Thank you thank you! I look forward to some others contributing here as well just like you did. Thanks again!

Hey Twuben! Thanks for all the kind words I really appreciate it. The dispatch CAD is mostly finished and I've only recently began on the ingame one. I was going to pretty much make this whole thing free because I don't see a point in selling it. LSPDFR and FiveM is free for everyone to enjoy...so why not this too? Doesn't seem fair to the player who's just trying to have an immersive experience. I'll definitely reach out when it's in the official testing stages. Right now, it's working and whatnot but the UI is very early 2000's in the dispatch app. Definitely wanna polish that up prior to letting anyone test...screenshot attached.

Hi @Twuben Thanks so much for reaching out and giving me some solid input!! My feature list may be a bit bigger (maybe?) than other CADs out there. Mine is basically an in-game FiveM UI that works when a user is inside a police car. It uses the UI model of the laptop inside the police vehicle when you press E. Below are a list of some other features I've been working on too. Police In-Game Immersive MDT: Accessing the CAD from inside the vehicle, not a typical browser. Ability to view active calls in realtime...reactive database which pulls frequently. <-- So this would address your comment in regards to the latency. Call history - a database which stores everything and anything...until you tell it otherwise. Retains all info from all calls ever inputted by dispatch. <-- This addresses your call history piece. Accepting/Detaching from calls. Updating your unit status. Panic Button - when pressed it will literally terrify the dispatcher on the dispatch app...RIP their ears...but this is SERIOUS! BOLO Viewer - List of active BOLO's. Person/Plate lookup - Responsive database which will return results quickly based on information users input about their character. Call details - Shows notes, timelines, and responding units. Incident log - previous calls based on date/time. TTS (text to speech) Announcements - Receive real-time in-game dispatcher audio via NUI playback. Dispatcher Desktop App: Create 911 Calls - with caller info, place, priority, etc View active calls - see officer statuses and what calls they're assigned to. Monitor and update unit statuses - which units are 10-8 and which on are a call. Assign/unassign officers - using a drag and drop method, officers are assigned or removed from calls. Text-to-Speech radio dispatch - Generates a .wav file from call summary and sends to in-game officers. Panic alerts - LOUD audio and popup when a unit hits their panic button. BOLO Manager - Create/edit/view vehicle and suspect bulletins. Call log history - Ability to view closed call details. GTA V In-game LoJack - A reactive UI map that tracks user's positions and updates them via coordinates to the database every 2 seconds and displays onto a map on the dispatch app. Kinda buggy but a WIP. Something worth noting is the heavy focus on police. I'm focusing on police right now as the main one but once a stable build of each of these apps is out, the groundwork previously laid from the police CAD development will make it really easy to integrate fire and medical. I really appreciate your input and I hope, with the above feature list, you can let me know if that's something a lot of other cads have currently or if there are any features you believe players could be without. Thanks again!! Edit: For a bit more context on the latency piece - both the ingame police MDT and the Dispatcher app have the same brain (database). They both pull and push to it. The pull requests are usually every 2-5 seconds which should in theory significantly reduce latency.

Hi all Although my account is new, I’ve been an LCPDFR/LSPDFR fanatic for a decade and a half. I’m taking my dev skills that I’ve used in my professional life in hopes of making something awesome for others to enjoy. That said, I’ve been working on an in game police CAD as well as a dispatch windows application for dispatchers to be immersed in as well. There’s likely hundreds of CADs online, both free and paid. I’m curious from other users what those CADs may be missing. What do those CADs have that you love and what are they missing that would completely immerse you in a policing/firing/medicaling experience? Once I hear some input, I’ll get to developing those features and report back but I’m genuinely just curious. I’ll post updates either in this thread or create another to maybe have people test it. Any answers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone! Edit: This would be for FiveM
