jgreene Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Mid-mount are truly possible since it was already featured on NYMod. But I'm wondering if Hoppah could help those guys(NYMod) on adding a bit more details on their rescue units.Im pretty sure that the only thing we have seen from the NY mod is a picture of the model. Here we have in game pictures and video of a working mid mount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O'Neill Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Wow, that looks amazing. I'm guessing the range on the water cannon is the same as the regular ladder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soulbody Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 I kept this secret until I made it working, but I managed to make a tiller!It has it's flaws as explained in many topics before. The model is highly detailed. It has about 8100 polygons including the 6 wheels and all other parts belonging to the vehicle. Ingame, it works pretty well. There are a couple of points I'd like to mention:- The trailer has no physics when it's not installed and attached to the tractor.- The ladder can't reach windows. For now, you can only use it to extinguish fires.- Because of the long size, the trailer makes weird swings when it takes a turn.- The trailer logic created by Bass-ti, might be buggy on slower computersThe tiller will be a new vehicle', so it doesn't replace the tower in the Los Angeles Mod. Because of the disadvantages explained above the tiller won't spawn in the big fire station for default, but I might make it able to park on the same spot as the tower.The reason I made it is because I found a way to spawn the trailer on the tractor when it arrives on the map after being send using the menu. The cool looks makes it a great addition to the mod. The tiller will be the only new addition to v1.9 besides the new map. I hope it's worth it.Hoppaha hear a nice submod coming for me for the parking lot. nice Tiller you made. love the model. hope there v1.9 is coming soon so i can start on the submods soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoppah Posted July 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 am a able to give you a boot system but they will delete the files on your (internal) hard disk.Date: 'Jun 11 2009, 05:02'Got my new videocard like 2 weeks ago. Better talk Dutch, because I have no idea what you mean.You got a point then. It looks were having a competition between the two. Right.... competition between a mod that has been released almost 3 years ago and a mod which has just been started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefighter111 Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Hoppah, I personally think that 16tons should just hire you to develop any other game in the emergency series they make. Second, on the whole "the tiller and freeplay map will be the only new additions to 1.9" thing, I would say a whole new map and a vehicle that's been thought impossible until now is pretty good for a mod update. You are a beast Hoppah. Quick question though, what made you go with the pierce style tractor rather than the american lafrance ones which seem to be in use more in LA?

Guest Gozozh Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Hej, There I am again. It has been a long time, but now I am in the states, and I saw all this cool stuff that hoppah made, I JUST had to reply! Hoppah Congratulations, you just are unbeliveble. A few weeks ago, I saw that new truc you made, and thought about it, and I still couldn't figure out wy everybody told eachother that it wasn't possible to make such a thing... Now you proved that IT IS POSSIBLE to make things everybody sad you couldn't I can't wait till I'm back home and (probably) see V 1.9 appear on the forum. I want to play it now! :23_31_4: But anyway, regtards from the US GozozhPS. is on the new map forum, on of the screen shots, is that the staples center? Or am I just being stupid?

Hoppah Posted July 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Like I said, you will be able to park either the tower or tiller in the fire station, but the tower will still spawn in the beginning, because that one has less issues. I still need to change that though. Something killed my Vista installation (probably a virus or a small hdd crash) and I am busy reinstalling Vista for the second time within a month.

Grim_Wizard Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 That was really unexpected, I knew you could make a mid mount but I thought that the tillers were not really possible. THe guy standing on the ladder looks kinda funny though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saxguitar Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 Today a video was released of the NY mod's mid-mount. Like hoppah said theres a glitch, there is a gap between the bucket and tip of the ladder, which suposedly is going to be reseolved, but it goes to show it can be made.

Hoppah Posted July 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 I lied There will be a couple of more, but smaller changes/additions to v1.9:- Firemen will now enter vehicles after using the rapid deployment command to detach the hoses. - Deck gun can not be used at the same time as the hose connections anymore.- Fixed/Added 'arrived on scene' radio command.And:The tower will still spawn at the start of a new freeplay game, but you can send that one home and park the tiller on its spot instead. Compatible with the 'Call light force' command as well.Hoppah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
