If the crash is random then there's nothing we can do about it other than offer you the SD version which is now available

Sorry if I used the SD Version I would be insulting my computer. My computer is a bad girl and likes things HD.

Dyson / Team,

Only problem to report is the crashing. I had like 6 open calls...MVA...two working fires and like two false alarms and one pending medical transport then it crashed.

I don't mean to be a jerk but is there really any reason you are using a money link service. You've gotten donations...now you want to make money off of people downloading? Is this allowed?

Had a pretty serious structure fire today with one subject badly injured and a police investigation to pot plants being found in the basement. One heck of a way to start the day at 7 am.

Personally right now I am modeling all the trucks but have no idea how to get the programs to script and what language its in. I have looked for tutorials and can't find crap.

This is the tone that will go off when calls come in on the mod.

All day I run a recording software from a scanner to record all calls we have everyday when we roll out. The calls I go on everyday could turn into real calls into the mod so stand by for some examples. Also, if anyone would like to help out...I need it and I have the resources to make this one of the most accurate volunteer department mods out there.

Since its my first time doing any mod for this game I need to learn what are my limitations and how it all works.

The majority of the fire units you pictured can be taken and skinned from the LA mod fire apparatus,they are virtually the same.No need to waste time modeling something that already exists.

You said you could skin so make changes to those and your fire units will be almost complete and you'll have work to show in your topic.

 

Good luck.

 I gave thought about it. I'll do it and see how it comes out and if I don't like it I'll post the models I am working on.

Edit: The models are the really similar but they fail in the sense of accuracy such as the pump panels for engine 1 and 2.

Cool. Have you come up with new scripts and c++ coding for this game, Howard?

Due to the capabilities of the Pierce Dash Pumpers that our department utilizes I have some very unique features planned.

If it's a school project,I guess it would be logical to assume that it's not allowed to have somebody else make a mod for you.

Ugh its a school project being I am in college...learning c++ and then using this mod as a project to memorize what I learn and apply it to something. So if anyone would like to help it is welcomed.

The following units will be developed for Westerly FD:

What kind of skills do you have? Any other members in the group helping you?

I only have 3D Modeling skills and skinning. Programming for whatever language this game runs I will have to learn. I have no assistance from anyone.

Right now guys I am trying to establish a base for the mod. You see 90% of the time when westerly rolls out for a structure fire their first due mutal aid department is in another town...in another state because it is literally just over a small town bridge. I might not include the other volunteer departments but only include Westerly and Another department which will be named soon. I will post some work soon.

Heres some videos to show off of some fires recently in the town:

WARNING: This modification is based on real life volunteer fire departments. All events/missions dipicated in this modification are intended not to represent any actual fires or lose of property or life in the town of Westerly. This modification is made as a beginner project as a programmer in college and a border line modeler. I am learning how to program and increase my current modeling skll with this.

About me: I have been a volunteer firefighter since my early years of high school. I played 911 First Responders in my free time and with friends. I grew a love for my department(s) that I work with everyday.

About the mod: I am a volunteer firefighter in this town of Westerly,Rhode Island. I will provide 100% Accuracy to the units such as Westerly Police Department and the surrounding Fire Departments.

Westerly, Rhode Island is a small beautiful town in the smallest state. We have a population of just 15,000 people with several close fire districts. The main departments in town are Westerly Fire, Dunns Corners, Watch Hill and Misquamicut Fire. This mod is in dedication of ever single member of these departments and the work they do. I work all these departments on a daily basis and they are my brothers and sisters. In total our departments run over 5,000-10,000 Calls a year with our very own Ambulance Corps and EMT Division out of Dunn's Corners Fire Department. More to come in the future as I learn more how to start developing for this game.

This started out as movie but now has the possiblity to become a modification for wonderful 911 First Responders.

Hey Dyson or someone on the developement team...please tell me you guys put the lights on the installed tower ladders? That was one of my biggest pet peeves of 2.0.3. I have been silently watching the developement of the mod on this thread and this is my only question for you guys.

Hey Dyson got a quick question. I am trying to fix a problem with Manhattan Mod 2.0.3. The CPC vehicle's parking spot is too close to the road for Engine 22 and Ladder 13 and Battalion 10, no civilian traffic can pass by the station when the CPC Vehicle is parked out front. I went into the editor and moved its parking spot across the street but it still parts in front of the station near battalion 10's garage gate. What map file in the editor do I need to fix to move the vehicle across the street to fix traffic.

Goog, Since school is done for me...If you still need me to finish that Federal Q or any other work done please PM me.

Hey Dyson haven't heard anything about bugs recently...how is it coming along bug wise? Also need any modelers?

Apartment building fire. Possible apartment building with corner store on ground level.

I recently replaced the Hazmat truck in station 2 with a ladder but when I send it back to station two it states that there is no more room and returns to HQ

Why dont all the cars in this pack show up in freeplay? I see them in the editor but the white chp cruiser and the some of the unmarked cars dont show up.

Too bad you want to close up the mod dyson....I could of helped but sadly I guess its too late.
