Hey there,

 

I spent the day downloading and extracting everything I needed to get and making sure it was where it goes. Everything was installed and it looks like everything is where the guide said it needed to be. I start the rage plugin, it boots up gta 5 through my steam, and it runs fine. However when I get into the game in story mode, no police departments are marked. I went to the one at the impound and tried to activate it, and got 3 stars immediately. Its like it isn't even there but i followed the directions. Is there something i need complete in game first? or did I just mess something up? I've tried to troubleshoot and I am at a complete loss

To get the actual plugins to load, you need to hold shift while launching rage. A window will pop up, go to settings and check off windowed mode. Then click launch. It should load the plugins. Once your game launches you should have the icons now.

Thanks, but now I have a new problem. I got rage to load the plugins, however it loads lspdfr, says it loaded it, and it immediately has a fatal crash. I've attached a picture of the crash and what my game files for gta, as well as my plugins and lspdfr folders look like

Where is your mods folder?

I don't have one. I never have. And steam says all files are validated when I check for anything missing. I have plugins, but that's it

Ok, so I went through, completely deleted, redownloaded, and reinstalled everything and it seems to work now. Thanks for all the help, i really appreciate it 😃

That will do it, ive done it like 10 times till i got the hang of things.

Yeah, a mods folder is really helpful in those situations, but it's obviously up to you.

Another thing that personally happened to me is when I used the custom loading screen option in the rage menu it crashed my game. So that may have been the problem as well.
