Update 1.6.3a Additions Added GTA Casino update entities New cars (not in dealerships yet) New interiors Added a new business selection menu for truckers 30+ female clothing with dresses and nice outfits! Server side mods can now be added on the server, as RageMP's new compatbility update has implemented a smart reload of mods, getting rid of the blackscreen issues. We'll be opening a thread soon to collect the mods you would wish to see on the server!

This has been a highly requested tutorial, keep in mind this is only for the creation of add-on mods, these do not change direct game files, they are simply dragged to the 'dlcpacks' folder of the server on your Rage-MP directory, mostly for re-texture mods. Tools required: OpenIV, download here; ArchiveFix, download here; Base add-on files, down here; The mod itself, I used this one as a test example: Mod. I recommend creating a new folder where you'll be working on the following steps, once everything is downloaded and ready. Keep in mind: The base files provided for the add-on creation will only work for textures, for such things as vehicle models or weapon models, you'll need other base files as they will not use textures.rpf most likely, take a look here and download according to your needs or the all-in-one package, the process however is the same as shown, this will work also for the so blessed nipple mods everyone keeps asking me over and over for another variant, you can now do it yourself and stop asking, since they're basically textures. 1 - Extract the mod to a working directory for easy management and move the dlc.rpf from the base add-on files to a new location and open it with OpenIV so you can start the process. 2 - With OpenIV open the dlc.rpf and navigate to the textures.rpf, this is where you'll drag all files, don't forget to enable edit mode on top. 3 - Drag the texture files inside now, once done go back and drag the textures.rpf out of OpenIV, then proceed to delete it from OpenIV. 4 - You should now have the textures.rpf file at the directory, just drag it on top of the ArchiveFix.exe, you should get a command line output that the file was encrypted. 5.1 - Now re-add the textures.rpf file back to the OpenIV inside the dlc.rpf we were working on once it's encrypted just drag it back inside the x64 directory. 5.2 - Go all the way back to the root of the dlc.rpf in OpenIV, you'll need to edit both the .xml files inside. 6 - Change accordingly to what you're going to name the folder where the dlc.rpf will be stored, can be anything, don't forget to hit 'save' once you're done. 7 - Disable edit mode once you're done, and drag the dlc.rpf on top of the ArchiveFix.exe just the same way you did with the textures.rpf. 8 - Create the folder according to what you named the mod on the .xml files, drag the dlc.rpf inside, and you're done, just drag the folder to the dlcpacks of the server you wish to connect.

Plain text: There’s something to be said about a venue having a theme and committing to it. In the sea of samey bars and clubs in Los Santos, the Reef Surf Bar is a refreshing change of pace, and you’ll notice right when you walk in. Reef boasts an interior completely unique from any I’ve seen during my time in Los Santos. A light blue theme pervades the spot, and everything about the venue says casual, comfortable, and fun. The beach bar vibe is strong and it hits you right as you walk through the door. Large rocks are placed throughout the room, adding to the oceanic feel, along with a floor depicting an underwater scene, beautifully designed. There is ample seating with tables for guests as well as a fully stocked bar. The spot has a pool table and a beer pong table. I haven’t played beer pong since college and unfortunately wasn’t able to stay long enough to get a game in last night. However, I think this just, once again, adds to the relaxed atmosphere Reef is obviously going for. Upon entering I ordered a rum and coke, and the bartender had no issue making the drink. As I stated in my last review, this might seem ‘standard’ but in LS it just isn’t. A lot of bartenders don’t know their liquors from their beers or their mixers from their liquors. It’s good to be able to go to a spot, order a simple drink, and have it served competently. A strange luxury in LS. The bartender was friendly and courteous. He took the time to come to our table and ask if we needed topped off. You don’t see this kind of customer service at a lot of spots in LS. Like the rest of my experience with Reef, it was refreshing. I’d love to write a paragraph outlining some gripes with the bar here. I typically would, and as an avid nitpicker it breaks a small piece of my heart to say that I’ve nothing but positive things to say about Reef. I will most certainly be visiting again, and regularly. My attempts at gauging public opinion on the state of LS’s nightlife scene has resoundingly amounted to one uniform want from the people – variety. Do yourself a favor and check out Reef. I think it’s got the variety we need. I won’t be adding numerical ratings to spots I review from here on out. Instead I’ll simply give a recommendation to check the place out, or a recommendation to not waste your time and money. Reef certainly gets a firm recommendation from me. Check it out. You won’t be disappointed.

I'm going to answer this before locking the thread since it's now going on a completely different subject and I already answered before. Let me explain you how the France tax system works, I am an auto-entrepreneur due to the various laws that prevents me from opening a full SARL which would allow to me to pay for the cost out of taxes, due to the fact that is his not my main job and it's not supposed to be, as I already have a full job. So I have to pay for 100% of the cost with the AFTER TAXES revenues. On 100€ you purchase, the server receives approximately 35€ (platform fees, 20% VAT, 25% company tax, 30% on my own revenue taxes). On these 35€ remains to pay the various licenses (teamspeak, forum, various webservices used), game server that is one of the most expensive at OVH due to the amount of bandwith and CPU required to fight DDoS attacks and 200 players reconnecting at the same time, 3 web servers including an expensive one to host all services during DDoS attacks (actually still ongoing), and various developments tools / books / resources I pay. On summer 2017 alone, it was more than 10 000€ spent building a full new architecture and constantly switching servers to fight a massive and targeted DDoS attack by a spanish hacker, which was just before GTAW EN/US opening and we fought that attack to make sure that /you/ could play without being taken hostage by DDoS attacks. On december 2017, another wave of attacks, once again more than 5000€ spent due to damn OVH installation fees and insane prices for licenses / bandwith. On June 2018, when switching from GTMP to RageMP we once again had to change our entire architecture and servers as we had to drop most Linux game servers and adapt to Windows environment, once again thousands spent. This project is not about profiting - It's about creating the best roleplay experience I can provide to all, doing this requires resources which by extreme luck I had thanks to my IRL job. However running a server base on my resources only for years isn't something healthy for myself or my family which you would understand, so your donations help us 1) paying the cost of the server, which never paid for itself until January 2019 due to the high amount of taxes that I'm under of in France. 2) get back resources that I personally paid (in total It's a loss of approximately 25k€ in 2 years) while donations were not covering the cost and had to be used to defend ourselves or adapt to external changes (change of emulator). I doubt I'll see enough "profits" to get back these 25k in the next years, however this helps me collect enough resources to face future challenges and keep the server in a healthy way on financial side for your own protection and future comfort. 3) If one day I may actually profit from the server, this will also be a great news and my only dream is for the server to grow enough so that we can fully pay people that also spend lot of their time developing as I do on the server. These 1), 2), 3) requires optimizations and I would be dumb not to optimize as much as possible the shop to ensure a healthy flow of donations coming up every months, without ever selling direct GTAW cash, vehicles or weapons like other servers can do. From these optimizations and statistics analysis, I'll repeat this again, it is not planned to put /bad as a standalone package.

The Inside Cause

Staff doesn't need to decide, there's a way which involves PGing and MGing and there's a way which doesn't. We simply do not approve of /me describes firstname_lastname on this server.

You have a couple of apps you can navigate through and go back with the home button. If you click the home button a few times in the home-screen it will turn off your phone, clicking the home button when the phone is off, will turn it back on. You can also watch the 1.6 showcase video below to see the phone in action: Text commands /phone /phonesize 70-100 Will allow you to customize the size of the phone /banktransfer /sendlocation /resetphonecode /sms /call /addcontact /removecontact /hangup /pickup /phoneon

Name: Jarrell L. Ingram Alias(es): Hell Rell, (formerly/semi-active) Y.G IF Gunna#2 DOB/AGE: 07/02/1999 (20 yrs old) Primary Bike: 2009 Ducati 1198 S Current Occupation: Secretary for the #1 Stunnas Motorsports Club Jarrell Ingram was born in Strawberry and grew up in that same neighborhood. During his childhood he was rocked by the gang culture, because his father and his mother were part of the Inglewood Families gang. His father has also been incarcerated since 2012 following a task-force led gang operation which aimed to weaken the gang. Jarrell was quickly sucked into gang life because of his father's heavy influence on him. If his father's roots are examined deeply enough it's known through very few sources that he has ties to the #1 Stunnas Motorsports Club through several business ventures. This would play a big part in Jarrell's up-bringing.

Short description: When it becomes possible, the addition of vehicle mods including both cars and motorcycles which are lore-friendly. Detailed description: There are a *wide* variety of vehicle mods which fit into the GTA lore which the server exists in. Mod packs such as the IVpack and Vanillaworks add large amounts of lore friendly vehicles which belong to in game manufacturers, can represent higher trim levels of existing vanilla cars or are just vehicles (in the case of IVpack) which have already been in the games and were omitted from GTAV. Commands to add: N/A. Items to add: N/A How would your suggestion improve the server? Vehicle mod packs such as IVpack especially add quite a variety of econobox and more middle class/lower class vehicles such as semi sporty sedans, wagons, hatchbacks, etc, etc - which I believe would allow for far more realistic vehicle variety and not just muscle and sports cars. Also, more motorcycles would be beneficial for the MC scene so everyone just doesn't ride the same bike (such as the floods of Daemons and Zombies). Singular vehicle mods such as the Sigma Two or Coil Tarantis, while not being previously established vehicles, fit within the lore and would make sense while providing players a greater options for the character to choose from and for more vehicles that may fit their portrayal best.

Shawnna "Chi-Town" Morris is Vice President in the Los Santos chapter of the Number 1 Stunnas Motorcycle Club, Shawnna being a single mother of a 7-year-old boy. Shawnna was born in Chicago IL, her home life wasn't so good so she looked to the streets as due to her home life not being as good. Morris joined the Vice Lords when she was just only 12 following her older brother into the gang life, Morris ends up pregnant at the age of 17 before she slowed down on her gang activities. Morris left Chicago when she turned 20 leaving to Los Santos before meeting up with Sweet Lou, Sweet Lou and her started a #1 Stunnas Chapter in Los Santos after being patched in members from different sides of the map.

Short description: We need an actual clothing system. Detailed description: I won't go into much detail because I don't think it will get much recognition, but basically. * Every store should have several markers, for shirts, go to marker next to the shirts, same for shoes and pants. * Give items names, you can pick tops and they are not just numbers, instead, it should be ''Polo Shirt'', ''Sweater'', ''Designer Shirt''. * Binco should have normal clothes, SubUrban more urban and designer choices, Ponsobys will have all the suits and high-end clothing that costs more. * Chains, Watches(ADD THEM), earrings and all that should be in the Jewelry Store, not Binco. * Each piece of clothing should have its own price. Commands to add: Just markers in stores. Items to add: Just rename numbers to the actual name of the item. How would your suggestion improve the server: Idk what this current system is trying to be, dirty white shirt costs as much as designer clothes or a suit, rich people will actually feel like rich people. Additional information: Community should discuss it as well, I personally think it's an improvement from what we have now.

Posting to follow this. This is tough

Confirm this works with player/tattoo models. While you don't necessarily need to make a running/working folder I do recommend how the OP did it. You'll end up with a lot cleaner structure and it's less confusing in the long run if and when RageMP or an update breaks your mods.

The argument is "oh but you dont NEED it" yeah. You dont. Your business wont be found though as people rather go to one of the competitors who have the blip for two reasons: Easier to find that club; Don't have to jump through hoops in order to locate it More likely that the club with the blip is visited by others opposed to the ones trying to only use the street name / description Point 1 may be avoided since you could argue if the feature wouldn't exist alltogether, you would have to research the location anyway. But point 2 is a major player in a.) the competitive aspect of the club / business scene and b.) in how much the business pays off. Doing a /blip literally increases your potential income margin by alot. That's like making the Gov-Bonus for club entries a donator thing only because "yOu CaN sTiLl HoSt An EvEnT". But the system supposedly used to support this server is in fact the biggest cashcow and selling point for the expensive donator packages. Therefore hell will freeze before something will be done here. That's like asking EA to remove the lootboxes. There are way better incentives that make people more willing to donate into packages without affecting roleplay as the current 1-2 things among 20 useless additions. If you argue /bad is not impacting roleplay you simply have no idea how people work. Features should only influence your own quality of life not the quality of life for the people you interact with. And that's exactly what's done here. You pay donator so OTHER PEOPLE can engage your business easier and with less hoops to jump through.

God damn fire marshals! Fire marshals be inspecting businesses making sure they are up to code and give them a capacity. Enforcement of that capacity with random inspections and shut things down if they don't stay up to code.

having /bad only available to donators is literally p2w

Having lived the life and damn near been killed by it I can say with some certainty that this is one of the very few factions in the community that understands what they're roleplaying. They're not afraid to ask questions to become more realistic and authentic. They didn't just watch Sons of Anarchy and thing 'Oh we should copy this', unlike many of the MC factions that have come into GTAW over the last year and half. If you want to learn about what it means to be an Outlaw, and properly put that into writing. Sinful Kings is the place to go. Having lived the life as a patchholder for a handful of years, I told myself I'd never get involved with an MC RP simply due to most of them were a giant joke. But Sinful Kings has surprised me. They legitimately want a life like and authentic experience for the faction and for each member.
