Is there any way to have the modpacks at the same time? If so, guide or any kind of help please. Thanks.

If you use a mod tool, you can edit each file specifically, and have both mods functioning.

You first have to download a mod installer tool, or an IMG Editor tool. IMG Editors are better in my option.

IMG EDITOR
I use IMGTool, but Alci's IMG Editor is easier (doesn't work for me)
Anyways,
..Now, every mod (skins, vehicles, weapons etc) that has a txd and dff file can be added to your 'custom.img' file and the mod should work.
Lets use the PD and SASF modpack for example...
~~~
  • Download the SASF modpack and the LSPD modpack (manual install)
  • Create a new folder on your desktop(doesn't matter where) and open up the PD and SASF modpack rar files.
  • Now, extract both rar files into your 'My mods' folder, but in separate folders

    ~~
    In each of the folders, you'll find txd and diff files, those are the actual mods- these txd and dff files must now be added to your custom.img file: TO DO SO;
    ~
  • Run Alci's IMG editor; click 'File' then 'Open' and direct it to your custom.img file (which is in your GTA SA folder > SAMP)

  • After loading the custom.img with Alci's IMG Editor, you should see the list of txd and dffs, which is stored in the custom.img

  • To install the mod, simply add the txd and dff files, lets say you want to install all PD's uniform skins, and SASF's vehicles;
  • Click 'actions' and click 'Import' and direct it to your 'My mods' folder, and select all of the TXDs and DFFs
    (the uniforms & vehicles - highlight them all and click open and boom, they're added - just add all the mods you want (txd and dff)

  • ALMOST DONE
  • Click file then 'save' - then click 'actions' then 'rebulid' - and you're done.
Notes:
~~If you're joining game and your game freezes and you're forced to end the process, i suggest you use IMGTool to rebuild archive. - Just open IMGTool , click file > open and open the custom.img - then click 'commands > rebuild archive" and start game again. -- People use Alci normal and don't have this problem, but i do; this solves it.
~~You can only use "one" mod - i mean, only put txd and dffs together- example (army.txd and army.dff)
~~If you're having problem with the skin model names and what they look like, go to this (http://wiki.sa-mp.com/wiki/Skins:All) - for example; one of the PD uniform mod is called "lapd1" - go to that link and search "lapd1" and it'll show you the skin ID and how it looks.

P.S. You can rebuild the archive in Alci's too - Actions -> Rebuild.
