you could always make your own O.O

[Dyson]

Thanks for your criticism, I look forward to returning the favour when you make a mod and release it... O.o

[helljumper51]

It wasnt critisim. Its a good skill to learn. One of the best things a modder could do is learn how to model. If all you have is crappy models then no one will try it out.

[Newfoundking]

In response to the comment about the revoked engines, what we said was that we don't want to use a model if another mod is using the same model for the same city, just with a different number on it. The author then chose to withdraw his permission from the model due to that and other reasons. We will be releasing more mod versions, so this isn't anything to do with the german new york mod. They do everything on their own, no outside models as far as I know..

And in regards to the not legally allowed to use it, techincally, since you didn't make it, and he isn't giving you permission, you can't use it, under intellectual property copy rights. And even if they aren't being enforced by law enforcement agencies, we do enforce those here, where if you use something you didn't make, it needs credit given and also permission given.

Just figured I'd answer some questions

Thanks for clearing that up, all I got from hellijumper is: I made this engine for another mod not yours, please remove it... so I was rather confused.

Anyway aside from people... here's some more updates, just a look at the map..
Thoughts and opinions would be useful in the map renovation stage

[aitor]

Looking good, do you finally get the team to do the NY style buildings?

[L.C. Long]

The HQ (?) looks veeeeeery good (Not directly it, but the developement)

Haven't decided if it will have any function, but this is the FBI HQ, then there will be 2 Firehouses and 2 Precincts

P.S check out the screens for some improved units, not all are as easy to see

[groovybluedog]

Oh my god?!? It's an FBI base? I would have never guessed with FBI Agents, FBI Vans and FBI Signs! LOL. (I'm joking around)

Looks great! I have a few suggestions though :]

And what the hell is a "Precinct" - I'm british.

[ErlendBerg]

One word: AWSOME !!

And Precinct is a american word for police district

Keep up the good work

Haha I'm british too, gotta get with the lingo ;D and go on... any suggestions are welcome

[groovybluedog]

Do you live in New York or something? If you were British (or at least living in England now) surely you would be making an England Mod (Unless you live in Scotland or something )

Nar manchester in england, but British Police are pretty crap tbh, but I am currently working on one, just not in the limelight like this one ahah

[groovybluedog]

If you live in the UK, Why are you doing a NY Mod? O.o

As for suggestions, what bases are you doing? FBI... What about Hospitals/Police/SWAT/Fire and stuff like that?

[groovybluedog]

Still don't know what Precints are though. Lolz.

Here's what a precinct is.. look at images

[dwpirate]

Groovy -

There are quite a few excellent uk mods out there, but when this was started, no fdny mods existed. The allure to fdny is the same as the allure to being a movie star - they're the best known and percieved by many as the best.

As for precincts, the nypd divides its coverage areas into zones or wards. These wards all have a station. A station and the area it serves are a precinct. Not unlike a fire station and their district.

Dyson, great work, I can't wait to enjoy this. the fdny mod is good, but lacking in some areas. While this might "only" be a submod, I think it will have far superior gameplay.
