@makavelinow did you encounter any error when you tried installing the mod cause mine says game files corrupted when i try to run the game with sparky's traffic mod

@fathervergil Important thing is that you got it fixed. I'm sure the generator mod is fine but I don't install any mods other than entities and a trainer. This minimizes potential mod conflicts and instability but most importantly I prefer to learn how to do something rather than have one do it for me. I'm pretty much done with peds, nothing new has come out in the longest time, so I'm just adding vehicles for now and working on my own menus using LemonUI. Cheers.

@Dilapidated Just wanted to add another comment regarding the fact that these mods are not one size fits all. After the Tuner update my system crashed with F7YO's version. It also crashed when he updated it. So I switched to yours and it was better but not perfect. Then you updated it and I found I needed to add the packfile for the very first time. It still crashed. Finally I added the other heap adjuster, which is outdated, and that was it. Perfect. So that's the combo that worked for me (over 400 addons).

So good news / bad news; Good news is that I found a mod that does it called QuantV level 4;

Bad news is that it's behind a paywall; Idk what his terms are or if he'll ever do a general availability for it but if he doesn't IDK how this'll ever be done again;
:RIP:

@AmazyCrazy Funny but true no?

@a63nt-5m1th going to add an error i made just yesterday which surprised me, not that i made the error but rather the nature.

I forgot to close the path and this resulted in my addon not loading, no error, just no load

For example
<Item>dlcpacks:/mycar</Item>
Instead of <Item>dlcpacks:/mycar/</Item>

So that closing slash or backslash is mandatory.

I apologize if this was already accounted for.

@ReNNie Is it also the mod for the minimap display in the image I posted as well?

@a63nt-5m1th said in Need help with my Towtrucks (mostly the flatbed):

@cakuzma
I think what is happening here is that the towtruck (maybe a few other vehicles too) has/have some sort of hidden flag added to it/them to stop the peds getting out of the way of it when their siren is on. If you set up a siren on just about any other vehicle, you will get the same thing, traffic will move out of the way as you get closer to it, but if you use your ford flatbed to replace the towtruck it will work just how you want & peds will ignore you etc.

Rockstar use hidden & uneditable advanced flags to make edits to certain vehicles (the 'fbi' is the only vehicle I've found that can carry 4x dispatch peds for example). The flags are tied to the vehicle name, so the only way to use the characteristics of those flags is to replace the vehicle that has that flag.

So, in this case, I think you are going to have to either:

Use your Ford flatbed model to replace the towtruck (or perhaps towtruck2, if it has the same characteristics),
or Find another vehicle that has the same flag applied to it & use that instead of the flatbed.

The 2nd option is probably best, you can likely find an airport vehicle or construction vehicle that you don't care about & replace it with your ford flatbed model to get the results you want.

Basically, take a little drive along the motorway in all the flashing lights vehicles you can find in the game & see if any of them have the characteristics you want & don't force peds to pullover etc.
If you find one, replace it's model with your Ford flatbed model & see if it has suddenly gained the 'no peds pull over' characteristic

yea that makes sence, i might have to try that, I dont want to replace the towtruck one (i have a towtruck mod that i use to go tow cars that need help, so i would like to still use the towtruck as that mod uses the towtruck model and nothing else), but i might try the towtruck 2 lines as that one doesnt get used by any mod i have , and i think stop the ped you can change what towtruck model comes when you call for a flatbed, i guess that will be the better option, thank you

update:
Towtruck2 slot works perfectly, if any mod wants to , they can close this and mark the guy above me as the anwser

here are 2 videos showing it in action

Brilliant!.. I will try this.. Thank you..

Ok so will re-post it on this discord !
Thanks a lot for answering

@W11LYY like most online coop or multiplayer games you will be banned for playing online with a modded game, which includes non cheats. Which is why u got a warning.

@zitterkopf you've done this before and they worked?
If so did you install any other mods like maps missions etc.
If you did, disable them.
If not change your gameconfig to a different one, u need a packfile as well .
