  1. Hi, First of all I want to wish everyone a Happy New Year! The past two months have seen a huge increase in activity across all time zones. With many more players roleplaying in-game, it has created a lot more work for the admin team. To make sure the admin team can keep up with demand, we have decided to bring five Support members into the admin team as Trial Admins. We have also promoted four admins to Level 2 to make sure we have additional admins to assist in training. We have a lot of projects planned for the next few months. There is quite a lot to cover so I have included everything in a separate announcement that can be found by clicking here. We have also made a thread to explain how to approach staff members about particular issues. The aim is to make sure you go to the right person first rather than approaching the incorrect staff member. This thread can be found here. And finally, I want you to join me in congratulating the staff members that have been promoted this month, as well as our new Support members that are joining the staff team. Keane Admin Promotions Game Administrator Level 1 to Game Administrator Level 2 @Dashing @Knoxville (promoted to Assistant Head of Illegal FM) @lambchops @Optimus Dime Trial Administrator to Game Administrator Level 1 @Cara Support to Game Administrator Level 1 @Davis Support to Trial Administrator @Anselmi @Bombie @Fenrir @MikeTheMike @Selena New Support Team Members The following members of the community will be offered a chance to join the staff team as Community Support. Any Reserved members not on this list are considered to be denied. @Groz @Rumbunctious The new Support members will be sent a PM on the forums with further instructions. There were no applicants considered for reserved status this month. If you applied for the staff team and your name is not on this list, you have unfortunately been denied. You may contact @FullyCanadian or @KV for feedback and the denial reason. Any denied applicants may not reapply until the staff application wave in March 2020. Denied applicants may not reapply before then.

  3. The fact that we have Flash GT's, Elegy Retros, Cheetah Classics and other cars that you'd very rarely see on the road, but we lack hot rods is pretty silly. (The Flash GT is literally a WRC car, best of luck registering and insuring it!) I can tell you right now America holds more hot rods than they do R32's that every drives around on GTA:W. Hot rodding was literally invented in the US. They're not exactly all that rare. Are they old? Sure they are! But they're definitely not stupid rare that you'd barely see them around. We got a shit ton of tuners, we have a shit load of high performance "sports cars" but we lack old school cars that we can actually use to RP and develop around. Why is the Slamvan Custom not IG? It's literally just an old pickup on air. What's harming the server by having it ingame? Not everyone's interested in tuners or modern muscle. I've been RP-ing around Autohaven which is a shop I've been running for a solid seven plus months now along with a friend, and we always more or less leaned to the domestic side of the car market. We all have an interest in hot rods and the RP means to acquire them, but we simply can't RP around them because they're not in the game. My character's super bias towards hot rods because he grew up around them. I've been wanting to turn Autohaven into a "Speed Shop." (Speed shops are local brick and mortar businesses which typically purvey aftermarket automotive accessories intended to increase the performance of automobiles. They came into existence in the 1940s in North America as a result of the then rising popularity in hotrod culture.) Believe it or not, speed shops still exist in the USA. Lots of them. You can simply google a state in the US and I guarantee you it will have at least 2-6 speed shops in it. People are passionate about this, people live around this, and it's a concept I've been wanting to bring to GTA:W for some time now, but I just simply can't. The cars aren't ingame and there's no way I can get my hands on them. I can't request one because I'm pretty sure there's not a system in place for that. Everyone on GTA:W goes around saying how "variety is great and people should make unique concepts" but when people try, a lot of them find that there's simply no support for it, such as this right here. Not everyone wants to run a shop catered to clapped out tuners. A LOT of performance shops in America are literally specializing in muscle car performance, because that's what was born in America, and what's been living in it since the 1950's. Saying we should auction off old cars such as the Hustler so "not everyone can get it" but keeping the Elegy Retro, the Cheetah Classic and the Flash GT in the dealerships is pretty silly. I can name six plus cars that shouldn't be in dealerships, but they are. Overall, I don't really see a big issue with having hot rods in the game. People that want to RP around them will buy them. Racers and evaders sure as hell won't buy them cause they're slow as shit and hold no performance advantage over any other car. Hot rod culture is alive and well in America and I doubt it'll go anywhere. And to say one more thing, people saying "they'll flock to it" cause it's new. Y'all remember when the Tulip and the Vamos got added? Almost everyone and their grandmother had one. A month went by, nobody had them anymore. The same shit's gonna happen here. People that enjoy them will keep them, the rest will get rid of them. That's more or less it.

  6. Short description: Redo the script from scratch. Detailed description: Currently, the mechanic script is basic, unusable and many things are missing to add, what I am suggesting is to redo the script of 0 by adding all those missing things, and make it more comfortable for both client and mechanic. When I say comfortable, it is creating a CEF menu where you have icons or text to move up in the categories, create a purchase menu and cancel in each submenu and be able to choose what you need. This avoids having to be accepting the command and waiting for the mechanic to accept it several times, since in the current menu, if you give it back, the menu disappears. To move through the submenus, we can use the icons above (for example, exterior.icon) I have two ways on how to buy things from the mechanic: 1- Select all the components of the submenu (engine for example) and give it to buy, and then you can move to the next menu and repeat the process. (You can choose any submenu whenever you want, but changes will only be saved if you first press BUY) 2- Select all the components of the submenu (engine for example) and press the next submenu (Exterior), select everything you want to add and this is added to the total, when you press BUY, all components are purchased and installed. Components to add that are missing in GTAW; Interior ornaments Other types of tires. Change flyers Metallic and iriscent paints. Paint the tires Paint the inside of the vehicle and the speedometers Colored fumes in tires Boot interiors, doors, windows, engine interiors such as reinforcing bars, engine types, gas tank types, etc. And more. In PAINT all things related to colors, paints, type of paint, paint tires, colored fumes, neons, paint the interior of the vehicle, speedometers, etc., would be included in vehicle maintenance items such as anti-theft, gps, alarms, locks, engine maintenance, cleaning dirt, etc. The tires can be in "Exterior", there would be an option that says "Tire type: SUV/offroad/SPORT/HIGH END/ETC" And below a selector of IDs that would correspond to each tire of the type that we have chosen in the option above. Commands to add: Items to add: How would your suggestion improve the server? We would have a more complete, more modern and more comfortable script. Additional information: I wanted to do this thing with HTML/CSS/JS but I don't have time.

  7. With origins from the era of prohibition to evade revenue agents and remaining popularity in 1930's California all the way to Post-War 1940's and onwards, hot rodding is a true American past-time. Back in their golden days, hot rods were the hottest shit on the block, the quickest flash of lighting you'd ever seen and above all else, a token of character. If you wanted to run from Johnny Law and look good while doing it then a hot rod is what you needed to build. Hot rodding is a nearly 100 year old culture, the pinnacle of American Muscle before the birth of the Pony Car that we know and love today. Yet it is so, so neglected on GTA:W. Why? We have a select few hot rods already available in the server such as the Clique, Blade and Hermes to name a few. Why are the rest of them not available? Why are we missing the: Hotknife, Hustler, Slamvan Custom, Tornado Custom, Peyote Gasser, Rat-Truck, Coquette BlackFin. Hotrods! What do they have to give in performance? Absolutely fuck all. What do they have to give in character of themselves and of the player that owns it? The world. If you want to stop the server being dominated by the fastest of the fast and the best of the best then players need the ability to start owning cars for what the bodylines say, not the speedo. I'm sure the LSPD would be grateful. Why is it that players can buy one of the fastest cars in the game, but not some of the slowest? And don't even get me started on some of the Pony Cars we're missing for zero reason. Missed opportunities to bring some actual car culture to the server. These cars aren't about speed and the street racers won't flock to them for bragging rights. They're just for styling down the street without a care in the world. Besides, anything can be a hotrod if you try hard enough. Untouched potential

  9. Short description: Script/Add-on where you can watch tv, like youtube videos on a TV model. Detailed description: Something where you can watch Television/Youtube on a TV/Computer screen, such as typing the command /TvScreen [ON/OFF] and it'll show a box where you can paste a youtube link or it'll ask you to add a link in the /settvlink command, also making it where it'll stream to other players as well. Commands to add: /tvscreen /settvlink [youtube video link] Items to add: Working TV Model & Scripting. How would your suggestion improve the server? It'll help improve roleplay, for example, you and a friend watch TV Roleplay wise, you can actually do it in-game instead of sitting in front of a blank black screen. Additional information: Credits to @Uriz for giving me an idea.

I used Menyoo to get the names, but it has Skin Blemishes/Sun Damage names mixed up, so I'll get the the Sun Damage names later through GTA Online character creation. I hope you found this helpful and use it to create some unique looking characters! Similar guides: Moles and Freckles Chest Hair

  11. Staff Points of Contact The following thread will be used to clarify which members of the staff team should be contacted for specific issues. This is to ensure the workload is spread evenly and that the most relevant staff member is contacted first. Please remember that these staff members deal with many requests a day, so an instant response is not always possible. Each staff member should be contacted via forum PM to make it easier to track your request. Discord DMs can be difficult to keep track of due to the large volume of them that staff members receive daily. Staff document everything on the forums to ensure that it is properly documented and to ensure that someone can take over should they go on absence or resign from the team. Nervous As the founder of the community, Nervous has a huge workload. He should only be contacted for issues that only he can handle. Examples of these issues are donation issues, development issues and issues with members of the Management team. @Nervous - Founder Management Management should only be contacted for issues relevant to areas they oversee, and for anything that an admin elsewhere in the team cannot cover. Frezemis is responsible for the staff team. Shanks should be contacted for anything relating to factions (IFM/LFM). Selena is responsible for Property Management & Pillsbury is responsible for RPQM, Social Media and Forum Moderation. @Shanks - Head of Faction Management @Selena - Head of Property Management @Pillsbury - Head of RP Quality, Social Media & Forum Moderation Administrators For any issues or questions about admins or the admin team in general, Odin should be contacted. Other points of contacts can be Pepper or Zani as they are on the staff management subteam as well. @Frezemis - Head of Staff @Zani - Head of Admins @Adv - Head of Support @Pepper - Senior Administrative Admin Side Support Staff Adv is responsible for the support team, so he should be the first person you contact for anything relevant to the support team. @Adv - Head of Support Faction Management For issues with factions, Shanks (who is head of faction management) should be contacted. The Head of Faction Management should only be contacted if it is an issue either the Head of Illegal Factions or Head of Legal factions cannot handle. @Shanks - Head of Faction Management @Sharvit - Assistant Head of Faction Management - Legal @honey. - Assistant Head of Faction Management - Illegal @Igloo - Assistant Head of Illegal Faction Management @slothy - Senior Illegal Faction Management @Lucky - Senior Illegal Faction Management @Hood - Senior Legal Faction Management Legal Faction Management Sharvit, is currently the assistant head of faction management, they are the point of contact for anything relating to legal roleplay on the server. Faction leaders should go to their assigned faction handler. @Sharvit - Assistant Head of Faction Management / Head of Legal Faction Management Illegal Faction Management Shanks is currently the assistant head of faction management, so he is the primary point of contact for all illegal roleplay. Like Legal FM, faction leaders should go to their faction handler before going to the Head of Illegal Factions. @honey. - Assistant Head of Faction Management / Head of Illegal Faction Management Roleplay Quality For concerns about roleplay quality, you can send a roleplay quality report which can be found here. For any issues that don't require a report, you can contact any member of roleplay quality. @Exodus - Head of RPQM Team Properties, Businesses and Related Topics The best place for anything relating to properties or businesses is the Property Management Discord server. Members of Property Management actively check this to give assistance to players. You can join by clicking this link: https://discord.gg/EGArbSN. You can also contact Selena who is the Head of PM or Lomadias who is the Assistant Head of PM. @Selena - Head of Property Management @Lomadias - Asst. Head of Property Management @Kyra - Head of Mapping Property Leasing General leasing questions should go to the Property Management Discord server. @Soup - Head of Leasing Property Requests Like leasing, questions should go to the Property Management Discord server. You can also contact JackieH who is the Head of Requests. @JackieH - Head of Requests Server Rules Use the question and answers thread found under the rules. Feel free to tag Keane in your question.

  14. This car is literally one of the highest quality original mods I've found for GTA V. The sound is phenominal, the dash HUD is amazing and superb. Something to rival the Streiter in the performance wagon market. Nothing is neccessary. What's your point?

  15. We have rare, expensive & hard to acquire Euro/JDM whips in the server that anyone can buy at a dealership with the click of a button. People use said cars for racing, evading the police, etc., when realistically, they should be so rare that they'd be cruisers/show-cars at best, however, for whatever reason, domestic hotrods that are shit-tier performance wise but look good and bring RP to those that care? Nah, we don't have those. Why's that? I'd say either add hotrods to dealerships, or there should be some form of a request system. While we're at it, let's get rid of Elegies, Jester Classics(among others) & make these old & rare cars obtainable only to those that can realistically own one.

  16. For anyone who's worried about Hot Rods being all over the streets, just wait for the hype to die down and they will all get sold. People buy exotic cars on this server because they are fast, not because they are rare. Let's be real. Especially if they are made to drive and handle like many real Hot Rods, which isn't superb. They are driven because they look awesome and the people who own them generally have restored them personally. Just look at the Vapid Slamvan for what is going to happen. It looks and sounds incredible but hardly anyone has one because it drives like it should (fairly shitty). People who own these cars will have them to show off their looks, not their performance.

  19. just a quick note, 40, 50s Ford bodies are easy to come by simply out of how popular henry fords cars were due to their affordable prices.. all that it comes down to is deciding if u want to restore it. THUS.. idk, adding them to the dealership may cause a huge spark in them being driven, at this time of the year it'd be hard to see them being driven, even in LA simply out of the oddities in the weather. The cars are by no means easy to handle, coming with no power steering in most cases, the skinny tires worsening the control as well as the common insane power to weight ratio.. these cars are relatively rare. I think there should be a way to keep it as such but not overly rare, there are quite a number of hotrods in LA.

  22. lots of fun times probably most obviously the nigel stanton weazel war, specifically when i was outside weasel hq alone and irelia was making fun of that fact until 30 people randomly turned up at the same time, causing a scene and leading more people there until half the server was there and irelia retreated behind police protection, yet still got attacked with a hammer going to the fight club for the first time and being invited into the commentators booth for being swag tracking down my stolen van to see a massive police shootout with the guy who stole it, which led to his eventual death barry baldwin nearly getting arrested for parking in disabled parking outside weasel until me and the boys made enough of a shitstorm that the police decided it was better to just leave it as it is than to upset the increasingly irritated and british mob

  26. My fellow players, After the great success of replacing the Rental Asterope with a Rental Asbo, it dawned on me that the hippies of Los Santos were in uproar. The carbon footprint we’re emitting is reaching unacceptable levels and the Blistas are costing the company a bomb from how many they’ve had to replace! So the executives up top knew what to buy. Two birds with one environmentally friendly stone. The Dilettante. The hybrid to make everything better. Yeah so tl;dr Hybrid Rentals instead of the Blista. Let’s keep this hype train going for the betterment of all roleplay.

  29. Repost from the forum rollback. Created this due to the buggy preview for the Moles/Freckles section of the plastic surgeon shops. I noticed that the Moles/Freckles section of the face customisation area didn't seem to work very well for a lot of people, so I went through, screenshotted each of the Moles/Freckles options at 100% opacity and compiled them all into this handy little guide. Hope this helps some of you, as I myself found freckles to be quite the pain to experiment with without wasting money on purchasing them over and over to preview them. So here it is!~
