20 June, 2019 - We have released a minor update (Build 7110) for LSPDFR 0.4.2 to fix a couple of issues that have been reported to us.
 
We're happy to announce that the latest update of LSPDFR, version 0.4.2, is now available.  LSPDFR 0.4.2 brings with it a couple of snazzy new features including protective ballistic shields and the ability to flash your police badge.  Aside from this, 0.4.2 not only fixes a number of bugs that have been reported, but also introduces sweeping changes and improvements to the LSPDFR 0.4 API, giving plugin developers more access and power than ever.
 
Additionally, we've made a massive improvement to the Pause Menu which, in something of a first for a GTA mod, now lets you seamlessly configure your LSPDFR keybinds in-game, using the same system as the game itself.
 
LSPDFR 0.4.2, along with full release notes, can be found here: https://www.lcpdfr.com/files/file/7792-lspd-first-response
 
 
Please also see our updated Wiki articles detailing some of the new features in LSPDFR 0.4.2: 
https://www.lcpdfr.com/wiki/lspdfr/04/features/

Disclaimer: I can't guarantee these will work universally across the board, but these are the plugins and callouts that I have working in my game personally. Remember to always make a backup. I am not liable for your broken game.
 
Keep in mind to remain grateful as this is a modification we are playing free of charge. We are literally just over 12 hours into 0.4's release, so time is needed for authors to make the proper adjustments to their mods for implementation from 0.3.
 
Also, please do not include any visual or audio modifications as these should be irrelevant to the version of LSPDFR being played.

You're welcome!!!!! 🙂

Yeah Bonner County isn't a very populated area. really the only big thing is Schweitzer ski resort. I have absolutely no clue how to make skins or I would make them myself.. I couldn't ask someone to make them who has no intentions of using or releasing them as that has to be a ton of work. thank you for the info though. I appreciate you taking the time to comment! 🙂

You'd have a miracle trying to find skins that may not be widely known. My best guess is that none exist, however I am sure there are those out there who could make the skins for you.

I love refreshing 5 times in a row to download a file. 

As I said, it's not there for no reason. It's there because we cannot tolerate automatic downloads to deliberately abuse our resources and raise costs.

Baby was removed from the vehicle at 7:40. And the turret thing is actually a gas injector unit. It penetrates hard surfaces and dispenses tear gas. So if the guy did move, it still would've done its purpose, as it's supposed to hit his car, not him.
On average of 6 months for academy training only. They're on probation/hands on training for another 3-12 months. It's not great, but because of how sucky our general society is, a lot of places can't afford to have officers in training for 2+ years before being allowed to patrol. This can be alleviated with more in house training, but that also cost money. Money that these kind of places (in the video) don't have. Sucks, but that's life.

He is the community helper afterall, lol. Glad to see it worked for you man!

I don't believe it is Nebraska. This looks exactly like Wisconsin. 

This is literally unnecessary. What modelers have we (the community) made run away? If I remember correctly, those that have quit have quit for pretty solid reasons against certain people, not all of us.
 
lol

My best guess is instead of throwing names this early in the game, try to look more in-depth into why a select few are leaving/taking a break. Until then, you might want to watch what you say here.

Well said, Sam. 

My, this got toxic, quick.

Right, I'm going to side with the majority of people here, this is just stirring the pot of an already overflowing mess.

I guess I'll add my two cents in real quick.
 
I'm not going to lie, I've been absent from the community for the last couple of years so I don't really know who you are, but thank you for your contribution to the community. It's really something that goes unnoticed and people really take it for granted which is unacceptable. People need to stop being so god damn needy. If you would like something, either create it yourself or ask for some help. Creating content isn't really that easy, if it was easy everyone would do it. There are some people out there that are better than others, but every little contribution counts. It's what makes a community a community.
 
One thing that I've noticed over the last 8 years is that the sense of a community has gone down the drain. Back in the early modding days of GTA 4 with modders like Lt. Caine, Bxbugs, and Yakadafi (Just saying those names makes me feel old, especially Yakadafi before his namechange lol), everyone was giving other members their own content so they could create something off of that and vice versa. Now it seems like everyone is all self centered which takes away from the whole point of a community. Maybe it's just because the older generation is moving on from the GTA scene and we're getting the new batch of younger members into the community, but who knows. It's childish. 

With all the talk about LSPDFR 0.4, it's been a little while since we've provided a general update on our community.  Of course, LSPDFR 0.4 is our main priority at the moment and we'll have more to say about it shortly, but we thought it important to also address and announce a couple of things regarding our community.
 
What our Community stands for
 
Before anything else, I'd like to take a moment to reflect on who we are, as people that run this website, and as a community.
 
LCPDFR was founded, back in 2009, simply because I thought it'd be a fun thing to do.  To play as the police in GTA IV.  It was an idea, ambitious for its time, and nothing more.  I worked on LCPDFR because it was fun, I published it because I thought others might also enjoy it.  LCPDFR has come a long way since then, it has evolved from one person's topic on a forum, to its own website, to its own forum, to its own community.  We've spanned two games, our reach has grown massively, our community is approaching 300,000 registered members.  The amount of work that goes into developing LSPDFR alone is staggering - the time that we've spent on it is measured not in days, weeks or months, but years.  Likewise, the effort required to keep our website online is vastly underestimated - in the past month we've served around 30 terabytes of download traffic alone, and have done all of this despite persistent, targeted denial of service and hacking attacks against us.  To put this in context, if you were to serve 30 terabytes of data through Amazon Web Services, it'd cost you $3,000 a month - and that's just one month of download traffic. 
 
Why do we do this?  Because it's fun.  We love developing our community, we love developing our mod, and we love that other people - complete strangers, from all over the world, from countries you've probably never heard of, from all walks of life... we love that they love LSPDFR.  Our community has achieved incredible things: we've created an entire gaming phenomenon and we've developed things that nobody ever thought would be possible.  Our members have done more than simply play games or make mods: we've fought hand-in-hand against corporate giants (and won), we've transformed peoples' entire lives by sparking new careers and we've been covered everywhere from massive YouTube channels to mainstream media publications.  Heck, we've even triggered out of touch government ministers in Australia.
 
That's not the whole story, though.  Sometimes we are the story.  Sometimes we make mistakes.  We've had catastrophes, like the time where we had a hyped countdown on the website only to reveal a private testing version of LCPDFR that nobody could access.   Our first ever livestream had to be rescued by Steve and Jeff after it started with Prophet driving a train around Los Santos and infamously stating "this is not the preview for LSPDFR 0.3" while our community manager could do nothing but watch helplessly after being accidentally disconnected.  We've messed up releases, we've announced things too quickly, and sometimes we've not announced things at all.   
 
Yet, despite all of this.  Nine years later, we're still here.  We're still making mods, we're still developing this community, and we've stuck true to our principles the entire time:
Our community is open to all. We treat members equally regardless of their status. Everything is completely free of charge, with no catches.  
Why?  It's not about fame, it's not about money, it's not about status.  It's about love.  We love LCPDFR, we love LSPDFR, and we love our community.  We don't think that modding should be hidden in private Discord servers.  We don't think that modding should be something people pay for.  We don't think that modding should be an ego boost.
 
We just think that modding should be fun.  It should be open, and it should be free.  That's what we stand for, and that's what we do.
 
How you can get involved
 
Last year, we opened up applications to join our Community Team for the first time.  This resulted in a couple of new faces joining our moderation team and upon reflection, we think it's a good change in approach from previously handpicking staff members ourselves.  We've decided to open these applications again, and would invite anyone who is interested in volunteering some of their free time to moderating our community to apply by following the link below.  Our volunteer Community Moderators are a vital part of everything that we do, and it wouldn't be possible to maintain the community without them.

I got warned to stop commenting on it.But i didnt.Some people will say its your fault but i cant take this disrespect to the real author so i posted a thumbs down.That was the reason why i got a warning point.Im not banned or something but i decided to hide my files from there.Some of you are moddeling on your own and you may got a feeling in what a bad state the Modding community is.There is a huge disrespect on the work of others.I understand that admins are also people and cant remove everything within a sec.But however i dont want to attack any admins.Only the person who uploaded it.But for doing that i put my stuff down.Some of you may think thats completly overreacted.Maybe it is.But i dont want to be a part of an Toxic community anymore.Stuff like this is the reason why people leave.I also did it to show that enough is enough.Respect others work.I know Im not god and cant change the world.But i dont want to take that.This site doesnt deserved this.Alot of people put so much love in creating this site.I want to thank them.Maybe we can get back to what this site should be.A place where we can do what we all love.Modding and playing this Video Game.Help each other if there are problems.I know that still happens.But there is more toxic stuff around than good.This is maybe a part of this community.But if so,i dont want to be a member of that.Most of us are all adults.Lets keep it like this.I dont want to say that i never was chlidish.But most people are.So,like i said you deserved a statement.There it is.I hope that something changes and i can Unhide my files again.Im Still gonna post some ingame pictures.If you want to get some more informations about stuff i do at the moment or also from others.Join my Discord.

I clearly said most of the staff are good people. I'm not stirring the pot. All I'm saying is, the poor choices of staff is a credible reason for me leaving. I have the full story of what happened, I wouldn't post something like this being uninformed.

It's a shame to see such a talented person leave this community, hopefully I get to see your work soon! -Shrimp

Graphics mod has caused this, man! Might have to go delete your graphical mod. 

Don't quote (haha get it?) me on this, but I do not believe it is possible. I mean, it could be. I'll look around.

And others must acknowledge that there is absolutely nothing, nada, zip to prevent evil people from doing evil, horrid, vile, mean thing's.  Why don't you add that before you start directing the conversations issues toward one side of the spectrum?  
 
  There are fucked up people out there that will do fucked up things and no law or restriction will stop these vile people from completing their objective.

No no, I heard it on the local radio in my country and it was bugging me. This was not copied. I'm sorry if you don't find it relevant and that is completely fine
Fair point. It's just me trying to make some clear clarifications within the community and the media

Considering Rockstar and Take Two have agreed that single-player modifications are ok, and that this article is almost three years old now, I really don't see this as a problem. 

As unfortunate as it is, sometimes, media can get things wrong, as they did here. 

Unfortunate how events like this always fold out into a political debate.

As a Kansas City native who can remember only a few short years ago when we had our own mass hate-crime similar to this, I can tell you, it's best to leave this at sending prayers and help to those affected. No point in turning this into a worthless debate.
 
Do guns work? Yes.
Do they prevent crime? Yes.
Do we know if it would've worked here in this EXACT situation? No.
Is everyone a hero? No.
 
Lets keep it clean and simple. Not everything needs to be politicized.
