How to install siren tones manually - FiveM
This video shows how to install any siren tones manually for your game, Follow the steps in the video and description carefully so you don't mess anything up.
The video is very straight forward and not hard to install the tones either.
Before going with installing any siren tones make sure you backup your RESIDENT.rpf for this in case anything goes wrong.
Step by Step:
1. Download the siren tones and have them ready.
2. Launch OpenIV, Then enable Edit Mode at the top right corner.
3. Make your way to the RESIDENT.rpf by following this location:
Grand Theft Auto V\x64\audio\sfx\RESIDENT.rpf
4. Head over to the RESIDENT.rpf and open the RESIDENT.rpf and locate the file called vehicles.awc then right click on it and choose the option 'Export to openFormats (.oac)'
5. While exporting create a folder on your desktop or anywhere else to keep this process tidy and not messy, Name it whatever you like but just export the content inside of it.
6. After exporting the .awc file open the 'vehicles' folder inside the new folder you created.
7. Then for the select tones you'd like to install copy and paste/drag and drop the tones inside the 'vehicles' folder and make sure you replace the tones in the destination once the popup comes up.
8. After replacing the tones grab the vehicles.oac file inside your newly created folder then drag and drop the vehicles.oac into OpenIV inside the RESIDENT.rpf contents
9. After replacing the old vehicles.awc by doing step 8, Open a new tab for the installation of your game with File Explorer. Then head over to this location:
Grand Theft Auto V\x64\audio\sfx\RESIDENT.rpf
10. Keep that tab open for your RESIDENT.rpf, Extract the files of ArchiveFix (Link for the download is at the bottom of the description)
and set them in a new folder on your desktop for ease of access
11. Open the ArchiveFix folder, Then in your game directory tab drag the RESIDENT.rpf alone into the ArchiveFix.exe (Quite literally easiest thing to do), If done correctly then a cmd will come up saying it has encrypted the RESIDENT.rpf and you can close that tab from there by pressing any key.
12. If step 11 is done correctly with no errors and the popup goes away then that means you have installed your tones correctly
