What's new?
Description:
While countermeasures have finally made in GTA Online, in GTAV Storymode they just don't work...
This mod fixes this problem allowing dropping flares as defence. They will act just like in GTA Online, attracting incoming missiles.
Installation instructions:
Just press E on the Keyboard or Right on the Gamepad to launch flares if you are in a supported vehicle. There will be a cooldown after each launch (the game will not render properly too many flares…)
By default only Akula, Buzzard Attack Chopper and P-996 Lazer have countermeasures. You can fix that adding tags inside countermeasures.xml:
What's new?
- Missiles will now actually follow flares and not you
- You don't need to own a FlareGun anymore
- Corrected a bug that caused NullReferenceException at startup
- Mod will not handle exceptions no more
- Changed the structure of the xml file and the name of the assembly for future updates

This mod fixes this problem allowing dropping flares as defence. They will act just like in GTA Online, attracting incoming missiles.
Installation instructions:
- Requires the last version of ScriptHookDotNet3!
- Just drop Flares.dll and countermeasures.xml inside scripts folder.

By default only Akula, Buzzard Attack Chopper and P-996 Lazer have countermeasures. You can fix that adding tags inside countermeasures.xml:
- name: name of the vehicle
- offset: distance of the origin to the vehicle, in case of collisions with it (example: Akula)
- flares: number of flares that will be spawned for that vehicle. Should be from 2 to 8

If someone plays GTA Online should know that when you used countermeasures and they are not ready yet, there is a sound played.
If you know where I can find that sound in game files, please let me know.
Thanks.
How to check game version?
Because in Details Tab it's version is 1.0.1868.4
So what is version 1.41, 1.46 etc
@ubaidniazi that’s the latest one
it is not to be mean but it already exists a mod like that and better because it is more realistic and the advantage is that it works for more plane or helicopter the mod is that the '' https: / /fr.gta5-mods.com/scripts/ir-countermeasures '' I tested the two after it is each his taste
@Alex01 that mod deletes every missile when “flares” are launched. They do not attract missiles, they just disappear…
Even mine works with every plane and helicopter, and also with every vehicle you want. You just need to add vehicles in the xml file
Awesome mod; looking forward to future updates
@_Achille I did not know that I did not notice while I tested and you can put the same color as the other mod in place of the illuminating smoke so that it is more realistic?
@Alex01 I will try, but Rockstar made flares that color so I don’t think I can…
@_Achille like that of the mod '' IR Countermeasures '' I find that it is better than the rockets and I re tested the two mods just need to flee the two done your best!
"I honestly don't know why, but your character will need to own a FlareGun for this mod to actually work." You need to load the particle effects im guessing
@HeySlickThatsMe yeah I think so… but the model of the gun is loaded in the script… I’ll find out
Please make chaff and smoke countermeasure
oh yeah i wanna try that
I tried dispense flares but seems don't work missiles hit me always.
@zafrinsky you’re right. It will be corrected soon
@TrustNo1 The honest answer is that online mode makes more money for Rockstar, and they don't want to "waste" money on adding anything to single player.
@Lamarrio
Oh, I am fully aware of that lol. It is how R* operates now unfortunately.
Can you make a mod that will allow us to carpet bomb from planes?
@The Apple that’s a great idea, but I don’t think it is possible and for now I want to concentrate only on this mod
after update works fine :) missiles follow the flares ) now funny and long dogfigths with your mod thank you!
