Immersive Ambient Events is an ambient events plugin designed to fill in gaps of your patrol where nothing happens for long periods of time, without interfering with callouts, pursuits, pullovers, or anything else you may be doing!

Important: Due to how the severe weather event works, the game time cannot be frozen, or else the event will never end, there is a workaround in the FAQ below.
 
Events:
- Aggressive Driver
- Drunk Driver
- Gas Leak
- Hotboxing
- Severe Weather
- Vehicle BOLO
- Vehicle Trouble
- Speeding
- Street Racing
- Driver on Phone
- Drug Deal
- Drinking On Beach
 
Features:
- Timer System:
The plugins timer system constantly checks if you're available for calls and not doing anything significant. If you accept a callout or do anything else that would make the plugin consider you busy (Get into a pursuit, start a traffic stop, or otherwise set yourself as not available for calls) the plugins timer system stops and resets to the time you specify in the ini file, and it doesn't start again until you are no longer busy. Only one event in this plugin spawns at a time (with the exception of the Vehicle BOLO event, more on this below), to avoid overloading you with things to do. 
 
- Two Menus:
The plugins menu allows you to customize all your ini values in game, and save them to the ini file. It even allows you to change the keybinds for the menu in game! The menu also has multiple other uses, like interacting with peds in specific events through the interaction submenu. 
The plugin also has a second menu, which can be accessed in the RPH F4 console using the command "IAEOpenForceEventMenu" This second menu will allow you to forcefully spawn any event in the plugin, as well as forcefully end the current event that's active.
 
- Error Handling System:
We've all been there, you're enjoying a nice patrol on LSPDFR, then suddenly one plugin has an error and it crashes LSPDFR. This plugin has an error handling system that will help prevent that from happening! If for any reason an error happens within the plugin, a notification will be displayed, notifying you that an error occurred, it will log the error, and it will prevent a full LSPDFR crash. If the error happens to come from an ambient event and not one of the plugins backend systems, the plugin will log the error, display a notification, and forcefully end the event and continue on spawning new events like nothing happened. However, this system is not full-proof, so there is still a (small) chance that LSPDFR might crash if there's an error. I will continue to improve this system in future updates. 
 
- In Depth Vehicle BOLO System:
One of the events, Vehicle BOLO, saves between game sessions. Meaning that if you don't catch the guy during your patrol and get off LSPDFR, that exact same suspect(s) and vehicle will be there waiting for you in the same BOLO the next time you hop on. There's even a chance that an AI unit could locate the BOLO suspect and initiate a pursuit. Pay close attention to the details regarding the crime, as it can hint as to how the suspect will react when trying to be pulled over. This event is designed to be as randomized as possible for maximum replayability, even the amount of details you get on the vehicle is randomized. Sometimes you may get the make and model, sometimes maybe the make and a partial plate, etc etc. "But what if I have custom vehicles installed that replaces AI traffic?" Well I have good news for you, I included a file (bolomodels.json) within the Immersive Ambient Events folder that allows you to customize the names of the make, model, and class of vehicles in the notification. With this file you can even add new vehicles to the list of vehicles used in the event. Because this event usually lasts long periods of time, it runs on its own timer that's independent from the other ambient events. 

- Realistic Severe Weather Event:
No more patrols where the weather stays the exact same unless you manually change it. With the severe weather event, a storm (or blizzard if the current weather is a snow based one) can roll in at any moment, and even have the potential to knock out power across the map, making it extremely dark if it happens to be late at night. Hopefully your vehicle has spotlights or takedowns! 

FAQ:
How can I patrol during a specific time of day while having the severe weather event enabled?:
In simpletrainer, go to the time settings, and enable "Real Time Duration" what this does is it makes one minute in game the same as one minute in real life. Then you can change the ini setting for the severe weather event and set "HoursItLasts" to 0, and set the minutes option to be however long you want the storm to last. 
 
How can I tell when an ambient event is happening?:
Events will either display a notification of some sort, or a yellow question mark blip will appear on the minimap where the event is happening.
 
The question mark blip for an event disappeared when I got close to the event or exited my vehicle, is this normal?:
Yes, most events automatically delete the blip once you get close enough to be considered participating in the event, the events also take into consideration whether you're on foot or not before deleting the blip as well.
 
Why is the "Interaction" item on the plugins menu greyed out?: 
The interaction submenu is only enabled whenever there's an active event that uses it. If it is greyed out, that means no event that uses that system is active.

Why am I not getting updated sightings for the Vehicle BOLO event?:
For the Vehicle BOLO event, you need to be set as available for calls for the blip to update and for you to receive a notification. By default the event is set up to not show updated sighting notifications unless you are within 1000 meters of the area, however this can be changed in the BOLO event section of the plugins menu
 
Why can't I pull over the vehicle involved with the Vehicle Trouble event?: 
This is done on purpose, to prevent the pullover from interfering with tasks given to the driver. Don't worry, this is temporary and once the event is finished, you can pull that driver over if needed!

This mod improves the behavior AI backup in pursuits. Tired of seeing AI constantly and randomly go for pits on suspects? Tired of seeing AI drive out in front of a suspect for no reason and cause a major accident? Well I was, the default LSPDFR pursuit menu (keybind is N by default) seemed to be very inconsistent with its ability to stop backup units from utilizing tactics such as pits on AI, so I decided to fix that. With this mod installed, you now have complete control over when backup units go in for a pit on the suspect vehicle (by utilizing the pursuit menu and enabling/disabling tactics, which actually works properly now!). AI is also a bit more tame, when tactics are disabled, AI will just follow the suspect in a proper line. backup AI units will even slow down for you if you attempt to take primary, and they do not fight you for primary position in a pursuit. This mod does not change suspect AI, or any AI that is not labeled as police.
 
What this mod does:
AI units no longer drive out in front of suspects when joining pursuits to try and "block" the suspect (weirdly enough this was an intentional feature)
AI units are more tame and will follow the suspect in a line (especially when tactics are disabled)
AI units no longer crash into each other constantly during pursuits to fight for a position
AI units do their best to stay behind the suspect vehicle, they do not try and drive out in front of the suspect to block them
The default LSPDFR pursuit menu works properly now, if tactics are disabled, AI units do not try and pit the suspects, they will only move in for pits when tactics are enabled.
AI units slow down for you if you try and pass them to take primary, and if you want the AI to take primary you pull over and let them pass (you need to make a complete stop on your car or else it may look a bit buggy)
 
NOTE: Tactics in the pursuit menu are usually enabled by default when the pursuit starts, so make sure to disable it if you do not want AI to go for pits.
 
KNOWN ISSUES: Sometimes, even though you disable tactics in the pursuit menu, the AI will still try and pit the suspect, this can be fixed by simply cycling the tactics between enabled and disabled. 
 
To get the best result from this mod, I recommend you install AI Traffic Fluidity and Discipline (link to the mod below). if you do not install it, you may not get the same results that I did. But it is not required, this mod will work just fine without it.

Grappler brings a whole new way to tackle vehicles fleeing from you. 

I want to give a HUGE thanks to @RogueThunder for making the grappler model and @Scorpionfam for making the lowering animation. Without the help of these devs this plugin would not have been possible. 
This plugin is set up to use custom made props, meaning it will work with any police vehicle you want. You just need to configure the offset for the vehicle you're using and save it. The offsets will save to an xml file so you won't have to remake the offset every time.
Using the plugin is very simple, once its set up in the right position, just press the key defined in the ini to deploy it, and then you can grapple any vehicle you want. Once everything is complete, press the same key again while in the vehicle to reset it.

What is a grappler?
 
Tutorials and showcases:
 
Console Commands:
- SpawnGrappler
- GrapplerConfigureOffset
- GrapplerUpdateSettings

Requirements:
- RageNativeUI
 
Future Plans:
- A more immersive way to reset the grapplers rope involving animations
- A way for vehicle devs to make modeled on grapplers compatible with this plugin through dummies and animations

This mod changes the accuracy of all Ai peds in the game and makes their accuracy more realistic. They no longer hit every single shot at almost every range. Since this is a .meta file change and not a plugin, this has ZERO impact on the games performance. Based on my testing, this SHOULD also affect LSPDFR backup Ai too, however I am still not 100% sure as it's hard to tell sometimes.
 
How this mod will change Ai's accuracy (compared to the default GTA values):
  Ai across the board will be 25% less accurate when shooting 
  Ai will be less accurate when shooting at someone who is driving in a car (Prepare to get your tires popped more often in armed suspect pursuits since they are less likely to hit you)
  LSPDFR/Police Ai accuracy was also lowered to make them more likely to miss shots, however they still have better aim than suspects and other types of Ai.
  There also seems to be an "accuracy boost" system in the game, which I have messed with, so the farther you are from a ped, the less likely they are to hit you. 
 
Feel free to leave feedback/opinions about the changes, based on the feedback, I may update this in the future to further change Ai's accuracy. Just don't be that guy that takes only one shots fired call, get hit multiple times up because you're really close to the suspect, and then say their aim is still too strong, ty.

Grappler brings a whole new way to tackle vehicles fleeing from you. 

I want to give a HUGE thanks to @RogueThunder for making the grappler model and @Scorpionfam for making the lowering animation. Without the help of these devs this plugin would not have been possible. 
This plugin is set up to use custom made props, meaning it will work with any police vehicle you want. You just need to configure the offset for the vehicle you're using and save it. The offsets will save to an xml file so you won't have to remake the offset every time.
Using the plugin is very simple, once its set up in the right position, just press the key defined in the ini to deploy it, and then you can grapple any vehicle you want. Once everything is complete, press the same key again while in the vehicle to reset it.

Star Chase Tracker
What is a Star Chase Tracker?
A Star Chase Tracker is a GPS tracking device that launches from a police vehicle and attaches to a suspect’s vehicle. This allows officers to safely abort a high-speed pursuit and apprehend the suspect once they come to a stop.

This plugin lets you fire a tracker from the player's police vehicle.
It comes with a custom tracker model, which must be installed as a dlcpack.
The StarChaseTracker.ini config file gives you several options for customization.
 
 
How to install
1. Go to 'Grand Theft Auto V/plugins' and drag and drop the 'plugins' folder in your main gta folder.
2. Open the 'Dlcpack' folder and install the 'starchase' folder in 'mods/update/x64/dlcpacks' with OpenIV.
3. Go to 'mods/update/update.rpf/common/data/dlclist.xml' and add a new line:
<Item>dlcpacks:/starchase/</Item>

Immersive Ambient Events is an ambient events plugin designed to fill in gaps of your patrol where nothing happens for long periods of time, without interfering with callouts, pursuits, pullovers, or anything else you may be doing!

Important: Due to how the severe weather event works, the game time cannot be frozen, or else the event will never end, there is a workaround in the FAQ below.
 
Events:
- Aggressive Driver
- Drunk Driver
- Gas Leak
- Hotboxing
- Severe Weather
- Vehicle BOLO
- Vehicle Trouble
- Speeding
- Street Racing
- Driver on Phone
- Drug Deal
- Drinking On Beach
 
Features:
- Timer System:
The plugins timer system constantly checks if you're available for calls and not doing anything significant. If you accept a callout or do anything else that would make the plugin consider you busy (Get into a pursuit, start a traffic stop, or otherwise set yourself as not available for calls) the plugins timer system stops and resets to the time you specify in the ini file, and it doesn't start again until you are no longer busy. Only one event in this plugin spawns at a time (with the exception of the Vehicle BOLO event, more on this below), to avoid overloading you with things to do. 
 
- Two Menus:
The plugins menu allows you to customize all your ini values in game, and save them to the ini file. It even allows you to change the keybinds for the menu in game! The menu also has multiple other uses, like interacting with peds in specific events through the interaction submenu. 
The plugin also has a second menu, which can be accessed in the RPH F4 console using the command "IAEOpenForceEventMenu" This second menu will allow you to forcefully spawn any event in the plugin, as well as forcefully end the current event that's active.
 
- Error Handling System:
We've all been there, you're enjoying a nice patrol on LSPDFR, then suddenly one plugin has an error and it crashes LSPDFR. This plugin has an error handling system that will help prevent that from happening! If for any reason an error happens within the plugin, a notification will be displayed, notifying you that an error occurred, it will log the error, and it will prevent a full LSPDFR crash. If the error happens to come from an ambient event and not one of the plugins backend systems, the plugin will log the error, display a notification, and forcefully end the event and continue on spawning new events like nothing happened. However, this system is not full-proof, so there is still a (small) chance that LSPDFR might crash if there's an error. I will continue to improve this system in future updates. 
 
- In Depth Vehicle BOLO System:
One of the events, Vehicle BOLO, saves between game sessions. Meaning that if you don't catch the guy during your patrol and get off LSPDFR, that exact same suspect(s) and vehicle will be there waiting for you in the same BOLO the next time you hop on. There's even a chance that an AI unit could locate the BOLO suspect and initiate a pursuit. Pay close attention to the details regarding the crime, as it can hint as to how the suspect will react when trying to be pulled over. This event is designed to be as randomized as possible for maximum replayability, even the amount of details you get on the vehicle is randomized. Sometimes you may get the make and model, sometimes maybe the make and a partial plate, etc etc. "But what if I have custom vehicles installed that replaces AI traffic?" Well I have good news for you, I included a file (bolomodels.json) within the Immersive Ambient Events folder that allows you to customize the names of the make, model, and class of vehicles in the notification. With this file you can even add new vehicles to the list of vehicles used in the event. Because this event usually lasts long periods of time, it runs on its own timer that's independent from the other ambient events. 

- Realistic Severe Weather Event:
No more patrols where the weather stays the exact same unless you manually change it. With the severe weather event, a storm (or blizzard if the current weather is a snow based one) can roll in at any moment, and even have the potential to knock out power across the map, making it extremely dark if it happens to be late at night. Hopefully your vehicle has spotlights or takedowns! 

FAQ:
How can I patrol during a specific time of day while having the severe weather event enabled?:
In simpletrainer, go to the time settings, and enable "Real Time Duration" what this does is it makes one minute in game the same as one minute in real life. Then you can change the ini setting for the severe weather event and set "HoursItLasts" to 0, and set the minutes option to be however long you want the storm to last. 
 
How can I tell when an ambient event is happening?:
Events will either display a notification of some sort, or a yellow question mark blip will appear on the minimap where the event is happening.
 
The question mark blip for an event disappeared when I got close to the event or exited my vehicle, is this normal?:
Yes, most events automatically delete the blip once you get close enough to be considered participating in the event, the events also take into consideration whether you're on foot or not before deleting the blip as well.
 
Why is the "Interaction" item on the plugins menu greyed out?: 
The interaction submenu is only enabled whenever there's an active event that uses it. If it is greyed out, that means no event that uses that system is active.

Why am I not getting updated sightings for the Vehicle BOLO event?:
For the Vehicle BOLO event, you need to be set as available for calls for the blip to update and for you to receive a notification. By default the event is set up to not show updated sighting notifications unless you are within 1000 meters of the area, however this can be changed in the BOLO event section of the plugins menu
 
Why can't I pull over the vehicle involved with the Vehicle Trouble event?: 
This is done on purpose, to prevent the pullover from interfering with tasks given to the driver. Don't worry, this is temporary and once the event is finished, you can pull that driver over if needed!

This mod is also compatible with RansomAmbience!

Future Plans:
- Many new ambient events

This mod improves the behavior AI backup in pursuits. Tired of seeing AI constantly and randomly go for pits on suspects? Tired of seeing AI drive out in front of a suspect for no reason and cause a major accident? Well I was, the default LSPDFR pursuit menu (keybind is N by default) seemed to be very inconsistent with its ability to stop backup units from utilizing tactics such as pits on AI, so I decided to fix that. With this mod installed, you now have complete control over when backup units go in for a pit on the suspect vehicle (by utilizing the pursuit menu and enabling/disabling tactics, which actually works properly now!). AI is also a bit more tame, when tactics are disabled, AI will just follow the suspect in a proper line. backup AI units will even slow down for you if you attempt to take primary, and they do not fight you for primary position in a pursuit. This mod does not change suspect AI, or any AI that is not labeled as police.
 
What this mod does:
AI units no longer drive out in front of suspects when joining pursuits to try and "block" the suspect (weirdly enough this was an intentional feature)
AI units are more tame and will follow the suspect in a line (especially when tactics are disabled)
AI units no longer crash into each other constantly during pursuits to fight for a position
AI units do their best to stay behind the suspect vehicle, they do not try and drive out in front of the suspect to block them
The default LSPDFR pursuit menu works properly now, if tactics are disabled, AI units do not try and pit the suspects, they will only move in for pits when tactics are enabled.
AI units slow down for you if you try and pass them to take primary, and if you want the AI to take primary you pull over and let them pass (you need to make a complete stop on your car or else it may look a bit buggy)
 
NOTE: Tactics in the pursuit menu are usually enabled by default when the pursuit starts, so make sure to disable it if you do not want AI to go for pits.
 
KNOWN ISSUES: Sometimes, even though you disable tactics in the pursuit menu, the AI will still try and pit the suspect, this can be fixed by simply cycling the tactics between enabled and disabled. 
 
To get the best result from this mod, I recommend you install AI Traffic Fluidity and Discipline (link to the mod below). if you do not install it, you may not get the same results that I did. But it is not required, this mod will work just fine without it.

This mod changes the accuracy of all Ai peds in the game and makes their accuracy more realistic. They no longer hit every single shot at almost every range. Since this is a .meta file change and not a plugin, this has ZERO impact on the games performance. Based on my testing, this SHOULD also affect LSPDFR backup Ai too, however I am still not 100% sure as it's hard to tell sometimes.
 
How this mod will change Ai's accuracy (compared to the default GTA values):
  Ai across the board will be 25% less accurate when shooting 
  Ai will be less accurate when shooting at someone who is driving in a car (Prepare to get your tires popped more often in armed suspect pursuits since they are less likely to hit you)
  LSPDFR/Police Ai accuracy was also lowered to make them more likely to miss shots, however they still have better aim than suspects and other types of Ai.
  There also seems to be an "accuracy boost" system in the game, which I have messed with, so the farther you are from a ped, the less likely they are to hit you. 
 
Feel free to leave feedback/opinions about the changes, based on the feedback, I may update this in the future to further change Ai's accuracy. Just don't be that guy that takes only one shots fired call, get hit multiple times up because you're really close to the suspect, and then say their aim is still too strong, ty.

You don't need to download anything, just modify a file with OpenIV.
 
After installing martinct's German Shepherd / Malinois - K9 Dog (link below) I've noticed that this k9 model was spawning randomly around the world, so I made a fix:
 
 
If you don't want to see this model being spawned in the world, used by peds as a pet, go to
mods/update/update.rpf/common/data/ai/ambientpedmodelsets.meta:
and search for       <Name>ANIMAL_DOG_SHEPHERD</Name>
 
You will see this:
 
 
Two Options:
 
1. Replace the model (some people have issues having the new replaced dog model spawning still with the vest on, dunno why this issue is, I think due to be using another k9 model mod). 
 
 
...
    <Item type="CAmbientModelSet">
      <Name>ANIMAL_DOG_SHEPHERD</Name>
      <Models>
        <Item>
          <Name>A_C_shepherd</Name>             REPLACE TO         <Name>A_C_Rottweiler</Name>       FOR EXAMPLE
          <Variations type="NULL" />
          <Probability value="1.000000" />
        </Item>
...
 
or
 
2. Set to 0 the spawn probability to make it not spawn at all. Works for everyone.
 
 
    <Item type="CAmbientModelSet">
      <Name>ANIMAL_DOG_SHEPHERD</Name>
      <Models>
        <Item>
          <Name>A_C_shepherd</Name>
          <Variations type="NULL" />
          <Probability value="1.000000" />             SET TO         <Probability value="0.000000" />       TO NOT SPAWN AT ALL
        </Item>
 

Retriever. Using martinct mod I can replace the model without any issues, tried this with a fresh k9 mod install. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Here is a list of the 6 dogs (excluding Chop and Border Collie) that you can also try to replace to.
