Hoppah had a LAPD Prision Bus in the EM3 version of the LA mod. Maybe he will being it back for 1.6

If you mean stoping or redirecting vehicles, than yes, you can do that. To stop vehicles, put a police officer in the middle of a lane on the road and click on the command "Stop vehicles". Do the same to redirect vehicles except use the command "Redirect vehicles". To redirect vehicles, stop a vehicle with directional lights in the middle of a lane of road, and the clik on the directionl light command. must say this feature is greatly helpful because it makes it so you need one less officer to control traffic. @ Stan - when I attempted to download the mod, during the last few minutes, at about 98% of the way, I go an error message about the server resseting. I don't know if that's a problem or just somthing routine, but I just thought I'd let you know.

Hey Hoppah, sorry for posting this here but it isn't really a glitch. In La Mod 1.4, both the National Guard Humvee and National Guard Truck are called National Guard Humvee. That can easily be fixed(and you probably have already).

The water tender is the foam tender. It sprays water now because when Hoppah made it he hadn't found a way to animate the foam yet. Hey Mike, all the tillers on Mav1701's link look like they are ALFs rather than KMEs. Which way is the LAFD going with their tillers? A little off topic, I heard that E-One was making a Tower Ladder that was articulated somewhere , so it could bend again. Anyone else here that?

Kinda. A quint is a truck that carries the tools to do the job of both a ladder and engine company(hence they look like a ladder truck).But they do not work very well because it's like having 5 guys for a job that needs ten. The problem with the tillers is the trailer part because you cannot spawn a vehicle with a trailer and also trailers can't have physics.

hydraulic platforms are really more of a european apperatus. As far as I know only the manufacture E-One makes a hydraulic platform and I have never come across one in service in real life or on the internet. One thing that we have here in the states that is close to a hydraulic platform is a telesquirt(see pic below)

great models hoppah

besides having them as another unit, what do you need them for if you already are able to have unlimated number of the current engines

Hoppah, you should number your squad 51, just like the tv show

why don't you test it first, and let Hoppah know if it works. Second you cant send units to the map with a trailer attached so the trailer would have to already be on the map, and that would take up alot of room.

very nice helmets Hoppah

According to the press releases, it's only going to be for Wii because of the Wii control setup.

Hoppah already said he isn't going to do that because it's too much work. All you guys gotta remember, He is doing this for free. so if you want a second fire station in freeplay, use your own time to create it and if you do it well enough, maybe Hoppah will look at it for evaluation and see if he wants to add it into his mod. @ Mike: I remember that you said that a squad refers to any type of fire apperatus without a pump. Is that how it is out in LA? Because I know that here in the New York Metro area, many squads respond with pumpers, and the FDNY's squads(combination engine company, truck company, and HazMat first responders) respond with a Rescue Pumper as their first out piece of apperatus, and there other piece, a step van(with Hazmat equipment) usually only reponds if it's a Hazmat type call, or there is a danger of Hazardus Materials being present, ex: crash of an industrial tanker truck. Just wondering Firefighter111

I think I read that adding the federal unit mod togeather with the LA mod will be possible. I assume they will be released but seeing as Voodo and Hoppah are such amazing modders I suspect they will have somthing in the works, even if they just write a tutorial on how to put the two mods togeather

Depends where you live based on who responds. With volunteer agencies, they'd only respond an ambulance and the local pd to any emergencies that need an ambulance other than MVA's and Structure fires.

or better yet why don't you just sound the alarm, pull out all the ambulances, have them return to the fire station unload their crew, and staff them with two medics. and any incoming ambulances you can just have arrive with two medics

must say I agree with Woltep, that a change of the script so that it worked with the mp5 would be awsome

realy nice Hoppah. Looks great

Hey Hoppah, two things 1. I think the shot gun would be a good thing to give to the regular pd officers, because I know that In some places, they do carry shotguns in the patrol cars, in case they respond to a call where they need more firepower. I don't know if they do this in LA so you should probably ask Mike if they do carry them in LA before you put it in the mod if you do. 2. Is there any chance in seeing the bullet proof vests from EM3 return like the traffic vests? I used them alot. It would also be nice to see them on all officers rather than just the sherrifs officers.

That's one vehicle that would really have no ingame use.

Hey Hoppah, just thought I'd bring this to your attention. I know Mike said the LAFD uses tillers and I know you have said that you can't make a tiller cause you cant make trailers with physics. I thought that a mid mount tiller would be a little more realistic because it would look like a tiller. The thing is you would have to make a completely new model to make a mid mount ladder and that's alot of work for you, but like I said, I thought I'd just bring it to your attention pierce mid mount ladder

Hey Hoppah, if you're gonna change around the fire units, then you might want to consider putting outriggers on the ladder truck(like on the crane). It would make the mod more realistic

Hey Hoppah, could you possibly add the call ambulance command to the ems car. It would be realistic. If you want just tell me how to add the command and I'll do it and send you the files.

I can do skining and a little scripting so I'll help, but lets hope that you get more help than I did

what would be the point, you don't need it in any missions, and in freeplay there are hydrants everywhere. Unless you talking about an LAFD tiller (which they refer to as quints, I don't know why.), then that would be somthing to look into because woltep has seemingly created a trailer with physics.
