Read back on the previous pages. I already announced what is on the map. You can also re-read all the discussions that led those decisions being made. I understand you have questions, but please, re-read the previous postings so I don't spend time answering something I've already said.

No, Chester Hospital is gone. The EMS agency in the county is known as Beaverhead EMS and has four ambulances for the whole county. There is no county FD anymore. I won't go into too much detail because there were discussions on the agencies in previous threads. For MCI, there is an autoHeal script Ive created so the EMS supervisor can manage many patients at once.

I'd like to share some techniques for texturing. I am giving this advice with beginners in mind. Lettering plays a big part in the presentation of your mod. Having a solid black/white Arial font will make your skins look cheap. Try playing with borders, colors, goldleaf, even curving and circle text. Having presentable lettering will push your truck's look from forgettable to believable. Some examples I was able to come up with.

Only 1 in the hospital. The whole county only has 4 ambulances and it wouldn't be right giving half the fleet to one town.

Individual units can be called by these dispatchers instead of relying on the chiefs, which were quite annoying. It also doesn't crash anymore. That bug is one of the reasons we discourage playing the old mod.

The delay feature has been implemented for quite some time now. It only works on the dispatcher commands but not the vanilla units menu, which is why I had to delete that.

There will be no sheriff station. The department only has one, and it is in Dillon, 60 miles away from Monida. The little spot at town hall is enough for us. Same with MHP. As the mod is right now, the sheriff units park and respond with no problems whatsoever. I have not had the time to work on scripts or gameplay, I am working on/off on the less considered vehicles such as the 2 helicopters, a rescue boat and the remaining volunteer POV's for the mod.

I think we're staying with under 20 unique units. The area depicted in the mod is rural and has limited firefighting resources. For your mods in the large cities of Brazil, I would expect upwards of 50 for the fire department alone, for example.

Yes. The last update was last Thursday. I'm curious, what made you think the mod isn't being worked on? Model by EmC-Unit. Big thanks to him for allowing use of this model. This is going to be the MHP helicopter, however this is not the final model, it will have to be edited into the OH-58A first.

Boat and SWAT trailers, WIP

That's an axis bug. I had it when I modified my trailers for the LA mod. Its trial and error unfortunately. It seems to be variable depending on the length of the tiller cabin and trailer. Here is the axis setup on both my tiller and tiller cabin. These are 2 different screenshots scaled together, for context. The tiller rear is positioned right over the connector, while the cabin is pulled a bit forward. It should not be centered or else you get the tiller seizure problem.

Do you mean the top bar with the modifications button on it?

Should I merge this account with the old one, and you use the old one? Or merge the old account into the new one and this one will be the final one you settle with?

Nice work on my 2020 Explorer.

What other export options does MAX have? Another option is to import the file into Blender (as 3ds) and export it as obj into Zmod. Import the obj to Zmod and export as v3o. If you dont wanna deal with Zmod (I dont blame you), you can use the Blender v3o exporter from the download center. It works fine with most models, however, every single polygon and edge in the model will be split, leading to a jagged or rough surface. I have a fix for this though, that I will explain if you chose to take this route.

What is the model supposed to look like? Is it made in MAX or Blender or?

https://www.emergency-forum.de/filebase/index.php?entry/2166-ausrichtungsscript/ To make things easier on everyone, here is the publicly released parking script found in the German forums. You don't need to copy the scripts from London, Northview or any other mod.

The Lima VFD chief car has been textured. Next up is the SWR pickup.

I won't be doing 90s civilian cars. It would take too much time as there are too many. It would be more worthwhile for me to do a modern civilian mod to update all of the previous decade's civilian cars.

Base model by bama1234, edited into Suburbans by me. These will have a role in Montana mod as POV's or a chief car of some kind.

MikeyPI's version is a lot better to my eyes. It has more accurate shaping on the body, and shares many parts with the old F series models he did, just like the real trucks. My hope is that pickup truck versions are made out of this new Excursion, so that we have a consistent look across the F series line.
