If you are a regular user and you feel annoyed by all this different menus you need to bind to different keys, please show support and like this thread or tell everyone that you want less menus and our wet dream may come true. If you want to help the idea even more you can visit the github link below and comment how much you want this ♥ I've noticed this when I first started using LSPDFR plugins ( about half a year ago) and I was sure you we're doing something about it. Now, half a year later still nothing so I want to have it here black on white. The idea is providing functions to add entries to the "Interaction" and "Backup" menu. (Used code examples might not have correct syntax, I just write them out of my head) Why would one need that?: Cause I don't want to buy a keyboard with 500keys and remember each one cause there are way too many. If LSPDFR would suggest devs to use it, most of them would modify their plugins so the amount of needed keys would cut in half at least. For example if someone creates a "Tow Truck" plugin they could call Functions.RegisterBackup(menuPage=backup.page.ADDITIONAL, code=backup.code.THREE, name="Tow Truck", callback=callTowTruckToCurrentPosition()); (I know there already is the CustomBackup plugin. But that's a bypass, not a solution...) If you want to add menu entries for special callouts where you would need them: Functions.RegisterInteraction(menuPage=interaction.page.CURRENTCALLOUT, text="Engage", callback=startEngage(pedAtAimPoint(), callout=callouts.Hostage); Functions.RegisterInteraction(menuPage=interaction.page.GENERAL, text="Binoculars", callback=equipBinoculars()); And when the plugin gets unloaded or crashes all entries registered by the plugin get removed, simple (in my mind :) P.S. Please also add the following items to the interaction menu: Thanks for reading and let's hope this will get implemented soon or G17Media sponsors some Logitech keyboards with 50 G-Keys :P Related Github Issue: https://github.com/LMSDev/LSPDFR-API/issues/15

Can someone post a custombackup.xml to call FDLC?

I also just ran GTA IV Mod assistant from IV Needle. It told me:

So i recently ran out the trial period of Defender Mod and i don't know if this is related to it but i think :o So what happened is basically that i removed all files related to Defender Mod for my GTA IV directory and tried to start the game. It threw me the RNM10 Error and i restarted my system as suggested. Tried again and still the same error. I removed all "write-only" flags on the whole directory with windows and tried it again, still same error. Then i read something about this getting caused by the commandline.txt, i deleted it, used this, wrote the parameters in the steam launch options instead and tried it another time. I even tried to debug it with ollydbg and VS2013 as you see in the screenshots. Now my GTA just stops responding before it even starts. Im going to attach some files in the hope they will help. NOTE: PML Files meant to be opened with ProcMon LaunchGTAIV.PML GTAIV.PML ScriptHookDotNet.log AdvancedHookInit.log loader.log AdvancedHook.log asilog.txt MiniDump.dmp ollydbg.bmp vs2013.bmp

Hey, i didn't played GTA 4 for a long time, but now i returned and decided to go in some lobby to play some LCPDFR. But times changed, in every lobby some1 has Simple Trainer and in every 2nd some1 has a Modloader + several hacks to crash innocent players/hosts. I tried to play IV:MP a long time ago but it was abandoned and i was unable to start the game with it. I do like the idea with servers instead of lobbies but that only works if there are active developers fixing bugs and making cheating uncomfortable. I also gave Citizen:IV a try and its stable but it has rare servers and even more rare players, and it doesn't have a good anti-cheat either. But at least it is working and isn't disabling your GFWL. I made a extra thread about Multiplayer Cheat Protection here.

You all know the problem of Retards trying to crash you in the GTA:IV MP. But there are several ways to protect yourself at least a bit. There are simple ASI Mods like Smart Defense 2 and Hallenberger Multiplayer Crash Protection but they are not effective to all players and are sometimes not working.Then there are Anticheats used by hackers loaded via DLL or in the network archive itself like Freeze Protection and Defender Mod.And last but not least there is Dont Get Tug-ED, a simple replacement of the Tuga boat that is often used to lag/crash innocent players. For me the Defender Mod is the best cause it has a Click-GUI and has really good protections (While i was running it i just got SMPA60 Errors related to my modded Vehicles) the negative point about it is that it is not Freeware (costs 2$ atm.) and it MAY caused my game stopped working after the trial expired! What are you guys using to defend yourself? Im very interested in your opinions.

When are the usage stats going back live?

@LMS you were totally right. The issue with the console was that i am using en-US as windows display language and de-DE as input method. Everytime i start GTA IV it forces to switch to en-US whyever :o But im going to give that its own topic. :3 Also the missplaced markers are half of solved. I zoomed out of the map and found two department markers at the maps border in the Ocean. I teleported to it with the Trainer and voila loading screen plus teleport to police station interior. Everything else worked fine except the car spawning in the ocean and i need to fast tp me on land. O think one of this is the reason: I installed a new Radar that changed several hud.* files I installed two vehicle spawns for south broker and airport. Im going to undo those steps asap to resolve the issue. Thanks to all for the great help. I really wouldn't know what to play when im bored or offline instead of LCPDFR :) Also @LMS i like the usage stats very much :3 Do you think you could enhance it a bit? (More text formatting(lile colors etc.), a "In Singleplayer"/"in Multiplayer" at the end of each entry, a possibilty to watch the stats ingame(in game chat or in your own upper right chat window or in the console)) Also whats the status of the Anti-Crash Client ? Im definitly going to donate the full game price again if this works :3

Hmm thats curious cause the console key ^ works fine. And as i said i also dont see the Ingame markers for the police stations. When i go there where they should be just nothing happens.

What do you think could be the bug? Isn't a newer version always better (like it has everything from the previous version and more)?and why is he saying in the log he needs 4.4 and in the tool it says it needs 4.5 :o Im curious about that cause everything else works just fine. I can even compile .NET Applications wih Visual Studio 2015 :€

Edit: to much offtopic!

Could you tell me who LMS is? A dev? I know about xliveless but its not thaaaat much compatible with LCPDFR:MP :D

Really? If i downgrade to Windows 8.1 again all my Savegames are lost again -.- " Even with the Trainer it takes like 5 hours to get through the story :C

I uninstalled this Version here: and removed the listed versions here: already. Still unaible to install any .NET Framework version!

Maybe i mispelled my problem or you read to fast ^_^ I already tried to install ALL possible versions of .NET Framework from 1.1 to 4.6. The ONLY successfull Installation was 1.1 all others failed with ~"there is a newer version already installed!" The only "maybe possible" solution is that i need an installer that doesnt check for previous or newer versions installed. Thanks for your try to help anyway :)

Hello LCPDFR Community, I have a big problem. As i switched to Windows 10 my LCPDFR stopped working :( I started my game and pressed ALT+P and realized that i can't enter any police station, there isn't even a marker infront of the door. I tried to bypass it by typing "forceduty" in the console but huh?, my console isn't working too :/ So i ran the LCPDFR Diagnostics Tool and it said: '> In the Diagnostics Log file it says: [system dependencies] Failed to find .NET Framework 4.4 I tried to install both, the client profile AND the standalone .NET Framework installer and much others ('>) In "Programs and Features" it only shows: '> And in the windows features window it shows: '> If i try to install some .NET it always shows Using: Windows 10 TP Build 9879 GTA IV: 1.0.7.0 (latest) LCPFR: 1.0c AdvancedHookInit.log AdvancedHook.log ScriptHook.log ScriptHookDotNet.log LCPDFR.log Diagnostics_26.12.2014_4_02_37 AM.log
