Introduction

Many users utilize Steam's browser/overlay system. The Steam browser utilizes an out-of-date version of CEF to run. Because of this, the Steam browser is known for it's infamous freezing, lagging, and general lack of support for developers.

While the Steam browser works well for basic websites, some users may experience issues with larger web apps like Sonoran CAD.

Accessing the CAD In-Game

1. Download the Desktop App

. This allows support for our , , and more!

2. Configure your Hotkey

Once you've opened the desktop app, open the settings modal to configure your show hotkey. When pressed, this will open the desktop app on-top of your game client.

3. Configure your Game Client

Depending on what game you're running, ensure it's in "Borderless Windowed" mode. This means the game is running as a window, with no top border.

In GTAV, this mode is actually just called Full Screen.

4. Auto-Hide Windows Taskbar (Optional)

Specifically with streamers, some users may want to hide the Windows taskbar that appears when the CAD is placed on top of the game.

To do so, simply right-click the taskbar > Taskbar Settings > Automatically Hide the Taskbar

5. Utilize the Hotkey

In-game, simply press your hotkey to toggle the CAD display both on and off. When the CAD is toggled off, your game will automatically regain focus!

You may need to manually clear your FiveM cache for troubleshooting steps. The guide below will walk you through the process. Sometimes updates will not automatically apply to your tablet and this process will resolve the issue.

To do this, right-click on your GTA RP application shortcut and click on the Open file location.

Now you will need to go to the GTA RP Application Data.

You will find a data folder there; click on it.

Here you must delete the cache, nui-storage, server-cache and server-cache-priv folders.

Slow lookups

Sometimes with certain server hosts, their networks tend to respond slower for a variety of reasons. In MySQL there is a process as part of each login in which a DNS lookup is run before the CAD or other database users can be allowed in.

With slow DNS server settings, this can sometimes cause lookups to take 5-20 seconds in the CAD. We are going to show you one way to resolve this in MySQL Server/MariaDB Server.

1. Open your my.ini configuration file for your MySQL server. If you are using XAMPP simply open the XAMPP Control Panel and click Config then my.ini from the line for your MySQL Module.

2. With the my.ini configuration file open, scroll down till you find the "[mysqld]" section and add the following line right under [mysqld]

skip-name-resolve

3. Save the my.ini file and then restart your MySQL server. For XAMPP simply click Stop in the XAMPP Control Panel then click Start.

Your lookups in Sonoran CAD with DBSync enabled should now be faster. If your lookup speed is still slow (ie. takes over 5 seconds) this is usually due to much greater issues either with the performance of your server or network.

Explanation: API Keys and IDs

Within Sonoran CAD, there are two different types of API Keys that you will need to use, each serving a different purpose.

Community API Key

First, there is your community API Key which allows CAD's in-game integrations to send data to the correct community.

To find your community API Key, see below.

This key will be placed in your config.json (for ) or the Server Settings panel (for ).

User API ID

In addition to the community API Key, each user will also have their own API ID, which allows CAD to associate the user's in-game player with their Sonoran account. Generally, this will either be the user's Steam Hex, Discord ID, or Game License Key.

This API ID can be found in game by doing /apiid in game, if you have the plugin installed.

Every user will need to find their own API ID and add it to CAD as shown .

Retrieving Your Credentials

Your community ID allows users to .

Your community ID and API Key can be found in the Admin panel, under Advanced > In-Game Integration. Under the Web API section, your Community ID and API key will be listed as shown:

Click either box to copy its corresponding value to your clipboard.

Other Ways of Finding your Community ID

Your community ID is also listed in the following places:

1. In the side navigation bar while logged in

2. In the Admin panel under Advanced > Limits

Authenticating your Ownership

While requesting support from an official Sonoran team member, you may be asked to authenticate your community's ownership.

1. In the admin page, navigate to Advanced > Authenticate

2. Press the "Request Code" button

Usage

🌎 Live Map

On the live map, ensure you toggle station blips on. Clicking on a station will open the alert panel.

The following example:

• Opens the Engine 19 door at station Davis

• Closes the Ambo 61 door at station Davis

• Sets the station indicator light to Blue

🚨 Station Alert Panel

Dispatchers can also access the dedicated Station Alert panel under Unit Management.

Here, you can type-to-filter and select multiple stations at once.

📞 Dispatch Call Editor

The dispatch call editor has a shortcut to quickly access nearby stations from an emergency call.

When an emergency call from in-game is imported into the dispatch editor, the Nearby Stations icon will be available. Selecting one of these nearby stations opens the station alert builder with the Message box prefilled with call information.

Character Mapping

QB Core stores player information in the players table.

The player's first and last name is stored as JSON in the charinfo column. We'll toggle these as a JSON Column and set the JSON keys to firstname and lastname.

The citizenid column stores a unique player ID. This will be our Character Mapping Column.

Multiple Residency

QB Core also allows players to own multiple residences at once.

Sonoran CAD's DB Sync will pull all of these from their external player_houses table.

Because multiple residences can be listed at once, it's recommended you update your custom record's residence field to the textarea type.

The custom record now shows the residency textarea with all owned addresses.

Vehicle Mapping

QB Core stores the vehicle information in the player_vehicles table.

The Unique ID for vehicles is stored in the citizenid column and matches the values stored in the citizenid column from our player mapping.

The plate column stores the vehicle's license plates.

You can configure other custom fields may include color, make, model, etc. Vehicle colors are often stored as a number. You can use to convert a number to a color name.

License Mapping

Because of how licenses are stored in QB Core, this process adds a couple of extra steps.

1. Open Admin panel to License Record

You will first need to edit the License record to adapt it for how QBCore stores its licenses. Open the Admin Panel by going to the following...

Admin Panel -> Customization -> Custom Records -> Click #4 - License

2. Edit License Information Section

Replace the last three fields in the License Information: section with the following. Make sure to change the type to text and remove the mask. You can use the screenshot below as a guide. Then click Save before moving on.

3. Open DBSync Settings

Click Advanced -> In-Game Integration to open the DBSync settings menu.

4. Fill in DBSync Settings

As of writing on 2/28/2022, the following pictured settings will work for QBCore's latest version. Fill in the Table Name, Character Mapping Column, Column Names, JSON Columns and Friendly Mappings as shown below. Make sure to click Save Mapping Config once finished.

Congratulations! You should now be all set up to display your licenses from QBCore in Sonoran CAD. Feel free to test a record lookup to verify everything is in order.
