The current plan is to rewrite this script after I'm done with my other projects, just so you guys know.
@Eddlm @0x49 +1 on that one, also nice mod
One of the best mod
I've had the pleasure of meeting you, and this mod is simply the best of all the mods. I use it for everything from task driver to just fucking around. Good job my dude!
A great piece of work Is there a way to change the NOS sound? like which .wav file it uses? ..I've made the same nitrous squeal from
Fast & furious and would like to use that ^^, thank you

@alca969 I'm sorry to interrupt, but what do you mean by "+1"?
@0x49 "+1" means that another person (myself) is agreeing to what you said and would like to see it happen.
@alca969 Oh, I see.
@alca969 I'm having a bit of a problem with my Frame rate. Whenever I go into highly detailed or big areas/maps, my PC has a major fps drop. Is there any way I could change the area to a low detail map so that I don't have any performance drop? I'd like only the small area around my character to be detailed, not an entire chunk of land. Thank you.
@0x49 You can try to reduce view distance, or lower other options in the menu. If that doesn't work try googling "how to reduce map rendering distance" maybe you will find something.

Will you be adding more squads? I would love maybe 8 squads total! Because I have to do squads of 2 to put 2 in each vehicle which limits me to 4 vehicles.
Hi, I'm franche, and with french AZERTY keymaps we use Z key to move forward, is it possible to remap the mod's keys ?
@Eddlm
Word "AGGRESSIVE_INVESTIGATE" doesn't fit in the text box (max of 21 chars supported but written that 60)
How to make my squads to move to the red mark on the map automatically, like when I take calls in the LSPDFR mod.
@Eddlm -- Great to hear that you have intent to rewrite this, especially with all your recent updates across the board! While I consider basically all your mods as essential, this one in particular has been a staple in my game for as long as I can remember, and was the first mod of yours that I ever downloaded. Such a fantastic mod.
Please consider allowing us to add more than two custom vehicles =) Good luck with all your recent updates and projects.
How do I dismiss them without losing my vehicle?
@Grandcentury take your vehicle and after do dismiss
@Globaline
Nice and simple solution, thanks!
WTF the family shoot me
Okay, take my vehicle and drop the squads, then do dismiss, it's work.
When squads are still in my car, betrayal occurs.
Maybe bug or conflict
