I use Gimp....ev1 has their own personal preference I guess.....gimp is free as well

I would like to know when the links are fixed for the maps as I would like to see them myself.

Yes we are using SKetchup

I did search for it on this forum and found nothing. That is why I posted this so I could get someone to guide me in the right direction or to help me out.

I did search for importing building but nothing comes up when I search it on this forum that is why I posted this question to have someone guide me or help me out.

What size to you have to make a map? Do you need a specific art program to do it or is there other programs I can use? If that is not possible could someone please tell me how to edit an existing freeplay map?

I have built a couple new buildings and I would like to add them into a mod for private use. What program(s) should I use or how do I import them into the mod????

I was wondering if someone could tell me what software programs do I need to have to make maps, build 3D buildings?

Sent you a PM

I like how they look. Is there a way that the dirt and stuff can be removed so it looks crisp (like a new car) or no??? I am just wondering. Other than that they look great and you do a good job :-)

Ash, Here are the pics of what I am referring to and the Helicoptor pic is something I was wondering if you could reskin the helicoptor in the game to look like the pic below. Also on the police car you will see our symbol on the door if able to try to use that symbol as well. If not let me know. The vehicles that they use here are regular crown vic's. If you have any questions please let me know. EAGLE 3 License Plate we have on our police vehicles

I would like some help making some things. What I am looking for is as follows: Swat Team consisting of 5 patrol cars 4 having lights on them and 1 flat top which is the LT. Could you put a command in the LT's car to be able to call a team if he needs one? The reason why I say this is because of the city I live in we do not have a Swat Truck they just use patrol cars for all incidents. I would like them to be a standard Crown Vic black and white. Each car is a little different equipment wise. One car is a Sniper Team, another has the entry shields, one is the LT which is also the negoiator, the other 2 units are regular swat team members. But when you purchase them can I have it where they all come out at once or no? If not, I could purchase them all individually as long as I know that they are the Swat Team. If you have any questions you can PM me, reply here or if you need my regular email let me know.

I copied the e4mod.info folder from the LA Mod to my mod named Wisconsin Test Mod. I also copied the Lang, models, prototypes, specs and units to my mod folder as well as the subfolders. So how can I test my vehicle in gameplay or is that just in editor? If only in editor then how do I test lights and sirens so I can hear them?

Ty for your help. No I did not modify the sirens. I will go and edit the script and add my new car. Here is another question for you or anyone else. In the process of figuring out what was wrong with the siren I must have edited it or change a part of the game script because when I went to start the LA Mod game it would go to black screen and then back to my desktop and would not load. So I ended up saving my car and scripts into a different folder and uninstall and reinstall the LA Mod and now that I have down that I have created my own mod. Instead of using the LA Mod as the test area for vehicles what would you suggest I do for testing vehicles in the game to ensure all lights, sirens, doors, wheels, etc. work?

When I finished modding my car that I have been working on and put it in the game to use in my game I lost my sirens. Could someone please explain to me what I did wrong or what I need to do to get it back. The vehicle I modded was a Dodge Charger, that is posted below.

I would like to thank you for your help regarding cloning as this is the finished car that I did. Now I just need to learn how to put this finished car into the game. If you or anyone else could help me with that step by step that would be greatly appreciated.

When it comes to renaming doors/wheels how would I remain it as I chose a vehicle and named it Tahoe_W.v3o. The current name for the door file is Tahoe_door02.v3o. Would I rename it Tahoe_door02_W.v3o or would it be Tahoe_W_door02.v3o? I would like to make sure I am doing everything right. Also when I cloned the vehicle it is solid white (everything including the grill). Is it supposed to turn out that way or am I doing something wrong?

I cloned the Dodge Charger, changed the .dds file name to wis_charger01.dds painted it and when I put it back into my own mod that I am working on the paint colors are all scrambled or "ghost" white. What am I doing wrong? Please help!! DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO CLONE? IF SO COULD YOU PLEASE HELP ME FROM START TO FINISH? I WOULD PREFER INFO ON CLONING EVERYTHING BUT MAINLY VEHICLES RIGHT NOW. I WOULD LIKE TO ALSO SAY THAT THE PERSON THAT MADE LA MODE YOU DID AN AWESOME JOB. I hope someone can help me out on this as I just taught myself how to mod and I would like to be able to do more.

What am I doing wrong? Please help!! What I am looking for really is for someone to tell me how to clone a vehicle or anything in a mod from start to finish. I have tried to research it in many areas but can not find anything. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!

Ok I am new here and I am looking for some help. For some reason I have no clue how to convert anything to V30 or to dds (I think that is what it is) as I am lost when it comes to that for reskinning to make things look like my city and state. If anyone could help me out that would be great and I would greatly appreciate it alot. ~~~~~~ I would just like to say that after 7 hours I finally figured it out, did my first vehicle for my state and it looks great......All I am going to say is patients.....seriously alot of patients and trial and error.~~~~~ Will post pic of it later if anyone is interested and if anyone needs help I can help you out. I do wanna say this......GIMP works great for reskinning
