Turns out it was my savefile. Got a new game to work, everythings good. Thanks.

Not using any trainers, just LCPDFR and ELS at the moment. As for the save file, if thats the case then Im screwed and have to deal with it. I cant make a new save game for some reason, when i was fiddling with crap earlier I tried multiple times, just crashes upon loading a new game. It most likely could be though, because when I re-installed GTA 4 from steam it used all my files from over 9 months ago, and I had to replace a bunch of stuff so its possible the old save could of carried over.

Hi So recently I re-installed GTA 4, Installing my mods (ELS and lcpdfr), and besides that a visualsettings.dat (to reduce lighting and reflections, causes FPS boost). I've been using them for a while so I dont think they are the cause, but ever since I re-installed I now see random "STOP" barriers spawning on mailboxes and newspaper stands, as well as the middle of the street. Along with that, car washes are spawning on certian sidewalks. Its really odd and I've never had it before, so heres a few screenshots. (Sorry for the large size.) Any knowledge on this or how to fix it would be great. Thanks.

Interesting. Must be only for some poeple, seems to work fine for me. Make sure the AI aren't arresting them when you try to, it could cause a mixture of problems.

I was having the same problem recently, everything I did pretty much crashed me. For one, I suggest using ELS V6.1, in my opinion its MUCH better than 7, being that its more stable, easier to use and the lights actually turn off when the AI get back into their cars. I couldn't use v7, it would crash me whenever calling backup. I had to re-install GTA to get my game to work with lcpdfr, Weirdly it used my rockstar account and saved about 10 scripts i had from months and months ago, I cleared out my folder (After re-installing), and put only ELS v6 and LCPDFR. The logs dont really say much, and that error that advancedhook gave happened once to me before after playing for about an hour. So my suggestion; If you can make a copy of your current GTA folder, and re-install on steam. Try with both folders, and add mods one by one (ELS, Lcpdfr, and whatever else you want). If you play with just lcpdfr you should be able to run for an hour+ without crashes, unless you do something that would cause crashing like call in massive backup. And from your lcpdfr logfile, It looks like its having trouble opening a .wav file (The taser deploy). Make sure you have installed the taser correctly via the Knowledgebase post, and make sure your data folder is NOT set to read only. (Right click on it, uncheck read only, apply, OK). Along with any other folders like LCPDFR, or your whole main directory.

Anything? Its only when I call in backup.

The only thing seeming to crash my game now is calling in backup with ALT + B or ALT + N. The dispatch goes through with saying an officer needs assistance, and right before it finishes the game freezes, then "Grand theft auto IV has stopped working". Thats the only thing seeming to cause the crash right now. Logs attached (Whatever logs I posted were the only ones that were in my folder after crashing), hopefully theres something that can be done. What used to fix this in 0.95 was setting PreLoadAllModels = true however thats no longer in the .ini

Chill pill sam, I edited my post, I said this because theres over 10-15 posts about crashing with 0 views and 0 replies, from a day+ ago, one of mine has not many either. That along with a bunch of other problems, including the taser not functioning. But I'll be one of the patient ones and wait for a fix, as I said. Its a new mod version, lots of new features I'm going to expect it to be buggy, so before thinking that I came at you like an asshat with that, let me re-phrase by reading my edited post.

-snip- Just saw the post about them working on stuff, and thats why they arent replying to some stuff. Continue doing what your doing, it will get fixed eventually. It just really bothers me when an amazing upgrade from the previous mod version comes out but I cant play it due to crashing every 5 minutes.

Alright, it seems like I can start the mod again and it hasnt crashed right away this time. I did however call in backup (Alt B) and that crashed me, so i'm going to mess with the INI a bit. I also dont know the controls, so i'll look at the list. Logs added to original post.

I for one cant even run the mod...I crash at everything i do. (Detaining, frisking, pursuits. etc)

I too am looking for any controls...It seems to be lots of game crashing for me, and I noticed the callout bug...Its switched around or something, they will acknowledge it soon enough.

Hi. Now I would expect the the new release of LCPDFR 1.0 to be very buggy, being so many new changes and it being new...It seems to have for me. So it looks like I crash about every 5 minutes after going on duty, I do have other mods yes but they are all with models (Compontentpeds and bodybags and such, I do have custom cop and car models). for one, I can't arrest people after they are cuffed and detained (Going into the arrow does nothing, with or without them in my holding...Theres no controls list so I dont know any of the newer controls). So yeah, arresting doesn't seem to work for me... Another thing is the taser, Alt+T does nothing, just brings up that marker that changes color on the screen. Its crashed on me 3 times now from doing simple tasks like asking a suspect to stop, to detaining more than one person at a time. I called in for a prisoner transport and that seemed to crash me, this time... So yeah pretty much everything I do causes the game to crash. I was frisking a citizen, a foot pursuit happened to be next to me, as soon as i started frisking that just crashed my game, for the 4th time. everything I do related to the mod keeps crashing me, I'll upload logs though... If anyone has solutions to these yet, Please post them. Otherwise I will wait for an update or something from one of the dev's. Just really seems like crashing to be honest, I'll try not to do a lot at once and "confuse" the game, hopefully it stays running longer :P If there IS a controls list, a link would be nice as well.

Couldnt log in for a few days, website was being slow :p anyways, Thanks a bunch :D works perfect and i rarely get texture loss.

Will try it out next time I get in a multiplayer game and edit post with status. Thanks.

Hi. Well recently Ive been getting some pretty bad texture loss (Roads going low-texture, and the world going invisible as well as the roads). About a week ago this wasnt happening, i am using a modpack (in a clan) so there is quite high-poly cars but before i did a recent system restore this wasnt happening. I may of forgotten to do something but I need solutions. All the stuff on steam forums and youtube is useless and the same (Use commandline, use a cacheclean/memclean etc.) I have a current commandline setup of -renderquality 0 -shadowdensity 0 -shadowquality 0 -vehicledensity 0 -texturequality 0 - -reflectionquality 0 -waterquality 0 - -novblank -norestrictions -availablevidmem 100 -percentvidmem 1.1 -minspecaudio -novsync -refreshrate 60 -noprecache -ReservedApp 0 -memrestrict 943718400 So yeah, I can't find any solution and the roads/buildings go away/invisible after only 5 minutes, usually that took a good half hour to an hour (Which I dont mind opposed to 10 minutes...) Here is an image (Did not take this, got it from google images. Its exactly whats happening though) I have no idea what I can do to really fix it (Upgrading isnt an option right now), so if theres any programs or commandline configs that DO fix this, please post them. Thanks.

Specs? Error messages/crashes? Give more info please...

Well here in 'Murica cops and emergency services speed through lights and stop-signs if its a true emergency (Officer needs backup, Shots fired, Officer down etc.)especially if its in code 3.

Thanks. I'll fiddle around with it and see what works, for now 100 seems to be okay.

Ah perfect :D @c13 So would I increase or decrease the number if I wanted the cops with random lights on to dissapear? Whats a suitable number so they will still spawn for backup or pursuits and such but dissapear shortly after? Thanks for the answers.

Im curretnly trying to figure out if there is a way to make AI's cars disappear after a certain amount of time due to the fact i always re-encounter AI police with flashing lights after a crime scene, backup etc. Thats besides the point, Could somebody explain what the purpose of ClearAiExtrasDist and ClearRandAiExtras is? Kind of sounds somewhat obvious but still would like an explanation on it. Thanks.

So we get LCPDFR 1.0 just about the end of december :D. I say thats a good enough christmas present for all of us. cant wait.

Thats not relevant to this topic. We already had a discussion about that. See '?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>>

There needs to be an option to disable ELS for the AI on a key. I like having ELS on for AI but after they drive off (After a shoot out, pursuit etc) they have their lights still on and I have to get into the other cops car, turn them off and then resume doing my thing. Kind of annoying Everything else looks pretty great ;)

Arrest more than one person at a time, and be able to keep them in the police car (Detain i guess) until your ready to fully arrest them. The option to release them as well incase it was a mistake. I cant wait to see the interior of the police station, with all the suspects and such :D
