Here's what I've been up to the past few weeks...all models are brand new and uv mapped and low poly!

 

That lifeguard ambulance is certainly a nice touch! Amazing as always!

No, just a normal one with unusual lights.

Initially all I had was one little photo

Now I have three.

I'm glad to see my favorite childhood DvD as your savior!

the concept of police ambulances is interesting, but as far as I know most/all of them in the US were phased out by the late 50s

Talking about the lightbars, is comon in the US red lightbars? I remember the Metro Police and not much more. White and yellow for the NYPD maybe back in the days?

If by metro police you're referring to my Hill Street Blues submod, you should know that that department is 100% fictional and made for the show.

Like the, now gone, Chicago Fire Insurance Patrol?

I'll always be a fan of the New York Fire Patrol but lets not hijack this thread any further

Maybe it's because I am from Spain, but, What's the pourpouse of a salvage squad?

Salvage squads were used in the 20th century mostly to prevent damage to property. This was mainly relocating furniture and preventing water damage in multiple dwelling structures. 

What I can assume would come before USAR would be a salvage type squad like this http://www.usfirepolice.net/ca_california/ca_lafd/ca_los_angeles_retired_squad_27_(9)-1.jpg

this is the most recent picture I can find and I'm not 100% sure if it would fit the era. I'm not the most knowledgeable on the LAFD.

Another 2 RA's to the fleet; An ALS version of the 1992 Type 2, and another variant to the Chevies.

I look forward to showing off the BLS versions soon.

Credit to MikeyPI for the Econoline van, and Hoppah for the Code3 XL lightbar texture.

My second agenda is this ambulance.

I would like to consult with people here regarding whether it should be included or not. Only one picture of it exists, and it looks very off-spec to all other LAFD RA's, but it might be worth it to some players.

As a fan of more obscure units, I'd really like it to be included. 

Amazing, I think the BF map will do well for this mod!

Out of curiosity, what font are you using for "Metro Police" on the side of the police cars? It fits really well with the theme/era

Unispace. It's a great font for things in this era, as a matter of fact it's the same font I use for the numbers on the fire trucks

Heres something I've been working on. Wasn't sure if it was gonna come out good but I'm happy with it. Rear by THVFD with some lights by Itchboy slapped on, cab by Rafaell and the Emergency Brazil team, lightbar by Hoppah (i'm pretty sure)

Dang itch, looks like you beat me to the open cab tiller club, and probably did it better than I ever would.

Amazing work as always!

bug found, missing MP5s for SWAT officers, can add "debug traffic" button in fire stations and police stations as npc traffic always stuck after riot callouts, disappearing swat vans

missing MP5s is a known bug. The weapons are still functional.

I am not going to add a debug traffic button if the traffic is not bugged, it's down to you to fix traffic jams created by calls.

I've never encountered any 'disappearing swat vans', please elaborate

Hello this is a good mod!  but the lights of the police cars and ems and firetrucks are all just white squares  can you tell me how to fix it  

Please observe the download page and previous posts. The coronas from the Miami mod are required. 

In the future I plan for all those vehicles to have their respectful replacements. 

It's very hard finding good reference pics for the era or from the show itself for these types of vehicles.

when I return to this mod my main priorities are for Coroner and EMS variation.

Just now, Squad 65 said:

Woohoo. Good Job!!!!!

spoken like someone who watched me fumble over virtual objects and paths....almost like you did

Some quick updates.

I've gotten the go to hospital and patrol scripts to work. After that I've got to get some stations in, then later another event or two, and the map will be pretty much done.

Above all, though, vehicles are my biggest priority right now. Theres still a few more I need to work on, but I've got some help. The project is moving along much quicker than expected.

I did some poking around on the german forums and found a free to use map base I might take and mess around with. Theres a lot of city and water space, so it will be ideal for a mod like this. Thats still far into the future though, so lets focus on the present for now.

I could walk outside and do a flip right now dude, this looks amazing!

Ok y'all. I need your help again. I edited EmC_Units 1998 Pierce Dash for this mod (one of my favorite models on this website) and replaced the LED lightbar with a more era-appropriate (and easier to light) mx7000 lightbar that was previously in the mod. I've looked and I'm unable to find credits for it. I'm assuming Hoppah, as this model also appears in the base LA mod but I'd like to make sure.

other than that everything is coming along very nicely. More updates to come regarding EMS and FD in the near future 

making me go crazy man, never in my life did I expect to see models of these apparatus, let alone in this quality, for em4

Ok y'all. Quick update. I am now the only person working on this project. This means updates will be slow, but they'll still come. 

Heres a list of planned features, I'm hoping to get a 0.5 release out within the next few months.

- on map clinic and police station

- patrol routes for police cars and ambulances

- New fire department liveries and a few models(white over lime green)

If there is anything you all want to see in the mod please let me know, currently I'm just working with what's already in the mod but that won't be enough for my liking.

As I continue to work on Edgewater I want to take a minute to announce my official plans for the next version. These may change over time but this is the main idea.

-More polygon lights and lighting variation in general

-More fire department vehicle types, variation in the engines.

-More ambulance types, possibly different companies and vehicles.

-A slightly better ladder truck.

Thats all for now but like I said, right now my focus is on Edgewater.

make sure you copy the full link 

I'm stepping away for a little bit to work on Edgewater, but for version two I plan for.
More vehicle variety, new fire engines, new parking spots and new ambulances.

so hold up, two people, working on the same project, and neither knows about the other? Dang we really should communicate better
