ABOUT THE MOD:

What happens when you spend hundreds of hours trying to get the perfect dispatch? This happens!

Dispatch of Variety is the official expansion pack for the prominent World of Variety, developed by me, with help and support by Cass and various modmakers from the community. The mod itself aims to deliver a fun, action-packed, and diverse experience, be it from emergency responses to law enforcement chases. It pushes Grand Theft Auto V's dispatch to its optimum potential whilst strictly staying true and friendly to the game's lore.

Furthermore, it installs supplementary lore-friendly peds and vehicles that would enhance ambience, diversity, and immersion as you explore the beautiful world of Los Santos and its surrounding countryside. The law enforcement weaponry has also been overhauled, expect seeing sights where the law enforcement makes use of weapon attachments during their conquest for you. Optionals are also offered inside.

Why are you still reading this? Just click download and install it already!

Disclaimer: Pirated versions of the game are not, and will never be supported. This mod also does not make use of scripts, everything is done natively.

@Chris-W. There's no logical explanation to buzzards doing that. Probably another mod.

• For the IVPack version, updated the vehiclemodelsets.meta I forgot to include from World of Variety 1.9.3, which may, or may not have caused some unreported issues

@krissboo Ah, crap, that sucks. Dark still has not spoken to me. So maybe that explains it, heh. Joker just hijacked batman.

@Jitnaught Further separation is needed, in my opinion. Have tags for FiveM, have tags for Native maps. For clarity and ease.

OpenIV has long supported Map Modding. Until now, there have only been a few native map mods lying around. Most map mods are still focused on Map Editor or Menyoo. Perhaps some people don't even notice that native maps are a possibility now, and I think a "Native" tag would help a lot regarding this dilemma.

Just suggesting!

What about dripping sweat on player and NPCs? (You can also do a dripping effect on them when it rains)

@Dilapidated Can you do something like the blood spurt effect from GTA IV?

@Eddlm Alright! Umbrellas sounds good. People peeing can also happen with hobos under the freeways or something?

@Eddlm You have any love for pissing pedestrians, maybe on sidewalks, walls, etc.?

@MvcGyver You should release that man, it looks great!
