jab16 Posted March 21, 2009 Report Share Posted March 21, 2009 um well the thing is is that if you are going to reskin the chp cruser for the police car be aware there is a chance you will have a problem with the bumper and the trunk colors. Also if you end up resking the chp charger it will look really close to the nypd one.Ps: i vote 1995 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xplorer4x4 Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 Oh, and does anyone know how to change the lightbars?Change or add? If you mean change I was wondering that to, but I have a feeling there is no way to do so , but thats just a guess. If you want to add a lightbar go to edit children, then edit child.

jab16 Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 yeah the lightbars are in the origional .v30 model but if you wanted to you could add them to a unit without them as a child.Ps: hey bama did it fix your door problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paramedic_Engine_2 Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 New Cars!! Auxiliary Rescure TruckMobile Command Support VehicleRes5cue Truck 5 Company 2Looks good but it says Rescue 5 under res5cue??? The real Rescue 5 only says Res5cue no truck 5 below it. http://www.fdnytrucks.com/files/html/statenisland/e160.htm also why does it say rescue co. 2 (If you get around to it, rescue 5 does not has a raised cab.One the brush truck, you should but 329 as the number because fdny has a brush brush truck kind of like this, also but ATRV on it. http://www.fdnytrucks.com/files/html/queens/e329.htm Can you color the compartments red? If you can you should. Or on the brush truck, maker the number BFU 4 like one of fdny's Brush trucks.http://www.dotphoto.com/SAN1/82/52/3E/i825...DCC91DC4281.jpg here is the only foam tender the fdny has aside from the old mack foam trucks. If you do the foam tender, here is a good layout. Marine 1 is the oldest and busiest fire boat in the world, built in 1938. Here is a good design for the fire boat. Fdny just put in a new order for two boats but that will be a while. http://www.fdnytrucks.com/files/html/specialunits/ems.htm one of the newer fdny trucks, it is a haz-tec ambulance, carries medical supplies for a hazmat call, this would be beneficial, paramedics would be able to go in with a level A suit on and treat critical patients. If you ever make your own mod, this should be in it. FDNY MERV 3 looks similar to hoppahs mass casualty unit, you could re-skin it and it would very similar to this one. http://www.fdnytrucks.com/files/html/specialunits/ems.htm (You may have to scroll down to find units.I know this is a fleet service car but you could make it the ems supervisor http://image42.webshots.com/42/3/28/62/207...10LHNzAY_fs.jpgAlso just curious why you picked battalion 7 ( I know Engine 1 and truck 24 are under the seventh battalion but battalion 9 is the busiest battalion chief in the world. It is stationed with Engine 54 and truck 4. This is one of the busiest stations in the city of New York. ALSO HOW DO YOU GET HOPPAHS MODELS INTO PAINT WITHOUT ZMODELER??? I am not criticizing you. Everything is starting to come along great. Please send me a pm if you have any questions, I would like to help you make these rigs ads realistic as possible.

Mike CCFESOkay, that is useful information. I apreciate the links, and I'll try to correct as much as I can- as to getting the models into paint, well, how I do it is somewhere earlier in this forum, but I basically unpack the files in the editor. By the way I had no idea that truck 24 was under battalion 7, just a lucky guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jab16 Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 ok bama tought me how to do it so i'll help you return the favor. What you do is go into the editor and load the la mod. Next under the modifications tab second from the bottem is unpack click it. now go under models and select a type of object which in the ambulances case would be under veichels- LA Ambulance. Find the name of the file like ambulance 1 is the amr and so on. Now each unit will have the name of the unit then .v3o. Make sure it says the unit name and not door ao weel. Go to the text bar at the bottem and change the ending from .v30 to .dds Once you do this go into dds converter convert it to bmp and load it into paint.Hope this helps, Jab16Ps: bama did you ever post pics of your esu truck?
