Hi everyone, With the public launch of RAGE we're off to a great start. It's great to see so many returning and also members getting to experience our server. We've seen over 600 new characters created in the previous month, and we're excited to see even more as time goes on. Our most recent update removed problematic mapping which was resulting in crashes, and have implemented further bug fixes to improve player experience. If you haven't already, check out our Feature Documentation to see what the server has to offer and how to use these features. Without further ado, here's this months community update: Commerce & Estate Team We are very happy to see so much interest in properties and companies. We want to assure that all requests, questions, concerns or suggestions related to properties and companies won't be left unseen. In case of the doubt regarding anything, then easiest way is to Private Message any of us on the forums to let your thoughts known about. To remind about point of contact within the Commerce and Estate Teams: Commerce Team: Manages business-related tasks, including leases, company perks (vehicles, mapping), and entrepreneurial applications. Head of Commerce Team — @danut Assistant Head of Commerce Team — @Slice Estate Team: Oversees player-owned residential properties, complexes, and market pricing adjustments to match the server economy. Head of Estate Team — @Caledonite Assistant Head of Estate Team — @DadoJ Before full release of the relaunch happened, almost all of Property Requests were updated. If you also believe there is anything missing from Property Requests section or something is extremely unclear, then you can let the Leadership of Estate Team know about it and it'll be looked into. Property Interiors List in the section is still waiting to be updated to include some of the recent GTA Online DLCs and other usable interiors, so keep your eye out for additional interiors availability within next week. Additionally almost all server owned businesses have been also updated and set up to accommodate your everyday needs whilst playing on the server in terms of specific buyable items and specific actions — you can now find fuel canisters in gas stations and you can also access most banks across San Andreas properly now! We've also noticed that there has been repeated question about how does a player get a business lease. Answer is very simple: through a company and lease application in Company Requests section. You can find the lease application here! Make sure you've got specific idea in mind and file for an application to bring your vision to life. Illegal Faction Team The Illegal Faction Team have been working tirelessly to ensure factions are supported in this transition to RAGE. We've selected a number of official and verified factions who'll be in control of the flow of weapons and drugs onto the server as well as providing many of them with businesses and other opportunities for roleplay. As we see how things progress, we'll be reopening our schemes and allowing unofficial factions who've opened during and before launch the opportunity to gain Verified status early. We're looking forward to the many factions that've supported us, we're excited to see their activity and quality of their roleplay over the coming days and weeks. A massive shout out to E/S Playboys 13 (formerly 38th Street), Valenti Crime Family and Hell Runners Motorcycle Club. We've also selected several factions as Verified. S/O to Delegation of Tribe Rukn, Los Renegados Motorcyle Club and The Mexican Mafia (If you'd like to find out more about faction advancement, please follow this link). We're so excited to see the roleplay that comes out of these factions, and all of the unofficial factions who've joined us pre-launch.

Congratulations everyone!

Hi everyone, First and foremost, Happy New Year! We hope you all had a great time celebrating and spending time with loved ones over the month of December. Recently within the community there have been several threads offering thoughts, feedback, and opinions. We'd like you to know that Management are listening and changes are coming, thank you for being patient with us! As we enter the new year, we intend on regularly promoting the RAGE server in the run up to a relaunch date being announced. We recognise that updates and visibility have been limited for a period of time, and that hasn’t gone unnoticed. Going forward, this will change. In the weeks ahead, we’ll be increasing the frequency of marketing material and communications, offering clearer insight into development progress and what’s being worked on behind the scenes. This ramp-up will continue steadily right up until release, ensuring the community is informed, aligned, and confident in the direction we’re taking. The development team ( @danut and @n0de101 ) have been churning out updates and fixes for the RAGE server with the help of our tester team and RAGE Insiders and we're looking forward to having this experience available for the wider community. Without further ado, here's our January Community Update: Illegal Faction Team We've had a rough month as IFC/T, as many of you are aware of - as a result of both the holiday period and the current state of the server, things have been slow all round. Following the resignation of two of our Illegal Faction Council members, we're currently considering a number of applications for the role of IFC. There's currently two roles to fill and while the applications are not currently closed; we're excited to announce that @SammyG has been added to the Illegal Faction Council to support IFC/T in rebuilding their structure and focus on supporting the community. We believe that his experience within the illegal roleplay scene will be a great asset to the team. Keep your eye on future announcements, as there's still some strong applicants being considered for the remaining role. I feel that there may be some expectations for us to address the recent discourse that many have seen across the forums and discord, however I feel as though enough has been said on this matter. We're hoping to leave the negativity in 2025, and have a productive and positive new year - onwards and upwards! To make it absolutely clear to the community, IFC/T will continue to support both RAGE and SAMP servers for as long as either or both exist and we've got some exciting things coming soon for both servers! If you've missed it, our wonderful SAMP developer @Robstrap has returned from holidays and already got cracking with a highly requested feature which is now in it's testing phase. You may have seen the below image in #snippets on the LSRP discord. This is a hefty addition to the server, we're excited to work out the kinks alongside the tester team. This feature will reduce the reliance on schemes and applications for the community to be able to participate in realistic drug roleplay without the paperwork. We will also be opening the Illegal Faction Team applications in the new year, so keep your eye out for the announcement if you'd like to get involved. The Illegal Faction Team play a pivotal role in shaping the direction of future updates and features. We encourage anyone interested in supporting SAMP and/or RAGE to get involved. I'd also like to acknowledge that there's not been our usual monthly newsletter, this is due to a number of things - the server is obviously pretty quiet currently and there's been little note-worthy faction activity aside from the unfortunate closure of some of our long standing official factions such as Eastside Hustler Crip. Currently IFC/T needs a lot of work internally before we can produce a significant update for the community. We appreciate all of the feedback we've received, and are hoping that with some time the community will see the changes and updates planned for the server. Staff Update Here are some of December's Key Metrics: There were a total of 678 reports handled There were a total of 399 help requests handled There were a total of 138 character applications handled Congratulations to our newly promoted staff members ...

Welcome back DandoJ @DadoJ

Hi everyone, November is done and we're heading into the most wonderful time of the year! The last community update of 2025 is here, and we can't believe how fast this year has flown by. It feels like 2025 has happened in a flash! It might feel a little early to be saying this, but a Happy Christmas to those celebrating. Without further ado, here's our December Community Update: Development Team SA-MP Update (/startshift): A new system is here to let you earn money working shifts at businesses across the city, rewarding you for your roleplay in both player-owned and server-owned businesses. It'll be added to the server upon server restart within the next day/two however in preparation, here’s a quick guide on how it works: Player-Owned Businesses: If a player owns the business, only they (or high-ranking employees) can manage who works there. You must be an employee of the business and the business owner/manager must grant you the "Start Shift" permission. Once you have permission, go inside the business and type /startshift to begin earning! Once you're done and want to clock out, you can /leaveshift. If you decide to leave the premises of your workplace, you'll be automatically removed from the shift after 5 minutes. For Business Owners: You cannot use /startshift at your own business. This system is for your employees to use. Use /setshift to set the hourly pay and the maximum number of people who can work simultaneously (the "limit"). You can grant or revoke the "Start Shift" permission for any employee if you have the Modify Powers rank/permission. Be aware that the funds to pay your staff gets taken from your business cash-box, keep this topped up or risk some unhappy staff members! Server-Owned Businesses: These are businesses that the server owns (e.g., they have no character owner). If the server has enabled shifts for the business, you can use /startshift inside the building to begin working! If you decide to leave the premises of your workplace, you'll be automatically removed from the shift after 5 minutes. It'll take us a little time once the update is live to manually set each individual server-owned business to be used for /startshift. Keep an eye out on the forums and Discord for more updates on what areas have been handled; if there's a server-owned business that you'd like to make sure is added quickly, please reach out to a member of Commerce & Estate team with the business ID to speed things up. Illegal Faction Team It's been a relatively quiet month for the Illegal Faction Team, however as we go into the holiday period and the server slows down a little we want to continue to make sure we are still constantly providing whatever the server needs to maintain activity. As of late, there's been an increased interest in prison roleplay which we're always excited to see. As a response, we've opened our Prison Scheme & would like to remind anyone who wishes to roleplay long-term prison or parole to reach out to us for support if you'd like to be set up OOCly with either parole/prison time. We recommend anyone interested in getting involved to check out the forum threads for the White Car/Sureno Car and Black Car. We still have plenty of schemes available for both factions and solo players so if you do believe you or your faction might be a good fit for these please submit your application, or reach out the Illegal Faction Team with any queries you may have. We've been working alongside the development team, as usual to brainstorm ideas for future features and we're hoping to continue these discussions into December. As always if you have an idea that you would like to bring forward for possible implementation, please reach out to one of the members of Faction Team Council to assist with a discussion. We're also relaunching our furnishing competition, which was a great success last run. If you're interested in participating again - or for the first time - take a look at the thread and hit us up with your application! Once again, the winner will be awarded 2,000 UCP credits along with runner-up and participation rewards. Your application must be in by 7th December to be in with a chance at winning! With holiday season underway, even if you don’t celebrate it, The Illegal Faction Team hope you enjoy the month of December with your loved ones, friends and family. Remember to keep an eye out for our Illegal Faction Newsletter within the next week for a more detailed overview of the work going on behind the scenes to support the illegal roleplay community.

Hi everyone, With October over, and Halloween finally wrapped up, we have no doubt that within a blink of an eye it will soon be the "C" word (Christmas) and we're already preparing for our festive activities. The most notable event of the month was the Halloween event which was put together at the Dirty Lake and attended by our players. Without further ado, here's our October Community Update: Development Team With the upcoming re-launch of the RageMP server, we want to reiterate our commitment to SA-MP, we have a dedicated team of developers that span both universes and that isn't going to change. Since the last major game update to 14.0, the development team has been hard at work pushing out incremental updates with a bunch of new features, fixes and quality of life improvements. These are always announced on Discord in #game-changelog, but sometimes people miss these, so here's a round up of some of the key changes: - Adds the possibility to burn corpses - Adds messages when you take damage (it can be disabled with: /togdamage) - Adds /sendlocation, send your location to your phone contacts - Adds Romano Pizza mapping in Market - Adds Carson Haul and Wrench company mapping in Fort Carson - Adds "Platinum Cars" mapping in Santa Maria - Adds black coffee, clipboard, popcorn, white coffee custom objects to /hold - Adds 2 red solo cup variants and 8 vape variants to /hold - Adds fireworks - Adds furnishing to business employee powers, grant employees /furniture access - Adds /togglesafezone, business and some select property owners can choose if their business/property is a safezone - Adds /pmd (Prevent My Death) - if you're under 15 health, you can use it to go to 15 hp to prevent death from SAMP physics - Adds quick search to /samaps command without dialog e.g. /samaps 2478 Ganton Bl - Fixes an issue with non-packaged vehicle weapons disappearing - Fixes vehicle weapons turning in to Fists - Fixes an issue with talking animations - Fixes taxi fares calculating incorrectly I know a lot of people are eagerly awaiting more information on the upcoming re-launch of the RageMP server; as much as we’d love to share details with you, we don’t want to give a date and then let people down if we can’t meet it for whatever reason - although internally we're right on track, working away in the background. We’re actively working on RageMP and it’s coming soonTM, we just want to ensure we have an experience worthy of the wait that people are expecting. As soon as we’re in a position we’re happy with, the community will be the first to know. It’s something we’re actively working on and we'll have a separate blog post when we're ready to share. Illegal Faction Team The Illegal Faction Council would like to begin by congratulating the servers newest official faction candidates, Black Organised Crime! The Illegal Faction Team as a whole has thoroughly enjoyed watching this faction grow since it first opened in July. We're excited to work together with B.O.C and see what the future holds! The Illegal Faction Team also recently ran a furnishing competition which has now been concluded for the month of October, and is now in it's final voting stage. Members of the Illegal Faction Team were tasked with reviewing factors like originality, attention to detail and practicality. Keep your eyes peeled for the Illegal Faction Team's monthly newsletter next week for further updates! Over the course of this month we've been discussing how we want schemes to unfold come RAGE's relaunch. These are some extremely important fundamentals that we need to have in place to ensure we, as the Illegal Faction Team give the most amount of roleplay opportunities to illegal factions and players. We've been involved in discussions on drugs and how they're going to work and play out, weapons and pricings for the weapons. We have applications open for the Illegal Faction Team and are looking to fill numerous available spots. If you're interested in helping out with discussions with either Rage or SAMP, we have plenty of open discussions and definitely want your input. If being apart of this team interests you, please do not hesitate to read through the following post and send the Illegal Faction Council your letters of interest. With the holidays coming we understand that factions and players have less and less time to commit to the game, but if you have any ideas or questions that could potentially help your faction or the server in general that us as the Illegal Faction Team could handle, please do not hesitate to reach out to @Aloosh, @Rye or @unlawfulact with your queries.

Good stuff!! I especially like that I can see the images

Congratulations everyone !

Hi everyone, With September over and autumn slowly creeping up on us it's hard to believe that the year is nearing an end. This month we released the first (of many) Illegal Faction Newsletter which includes a wealth of information, and of course Faction of the Month. If you haven't seen it already, check it out.! Here's our October Community Update: Illegal Faction Team Another great month in terms of progress for the Illegal Faction Team. We've introduced another official faction, The Marat Gusarov Brigade. They've been providing high quality Eurasian organised crime roleplay to the server for quite a while now. If you haven't already go and visit their thread and congratulate them on becoming official! Verona Shoreline Crips, a faction which is ran and operated by seasoned gang roleplayers have taken the next step and are now official faction candidates. Look out for this faction as they're taking the gang scene by storm! Over the last month we've been incredibly busy, we've brainstormed ideas on how to improve our faction properties and the quality of them. We recently announced a furnishing competition. This competition aims to assist in the furnishing of faction team properties (which any eligible faction can apply for) whilst also rewarding furnishers of the community by competing against one another for UCP Credit prizes! The winner will be announced next month once all entrants have completed their work, and the voting process is complete. We've also been receiving and noticing an increase of reports regarding behaviour on MyFace which we'll be adding some clarity to our Rules of Engagement to cover. Keep an eye out for the upcoming Illegal Faction Team Update blog post, for more information on what we've been up to and what's coming! We'd like to add that in our recent monthly Illegal Faction Team meeting, we also discussed the lack of existing procedures/policies in place for the relaunch of our RAGE Multiplayer server. (We said the R word! 😱) One of the great things about having a such a dedicated and widely experienced Illegal Faction Team is that we're able to receive feedback from all walks of the community. We're aware discussing our RAGE Multiplayer server is not everyone's cup of tea, and if this is you, we'd like to reassure you that SA-MP will remain the focus of the Illegal Faction Team just as it has since we returned. We are however ensuring that when the RAGE Multiplayer server is ready to go, so are we. If you'd like to get involved in discussions surrounding the illegal roleplay scene on either, or both servers please reach out to the Illegal Faction Council with your interest. Once again, we have plenty of schemes available to apply for, and we're excited to continue our work with our Development Team to come up with updates for SA-MP. If you think you have something to bring to the table, that would benefit the illegal scene don't be afraid to reach out to @Aloosh@Rye or @unlawfulact. Staff Update Here are some of September's Key Metrics: There were a total of 2377 reports handled There were a total of 2297 help requests handled There were a total of 338 character applications handled We saw a large number of applications come through for Tester and after long deliberations between the leadership team, we want to share a massive congratulations to our new testers! Our Head of Testers @celestine will be reaching out to you.

Great stuff

Hi everyone, In a flash August is over! We're thrilled to share updates regarding what has been happening across the community. Ranging from Illegal Faction Team updates to our Staff Update. One thing I've personally enjoyed over the past month from the community is the increase in the number of media outlets and content from the streets of Los Santos. If you haven't seen the articles yet, you can see them in the Internet subforum, amongst many other things others are up to. Without further ado, our September Community Update: Illegal Faction Team It's been another terrific and productive month for the Illegal Faction Team. We've brought on a number of new members to the Illegal Faction Team following recent LOI's being submitted and reviewed, we're grateful to have had so many veteran applicants to eager join the team. We've been busy hounding developers with script ideas to help improve realistic roleplay around the server and offer different avenues to conduct certain things. I won't tease anything just yet, but be sure to look out for any new features coming soon! We'd personally like to thank the developers that are assisting us and allowing the teams members to engage in thoughtful discussions that could improve the server. A friendly reminder that all of the schemes that we offer are open, if you believe these interest you and want to see if you fit the requirements please check out the posts here: As some may be aware, Barons Motorcycle Club was locked and archived this month alongside Serbian Transnational Criminal Organisation (STCO). We'd personally like to thank every member and leader of these factions in their efforts to provide the server with high quality roleplay. They've both made a huge impact on the server during their time as official. Their efforts in maintaining a positive and active atmosphere will be missed and we hope to see these faction and their members around someday. With that being said over the last few months we have have had our eyes on a particular faction for some time. They've gone through a lot of ups and downs in recent months, and overall the Illegal Faction Team and Council are impressed with their handling of everything thrown at them while still maintaining a impressive activity level; bringing much needed high-quality street level roleplay to the Idlewood area. We would like to congratulate this faction on becoming the servers newest official faction. Congratulations, 59th & Harlows Bloods. Finally, we'd like to mention the the Illegal Faction Discord now has a functioning ticket system, and we encourage any queries/questions/concerns you may have to be raised through these tickets for a swift and easy response. Whether it's clarification of Rule of Engagement, queries/concerns surrounding your interactions with other factions, or questions about our available schemes - these tickets the best way to open a direct line with our Illegal Faction Team who are eager to help. For an invite, click here. Company Team This month we have incorporated a new employee income system. This system is quite simple , once per month, active companies will receive a monetary grant straight into their company bank account. This money can be used by companies to pay their employees an hourly pay check. Our hope is that with this addition, more people will be interested in joining companies as they are able to guarantee income for employees, and on top of this, it should also allow companies to pursue more unique roleplay ideas, whilst still being able to support their staff. The company team has also grown this month, receiving support from some additional staff members. Tester Team Applications We're looking for individuals to join our team. If you're passionate about helping others, and want to contribute towards making LS-RP an even better place, we need YOU! Applications are open until end of day 21st September 2025.
