randomperson139 Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 It's a good idea. I don't think anybody has done an Egypt mod before. What can you do? You might want to make a list of the things that you need help with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szron Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 That's very brave to start a new mod. You must be sure that you know at least basics of modeling, UV mapping, etc. Then you should show us few pictures of models and then you could find helpers.

Tarek Posted December 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 It's a good idea. I don't think anybody has done an Egypt mod before. What can you do? You might want to make a list of the things that you need help with.I don't think any one has done it before no. I can model and edit pretty much a lot in the map of EM4, I'm no Bill gates but I learn by minute and I usually find things easy and don't give up I will make a list soon, help would be basically with scripts and the models.That's very brave to start a new mod. You must be sure that you know at least basics of modeling, UV mapping, etc. Then you should show us few pictures of models and then you could find helpers.Yes I do have basics of modeling and UV mapping. The problem now though is I've never used Zmodeler before and that's really my concern. I can't seem to export the file to V3O because of some kind of error (Can not find object "hms_body". file:ExportV3O.cpp line:56) Seem to be getting this error on the body, doors and wheels. Imported first as 3DS, exported from both Sketch and AutoMax, I'm trying another model now though.I like the idea!! But make sure you read this.Ah yes I read that, It's very good. What would they have to offer that's neat?Basically it'll be providing a different culture really, I mean the vehicles forces use in Egypt aren't really used anywhere around the world except from few countries. For example we have a small pickup truck with a big box at the back built in where police would get in. It's very useful to transport large numbers of policemen. Usually mods are very similliar (in vehicles) due to that close countries basically use the same vehicles and same way of tactics.Thank you all for your feed backs,Tarek-EDIT-A screenshot of the example i mensioned before, (note : vehicle not finished) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarek Posted December 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 Nice truck!! Thank you Moved to EN modding and mod helpOk Thank you, Didn't know I had to post it here The truck looks good Thank you This truck we called the box in Cairo, It usually carries up to 8 policeman at the back and a captain next the driver. My current plans for the policeman is that there will be different types of policemen for example the policemen which fits at the back isn't allowed to carry a gun or arrest people, but can redirect traffic and stop it just in real life.Thanks,Tarek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forensics Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 I can see why it's called 'the box' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Rasseru Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 I think? In that part of the world... Toyota Trucks are very common. Most the Departments might have a East and West mixture of cars. You might have Europe Truck as one thing and then Japanese as another type of truck.

Tarek Posted December 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 I can see why it's called 'the box' Hahaha yeah It is really a box I think? In that part of the world... Toyota Trucks are very common. Most the Departments might have a East and West mixture of cars. You might have Europe Truck as one thing and then Japanese as another type of truck.Well Cairo's emergency departments really have vehicles from nearly ALL the countries that make cars, from America to Japan to Europe there isn't a brand you won't find here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endurer Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 nice been to egypt a couple of times they got some emergency cars you don't see every day saw a truck that look like a truck to carry prisoners ( on the sinai peninsula) just wondering and nice car you have made Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forensics Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 When I went to Egypt all I saw was jeeps like these:If we left the hotel we had to be escorted by them. They always had big guns, I think they were called tourist police and they were because a load of tourists had been machine gunned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
