rrrright "recover" the cars

Preety cool mod

very good idea, have never been thinking on that before, but now i realize that you never see people steal cars, which isn't realistic at all :)

10/10, excellent idea!

why dont i ever see white people steel cars o.o

@epicmodpac - No idea. I have seen little old ladies steal cars from inside the Grotti dealership, and they were white.

where is my "scripts" folder i dont have one, should i make one or put it in the main gta iv directory with my other mods?

I was fighting the cops and then this ladies steals a cop car and i run away while the cops chance her XD good times good times.......

@the_pie_dude - make a "scripts" folder in your main directory.

@gameassassin - hilarious, good times indeed :D

it doesn't works for me. i placed it on IV directory, where i have all the mods. after i placed it on the scripts folder ( i created it for this mod) but nothing. i put 10 on the number but nothing

@L382P it has to go into GTAIV/scripts as its a dotnetscript not a standard asi script.

also i will be posting 2 vids following these guys around, some funny stuff esp when the full traffic is on and the cops try to stop them,

@epicmodpac - I think 'cause, whites aren't pore as black(I'm not racing!)

I'm download today.

The reason that I deleted this is beacuse when I went out of the safehouse a thief stoled my car parked on the save point!And I was like a FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU Rage guy...

awesome 10/10, the game has a model ped "m_y_thief.wdd". Please add the guy, let he steals cars too and he not have company,cars. Like in GTA 2.

Fix your mod give thieves not m4 for example mp5 or uzi.

so this mod will make not niko another people will steal car?

the peds are first spawning in the car. this idea is cool.

Nicé, but there is an error,

Error during NetHook.Tick:

System.AccessViolationException: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.

at GTA.ScriptDomain.RemoteEvent(RemoteEventArgs ev)

at GTA.ScriptDomain.ProcessRemoteEvents()

at GTA.ScriptDomain.Tick()

at GTA.NetHook.Tick()

How do i fix this?

@SuperSvekke - this error occurs all the time, but to my knowledge, it has no detrimental effects on scripts. Does your script or game crash when this error comes up?

@Prof_Farnsworth, the script crashes, and then i have to restart my gta iv, otherwise they don't steal the cars anymore, also the script crashes if i dump a BUS and a few seconds later, Error in Script "Stealingcars".

(Im from belgium, my english isn't that good :) )

Btw very nice mod :)

I forgot to mention, these error line's,

2012-07-06 12:48:59 - Error during Tick in script 'stealingCars.stealingCars':

Bizarre that it crashes the script, as I have seen this error many times (with this script and others) and the crew still spawns. I have seen them take a bus, but I wasn't driving it. Let me have a look at it, and I will try to post an update shortly.

Thanks.

I tried again with the bus, this time the script dont crashes. and the crew stealed the bus. Also, i'm using the mod LCPDFR, its mostly there where it crashes. but, the next time it crashes, i wil look a few minutes to my abandoned car. if the crew come and gets it, i will keep my eyes on it.

Have a nice day :)

@SuperSvekke - I am not sure about the compatibility with LCPDFR. After reading the error log more closely, I realized I have not seen this specific error before. There is no problem in the code that I can see. Have you tried it without LCPDFR?

@Prof_Farnsworth, i'm getting sick i have gta iv installed for the 5th time, because there's always somethings that is messing with my gta, Somethimes it's that stupid ELS, after that clean install of gta i have not istalled lcpdfr on it. but i have downloaded a car pack (Ultimate hd car pack) an installed, also installed your Abandoned Vehicle Cleanup 2. but now, without any f*cking reason, the game crashes,...

I dont get the failure of the game. Why is it crashing? I dont wanna install gta iv a 6th time. if it dont wanna run smoothly with mods i dont wanna play it anymore because without mods gta iv s*cks

Do you know any solution?

Grtz.

Get scripthook version 1.7.1.7. You are using 1.7.1.4. This should help. As for the ASI loader error, I am not sure.

And it looks like you still have something from ELS running, otherwise all those "ELS" lines would not be in your scripthook log.

Indeed, i have upgraded my scripthook to 1.7.1.7, indeed i have ELS installed. do you use Alexander Blade's asi loader?

No, I use Xliveless. Did updating the scripthook help at all? This mod should not have any impact on ASI mods or loaders, as it is purely .net.

Ok, indeed updating the scripthook helped a lot, now i can play 45 minutes without crashing.

You know what error this is?

No idea, best to ask the gents at LCPDFR.com. They are usually very helpful in solving problems people have with LCPDFR, and their advanced hook.

@Prof_Farnsworth: Thanks for your help, but i uninstalled LCPDFR because thats the reason that almost none of my other scripts work proper, And i've got the solution for my error (System.AccessViolationException: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.) I've had an commandline where with -availablevidmem 2 but my videocard only have 1GB GDR5. and i have set -availablevidmem 2 to -availablevidmem 1 and now it crashes less. :)

Glad to hear everything's working.

:), can you make a Roadworks script? That spawn roadworks over whole liberty city? do you know what i mean? I realy want a script that some roadworkers are blocking the traffic and there are people working on the road? Because that also in real life :)

( i know gta iv already got roadworks, but i want more roadworks :)

Could be done, but I would need the locations for the crews (X, Y, Z locations of intersection or lane to be blocked). I don't think I will have time for a while to look for them. The script would be pretty simple and small itself.

@Prof_Farnsworth. i ve been trying to contact you.i am a great fan of yours.this mod, fire fighter mod and others are awesome.i love those suble ambient changes that make gta 4 great...so here is a request...plz can you consider them?just like your FIRE INSPECTOR mod, in a shootout, fire or automatically a WEASEL van appears in the street with 1 driver,i reporter and 1 cameraman.after coming out of the van the reporter covers a random story facinf the camera man and they get in the car and go away...you can add voice from weasel news radio news. howas that sound?its my dream man...i hope you can make it true.also roadwork would be cool.waiting for your reply.

@Prof_Farnsworth, Put the X Y Z locations in such a script is that difficult? because i realy want that :). I like playing the game with your scripts they are amazing!

@SuperSvekke - Not difficult to put them in, just time consuming to find them all.

@ayanpati - Could be done. It is a nice idea. I am not sure there is a camera model for the cameraman to use though, is there? Glad you are enjoying the mods. Very kind of you to say.

@ prof farnsworth...........yeah right...but i think you can work something out...use the hand camera object if u dont find any suitable alternative but plz make it man.
