Caramel Please

This might also help do it permanently rather then you going into the trainer each time. In the vehicles.meta find the line for sheriff2 that says diffusetint and replace the value with this <diffuseTint value="0x00FFFFFF" />

I know this thread is kinda dead but I was looking for a custombackup.xml that was like this for a while, so I thought I would post it. There is a chance someone is looking for one that replaces LSPDFR backup. ie: just the basics such as police, sheriff and state. You just have to change the vehicle lines to the name of your own mods.
 
Local Patrol Los Santos: Police Local Patrol Both Counties: Sheriff Local Swat Everywhere: Swat ped I have in unmarked cars. ( I do not use Noose, I just use Local Swat as in LSPDFR barely any situations calls for a slow ass riot van/tactical vehicle.) State Patrol Everywhere: Both regular and motorbike officers. Noose Patrol: Do not used but lines are there for you to change. (My Local Swat is what I use when I need tactical units) Local Air:  Normal Police helicopter with unarmed pilots Noose Air: Annihilator with no vehicle weapons but with armed swat units that will shoot their weapons. CustomBackup.xml

go into the els.ini and turn of traffic control. It is under general and is called "ElsTrafCtrlOn" change it to false.

I am sure that this isn't an RDE issue as this occurs in default GTA 5. It pisses me off so much especially when you go on a foot pursuit and then the initial scene despawns. There is a mod called "Entity Persistence" that fixes this. From the mod page:

 
 

Yeah I have been a lurker on the forums where other people have had browsing issues so I am in the loop about them. I have kinda gotten use to it by now so it is not a huge issue. It is just a nuisance. There is no point in investigating it then as it will just be beating a dead horse. Telstra will just be as bad as Comcast when it comes to them fixing things.

I had connection issues to a certain games servers. To make the story short; game company made me do trace routes to the servers, they saw it was Telstras fault, took me 6 phone calls and a few hours of talking to get them to schedule the fix, the fix will take 6 months just for it to get planned then another 4 months before they actively work on it. So about a year just for that.

So yeah, I wouldn't waste time trying to sort it out. I have always heard people say Telstra is Australia's Comcast and I guess it is true.

From what I can tell they use different sirens. They are Federal Signal SS2000, Whelen CenCom and Touchmaster Delta.

Wow, very sexy. Great work to all involved.

Hello!
 
I am making this post to announce the development of my first plugin, which is basically just a menu that is meant to add immersion to the LSPDFR experience.
Do you feel like you are not talking to dispatch as much as a real cop would? Do you wish that you could report to dispatch your current status, as well as inform them of various things?
Then this plugin is for you. It does not add much in terms of features, as most of the functions are purely aesthetic and are just there for immersion.
All options when selected generate a verbal response from dispatch and play the radio animation.
 
Pictures (click)
 
Current Features: (features with actual functions are detailed in parenthesis)
 
Traffic Stop  Tell dispatch you are on a traffic stop. Inform them of occupancy, whether its a felony stop, and if you require assistance (regular stop backup is one unit, felony is two units). "Show Me..."  Current Options: En Route (Does NOT accept callout as of now) On Scene In Foot Pursuit In Vehicle Pursuit Code 4 (Ends current callout if active, aesthetic dispatch response if not) Suspect Description Give dispatch description of suspect such as gender, race, and build. Vehicle Description Give dispatch description of suspect's vehicle type and color. "Suspect is..." Tell dispatch whether suspect is in custody or deceased. Shots Fired Tells dispatch that shots have been fired at your location (Generates three Code 3 backup units too you)  
Plugin in its current state is 100% functional but still buggy as this is my first time working with GTA modding. Currently depends on LSPDFR, RageHook, ScriptHookV, and RageNativeUI.
I wish to know how much interest in this there would be, please let me know. I may be looking for beta testers if there is enough interest.
I am open to all feedback and suggestions on this, such as things to add, remove, or rework.

Thank you!
 
 

LSPDFR hasn't seen an update in over a year.  I've been told it's still being worked on, so I'll accept that as true, but nevertheless, it seems clear that whatever is being done is taking a very long time.
 
My question is, why not open source it on GitHub?  People could contribute, submit pull requests, then all the developers would need to do is test the new code.  Development could proceed much faster.  Since LSPDFR is already free of charge, I don't see any downside to releasing the source.

No sir, ELS's system is quite different from the original lighting. Original lighting vehicles (that aren't lore) would require an edited carcols.ymt which can get really messy depending on the amount of car mods you're using. Carcols however, is a great use for rotary lighting and my vehicles. I include it with my ELS vehicles to show for what ELS lacks.
^It's also a much easier system to utilize and requires a lot less confusion and clutter. Although the environmental lighting ELS is quite poor, I prefer to use ELS for the extras, and carcols.ymt for coronas and lighting effects.

You can use the mod called "Custom Backup" to tweak backup much more then the default LSPDFR method allows. It is a great mod but the helicopter sometimes fires a random gunshot every now and then. Also motor cops aim their weapon at suspects while driving which breaks the immersion for me.
 
The mod called "Heli Orbit" changes the way helicopters handle pursuits. The helicopter does a circular orbit instead of hovering 3 feet off the ground.
 
For spike strips there are several mods that do this. There is a roadblock mod that is probably the best one imo but it is currently being revamped/upgraded. The one you should use atm is called "Spike Strips Backup" 

I am a bit confused what you mean by 
Do you want more vehicle slots? Like you want more models in game instead of police, police2, police3, etc. Once I understand that I can answer it for you.

I mean this in a nice way. You mustn't have searched very hard as this is vary common "issue". I say issue in quotes as it is an ELS feature that is good in theory. Go to your ELS.ini which is located in the base gta 5 folder (where gta5.exe is). Scroll down to "GENERAL" and make it so it says the following: ElsTrafCtrlOn = false

That will allow you to use the airhorn and siren tones without "pushing" the AI away.

If you have any other questions I am happy to help.

Not the smartest cookie, I found the fix shortly after posting this in the ELS.ini like you have stated. 

Thanks for the help anyway.

It's practically been released through my discord like I've been mentioning, I've given almost everyone who has asked,  the beta testing role on my server which gives you access to most of my cars. 
 
Currently I'm not home due to a mandatory evacuation, along with 6 million more residents of Florida. So as for an official release, I can't see one happening now, as I'm still not certain I'll return to a standing home. 
 
I haven't released the cars on lcpdfr because of the painstaking process of credits and bitching that occurs over small bugs, so I'm trying to perfect everything on my cars, from LOD's to minute details for accuracy so I don't get torn a new one by someone in the reviews stating that I'm an awful modeler when they have never touched zmod themselves. 
 
I haven't given up on the pack, I haven't stopped production of models in the slightest, but I'm busy trying to set myself up for an actual career in law enforcement, and dealing with other personal stuff in my life. If you'd like to use the cars now, feel free to join the discord and tag me. I understand the frustration, I did advertise these models for a year, but it's not like I'm hiding them in some deep cellar that is my modding folder, I just don't feel comfortable with an official release. 

This car isn't as good looking as Christine. Toyouanyway.

Christine?

I use a Vic 95% of the time. I love them soooo much.
 
At least this time the crash was a reasonable one :P
Vic's are love, Vic's are life
