I think it looks very realistic. Kudos! :1046275747_biggthumpup: One thing which relates to all of the vehicles and I did not see it discussed in any other topic is scene lighting from the floodlights. I recall that some police cars and fire trucks used to have lights.

Yes these were removed a while back for the redirection lighting feature on the back of the enginees and police cars.

Those are pictures of OES= Office of Emergency Services trucks, they're stationed across the state for use at large scale emergencies. They are kind of a modern equivalent of the early civil defense emergency units found in across the U.S. in the 40's- 60's. I know Mike can explain better.

Mike and Spaloo talk about this and explain OES in this thread.

o an other question about floodlights, is it possible to make them less bright?
I mean when you use just 2 or maybe one floodlight you can't see it anymore

example: user posted image

I guess the real question here is wether its possible to disable conflighting lightsources to add together, rather the brighter should overlap the less brighter, and not add to it. I find it pretty annoying.

Ok, I'll make them less bright.

that is sick!

[helljumper51]

yeah, that IS the la mod truck, but i modified it for my own use, but it still works the same

[Mrtucker555]

and the firefighters look nice too

[Hoppah]

Looks nice, although there aren't any hose connections on the other side of the truck. Isn't that irritating? And the hose connections on the back are positioned way too high. Most engine's don't even have hose conenctions on the back. Look: click here. Someone told me that that thing on the back is used to pump water from a hydrant to the engine. Although I might be wrong.
