Seems like it only affects helicopters once they are spawned and not the spawning himself.

I'm trying to find a way to make the police able to go off-road, like chasing in mountains.

I'm aware of the flag 'FLAG_IS_OFFROAD_VEHICLE', but this seems to only auhorize the specific car to go out of the road.

I saw a mod somewhere that was looking like what i'm searching for, but I can't seem to find it anymore.

Thanks

@a63nt-5m1th Like said there

I've just tried something for my personnal dispatch, that worked.

And because the 'dispatch.meta/DispatchType/' 'DT_PoliceHelicopter' can be used for cars instead of helicopters, I replaced the 'VehicleSet' SWAT_HELI_1 in my case, by a new one I've made, with the barrage vehicle in it.

Then in 'mpchristmas2017///vehicle.meta/barrage', i've edited the layout line from 'LAYOUT_STD_BARRAGE' to 'LAYOUT_STD'

I've got the barrage being dispatched, with x3 peds in it and 2 of them using both barrage weapons.

• The thing I noticed, is that the barrage spawns directly from the sky, like an helicopter would, so sometimes they spawn in strange area and cannot reach me. I was trying to search where I could find the coordonates of 'DT_PoliceHelicopter' spawning but I cannot seem to find it... Have any idea ?

@shephart said in Make AI use of vehicle weapons:

Is it possible to make the AI use all of the vehicle weapons against you?

I've just tried something for my personnal dispatch, that worked.

• First you should check this thread, it gonna leads to multiple peds spawning in the vehicle.

• And because the 'dispatch.meta/DispatchType/' 'DT_PoliceHelicopter' can be used for cars instead of helicopters, I replaced the 'VehicleSet' named SWAT_HELI_1 in my case, by a new one I've made, with the barrage vehicle in it, and S_M_Y_Marine_03 peds using it.

• Then in 'mpchristmas2017///vehicle.meta/barrage', i've edited the layout line from 'LAYOUT_STD_BARRAGE' to 'LAYOUT_STD'

I've got the barrage being dispatched, with x3 peds in it and 2 of them using both barrage weapons.

If this could help.

EDIT :

Open 'dispatchtuning.ymt', go on CWantedHelicopterDispatch and change <TimeBetweenSpawnAttempts value="30.00000000"/>
to any value shorter so that the vehicle spawns more frequently.

Now need to find a way to not make the vehicle appear from the sky and everything would be good.

NOTE : It seems like weapons aren't being used by AI in each vehicle. barrage works, but not dune3 for example.

@a63nt-5m1th said in 4x seats vehicles useable by AI dispatch:

Nothing to do with dispatch, but I know you can get rid of the muscle car wheelie functionality Rockstar added at the end of 2018 by changing 'vehicles.meta'.

That is always good to know

While making some tests around the loadout.meta, i've realised that the dispatched police helicopter contain 4 or 5 peds dispatched on the ground... That could be another vehicle using multiple peds by keeping the name ?

EDIT :

So i've made my tests.

• Any vehicle can be spawn by both 'DispatchType' : DT_SwatHelicopter and DT_PoliceHelicopter.

• it seems like all the vehicles will spawn with x3 peds in it, maximum. Which is good news.

• I've tried replacing the textures files of polmav and annihilator to cars, while correcting the datas in vehicle.meta, it does not change nothing, still spawn with x3 peds.

• the x3 peds for the fbi2 will spawn inside the vehicle.

• The x2 extra peds seem to always spawn in backseats.

@a63nt-5m1th

With pleasure, here it is !

EDIT :

@a63nt-5m1th

• I've actually added WEAPON_SMOKEGRENADE to the LOADOUT_SWAT, and the flag BF_CanThrowSmokeGrenade in combatbehaviour.meta/CCombatInfo/SWAT.
  I've modified a lot the vanilla smoke so that it's a big cloud of smoke, we cannot see through that easily, and it deals just a little bit of tick damage.

Now it gives a much better tactical approach from the SWAT units

• I've tried creating a new CCombatInfo in combatbehaviour.meta for one of my added peds, but for some reason the game crash at some specific locations in the game.

@a63nt-5m1th said in Dispatched AI always spawn with shotgun:

@epoqx
I'm not sure, perhaps some kind of built in redundancy, so when loadouts are missing it falls back to the next set etc.

Looks like it's the case. I don't have any problem with loadout anymore. Every loadout I create now for any ped type (cop/swat/army) fonction properly. I don't know if it is the case in the vanilla loadout.meta, but for anyone who installed redux, the file needs a little cleaning to work properly !

Now I noticed LOADOUT_COP_L1 and LOADOUT_COP_L2 being part of it, and thought it could be the LOADOUT_COP scaling for each wanted level.
For example, Wlevel1 would be LOADOUT_COP, then Wlevel2 would be LOADOUT_COP_L1 or L2 etc.
But I didn't saw any difference in their loadouts. Still something to dig in I presume.

One thing I presume you've noticed, but I've not overtly mentioned is the 'CLoadOutRandom':

Yeah already noticed Chance value, but still a great line to edit to have variation over the weapons !

@a63nt-5m1th

• I don't know other vehicles that spawn with x4 peds in it, but I tried firetruk, by simply adding 'FLAG_LAW_ENFORCEMENT', and only x2 peds spawned in it.
  The funny part tho, is that the firetruk's were trying to kill me with water

• I couldn't dispatch any other car than fbi2 on DT_SwatAutomobile, and I thought about the fbi replacement, that worked simply by keeping the 'fbi' name but changing the car files. I did the same for fbi2, and I can now spawn any other car on DT_SwatAutomobile dispatch category, by simply keeping fbi2 as the name of the car. Thing is, only x1 ped spawn at a time in these fbi2 cars tho !

@a63nt-5m1th
Yeah that's what I was expecting.

Sticking to this insurgent while using the 4 seats seems enough badass and realistic for me !

This is a simply, but amazing information. I tried with riot BearCat, and it works too.

It's been SO long i'm trying to find a way to do this, and @a63nt-5m1th still have a way to make it work. It was as simple as this.

Thank you.
