  1. +1 Would be cool, especially if it worked with facial animations? It’d be something useful for both pictures and RP. I’m thinking of some immersive experiences that could come from this.

    Surrealism

    The reason it's not hyper realistic is because it's a game. Who do you think it is irl who are searching for robberies in groups, and hitting quick cash robberies? Minors. There is probably more then 1 shootout between police and criminal everyday in multiple places throughout the US. I think this comes from lacking a full understanding of the real life streets and criminal psychology. The things that are really unrealistic on the server are the millionaire whiteboys who turn murderer in two seconds, the amount of separate crime groups of the same race/influence with substantial power (besides South Central), and generally the people who metagame and powergame as a general part of their RP. We'll never get hyper realism because it's a game, I'm always confused reading threads like this because it's almost as if most people think if it's not a perfectly peaceful world then it's unrealistic. Groups of minors will run up on people who seem rich and rob them, it's a criminal way of making money.

    Banking update

    Detailed Description - Addition of a bank branch business script (Fleeca, Lombank, Maze Bank, Kayton, Blaine County Savings Bank.) - Addition of bank issued cards - Addition of central bank: Union Depository. 1.0 - Bank Branch Script. In order for someone to obtain a bank they'd have to fill numerous requirements, one of which being having enough capital to figuratively lease the property for a year. All financial institution properties would be leased for a minimum of $50,000 a month based on institution. The person would also be required to show full capability and intent to manage the bank without any shadow of a doubt, they'd also be required ("by the banking company itself") to have a minimum investment of $1,000,000. That means in total the interested person would need to have a minimum of $1,600,000 in available funds to franchise a bank branch. Banking branches will be able to issue both savings and spending accounts to people, these accounts will vary on things like service (transaction & transfer) fees, ATM fees, interest rates and maximum daily ATM deposits, depending on the bank (institution, not branch). When depositing amounts of cash that exceed the daily ATM deposit amount, you'd have to deposit it via a teller in a bank where you have an account. If this amount exceeds something like $50,000 then the depositor would have to partake in an interview detailed by the SA Government. However this is at the discretion of the teller, or whoever deals with said customer. Banks will be able to give loans & mortgages, each individual banking association has unique pre-set costs for all services. Fleeca Bank: Account Fee: FREE (Standard bank/the bank you have an account with when you make a new character) Savings Interest Rate: 0.05% /week ATM Withdraw Fee: 1% Service Fees (Transactions & Transfers): 1% Interest Returns (Loans): 20% Maximum daily ATM deposit: $50,000 Lombank: Account Fee: $2000 sign on & $700 /week Savings Interest Rate: 0.4% /week ATM Withdraw Fee: 0.5% Service Fees (Transactions & Transfers): 0.4% Interest Returns (Loans): 18% Maximum daily ATM deposit: $80,000 Maze Bank: Account Fee: $2500 sign on & $700 /week Savings Interest Rate: 0.6% /week ATM Withdraw Fee: 0.5% Service Fees (Transactions & Transfers): 0.1% Interest Returns (Loans): 15% Maximum daily ATM deposit: $100,000 Kayton: Account Fee: $800 sign on & $250 /week Interest Rate: 0.15% /week ATM Withdraw Fee: 0.2% Service Fees (Transactions & Transfers): 0.6% Interest Returns (Loans): 20% Maximum daily ATM deposit: $50,000 Blaine County Savings Bank (Must be Blaine County resident): Account Fee: $1000 sign on & $200 /week Interest Rate: 0.4% /week ATM Withdraw Fee: 0.2% Service Fees (Transactions & Transfers): 0.6% Interest Returns (Loans): 16% Maximum daily ATM deposit: $100,000 Mortgage rates would apply here too, however that's something for PM. 2.0 - Union Depository The Union Depository would act as the central bank of San Andreas, the bank will manage all banks in the state and work to ensure that the banking system in San Andreas is working as it should work. It will be able to supply emergency loans to government bodies and banking institutions. The union depository will manage inflation and maintain the interest rates, changing them as needs be. Each banking branch will have an account within the Union Depository, the maximum amount of money a branch is (icly) allowed to have at one time is $1,000,000. Any excess cash would be transferred to the union depository to hold in accounts. Ideally, factions would form around this. I know there are a lot of people interested in finance RP. Relevant Commands/Items An entirely new banking system. How will it benefit the server? It will firstly prevent people from being able to deposit $1,000,000 like it's nothing, it will create an enormous amount of RP. It will open doors for things like money laundering and IRS, other financial institutions and fraud.

    Drug update 2.0

    Detailed Description Fentanyl - Ability to make fentanyl with an IFM scheme, raw fentanyl would be extremely potent and consuming 1 gram will render your player unconscious/dead, the purpose is to use it in further drug production. Cut drugs with other drugs - Certain drugs can be cut together, reducing purity loss when cut. For example if the currently reduction is 25% on every cut when using another agent, when using a drug it will be 10%. Adding too much of certain drugs would increase potency of the drug which can cause OD, however increases buffs given by the drug (maybe even adding new ones). So for example, you could cut a brick of cocaine down to 10% purity using both baking soda and meth, you'd increase both the quantity of drugs made and the potency. Increase buffs from drugs - This is questionable, but I think people really are reliant on drugs in real life; they help them do what they do, whether that be crime (where people would take most advantage of using drugs as a buff), or general life. As it's impossible to replicate what drugs do to humans on GTA:W I think increasing the buffs given by drugs, maybe adding a health boost to all drugs would help the market flourish more. Potency - Each gram of narcotic has a potency, 100% potency can kill a first time user. The higher the potency, the higher the buff. Cocaine's pure potency is around 35-50. Weed's potency is around 15-20. Fentanyl's raw potency is around 85-100 Heroin's raw potency is around 85 Meth's potency is around 50-65. MDMA's potency is around 50-60. And so on and so forth. The potency is affected both negatively and positively when cut with agents, for example; cutting heroin Weed cultivation - Making the weed cultivation system much more in depth, allowing people who choose how they grow the plants. Seeds, equipment, products, and nurture will significantly account for the outcome of the plant, for example using certain techniques would allow you to get super yields from plants, so a 10 plant grow could yield 5000 grams however you'd be paying the price in quality/potency. Using certain seeds, and caring for the plants consistently would make the plant yield weed with a 20-40% potency, with heavily improved buffs. This opens the door for ic marijuana dispensaries that have access to exclusive seeds that produce 30-35% potency and can produce an exclusive legal weed. (Cali weed.) Increase addiction side effects. Relevant Commands/Items - Fentanyl - Drug potencies based on contents & purity - /drugcut [base drug id] [amount] [cutting drug id] [amount] How will it benefit the server? It will create a bigger want/need for drugs. It will allow for more danger around taking drugs, however more benefits. It will create a lot more roleplay for both illegal RPers and drug users. It will put more drugs in the market.
  5. +1 but not this mod persay. I think if this is actually forwarded then there should be a mod that's created with the support and input of the community; and the mod should expand more of Blaine County and allow for a lot more housing. I think this would be hella beneficial for the server when you think about it, especially if there's ways to create new small villages; the player count would most likely increase significantly. If it looks out of place it shouldn't be done though. It's also a lot more realistic.

  7. If there's any talented mofos out there that can help me get some nice chain mods, it'd be appreciated. I don't know if I'm meant to pay real money? If so? You can stuff it, but if there's someone who knows about any nice VVS Chain models that'd be mad appreciated dawg. However, I can 3D model and I'd love to make some chains for a modpack if any modders are interested in working with me on that. Hit da DM young slime: 16ACES#7795

    Jewellery

    I'm going to expand on what I was suggesting to mention that one of the primary reasons for this suggestion, is the economical innovation behind it. There are few things in the real world that hold significant value, high dividend stock being one of them. However, it's nearly extremely complex if not impossible to have a full stock system on the server at this current time. Precious metals and gems are one of the best financial investments in real life and should be replicated in the server if they exist. Property, and vehicles are two other high value assets that are in both the real world, and LS. We do have jewellery however you'd find that the most expensive thing on the server is the $1.5m plane, the most expensive item of jewellery is most likely priced at $50,000-$70,000 which is a fraction of what jewellery should be worth respective to the real world. Precious metals and gems would be come plot of heists which would serve amazing roleplay for criminals and diamond dealers alike, a whole new avenue of roleplay would open for every single person on the server. Jewellery businesses would become sought after however mostly unattainable (I suggest admins to make it hard to obtain a jewellery business) and so people would find them selves integrating themselves with these businesses who's owner and employees would find to be extremely lucrative. I think it would do a lot of good things for the server should it be received correctly.

    Jewellery

    The thing that everyone seems to be missing is that one flawlesss diamond that weights 2 grams costs $46,000 in real life and therefore buying a ring that contains a 2ct FL diamond in game for $50,000 doesn't make sense based on the economy.

    Jewellery

    Not really, I'd say it's completely different. Right now, any person with a script business can create a $50,000 piece of fine jewellery, made using precious gems and metals, which is the most unrealistic and powergamey thing known to man. There are numerous parts to the jewellery trade, and numerous parts to one piece of jewellery. It's not as easy as "gold, shiny, round" People currently spend their money on jewellery that already has no visual affect on their character, adding this system would actually mean there is a prestige/genuine non-fiat worth to the piece. Money is fiat. Gold is the complete opposite of fiat, and itself is the reason as why fiat exists. Currently, jewellery is fiat. It makes absolutely, no sense.

    Jewellery

    Jewellery businesses could have an exclusive supply to precious metals and gems via the admins, any precious metal purchased would be at the highest purity, 999.9 pure silver, 24k gold, 999.5 pure platinum. The same would go for gems and their respective clarity, weights and colours. A 24k gold bar weighing 1 troy ounce (31g) today is worth $1,788, and so in game would be worth $10,788 which can then be mixed with other alloys; for example most part copper which would produce rose gold. Diamonds would be worth significant amounts. However, in real life most gold bars are supplied to the public by banks. Banks could also be a source of precious metals and gems.

    Jewellery

    I'm not suggesting a script that allows jewellery to be made, I'm suggesting a script that adds a real, non-fiat, genuine value to jewellery uniquely from any other item bar it's raw material counterparts. The current script does not do what I am suggesting, I am suggesting the addition of natural precious metals and gems with a solid value and unproducible by man.

    Jewellery

    Jewellery isn't consumable or comparable to a meal though, neither is the majority of jewellery produce by jewellers, like chefs to a meal. Jewellery is not fiat valuable, neither is it valuable due to it's production or selling point. Jewellery is valuable based on what it contains, precious metals and gems.

    Jewellery

    Detailed Description - Addition of precious metals and gems, required to create a piece of jewellery. I suggest an addition of precious metals and gems such-as; gold, silver, platinum, diamonds, emeralds, sapphires and rubies. These precious metals and gems can be used in the production of jewellery, however may very well serve a purpose as standalone valuable times. This means that, fine jewellery would only be producible using this suggested script and sometimes worth significant amount of money. The value of a diamond is based on it's clarity, weight (ct.) and colour, with the average (fine) engagement ring having a 0.5-1.5ct, or multiple 0.05-0.15ct diamonds. A 1ct diamond is worth approximately $5,000 in the USA and so would be $50,000 in game, this would make the average fine engagement ring somewhere around $90,000-125,000. However the bigger the gem, the higher the price increases; meaning that there could be gems on the server worth $1,000,000. Gold is valued based on it's weight and purity (kt.), the purity is measured by the gold to alloy ratio in a piece of metal. For example, a piece of gold that contains 24 parts for gold would be 24 karat gold and a piece of gold that contains 18 parts gold and 4 parts alloy would be 18 karat gold. Using these sciences to the server, in the addition of a new jeweller/goldsmithing system where a jeweller can create pieces of jewellery containing precious metals and gems that hold a non-fiat value would make for a much more realistic situation around jewellery both from a commercial and physical stand point. I also think that addition of uncreatable rare watches like Rolex, would be more realistic as not any bench jeweller or watchmaker can create a Rolex, obviously. I'm going to expand on what I was suggesting to mention that one of the primary reasons for this suggestion, is the economical innovation behind it. There are few things in the real world that hold significant value, high dividend stock being one of them. However, it's nearly extremely complex if not impossible to have a full stock system on the server at this current time. Precious metals and gems are one of the best financial investments in real life and should be replicated in the server if they exist.

I think it would do a lot of good things for the server should it be received correctly. Relevant Commands/Items Items: - Jewellery Bench - Silver - Gold - Platinum - Diamond - Emerald - Sapphire - Ruby - Copper - Aluminium Add metallurgy system to alloy metals, bench jewellery system to craft fine jewellery with metals and gems. How will it benefit the server? It would make a part of the server much more realistic in ways it should be. Things of significant value in real life, hold a value in GTA:W, like cars and houses. A lot of jewellery in real life cost more than the average house and so I think it would be fair to allow that whole industry and culture in Los Santos, where is most prominently exists in its real world counterpart.

    Andreas Cavalli

    Andreas Cavalli, 2021 Mugshot (Dated) Andreas Giuseppe Cavalli 25/02/1992 | Brooklyn, NYC. Born on the 25th of February 1992 in Bath Beach, Brooklyn, NYC, Andreas "Pepe" Cavalli was raised right on the Bonanno crime family's strip; Bath Avenue. His father Giuseppe Cavalli was a second-generation Italian-American immigrant high-school janitor who worked partly as a mule for the Genovese crime family's 116th Street Crew in East Harlem, NYC. Andreas' mother died in child birth and so he was raised primarily by his father, and partially by his grandparents from 2004-2008. Andreas grew up slowly losing respect for his father year by year, he would see his father being spoken to and treated like a dog; something Andreas vowed to never let happen to himself. Andreas was extremely bright, at the age of 18 achieving a score of 118 on an IQ test, he exceeded throughout his academic career and graduated with a BS in Business from NYU Stern in the 93rd percentile. When Andreas was 12 years old, his father's home was invaded and Andreas watched his father being brutally beaten by thugs in his own home. Shortly after this Andreas moved into his grandparents house with his older sister Amelia, where he spent the majority of his time out of school with the Bath Avenue Crew selling cigarettes and fireworks for the mobbed up associates. Due to his whit and street intelligence, along with his charismatic and suave persona; Andreas was a catch not only with the ladies, however respected heavily by his male peers. In the 11th grade Andreas had four kids who attended his school and lived locally selling cigarettes for him, both in and outside of school. In 2004 Andreas' big sister Amelia was raped by a local street-kid, believed to be out of spite for Andreas. Two days later Andreas murdered the boy in provoked self-defence after he slashed Andreas from eyebrow to cheek when confronted. Andreas beat the boy down, shattering both his cheekbones and jaw before using the boys knife to stab him in the eye, the boy died instantly. Andreas was arrested on scene however acquitted of the charges two months later as it was proven to be in self-defence. Word of Andeas' murder caught attention from significant members of the Bonanno crime family and sub-sequentially Andreas was bought under the wing of a made-man, Harold Vernetti who harnessed Andreas' talent and capabilities. In 2008 Andreas began to attend NYU Stern, one of the world's most prestigious business schools and graduated with a 3.8 GPA. After graduation Andreas went into business with Adam Picci, a Bonanno associate, the duo ran a jewellery store on Bath Avenue under made-man Harold Vernetti. The duo went on to organise over 200 jewellery heists from the years of 2008-2015, generating just below $1.5m in personal revenue. Andreas married Fenaya Deville in 2015 and the duo had a baby girl a year later, pregnancy and childbirth proved to be extremely mentally tolling on a 19 year old Fenaya, who began to develop severe depression. Two years later in 2018 their baby died in a house fire after Andreas had left a cigarette lit in an ashtray under a curtain, Andreas had stepped out to the store whilst his big sister, unaware of the babies presence, managed to escape the burning house. Following the death of his baby Andreas' was charged with involuntary manslaughter however was found not guilty after a 9 month trial, he spent the majority of this trial in a psychiatric hospital after attempting suicide. Straight after his discharge from the hospital on the 9th of November 2019 he moved to San Antonio, Texas and began working as a bench jeweller in a strip mall, spending the majority of his remaining funds on a small house on the outskirts of the city. He continued to suffer from mental health issues and eventually quit his job, his life began to deteriorate and he saw himself becoming trapped in a vicious depression. After an old friend of his found Andreas after searching for six months, Andreas' mental health started to improve and at the end of 2021 moved to Los Santos, San Andreas where he got a job on Clinton Ave at Rothstein's Jewellery where he remains to this day. Andreas started boxing when he was 6 years old, his father Giuseppe was an amateur boxer and in his heyday quite renowned in New York. At the age of 16 Andreas was competing in junior amateur tournaments and was predominantly undefeated throughout his entire amateur career until the age of 18, when he gave up boxing in light of his newfound association with the Bonanno crime family and his admittance into NYU Stern. Despite giving up his aspirations as a professional boxer, he never stopped boxing as a sport; and continued to train up until 2019 following his admittance to a psychiatric hospital. Following his arrival to Los Santos, Andreas visited numerous gyms where he found his boxing style and skill was almost undefeatable by the fighters inhabiting Los Santos. The prospect of success as a professional fighter in the state sparked a new aspiration for Andreas, however it was unfounded and instead he began managing fighters under the MMA team CHI 1 (which he founded in late 2021) such-as; Beau Moxley and Eliseo Salvatore, two renowned professional and undefeated fighters in Los Santos. If you've read this far, thank you 🙂 There'll be more additions and screenshots below.
