Blu's Designs reacted to Cyan in Marking AI Content on Your FilesGenerative AI is being used more and more in mod creation, and we believe transparency around its use is important. While AI offers exciting new possibilities, we understand that not everyone wants to engage with AI-made content. We hope that clear disclosure helps everyone make an informed choice before downloading a mod, and makes it easy to filter out AI-made content.
Starting today, we’re rolling out a new AI disclosure system. It allows authors to disclose the extent of their AI usage, and to be specific about which parts of a mod were AI-made or AI-assisted.
The following AI disclosure options are available:
Description
Tick this if your description was generated or rewritten/refined using AI.
We would also like to note: if you use AI to help write your description in any way, please make sure you verify all claims about your mod. We’re seeing an increase in AI-written descriptions that mention features the mod doesn’t actually include, so this is now enforced under our File Guidelines.
Images
Tick this if any images on your mod page were generated or edited/refined using AI.
Mod & Mod Content
Minor: AI helped with small refinements to the mod or its content (for example: using a chatbot/agent for assistance, or generating assets used in the mod).
Moderate: AI contributed more than 50% of the mod’s content (code, images, data, etc.).
Significant: AI created most or all of the mod (for example: full generation). Tick this as well if you wouldn’t have been able to make the mod without AI.
Some light use doesn’t need disclosure — for example, basic autocomplete or bouncing ideas off an AI.
Disclosures will appear below the file description. If you've ticked Mod & Mod Content, you will be asked for a 'Reason'. You should enter more information (why and how AI is being used) in here.
If you select Mod & Mod Content at Moderate or Significant, your file will also be tagged with the “ai” tag. This makes it easier for the community to filter AI-involved mods if they want to, and makes AI usage clear at a glance.
This is now required for new submissions, and we ask that creators also start updating their submissions if they have an AI disclosure to make. We'd like to request that all disclosures are made by the end of February.
We are hoping we do not have to enforce this too broadly, and creators will come forward and be honest about their work. There are ways of detecting AI work in images, description and content and our moderation team will kindly remind you to make a disclosure if they receive a report of AI work that looks valid. If our staff feel that the AI disclosure is inaccurate or incomplete, files may be hidden until we believe they are in compliance. Making inaccurate AI disclosures may also lead to negative reputation by our automated approval systems.
This is a first step toward balancing the new possibilities AI brings with individual preferences and a changing modding landscape.
Thanks for helping us keep things clear and transparent for everyone.
And to support that same goal of clarity and choice, we’ll be sharing more soon about global filtering options for mod discovery. Separately, we’ll also have some news to share shortly regarding the new LCPDFR.com website API.

Blu's Designs reacted to Cyan in Community Team Openings and ChangesIt's been a while since we actively recruited staff, 2017(!) and well before the COVID-19 pandemic swept the world. But LCPDFR.com hasn't stopped growing in this time and is bigger than ever. That's why today we're announcing some changes to the team to allow us to scale more and to invite you to get involved.
Community Team Structure
Our Community Team has previously operated with a large scope and our moderators have been expected to moderate the entire site. This means anything from member disagreements, to credits concerns on a file, to approving files to someone spreading inaccurate information on LSPDFR support forums.
As LCPDFR.com has undergone a massive expansion in terms of community, mod and support growth; this has led to increased burden on our Management & Community teams including people working on particular parts of the website they may not be entirely familiar with or may not interest them. We also have not recruited to replace moderators which have left us in the previous years, further increasing this burden.
One of the changes we're making today, along with recruiting new Community Team members, is to make two new more specific moderation roles.
Support Moderator
This position is for those who are active within our support forums and are willing to help keep them tidy. This includes making sure posts are made in the correct support sub forum, preventing users from hijacking posts (posting their own problem in someone else's thread), preventing necro posts (posting in a thread that has not had activity for a significant amount of time), posting solutions to common problems, seeking more information from users seeking support (asking for logs, etc.), and marking threads as "solved" when a solution is found.
Support moderators will be expected to have general knowledge of common LSPDFR, RPH, and GTA V issues and their solutions and have basic troubleshooting skills.
File Moderator
This position is for those who are active within the downloads section and are familiar with modding GTA V. You do not necessarily need to know how to code or model, but have skills in determining when files are ripped or stolen. Duties include reviewing files that are held for manual approval and ensuring they follow our File Guidelines, investigating mods that may be stolen and referring these to Community Moderators, and keeping the downloads section of the site tidy (making sure files are posted in the correct category, all files have proper credits, etc.).
Applications & Getting Involved
Do the new roles above appeal to you? We're excited to build the Community Team further and would like to invite anyone who is interested to fill out a short form, expressing their interest. We need applicants to be at least 18 years old, able to use Discord & Slack for training and communication. Whilst we don't have strict activity guidelines, we do expect moderators to keep up with reports and internal discussions.
If you think that you'd like to get involved with LCPDFR.com by volunteering some of your free time to moderating our community, please submit an application to us using the following link:
http://lcpd.fr/staffapp
Applications close Monday 30th October midnight GMT.

Blu's Designs reacted to Rabbit GTA V Development in Emergency Distributors ScamI spoke with Razer about this in October of last year. ED posted a picture of his modifications to razers TRX on Facebook. I sent a screenshot to razer and he confirmed that it was is trx, noting that ED was banned a while ago and should not have access to it. I know what he's done because I've witnessed it first hand. I can't speak on GM because I don't know what exactly happened but if youre saying that he had access to his models when he wasn't supposed to then paid when he got caught well if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck well then it's a..... Fact of the matter is, the guy is a POS and needs to go.
He's gotten away with it for far too long and it's communities like this who won't do crap because it'll be lost revenue.
Funny how I get "warned" for links in my descriptions but his are still up. It's a double standard and selective enforcement at best.

Blu's Designs reacted to Back12 in Emergency Distributors ScamHow is it scummy to post a private conversation but not scummy to scam people left and right. We are only trying to show the facts cause if we didn't yall would be saying ok where are the messages.
-
Blu's Designs reacted to Rabbit GTA V Development in Emergency Distributors ScamThat's funny because ED posted a picture of razers Ram TRX he modified on Facebook which he would of not had access to since he was banned already. I asked Razer on Discord and he confirmed it (also have screenshots to prove it) so yes he has used leaks. He never released the TRX publicly but still doesn't make it right.

Blu's Designs reacted to Him1250 in Emergency Distributors ScamIt's fucked up the community has come to this point. I understand the concept behind making money for paid vehicles, hell I do it myself. It's really low for someone to scam multiple people and then give them the big ol' middle finger but I am not surprised, this is the GTA community after all. Hasn't changed in the 10 years I've been active..
-
Blu's Designs reacted to Rabbit GTA V Development in Emergency Distributors ScamTypical attitude from ED. He's known to use leaks as well. He needs to be banned from this website like MU but he has the staff here protecting him so that'll never happen.

Blu's Designs reacted to unitedOrange66 in Emergency Distributors ScamWhen such scammers upload content on the site with the possible motivation of promoting paid assets, it should raise a red flag. And staff members can at least archive or remove such uploads if reported by a concerned player.
If LSPDFR does indeed have a strict rule against purchasing goods and services, in addition to educating players to be cautious, sellers/promotors should also face certain consequences by promoting their access and thereby committing a rule violation.
Obviously, the buyer is at fault for even falling for such scams, being careless having no common sense, etc. But if the buyer was scammed by scammers via LSPDFR website, or any site that has a rule against exchange for goods; then you cannot say "We can't do anything about it," because this gives you the accusation/charge of "Being an accessory of a scamming scheme." Since you are a if not main; direct, or indirect traffic source, and the host.
Your failure to act accordingly in response to an ongoing scamming scheme resulted in several users from your site suffering personal financial loss, that, you cannot plea "Not Liable."
Back a couple of months ago, or even a year ago, I already suspected this "vehicle mods creator" advertising his stuff on LSPDFR. He would upload a few car mods in "vehicle models," and post something like "contact us for paid custom models" in the description, then disable comments to prevent any communications in public.
The sole purpose of this act is to lure players into their scamming scheme, and therefore promote their scams so more victims will fall for it, via LSPDFR's official website.

Dear all,
As many of you will have noticed, my activity in the LSPDFR scene has decreased significantly over the past few months. There are many reasons for this, the details of which I won't bore you with. It mostly comes down to being busy with other things in my life, as well as LSPDFR becoming less interesting for me having played it for so long and the introduction of frameworks allowing modded GTA5 multiplayer environments.
How times have changed since when I joined the community in 2015, from me taking an interest in learning to code in C# to having multiple plugins released on the site. It's been one heck of a journey here. I recall well the first 'mod' I uploaded for the LSPDFR community, which was called 'More Jail Points' at the time. This was first published for RAGEPluginHook 0.20. This later evolved into 'More Jail Points & Prisoner Transporter' and is now known as the all-so-familiar Arrest Manager. When I was contacted by @dbock1989, who was so enthusiastic about my More Jail Points & Prisoner Transporter plugin at the time, I couldn't quite believe it. He had been so kind as to create a variety of images related to the plugin (see below)! It frankly couldn't have been a more exciting moment at the time and, alongside other overwhelmingly positive and welcoming feedback, served as a major motivation factor for me to continue learning to code and create plugins.
Following this, I was looking to give more purpose to the LSPDFR traffic stop system. And so, Traffic Policer was born - a plugin originally intended to add a few ambient events related to traffic offences. This has now grown into one of my most feature-packed plugins to date. By this time, some YouTubers started using my plugins in their videos. Not only was this a great way for me to obtain feedback on my mods' user experience, I also watched @Zachary Houseknecht with great pleasure while my ANPR Hit AI lit many of his police vehicles on fire... An absolute howler: https://youtu.be/4D8HshZzWMQ?t=606
Some weeks on and Assorted Callouts was next in line. This was originally created out of a callout idea by @CaptainSugarFree and turned into what is now known as the Pacific Bank Heist. This took about 4 weeks of intensive development to fully complete (and am I shocked at the code quality looking back at it now... works though). As the first of its kind, the callout featured voice-overs and an intense, detailed SWAT based LSPDFR callout. I was incredibly proud for this to be featured on @Jeff Favignano's channel and I see now that the video in question has amassed over 1.9 million views... breathtaking. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eIXKvUyzylA
Moving on again. At this point, @FinKone had managed to get me into YouTube. After having released British Policing Script, longing for an LSPDFR experience closer to home for me, many longed a version of the plugin for international and American users to incorporate the traffic stop improvements and a court system. With that, I released LSPDFR+ by doing my first ever YouTube live stream, which was quite the experience. After this, I released Siren Mastery, PoliceSmartRadio and a variety of other tools and smaller plugins. Many hours of coding, effort, stress, giving support and obtaining feedback had been put in by this point. I was absolutely chuffed to then achieve one million downloads on my published files...
This figure has since risen to over five million.
Following some negative coverage of LSPDFR in some of the Australian media, I'm also very happy that Wired UK decided to publish an overwhelmingly positive article on the whole GTA5 police modding scene: https://www.wired.co.uk/article/gta-5-mods-lsdpfr-british-police?utm_content=buffer9ca53
After PoliceSmartRadio's release - with the infamous April FoolsRadio download giving four thousand people a perhaps frustratingly good laugh - I placed the whole modding scene lower in my priority list. As mentioned previously, this has since been pushed far further down.
Some thoughts on the community's development over time
I would describe the LSPDFR community as healthy. @Sam @LMS and all the other contributors have created something very special for all the right reasons and this is largely reflected in the attitudes of the staff & moderation team and community members. With publishing mods on a popular website like this, unfortunately, comes some drama and negativity - and while I have not always agreed with the way and speed the moderation team dealt with my reports relating to me and my work, they have done a good job overall. The few issues that I experienced were all resolved. From my experience in the plugin side of the modding scene, this continues to be the case now.
One thing I noted during the months that passed is that both experienced but particularly newer modders are now frequently treated with disdain in the scene. The modding scene has grown massively since when I first started and unfortunately, in this area, it shows. Everyone starts somewhere and the fact someone is spending their free time creating something for all of you to download, for free, has become massively underappreciated and taken for granted. Sure, a new modders' release may be full of bugs and be nowhere near as feature-rich as more developed plugins, but this takes time to solve. Had I received the negative feedback I've seen on many a new modder's release page back in 2015, you can rest assured I wouldn't have continued my development here. When providing feedback, by all means, point out the issues, but do so in a friendly, constructive manner, not in an entitled, toxic one. Have a look at the first few comments on my Arrest Manager download page to see what that is like - this was a major factor for me to consider continuing development! It is essential for the development of the LSPDFR modding community that this attitude is changed back to what it was in the 'good old days'.
With all that said, I also hope the release of LSPDFR 0.4 kicks a breath of fresh air into the now somewhat stale core LSPDFR modification. With over 2 years having passed since the latest update of the core modification, I'm sure we all agree that an update would be a very welcome step. From the various preview posts released by the development team, it looks that we all have something great to look forward to there.
'Retirement'? So does that mean you're permanently done with the LSPDFR modding scene?
No, but I won't be actively developing plugins for LSPDFR any more. To be fair, nothing's really changing much now compared to the past few months. I intend to remain as a member of the LSPDFR Testing Team and I'm sure I'll be drawn back in at some point to explore some of the new development options in the 0.4 API. I'll also stay around on my discord and occasionally the forums and I intend to continue publishing occasional videos on my Youtube channel. If my time and motivation levels allow, I may publish some minor updates to my current mods before 0.4 is released. The fact remains, however, that I would currently classify myself as 'inactive' in the scene. With so much other stuff going on, I simply don't have the time to commit that I used to. It would be a pity to say the least to let all my work slowly deteriorate and waste away. Therefore, I've decided to publish the source code to some of my plugins to https://github.com/Albo1125/. At the very least, I would like it to be a learning resource for other ambitious plugin developers in the scene. At best, I hope other developers will take it upon themselves to improve the code where necessary (yes it is very necessary!) and create pull requests to share those improvements. These can then be merged and released, with credits obviously included for contributors.
Back when I started developing for LSPDFR, very few learning resources were available bar the great example project by @LukeD . This hasn't really changed since, despite the creation of the LSPDFR API repository by LMS (https://github.com/LMSDev/LSPDFR-API) and some posts aiming to document the LSPDFR functions by myself in the API development subforum. A noteable step was the creation of the LSPDFR Developers Discord server thanks to @Stealth22 A full post with current development resources can be found here:
I'm planning to publish the source code to a number of my plugins one-by-one to improve this and give something to the community:
Arrest Manager: https://github.com/Albo1125/Arrest-Manager Assorted Callouts: https://github.com/Albo1125/Assorted-Callouts Albo1125.Common: https://github.com/Albo1125/Albo1125-Common Traffic Policer: https://github.com/Albo1125/Traffic-Policer LSPDFR+: https://github.com/Albo1125/LSPDFRPlus British Policing Script: https://github.com/Albo1125/British-Policing-Script
By no means do I claim that any of the code I post is perfect or amazing - on the contrary, far from it. With the experience I have now gained, reading through some of my old code makes me want to tear my hair out. This is only to be expected, though - most of my plugins were created as part of my learning experience of C#. Prior to this, I had no coding experience or knowledge. It's fascinating to see how the quality of my code has evolved over time by looking at my various different plugins in order of initial release date.
Wrapping up. I hope this post provides some clarification and closure for those of you wondering where on earth I've been over the past few months. It's been an absolute blast and a pleasure. To all of you who were a part of my journey here, thank you.

Blu's Designs reacted to Will in Rules for This SectionLooking to get a custom mod created? You've come to the right place. Whether you're looking for a vehicle, texture, ped, audio, or any other modification, you can ask someone to make one right here.
There are a few rules, however.
You may certainly:
✅ Ask for any type of modification to be made.
✅ Bump your topic ONCE after 30 DAYS if no one has replied or otherwise offered to help (violating this rule will get your topic removed!). You may do this once.
You may not:
❌ Make requests for clan packs. If your clan needs a pack, feel free to say so on your profile or in your signature.
❌ Request ripped copies of someone else's work.
❌ Request mods that you intend to be private and thus will not be shared with the public.
❌ Create threads looking for mods that have already been made (please use the GTA V Modding Discussion & Information forum for that).
❌ Offer to pay for mods. We can't ensure the privacy or security of anyone attempting money transfers, and we therefore do not want to allow it.
