Hello everyone, Today we bring you an action packed update covering all floors of LS-RP, from the musky basements of development to the 24 carat gold-plated ivory towers of leadership. Our teams have been working tirelessly, and we have exciting progress to share from each area. A big thank you to everyone involved; your dedication is truly appreciated. Read on to find out more. Development I’m happy to say we’ve made tremendous progress in work that was long overdue. We’ve significantly improved our gamemode’s stability, anti-cheat and ban evasion detection, so the in-game experience is much smoother now. This leaves us with a lot more time we can dedicate to feature development, which we’ve already begun to do. A small update will be released likely tomorrow to address some intermittent issues and changes as we work on feature development. We brought three new developers to help us this month, so a warm welcome to - Noble, KUnderwood and Koky. Which brings me to! We’re teaming up with Koky’s Deathmatch That’s right, we’re now working with Koky’s Deathmatch to establish an official LS-RP Deathmatch server. I’ll save the details for a separate announcement when the server relaunches for SA-MP, but we’re going to be including some of the features you know from LS-RP in the DM game mode, such as our damage system, skin models, maps and more - so you can let the frustration out and train your shooting skills without leaving 17 corpses behind in Idlewood. The DM server being interlinked with LS-RP’s database and systems, I’m super excited for this unique venture and I’m sure it’ll fill the void that’s in the space right now. Stay tuned as we update you with more information. Factions Team: (From Badhbh, Spectre, Kev, Spanion) We’d like to start off our announcement by properly congratulating The Valenti Crime Family on their return to the server yet again as an official faction. One of our longest-running factions to date, who've held official status throughout the ages. Welcome back! The month of May has been extremely busy as the team has had all hands on deck getting our Drug Schemes, Prison, and Weapon Schemes in order, and we are happy to announce that these schemes are once again open for applications. This includes both factions and solo roleplayers wishing to get involved in our Solo Schemes! The links to the scheme applications can be found here - Please pay attention to the tagged Illegal Faction Team member, as they are head of their respective schemes. Applications are now also open for the turf map, please click here to find out more. We have kept our ears to the ground and have been listening to concerns raised around deathmatch mentality and escalation of beef between factions. We, as FTC, want to assure the server that this is not the precedent we want to push for factions to view as normal to do. As we monitor what’s happening in-game, we will be rolling out changes to the Rules of Engagement to make the faction scene more enjoyable for everyone. Finally, as always, if you'd like to make your voice heard, suggest changes or simply partake in formative discussions surrounding the server's illegal roleplay, please send an expression of interest to @Kev in order to join our public team. Commerce & Estate: (From Superb) In-game Auctions: In-game auctions have been a hit! We are now preparing to launch business auctions, allowing players to bid on a variety of businesses. Stay tuned for specific dates and details. Apartment Complex System: We are setting up an apartment complex system, enabling players to own and manage apartment complexes in-game. This will add new dimensions to roleplay and economic interaction. More details coming soon. Business Leasing Success: Our business leasing initiative has been a tremendous success, ensuring greater accessibility to businesses and ensuring that there are plenty of places open at any given time. Exclusive & Exotic Vehicles: We have also now started auctioning off exclusive and exotic vehicles for players to bid on and own! Community Engagement Team: (From Roze) The Community Outreach team has been busy since we've launched. We are now posting regular content to our social media platforms, which have gained some decent traction. We are still looking for more video submissions to use on our social media, so if you have anything that you would like to submit, please send it to @ROZE We are also in initial talks with the OpenMP team, to see what sort of opportunities they can offer us for exposure. The first thing we are trying to achieve is a spot on the partnerships tab. Beyond this, we aim to market LS-RP within a variety of SAMP and GTA Roleplay forums Mapping: (From Caledonite) Since the re-opening of the SA-MP servers, I've been focusing on revamping the mapping team structure to address neglected areas. This process is taking some time. I'm thrilled by the interest in joining the mapping team. Applications have been forwarded for review, and you'll be notified of your status soon. Currently, there are no showcases due to the ongoing revamp and limited mappers. Once the revamp is complete, showcases will resume for both LS-RP and SA-MP. Here are the current plans: SA-MP: Add new objects and textures to the furniture system. Revamp the server map, reviving dead areas and removing outdated mapping. LS-RP:V: Re-structure and prioritize pending projects. Fix furniture objects that can't be spawned by default. A survey will be sent out to gather player and staff feedback on mapping. Look for the announcement on Discord in #team-announcements. We are still looking for new mappers! The application is open indefinitely, and you can apply to focus on SA-MP, LS-RP, or both. No portfolio? No problem. Apply, and I'll guide you through the process. Feel free to message me on the forum or Discord with any questions. I may not reply immediately, but your messages won't go unnoticed. Suggestions & Improvements: (From Sal) We're pleased to be updating our Suggestions process with efficiency, transparency, and player agency in mind. Your input is invaluable in helping us create a better experience for everyone. Here’s how the updated process works: Submit Your Suggestion: Post your suggestion in the designated forum with the appropriate tag in the title. Community Discussion: Engage with other community members to discuss and improve the suggestion. Staff Review: Our staff team will review suggestions regularly. Promising suggestions will be moved to the "Forwarded Suggestions" forum for more in-depth review. Decision Making: The Head of Project will decide whether suggestions move forward to the development pipeline. Operational changes will be forwarded to the relevant staff team. Feature Voting: Significant features will be put to a vote using the Feature Voting option on the User Control Panel (UCP). Roadmap Integration: Approved suggestions will be added to our development roadmap based on community votes and priorities. Notes: We may need to modify suggestions to align with our technical capabilities, particularly given SA-MP's older codebase.

Chain robberies aren't a new concept and it's always been a problem. And just because something's been done a certain way for a long time doesn't necessarily mean it's the best way, or that it can't change - the meta and standards evolve over time. To say people haven't complained about chain robberies before is inaccurate at best. > I haven't played in a very long time Maybe it's time to change that, so you can provide valuable input to the current state of the matter rather than theorize about times past.

Date: February 14th, 2021 | Topic: Organized Crime | Region: San Fierro | Tags: Mafia, James Delutro, Anthony Gatti James Delutro (circled above in red) leaving the San Fierro Superior Court with Anthony Gatti during RICO trial in 2008. San Fierro Wiseguy Aquitted on All Charges After Spending the Past Year Intangled in a Court Case Reputed Mobster James Delutro will be Back on the Streets Feb 14th, 2021 SAN FIERRO - One gangster got his Valentine's day gift early, James Delutro a reputed member of the nearly defunct San Fierro Crime Family was acquitted in the San Fierro superior court today. Delutro 46, has been in and out of prison lately, spending eight of the last fifteen years behind bars relating to charges stemming from two separate drug arrests. Delutro is a longtime member of the Fierro mob and a close associate of the lasting acting boss of the family: Anthony Gatti. His latest stint cost him four years inside of State prison. The family Delutro will be returning to is a far cry from the one he left in 2019 however, the San Fierro Crime Family has been on a steady decline since the mid-2000s. The family is now largely considered largely defunct, last year one FBI agent described the current state of the once dominant Durante mob as "a gambling club for senior citizens now." Rumors have long stated that the family has no more than a handful of active members at this point. The history of the San Fierro Crime Family dates back to the late 90s, when Valenti Captain Patrick Durante broke off from the family staking his own claim to Fierro. Also known as the Durante Family, the group was always small compared to the two major LS families. They gained a reputation quickly, however, for reliable drug trafficking due to the family's connections at the San Fierro port. This control of the ports has allowed the Fierro family to remain relevant despite its size. Since the disappearance of Patrick Durante, the Fierro Mob has had the tendency to overstep its boundaries and try to expand its criminal schemes into Los Santos. James Delutro was once a part of one of those early satellite crews which attempted to plant the Fierro flag in Los Santos. Delutro found himself involved in a drug operation alongside Ray Ferrante and Patrick Durante Jr., the son of the former boss, the bust up of the operation resulted in his incarceration. During this time the Fierro crew ran into turbulence with the Bellantonio Crime Family this led to the deaths of the acting Fierro boss Anthony Gatti, along with two soldiers: Albert Alfani, and Phil Cefalu within a two-year span. Currently, the family is believed to be led by Richard Novarese a Valenti soldier with close ties to Patrick Durante, Novarese has kept a low profile since the death of his predecessor. However, it's widely believed that Novarese is no more than a figurehead at this point and stays off the street away from what criminal activity remains. Alleged Underboss Frank Baldi is assumed to be the one running what few rackets are still going on. Baldi in his late 60s, was a long-time friend of Anthony Gatti and is frequently spotted running down to Los Santos to meet with other rumored gangsters. Anthony 'Lines' Ulino, a Venturas gangster who was also incarcerated with Delutro in the past, is known to often accompany Baldi on these trips. A major question for James Delutro if he wants to return to the Fierro organized crime scene will be if there's anything left for him. Los Santos is now firmly under the control of the resurgent Valenti Crime Family along with the remnants of the Bellantonio Family, setting up a crew once again in LS would likely lead to conflict. This means that Delutro will have to find where he fits amongst the hierarchy within the largely defunct San Fierro mob, this could lead to future conflicts on the horizon. SAN FIERRO CRIMINAL UNDERGROUND IN TURMOIL April 2, 2020 Twenty twenty, a new decade in a city. San Fierro has always been on the forefront of weapons smuggling, and narcotics trafficking along with many other illegal activities in the state of San Andreas. The city has widely been known for its large LGBT and Asian populations, but of the city’s more local problems, the Chinese community specifically has drawn a lot of interest in recent weeks. A prominent Chinese-American port official was found in the trunk of a car last month after that vehicle was shot up in Los Santos according to authorities. The reason for this individual, currently unnamed as police search for next of kin, to be involved in business with Asian organized crime is unclear but his death was followed by an explosion at his Los Santos property several days later. It remains to be seen whether the violence from Los Santos underworld scene is spilling back over into its neighbors; however, this does show that new organized crime groups are taking over where others had once laid claim. The power vacuum that was left by the once prominent San Fierro mob has grown as the family has become nearly defunct in recent years due to tumultuous chaos within its upper hierarchy. After the death of Patrick Durante in 2014, followed by the deaths of SF enforcer Phil Cefalu, and Durante’s then replacement Anthony Gatti in the following years, there has been some speculation about whether anyone has actually taken up the reins of the defunct San Fierro crime family since Gatti’s 2016 demise. The two most prominent factions in contention for control of what remnants are left of San Fierro mob, appear to be: Richard Novarese a Valenti soldier with close ties to Patrick Durante who never strayed back into Los Santos after Durante’s 2014 death; unlike some of his more greedy counterparts, Novarese has avoided the spotlight in recent years and he may be the acting boss of the SF family according to some sources. Novarese and his button man and enforcer James 'Jimmy' Delutro have avoided the media spotlight so far, but will they be coaxed back into the San Fierro mob scene due to these recent turn in developments? The other main faction vying for control of what’s left of the San Fierro Organized Crime Group is one of the former acting boss Tony Gatti’s closest associates, an old-time button; The nearly seventy-year-old bayside hitman Frank Baldi. He has been seen in the Chinatown district of downtown Los Santos within the last few months however, what his intentions hold remains to be seen. What is certain is that Frank Baldi and another Fierro button John Magro have made multiple trips out to the Las Venturas strip to visit the son of deceased San Fierro enforcer Phil Cefalu, Charles 'Chuckie' Cefalu. Now, what was Charles doing in Las Venturas? Another Durante original has popped back on the San Andreas organized crime radar; James Bruno, a Michael Sarino loyalist, who was apparently running the Visage Resort Hotel & Casino with other notable felons like Charles Cefalu, Samuel Nola, and Anthony 'Lines' Ulino listed as his employees. How was a convicted felon with illicit gambling ties was able to gain control of the most profitable casino and resort hotel on the strip? Apparently through his political connections in city hall gained from years of running operations for once-prominent Los Santos organized crime figures like Patrick Durante and Michael Sarino. The waning influence of the once-dominant organized crime group in San Fierro has not gone unnoticed by the multitude of other criminal organizations planning on staking their claim on the bayside city, as the recent outbreak of violence in the Asian-American community in San Fierro reveals. Albert Afani's body was discovered in the early hours of the morning in an alleyway. SAN FIERRO BRINGING OUT THE MATTRESSES January 30, 2015 The recent discovery of a body has attracted dozens of mob journalists. The corpse belonging to the San Fierro crime group member, Albert Alfani, was found in an alley near the Avispa Country Club. Alfani was shot three times. Instead of a mugging gone wrong, the incident may have been a mob hit with the purpose of sending a message to Alfani’s associates throughout San Fierro. Alfani was a notable affiliate of Anthony Gatti, the successor of Patrick Durante. Gatti became the reputed acting captain of Durante’s Fierro crew between the years 2012-2014. Durante’s death last year solidified Gatti’s position as boss of Fog City. Local law enforcement claims that organized crime in S.F. has taken a turn since the beginning of Gatti’s reign. Investigators have confirmed that there is a list of potential suspects. Other than local trigger-men, the list surprisingly includes the names of a few known L.S. mob figures. In a short press release, the Department of Justice’s Office of Public Affairs exposed the existence of a possible rivalry between Cosa Nostra organizations in Los Santos and San Fierro. The Criminal Division distinctly mentioned Gatti and a number of his underlings, as well as Michael Sarino. The involvement of the two calculating criminals has not been explained in the press release, but further investigation by the DoJ has revealed the rest of the plot. Philip Cefalu is amongst those in the list of suspects. The forty-year-old already had an extensive rap sheet by twenty-five. In 2012 he was inducted into the San Fierro crew. Surveillance has shown that Gatti and Sarino have been meeting regularly, about a month after Sarino’s release in November of last year. Within roughly two weeks of their first sit-down, Gatti’s crew headed by Cefalu made a move to Los Santos to join forces with Sarino. To help clarify the situation, Detective Joe Dino agreed to meet with our team for an interview. “Gatti and Sarino had some sort of an agreement in which everyone somehow made a financial gain.” Dino then explained the confidentiality of the case, but when asked about Cefalu, he continued. “Phil made the move under Gatti’s order, but this must have been a temporary deal. Gatti would never leave his city or let his guys work for someone like Sarino. It never really made sense to anybody how Gatti and Sarino were even able to sit together in the same room. It’s no secret that Sarino played his part in bringing down Durante, who Gatti and the rest of the Fog City crew were most loyal to. This shows how loyalty gets trumped by riches, and that’s the reality of their world. But suppressed issues like these have been known to spark bloody mob wars almost overnight.” Dino then concluded, “for the Fierro gang, deep pockets talk. Cefalu let his hunger for wealth steer him.” Cefalu and Sarino were spotted arriving and leaving San Fierro the same night that Alfani’s body was found. Let your imagination run wild—a deceiving hoodlum and a money-cherishing hot-head come together. Cefalu would be making more money than he ever did if he was allowed to stay in Los Santos, and Sarino wouldn’t mind crossing another boss, allowing Cefalu to make his stay permanent. Knowing which strings to pull, it is fair to assume that Sarino saw to it that Cefalu became a part of his organization. It is likely that Alfani’s death was collateral damage in Sarino’s recently developed scheme. Mike “The Snake” has writers beginning to wonder how much backstabbing the mafia will tolerate.
