  1. 1. There won't be a relaunch until it's fully ready. It's why there is no date, but we're playing it month by month to see how things look before we announce any new date. 2. Different code in the earlier portions. There are some salvageable points of it that are being used, but some of it has to be re-coded. A dev would have to shed more light on that part though. 3. Mainly working on 4, and down the line we can expand to 8, 12, etc post. 4. Image is fixed. Live progress can be found by connecting onto the server which is public for people to join, just as it was before launch. Nobody ever needed to "take our word," they just needed to connect to the very same server the devs work on that has been public for months. Unfortunately, some didn't do that and then wanted to claim something was hidden when it wasn't. We can lead a horse to water, but we can't make it drink.
  2. There will be updates on a monthly basis. It's not the end of the month yet, so will be closer to the end of February/beginning of March.
  3. Already will be done as described in the solutions of Issue 2.
  4. Do you like sand? Welcome though!

    Welcome! Glad to have you.
  6. Thank you everyone for the feedback so far! Feel free to keep adding, we're definitely paying attention and seeing what can be worked.
  7. Feedback thread for the server. Let us know your experience, what can be improved, what went great, what didn't. Be as open as honest as possible so we can ensure we're prioritizing the right fixes and paths!
  8. To keep it simple atm. Federal Law will remain pretty much untouched with certain exceptions which will be detailed in a thread which those are. All State/Local law however will be dictated IG as per our server needs.

    LCRP Launch

    The time is coming! LC, here we come.
  10. We're open for business! In our push to launch, we will begin to review business applications for people who are interested in having a business ready and waiting on Day One of server launch. We are committed to having a creative, dynamic, and fulfilling business environment to accompany our realistic economy to ensure players will have options to roleplay in a manner that fits their development, while also making profits for people who have the business savy to make major gains in the market. Information on the economics of the server may be found below for those who may have forgotten the plan. There has been some updates since then, but 99% of the framework as presented in the spoiler is still as accurate today as it was with only minor changes (EX: Commands are not accurate.) This is again still to be used in conjunction with the Simulated Market (Which will have more announcements post-launch), with the information also being found below. Business Regulations As we believe in LCRP that the grind of a server should not prevent you from roleplaying your characters appropriately, we are committed to ensuring that businesses are given to players for free, however there are some rules that must be followed that will be expanded upon in a separate topic but here are the highlights for now; You must roleplay with the business actively. Exact activity requirement will be set down the line, but if you are found to not be roleplaying with the business it will be taken away from you and you will have to wait a certain amount of time before you can repeat the process of gaining a new business. You must follow all server rules and regulations regarding how businesses must operate and function. (EX: Money placed in a business menu for salaries & basic utility bills, cannot just be stolen by a player as those are server protected assets. Only profits can be robbed as that is from the players rather then the server.) You must maintain a forum presence as well as an in-game presence with your business. As long as you are able to follow those basic three, you should be fine in the operation in your business. Additional regulation, procedures, and protocols will be released down the line and moderated by the Faction Support Team. Application If you would like a business, this is the place to request it. Keep in mind that any custom mapping will be the players responsibility, but with our in-game furniture script, this should be an easy task even for the most inexperienced person to easily custom map their business property once it is given. You will also before launch be given the opportunity to create your character, and go in-game to map your property if approved before server launch. Additional details on this process will come later, but questions are always welcome. The only requirement for you to apply, is that you have an accepted UCP application at the time of submission. Otherwise, this will result in an auto-denial.
  11. Server Trailer #3 The third trailer for LCRP is finally here! Keep up with the series below, as we approach our release. Trailer #1 Trailer #2 More updates to come. Thank you all for your patience!
  12. Moving this to general discussion rather then suggestions.
  13. Hello LCRP, The Beta Test will be planned for Sunday, August 27th, 12:30pm GMT-5 (5:30pm GMT+1). Here are some quick notes on what to expect during the test; All you require for this testing is a UCP account. Whitelisting will only begin happening on server release, so by then you will need to have an accepted application but not just yet. UCP is here to register your account if you have not yet done so, as this will be your login to the server. All characters made during this test will be entirely deleted upon the actual server release. We would advise not to spend a considerable amount of time on character creation menus, as this will not be the final character you will be making in order to actually play. All features as they are currently operable on the server (of which there are too many to name), will be available for usage. For the time being pricing for all items should be in realistic ranges (excluding vehicles and property purchases for purposes of testing), so please note that the economics are not yet finalized for the realistic economy system and won't be until launch day. The main purpose as stated previously of this test is to be server stability, however will also be open for limited roleplay as well. Meaning that if you are intending to do any particular actual roleplay, you are to do so at your own risk. Staff will punish any players that violates any OOC rules, or deliberately is preventing you from just being on the server (By like DM, etc.) However we are not here to enforce the general rules of how we will be roleplaying on launch. If you are intending to do any story building of your character/faction development pre-launch during this, we will accept from a lore perspective what you have done and allow it to be carried on when you make your actual character including if you were to screenshot scenes, or produce any particular form of media in regards to it. All names of characters must be a legitimate first and last name. If you create a character with a non-rp name, you will be punished accordingly. Regardless of if you're there to do any legitimate roleplay, or simply to look around and experience the script as it stands. (Sidenote: Script will only accept First & Lastname format. Names with anything extra such as William O'Connell, will not be accepted at this time upon character creation.) The map has been drastically being improved and worked upon, but there is still a lot of work we have yet to do. Please ensure if you find map bugs that haven't already been reported on the discord map-bugs section, please ensure you make a post so we can work to ensure we're fixing it. The server as it stands is around 7GB. So if you have a slow internet that will need time to download it, we would advise you connect to the server today to download the files, to be ready for the test. The test is only intended to last a couple of hours "officially," but the server will continue to be up and available to you up until the day of launch. A note to this. This will also mean that if you start some RP during this Beta Test that may not necessarily wrap up for whatever reason that may be, you of course can continue with it up until the day of launch. Again, stats will be entirely wiped. But the stories you create, the staff will honor it for post-launch so long as you can prove the RP was actually done in this capacity. Important Hotkeys to note during this test to cut down on potential hounding of questions. Z = Player Menu L = Lock/Unlock Car (Also /lock) Up Arrow = Start Car (Also /engine) Down Arrow = Stop car. (Also /engine) C = Crouch (Yes, we have an actual crouch. It replaces the default GTA system) F2 = Enable Curser (Useful to close out of menus that aren't closed by the ESC key.) F5 = Cell Phone F6 = Animation Menu F7 = Firemode Selector (Safe, Semi, Auto, Burst) F8 = Screenshot Key F9 = Photo Mode Important Commands to note during this test to cut down on potential hounding of questions. /reconnect = Quickly do this command to reconnect if you face some strange bug. Typically will fix most issues if you run into them. /fixhud = If your HUD displaces itself from where it should be, you will do this command to fix it. /torso = Clip fixing tool. Use it if your clothes clip to set the torso. /help chat = You can fully customize your chat. These will list the commands to do so. /help = Obvious. /helpmenu = The prefered /help menu. Use this as your first=hand guide to commands. And /help as secondary. MLO's are still giving us issues, although a few have been entirely blocked off. If you see any open interiors around the server, it is best to avoid them as they are from default GTA IV, and will usually glitch you into the floor. Just a fair warning with these but some examples being (Burger Shots, Hospitals, Certain Abandoned Buildings, etc.) The staff team will be on standby to help facilitate any special requests or answering of any questions during the testing period. Some of these requests are as follows; General Assistant (Questions or Bug related issues) Property/Furniture system testing. If you are wanting to experience how these features work, /report IG for an admin to assist. As these are not placed around the map normally just yet and won't until launch day. Faction system testing. This will be limited to official factions for the time being. Meaning LCPD, LCN, FIB, FDLC, Liberty Tree, and Weazel News. This system is still a bit WIP, so it's full rollout will only be for launch. Staff applications are open for anyone who wishes to help. If you want to assist us in making this a great place to roleplay, go ahead and join up here! Modders who wish to join, please message me directly as we would love to get some additional active modding team members on our team. Mappers who wish to join, please message @Sid directly through a forum pm. Let's make this test something to be rather proud of! We have come so far, but we still got more to do. Keep involved, help us improve this product for you all, and let's get LCRP to a release! Thank you for reading.
  14. August 27, 2023 August 27, 2023 August 27, 2023 Good evening, everyone! We've been trying our hardest to contain our excitement to announce the release of our first Beta test. With long over due delays, long nights of testing in the background, developers tirelessly catering to our annoying requests for bug fixes, pep talks and congrats to our dedicated team of testers... we are announcing our public Beta to you. All you will need to be able to access the Beta is to have a UCP account registered, as the server will not be whitelisted until launch. Exact timing of the launch will be announced closer to the date and posted in this topic. We are so damn close to getting this thing off the ground and providing a fantastic new environment for text roleplayers on Rage to play. Since the conception of our project, we've been gathering staff from over the world to provide a well-balanced team of admins, mappers, modders, developers, event planners, and marketing teams that will support the server at all times of the day. What this means for you is there will more than likely be a live person available waiting to help you when something goes sideways, you have a question or even crafting roleplay experiences in the game. We've had time to get to know each and every one of our staff members in order to make sure we have a great line up for you on day one. As you can tell by our goofy pictures, we've had some tough times trying to make a beautiful project work how we'd like it to. We're not going to cover up our faults and say we're perfect because we're not. We are though, dedicated to this project in it's entirety. Over 3 years ago we began this endeavor with a main goal in mind that we didn't want to release until the time was right. We're close, so damn close. We're in the final stages of development for our V2 script and we can see the light at the end of the tunnel. "What does this mean for ME?" I'm glad you asked. Starting August 27th, you are cordially invited to participate in our pre-launch Beta. Here's what our development team will be looking for during this period: Server load - How well the server handles a large number of players and how stable it is. Large bugs - Bugs that severely affect the server such as money glitches, invisibility glitches, script exploits, and so on. Loading times - Time it takes for your computer to connect to the server and how it handles each incoming connection. However we will also be hosting some OOC events such as the following during the Beta Test to enjoy the map of LC in this state: Deathmatches Racing/Pursuits Script System Showcases We need everyone's help to participate in this Beta by submitting bug reports that will be vetted by our staff and then forwarded directly to developers. This can be accomplished by going to our "server-bugs" channel on the discord that can be found here. And we also of course need assistance on just finding things within the script that may need to be looked into before launch. So now that pleasantries are over... IP: play.lc-rp.gg:1100 https://ucp.lc-rp.gg/ Welcome to Liberty City Roleplay Beta. Credits to @Crunchy for this announcement and to the entire LCRP Staff and Development Teams for making this a real possibility given how far we have come. The finish line is approaching!
  15. Locking this thread due to the closure of the contest. There was no winner of this contest, due to no submissions. We will revisit this again in the future, along with other contests.
  16. Hello, everyone As we approach our release, we are announcing a faction video competition within the community to be showcased on the official LCRP Youtube page. The winner of this video competition will receive donator status on the server from the date of launch for three months, along with a cash prize of $300. In order for a faction to be eligible for this competition, the rules are as follows; The faction must have a faction thread on the forums. In order to be eligible to receive the reward, you must meet the following criteria; You must be the submitter of the video. (EX: Whoever fills out the submission form, is the one who will be eligible for the reward only.) You must have approval from the faction leader on your video portrayal of the faction. You must ensure the video showcases Liberty City, along with the faction. (EX: You must have scenes which show the map of Liberty City in some capacity.) You must ensure the video is at the bare minimum one minute, but longer is preferred. It should be noted that multiple submissions for one faction are acceptable from different individuals, so long as they have the approval of the faction leader of the portrayal. The contest submission deadline will be Sunday, August 20th, 11:59pm (US Eastern Standard Time) and results will be announced on Sunday, August 27th. It should be known that when you submit the video fitting the criteria above, you are agreeing to allow LCRP the rights to use the video in question in official marketing in the promotion of the server, regardless of if that video was the winner of the contest or not. Questions for this contest can be directed to @Brett, and members of staff are available to assist with submissions with the LC map if necessary. Submission forms can be submitted here.

    May 5th Update

    May 5th Update Hello, everyone, today is an important date for us. We are happy to invite you all to our trial server, in preparation for the server launch. During this trial, you will get to interact with the script in it's current state of development and experience a few of the features that will be vital to your roleplaying experience. Although not every system will be available to you during this, the basic commands and functionality should allow you to make a firm perspective on the state of development of the server and what it will be moving to offer in the full server release. This is what we ask from you during the trial: Stress test our script. Try to find ways to break what you see. Provide development/community feedback. Remember: This is not the server launch. Your play testing will help build a better final version. We would like to thank all of the community members for voicing their concerns regarding the lack of a public server. Whilst we will not be officially coordinating testing sessions with players, we will still allow you to explore the map and report bugs on your own. On 05/14/2023 at 8:00pm GMT +1, we will be holding our first public stress test and we invite you to check out the server. The server will be open indefinitely. Server Feedback - link discussion We will be curious to see your first impressions. Make sure to leave a comment. Your opinion matters. Stress Test: Instructions 1. In order to access the server, you need to register an account on the UCP. 2. Load RageMP and connect to the following server: LCRP TRIAL SERVER. 3. Once in-game, create a character. 4. Open the LCRP server commands and use them to experience the environment. 5. Start recording (optional but best for evidence). 6. Attempt to break the server. 7. Report map bugs here. 8. Report server bugs here. LCPD Openings We also announce the following recruitment opportunities for the Liberty City Police Department. This will be open to all members of the community to apply for, but preference will be given to existing members of the LCPD Faction but we encourage everyone who is interested to apply: x1 Chief of Department x1 Police Commissioner If interested, please fill out this form.
  18. Fair enough, then the question would be how best to relay that information to players. What would you suggest to make that a bit better?
  19. If they have access to the forum, they have access to this section: https://forum.lc-rp.mp/index.php?/forum/197-the-liberty-heritage-foundation/ Even if you discount the journal for accessibility, you have faction threads, character threads, news clippings, etc. There is a million ways to get the lore that is spread all throughout the forums. Even if you just put information down saying how you know it followed New York lore up to a point from the continuity topic in the server information section, you would still be on point. This would be a different story if that thread was the only way to read up on the lore. But it is by far the only accessible piece of information that someone can use.
  20. This is the lore question. It's a personal question of what you know about the lore, and how you understand it. It's answerable in around three sentences and doesn't need to go super in-depth at all. The application to join the Fire Department or any major faction is longer then this UCP app. And considering how this is the only rule being talked about, I won't go into the other questions being even more simple then that. I'm not understanding at all how this question is off-putting, and it is my firm opinion that if you can't write like maybe no more then 7 sentences for this entire UCP application, then maybe you shouldn't even be roleplaying at all on the server or consider yourself as someone who is a roleplayer who takes worldbuilding, storybuilding, or character development seriously. Just baffles my mind, personally.
  21. Part 4 - Administrative Title A - Road and Pedestrian Safety Article I - Driving Exemptions Section 411.01 - Exemptions Defined 1.) Public employees, motor vehicles, and other equipment while actually engaged in work upon the surface of a public road, or work of installation, removal, repairing, or maintaining official traffic control devices, are exempt from this title. 2.) The driver of an authorized emergency vehicle is exempt from this title if the vehicle is being driven in response to an emergency call and the driver of the vehicle sounds a siren as may be reasonably necessary and the vehicle displays a lighted red or blue lamp visible as a warning to other drivers and pedestrians. This section does not relieve the driver of a vehicle from the duty to drive with due regard for the safety of all persons using the public road, nor protect him from the consequences of an arbitrary exercise of the privileges granted in that section. Article II - Public Road Markings Section 412.01 - Regulations 1.) Upon all public roads, a vehicle shall be driven upon the right half of the roadway. 2.) Yellow lines in the center of the road divide directions of traffic. Dashed white lines in the road divide lanes of traffic. 3.) A single white line across the roadway perpendicular to the direction of traffic indicates a requirement to come to a complete stop at the line, if there are pedestrians attempting to cross. This includes the first line in front of a marked crosswalk. Article III - Vehicle Right of Way Section 413.01 - Regulations 1.) If, upon approaching a junction containing traffic lights, the traffic light displays a red light, the driver must stop before the white perpendicular line or last perpendicular line of a crosswalk. The driver shall yield the right of way to any and all vehicles before proceeding through the junction. If the traffic light displays a yellow light that is going to a green light, then it is to be treated as a green light. If the traffic light displays a green light, the driver is not required to stop, and may pass through the intersection without stopping. 2.) The driver of a vehicle intending to turn to the left or to complete a U-turn upon a public road, or to turn left into public or private property, or an alley, shall yield the right-of-way to all vehicles approaching from the opposite direction which are close enough to constitute a hazard at any time during the turning movement, and shall continue to yield the right-of-way to the approaching vehicles until the left turn or U-turn can be made with reasonable safety. 3.) The driver of any vehicle about to enter or cross a public road from any public or private property, or from an alley, shall yield the right-of-way to all traffic close enough to constitute an immediate hazard, and shall continue to yield the right-of-way to that traffic until he or she can proceed with reasonable safety. 4.) Upon the immediate approach of an authorized emergency vehicle which is sounding a siren or which has at least one lighted lamp exhibiting blue or red light that is visible, the surrounding traffic shall yield the right-of-way and shall immediately drive to the right-hand edge or curb, clear of any intersection, and thereupon shall stop and remain stopped until the authorized emergency vehicle has passed. 5.) The driver of a vehicle shall yield the right-of-way to a pedestrian crossing within any marked crosswalk or within any unmarked crosswalk at an intersection. 6.) If, upon approaching a junction containing traffic lights the traffic light displays a red light the driver must stop to other vehicles before continuing. If there are no other vehicles at the junction, the driver may proceed cautiously through the junction. If the traffic light displays a yellow light that is going to a green light, then it is to be treated as a green light. If the traffic light displays a green light, the driver is not required to stop, and may pass through the intersection without stopping. (( For the time being, stop at every intersection as if it is a stop sign before going. Give way to the right side of traffic. )) 7.) Within the State of Liberty operators of motor-vehicles must observe safe vehicle operations around stationary emergency vehicles. Drivers are required by law to move to an adjacent lane when passing a stationary emergency vehicle. If moving to an adjacent lane is either not possible or not safe, the driver must slow their vehicle to 30 MPH before passing the stationary emergency vehicle. This is to ensure the safety of emergency personnel and property. Article IV - Vehicle Impounds / Towing / License Suspensions Section 414.01 - Vehicle Impounds Vehicle Impounds for certain offenses shall be detailed within this section as to when it is acceptable and when other means are warranted in the following list; Any vehicle involved in the commission of a crime, and/or to which the owner of said vehicle has been arrested, impounded until the release of the suspect, or at least until the end of a 48 hour period since the arrest occurred. Any vehicle/owner who has accumulated four or more traffic-related fines, within the timespan of one week. May be retrieved after a total of seven days have passed since impoundment. Any vehicle that is illegally imported into the United States. Automatic seizure of the vehicle, and a federal arrest warrant for the registered owner issued. If a vehicle does not meet the definitions above to be impounded/seized, but is somehow causing a hindrance through other traffic-related offenses, the vehicle is authorized upon officer discretion to be towed to a safe location to remove the disruption. Section 414.02 - License Suspensions License suspensions, unless specifically dictated otherwise for specific traffic-related offenses, may be issued after a certain number of offenses on a particular charge have been accumulated on someone's record. These suspensions may last no longer than seven days, and may only be issued after the 3rd offense of a specific charge upon officer discretion.
