I don’t know if this is happening to anyone else, but I can see the camera/mic, but no one else can see the object… Only I can see it…

lol… Now i’m embarrassed.

i don’t believe there’s an issue with sync correct me if i’m wrong

The Weazel News part of it flashes for me is there a way to fix that?

If you want to remove the Overlay delete these on client.lua

local scaleform = RequestScaleformMovie(“security_camera”)
local scaleform2 = RequestScaleformMovie(“breaking_news”)
on line 89 and 90

and
while not HasScaleformMovieLoaded(scaleform) do
Citizen.Wait(10)
end
while not HasScaleformMovieLoaded(scaleform2) do
Citizen.Wait(10)
end
on lines 93-98

Wish there was a way to have text go across the camera…

it is indeed possible i was thinking of just having breaking news at the bottom
