  1. I know what needs to be done, just not HOW to do it... lol Essentially, looking at the picture, if you were to install Truck 7 right where it is, the script would need to tell it to delete ladder7.4p, and create ladder7_reversed.e4p in the same spot. The game engine would then THINK the Ladder is now facing the LEFT of the screen, while it appears to you to be facing the right side as it is in the picture. The whole issue I faced at first was when I put the regular ladder superstructures on, ane loaded the game, they all jammed through the cab from the turntable, and the bucket was about three truck lengths in front. So, being the cunning and devious ba***rd I am, I creayed copies of the superstructures, but they're all backwards. As I said before, this works marvelous, until you try to raise the aerial. I've tried to modify the LACrane script, but, I had absolutely no luck... It'd be cool if Xplorer4X4 of one of the other scripting gods could work it, or at least let us know if they've tried that.. I would do it myself, but, I can't get scripts through my thick-skull for the friggin life of me..

  2. Hey guys... I worked on this for hours.... I have a midmount ladder in my customized version of the LA mod (completely re-worked to be a Buffalo, NY Mod)... I sliced a cab off an engine, sliced the back of the ladder truck, turned that around so the lowered sides sit behind the cab, and stuck it to the cab of the engine... then I added copies of the Ladder superstructures, but reversed... they sit absolutely PERFECTLY on the truck, until you try to raise it... then the stick portions move downwards into the ground and off the the driver's side of the truck while the bucket floats upwards and to the officer's side.... I think (stressing the think portion) that if it were scripted like the crane in the LA Mod, where upon installing, it creates a sepereate prototype, which the game would THINK is now facing the other direction, but would appear to be facing the correct direction (just a reversed model), and that "reversed" prototype had regular aerial superstructures, it would work.  I have limited scripting knowledge, and don't exactly know how to do this, but, I believe it would work...  I tried to upload a picture, but my internet connection's a little screwy right now... I hope I explained this enough....Edit: I lied... it worked... lol

  3. Closest thing I know that matches the model is a an124 that the Russians use but it is a em mod not a flight sim mod so doesn't really matter for sure it's not a c130 they have propellers

    Correct. The Lockheed C-130 Hercules runs props.

    However, NFK, You're skin looks absolutely amazing. If you're looking for the correct, or rather, the closest designation for the plane, it seems to me like its a VERY close replica of a CP-140 Aurora. The Aurora is simply an updated version of the C-130. Wonderful aircraft really, long range.. AIRCOM is using them more and more frequently now.. they've got ASW, MedEvac, LRT and SaR capabilities...

    Also, just a request/question... are we likely to see any Canadian Forces Search and Rescue Labradors? That'd be SWEET! lol

    GREAT job on the mod! Glad to see somethin' coming from the True North Strong and Free (and cold). lol

  4. If you don't mind using the exact same model and paint job, its easy to have four different vehicles with the same shape and colour. All that's required is making a new prototype. My recomendation would be to copy the FBI Tahoe, and put it into the directory you want (most likely you'll want 03 LA Police). Then name your new prototype, something easy generally works best for me, so, as you want an LAPD Unmarked Tahoe, I'd suggest something like 03 LA Police/tahoe_lapd_unmarked.e4p. Then you can edit the lights, traits, etc, and the wheels and doors will be there. That's the easiest possible way to make multiple vehicles from one model. I hope this helps, and if you need more help, feel free to pm me :)

    Cheers,

    Eli

  5. JUUUUUUUST sayin, y'all are losers. legos. how childish can you get!?! LMFAO!! kidding, considering I just finished building a rear-mount, tandem axle aerial ladder :P Black over red, all red lights :)

  6. I've seen it (good work to eggcarton, btw), like it, and have downloaded it for personal use... I just haven't seen any BP crown vics with them... I'm only finding hallogen bars and the odd vector.. most coming out now are probably led, but I haven't seen any pics yet, so i can't say for sure.. we'll see how it goes :)

  7. That lightbar on the USBP car doesn't seem to match the pic.

    In all honesty, I was thinking the same thing. The files I sent to him include the one shown, plus one with an LED lightbar... I'll see if Ale would prefer to have one LED, and one halogen bar (pictured).. If there's great demand for it, that's what I'll do...

  8. It seems to be the exact same script as the one Xplorer made above you...though it may have the right changes, so I will try it out.

    *2 minutes later*...Wow, you got it! It spawns a paramedic and a paramedic stretcher, thanks for the help.

    Anytime :) Glad I could help :)

  9. I took a quick look. The problem I saw was

    			GameObjectList l3;
    Game::CollectObstaclesOnVirtualObject(VO_AMBULANCE01, l3, ACTOR_VEHICLE);
    if(l3.GetNumObjects() > 0)
    {
    Vehicle m = l3.GetObject(0);
    PersonList passengers = m.GetPassengers();
    if (passengers.GetNumPersons() == 0)
    {
    if(StrCompare(m.GetPrototypeFileName(), OBJ_AMBULANCE02LED) == 0)
    {
    m.PushActionExecuteCommand(ACTION_NEWLIST, DUMMY_CALLCREW, Caller, 7, false);
    //m.PushActionWait(ACTION_APPEND, 0.5f);
    //m.PushActionExecuteCommand(ACTION_APPEND, DUMMY_CALLCREW, Caller, 3, false);

    } else
    {
    m.PushActionExecuteCommand(ACTION_NEWLIST, DUMMY_CALLCREW, Caller, 1, false);
    m.PushActionWait(ACTION_APPEND, 0.5f);
    m.PushActionExecuteCommand(ACTION_APPEND, DUMMY_CALLCREW, Caller, 2, false);
    }
    }
    }

    needed to be changed to

    			GameObjectList l3;
    Game::CollectObstaclesOnVirtualObject(VO_AMBULANCE01, l3, ACTOR_VEHICLE);
    if(l3.GetNumObjects() > 0)
    {
    Vehicle m = l3.GetObject(0);
    PersonList passengers = m.GetPassengers();
    if (passengers.GetNumPersons() == 0)
    {
    if(StrCompare(m.GetPrototypeFileName(), OBJ_AMBULANCE02LED) == 0)
    {
    m.PushActionExecuteCommand(ACTION_NEWLIST, DUMMY_CALLCREW, Caller, 1, false);
    m.PushActionWait(ACTION_APPEND, 0.5f);
    m.PushActionExecuteCommand(ACTION_APPEND, DUMMY_CALLCREW, Caller, 2, false);

    } else
    {
    m.PushActionExecuteCommand(ACTION_NEWLIST, DUMMY_CALLCREW, Caller, 1, false);
    m.PushActionWait(ACTION_APPEND, 0.5f);
    m.PushActionExecuteCommand(ACTION_APPEND, DUMMY_CALLCREW, Caller, 2, false);
    }
    }
    }

    Find attached the new LAFireStation.script you need, with all changes made :)

  10. Hoping not to get shot for double posting, I'd like to ask a question.. Does anyone know how to get a program to take screenshots in game other than Fraps? Fraps, even after at LEAST 5 re-installs, still doesn't like me, and won't save anything... So, if anyone could point me in the right direction, I'd LOVE to show my updated Rescue 1, R/M 557, my new Division Chief's SUV, etc... Thanks one and all :)

  11. L15 is geting a new truck L13 justgot a new one :8:

    Holy F*CK!! I just checked it out on Wow Me Photos! That is a freaking amazing truck!! Congrat's to the guys of T13!! That thing looks AWESOME!!! Do you know the make/model? It looks like a Rosenbauer... And is 15 getting the same? They're due for an upgrade... As is Truck 10....

  12. What the problem is, is when you select the light you have made 'blue', you also have to change the 'Radiation' Colour... you have three options, Red, Blue, and I think Green... anyways, you can pick the level of the three from 0 to 255, 255 being the richest colour.. setting red and green to 255 and blue to 0 allows for a yellow light... also, for a white light with a blue tint (like modern LED's white, Red = 200, Green = 200, Blue = 255.... hope this helps :)

  13. Changed , new pics and i added the border patrol officer to the vehicle

    it will replace the CHP patrol car

    I only have to wait to authorization of Hoppah

    The only problem I see with this being released is: It replaces a unit, making it just a reskin... if you were to get it as an additional unit, I think Hoppah would be more likely to grant permission...

    The only other thing I'm concerned with is: The model, the green stripe is a bit too... neon... if you were to put a darker, more olive-drab coloured stripe on, it'd be MUCH better.

    But, that aside, I like it... I've always wanted a BP Crown Vic... Might influence me to make my own :)

  14. Update: 5 MAY 10

    I am happier than a pig in sh*t for the simple reason of having my mod back :D A Few kinks I'm still trying to work around:

    1) I can't seem to get an internet connection on my good computer

    2) my Floppy disks won't work (My p.o.s. computer that will run the internet doesn't have a USB port lol)

    So, as soon as I can figure out either of the two problems, I'll post some pics of my enhanced Buffalo Fire Rescue 1 (USAR), my Buffalo Police Slicktop (LAPD Slicktop) and my enhanced Ambulances. I'll also show my new Paramedics, EMT's, Fire Fighters, EMS Captain, etc. :)

    Cheers :)

    Eli

    EDIT: WOOOHOOO!!!! I've worked around my first problem!! My good computer (the one with the game on it) is back up and running!! :D I'm gonna see what I can do about getting some new pics up for y'all :)

    EDIT2: Damn!! :( I can't seem to get fraps working for some reason :/ I'm still trying tho guys :)

  15. Well, hello one and all. I sincerely appologise for my absence, I've had a hell *cough* sorry, HECK of a time with my computer. The memory is full, so it's been shipped away to be cleaned. I hope my mod isn't lost, what with MANY MANY hours of sweat, coffee, boredom and pissed off girlfriend nagging in my ear having gone into it... :P lol right now i'm running a dinosaur of a computer (Windows 98 :/ ) that has to be turned on and off by crossing wires (yes, I can also do the same trick to cars). So, needless to say, this heap is completely useless. WHEN I get my mod back *crosses fingers* I will put into place the WONDERFUL new ideas that have come to me by the thousands, and will update as I can.

    SOME news I CAN give you:

    1) Mr(?). Merritt Long has provided me with some absolutely outstanding information along the lines of Unit Numbering, etc, for the WNY Police Services, so I plan to convert the following:

    1) LAPD -> Buffalo Police

    2) LASD -> Erie County Sherriff

    3) CHP -> New York State Police

    4) LAAP -> NFTA (Niagara Frontier Transit Authority) Police

    5) LAPP -> USCBP (United States Customs and Border Protection)

    Also, I've planned to reskin ALL the fire trucks into BFD, and I've got some really good pictures of Rural/Metro Flycars (EMS Supervisor type deals) to get them looking better, and I've been researching LED lighting, etc, so I've got a few ideas with them to toy with.

    I'm REALLY hoping to have my computer back within a week or so, and now that I'm out of school, I can devote even more time to it :)

    I appreciate all the interest in my mod, and feel free to email me to ask any questions or voice any concerns :)

    Thanks again guys,

    Eli

  16. Ok, so, I'm at a dead wall here. I've uninstalled the mod, reinstalled it, un installed the game, reinstalled it AND the mod, installed patch 2.0.1, uninstalled everything, re-downloaded everything (except the game), re-installed everything, and I got the mod to load ONCE (about half an hour ago) and after about 5 minutes in the editor, it gave me the 'Blue Screen of Death,' and I restarted the computer. I feel as though I'm about to throw my effing computer out the effing window into the effing snow. is there ANYthing I can do?? I'll attach a log file and DxDiag...

  17. so, I'm pretty stoked to watch the next TML game... after their franchise rattling trades, they've won 2 of 3 games; a 3-0 shut-out of NJ (I think) and last night they got a 5-0 shut-out over the Sens... I think this might shake some fear into peoples hearts for next season ;):D

  18. There's one thing that makes me impartial to the end of the world being in 2012 (even though I voted yes, which was just to piss people off :P )

    Justin Bieber goes with us!!!!

    And, the way I see it is;

    "I've survived Y2K, 9/11 (no disrespect meant), Bird Flu, Swine Flu, etc, so, 2012, here I come, and I'm PISSED!!!! lol
