The new lightbar looks fantastic! I was really hoping you would do something like this, makes the LAPD car a bit more unique from the other ones. Really excited for the next release now.

I hope from now on everyone will abide to these simple rules. I hate it when hard-working, talented people have to threaten to leave because a few kids act like spoiled ungrateful brats.
If you really consider to stop modding because of some whining kids, maybe the internet is the wrong place for you. There are way too much of them here
The "rules" you stated aren't rules to me - I think of them as basic standards for human communication, or at least they should be.
But, just because some people (like me) state that they don't like a change in the mod does not mean that they don't appreciate the work at all. At such a point, more detailed criticism than "well I don't like it, looks strange" is not possible - you know, you see something you don't like, although you cannot really name what you don't like.
This is not "whining" or "complaining", but telling somebody what you like or don't like about a work he or she makes available to the public with the intent of letting other people enjoy it.
And especially if you have a forum on the net and a topic on it called "central suggestions", you should await positive AND negative responses on what you do - if you do not want to read such stuff, call it "The praising topic"

personally, I don't give a rats ass about what ppl say about my stuff I make. You should feel the same way Hoppah, make what you thing is realistic and stick to it... Thats what i'm doing with my mod, and if anyone wants to complain about anything... I might fix something in a later release and I also might not. If they are not happy about that, then they can f*** off.

Well, instead of whining and whining about whining, why dont we all give hoppah some positive feedback.
I'll go first.
First of all, LA Mod is one of the greatest EM4 mods out there, if not the best. Hoppah has made great work on making a fairly unique mod, and keeping it different from the other great mods. The new textures on many of the units in 1.5 did a huge change. I really love it. The charger is enough to write a paragraph consisting only of "<3"'s. I love the amount of units in your mod, though they might cause some problems on slower pcs, its really not any issue for me. They really makes setting up scenes alot more fun, and they enhance the gameplay greatly.
I really admire the time you have put in the mod, I've glanced at the scripts and models, and I really cant see how anyone has the time and patience to write all the scripts and do all the modeling and textureing, at least alone.
I'm really looking forward to the future releases of the LAMOD. I check the forums everyday for updates, and everytime there is one, I get more or less blown away.
Dont be shy now, write some positive feedback for Hoppah, the allmighty creator of LAMOD!

Hoppah,
My wife bought emergency 4 for me when I came to visit her in Germany, because I told her I wanted to get this game. I bought EM4 because I know you were working on a mod for the game.
Ever time you release the mod I think there not much more you can do make it better. For example when version 1.4 came out I thought that there was no more room to make it better. But 1.5 proved that wrong.
I hope there be a future versions.

Just a though hoppah but since you seem to get alot of repeat requests/suggestions how about pinning a thread that contains the ideas you have rejected. A mod i play for C&C Generals: Zero Hour does this. It helps lower the number of repeats (though there will always be people who run into the road without looking if you get my meaning) and helps with quick and easy searches.
As to the other subjects, as someone who is around modders/content creators often, the response you gave is far too common. I hate to see people with talent stop making creations because they feel unappreciated. If you allow one or two people to knock you down then you care too much for your public and not enough for your enjoyment. The biggest reason to make this mod is so that you can spend 3, 4 or however many hours playing and having fun. Because when it comes down to it, your giving up your free time to do it so if you feel your time is better spent somewhere else then I say, enjoy yourself, but i would be sad to see you go.
All in All you probably have the most popular mod for EM4 and the number of regular posters here barely compares to the number of people who downloaded, played, enjoyed, but never logged into the forums (can't imagine why ) so keep on modding and i leave you with these quotes:
"Your talent determines what you can do. Your motivation determines how much you are willing to do. Your attitude determines how well you do it."
"No one can control your attitude but you. Yet too often we let other people or external circumstances determine how we feel."

Enough... Simple enough there is nothing wrong with constructive critisism, if it is a very significant issue, but do not pick on someone's mod because they have the light pattern wrong or you do not like a particular addon they decided to put into their mod. After all, it seems most of these mods out there are WIP but they look like they are gonna have a ton of vehicles so if you do not like a particular one, do not use it. Simple imo.... I know how it feels to put a great deal of work into things and have people pick at them to the point where you just wanna say "I'm done" because you cannot satisfy everyone.
I give hoop alotta credit for actually releasing his mod for one, and evolving it, there is always going to be this void between those who want realism and those who want fun entertaining gameplay... You as a modder cannot win in the end. I hope this puts and end to this, because several of the modders spoke their peace and I agree with them...
Take care, let it go..

Why do I get so much negative feedback EVERY TIME I make something realistic?
People are complaining about the white roof of the red ambulance, the silver roofs of the fire apparatus, too few fire stations, and now the lightbar? What's next? Sometimes, I think I should stop modding, leave this forum and never come back again.
That is because you can't please everyone in this world. I for one love that everything is realistic. That is what THIS MOD is about.
You do AWESOME work Hoppah and I truely appreciate it.

Well I did not see anyone laugh.
Just wonder would be ok to make such comments about something you worked hard on.

Oh sorry, they do look similar though, and they both look funny
.Also, I though the pepsi logo remark was funny. And it wasnt even negative feedback on the mod, it was ment for the lightbar itself.

I for one think it's realistic. If it's used by the LAPD and SD its not hoppah's fault they chose a rather odd looking lightbar. Hoppah's version looks spot on to me

The realism is probably what I like most about LA mod. Obviously there are some things that need to be compromised because of gameplay, but keeping the units as realistic as possible gives the game a great feel and especially interesting.
