Hey all, So I'm a bit new to the vehicle modding game and am currently making a concept for a police Sanchez... I'm currently using the Whelen Tir3's by OfficerFive0 (http://www.lcpdfr.com/files/file/11621-whelen-tir3-super-led-module/) and am having a bit of trouble with them. When I merge them into Z3, they're huge, and I ended up having to scale them down to about 0.02 in order to get them to fit... Once I fitted them, attached the sirens, and did all that, I exported and brought them into the game. For some reason they're still huge in-game, floating below the bike (see screenshots)... I took screenshots of what I'm seeing in Zmod3, OpenIV, and then in-game, as well as my hierarchy... If anybody knows what I might be doing wrong and would mind sharing some insight, it would be greatly appreciated... Thanks! In Zmodeler 3: In OpenIV: Ingame: My hierarchy in Zmod3: Looking back at the pictures, I just realized that there's double of the chassis in the last picture... I'm thinking it might be a LOD issue but not too sure, help is still appreciated!

Any solutions on this? Still stumped!

Hey, guys, I am hoping for some advice from some modders on here who might know my issue. I am trying to bring a premade, working model into ZModeler and edit the components of it. The reason for this is that I want to add a leg holster on some and then remove a component on other which I don't want my officers to have. The import is fine and I seem to be able to edit the PED perfectly fine (My edits show up in game), but there's an issue with the PED once it's in-game... Watch the video below and you'll see exactly what I mean. The hands, head, and sometimes feet (Not in that video though) seem to function properly, but the rest of the body stays in once large mass and just tilts with movement, which is very comical, but not very good for what I'm trying to do. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong... Even just importing and exporting a PED into and out of ZModeler without changing anything breaks it so that it acts like this! Any help is appreciated! P.S. I do not plan on editing locked PEDs or PEDs that are not allowed to be edited... I only plan on using base PEDs and then adding my own components to them, the PED used in the video is just a proof of concept! Thanks, ~Nick M.

Oh my lord guys, I finally got it working... THANK GOD! Here's my solution, please let me know if it works for you too! 1. Go to your main GTA V directoy where the RPH.exe is located 2. Right click on a blank space in the directory and click properties (Not on a file, but on a blank space 3. Uncheck the read-only mode and then click apply to all folders and subfolders 4. Wait and then launch the game using the RPH.exe 5. Enjoy and then cry because you've been trying to fix it for a year! lol Hope I could help at least one other person! Thanks, -Nick M

Alright, thought so... Thanks for the help you could provide! -Nick

@ScottehBoyy After doing so, it now says "GTAVLauncher has failed to start", yet still starts the normal, unmodded GTA V. Since so many of us are having the issue, could it possibly be a bug? Thanks, -Nick

@Israelct Yeah, exactly... Good to know it's not just me... Do you have the Steam version of the game aswell? Thanks, -Nick

So I am using RPH .41 and the RPH got stuck on the logo, yet it still launched the game without RPH. Thanks, -Nick

So I'm having quite the issue. I've been away from GTA V for a while and now that I'm back, I installed all the mods (LSPDFR, addons, etc). I installed the new RPH (0.41.965.8352) and quickly found a problem. After clicking launch on the RPH settings tab, it brought up the RPH loading screen and then said "GTAVLauncher.exe has exited unexpectedly." Right as I was about to start troubleshooting my GTA directory, the normal (Unmodded) GTA V game launched. But I thought it said i had a problem with my LaunchGTAV.exe! Anyways, I reverted back to the older RPH (0.40.952.8173) and got the same problem. I even tried reinstalling RPH and the whole LSPDFR to no avail. Might be helpful to note, Albo's troubleshooter said that the file RPH was in was named wqrong but I didn't find any problems with the name, it's the default steam gives it. Would this be something to post on the RPH forums or can you guys help me here? Thanks for the help and let me know if you need anything else on my end, -Nick

Hey, so LCPDFR has been working fine for me recently until I launch the game today and see that it says 'Error in script LCPDFR_Loader.Loader'... I have had this message before and fixed it by redownloading LCPDFR, but this time nothing that I tried worked... Here is what the LCPDFR log file had to say: [INFO - 11:52:36 PM] [Log] Started [INFO - 11:52:36 PM] [Main] Main: Initializing...

What seems to be the cause of this problem? I have removed all plugins but it still doesn't work... Thanks for the help, and yes, I know GTA IV LCPDFR is old now, but I use it for a role-play clan, so we can't switch to GTA V yet! -Nick

Couldn't Rockstar charge for servers that are modded. Games like G-mod and MInecraft have purchasable servers that players can run and manage! Those servers would then be private!

Hey guys... I had an idea today that might be crazy, but it just popped into my head. What if Rockstar sold private servers (Kind of like g-mod or minecraft) that clans could mod and then use for roleplay and such. The servers would not interfere with the traditional Rockstar servers, so players could play modded on them freely! If you would support something like this (I know I would pay a bit per month to have a private GTA V modded server), please sign the petition located here: CHANGE.ORG Thanks, -Nick PS: Feel free to leave any more suggestions that could possibly go with these servers, below!
