So, it's been a while since we've provided an update on LSPDFR 0.4.  As you might've guessed from the title, though, there's a good reason for this...  It has taken us a lot of work to get to this point, and in the last couple of months alone we've made hundreds and hundreds of changes.  Anyway, here we are - who knows how many months late - but we're here.  No riddles, no treasure hunts, no @MSA (at least I'm pretty sure they're not here), but straight to the point!  We can now confirm that we'll be releasing LSPDFR 0.4 in February, 2019.  
 
Anyway... with the scary part out of the way, I wanted to take the opportunity to explain ourselves a little.  No, @LMS wasn't renditioned to an IAA black site, no I didn't fall victim to the Orbital Cannon, and no...  the ghost of @ineseri didn't drive a train into us.  Perfectly plausible scenarios given our silence about 0.4 as of late, but we're actually still alive.  Instead, we've been pretty busy rushing to the finish line as far as 0.4 is concerned, and to complement the big news above, we thought we'd throw in a couple of sweeteners below to show just how much 0.4 is going to change things. 
 
We've talked a lot about our Character system in LSPDFR 0.4.  It's one of the biggest changes to the mod, but we also think it represents an entirely new direction in general.  I say this because, not only does it allow us to have a bunch of really cool stuff natively integrated into the mod, like customizing a character, but it also lets us have a bunch of other really cool stuff natively integrated into the mod!  Having your own character dials up the immersion quite substantially, but we wanted to take things to another level.  We thought, for example, wouldn't it be cool if instead of spawning as Franklin in Franklin's house, you could instead, say, I don't know?  Actually spawn as your own character, in their house.  Or maybe, instead of switching to Trevor and your camera panning down to him being pursued by the LSPD, you could switch to one of your other characters, and "Google Earth" down to them being the LSPD. 
 
LSPDFR 0.4 introduces a fully functional GTA Online Apartment to single-player, complete with transition sequences, working interactions and more Steve Haines than you can handle.
 
It's not just that, though, we really wanted to dial it up.  Having your own character, them having an apartment, switching, customizing, it's all cool, right?  But you might be thinking, what's the point?  These are "multiplayer features".  And sure, LSPDFR is and most likely always will be a single-player mod, but that doesn't mean we can't think outside of the box every once in a while. 
 
Recently, @Cyan, in addition to all of her work on the website, has also been developing an all new framework called LSPDFR Sync.  LSPDFR Sync lets you connect up to your LSPDFR.com account in-game, and you can then synchronize your LSPDFR characters with your LSPDFR.com profile.  To top it off, we've brought back statistics too.  Ever wanted to know how many shots your character has fired?  It's as simple as taking a look at your character's profile on the site - which, we should add, you can actually edit.
 

 

 
LSPDFR Sync provides all-new, seamless connectivity with your LSPDFR.com profile.
 
And frankly, it doesn't even end there.  When I said before that we wanted to dial the immersion up to the max, I guess I lied.  What I actually meant to say was that we'd just ripped the dial clean off the controls, strapped it to a rocket, and sent the damn thing up to the moon.  Not only can you now create a character, customize them, share them, spawn as them...  You can actually do things as them too!  Like, actual game things.  Ever wanted to run the triathalon as your LSPDFR Character?  Now you can.  Or, how about practicing with your sidearm down at the range?  Yep, got that too.  Simply want a can of sprunk from a vending machine?  No problem.
 

 
With the introduction of a new innovative system by @LMS, it's now possible to do many of the single-player minigames while playing as your LSPDFR Character.
 
Of course, with the Character system, and all of the features that come with it, being such a huge part of LSPDFR 0.4 it'd be easy to forget that this is a police mod.  Indeed, I think we almost did given the grotesquely gargantuan amount of work that has gone into it.  Fear not, though, as we have also been working on some incredible new gameplay features too, including massive improvements to interaction with suspects and people that you arrest.
 
LSPDFR 0.4 introduces, in a game-changing way, the ability to take hold of and drag arrested suspects.  Yes, we know that there's some great API mods which have held the fort, and we're grateful for that, but this is something we wanted to get absolutely right, and indeed, we think the result is simply stunning.  The possibilities are pretty far-reaching too and encompass just about everything from shoving suspects up against cruisers, to personally escorting them into their cells.  
 

 

 
No, these aren't cutscenes.  No, they're not edited screenshots.  With 0.4, this is real.

This is an issue with ELS.  Go into the ELS INI and look for "ELSTrafCTRL", set to false.

Yep, in this case you'd only need to replace files in patchday3ng.

You must be installing the cars to the wrong vehicals.rpf`s .They are all spread out in the directory.  Police1/police4 are in {X64e}, sheriff1 sheriff2 and police 2 are in {Patchday3} , And police 3 is in {Patchday 4}. That`s the weird way to do it. Most ppl use Mod folders.

Police Radio by @Albo1125, @DCP1293 & @FinKone has been updated to work with LSPDFR 0.3.

Thank you! This fixed it :)

Make sure you have PoliceIgnorePlayer disabled in any trainers.

Happy birthday! 

Haha hey my birthday too! Have a good one! :-)

Thank you! :-)

Nice videos, glad to see more people making LCPDFR videos. I subbed! 

Because teenagers like to have sex.
 
And I wouldn't be concerned, because it's not my problem. Until she says the three magical words. ''Babe I'm Pregnant.'' That's when you should not only be concerned, but off the charts concerned.

I figured out my problem. If anybody cares or has the same problem I did, I could let you know, just ask. :-)

Working on a new set of Fed Sig SS2000 rumbler sirens used by the NYPD. I know some have probably been done, but this one aims to be as authentic as possible (siren tones fit in with each other, loop properly etc.) Comes with the brand new manual tone that appears to be used by all vehicles fitted from 2013+. (Replaces the bullhorn so you can tap it between tones)
 
Examples of use:
2012 Chevrolet Imaplas 2014 Ford Fusion 2014 Ford Interceptor (Taurus) and more...

RELEASED NEW 2015 TAHOE

I'm putting this in this section due to airsoft being a sport.
 
As an airsoft player, I honestly despise the blazing orange tips that come on all rifles and guns. There are two sides to this:
 
The orange tip helps LEOs identify the guns are not real-steel firearms. (Public View) The orange tips do not have to legally be on the airsoft guns for shipping and transporting reasons and can be removed once received. (Airsofters' View)  
 
I honestly believe that if you inform the police/law enforcement in your area that an airsoft war is to be held (Let's say in the woods), that it will help the law enforcement by knowing of what is happening. That is UNLESS someone decides to be stupid and threaten the officer's safety by pointing an airsoft gun or not complying with their requests. This has lead to death in individuals. I am going off of America's laws regarding airsoft and may vary in other countries. 
 
According to Title 15 of the Code of Federal Regulations: (Commerce and Foreign Trade) PART 1150—MARKING OF TOY, LOOK-ALIKE AND IMITATION FIREARMS;
 
§ 1150.3   Approved markings.
(a) A blaze orange...marking permanently affixed to the exterior surface of the barrel, covering the circumference of the barrel from the muzzle end for a depth of at least 6 millimeters.
 
This regulation applies to Commerce and Foreign Trade, NOT ownership by the end user.
 
(In other words, Airsoft guns may not be sold, shipped or received without the approved orange marking, but CAN be taken off when you receive the gun after purchase.)
 
§ 1150.2   Prohibitions.
No person shall manufacture, enter into commerce, ship, transport, or receive any toy, look-alike, or imitation firearm (“device”) covered by this part as set forth in §1150.1 of this part unless such device contains, or has affixed to it, one of the markings set forth in §1150.3 of this part, or unless this prohibition has been waived by §1150.4 of this part.
 
(In other words, it is illegal to ship or transport rifles without an orange tip.)
 
The nice thing is airsoft guns are easily customizable and black and orange tips can be easily interchanged. 
 
This thread isn't to hate on one side or the other, but it is something I'd like to see from people on their argument and reasoning.
 
What is your opinion on orange tips and why?

About a year ago, some teenagers decided to have an airsoft war in the woods in a neighboring city to me. Not realizing what was happening, homeowners called the police because they saw people running around the woods with what they thought were assault rifles. This resulted in a SWAT callout, and they were extremely lucky that the SWAT guy that aimed at them had a magnified scope and saw an orange tip.
 
It's absolutely stupid to run around and aim with what appear to be firearms in public (an orange tip isn't nearly as noticeable as everything else) in the current hysteria over mass shootings going on in the US. People will get killed because of this, and some one might take a life thinking they are defending themselves.
 
I don't have a problem with people doing this without the tip on an actual airsoft field, indoors or on secluded private property, but doing this in public view is begging for trouble. Even with the tip it's hard to tell when you get a call thinking it's a gun.
