I’ve downloaded 4.6 and am trying to get back in to playing some LSPDFR. I was having issues with LSPDFR crashing in general, but was able to get that resolved, but I’m left with two issues: 1. I added dlc packs for BCSO vehicles, along with, LSPD. I did edit the dlc.xml to include both as well. However, none of the skins/cars show up in game. What am I forgetting to do? 2. ELS - I redownloaded ELS, but it’s not seeming to work at all. None of the lights light up at all, and I’m not even getting beeps like they’re trying to cycle through the stages. It’s not the scroll lock issue (ELS Locked message) 3. EUP - I don’t know if this is a common issue, it seems to come up a lot, but I added EUP, added some skins through the EUP DLC areas, but none of those show up in game, and the menu is empty. I’m sure these are all user errors somewhere, but I feel like I’ve gone back through everything, but nothing seems to resolve my issues with these three aspects.

Well I was able to finally figure out what was causing both of my issues. I decided to go line by line and take a really close look at everything. Embrassingly, one of the first things I discovered was that I forgot the, “I”, in sheriff5.ytd (sherff5.ytd). I just didn’t notice it because it didn’t jump out that it was missing when I looked at it before. That resolved the texture issue with the CVPI. I was still left with issue of both my sheriff4 and sheriff5 cars not being able to pull anyone over. Well this appeared to happen because somehow I missed, “<Item>“, to start one of the original lines, but again it was buried in the lines and I didn’t see it until I went through line by line. Well now everything seems to be operating normal. I share this as hopefully if anyone else runs in to a similar issue, they can find usefulness in my story of not paying attention to detail, and are able to resolve their issue the same way.

Well, I have gone back through both the meta and variations file, but cannot seem to identify any holes; however, I am not an expert at this either. I will put the sheriff5 meta and variations lines below, if any notices anything that should be changed, please let me know. vehicles.meta: carvariations.meta

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll take a look once I get home from work today, and see if there's something that I've overlooked somewhere along the way.

The texture issue that I am having with the CVPI is similar to the issue described in this post: The model loads, but the skin appears to not load properly. Unfortunatley I do not have a screenshot at the moment to upload. When I researched that specific issue, I noticed that the majority of those issues were as a result of a conflict with NVR; however, I do not use NVR, so I had in another post that described my similar issue, that it could be that there are too many added vehicles, and that the texture would not load (or something to that effect). I have added three addon vehicles without a modded gameconfig, because the gameconfig that I tried to use that was supposed to be updated for the most recent version, kept crashing my game.

Alright, hopefully this will be the last issue that I need help on for a while. I am currently having an issue where my added sheriff vehicles, will not successfully initiate a stop on another car. I can blip them, but they will not pull over. I added slots for a sheriff3, sheriff4 and sheriff5. The added sheriff3 works fine, no issues there. The sheriff 5, which is a cvpi model, has texture issues and I am assuming is just because I am trying to load too many textures; however my sheriff4 shows up, and functions properly, at least from a model standpoint. I followed Giordano's guide to adding slots, with the exception of the gameconfig file, because that file does is for the old GTA version. I created the metas for both vehicle, which include the proper flags for emergency vehicle and such, as well as, a carvariation for both. My trafficcontrol is set to false for my ELS.ini. I am just finding it hard to figure out where exactly I went wrong. I am not using NVR, I am using RadianceV. Would anyone have any suggestions to check? I can provide any additional info if necessary.

I installed Rage 0.64, but reverted my game version from the backup file. However, when that did not work I still had a copy of 0.63, and tried that as well; however, both did not work. I am assuming that it was because I did not save a backup of the regular update.rpf. I was able to obtain the previous exe and launcher from steam, but still no luck. The good news is that I was able to find a solution for ELS for now, so it is not as big of a deal. I will just need to make sure to not only backup through RPH, but also backup the update.rpf, and exe/launcher.

The recent game update made the current Scripthookv invalid. We need to wait for another updated scripthookv. I believe that is the cause for your cars and such are not loading.

I backed up my old game version in RPH prior to updating the game, as well as, RPH. Unfortunately after I updated the game and RPH, RPH is no longer allowing me to revert back because the version I am using is not supported. I see that other's have had this issue (unfortunately after the fact); I guess I am really trying to see if I am misunderstanding what the point of backing up your game version in RPH is, if RPH does not allow you to use it? Maybe I am doing it incorrectly?

Is there a list of what each vehicle's handling data is set for, example police1 - car, police3 - SUV, etc? I have gone back through the pages and do have the list of vehicles, I just want to make sure that when I replace the vehicles, that I do not go with a car that should be an SUV.

Have you downloaded any graphical mods? This could be an issue based on a graphical mod, rather than an ELS issue?

I also seemed to be having difficulties with my fuel script that I was running, so just make sure that there are no other conflicts as well

I just responded to another topic, and although someone else may have an "easier" solution, the only way that I have been able to do it is one of two ways. The main issue when it comes to RDE after the update, is the gameconfig file. A) Go through, find, and delete any file associate with RDE. It depends on how comfortable you are that you can find said files. An easy way to do that is just to look at the manual install zip and go to those locations and replace the files with the backup/original files that RDE replaced. There is a d/l out there that has the original gameconfig file out there that you can just replace. However, you will also need to delete off any other RDE type download, including the DLC packs that it creates. B) All and all, in my opinion the "easiest" way to get rid of RDE for now, is to delete your mods folder and do a fresh install of everything. Yes it's time consuming, but the bright side is that it will teach you to keep backups of everything (I too have had to learn this lesson). Both options of course are assuming that you are utilizing a mods folder, and are not installing everything to your base GTA directory. If you are not using a mods folder, then you will most likely have to reinstall your game.
