Pottyscotty Posted August 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 In Kent do they have the BTP fire engines but they are police engines? I can link pictures if you want me to if you don't know what I meanI think there are only two of these, both in London. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Handsup! Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Yeah, they're the TFL/BTP engines. They're not actually run by BTP for their use as such; TFL use them to respond to situations such as rail obstructions and specialist emergencies in the underground, which require an urgent response, so the BTP drive them. This is opposed to fire engines, which are not specialised for the underground and would take up valuable LFB time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 What happened? Search his name up and it's his latest video. I think the point is more that nothing did happen as he didn't understand anything and what he did do was like: armed robbery, let's send retained fire crew and beat bobbies. He just needs work on the whole realism idea.The vivaro looks decent, not my favourite base model but, as you said (much) earlier, that's life.Again, it's awesome to see you are still bringing new stuff out so often!Will riot shields, new armed officers and police medics, as well as the Vauxhall all be ready for next update and will the riot script accompany them? Thanks again! Nice info hands up! Didn't know about that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TACRfan Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Isn't he from the US? Lol the uneducated swine I'm kidding, yeah I haven't seen any of his videos, but I prefer using the roleplay/realism when playing the game. I can't understand why people play it just to rush through the events.i like role playing them, thats why the kent mod has all those different positions for firecrews and hart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I thought Scotty, just wondered if it would take more work to get them in. What about the riot script, did you get it or still waiting?

Will Sturgess1999 Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 I may sound a bit of a noob but when Scotty releases a update do I delete the old Kent mod version and reinstall or is there a folder you put the update in?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pottyscotty Posted August 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 BTP Ford Focus Estate IRV ----------------- One thing I added to this vehicle (Not visible in the screenshots above but definitely in-game) is a reflective tape look to the Battenburg. Would love to hear your opinions on this so I know whether I should add it to all the other vehicles or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Sturgess1999 Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Why in Kent do they put numbers on the roof? They don't in my county? But nice focus Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pottyscotty Posted August 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Why in Kent do they put numbers on the roof? They don't in my county? But nice focusSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk"Aerial roof markings are symbols, letters or numbers on the roof of selected police vehicles, fire engines, ambulances, coast guard vehicles,cash in transit vans, buses and boats to enable aircraft and/or CCTV to identify them. These markings can be used to identify a specific vehicle, vehicle type or agency. The markings, depending on the vehicle, or information required, may also be displayed on the bonnet, boot, or other areas of the vehicle visible from the air." - Wikipedia --- Kent do not use these markings on a lot of vehicles, mainly traffic and armed response. The vehicles above with white writing and black boxes are not Kent but BTP (British Transport Police). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Looks great!About the reflection, it sounds absolutely awesome, but I would want to see it personally or in a video first as I think that could easily be a bit over the top and blind you. Could you give us a video? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffo567 Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 I got kind of angry saying like why do u need so much police! And then he sent the public order vans to HQ I was like wtf. I mean if you don't understand an amazing mod and then put it down because your an ignorant bastard then don't play the mod!All I'm saying is that Scottys mod is absaloutely spectacular and TACRfan and if u don't know how to play UK appliances then one don't make a video and two criticise it! Great job tho!That was a long rant :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffo567 Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 To accompany the rant, scotty, I was wondering, as my father and grandfather are both cat 2 driver trained police officers, is there anyway you can change the speed the veichle drives at dependant on the police officer inside say a cat 3 was normal speed, cat 2 was faster and cat one then would only be traffic units such as BMW 330d and Volvo V70 and X5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you give us a video? thanksIt's not an actual reflection but the hexagon looking texture that is part of reflective tape (Like below and in the third picture from my post) ^ The same type of material used for the markings (Battenburg, Jam Sandwich, Chevrons etc) on Police Vehicles. To accompany the rant, scotty, I was wondering, as my father and grandfather are both cat 2 driver trained police officers, is there anyway you can change the speed the veichle drives at dependant on the police officer inside say a cat 3 was normal speed, cat 2 was faster and cat one then would only be traffic units such as BMW 330d and Volvo V70 and X5 Interesting idea, I'll definitely consider this as I was hoping to add the General Purpose patrol car used by Kent Police which an Officer told me can use the blue lights as a warning at a scene or to pull over vehicles (As the drivers of these vehicles [Like the officer I was talking to] normally only have a basic driving ticket). So this would be good so you don't get these kind of vehicles speed off or have a normal patrol vehicle go faster then you would on the motorway. will the BTP units have different sirens?Some use Premier Hazard sirens as opposed to Whelen so, yes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffo567 Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 im sure you would be very interested to know about my grandfather scotty On his time as a police officer he made it to chief superintendent. And he later went on to be the supervisor in South Wales hq for the m4 motorway. He was given an unmarked jaguar! I was amazed !But yeah I would love to see the bmw being driven by cat one drivers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For their Officer Vehicles/Response Cars the Station Managers used to get a certain amount of money to buy a car and get it fitted out with all the Emergency Lighting and siren equipment and the old station manager at my local used to buy Jags and other flashy cars and get them kitted up - Much to the amusement of the firefighters but "not a very good public image" apparently Whether it's connected or not Kent scrapped that and now just use Marked Officer vehicles haha.
