Hello Dark0ne (nice to see you are also the admin of GTA5-Mods besides the Nexus sites!)

In my case I would mean that the whole site (images, pages contents such as texts and graphics, downloads; except the CSS layout which load immediately) can take up to two minutes to load per page, whatever the area of the site. The forums are also affected but by a lesser extend.

The only time when the site (and also the forums) is loading normally —based on my average semi-rural ADSL connection— is from late night to usually around midday, GMT+1.

I tried with differents web browsers (Firefox ESR, Chrome, Opera, Vivaldi and Safari) on both Windows 10 and macOS Sierra, but the same issue happens.

Strange problem indeed...

I don't know if this issue is only happening on some regions or at specific hours of heavy load (or maybe the site is very often targeted by DDoS attacks?), but I can notice the same problem in France since almost a month —having an average ADSL landline connection—, never encountered such almost permanent heavily slow site loading/downloading before and since GTA5-Mods was launched at the early days of GTA V modding.

Does the admins have an eventual answer to this problem?

@meimeiriver Oh I think I just found a fix! In my case every objects were set as static (<flags value="32"/>) but the rotation/tilt weren't taken into account, instead I used the value used for the electric poles (<flags value="1572877"/>). I Selected randomly this object in Codewalker as this is a 100% static unmovable/unbreakable mesh in-game) which I applied to all my statics.
Now magically the rotations are applied! Tada! ^__^

@Cyron43 Thanks for your suggestion, I don't know if this issue happening with some converted maps is related to ScriptHookVDotNet anyway I opened a ticket on Github if it is indeed the case here: https://github.com/crosire/scripthookvdotnet/issues/726

@meimeiriver Yes this is the strange part of this problem, the Codewalker app is supposed to display the content almost exactly as it would appears in-game, anyway in our situations the rotation/tilt aren't taken into account only when loaded as addon map.

Same issue as yours, I converted the following Menyoo map to .ymap (Los Santos Electric Railway [Replace]洛圣都电气化铁路) but two specific replaced items aren't rotated in-game (rail catenaries replacing prop_cs_20m_rope.ydr and prop_cs_30m_rope.ydr), standing always in a horizontal position when loaded as addon map.

However they are correctly rotated/shifted when loaded in both Menyoo or Map Editor in-game or when displayed in Codewalker. Weird, weird bug indeed...

@skelepap said in Always display radar in Los Santos Customs/Benny's?:

If you have a problem with the fuel mod just disable the bar with the menu provided with Simple fuel before you enter LSC/Benny's or whatever
If it's not because of that then i really don't see a reason to put the radar there since it will just be annoying

Thanks for your reply. Anyway my main concern is about having a seamless UI and would if possible always have the radar to be visible similarly to when the player is in an interior —like in the safehouses and other in-game interiors— but in my case I also wonder how to force the radar to not disappear for those two specific cells (I'm aware it may be annoying for some users, but as with any mods this is optional).
I think this should be possible with some small scripting, but until now all of my attempts led to nothing or crashes.

Hi everyone!

Finally my first topic here, I hope you will not be too harsh with me and my somehow poor written English.

Well, going directly into the subject, one of the tiny little details which bug me in GTA V is how the radar is hidden when still sitting in a car in Los Santos Customs and Benny's as seen in this quick-and-dirty screenshot:

Especially the biggest aesthetic issue being when used with some of the fuel scripts mods available here (such as Simple Fuel by LeFix or Fuel Script V Mod by Sakis25) adding a bar gauge above or below the radar; in such situation the bar is floating alone which quite ruin the UI experience of the game.

I tried some different scripting methods since almost 3 days but being a huge newbie in the coding area, the ¾ of my attempts wouldn't do anything at all (thanks to being able to reload scripts in-game!) while the other parts crashed the game.
 
 
So my question is: does any scripting wizard hanging around there know the magic formula to always force showing the radar in those specific interiors?

Thanks in advance for your help.

@zh465 As said by @LeeC2202 above you need to rename the additional liveries textures in the mentioned formatting.

I would also mention for future reference that it seems —unless I'm wrong— the limit of liveries which can be added to a vehicle is capped to 25 max. as I noticed when trying to add more in some modded vehicles (in such case any liveries after the 25th will not be available and loaded in-game).

In the list of elements from GTA IV changed in V I miss the most is some parts of the HUD, notably the round-shaped radar (with the health/armor levels around its side).
Well I think only very few players prefer the old IV's radar to the new rectangular one.

As from I can see —correct me if I'm wrong— the vanilla UI in GTA V uses the Scaleform middleware (.gfx files), itself Flash-based; so technically how complex it is to modify the concerned files?

Looks great! As little suggestion I think the wheels/exhaust chrome are too shiny and reflective (in my opinion), maybe toning down the effect could make these parts more "natural" and weathered.
Otherwise I like all of the other details and especially pleasant to see a common mainstream North American vehicle. Good luck for this new project!
