Thank you for the input. I'm pretty familiar with adding files to mod games. This will just be the first time doing it with GTA. I usually do create backup, so I've got that covered. I suppose I am just having a hard time navigating on what files I need to download and which ones I don't. I've noticed that a lot of things say ELS compatible but have been unable to figure out what ELS is on here. I just want to make sure that whatever I do download, I have everything for such. Usually I just randomly find things I like, add them into the game and see what I can do. However, upon learning about this site, I was pretty excited since I've done this on my own since the beginning of my GTA experience, pretending to pull over cars, try to help the local police when I see them chasing someone, which as everyone knows, can go array extremely quick. Then off I go trying to steal another cop car and not wreck it and such, which brings another question to mind. I've noticed most people have a setting to reset there damage to the car. Is that a developer thing, or something else I can get? Where can I find the Script Hook downloads? I've already got Rage. Also, is there a way to search for a user and only see their uploads? To clarify, the folders and everything I start to edit, can't I just make a copy of those? or is it better to copy to entire GTAV folder and files and store the original on my external HD?

I've been a long time fan of GTA. I've got GTA on both PS3 and PS4. I read about this site in a comment review of another game I was looking into and after watching many videos and reading, I decided to download GTA on my PC for the sole purpose of LSPDFR. I still have a few hours to go until GTAV is completely downloaded onto my PC, but my main question is what are the minimum programs I need, and what is also recommended to add-on. I have already downloaded the Rage application, LSPDFR 031, and Traffic Policer 6.13.6.3 by Albo1125. I've seen several videos with very nice looking squad cars. Is that something that is included with any of the files I already have? I'm not a big fan of the few car designs in the game, so that is also something I am looking for. Is there anything else that anyone recommends me looking into? Thank you ahead of time for any guidance. If anyone has any questions of me, feel free to ask.
