sanmannyc Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 hello all, not trying to get off topic, i just do not understand why people who play these awesome mods which by the way you don't have to pay for cannot understand the one big rule, do not ask for release dates. i am so grateful to have all of the wonderful modders out there trying new things to enhance everyone's gameplay and the last thing i'm gonna do is anger people with when is it coming out, are u almost done,etc. thankyou all for putting in this extra work which you don't need to even need to share with the rest of us. take your time and keep up the great work! happy holidays!

resTIMcue Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 I really like the idea of a K-9 Unit...but most k-9 units that i have seen are all SUV's not the crown vic. correct me if im wrong but i dont think that the crown vic is most sutible for the K-9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newfoundking Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 Well if the back seat can seat two large males comfortably, it's fine for a german shepard. At least in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billyfromhill Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 Hoppah, I just noticed that you don't have the large 88 on the back of the SWR truck like in the picture. This is would be one of those small things that really brings the mod to life. http://www.flickr.com/photos/mikesphotos_us/3537150733/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a flat panel back there instead of a plastic bench seat. Plenty of room once you take that out.-d Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAPD does not utilize SUV's for their Canine officers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LACityFFengineCo287 Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 i ask hoppah not you!Nice job breaking the ToS. You crossed yourself and then made yourself a suspect XD that's how it's done. You are now an example of how to lie about asking for a release date, then admit it.I really like the idea of a K-9 Unit...but most k-9 units that i have seen are all SUV's not the crown vic. correct me if im wrong but i dont think that the crown vic is most sutible for the K-9The Crown Vic is more than suitable for a K-9 unit. The Crown Vic is probably the most widely used car for any police force, from traffic to undercover. In California, Crown Vic's are used for K-9's (This is not from a guide, but from experience, and not me being arrested, but places I tend to be around quite a bit now) L.A, San Bernadino County, Riverside (City and County) San Diego, Orange (Their switching to Chargers, as are most police forces) and many more. Point is, It's suitable. I think SUV's are over the top.Well if the back seat can seat two large males comfortably, it's fine for a german shepard. At least in my opinionAgreed.I'd say that 75% of the PD's around the LA area use Crown Victoria's for their K9 units. There is a flat panel back there instead of a plastic bench seat. Plenty of room once you take that out.-dNot exactly. Mostly depends on where you look, the Vic's are more maneuverable and can accelerate faster than an SUV, making them more suitable for all around use. other counties use them, not L.ALiking the look of 2.0 btw!Great pic's btw MikeOff Topic: Great news guys, I have to be Santa on Saturday. Just don't ask which one out of the 100's to 1000's in L.A, hahaha (Probably an exaggeration) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoppah Posted December 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 I won't be able to mod for a couple of days, because I just got Windows 7 Professional for my computer. Installing games is the last step, so you all have to wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoppah Posted December 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 Update: There won't any other additions to v2.0 besides the new features which were already posted (click!), but I can happily announce that v2.0 will be released before the end of the year! I am still busy with testing the new additions and making a Deluxe version of the new freeplaymap, but that shouldn't take that long. I also need a few trustworthy people who are willing to host a mirror of the Los Angeles Mod v2.0 when it's going to be released. PM me of you're interesed and let me know how you are going to host the mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be nice if they were the same so I can just copy and paste my current edited scripts that have the tiller in FS1. A suggestion. The timers for the light force to leave the station when the BC or EMS captain calls them are too short if you have the tiller in FS1. The engine ends up driving inside the trailer of the tiller since trailers have no physics. The engine should always be following the truck anyways because tha's what MikesPhotos said in his guide.
