  1. I dont think this has anything to do with other players with mods. I believe it is a script conflict after a recent update.
  2. Date and time (provide timezone): 24/07/21 Character name: Jessica Nash Issue/bug you are reporting: Vehicle Teleportation? Expected behavior: I came to a stop at the bank, the car was stopped, i exited and it teleported. This time i managed to catch it on shadowplay. It happened the other day in my comet S2. It teleported backwards that time. Evidence, notes worth mentioning, steps to replicate: Not sure whats causing it. Doesn't happen all the time, every now and again. https://streamable.com/efollx Vehicle license plate number*: 24-S-2

    Police Supers

    I agree with alexalex. While we strive for realism, we must compensate with script limitations and how our server works. IRL unless you have a specific plan to commit crimes, you'd rarely see a criminal wearing a mask. It's usually organised crime, but on the server, everyone wears a mask to use the "I'm wearing a mask wasn't me" bit. Not everyone has access to them and we have strict rules surrounding the use of them, including which vehicles we can and cannot use a high speed for. I cannot tell you how many times, police chases are caused by someone about to get a speeding ticket and they just feel like evading for fun, then when they get caught, the fun stops. There are some people who play with ECRP that are so good at driving, none of our supers can keep up with them. Because they are GOOD drivers. Hello @Aaron Martin So it's all about give or take.
  4. Your forum display name?
  5. So I'm sure the majority of our members have had run ins with people driving scripted vehicles, whether its a bus on route 68 or a money truck blasting through an intersection. I propose that every time your vehicle is damaged, you loose a small percentage of your final pay. For example on your bus route, if you hit anything or anything hits you, you are deducted $10-20 per T/C. This will encourage better driving over all I feel.
  6. Yeah i agree with that, maybe third taze could be the injured animation.
  7. Currently when you taze an individual, they are frozen and receive a notification to say *You have been tazed* or something along those lines. This is great however, to tackle any issues with repeated tazes and individuals acting unaffected i would like to make the following suggestion; When you are tazed, not only does it freeze you (Causing the taze animation) but for 1 minute afterwards you walk in the injured animation, making it impossible for you to jump or run at fast speeds. For extra immersion a blur effect added to the individual (Similar to drugs) to make peoples vision blurry and shakey would be great. This will tackle any issues with individuals being tazed 4-5 times and acting unaffected but also adds to immersion
  8. Do you have any mods installed like redux? Or did you? Do you use a modlauncher at all?
  9. Maybe instead of suspensions it could work on demerits instead. In the UK you get points on your licence for bad driving. In game more than 3 is automatic suspension. It may work better if felony evasion gives 2 points/demerits instead. This way its more of a strike system, 3 strikes your out for 2 days. Stops repeat offenders, preserves repeated suspensions in short periods.
  10. Bans are not handed out lightly so it makes sense that should the person being banned makes an appeal, the appeal should be reviewed adequately and carefully, reviewing all pertinent information. The integrity and safety of the server is paramount so I think the time of appeals as it stands, is necessary to maintain the integrity and safety of the server and community.
  11. +1 Would be great for bus shelters to be added to the maps where the routes are placed however I think placing markers on the map where the stops are would clog the HUD and cause issues with weazel blips. There are improvements that could be made for the bus job though. It would be great to see buses actually being purposeful other than a way to get money.
  12. Great idea so long as you don't come to an intersection, panic and struggle to close your phone to hit a wasd key and get hit by a car! Should also be cancelled should you be tazed/hurt/injured so its not abused! +1
  13. +1 From an LEO perspective it would be great if detectives could 'examine' packed cash. Then a notification at the top could say 'Money appears genuine' or 'money appears counterfeit' This way there is risk and reward both ways. If you're caught with counterfeit money you can get 'possession of counterfeit currency' If you get caught manufacturing 'manufacturing counterfeit currency Also contributing to criminal RP and progression. Nice!
  14. Its definitely not a physics issue because it's only recently started. Must be a recent update that's conflicting with the cars
  15. Date and time (provide timezone): 19/05/21 Character name: Jessica Nash Issue/bug you are reporting: Crown Vic Lifts its self up off the ground. Expected behavior: At random times, Health can be full, Health can be low, the vehicle will periodically lift itself off the ground, almost like you're running over something, causing you to spin out, its impossible to drive sometimes. As far as i'm aware, its only the crown vic that does it. I don't have any mods on my game at all, my fianceé does, does it on both. Evidence, notes worth mentioning, steps to replicate: https://streamable.com/jqojrr (This is the worst one) https://streamable.com/ti2fu6 (This is minor lifting but still makes it impossible to turn)
  16. This is a very generalised opinion, it's sad that you have had bad experiences to make you feel this way. Moving forward maybe constructive ideas and suggestions would help improve gameplay for everyone.
  17. I understand what you're saying, however it was demanded the spike strips be removed which meant your tires couldn't be disabled and realistically speaking I'm not sure I agree you would have seen them being placed. However think about it from a realistic and logical stand point. After holding a poor man hostage with large pistols, along with the clerks and stealing large quantities from a bank, would you not think to be met with hostile retaliation. I cannot speak for everyone else's intentions, however, I can speak on mine from other experiences, the tires were the target of gun fire to vastly disable or slow the vehicle. There are other factors at play that you cannot see also. For example in real life at any given point there are helicopters available for use in severe situations such as this. Should a helicopter not be available (which wouldn't really happen IRL) alternative measures have to be set in place to compensate for the lack there of. I.E high speed intersepting units, taking of tires and so on. Like I said prior, when planning a bank robbery, which is high risk, especially this bank in particular due to its location, you really have to plan. I've seen 15+ people in this bank in on given situation get away before so it's all about the planning.
  18. Hello! So, I interacted with you initially in this situation. I understand your frustration with this situation. Being a criminal is very hard. 10x harder than legal characters. Robbing banks are the hardest part of the criminal side of RP so it stands to reason it would take lots of planning and so on. You stated you had backup plans and escape routes which is great. However you must have surmised to begin with the best course of action is to have a hostage because PD would take the life of the hostage seriously. You used this to your advantage. Moving forward you should have maybe considered that once the hostage was safe you had no leverage, which left you open to hostile actions since you'd been holding an innocent civilian under gun point deeming you all dangerous. In future it might be best for you to consider alternate ways for you to keep your leverage and allow your friends safe escape. I've found that as a criminal you need to think 5 steps ahead because departments like PD would probably have well versed and practiced protocols for all situations so you'd need to think outside the box and be super smart and sneaky. I would ask that you not view PD as power hungry, its not the case at all, I can speak on myself alone. However I share some frustrations of the same RP scenarios when it comes to bank robberies. I wish you the best of luck next time!
  19. As others have stated, this is an IC issue. It is Enforced on an IC level because the law created is IC. In terms of realism, prior to covid, there are very minimal reasons to be wearing a mask. Where I live you can only wear a mask for religious or medical reasons, and while you want to RP a medical reason, you've been told by administration your best viable option is to roleplay it instead. I have seen people roleplay a hijab using the cloth mask without a face part but it still covers identity. If there was a mask that looked like a medical grade mask I'm sure it wouldn't be such an issue, but there isn't. On a final note this post seems like more of an issue with policing which again is an IC issue. Laws are not created by cops in real life, they are created by the government and UPHELD by the police. Would you berate a janitor for the way he is payed to clean? Work with what you have available to you and move forward with IC means to improve or change laws.
