Check the mugshot log
See every mugshot officers have taken in game with /mugshot, who took it, which civilian it went on, and whether it was added to an arrest.
When an officer takes a mugshot in game, it replaces that civilian's photo and can be added to their arrest. Because a mugshot changes someone else's character, every one is kept in the mugshot log, so staff can see who took it, of whom, and where it went.
This article covers reading the log in the control panel. For taking mugshots in game, see Photos, headshots and mugshots.
Before you start#
You need a role with See the mugshot log: every /mugshot taken in game, who took it and who it went on, or Set up the CAD: call types, statuses, penal code, designs and AOP.
Open the log#
- Open your control panel.
- Click Mugshots under CAD in the sidebar.
Mugshots are shown as cards, newest first, 48 to a page.
What each card shows#
| On the card | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| The photo | Click it to open it full size in a new tab |
| Name | The civilian the mugshot was saved to |
| Date, time and callsign | When it was saved and the callsign of the officer who took it, with their account name in brackets |
| Taken of someone else | A warning when the player in front of the camera doesn't own that civilian |
| Added to their arrest | The mugshot also went on the civilian's arrest |
| Civilian photo only | It only replaced the civilian's photo |
| Server name | Which of your game servers it was taken on |
When a mugshot goes on an arrest#
A mugshot is added to an arrest when the civilian has an arrest written in the 6 hours before it was saved that doesn't have a booking photo yet. Otherwise it only replaces their photo.
The "taken of" warning#
When an officer takes a mugshot, the officer picks which civilian it's for. The card warns you, in amber, if the player standing in front of the camera doesn't own the civilian the officer picked, for example "Taken of Jordan, who doesn't own this civilian". That might be a mistake, or an officer saving a photo to the wrong character, so it's worth a look.
Search the log#
- Type in the search box. You can search by the civilian's first name, their last name, or the officer's callsign.
- Click Search.
- Click Clear to see everything again.
Search for a first name or a last name on its own. Typing a full name, like "John Smith", won't find anything.
What's not in the log#
- Mugshots an officer threw away without picking a civilian.
- Mugshots nobody picked a civilian for. These are deleted after a day.
The log is read-only. To change a civilian's photo after a mugshot, the civilian's owner can upload a new one, or an officer can take a new mugshot.
Something not working?#
I can't see Mugshots in the sidebar. Your role needs one of the permissions above.
The log is empty. Nobody has taken a mugshot yet. You'll see "No mugshots yet. Officers on duty take them with /mugshot in game." Officers need the LonexOne FiveM resource on your server and Photo uploads switched on under Records in the CAD settings.
A search found nothing. Try just the first name or just the last name, or the officer's callsign. Full names don't match.
The civilian's name says "Deleted civilian". The civilian was deleted after the mugshot was taken. The mugshot stays in the log, but it can no longer be found by the civilian's name.
