after spending an hour searching the internet and with trial and error, i've come to a complete loss. 

Would anyone know of how (or link to instructions on how to) add peds to GTA V? I'm looking to add a law enforcement peds (mainly some LSSD SWAT and some others that RDE uses).

Also, I know i could just use RDE but if i'm honest adding a ton of models just to use 5 models seems a bit to excessive so i'm avoiding using the RDE mod itself (apart from using some models from the download/.rpf file) 

Any help will be greatly appreciated! :D 

Use this and add to the Heist peds.meta, change name. props, and voice to what you want (If we ever get access to the original peds.ymt, it can be more refined, but that's still in the future):

and which patchday file would it go into? Rockstar's stupid file sorting/DLC folders get me confused on where things should be added to

Sorry, meant to edit that quickly.

Put in the peds.meta file from the Heist DLC.

And do the ped model files go into a patchday aswell?

Might as well just add them in the Heist rpf files, just to keep them all together.

It works. Thanks for your help! :D 

Would i also need to change anything to make other police recognize the added ped as police? Of is that all fixed up in the meta? 

I plan on adding a LSPD and LSSD SWAT, so i'll need them recognized by police as their own.

The PedType setting in the entry will make them act as cops, so that will be set. You can use SWAT as the type for them so they behave like the original SWAT.
