nice job on the mounties in red serge Dyson...look forward too seeing the other general duty personnel.Also big thanks too CFD for bringing Dyson on board and a huge thanks for Dyson for helping out and bringing his skills to our project!!!
Here's an updated set of pics with the correct bars and coloured gps pucks.I agree with CFD, as we are striving to produce realistic actual units . In the case of a fictional unit ,too make it as realistic as it would appear in the RCMP inventory, if it was a real unit.

Wow I really didnt think i would be this excited when this first started..but this is amazing. Love all the units and the attention to detail.
Great to see dyson helping out too- he started out just like you Goog1967 and i would say your reskinning is on the same level.
Question about that police rescue truck- is that real or fictional?...dont think i've ever seen it.

[goog]

Thanks admntrs.The ERT truck is based on a box van version that was a real unit in the Courtenay RCMP detachment,the truck box unit itself is just an improvement over the la mod box van, so that is why I chose it...

Looks really cool- the RCMP should adopt it for all detachments . Will it be the main ERT vehicle then or will there be a couple like in LA?

not to make fun of the work dyson or anyone does, but the mounties look like they are wearing puma shoes and not boots, lol. its not your fault, its the game. good work guys, they all look good.

stupid question, what is the SU on the back of the cars for?

[goog]

Yes Tex,the boots were out getting repaired and they had too don the leather dress pumas...The SU is "Surrey Unit",the lower mainland spans many cities and police agencies,both city and RCMP police forces.
Also I think it's for the air unit to identify the ground units,as general duty RCMP in smaller populations have no letters or unit numbers.
The other big RCMP units in the area are:RI(Richmond),BU(Burnaby),NV(North Vancouver) and so on....
The ERT will consist of the suv suburban,ERT rescue box truck,ERT armored personnel carrier and maybe a umpc.The ERT rescue van will be the main unit.

this is a map of the lower mainland that makes up the greater vancouver regional district ,population as of 2007 was 2.3 million,most of the cities in this area are covered by the RCMP for policing duties.The exception being Vancouver,West Vancouver,Port Moody,Delta,New Westminster and Abbotsford which have city police services.

As always, this mod is running great, you are doing a great job and we also have great partners, congratulations

[goog]

a new lightbar,this is the Whelen red and blue stobe that was in service and was and is being replaced by the Federal Signal Legend,in Surrey there are still many units with this lightbar...

Hey goog1967, you are right about police agencies are putting the two letters on their cars, it is mostly for Air 1 - 3 like you also said. I believe they are actually starting to do this more and more with other areas as well. Up here in Squamish we have SQ and Whistler has WH. the SU on surreys units is actually Surrey. Not Surrey Unit.

Looks great again man and can't wait to play it.

[admntrs]

Looking good as always. I thought I heard something about sirens a while back- are you doing those as well as the lights?

[goog]

Sirens are done,we have the correct federal signal smart siren...it sounds like this one

[RiotGear]

better and better!

[goog]

switched out all my chargers to Nnico models,much cleaner and a joy too skin!!!! I re-did the skin on the BCAS charger and it's leaps and bounds above previous version,not too mention that it now has the correct push bar and a decent light bar...

[goog]

I gave all the umpc's a new accurate reproduction of the back window light bar,in the following 2 pics are the 2 styles used by the RCMP
I made a grill that hides the lights on a few umpc's
2 out of the 6 umpc's will have no pushbars,ect and will look civilian till you light them up

[admntrs]

Chargers and umpcs's look great! Have you had plans for re-skinning the FBI units? It would be cool if you changed them to like IHIT or something...anyway it all looks good as usual. Btw- you have the best profile pics, Goog1967 =p

[goog]

Thanks admntrs,yes she's there too motivate me...I think the only real useable government unit is the FBI suv,which we have had a few ideas about. One was a police package unmarked tahoe k9 but we're holding off on that one for a bit(a few surprises still too come)
The RCMP does have a field command center unit but still uncertain if I will skin one,we'll see...as far as IHIT I searched and can't find any pics of what they drive(saw one and it looked like a GMC safari van lol)I do however think that the blue or brown civilian looking umpc would be a good choice.

[admntrs]

Oh ok no big deal then...I was thinking more along the lines of personnel too...not much out there that differs from this guy.
Anyway I think we all like the sound of surprises-look forward to release

This would make my life.
