What changed in the city, newest first, taken from the game's own patch notes. The full history lives on the UCP patch notes page.
2.179.0: Changes from 27 October (automatic)
27 October 2026. Open this entry
New: PlexaRP loading screen: Plexa palette, Orbit p logo, PlexaRP and PlexaRP Balkan names, status and wiki on plexarp.com
New: PlexaRP name in every player-facing string (English, Bosnian, Arabic), emails, Discord cards, two-step label and links on plexarp.com
New: Plexa look for the game UI: violet and graphite theme, rounder corners, the Orbit p logo on the intro, sign-in, pause menu, player list and radial
2.178.0: Changes from 26 October (automatic)
26 October 2026. Open this entry
Fixed: Resync weapons when a reload returns a player to the world, so match guns do not stay on the ped
New: Guided new-player tour with experience quiz, lesson cards and a roleplay coach; /assist requests for Gamemasters and admins; helpers renamed to Gamemasters
Fixed: Let the owner's client take control of their pet so it follows and obeys (bug #1197)
Fixed: Let drivers see and take their backhaul at the stop it loads from (bug #1198)
Fixed: Make snow handling slide, pull away and stop like real snow
New: Handheld ID cards and passports, document registry, UV light. ID cards, licences and passports open as documents you can drag, tilt and zoom. Genuine documents carry a hologram strip, kinegram, colour-shifting number, ghost portrait and UV print; forgeries get a flat sticker and a counterfeit glow. Passports open like a book with a data page, visas and travel stamps from flights to and from Coral Island. New engraved state seals for San Andreas and Coral Island, a script wordmark header and fine-line band print. The UV lamp needs a UV light, sold at electronics stores and 24/7s. MDC gains a Documents tab: search any passport or ID number, flag numbers that were never issued and open the full registry record.
Fixed: Stop UCP logins linking every player into one LSX account group. login_history rows from UCP sign-ins carry the literal 'UCP' as hwid, serial and Social Club name, so the exchange matched 192 players on it and merged 25 account holders into one group over the $25k launch cap, refusing every deposit. lsx_login_view now nulls blank and placeholder identifiers; a new migration recreates the view.
New: Studio item icons for all 1,424 catalogue items. Hand-built SVG icons replace the flat clipart. render.mjs now renders every family with a studio design through tools/item-icons/studio and re-renders when a design changes. Lumber, tablet and weapon_stungun join the catalogue. Fixes the hammer, hatchet, pistol and SMG silhouettes.
New: Tools: studio item icons batch 7 (clothing, pelts, seed packets, plants, trophies, Halloween, furniture, one-offs)
New: Tools: studio item icons batch 6 (documents, cards, tickets, money, games, minerals, gems, misc)
New: Tools: studio item icons batch 5 (phones, cameras, computers, trackers, car and fishing parts)
New: Tools: studio item icons batch 4b (hand and power tools, equipment, keys, locks, k
2.177.0: Changes from 25 October (automatic)
25 October 2026. Open this entry
New: World Editor: fine-tune positions with nudges and snap to ground, select several for bulk delete, switch and shift, recent changes feed, map of every point, and copying items between English and Balkan
New: World Editor: show nearby points in the world with aim and E to open, change history with restore, bin for deleted items, duplicate and move here, and a problem finder
New: Send player ready to the server so join syncs run; beach scene props only on level, unobstructed spots and the fire keeps its own flames
New: Character select opens with a camera sweep through the beach scene, then fades the selection in
New: Character select beach scene live by default; campfire flames sit lower on the logs
New: Beach scene: stand the character on the ground instead of half in it, and put the fire on the logs. The ped was placed with the no-offset call, which puts its centre at ground level; it now uses the same placement as the apartment stage. Every prop and the parked car now find the ground at their own spot, and the flames start where the fire logs actually landed rather than at the stage's height, which left them floating when the logs dropped off the edge of a deck.
New: Seasonal beach scene for character select, staff preview first. Character select can stage the character on the Paleto beach instead of the apartment wardrobe: Halloween (20:30, Halloween weather, bonfire, jack-o'-lanterns, pumpkins, deck chair, Bodhi with headlights on), winter (snow, Christmas tree, fire), summer (sunset, parasol, lounger, surfboard) or standard, picked from the calendar or forced per server. The character warms their hands at the fire while a shallow depth-of-field camera drifts slowly in front of them with the sea behind. The stage is a World Editor point (Character select beach stage, takes your position and heading), checked for solid ground and water before use; if it fails, character select falls back to the apartment. /charscene [season] previews it on your own character (Backspace leaves); /charscene live on|off and /charscene season <name|auto> are Management only and saved on the server. It ships switched off.
New: Menu music chip: drop the backdrop blur that FiveM renders as a black box and the leftover transform that softened the text; style it like the login step pill
New: Menu music becomes a playlist: West Coast, Neon No
2.176.0: Changes from 24 October (automatic)
24 October 2026. Open this entry
New: Payphone handset uses the corded handset model instead of the desk phone
New: Opt-in body needs (hunger, hydration, nutrition, toilets) and a sickness overhaul (contagion, exposure, incubation, synced symptoms, immunity)
New: Payphone overhaul: coin fee, directory, recent calls, anonymous tip line, handset, ring and tones
New: ONX civilian pack 3 in the dealerships and car lot (Sadler range, Bankson, Payday, Gauntlet STX, Jester) and the new ONX fire and EMS trucks wired into hoses, FD lights and patient transport
2.175.0: Changes from 23 October (automatic)
23 October 2026. Open this entry
New: /eas emergency alert: management texts every online phone from 911 and posts a red alert in chat
New: Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/main' into emergency-aftershock
New: No weapon recoil in Zombiez: the camera kick is skipped and GTA's firing shake is zeroed during a match, then restored
Fixed: Remove custom plate adding 25k value to a vehicle
2.174.0: Changes from 22 October (automatic)
22 October 2026. Open this entry
New: Coffee machines brew drinks step by step with sound, steam and a cup to collect. Buying from a Bean Machine closes the shop and runs a brew for the drink chosen: button beeps, the cup dropping, grinding, then a pour, espresso shot, milk froth, ice or chocolate mixer, and a ready chime. Nearby players hear it fading with distance and see the cup and steam; the buyer waits on a progress bar and takes the cup at the end. Payment and delivery are unchanged. Also ships the missing vending_machine.mp3 and plays it from the sounds folder through the ambient bus, so every vending machine makes a sound again.
2.173.0: Changes from 21 October (automatic)

New: Add the rules for how much cash an ATM holds
Fixed: Network protection only keeps players frozen past the first 3 minutes while the attack is actually hurting them
New: Every petty crime leaves an automatic information marker; letterboxes and post boxes stay broken 48 hours like meters, stolen parcels mark the doorstep, failed pickpockets are reported; each crime has its own witness 911 chance
New: Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/main' into emergency-aftershock
New: Smashed parking meters stay broken for 48 hours with an automatic information marker, and witnesses call 911 far more often
New: Add the drawn cursor rule to the NUI conventions in CLAUDE.m
2.172.0: Changes from 20 October (automatic)

New: Prodigy police kit: GPS dart launcher tracks fleeing cars for every unit on duty, flashbangs, smoke, spike box deploys with stingers, numbered evidence placards

Fixed: Court model stays loaded and is warmed every 10 minutes; online hearing turns are 2 hours, closings 1 hour, deliberation 30 minutes

New: Pressure washer held two-handed and aimed, job status on the activity rail, E at the van, dirt patches and sites placed through /we

2.170.0: AI courts, the LS Stock Exchange, contactless cards and player-reported fixes
18 October 2026. Open this entry
New: Courts: AI judges now hear court cases in game and online. Cases are filed, given a hearing slot and judged with tiered verdicts and sentences that staff sign off, and the MDC person record lists a person's court cases.
New: Courts: a /fines appeal goes to the court and is heard before the seven-day appeal deadline. Counsel for the State argues for the agency, witnesses give sworn testimony and lying under oath can be referred for perjury.
New: Courts: whoever brings a civil claim can withdraw it or settle it with /court withdraw and /court settle, and staff can close a claim with /courtadmin close.
New: MDC arrest reports: the report editor shows a live case strength meter and links evidence to each charge. A report missing what the court needs cannot be filed and a weak one asks you to confirm first. Court-bound reports become tasks with hearing reminders, and /courtreports lists them for officers and supervisors. The latest version of a report is the one the court reads until the hearing starts.
New: Stocks: trading has moved to the LS Stock Exchange at stocks.plexarp.com. Your shares came with you, and you can move money between your bank account and your exchange wallet. Trading through the UCP and the phone has closed.
New: Bank cards: cards can pay contactless up to a tap limit you set yourself in the finance Cards tab or the Fleeca app, with no PIN needed under the limit. The PIN pad at ATMs, the banker desk and card payments now has a real keypad layout.
New: Vehicle boots: put a restrained, downed or willing person in the boot of the car behind you with /ptrunk, or load a body with /ctrunk. /premove and /cremove take them out again, and someone in a boot that is not locked can climb out with /trunkexit.
New: NPC 911 calls: responders can close a finished call and clear away its NPCs, cars and props at once with /clearcall or Clear scene on the MDC.
New: Chat: wrap words in *one asterisk* for italics, **two** for bold or ***three*** for both, in local chat, /me, OOC, PMs and radio. /settings has radio colour pickers and a switch to turn formatting off, and /help shows how it works.
New: Nametags: nametags fade with distance, crowds are tidied so names do not stack on top of each other, badges show up close only and /ame lines stack. The fade, badges and compact crowds can be changed in /settings.
