You Must Adhere to the Rules...

Hello everyone   In order to make the rules easier to navigate and understand, we have decided to move them away from the forums and onto our very own wiki page! It will still be accessable from our boards, as you can easily click the "Rules" tab on the menu bar.     The rules are split into five different categories: Server Rules Account Rules Forum Rules Rules of Engagement Legal Faction Rules   With the rules be

Weapon and Drug Schemes

Hi all,   As most of you are aware, the Faction Team has been working hard on establishing the core illegal script systems along with guidelines and rules surrounding illegal roleplay.   This blog post will provide an update on what the Faction Team has been working on, along with how the illegal roleplay scene will play out when we launch the server.   Faction Tier System The Faction Team has re-developed the faction tier system and this will provide factions with speci

We're on Patreon

Hey everyone,   We've hit the point in our project where we're setting up infrastructure that our future server will run on. This means we suddenly have monthly costs with no source of income for the server, as you can't currently purchase a premium account. The costs include dedicated servers, cloud service fees, software licenses and so on.   This is why we decided to launch a LS-RP Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/lsrpcom   By supporting the LS-RP V project befor

We're done.

Hey all,   If you've been following along on Discord you've probably seen the great amount of progress we've been able to accomplish lately. I'm happy to say that after overcoming more hurdles than I was ready for, we're now done with feature development for the release.   Over the last month especially, we've been pushing hard to bring the last necessary features through the finish line. We decided to include more than initially planned because we felt like the server just c

We need to talk ...

Hey everyone,   The last dozen or so posts we've made have been more or less pragmatic, to inform everyone about updates & what to expect next. It's been a while since I made a post about the server and its direction in general. I want to open a honest dialogue about where the server currently stands, and how we can move onwards and upwards from here.    There's no sugar coating it — we're in a tough position right now, from multiple angles. The player base has been stabl

Update 1.4 Hotfix 1

Good afternoon, this one's just a quick hotfix to address some issues discovered since the last update, so there won't be much to talk about on this one. I do have some previews later though!   - Fixes an issue where company owners would not load for doors and gates - Fixes an issue where companies could be awarded $∞ - Increases mechanic garage profit margin from 15% to 35% - Adds a way for the prison faction to see when prisoners log ingame and are released - Adds a command for players

Testing Progress and Trailer Remaster

What up LS-RP Fam,   Since the announcement of feature freeze we've been grinding testing, bug fixing and final touchups. So far we've confirmed over 46 bugs to be fixed and another 24 are pending retesting after they've been addressed by the development team. As it is, we face another 7 critical, 28 major and 73 minor bugs. While we'll try to address as many as we can, the main pre-release focus is on the critical & major ones. Despite a bunch of bugs being found recently as testi

Stability & Updates!

Hello,   I'm happy to say that after a rocky first few days, our game server is now stable. If you were facing connection issues before, you should be able to log in game now. If you experience crashes after loading the game, this may be due to your mods or other issues we haven't properly diagnosed yet that affect a very small % of the playerbase. For the majority however, you're good to go in-game! If you're unsure how to, check out our How To Play step by step tutorial.

Spike Strips

Hello,   As promised, we're adding spike strips to the game today. They can be placed by any members of law enforcement with appropriate permissions and are collision-based, which means only the tire that actually goes over the spike strip will be popped. You can use /spikestrip (/ss) with an optional parameter to choose a model of spike strip you wish to use. There are currently 4 models available of varying sizes.   Additionally as a QOL update you can now press 1-9 keys wh

Server Release

Hello,   The server has been released. The IP is server.ls-rp.com:22005   I want to thank everyone who helped make this happen.

September Update

Hello,   Welcome to September's update. I want to go over staff changes and address a few recent topics, some of which we touched on in my last "We need to talk..." post. I've been keeping up with the comments on the thread and read all of them. I want to thank everyone who took their time to write down constructive criticism and everyone who shared words of support. I want to share my thoughts on some of the discussions that raised from the topic, and add a few of my own.

San Andreas Law!

Hey everyone,   Today we're releasing our penal and vehicle code. We decided instead of recycling from SAMP, we would rewrite it from scratch. We took some guidance from the SAMP penal code to get a gist of how to write it, but for the most part, it's a fresh one. We looked to the California penal code for inspiration and some charges are named and indexed from it. Our goal for this penal code was to make it as clear as possible so that both illegal and legal roleplayers would be able

Rules of Engagement & Faction Team Public

Hi all,   Rules of Engagement The Faction Team has completely re-written the Rules of Engagement and this has now been finalized.  The Rules of Engagement may be subject to amendments/changes after server launch. A Q&A topic will be created in the Faction Team Public Section to ask questions about the ROE.   No suggestions for alterations to the ROE will be taken until at-least a month after the server has launched and it has been trialed.   The Rules of Engagement c

Release Update

Hello,   As I mentioned on Discord already, due to reasons out of our control we are unable to release on the 24th as originally planned. This is due to real life circumstances and an attempted break-in into my apartment because of which I had to spend the last week and some change making sure my family and I are safe. Although I've gotten some of my time back to focus on the finalizing work I would've been doing, I'm still not 100% back and won't be for the next few days as it's an ev

Property Update: Business Applications

Hi all,   Today I'm happy to announce that we've now opened up the business section of the forums.  We've decided to allow players to apply for a business lease in order to establish business roleplay on the server initially.   There are plans to make these businesses buy-able further down the line once there is enough money in the economy for players to be able to afford these businesses. In order to encourage larger companies/factions to run these businesses we've decided that you mu

Player Survey: May 2023

Hey everyone,   We’re pleased to launch the first in a series of community surveys which we’d like you to take part in.   This first one is quite broad and asks a range of questions about how you’re currently feeling about LSRP, what major concerns you have ahead of launch, and some specific questions about the systems that will be in place.   Your input is incredibly valuable to us. Although the first iteration of the server’s script is complete and going through b

Patch 1.3.1

Hello,   We're following up yesterday's 1.3 Feature Update with a patch to address some bugs and minor additions.   Perhaps most importantly, we're enabling the Vehicle Theft script for everyone to try. We understand that it may be discouraging to have a lot of the illegal features locked behind a scheme or an application, so we'll try a different approach when implementing new features for the illegal scene. We'll start by opening it up with an attempt to balance it to the b

October Staff Update

Hello gamers! Welcome to the October 2023 Staff Update.   First and foremost I want to go over major changes to our leadership structure. If you've been paying attention over the past week or two, we've made quite a few changes. Ben, who's been the Head of Community (later renamed to Head of Operations) has stepped down due to lack of available time. He remains with us as a game admin to fully enjoy the fruits of our labor over the past years. I want to give him a big shoutout and a th

Winter is coming and so are the events!   While we admit we're fashionably late with the November event rundown, it's only because we've already dived headfirst into the month with not just one, but two incredible community events – the  celebration of Day of the Dead and the heartfelt tribute for Veterans Day.
