So are you having US and European units together in one mod, or are you planning a separate mod for the UK/European units?

 

Nice work on the police units! Good luck with the rest

EDIT: Only U.S. units will be in this release.

That's a bit strange to see two totally diff types together.. just mein opinionne

[Fred03]

Yeah we fought a war about that!

I said a few weeks ago that I was going to show off some EMS units. Well... I ended up scrapping the black and red paint scheme for EMS, and I will be replacing it with a white and blue design. On a different note, I have been working on implementing scripts and recording new sounds over the past week. You may see some gameplay coming up soon

 

UPDATE: I am looking for someone to do lighting, PM me for additional info.

Its a work in progress and is not complete yet. SO there is no download link.

Like Bill said, no download yet. Still in Alpha stage. There may be a Beta release, but currently there are two performance crippling bugs:

 

1. After about 10 minutes of playing in freeplay, game will begin to drastically lag when a vehicle is selected.

 

2. Multiplayer crashes once loading bar finishes.

 

MP instability isn't as big of an issue as freeplay as of now. If you have any info. in regards to those problems you can either PM me or reply.

 

As far as progress, LCFR is only going to run BLS (Basic Life Support) Ambulances. There will be a medic flycar on map which you call to ALS (Advanced Life Support) medical runs. This is to add some diversity to EMS and not just get on scene/treat/transport all with one unit (Although that does happen in real life most times).

For the lag, does it happen when you have alot of vehicles on the map after that time? Or is it always after 10 minutes regardless?

I like that idea of having only BLS ambulances, as I like to use the EMS captain, then use him to call for the appropriate ambulance. Otherwise he doesn't really have a use if you have all ALS ambulances.

Thanks for the update. I looked at the screenshots on the first page, I love the police cars.

I LOVE THIS IDEA. Gives something different about it. Im assuming we can call an ALS fire engine to assist the BLS ambulance as well though?

After testing out different mods and looking at the FPS I got, it turns out that most mods have an FPS drop when selecting a unit, it is just more noticeable in the LC-Police mod for me. However, when I was playing the Montana Mod today I also got about the same FPS drop. EX: If I had three units selected simultaneously the FPS went from 95-23. So I am hoping that if you can run the Montana mod without issues, the LC-Police mod should work just fine.

Probably scripts constantly checking some little detail or another when you have them selected.

[Fred03]

How's this mod going anyway?

Yeah I get that with the Montana mod, I'm not sure if its because of the radiation, models or something, but since I edited the lights the FPS drop isn't so bad.

Here are some screenshots I took in game. The Squad 252 texture is temporary and from the Brooklyn Mod. The Medic chase car skin will also be changing slightly. The medics are run by the hospital which is the reason why the livery is blue.
