I really hope we'll get to see people doing more RP and less grinding. Much needed update IMO. (ty <3)

Good suggestion and no one would be happier than me if mods are added to the server, but not everyone has a high-end pc to support mods. GTA IV is poorly optimized and thus mods require a lot of strong hardware power, if not provided then the mods may never load for those and some ppl will see them and others will not.

Yes, FPS/loading might be a small problem, but we're just adding models, handling files, cosmetic skins which are not a pain in the butt to download. In small quantities.

For example, we can pick out the most useful and commonly used things in larger mods and implement them. For example, we can get the police radio model from the big and very known LCPD:FR mod and if things didn't work because this big mod has other "mods" which are required to make the animation and stuff work with the police radio, we could simply add the police radio as a weapon, well you can still punch weapon with it just like a knife/pool stick, but at least we can equip it to cops so they can roleplay using it in their hands lmao. But we will absolutely not replace it with other game weapons, I think adding more weapons is possible other than replacing skins.

Bigger models/particles = More lag and possible crashes but we can simply avoid that, maybe some mods could help optimize performance? Well that is possible too!

That's not up to me though, Some TLAD content is available.

As for mods, I think only player and vehicle data can be enforced. We can do a lot with objects, maybe it's time for mappers in IV  .

Um I heard about some limitations towards TLAD content which is the reason they didn't get added? I don't know I am no expert but what about the weapons? A new arsenal of weapons could be useful haha

Well, we can still do alot with player and vehicle data, but if you are going to rewrite the client again, can you fix that or even make adding mods a possible idea? I don't know anything about scripting and stuff, but what I do know that this is definitely a step in the right direction!

increase drug prices please, it will add more fun to both criminals and cops!

I rewrite the server though, not the client.

Cool, but what about the people who made the client (Like Suge), can't they do something about that? I am not trying to give instructions or something but looking at the gamestate stats, woohoohoo we are getting players back! Brilliant update!

Hope we will see you soon too!

this change is really good i must say.
haven't been growing weed for a while coz it was too much grinding and my fingers couldn't bear it  . might get back to it sometime   
and yea other jobs really need some changes.
but well they're not completely dead (except taxi and honker imo ). i still do trucking sometimes, fishing, and even newspaper delivery just for fun tho, but they're quite handy when i need some quick $$ for food or fuel

Taxi might be handy to have as a job because you can help others but the hooker job has no practical reason to exist as it does not bring anything special to the table.
In the past it was more used for fun purposes rather than having a true objective, matter of fact.

Absolutely!

I did really enjoy taxi more than any other job in the server, but since everyone got their own owned/state vehicles, no one did really spend two grands for a trip just across the first/main island.

Instead I made a discount for people, I used /ad to tell them like who ever orders a taxi gets like a 500$ discount, if the trip is not long enough, it is free! Because I enjoyed talking to people while driving, it did really make me feel satisfied when I pretend that we had an engine failure or I ran outta gas, just a way to roleplay without causing a deathmatch lmao.

I wish if taxi system was re-invented all over again. I mean you receive a salary/payment from any near Taxi HQ when you're done driving people, and you get an extra like 200$ from the customers to make it more realistic. This would decrease these unrealistic payments you get for driving someone across a city. Or just like we do it in my country, we negotiate the driver before getting in lmao ;3

Actually, I am going to suggest that in the suggesting board in a while, so it can be addressed in the right place to get taken into consideration.
