Player Location Display - How To Install

Hey folks,

So I will tell you how to install a mod that gives you a display with street names.

This mod is ALLOWED

-> https://forum.eclipse-rp.net/threads/mods-allowed.1806/#post-6507

Features :

− PLD displays the player’s current in-game location on the screen.

− Location includes street name or intersection, district name, and region.

− PLD also displays the current in-game time.

Installation

Since this is used with GTA:N the installation is different then.

1. Copy the PLD.asi into GTANetwork/bin

2. Copy the PLD.ini into your GTAV main directory.

3. Your done, launch GTA:N already.

IF you want to check if the mod is running correctly without going in-game then go ahead

and open up the ScriptHookV.log in your GTAV main folder.

This line will be in the log if PLD loads up correctly.

[22:58:19] INIT: Registering script 'PLD.asi' (0x00007FFF063D4EF0)

Hope you enjoy the mod.

See you in the world of Eclipse

Thanks, I just added all the files to GTAV folder, it got disabled by GTAN I think.

You got a nice location for it? Default location is at the same place as the Eclipse speedometer.

Please read the instructions again it clearly says to copy each file in a different place.

The .asi in GTANetwork/bin

and the .ini file in the GTAV folder.

I meant I did that before I read your post.

Also, found a good location (for me) for it, above the mini-map:

LocTextPosX = 25
LocTextPosY = 785
LocTextPosX_RadarLrg = 175
LocTextPosY_RadarLrg = 785

This is for 1080 monitor/window if anyone else would like PLD to be above their mini-map

For my settings I have it in the bottom middle at a resolution of 1920x1080

I will edit this with settings once I am in my laptop

Can you make a tutorial to edit position of the PLD

Will do once I got all my setup at home.

While you wait for Spark, here's a small guide:

Open the PLD.ini file that you put in the GTAV folder, I find Notepad++ suits editing files with code in them, but normal Notepad works as well.

In the file you will find

LocTextPosX = 320
LocTextPosY = 1035
LocTextPosX_RadarLrg = 470
LocTextPosY_RadarLrg = 1035

While I have no real idea what is what of "LocTextPos" and "LocTextPosX_RadarLrg" I just added/removed the numbers in equal amount.

The X location starts from the left, and counts pixels to the right, and the Y location starts from the top and counts pixels to the bottom. So if you would put all of the above settings to 1 in each, it would to at the top left on your screen. I set my settings to be

LocTextPosX = 25
LocTextPosY = 785
LocTextPosX_RadarLrg = 175
LocTextPosY_RadarLrg = 785

Which is above the mini-map, which suits me quite nice. If you have a bigger screen, you would have to do a trial and error to get it right. Hope this helped you a bit until Spark gets to work.

If i use yours where on the screen does it appear?

For me it is just above the mini-map.

Is that a good place? what if you press Z is it going next to the minimap?

No, I rarely use the big mini-map though. You could always remove 150-200 pixels on the Y settings, and try it out.

If you like your PLD more at the bottom middle

These are for a 1080 resolution

[ GENERAL ]
LocTextPosX = 890
LocTextPosY = 1035
LocTextPosX_RadarLrg = 1040
LocTextPosY_RadarLrg = 1035
LocTextSizeMult = 1.0
DisplayGameTime = true
AllowRadarSizeToggle = true
AllowControllerUse = false

[ MULTIPLAYER ]
ShowPlayerObituaries = false
DisplayPlayerBlips = false
DisplayTeamBlipsOnly = false

Above the minimap thanks Burnz

LocTextPosX = 25
LocTextPosY = 785
LocTextPosX_RadarLrg = 175
LocTextPosY_RadarLrg = 785

If you want to make your own position keep in mind to reduce or increase the same number also to the RadarLrg X or Y

Am i been retarded or can i not find a download link anywhere in this thread? Anyone point me in the right direction?

There is no Download link here it is https://www.gta5-mods.com/scripts/player-location-display-v3-50 @EnzoTiger

There is now Download link here it is https://www.gta5-mods.com/scripts/player-location-display-v3-50 @EnzoTiger

Thank you dude

This could be added to the server as a feature. (not adding the mode but actually scripting it). Should be possible.

Its already added since we moved to GTA MP.

Stupid me, saw the thread on discord, did not see the time it was posted!

Well it is added as a base of GT:MP but the better compass is not part of that base

New to Eclipse RP. Attempting to download and install PLD. Does PLD work with the Rage Multiplayer client? 

Any help would be great....
