Activation Guide
1. Download and Install the Core
If you haven't already, be sure to install and configure the SonoranCAD Core first.
2. Activate the Submodule and all Dependencies
Follow the submodule activation guide for the required submodules.
Ensure the third-party pNotify addon is installed.
3. Configuration
In the config_wraithv2.lua
file, set isPluginEnabled
in the to true
.
Use of this submodule requires the Sonoran version of Wraith ARS 2X radar and plate reader to function. This resource is bundled with the latest SonoranCAD release as wk_wars2x
.
You also need pNotify, a third party resource that is not bundled by default.
4. Custom Record Handling
The in-game radar can alert you about expired registrations, BOLOs, warrants, and more:
5. Set Your API ID
In order to have locked plate lookup results sent back to your CAD, don't forget to set your account API ID.
Usage
For more information on using the in-game UI, please view the Sonoran version of the Wraith ARS 2X release information. Results are sent directly to your CAD when a license plate is locked.
Sonoran wk_wars2x
These features are not found in the original wk_wars2x resource, and only come packaged with our version found here.
Additional Features
Added the ability to blacklist certain vehicle classes via the config.lua, these blacklisted vehicles will show on the plate reader as the
CONFIG.noPlateValue
value (default: "NO PLATE").Added the feature
CONFIG.realisticPlateScanning
. This feature is disabled by default due to certain vehicles having incorrect metadata causing this feature to displayCONFIG.noPlateValue
falsely. Behavior when enabled: when you are traveling toward/away from a vehicle that does not have a front/back plate the plate reader will not be able to scan it and will display theCONFIG.noPlateValue
value.Added custom sounds when a BOLO, Warrant or unregistered vehicle plate is scanned.
Realistic Plate Scanning
Set CONFIG.realisticPlateScanning
to true
to enable only scanning vehicles with the ALPR when they have a plate.
Note: Some vehicles may show a plate due to missing vehicle metadata or being able to remove the plate with extras.
Custom Alert Tones
Custom tones will now play when you scan a plate that is has either a BOLO, Warrant or is unregistered. These tones can be customized by replacing the existing files in the /sonorancad/submodules/wraithv2/sfx
folder with your own. Please note the files names need to be the same as the ones you are replacing
Troubleshooting
AI Cars are Spamming the Reader
The framework ships with the wk_wars2x
plate reader included. This will have the config.use_sonorancad
set to true
. When enabled, the plate reader will not run a lookup on any AI vehicle.
Vehicles Aren't Being Flagged
Status
Keep in mind that AI vehicles won't display or be ran unless there's a vehicle registration record added to the CAD with that plate.
Ensure that you've correctly followed step 5 and the statusUid
and expirationUid
fields have been set correctly, both in the CAD record template and the submodule config.
Ensure that the flagOnStatuses
array has the exact string/text values that match the options in your custom record template.
BOLO and Warrant
Ensure that your custom BOLO and Warrant records have a field with the type
set to status
. Otherwise, there's no way to determine if the BOLO/Warrant is active, closed, etc. The plate reader will warn of any active BOLO or Warrant records with the vehicle plate attached and the status
type field set to active/open.
Error: attempt to index a nil value (local 'vehicle')
Some servers will see this error in their server console:
To fix this, navigate to your [sonorancad]/wk_wars2x
folder, and rename config.dist.lua
to just config.lua
The config not being renamed is the most common cause of this error, however, if for some reason that doesn't fix it, feel free to open a support ticket with us.
