Change GTA V streets name?
-
Hi!
Is it possible to change the streets name? Not the map, but so the PLD display custom names. So for example I can name Paleto Blvd to "troll" for example and when I point the map marker at that it will display "troll".
Is it possible, cause I have seen people having that

@OliverFunke think so, try looking up real LA street names on the website
-
Well, how do I do that then?
-
@Reacon Do you know that?
-
@OliverFunke the search bar
-
@OliverFunke I wonder why you came up with "troll" as name. Do you want to use this in online mode?
-
@Cyron43 No, like I want to rename Paleto to "Kristineberg" which is a area in Stockholm, Sweden. Its for a FiveM server
-
@Reacon Well, apparently google gives nothing. If you know could you just send the fike path or something?
-
And that's why we love *.ini kids

@Cyron43 you know any PLD who have it stored in a xml file? I have found some but they only allow to change areas, like Paleto bay and the airport
-
@OliverFunkeThat was a generalized reply. WTF is PLD? I guess you don't mean https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programmable_logic_device
-
@Cyron43 Oh, sorry. I should magine that in this case I mean Player Location Display.

@OliverFunke Now you're talking! You should have told us in your initial post. Not everybody is a LSPDFR player, even less knows all the mods around it and yet even lesser uses abbreviations for them.
-
ohh but PLD is a gem allright
-
@Cyron43 Well, it's uploaded here too. So I thought that somebody may know
-
@OliverFunke Okay I have tested this mod now and I can tell it gets the data right out of the game.
There are certain native functions which return those information at the current position.
In order to change that you'd either need to modify those hardcoded names with openIV (not suitable in multiplayer) or rewrite the code of the mod in a way that it replaces retrieved street names with anything you want from a database (written by yourself) and make all that a server side script with a client side script for the communication.
Since I don't think the author of the mod will give you permission for that and neither the FiveM team, you should just forget about that idea.
-
@Cyron43 You think its possible to code one lua script? So I make a lua script displaying custom names?
-
@OliverFunke I don't recommend LUA because it hasn't been updated in ages. Learn a sophisticated programming language like C# or C++ and come back in 2 years.
