breaking this news to all of you that our prayers have been answered. There is finally a mod which would allow us to see additional police cars patrolling Liberty City, driven by AI cops. Yes, thats right, by AI cops. I have come across a mod which was originally meant to serve some other purpose, but has been recently released on GTA4Mods.com and a part of it allows Police3, Police4 and PoliceB to spawn in traffic and patrol the entire Liberty City (along with any map mods that support spawning of traffic). Here is the link to the mod:

 

IWL v1.2 (The army comes to Liberty City)

 

Kudos to 5mith, the author of this SDK, for his belated and way overdue christmas present to us LCPDFR players. Now the way you go about installing this is very simple:

- Open up the downloaded mod file with Winrar (if you don't know what that is, you have no right to live) and navigate to folder "without army".

- Drag and drop the police3.vb scriptfile to the "script" folder in your root game directory.

- Next, go to common/data/cargrp.dat and press F3 or Ctrl+F to bring up the finder window. For TLaD & TBoGT, head to their respective folders in the root directory that is X:/Program Files(x86)/EFLC/TLaD/Common/data/ and X:/Program Files(x86)/EFLC/TBoGT/Common/data/ or whatever; you got the point, and do as instructed.

- Type the following hashtag into the finder window you social media addicts: #POPCYCLE_GROUP_COPS

- Now add the line "police3, police4, policeb, avan, apc" without the inverted commas to the line before #POPCYCLE_GROUP_COPS, so that it looks like this:

 

 

IMPORTANT:

• If you have GTA IV, fear not. This thing would still work as long as you have added cars, especially police3, police4, policeb, avan, and apc. If you do not already have them, before downloading and following the above instructions, download and install this or any other similar mod: TBOGT Vehicles To IV 
  I have used this mod with vanilla GTA IV (along with the "TBoGT Vehicles to IV" mod by Bass35) and I can confirm that its working perfectly fine. I have not tested it with EFLC yet, but there is no reason it won't work on it since it is originally made for TBoGT DLC.
   
• If you wish to play only on TLaD, install the above mod same, except for making changes to the stuff in your TLaD directory rather than IV's. It can be a bit tricky for some of you. So if you get stuck, just ask it here and me or someone else with experience is highly likely to help you out.
   
• This is NOT my mod, neither do I claim ownership for it. This is an open source property of the modder '5mith' and any help regarding the mod itself should be directed to him over at GTA4Mods.com and not me. Please read the readme before installing. I shall not be held accountable/responsible for anything you might break during the usage of this mod.

​

Thats all, folks! Enjoy the now more ambient Liberty City.

PS: The PoliceB may take a while to spawn. It is a bit "rare" if I may say so. Took me a good fifteen minutes to search it in the traffic. Well, its kind of my fault too that I had installed an unmarked Crown in there so it got nearly impossible for me to search that needle in the haystack. God, Cj's unmarked cars blend in with traffic so easily.

It sounds great, but on the other hand I don't know if I want even more cop cars to ram into me when I'm in pursuit.

Besides, this mod is not supposed to increase the number of cars while in pursuit. It is for those who prefer realism as in a more diverse set of copcar models patrolling the streets in contrast to stock GTA4 where only 2 models, namely police1 and police2, spawn in traffic. In a city like New York, you would come across marked Explorers, Chargers, Crown Vics, unmarked, MTA, HWY, PCT, traffic enforcement and many other units. This mod can be used to simulate that in the fictional city of Liberty City. Consider it a better alternative of the ALM mod.

I found all 5 versions of this mod on gtagaming: 1.0, 1.1 (added the stockade), 1.2 (added the army), 1.3 (added the DLC weapons) and 1.4 (added the Ghost boat and Buzzard heli)

 

Shame the author didn't reply here, I wanted to ask if this mod is compatible with 1.0.7.0 + ZolikaPatch
