customshirts Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Hey Dyson,First of all... I just wanted to say I created an account on this site because of your mod. I'm a screen printer and embroider in NYC... and my 2 largest customers are NYPD and FDNY. I got an older version of one of the emergency games as a gag gift this Christmas because Im always wearing some of the apparel I create for FDNY or NYPD... and always get mistaken for being "on the job". Not to mention Im always at one of the training centers or at special divisions HQ's and get access to some of the cool vehicles and such. So I get made fun at by some of my employees who say I should have been a cop or firefighter. Well just the other day... as I was being snowed in... I installed the game and saw all the international vehicles. it was ok... but ran into a problem with one of the scenarios... so I went to youtube and OMG!! I found all these mod videos for New York and LA. Wow. That led me to this site.I seen the other NY mod which looks like it never got released... So again thank you for stepping up.Now for the reason for writing, besides thanking you... I was wondering if I could be of any assistance? I have just about every logo of all the department divisions... and I know photoshop and coreldraw really well... so if I can be of any assistance to you at all in your continued efforts to create new mods... let me know. I would be happy to assist you... to show my appreciation for what you have done.Keep up the great work.Tim(customshirts) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming that you did your homework.. because it shows that you did in what you have done in your mods... there are many FDNY apparatus vehicles... and almost each one uses a slightly different front but they are all similar to the college-gate or also known as Freshman type of font. Some of the fonts I use on our FDNY Apparel are:Freshman <---- Use MostCollegeBou CollegeCollege SlabWanted M45Jersey LettersThen there are some fancy fonts such as:LHF Antique Half BlockLHF BurbankLHF FirehouseLHF FullblockLHF Old StockLHF SmaltsLHF State StreetWe use the fancy ones for specific truck or stationhouse names etc.As for NYPD...Their main font for the letters NYPD is Rockwell Extra BoldThe other stuff on the vehicles in many cases is Freshman.they too tend to have individualized insignia by squad or division.Logos.... Which logos do you want? Let me know what you are looking for or what is on your drawing board and we'll see what we can help you out with. Also I dont know if you are aware of this site or not:http://www.fdnytrucks.comit has actual photos of various generations of about 75% of the FDNY's Apparaus that are in service.Hope this helps.TimIts still in progress its supposed to be released this yearWhy not release what they got and then add on to it later? Keep the interest... keep them wanting more. Granted you can never satisfy someone that way... but giving a little something is better then giving nothing at all. I guess thats why this mod is available... which I am very happy about.Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted you can never satisfy someone that way... but giving a little something is better then giving nothing at all. Most of us rather wait for a complete mod with little bugs than releasing one that could potentially have numerous. Sure they could release it early but most early releases turn out to be a huge disaster and just causes more of a headache than the time spent enjoying the game.....This submod was made to hold people over until the other complete NY mod is done but these guys have been able to improve the game each release so it could turn into a complete mod eventually.I guess thats why this mod is available... which I am very happy about.TimDyson's mod is called a submod for the LA Mod, its not a complete mod. Him and his team has put in a lot of time and effort into remodeling / reskinning / and now designing models. The map and buildings are still from the LA mod. The other NY Mod is a complete mod made from scratch (New models, new scripts, new map, new equipment, etc.) so so its gonna take a lot of extra time before it can be released. It sounds like it may be getting to completion but something could come up to put the release back more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The media package should hold us off until later.Now back to the NY Submod is there a planned version of 2.4 or whatever the next would be.

Im still a fish outta the water here on forum and with the game considering my downloaded version does not work... cant seem to register it. Posted a question in another forum asking what Americans use... and have not got any helpful replies as of yet... so all I have been able to do is try demos.

TimNot trying to be mean lol, just informing you on the difference on why it is taking so long for the other mod to complete compared to Dyson's and why it's not good to release early. It's no problem at all not knowing about everything, a lot of people on this forum will help you out the best we can. So you feel even more welcomed and I was mean to you, I'll say this - customshirts lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dyson Posted February 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 It was said a few months ago.hmm i still dunno, its a huge haul, i doubt it will be done anytime before november, as much as I'd love to play it, realisticly i cant see it being out any time soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I read on there throughout last year that it was suppose to be done by summer of '10 and then read another one done by new years of '11 and it's still not released so until they put up a official release date or approximate time on the first post, then don't look forward to it being released anytime soon as Dyson said.Back on Topic - Dyson or team.It was asked earlier by Station 27 on the next version. Once its out of beta stage, will you make it 2.4 or what will the next version be read as? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadowzuziz Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 hey dyson nothing on you but i strongly recommend that you make a good strong base of the submod (without the bugs) and forget about adding models and stuff right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsutton Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 hey dyson nothing on you but i strongly recommend that you make a good strong base of the submod (without the bugs) and forget about adding models and stuff right nowI agree with Shadow Dyson. That's the reason I uninstalled it to be honest with you. It seems like more and more keeps getting added without getting old bugs fixed.I'm not a expert on scripting and everything but I'll help you out the best I can to help you fix the bugs or whatever else you may need.

jsutton Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 IM working on, it's not released....Haha, I'm well aware that you have not released the new version. I'm talking about the 2.3 beta version.Dyson, have you had any discussions referring to the traffic like making new paths so the cars aren't all lined up everywhere or just making some changes where there isn't like 7 cars coming in 10 second intervals? If so, I'll read through the whole topic to find it and see what was said before I ask questions. If not, I was wondering if you were planning on making some changes to the traffic in the next version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
