Disgarnish

Hot off the release of LSPDFR 0.4 a couple of months ago, we're upping the ante with another update which brings not only sweeping improvements to the LSPDFR 0.4 API, but also some unique features which have long been requested.
 
Originally, the plan was merely to release 0.4.2 as a quick follow-up to 0.4 and 0.4.1 - just simple fixes and changes, plus the API improvements to help developers make the most of 0.4.  Necessary changes, but not really cool enough, right?  So, with that in mind we took a little time to dig back into the archives of LSPDFR and revisit some of our old concepts and ideas.  Now, while some of these are actually in the mod - they're most likely either tucked away as 'easter eggs' or just disabled because they weren't quite right.
 
If you're a connoisseur of traffic stops, for example, you might've noticed that occasionally the unexpected and oh so demoralizing experience of pulling over a federal agent hits you right in the feels as they arrogantly flash their shiny badge, tell you where to stick your comparatively less shiny badge, and drive off.  (If you haven't seen this before, here's a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HNOxZR2ak0M)
 
Originally the plan was to add this as a feature for players to use, but it just didn't quite fit in with 0.3, and we had some trouble with the animation not being quite as fluid as we'd like.  That was then, though, and given that you now play as your own character both on and off duty, we thought it'd be a bit of a must-have now, so we've tidied it up and are introducing it as a player action in 0.4.2.
 

 
With one quick glance at the shimmering shield, her problems are suddenly your problems.  (Note, a custom badge model is shown instead of the default FIB one - you will be able to define custom models to use on a per-agency basis)
 
Now, not only does this look exceedingly awesome, but it serves a practical purpose too.  Available both on and off-duty, showing your badge will clear any wanted level and may also instill the fear of the law in nearby citizens, potentially de-escalating the otherwise unavoidable confrontations that flare when you walk around Mirror Park without the latest iFruit phone, for example!
 
Of course, that's not all.  Continuing with the idea of adding things that are just generally cool, we know that people have wanted a ballistic shield feature in LSPDFR for quite some time.  Sure, you can spawn one with a trainer or download another mod, but it's just not quite the same is it? 
 
We thought it'd be particularly sweet to have it at your fingertips instead, fully integrated with LSPDFR, ready to kick some butt.
 

 
As if being Frank Tenpenny isn't cool enough...
 
Our ballistic shield, accessed from the Interaction Menu, uses our new animation system in 0.4.2 which we think looks absolutely gorgeous.  There's also the freedom to switch between Stealth and Action mode which will vary your pose accordingly, compatibility with most weapons and the potential for future AI support.
 
Oh yeah, did we mention you can actually arrest people at gunpoint while holding a freaking shield?!
 
Keep your eyes open for LSPDFR 0.4.2, coming soon.
 

I am constantly updating this thread with more mods so keep an eye on it. My computer is pretty low spec so if your PC is a beast then add more on top of this list, just remember add one thing at a time and test for as long as possible then add more. Add what suits you and fits your PCs capabilities. That has been my key to getting this far with near perfect stability with play times of up to 2 hours... most of the time. Be warned LSPDFR will break eventually! The .ini files have been tweaked to my preferences which is basically maximum difficulty. Cars that are designed to be fast will get away in pursuits if you're not quick and same goes with the super sprint being tuned down to be a more of a realistic burst of energy so foot pursuits will last longer! I don't play this game to win I play for immersive roleplaying so tweak the settings how you want them if these do not suit you!
 
Plugins & mods list that I am running at the moment with the most stability:
 
Gameplay & Meta:
With just these running and nothing else the game should work almost flawless. It's when you start adding callouts and immersive mods is when LSPDFR becomes very delicate.

Guides & Help:
Use CleanWorld in console ingame (F4) to clear 99% of things in the world.
To reset everything (for example: StopThePed blips and/or backup/ems blips) pause the game and go to select character, select your character and game should reset. Going to Police Station/Apartment should also do the same thing, I think.
It's best not to alt tab during the game load up.

LSPDFR+ - Enhanced Traffic Stops - Court System - Pursuit Improvements
Download: 
 
LSPDFR+ is currently a work in progress. It is a script modification designed to give LSPDFR a slightly richer experience. This is done by overhauling certain LSPDFR features, like the Traffic Stop system, while retaining LSPDFR's basic controls (minimal extra keys required) and smoothness. LSPDFR+ is basically a collection of features that tie in closely with the original LSPDFR and don't fit into my other modifications' theme. It is similar to British Policing Script, but without the 'British' part, I guess 
Currently Planned Features for Initial Release:  
Overhaul LSPDFR's Traffic Stop system to make the interaction more indepth (again, similar to British Policing Script). [Done] Add a highly compatible Court System for details of your suspects' sentencing. [Done] It will include an improved, less lethal Pursuit AI project I've been working on. [Done] Pursuit Tactics menu for the new pursuit AI [Done]. API for other developers to create court cases & more. [Done] Integration with British Policing Script, automatically disabling features British Policing Script already offers, while retaining others. [Done] Statistics Counter. [Done] Prevent UTurns during pursuits. [Done] More indepth Traffic Stop Questioning [Done] Any suggestions I find appealing - please let me know what you'd like to see in the Traffic Stop overhaul in particular.
