Basic Information
Hello and welcome to Las Venturas Cops And Robbers. Here you will learn the basics of the server, and take a general idea of it. We'll start with basic questions that most people will have in their minds when they first join the server.
Q&A of LV CnR.
♦ You probably have questions regarding this server, let's try answering most of them.
1- What are we supposed to do here?
This is Cops and Robbers. So you obviously have 2 choices: either be a robber and attempt to rob players, stores, or do your job, or you can be a cop and try to stop the crime in Las Venturas.
2- What are the available commands?
To see the available commands, type in /cmds. There are a lot of commands available.
3- What are the "currencies" in LV CnR?
There are 3 currencies available:
• Money: You can earn money by robbing players, stores, do your job. Money is used to buy a lot of things in server, like houses, cars... • Experience: You can earn XP by doing the same things. You need XP to unlock classes. • Score: A not-too-important currency, but getting it is good for you.
4- If I have questions, what could I do?
Helpers and admins are always available to help you, so all you need to do is /ask them. And if not, you could use /help to give you some info.
Getting Started
♥ When you first join the server, you will be asked to choose a class. There are multiple classes available, and they are 7:
1- Civilian Class (0 XP): This is the start of the robber. From this class he can rob stores and players. A civilian can be classed depending on his Wanted Level, and can be varied by colors: Innocent (White Color, 0 stars), Low Wanted (Yellow Color, 1-3 stars), Wanted (Orange Color, 4-6 stars) and High/Most Wanted (Red Color, 7+ stars). Wanted level is received by killing a player/cop (6 stars), entering a cop car (3 stars), robbing/raping players (6 stars), robbing stores (6 stars). A civilian can do the following:
• Rob Stores/Banks/Casinos: Stores are all over the place in Las Venturas, all you have to do is enter a store, approach the robbery point, and press ALT or typing /robstore. A robbery needs 15 seconds to be done, and can be canceled at any time by pressing C. You can also rob with another player, see this guide to know how. • Rob Players: You can rob players by approaching them and use the /rob command. Some players are protected from robbery or can't be afforded to be robbed. • Do his job: Doing your job can earn you some money/xp. We'll get to them later. • Do Side-Missions: There are a lot of side-missions to do, like trucking. You can do trucking missions by going to Trucking Zone (/gps for location), entering a truck and pressing 2 or typing /trucking. A mission can be canceled by using /canceltrucking. • Rape players: You can rape players by using /rape command while close to them. They can be protected from that as well.
2- Medic Class (0 XP): This is the "neutral" side. Medics can either help cops or robbers by healing and curing them. Wanted level is applied on medics as well. A medic can do the following:
• Heal players: You can heal players by using the /heal command. Players must /acceptheal offered by the medic. • Cure players: You can cure players by using the /cure command. Players must /acceptcure offered by the medic.
3- Cop Class (0 XP): The other side. From this class you can arrest criminals to earn money/XP. A cop can do the following:
• Arrest criminals: You can arrest criminals using the /ar [ID] command or Middle Mouse Button or Numpad 6 (In vehicles). You earn Money/XP based on the wanted level of the criminal. • Ticket criminals: Low wanted level criminals can't be arrested, a ticket must be given to them using the /ticket command. • Kill criminals: If you feel a little violent, why not killing criminals? You also earn Money/XP based on the wanted level of the criminal. • Taze Players: You can taze player using the /taze command to stop the player for 5 seconds to kill him or arrest him.
4- Federal Bureau of Intelligence (FBI) (5,000 XP): More powerful class than the cops. They have more features, like:
