You know the make image hosting sites for things like that? Like www.imageshack.us

Theres a Freightliner Ambulance in Additional Units Submod.

[ENG343INE]

i know theres a large RA in the game but i was thinking why not up date it to a spartan furion/braun rescue ambulance or even change the als RA to that unit

[Texas_DPS]

since people are asking why not make a quint? just have a seperate script for use as a ladder and another for a pumper. if i could just get a model of a quint that would be better than nothing, lol

[ENG343INE]

LA City Fire dosen't use quints they have trucks but LA County Fire does

[Texas_DPS]

well i dont think LA City uses rescue trucks like other people asked for, just saying. why is everyone on the border patrol? what do they add to the mod? they arnt even really in LA County, they are a little south i thought.

[ENG343INE]

what about these units for the submod for LAFD

[Texas_DPS]

the LA Mod already has a US&R and engines, but a new brush (remake of the HES) would look nice. the helo, maybe to bring FF to scene but i dont know about having it drop water, but that would be cool.

Ok just checking. Personally I think the Spartan is ugly, but I wouldnt mind a newer large chassis rescue ambulance like this:

I agree, Border Patrol was the most useless thing ever added. I mean LA is not on the border so I doubt its real common seeing border patrol in LA. At that point it would likley be an issue for ICE(Immigration).

what about these units for the submod for LAFD

Brush patrol is already in the game, a model EXACTLY like that minus the light bar.
Pretty sure we have the exact same helio in game.
Engine - This is a KME Engine. As it stands there are only 2 in service that I know of, so it may be a bit soon for that.
USAR- Is basically in the mod already as a Hazmat. The only difference beteen the Hazmat and USAR version of this truck is the USAR has a dual rear axle. I imagine this is because it needs to carry much heavier equipment then the hazmat truck.I have included the USAR version like pictured here in my upcoming submod, but Ale is welcome to do his own reskin and include it.

[askjeeves]

The problem with trying to add ICE into the game (in my opinion) is that they have no marked vehicles that I have ever been able to find. They seem to drive predominantly unmarked vehicles, which would have them appearing in game like the ATF or the FBI, just riding around in unmarked cars, either in jackets saying ICE, or in tactical gear. If you really want something from the ICE family, that would be seen around LA, how about the Federal Protective Service? They're a subordinate organization of ICE, and are responsible for providing law enforcement and security to federal buildings.

[ENG343INE]

the USAR is differnt unit from the hazmatt squad unit because the usar carries search and rescue equipment and other specialised eqiument and the hazmatt truck carries equipment to take care of hazmatt calls and the usar in game is not the hazmatt unit,the usar in game is an older unit the newer usar's are red like my photo

[Xplorer4x4]

FPS are Homeland Security from what I see. Nothing about being a division of ICE. I cant see why they would be a division of ICE since there jobs are rather different. Yes both are federal government agencies that are about protecting the security of the US but ICE is about deporting illegal aliens while FPS is about security to federal buildings.

As for ICE Units:

Looks like a new suburban, maybe a tahoe but more likley a suburban as alot of departs seem to use them for various uses these days.

Thats is not an LASD card from the looks of it.

Regardless FSP has plenty of units that could be put in game.

the USAR is differnt unit from the hazmatt squad unit because the usar carries search and rescue equipment and other specialised eqiument and the hazmatt truck carries equipment to take care of hazmatt calls

Nah you think...really? Why do you think i said:
I imagine this is because it needs to carry much heavier equipment then the hazmat truck.

and the usar in game is not the hazmatt unit,the usar in game is an older unit the newer usar's are red like my photo

Please pay attention to what you read.
"Is basically in the mod already as a Hazmat. The only difference between the Hazmat and USAR version of this truck is the USAR has a dual rear axle. I imagine this is because it needs to carry much heavier equipment then the hazmat truck."
The Hazmat truck in the game is ALMOST EXACTLY the same, model wise, to the USAR pictured here aside from the rear axel.

Xplorer, you're right they are not part of ICE any longer. In 2009, President Obama transferred FPS, within DHS, to the National Programs and Protection Directorate, from ICE. So they are still part of DHS, but under a different parent organization than before.

If you look closely at the badge on the side of the truck, you see ICE at the top, but beneath that is Federal Protective Service. Also the crest on the officer's shoulders is the same style as the FPS crests, they're just not clear enough to be able to tell for sure. This picture shows the trucks better



But you're right, there are lots of units that could be added in game, using the FPS as the basis. Although I still like that CBP pickup truck that was being discussed.

[Ale]

If I can i'll do the BMW Motorbike(with a model by borjaXmusic) . I'd like to do the BP "truck/suv" but i don't think that there is a model that thing on the back.

I was thinking it would be cool to have a more modern large scale RA in the la mod, i have a photo the unit its a Spartan Furion/Bruan Rescue Ambulance,it looks like this (now its from Miami Dade Fire Rescue) but i was thinking change the markings

I don't think that the LAFD uses that patrio ambulance, so that would not be real

LA City Fire dosen't use quints they have trucks but LA County Fire does

There is already a truck like that in LA mod (In the LA mod it is from the LAFD but i find a little bit boring another truck like that)
----
The ICE like askjeeves said has only unmarked vehicles(maybe a bus or a suv but I find the ICE a little bit similar to BP). The FPS was interesting but it only protects federal buildings and there are no federal buildings on LA Freeplay map.

what about these units for the submod for LAFD

Well, Xplorer already answered (thank you ). If Xplorer is gonna include the USAR truck in his submod , i don't think that i'm gonna include it.

I just dont see why they would be part of ICE at all for the reason I stated above. Different jobs. Not saying they werent,btw, just saying I dont see the point in being over seen by ICE.

As for the pic, from that distance theres no way to tell wth it says on that badge. It could say UPS for all we know lol.

Well, Xplorer already answered (thank you ). If Xplorer is gonna include the USAR truck in his submod , i don't think that i'm gonna include it.

By all means go for it if you want. I am sure people would like to have the ability to add it outside of my Submod. I did USAR88 so you could do USAR 3 like pictured if you wanted. Hell if you want you can do 88 for that matter since this is a different project then mine.

What about up dating the tiller ladder truck to a alf unit and the als ambulances

[Xplorer4x4]

What about

What about chilling out with a suggestion every single day and give Ale a chance to respond before you go suggest 50,000 more units. Not to mention your missing the point of this submod, its just reskins of other models. As Ale already pointed out this is a reskin project, not make new models project. Anything he does requires that some one has already made a model be made. Not to mention your just clogging up the database with useless pics every day.

[Ale]

I already said that i fin a little boring another unit like that in LA mod(i'm talking about the tiller truck). About the ambulance , there is no model for that ambulance.

As Ale already pointed out this is a reskin project, not make new models project. Anything he does requires that some one has already made a model be made.

Exactly

[askjeeves]

Hey Ale, just wondering how your projects are coming along.

[aitor]

Is all compatible with Additional Units submod? I installed this mod (nice work) without having installed Additional Units s. and the units can be used -less the BP car that it had not officers inside- but now with the other submod I can only use it in the campaing missions.

yes, you need additional units submod if you want the BP car. First install Add. units submod and then + units submod.
