ELS disableds the Horn button but you could use Traffic Policer which includes a Traffic Stop Mimic option.
 
Traffic Policer by Albo:  https://www.lcpdfr.com/downloads/gta5mods/scripts/8303-traffic-policer-breathalyzer-traffic-offences-speed-detection-more/ 

Yep! Created a way to receive game updates through a server that can be installed onto the computer that is running GTA. The server is connected to the ReportsPlus application across your network and transfers files to the client with ped data/vehicle data etc.
 
Currently, I have created a way for callouts to be displayed within the application as well as when you ask a ped for their ID with StopThePed the ID is actually transferred to the application.
 
I have also added a ped lookup feature and plate lookup feature.
 
All of the report creation windows are external now since I made the log browser embedded in the main window instead of an external window. Not sure yet how I feel about the external report windows but it may look better with a different color pallet. 
Great idea, I am surprised that I hadn't even thought of this.
 
 

Hi All,
 
Wow has it been a while...  What have I been doing?  Well, I've been hard at work making a FiveM emergency modification (can be seen used by KUFFS gaming).  That was super fun and interesting - having to sync multiplayer is a challenge, but pretty darn cool.
 
But that's not why we're here, is it?
 
I'm excited to announce that LS Noir (LSN) will be coming back.  I've been out of the scene for a while, but I regularly get messages asking for LSN to return.  And it's about time we get it working again.
 
So, I have some things to show that are still in development.  But, I am truly working on them and I expect a release soontm.
 
Case Management
First - one of the major challenges of the original LSN was the data structure.  LtFlash was the main designer of this and did an AMAZING job.  The problem is creating a new case; it is so much work and excel files to manually create.  Something not for the general public.  This was difficult to overcome as any case creator program had to support eight different file types, each with different components.
 
To combat this, when I got back into the development of LSN a couple months ago I set out to make a case creator first.  This required a rework of the case structure.  You can find a link to a case flowchart here (be warned - it's a little complex).  Now all information for each stage ("level") of a case is stored using JSON in a "Stage" class.  This allows a simple case creator program to be made.  It's important to note, I'm not a professional - so my GUI is probably not great.  It's better than manually editing a json or XML though, so...
 
 
This case creator will allow you, the community, to create cases.  They can be two stages or twenty.  It's all up to you.  And the benefit of the new format - all items required for a stage are present inside the Stage class.  That also makes implementation much easier on the backend.
 
Implementation
The implementation of this new separate CaseManager is ongoing.  The entire modification needs to be rewritten for a few reasons.
 Outdated references - the modification uses two main commons, Fiskey111Common and LtFlash common.  Both of these are no longer maintained, so these need to be implemented locally. Updated case structure - with the old LSN, there were nine different data types (CaseData, ScenesData, StagesData, ReportsData, EvidenceData, PedData, DialogData, and more).  These files were single files with all data pertaining to that data type - so stage 1 (ex: CSI) is contained in the same ScenesData file as stage 5 (ex: suspect raid).  Not horrible, but difficult to maintain as there are many different components to ensure are completed.  Now, with the Stage class everything for a stage is contained inside the one class.  This makes referencing items easier, as referencing items for evidence requests can simply reference a stage ID which parses all evidence collected rather than each individual evidence ID. Computer - the case computer is pretty cool, in my opinion.  I think that being able to access case data in a GUI format is fun, and will allow for extra features in the future.  However, being honest - GWEN (the windows forms program included in RPH) is not great.  However, I'm not interested in converting to RageNativeUI, so for now, GWEN stays.  This should be fine - the computer isn't used too much.  But we'll see where the road takes us as things progress.  
Timeline
This is the biggest question.  The case manager software is complete (enough) for use.  It's not perfect, but it works and does make creating a case easier.  There are some creature comforts I need to add, but those are on the backburner.  I'm currently working on implementing the new case structure into the existing modification.  As mentioned before, this requires a lot of work to implement and update old, depreciated features.
 
My estimation is a couple months.  But, who knows - life is crazy.  I've been trying to work on it at least 3 nights a week.  It will also depend how things end up working out - perhaps the rewrite of the case structure isn't ideal for some situations and needs to be edited.  Those are things playtesting and creators will most likely discover.
 
I appreciate the communities understanding, and I'm excited to be able to provide a positive update as I truly love the idea of a detective modification - and I think LSPDFR really needs a good one.
 
I'll post additional updates as I get additional features implemented.
 
Stay safe!

this sounds a little bit disrespectful, the update will come out when he got time for it. There is no relase date...

I've not had a chance to test this, but based on the troubleshooting everyone else has done I'm assuming it's an LSPDFR bug. Perhaps something has been changed or deleted around apartments or maybe a hook or pattern has failed.
 
I'm not too familiar with the apartment system, so even if I have a chance to look at this I'm unlikely to fix it quickly.
With the festive season there is probably going to be a delay around fixing this if it's an LSPDFR bug. I can only speak for myself but I will have probably no free time in the coming days, the situation is probably similar with the rest of the development team. Sorry about that.

Update:
 
This crash occurs only with LSPDFR running. 
 
The DLC map interiors used by LSPDFR does not cause the game to crash; I tried to restore the previous DLC map patchs and the game still crashes.
 
After unload LSPDFR plugin, I was able to free roaming around the crash locations with no crashes, with all the other mods installed, as well as the latest DLC update.

Hello, 

I think I may have found a bug that is causing LSPDFR to crash to desktop on the current build(8021). I have manage to recreate the crash consistently every time, that includes with no mods installed or other plugins for LSPDFR. I am able to play LSPDFR and go on patrol as my currently selected officer, so long as I avoid returning to her apartment (And the area surrounding it) in Grapeseed.
 
Switching characters to my officer that lives at 4 Integrity Way causes a crash to desktop when the GTA character swap camera gets to the second close up of their apartment. RagePluginHook works fine in these problem areas when started without LSPDFR being loaded at start up. However, once it is loaded and any character (Both story mode and LSPDFR Characters) go near the apartments. It will crash to desktop. 

I have tried a number of solutions to remedy this problem, but it crashes to desktop every time. This includes...
Disabling Preload all models.
Fresh install of LSPDFR build 8021 (manually)
Fresh install of RPH that came with 8021
Updating and reinstalling RagenativeUI 8.2
Removing all plugins
removing all ScripthookV mods
Removing ScripthookV itself
Updating my Drivers
removing all mods and OpenIV related files
Starting RPH in Windowed mode (Which has solved issues like this in the past)
 
Long story shot. The problem seems to be related to the apartments surrounding areas that causes a crash to desktop.
 
I am attaching a recent RPH log along (where I loaded RPH with out LSPDFR loading on startup) in the hopes of this post being seen by the devs and maybe they can find a solution. Or hey, maybe I have missed something, I'm not that ruling out.
 
Thanks for viewing!
RagePluginHook.log

Hello,
 
In support to this topic, I am also experiencing this exact same crash around my character's apartment in Vinewood Hills, as well as at 4 Integrity Way while exiting the apartment. 
 
This crash can be re-produced by going into the "crash zones" which is anywhere near the apartments.
 
Even while off-duty, without any mods, extra plugins, scripts, or asi loaders, this crash still happens regardless. 

Perfekt danke für deine Hilfe ! 😀

It can but you will be looking for a while. The most likely solution is just to re-install the audio folder included with LSPDFR, along with the audio files from any callout packs you installed. Keep in mind that some callout packs dont utilize audio sounds or they pull from already existing ones that LSPDFR provides.

You may find this useful:
 

If you open "OpenIV" and activate the edit mode, it will tell you if you need to update your update.rpf.
 
If you made any changes in your C:\Steam\steamapps\common\Grand Theft Auto V\\mods\update\update.rpf they will be overwritten (So you would need to redo all changes you made in the update.rpf file)
 
No other file will be affected by the update.
 

ok thanks. But i got it working now. xD
 

I help Charlie with helping others alot with LSPDFR issues, and i gotta say this, its been said alot here, but almost EVERY issue i come across can be googled and answered from a topic already posted.
Posted 20 hours ago
I just noticed this.... You posted both of these in the same hour. LSPDFR support is not a paid spot, so they wont be on 24/7 to assist with issues, dont know why you would think a community is dying because you didnt get an answer in the first hour. Sorry if this comes off harsh.

I'm confused, and please correct me if I'm wrong, but you waited less than a few hours for a reply to your support thread then posted this?
 
Either way, we will sometimes reply to novel issues (issues that are actually a bug in LSPDFR). Unfortunately, not a lot people actually have novel issues and their issue is usually installation related, third-party mod related or they broke their mods folder.
That's the reality, really. And by no means am I saying LSPDFR is bug free.
Most problems can be solved by the user themselves by actually just reading their logs. I can understand why there's not a large proportion of people wanting to help out with these threads when they are usually the same issue. The fact people are even willing to take the time out of their days to reply to these threads is much much more than should be expected and speaks volumes for their goodwill.

The issue is that since LSPDFR.com doesnt utilize a Support Staff it comes down to people helping if they want to and if they have time. Like Rich mentioned, there are plenty of active LSPDFR Support Discord Servers. And learning to utilize reading logs and readmes are great ways to solve any issues you have. That's how I got started in the tech support game. I utilized Google and previous support topics to help me through issues.

I would love to help but I believe the only way to find out which mod is causing the problem is by installing them one by one and see at which point it breaks the ELS Rotators (DROT). Normally this problem is caused by installing the car model on another slot than POLICE, POLICE2, FIRETRUK or AMBULANCE (EFLC: POLICE3, POLICEB)
 
You installed everything correctly as what I can see from the logs.
 
Modded GTA V is way more stable than IV (unless you play vanilla GTA IV with lcpdfr) and since it has a more active
community, it is also easier to get help but still love to play LCPDFR even though the game gives me headaches sometims. 

No worries you didn't waste my time I'm glad to hear that it worked 🙂 

Thank you for your willingness to help me.
But I know that I will not return to GTA IV so soon, because I have an awful lot of mods there and I don't want to deal with it now.
Like you said it's headache.
It is a pity that they did not combine these 2nd games into one.
I wouldn't have to install a better handling mod on cars in GTA V and similar things that GTA IV picked up.
I miss more reality things in vanilla GTA V.

thanks alot for the help, i used menyoo to psawn it and it worked fine, seriously thanks for the help

You only need to add the <Item>dlcpacks:/BCSO/</Item> line to your dlclist.xml located in mods/update/update.rpf/common/data
 
The BCSO folder goes in to GTAV\mods\update\x64\dlcpacks
 
after that, you should be able to spawn the car using a trainer or RPH. 
(I installed it myself and I'm able to spawn them)
 
If it still doesn't work attached your dlclist.xml and I check it for you

thank you very much, it's working now. He needs to update from LSPDFR 0.4.7 to 0.4.8

I would recommend you to watch the modding tutorial from Albo. Very useful in the beginning and well explained. 
 
Video:
HOW TO INSTALL LSPDFR 0.4.4 & RAGEPluginHook
 
It's a whole playlist but it helps a lot.
 
And I saw that Charlie686 offers support on discord. I could imagine it would be easier to explain such installations over voice
