If this is your first time playing on AltisLife, or if this is your first time playing on a role-playing server I suggest you read this full Newbie guide to get you started!
So what is AltisLife?... It is a serious role-play community, if you are looking for a shoot on site war server this is not the right place for you, why not try out our King of the Hill server? So in AltisLife there are 5 main factions. Police, Civilians, Medics, Bounty-Hunters, and rebels. (For more information on these look bellow at the factions section.) 
 
When you first log in to our fine server you will be presented with a spawn-in screen asking you to select the City you wish to spawn in. Once connected fully you will receive £100,000 to get you started!

Before joining our AltisLife servers all players are advised to read the server rules. This can be done by clicking the link Here.

Reading the server rules means you wont get in trouble for doing something you shouldn't of done which could result in a ban from our community (If it's serious enough), which you don't want!

On AltisLife, licences play a huge part of your experience. Licences allow you to buy/ sell things from the NPC citizens around Altis. Most of the NPC's require that you have a licence to use their services.

Here are a list of the licences currently on our server, where you can get them and what they are!

  • Licenses will be coming very shortly, working on other stuff!

Altis Police Constabulary

The Altis Police are very hard-working individuals dedicated to keeping the streets safe and upholding the law. In order to join the whitelisted police force slots you must fill out the Police Application Here. Please note, the Altis Police Constabulary is not for the feint hearted, it will require a lot of patience and self discipline to do the job right. Do not join the Police if you cannot put in the hours or get annoyed very easily, this job is not as easy as it looks.

Civilians

Civilians are honest hard-working citizens. They mind their own business and work for their money to bring back to their families. They may buy/ sell different materials e.g. Diamond, Salt, Iron etc, or complete delivery missions. When you first join our community this is what you are by default.

Medics

The NHS will attend if you have been injured and may even stop you for medical screening at there checkpoints sometimes. The NHS is clearly full of people who have watched too much casualty or holby city with a twist of an obession with sexually transmitted infection checkups.... keeping Altis safe and healthy I guess! If you want to apply to be a Medic for the NHS click Here!

Bounty-Hunters

The role of a bounty hunter is to tackle crime, kind of like a cop! Bounty hunters have access to a bounty list which shows everyone that has committed a crime. Bounty hunters are able to receive a pay-off on the last location of a suspect  from the Neighbourhood Watch Comity.

Rebels

The rebel force will cause as much Havoc on the streets of Altis as possible. They do not care about the law and think they run the streets! Rebels usually don't make a living the way Civilians do, they usually result in using a little less-legal way of making money, but this comes with a benefit as they usually make more money.

If you see something I may of missed please feel free to post them bellow and I will see about getting them added.

Thanks.

That, my friend, is a sliced of fried gold. If only this were available in game as soon as a player joined in as some sort of interaction *turns to ciaran and raises eyebrow*

Seriously though amazing work.

 
Nice Robert, want to help you a lil, Windows key can also be used to: Gather drugs (or other items not required using a pickaxe for like peaches), getting a vehicle menu.

Civ controls, and if you have zipties bought from your local market you can use Shift-R to restrain someone and use windows key to get a playermenu up (same with cops just a little extended with more features like search and checking licenses)

 
Ow dayum, the double post seem to post but not because it waits just doesnt update the site, but the second time it does... strange and interesting..
