    I absolutely love this mod, it was a great present for the end of my semester. I especially love the range of units without being overkill. I do have the same issue with traffic jams occurring in some spots due to the light cycles. In future versions, have you given any thought to adding the stabilize script to Met AFOs? As I understand it, they receive some degree of fairly advanced trauma care training (I have no idea about the CoLP ones) and it may be an interesting thing to add if you get the permission for it. Finally, I have more of a realism regarding the use of DPG cars. I recall a few years ago seeing a Traffic Cops episode where the Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire Roads Policing Unit was pursuing a suspected murderer into Met territory and a red ARV instead of a silver one conducted the hard stop. Is such a situation common/possible, or was that more likely a spare car being used by normal AFOs despite the markings? All in all I was incredibly impressed with the mod.

    Diplomatic Protection officers will respond to standard armed response incidents if there's no other ARVs available, so that could well be the reason. Or it could be a spare car, but it seems rather unlikely - I would have thought that they should have enough Trojan cars really to cover, especially given that they use the old Trojan BMWs as area cars because they don't have enough of the one and an oversupply of the other.

    Reports of a traffic accident are coming in, we have been told 2 members of London's Roads Policing Unit were involved in the accident. Emergency services are on scene. Traffic is backing up as its a busy Friday afternoon,  police say its best to avoid the area if possible.

     

    An onlooker filmed the incident from their flat balcony.

    Been playing the mod for an hour or so. The parking script is great for when your setting up scenes... But I have noticed that the script will bug out if you order a vehicle to park while it is still moving once it has parked up it then bugs out causing the vehicle to become stuck and not able to move resulting in the old trick of shooting it and recovering it. I have also noticed that the traffic light bug is still there from v1.2 lol which is what was causing all this traffic to built up in the picture. Other then them 2 little problems I'm loving v1.3

    EDIT: For some reason I can no longer get linked images to appear in my post. Managed to get image posted by using Imgur

    India-98 is on scene

  4. City of London Police have released a still from CCTV footage near the UK's Kuwaiti Embassy after police and ambulance services responded earlier in the day to what is believed to have been a hostage situation. Witnesses say they heard bangs and shots fired around the embassy area before being rushed away by armed police officers. The Metropolitan Police Diplomatic Protection Group have confirmed a man was fatally shot by Counter Terrorism officers of the Specialist Firearms Command during entry to the embassy, and that a bomb squad was dispatched but did not find any explosive devices in the building. The Kuwaiti government has refused to comment on the situation, but has said that their diplomats are safe. High levels of congestion are being experienced around Albert Gate as police direct traffic away from the area. Developing...

    Ah, I see. Sorry, there's me being thick

     

    Love the mod update! It's absolutely amazing, the map is fantastic, and I love COLP being in there! Plus the DPG having proper uniforms is great

    To answer both your questions....

    Mintcake's post clearly says there is a pdf file in the mod folder with a list of the known bugs. I'm sure you know how to find the mod folder!

    And ' Please don’t PM me asking to use the London Mod (especially the map) as a starting point for ANY kind of submod…No permission will be given now…Or anytime in the future!' pretty much answers your second question. 

    I beg to differ; there is no such PDF in the mod folder.

  7. TACRfan, I've just been setting up your units in the new save (yes, I know, I spotted you'd done it when I finished :P), and all I can say is... wow. Just wow. You've done amazing... In less than a week, you've turned an unplayable mod into my favourite mod!?! That's some feat. I had one complaint other than BTP, but I've forgotten what it was! While I was setting up, every 20 seconds I'd think I'd finished and then go "oh wait, there's another load of cool stuff over there!". Just wow. Can't wait to dive into this further :D

  8. Just to let people know, within 10 minutes of play, the following bugs (or expected features which weren't there) have been found:

     

    • Placing a floodlight from a HATO crashes the game to desktop
    • HATOs can't redirect vehicles, only their cars can
    • Fire engines trying to move from the top-left station to the bridge next to it with the roadworks on don't pathfind correctly and stop at the engineer's base
    • As previously mentioned, the tow trucks aren't even the LA mod ones anymore - they're the game default TEC ones
    • The S/AFOs (it's unclear) next to the armoured Land Rover appear to be wearing jeans...?
    • HATOs are the default engineer ped and not a custom one
    • Firefighters can't enter the fire station unless the garage doors are up
    • There are only two proper firefighters (plus a CM, WM and SM) on the default map at the bottom-right fire station - and some are randomly placed outside a house down the road

    That's just 10 minutes, there may well be more, and some of these may be known/intentional - I just thought it'd be an idea to let people know. Pottyscotty, if you do have a known bugs list for it, can you publish it please? :)

  9. The map for the mod update is beautiful, I love it. However, to be honest that's all I can really say for it. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed; I don't know whether that's justified or not, but there it is. It feels a lot more like a map edit to the previous version to me than it does a new update. It's also a huge shame the BTP (which I was looking forward to most) was removed.

    Sorry, but this really does disappoint me. I'd love to see this continued, but I think Pottyscotty himself summed it up best, and in my opinion this should have been clearer from the start: "this isn't really a playable mod". I really wish that had been indicated before people got connected to it and excited about it.

  10. Done some very nice private edits , if you want I can upload them :)

    (Modified rock fest , edited police base, edited port base, made a port checkpoint, its very nice ;), fire training area , made a supermarket with a queue and fights might happen :D. , black Friday ;)

    Things I might add , improved poet area , more traffic control at festival and a parking area/improved

    Any suggestions appreciated !

    Thanks,

    Mark

    Ooh! I'd love to see those if you ever get permission to release, sounds really good =>

  11. Mobile phone footage released by the British Transport Police today revealed a security incident at Southall Mainline Station. It is believed that the Land Rover pictured is from the Explosive Ordnance Disposal team of the Met. Bomb squad officers were present on the scene, along with British Transport Police Specialist Firearms Officers in Volvo V70s, British Transport Police officers in Astras, and several BMW Trojan units, including an X5, from the Met.
