A Request and a Few Suggestion vehicles.

Recommended Posts

I have a single request and several suggested vehicles I think would like to see made. I want to add it as a secondary Fire Battalion chief vehicle.

The rest are simply thrown out here as vehicles I would like to see and possibly others may like to see added.

ATF - A SWAT/Bomb squad combo.

Search and Rescue PD - Secondary S&R PD vehicle like the Hummer.

Replacement for the SUV or in addition to.

Some one here stated the station a LA world Wide Airport Police unit at the Airport in free play, as well as an LAX Crash Tender, 2 LA Port Police near the port Area and I took this a step further by putting a CHP Crown Vic at 2 of the highway interchanges(on w00d's map of course), and since fires get out of control so easy at the camp ground at the north east corner of the map since response times suck to this area, I keep a US Forest Fire Engine stationed there. However there are alot of crimes in this area some of the time. So I figuered why no take the above aproach a step further and provide a Park Ranger, Conservation Officer or something along that line.

The following are not LA Parg Ranger Vehichles, but could be used anyways.

They mostly stick to SUVs it seems but I did find a few Crown Vi and even Impala Units. In my area game wardens typically drive a black or dark green Chevy Tahoe so it might be easiest to simply modify the fire or ems supervisor suv to a green or black paint job and a police(red and blue) light bar rather then a fire/medical(red) lightbar.

Thanks for reading my suggestions. :)

that one is possible for yourself to make, just reskin one of the crown vics.

that one has already been made, but in a mod that is not yet released, see it here: http://forum.emergency-planet.com/index.ph...amp;#entry27836

the mod is about Los Angeles and LAPD mainly, not LA County, and if you want it you could just copy the current SUV and reskin the copy.

reskin the current vehicles by using the tutorials available in the tutorial section :)

and one last thing, Hoppah does not want suggestions for his mod, there are several suggestion threads but they have been closed as people did not look through them and kept suggesting the same things that Hoppah had already said no to.

Far easier said then done. I suck in photoshop but plan on attempting it.

http://forum.emergency-planet.com/index.ph...1534&st=420

Its guessed to be dead.

what does it add to the mod?

Just something to replace the current SUV or the Hummer.From the pics I have seen its not uncommon for them have more then one type of SUV in there fleet so it adds realisim actually.

the mod is about Los Angeles and LAPD mainly, not LA County, and if you want it you could just copy the current SUV and reskin the copy.

reskin the current SUV if you want it

reskin the current vehicles by using the tutorials available in the tutorial section :)

I notice a trend here...some people simply dont have the skill to do so.

Well there suggested vehicles people may want to see more so then actual suggestions for the mod.

BTW LA is in LA County I would imagine. Not to mention Sheriff are county units mostly, and there is a whole fleet of vehicles. The HES is a LA County vehicle. Forest Fire units are probably under the county jurisdiction, not the city, but I believe they may even be federal. Plus the load screen has the LA County and LA City logos. Thats alot of County references to be that focused on city rather then county and city. Nor do I see how this is mainly about LAPD when there are so many Medical and Fire units avaliable. Plus these arent nescescarily for LA Mod, although I personally plan to use them in the LA Mod.

If some one could just do a reskin of the EMS crown vic like this:

I would really apreciate it as this is a bit complicated due to the rims and the gradient stripe on the middle. Then I can change the lightbars out myself.

I would likfe to know why you want to use a fire car from another city in the LA mod, and forthe re skinning, it should'nt be that hard at all, one could even do it with paint and the DDS unlcoker. And if you have paint.net or photoshop or anything along those lines, you can even use the gradient tool.

And in regards to the LAPD and LA comment, I think what he was saying is that LAPD is the focused police department as we see many LAPD units, then 2 or 3 LASD and a couple FBI and Army.

But back to the Reskin, there are many FREE photo editors, such as GIMP, which I believe is free, and has a gradient tool, so you could really do it yourself, I'll do you one better, I 'll even give you the link to thier site :

http://www.gimp.org/

and here is a link to the downloads page

http://www.gimp.org/downloads/

Hope this will help you with your tasks, but don't forget, you cannot touch anything until it ha sbeen unlocked

For one how many crown vic units do you see that look that good? :P Secondly, for a touch of home. This is a unit used by one of the county fire stations here. Besides maybe in the future I will reskin the units to match units here, for personal use of course.

and forthe re skinning, it should'nt be that hard at all, one could even do it with paint and the DDS unlcoker. And if you have paint.net or photoshop or anything along those lines, you can even use the gradient tool.

I know how to use the gradient tool in photoshp to an extent, its just a matter of keeping it proportionate(to an extent) and working around the wheel wells would be a pain.

And in regards to the LAPD and LA comment, I think what he was saying is that LAPD is the focused police department as we see many LAPD units, then 2 or 3 LASD and a couple FBI and Army.

Well if realisim is a factor then you have an LAPD SUV for city calls and a LA County SUV for responing to calls in the outer areas of the map. Now maybe LA is a bit diffrent but thats typically how it work here. The county sheriefs have power in the city(since it is in the county) but typically only run back up calls when there in the city. Sometimes they will also drive by routine traffic stops if there in the area just in case back up is requested. Other wise they mainly respond to call out side of the city limits. Same with State Patrol here. They dont do much in the city. There mainly only found on highways and interstates here. Of course in Cali they refer to State Troopers as Highway Patrol but there function is esentially the same as far as I know.

But back to the Reskin, there are many FREE photo editors, such as GIMP, which I believe is free, and has a gradient tool, so you could really do it yourself, I'll do you one better, I 'll even give you the link to thier site :

I use photshop 7 but I am just not very tallented in photoshop unlike other here. Where as a crap reskin job done by me would take several hours, some one with real photoshop tallent could get it done in like an hour proabably. Give or take a bit.

I am cruious as to how well the rims would actually duplicate into the game? Will i really be able to see any details of them you think? Are the lower profile tires going to be a problem?

To be as authentic as possible wouldnt it require editing the model to match the rims and tires? The msot important thing is the pait job but the rims and tires would be nice to..

about my post further up: it might have sounded a bit harsh but my point was that there is a lot of people that asks other people to create stuff for them without bother to try themselves to mod vehicles so i was just trying to tell you that you could do it yourself :)

about the la city VS la county vehicles, i know that there is already la county vehicles in the mod but my point is that the mod is in my view intended to be more city than county and thus you should not put more county vehicles in than absolutely necessary and the white medic suv is not really necessary as there is already a la city vehicle that does the same :)

It did seem a bit harsh which is why I sort of fired back. Its all good though. No hard feelings.

I think thats kind of a harsh view point because imo if thats the case theres no need for USFS vehicles/USFS Firefighters, CHP vehicles/officers, and alot of other units in the game. CHP is actually state, so there technically 2 levels above city if you get what i mean since the tier goes city->county>state>federal. The HES and Rescue Crane are both county units if memorey serves me right. This isnt a bash on Hoopah and others work its just the logic seems rather flawed seeing how much work Hoopah and others made to put so many county vehichles in the game.

To each there own, dont get me wrong on that ;)

thats all fair, i have no clue about how the US emergency services are organised and when i made the post i mainly thought about the fire engines you normally use, to be honest i did not think on the usfs, fire plane, military, CHP or much other than just the basic fire engines and basic ambulances :)
