I've recently noticed that the police oppressor acts really weird in the PC version. Whether I'm playing vanilla or with GotR I cannot, for the life of me, make it spawn at level 3 police notoriety even though it is supposed to, according to the notoriety_spawn.xtbl file.
Even more weird (but arguably not as detrimental), when it does spawn at level 4, it will always have 5 people in it: the pilot, the 2 gunmen on each side, as well as 2 other gunmen in the back seat. I clearly remember from when I played this game on the xbox 360, that this helicopter always had only 3 people in it, the pilot and the 2 gunmen on each side. Changing the <max_vehicle_occupants> line in notoriety_spawn.xtbl does absolutely nothing. There's always 5 cops in that stupid thing. Turning the SWAT guys into regular cops also doesn't fix the problem.
It should be noted that when this helicopter appears in a scripted sequence, like during Jailbreak, it is exactly as it should be. Although when I looked through tss01.cts I could not find any clue as to how to fix these issues.
I've also tried to modify heli_4dr_police01_veh.xtbl but I was only able to prevent the backseat guys from shooting.
In vanilla PC version: (no one can shoot so it just flies away)
In GotR: (everyone can shoot but the aiming of the 2 guys in the back is broken)
My own modification: (only removing the ability to shoot from the 2 guys in the back)
Using regular cops doesn't fix the issue (even though this chopper was always manned by regular cops on xbox 360)
The way it's supposed to be:
So yeah, I'm going to need the community's help on this one. If someone who is using the xbox 360 version with Xenia could provide his vanilla xbox notoriety_spawn.xtbl (or even just a screenshot of it) that would be really helpful.
