Guest GB619 Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 I thought i would have a go at re-skinning one of the ambulances,just to see how it turned out,i think it looks ok,im going to change many for my own personal use,and yes i know no ambulances look like this in the real world,but thought it fun to have my own ambulance service running around los angeles,this is the BLS ambulance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest blwoods0 Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Skin wise it looks fine. I find the color choices horrid however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MonkeySquasher Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 The sad part is, even with a paint scheme like that, people STILL wouldn't see you and pull over. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest GB619 Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 I am currently working on re skinning another ambulance,it willbe modeled on my local ambulance service,it only 25% done,as i have to redifine some lines on the ambulance below is the model im using,and i will repaint some of the buildings too,so it loks more like the UK,if i could model i would do some of my own,i will try and learn,but for now i will repaint the models for my own use,as i know we are allowed to do this for our own use,so thanks to the modellers on hereAnd this is how far i have got with the repaint,this is in its skin edit format,and im using photoshop as it much better to useEdit by HoppahIt's not allowed to release changed textures without my permission.Before we know, people are going to start this doing this as well and that's something I don't want.

Xplorer4x4 Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 Why not steal an ambulance out of one of the UK mods and put in in the LA Mod rather then using the American style ambulance. Its pretty simple to do. You just need to copy the e4p files from the prototypes folder of the UK mod, to the LA Mod folder. Then copy the v3o and dds files from the uk mod to the models folder of the LA Mod. Of course you would have to load the editor and tell the games where to find the v3o files, but its a pretty simple process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest GB619 Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 Ok so i have done what i can to the ambulance,the only thing im not sure how to do id change the lights,i can change the static colour,but when they flash they flash re and white as they do in the USA,so if anyone could point me in the direction of how to change the lights when they flash it would be gratefulLooks quite like the my local Ambulance,apart form the lights lolAnd working in freeplay,and yes i forgot i had my pyscho BLS ambulance in its hippy colours.....lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realize your not looking for perfect but its very easy to do. Just copy and paste a handful of files and you have a real ambulance. None the less I like the green and yellow checkered ambulance in the last post As for the light, load the editor, load the la mod. Hit F1. Select vehicles. Find the vehicle you want. Click it and you will see alot of options. One of which will say Edit Lights. This can be tricky though, but good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise nice reworkingRe-painting these models are for my own use,i am going to attempt to do some models,but dont have the time atm,ask Hoppah and co how long it takes to model,i dont have all day to sit in front of my pc,i have to work,thats why i understand we all have to wait for hoppah and co to update their mods as they have lives too,and re painting takes time too,maybe you should try it....lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
