Xplorer4x4 Posted December 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 So both stations are going to have a task force and a paramedic RA and assessment engine?Yes. Is E88 an assessment engine? Pretty much just answered that, but of course, why wouldnt it be?Don't forget that RA88 is in one of the new 2008 RAs with the darker hi-viz striping as compared to the 2007 RAs.See my post before last:I have also updated the skins of the Rescue Ambulances such as putting there unit number on the hood, and changing the color of the hi-viz(red/yellow stripping on the back) as needed.I did this ages ago.

billyfromhill Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 Pretty much just answered that, but of course, why wouldnt it be?What I'm saying is that are you sure that E88 is an assessment engine in real life? I didn't think they were an assessment engine but I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xplorer4x4 Posted December 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 Actually I think your right on that. Feel free to ask about it at emt-b. I may or may not make it a PAE. I doubt to many people actually use the PAE concept in game. In game its not really needed.Small Update: I never liked the CHP CV, so, and I credit Ale for the idea. I have put a white CHP slicktop Charger in the game using NNICOs model, and put CHP decals on myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xplorer4x4 Posted December 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 I am having trouble getting my video converter to work but i plan to show off the lights for the new chp smpv charger tomorrow. The lights were done by conroy with some slight modification by myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xplorer4x4 Posted December 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCq27Wwe1lglittle something to enjoy. New unit, new lights. Skin will probably receive an update before release for the fact there are no door outlines on the skin and the CHP logos werent as good as I would have liked.

billyfromhill Posted December 27, 2010 Report Share Posted December 27, 2010 Xplorer, I've confirmed from multiple sources that engine 88 is not an assessment engine. I'm not sure how this effects your plans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alekso1 Posted December 27, 2010 Report Share Posted December 27, 2010 I think about some thing i think it wanna be nice if the medic can go inside the hospital and i can see it..-. like in winterberg...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirMoo Posted December 27, 2010 Report Share Posted December 27, 2010 I think about some thing i think it wanna be nice if the medic can go inside the hospital and i can see it..-. This is not possible due to the fact that I don't think the hospital has an interior built. It's just a skeleton. It takes a lot of time to build buildings where you can enter them, thus is why only a few have that feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use the edit button, and no this wont be possible because of the way the mod works, as it is the medics go in the hospital with a patient and then disappear, a new prototype is spawned and gives the illusion that they dropped off the patient.

Xplorer4x4 Posted January 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 Just a small update, Reece.C and Kookas both have both started working on models. All together this mod should include 7 new models going off the top of my head. Some will be shown off here. Some will not. I will go ahead and reveal what 2 of them will be right now.LA DWP - This is the LA Department of Water and Power. This is part 1 of a 3 part phase to remove the current egineer van from the model. The perso model will likley just be carried over and use the LA DWP truck instead. LAFD Mechanic - Phase 2 is to include the LAFD mechanic who will be the only person to be able to repair fire apertures. Might reveal more in time. The mechanic truck model is around 90-95% complete. Reece is just trying to work out a few polygons atm to get it just right. That 90-95% is just the model and does not include the skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texas_DPS Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 that looks like a good idea. i like it. i had a working mechanic/engineer on my engines. i like my idea but yours better, keep up the hard work team, looking like hollywood, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swisscow41 Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 Is there any chance that you would consider adding captains and some sort of police supervisor similar to those in the SG submod to this mod? Haha I guess I just wish I could have the best of both worlds! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha I guess I just wish I could have the best of both worlds!I don't know if I will do a captin. Just seems to defeat the purpouse of the bc. As for the police supervisor, I thought about something like this, but I am unsure at this stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swatlord Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 I don't know if I will do a captin. Just seems to defeat the purpouse of the bc. My suggestion, if you are still considering the captain, would be to give them limited commands. Maybe a 'call nearest ambulance', 'call nearest officer', maybe even call BN Chief/ EMS Supervisor. Snowballing thought, maybe you could use a captain to command small incidents and request a chief if things get bigger. Either way, another idea, if you DO decide to make the captain, make him USABLE. One of my biggest beefs with the SG mod is that you only have 4 people on that engine and one of them (the captain) can't use a hose, tools, anything. So, technically, you ony have 3 useful firefighters. and that's on EVERY engine. you just cut your manpower down on any given scene by at least 25%But I digress, it's your baby, I'm just a thinker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xplorer4x4 Posted January 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 I may look in to something along that lines, but your right, that was one thing that bothered me about the SG Submod to, was the loss of manpower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swisscow41 Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 In terms of realism captains don't really do anything at incidents besides call for tow trucks, other units, and micromanage where the firefighters make cuts and spray water! ;-) Also the other person on the engine would be the engineer who stands by the pump panel and adjusts pressure and stuff. So really you'd only have two firefighters. I like the balance between realism/game play in the SG submod and used the firefighter from the BC's car or an ambulance to make up for the "missing man" but definitely agree with swaylord about making him usable. It just gives you more options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billyfromhill Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 In LA city, a BC is dispatched to all "A" and "B" assignments. The task force captain (captain II) is only is the IC until the BC arrives, which is not that long. Keep in mind that the task force will arrive together, which is 10 firefighters total arriving all at once in addition to any resources already at the incident.

It just gives you more options.You know I had thought about applying just that, have an engineer who runs to the pump panel when you hit rapid deploy and maybe have the captain just stand by the passenger side door, but for the game of game play, I am not sure how I feel about sacrificing 2 ffs much less one. Not to mention how others would feel about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texas_DPS Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 you could always add it. like in SG's mod i reconfigured it to have the normal staffing plus the captain so i didnt miss out on much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
