The past couple days I've been trying to find a way to make money on my custom ped in LSPDFR 4.3. After pain staking trail and error, I've actually found a way.

 

Using Character Swap, change your model to Michael, you will still remain as your custom ped but will now be able to make money through other mods. The only mod I've tested so far was simple jobs but it worked. I did this off duty, also tested going on duty and everything worked fine. I'm going to see if the cabs work as well using the enhanced cabs mod and I'll get back on that.

I turned google upside down looking for a way to do this so I hope it helps someone. lol

Happy RPing 🙂

 

 

Edit: I actually did run into a major issue. Trying to change outfits in my car through EUP screwed up my custom ped. So I would only recommend doing this off duty, you can switch back to freemode male or freemode female. I'll keep testing to see if there are anymore issues.

Typo

Follow-up: Enhanced cab mod missions don't pay, but vanilla cabs pay you, so that's awesome. Gas stations from Advanced Fuel Mods actually charge you now too.

 

The only minor issue I have is I now have Michael's breath sfx while sprinting, which I assume is to be expected from changing character meshes.

Final Post on this Topic: I had a CTD while on duty, LSPD crashed. I can no longer start RHP or Vanilla GTA. So I would avoid this, or use at your own risk.

Thanks for trying all this out. It’s helped me out a lot. My ideal scenario is to be able to use all the single player features such as buying properties and cars and playing sports and such while off duty. And funding all this through your job as a cop. Hopefully we can achieve this somehow. I believe it would make the LSPDFR rp experience feel 100x more alive and just enjoyable
