LSPDFR — The Ultimate Police Mod for GTA 5 (2026)

LSPDFR (Los Santos Police Department First Response) transforms GTA 5 into a realistic law enforcement simulator. Patrol the streets, respond to calls, perform traffic stops, and manage pursuits as a police officer in Los Santos. This is the most popular roleplay mod for GTA 5.

What You Need Before Installing LSPDFR

Requirement Details Download Source

Step-by-Step LSPDFR Installation

  1. Downgrade GTA 5 — use the version rollback tool to revert to a compatible game version
  2. Install ScriptHookV — copy ScriptHookV.dll and dinput8.dll to your GTA 5 root folder
  3. Install RAGE Plugin Hook — extract all RPH files to your GTA 5 root folder (RAGEPluginHook.exe, RAGEPluginHook.dll, etc.)
  4. Install LSPDFR — extract the LSPDFR archive directly into your GTA 5 directory (merges with plugins/LSPDFR)
  5. Launch via RPH — always start the game using RAGEPluginHook.exe, NOT the regular game launcher
  6. Go on duty — in-game, press F4 to open the RPH console, then enter GoOnDuty or wait for the prompt

Common LSPDFR Issues & Fixes

  • RPH crashes on launch — update RAGE Plugin Hook to latest version; ensure GTA 5 is properly downgraded
  • "LSPDFR failed to load" — check that all files are in the correct plugins/LSPDFR directory structure
  • No callouts appearing — install callout packs (e.g., Assorted Callouts, Code Red Callouts) in plugins/LSPDFR
  • Game freezes during traffic stop — too many plugins; disable conflicting scripts one by one
  • Invisible police cars — install ELS (Emergency Lighting System) and compatible vehicle packs

Recommended Load Order

  1. ScriptHookV + ScriptHookVDotNet
  2. RAGE Plugin Hook (launch game through this)
  3. LSPDFR (core mod)
  4. Stop The Ped + Computer+ (essential plugins)
  5. Ultimate Backup + Arrest Manager
  6. ELS + vehicle packs
  7. Additional callout packs
