Hi there! Just a question and a suggestion to those fine people maintaining and/or developing plugins. Would it be possible to implement new features that LSPDFR 0.4 has built in to play nice with plugins such as Stop the Ped, Traffic Policer, Ultimate Backup, Smart Radio etc (those are so far my list of must haves)... for example, .4 now offers: Frisk /Stop the Ped has Pat Down/ - two different behaviours Grab also different to stop the ped's grab Kneel down also different to stop the ped's .... you know where this is going right? I noticed that those do things differently because i could not call in .4's prisoner transport while the ped was knelt down by Stop the Ped. Also those actions (like Frisk) do not count to the site's profile. Also - StP and SmartRadio have prisoner transport buttons, can they call .4's prisoner transport ? I know that this would invalidate parts of those plugins, but when it's available in core now, why not use it or extend upon it rather than do things differently? There are probably more goodies now available in core that plenty of plugins used to do their way. While I'm not willing to give up on those plugins - it was a pain using the builtin computer for checking licence plates, all hail Computer+ - from 3rd person they are barely readable and the default computer, or any LSPDFR menu for that matter, does not open while in first person in vehicle. Cheers!

It’s ultimately a good thing. Official support or endorsement is usually more of a pain than pleasure. All the support and endorsement a modding community needs is a well-documented modding API, which we have thanks to RPH, no thanks to Rockstar. Some games are built with mods in mind, but leave the rest up to the community. Others are built with in-game mod browser or similar that is heavily moderated, has strict TOS etc. And I believe R*/T2 would be even worse. Plus the one thing many people forget, modding does not make them money. If it did, they would recognize it already. But they have online - they don’t need modders. There are dumbasses that buy a buttload of shark cards each time a new update to online hits - just because rockstar keeps inflating and inflating prices of everything. I stopped giving a damn about the time the damn boats came out. And now they are gonna do the same with RDR2, which is really a shame. But the blame is not solely on R*/T2, as long as there is enough people okay or happy with such business model, it will not die. I think there was an activision/blizz dev that came out saying “If people would not buy it as much, there would not be microtransactions everywhere.” or something in that sense.

On a positive note I managed to survive my first "panic" today. Holy s* so many cops show up when you call panic on the radio. And the perp even managed to survive, get multiple charges and i made sure to have her court hearing before exiting GTA V. Nice 22 years she got. She was just reving her engine behind me while I was making a traffic stop. When I used "stop the ped" to get her out of the car, she got out and pulled a handgun on me. Got into cover, called panic, got like 2 shots into her. By the time the panic support arrived, I was about to put the handcuffs on. I think my character ended up with like 2-3 shots in his back. Scary stuff - and the EMS I called afterwards just handed me a first aid kit, because that's the remedy for all of life's problems 😄 Clinically depressed? - Here's a first aid kit. Shot to the head? - Here, have a first aid kit. You seem to be missing a few fingers, I brought you a first aid kit! Oh, a clean shot through your Johnson, a first aid kit should fix that. Your wife is leaving you because we gave you a first aid kit last time? Look on the bright side - you can have another one for your alcoholism.

Livin' on the edge 😄 I get it with an AIO, if it looks like it was leaking during shipping, no way is it going in. Buuuut, the last time I did the flush, cleaning and refill, I was a bit too enthusiastic with the filling. Or my hand slipped. Either way in the end it looked like a crime scene, with a pastel red coolant all over the case, on the backplate of the GPU, slowly dripping down onto (thankfully not into) the PSU. After cleanup with paper towels it looked like I was involved in a ritual sacrifice of a chicken or two. I felt like "The Verge" of watercooling. Yet the PC still works.

I live by the wise words of our dear uncle BubmleF...., if it's already *broken*, you can't *break* it any more. On the other hand I am not the one likely to pass on such an opportunity to do a bit of an upgrade. (I'm not sure this sentence is correct, sorry, second language and all that) This is the reason I've been waiting for - for the past two years - and I "needed" a GPU block and a bit more thermal capacity (more radiators, more better) anyway 😄

We're not supposed to discuss support here, but you're aware that both ScriptHookV (that you need to have for ASI scripts to load) and AdvancedHookV (that comes with ELS) have logs, right? If you shoot a message my way I can try to help as best as I can. How the hell do you embed YT videos here, I'm sorry but I can't help myself, with all the french in here

Nah. I'll do an autopsy once i tear it all out. It's not that long ago that I did a flush and change, aand had both the CPU block and pump apart, because I use Mayhems Pastel, it was a bit messy but not that much. I expect it's reached its EOL (50k hours) a bit early - it is a cheapo res + pump combo. Plus it's a great chance to upgrade - I'll do an EKWB pump+res with a DC5 pump, it has like 4x the flow of this PoS. Hope the "name brand" will be a bit more reliable - this is the second one from this brand i have, on the first one, the res developed a niiice crack.

Aaaaaw crap, on tonight's duty, my watercooling pump died. I noticed bubbles forming on the outlet of the CPU block - the CPU is throttling aaand the pump's barely working. Had to undervolt and underclock for now, no chance of running GTA like that. The replacement will take atleast a week to arrive, sooo, yeah, take your time 😄

I would say the site might go down once .4 hits, but since it appears the guys are savy enough to use a CDN, it should be OK. Fingers crossed !

Looks like a purebred "kitty"eater to me ... 🙂 (to keep it PG) Sounds like a plan! I'm gonna jump on duty in 0.3.1 in a while, so far I mined a few ounces of gold in Gold Rush, checked out a few "newer" videos on Police Activity, and went through all the posts since the last time i checked here. 19:30 local so another night shift 🙂

Why do so many people go through the trouble of a fresh install of GTA V, when it's literally like 2 folders you have to delete and LSPDFR is gone 🙂 And you are robbing yourself of the beauty that still is 0.3.1, there's no better way to shorten the wait for 0.4 than by playing what you got.

I think paid mods is a big no-no licence-wise (phew), but donations, merch or ad revenue is fine. Take Two seemingly even hates mods to "their" games.... Buuut if you haven't noticed, there's a merch store 🙂

That's not how the song goes ... ! 🙂

I don't, sorry. It would be a great stream/video material but I am not well equipped for such. The randomness of GTA always entertained me, and with the addition of LSPDFR on top of that, it can lead to some truly amazing interractions. Those were the highlights 🙂 The hype is very real for 0.4 ... Tell me you're not checking atleast once a day 🙂

I decided to shorten my wait for 0.4 by installing, tweaking and playing the actual version that is available, after almost a year I played GTA V last. And let me tell you, last night's duty was a "blast" 🙂 (possible wall of text) Here's a short report: 18:06, Los Santos International: While completing arrest report for a traffic stop involving a wanted person, a nice lady decided it would be a great idea to run up to my patrol car, sit into the driver's seat and attempt to drive off. While I am standing next to the open door of my patrol car. After dragging the suspect out of the car, detaining the suspect, I noticed a smell of alcohol in her breath, breahalizer clocked in at .108, adding a DUI to the list of her charges - even if the car moved at most an inch. After filling in the arrest report and waiting for prisoner transport, I noticed that my assault rifle needs reloading. All of the sudden, suspect is on the ground, face down, signs of life are not present. CPR failed. Cause of death: getting meele'd in the face by assault rifle. Moral of the story: always lock your car. 19:25, El Rancho Blvd: After a routine traffic stop, suspect flees the stop on foot after being asked for an ID. After giving chase, approx. 300 ft in the direction of Murrieta Oil Fields, and several verbal commands to stop, it is decided to go for less lethal option (stun gun) in the suspect's back to force the suspect to stop. Mistakes were made, most likely cause was holsters shifting while giving chase, and instead of less lethal in the back, the suspect took one 9mm. No signs of life, CPR failed, another job well done. Moral of the story: don't run. 22:05, Grove Street/Forum Drive: Regular patrol, identified a couple of "nigt workers", approached first suspect, ID'd, many fith pleads, decided to pat down. Suspect had a mascara, a dildo and a few condoms on her. No signs of intoxication, suspect was let off with a warning. Second suspect decided to flee upon request to ID herself. After forcing the suspect to stop with a less lethal option, I was involved in shooting with approx. 50 bystanders .... Panic was signaled through radio.... The rest is a bit of a blur. Glad to say I made a full recovery after being treated in the nearest medical facility. Moral of the story: grove street bad. Aren't you glad I aint a real police officer ?? 😄 Can't wait for tonight's duty! I sync my game time to system time, so I always get night shifts. But they be funny 😄
