Persistence3 1.0.6

After having tried all of the mods for persistent vehicles that I could get my hands on, I determined that none of them worked up to my level of expectations. I was most happy with the simple functionality of the great work by ImNotMentaL and his Persistence mods. Unfortunately, he doesn't seem to be updating his mods anymore and the latest version of Persistence II has bugs that make it extremely difficult to play around. I was able to dig up an old version of Persistence I, which does still work, but it has issues that become more apparent when you have 100 or more cars. To counter some of those issues, he introduced the streaming system in Persistence II but as mentioned, is now buggy with later releases of Scripthook. All of this led me on a quest to build a version of a reliable vehicle persistence mod that worked as I wanted. So, without further ado, I am uploading my version, fully re-written, in the spirit of ImNotMentaL's mod but with all new source code: Persistence3
This is a work in progress and I'm sure some bugs will crop up. Tag me in comments and I will try and address them.
Requirements -
Latest Scripthook
Newtonsoft.Json (included in archive)
Legacy and Enhanced compatibility. (minor issues on Enhanced - WIP)
Install:
Unzip contents into scripts folder
To use:
Keyboard -
Press "L" to lock and save a vehicle after exiting. Press "L" again when near to unlock.
Controller -
Press the interact key when near vehicle.
What Dat Mod Do:
Script "should" save all mods, paint, liveries, etc. I do need feedback if you encounter any errors or mods not being saved properly. I'm currently playing with 150 vehicles, and they all seem to be saving and respawning as expected.
Known issues:
Enhanced Edition issues working on implementing fixes, need user feedback.
--- Crew Emblems, Drift Tires and Vehicle Stance
Suspected issues:
Add-on cars (unverified)
Will need specific model names and links to troubleshoot if you run into issues.
Tag me in comments.
Version 1.0.6

UI and notification tweaks
INI now has a setting for Enhanced Edition experimental features.
(Use at your own risk, may cause crashes and WILL crash on Legacy.)

INI adjustment
Version 1.0.4
Fixed bug with animation

If you like the mod, smash that like button, give me some stars, and follow. Thanks for the support!
If you use one of the old Persistence mods by @ImNotMentaL, it will run alongside this one due to the L default setting in the ini. I used this method to convert my cars over to my mod. Then I changed the ini back to E for my own game, but that's your choice. You can use the same method with just about any of the current car saving mods.
@TobiasPious No think the animation may have introduced a new bug, I'm testing that right now.
@RebelDragon1976 The joys of programming lmao. No worries dude this will be the best persistence mod for GTA 5 I'm sure (if it isn't already)
@TobiasPious Soon as mods approve my upload, I already fixed the bugs and the tire smoke color bug. I had that fixed once before I thought but I had to redo it.
@RebelDragon1976 Cool I can test it when I get home from work. Would it be possible in a future update to only make bought cars lockable as an option? GTA 5 natively flags vehicles as stolen or not right? Would be a cool feature.
@RebelDragon1976 I'll try this out! thanks man. I'll update you if I have bugs I encountered
@RebelDragon1976 This is definetely better than the previous one, just one more bug to fix: fix the ped unable to enter vehicle.
@Shukuno I won't be able to fix that one as its a game bug. To confirm, you said it worked with a different vehicle?
@RebelDragon1976 My bad, I think I made it confusing by using the trainer's terminology. The two features I'm referring to are called Low Grip Tires (drift tires in the trainer) and Vehicle Stance (lower vehicle in the trainer) in GTA Online. The first is found in the vehicle mod menu and the latter is found in the interaction menu.
@Unsearchably Gotcha. If you're interested in helping me hmu on discord and I'll keep you in the loop on upcoming patches.
@RebelDragon1976 unfortunately now it can't, they can only enter via destroying the window when im out of the vehicle. Otherwise the animation keeps on spamming
@Shukuno That sounds very odd and not like it should be related to this mod. I the vehicle is unlocked, the vanilla game engine should be handling it. Can you message me on discord? I'd like to see what other mods you may be running and try to duplicate your issue.
Enhanced is free if you own Legacy?
@marlonius I have my modlist built off legacy and I'm too busy/lazy to convert everything over to enhanced. I may eventually get around to it but then again, we may get 6 before then. lol
@RebelDragon1976 sure man! drop your @
@Shukuno RebelDragon76
@RebelDragon1976 Hello bro, can I change the car locking sound effect? I think the Persistence 2 one sounds better lol
@eddie0704 I'll see if I can do something about that in the future to give an option in the ini. Personally, I like the horn better because on bicycles it makes a nice little bell sound, when an alarm sound seems silly.
It crashes anytime I save a car
@Codest Legacy or Enhanced? What model car?
