not to sound stupid, but whats LAWA?

Los Angeles World Airports, the company that runs LAX (Los Angeles International), Van Nuys, and Ontario airports.

[station9emt/firefighter]

Brake light will be added. As for rear view window lights, the only vehicles with them will be FBI with its dual flasher, LAWA PD will have them added, slicktop will keep the rear arrow bar, unmarked will probably lose its arrow bar (cue whining ... now) and be modeled after the current LAPD unmarked configuration used by SWAT and other units which just has a dual flasher in the left rear corner of the window.

I might have forgotten one or two, but mostly, don't expect too much change in the lights.

... now thats wat i was talking bout. like in the movie SWAT... with the left corner lights... please...please have them LED... sniff sniff,. tell you the truth i would be happy to have that arrow bar taken off from there. it would give a better reason to use other units there.... would there be any possiblity to add the same undercover but a white one... just wondering.

to hoppah.
if i may ask were you received your LAPD crown vic skins. if you could send me that information not to make another LAPD mod.. but to look for arizona DPS, Phoenix police, and other skins.. thank you soo much.

Station9.

btw @ mikesphotos. i thank you for being patient with me. if you would like i have a few ideas and a few questions. if you want to you could send me a pm. but thank you for answering my questions and putting up with me.. lol

[Hoppah]

if i may ask were you received your LAPD crown vic skins.

Made them myself? Just like almost all other vehicles?

[station9emt/firefighter]

o....ok. thank you for your response then.

[Col. Ghost]

can't wait! also for news!

[Ami89E1234]

*GASP* he asked the forbidden question!!!!!

[station9emt/firefighter]

Lol i liked to do the forbidden things,as i know what u modders are like..... :1046276313_Up_to_something:

that was just....disturbing.. :1046275873_shakehead:

[Newfoundking]

Not sure if this should be in bugs or not, but there is the issue of the preview files for the vehicles with the new light bars. Such as the Crown vic with the argent, it is still shown as with the halagen lights. Now this isn't something that should be rushed to, but it is something worth noting. And where it is such a small thing to notice, you may have over looked this

[station9emt/firefighter]

i think that should be in bugs..... dunno tho

I just want to say thank you so much to Hoppah for investing so much time into LA Mod.

It's quite incredible that he spends so much of his own time doing this work - and seeks nothing in return.

Personally, I think it's astonishing.

Thank-you, Hoppah.

[Newfoundking]

Correct me if I am wrong but I read somewhere,(cant remember where) that 1.7 will have 3 new missions, or is it just 2? I know that there will be 2 for sure, and I thought I heard about a hidden third one. Also, could someone from the LA Mod team PM the objectives(starting ones) for the new missions, I am doing something for it, and that would make it alot easier. That is a secret though, maybe I'll tell the mod team tho

More news!

I have changed the skin of Mass Casualty Unit. It has the same colors as the Mobile Field Hospital now.
Because trailers are too buggy I kept the model I already had, so it's just a reskin to add a bit more realism. Picture:

Photo's of the Mobile Field Hospital: click and click

And I have changed the skin of the coroners. Picture:

Photo: click


The changed EMS (Emergency Medical Service) system:
Mikesphotos already revealed there will be a big change in the EMS system in my mod. Here is the full info:

The firefighters in the Los Angeles mod have been splitted up into 2 different qualifications.
The FF/EMT can stabilize and the FF/PM can heal persons.
Both kind of firefighters can use all equipment and both firefighters can use SCBA gear or a stretcher.
Besides the two qualifications, I have added an EMS Paramedic Captain. He can heal and call for additional vehicles.

Because the FF/EMT's have a basic medical training you will usually find them on fire apparatus like the fire engine's.
The FF/PM's can be found on the ambulances or as extra crew on the engine's and trucks.
Because the FF/PM's can heal they are part of the EMS group (or Ambulance group = white dots on minimap) and the FF/EMT's are part of the Fire Department group.
You can easily recognize the paramedics on the EMS logo in their unit picture.

What are the differences compared to previous versions of the Los Angeles Mod?
Besides some name changes, the FF/PM's have more similar clothing to the normal firefighters like in the previous versions.
They have a helmet and wear a yellow jacket now. All FF/PM's have the ability to use all equipment and they can get the SCBA gear.
The FF/EMT's have the abilty to get a stretcher now.
Because it is not possible to change person models, the firefighters with stretcher still wear navy blue pants and shirt.

The EMT bag which was carried by the paramedic is standard equipment of the FF/PM and can be dropped and get from vehicles now.
FF/PM's without the bag can still heal persons, but the EMT bag offers a small bonus to the healing process and is necessary to defibrillate persons.

Because there are 4 new person models and name and skin changes I have added a picture which summarizes the above text:


EMT = Emergency Medical Technician
PM = Paramedic
FF = Firefighter


The last part of this newpost is a small preview of the manual (for v1.7) I'm working on:

Hoppah, that is just incredible. The EMS system you created is just about spot-on realistic. One question, though. Are there going to be BLS ambulances and als ambulances?

Again, you do some great work. I can't wait until 1.7 comes out.

[davidotk]

wow hoppah thats amazi :1046275747_biggthumpup: ng !!! .... i love the mass casualty skin
and the battlalion chief´s name, mike LOL !

Yes, that's a small change I forgot to post.
The red ambulance will be the ALS Ambulance
The red/white one will be the BLS Ambulance

ALS = Advanced Life Support
BLS = Basic Life Support

The ALS ambulance will transport FF/PM's
The BLS ambulance will transport FF/EMT's

Hoppah.

[james23222000]

I take it the BLS ambulance is the basic ambulance? Though I watched LAPD Life on the Beat and I saw a basic ambulance respond to a shooting where somone had been shot 3 times in the chest area (he still survived). A fire engine did respond though.

I like the idea of this EMS system change. It means I don't have to have 4 FFs and 2 EMTS on each of my engines so it is music to my ears.

Looking forward to V1.7, great work so far Hoppah!
