Midmounts have always been possible.. go take alook at the NY Mod

If you know how.

[jgreene]

Mid-mount are truly possible since it was already featured on NYMod. But I'm wondering if Hoppah could help those guys(NYMod) on adding a bit more details on their rescue units.

Im pretty sure that the only thing we have seen from the NY mod is a picture of the model. Here we have in game pictures and video of a working mid mount.

Wow, that looks amazing. I'm guessing the range on the water cannon is the same as the regular ladder?

I kept this secret until I made it working, but I managed to make a tiller!
It has it's flaws as explained in many topics before. The model is highly detailed. It has about 8100 polygons including the 6 wheels and all other parts belonging to the vehicle. Ingame, it works pretty well. There are a couple of points I'd like to mention:

- The trailer has no physics when it's not installed and attached to the tractor.
- The ladder can't reach windows. For now, you can only use it to extinguish fires.
- Because of the long size, the trailer makes weird swings when it takes a turn.
- The trailer logic created by Bass-ti, might be buggy on slower computers

The tiller will be a new vehicle', so it doesn't replace the tower in the Los Angeles Mod. Because of the disadvantages explained above the tiller won't spawn in the big fire station for default, but I might make it able to park on the same spot as the tower.

The reason I made it is because I found a way to spawn the trailer on the tractor when it arrives on the map after being send using the menu. The cool looks makes it a great addition to the mod. The tiller will be the only new addition to v1.9 besides the new map. I hope it's worth it.

Got my new videocard like 2 weeks ago. Better talk Dutch, because I have no idea what you mean.

You got a point then. It looks were having a competition between the two.

Right.... competition between a mod that has been released almost 3 years ago and a mod which has just been started.

Hoppah, I personally think that 16tons should just hire you to develop any other game in the emergency series they make. Second, on the whole "the tiller and freeplay map will be the only new additions to 1.9" thing, I would say a whole new map and a vehicle that's been thought impossible until now is pretty good for a mod update. You are a beast Hoppah. Quick question though, what made you go with the pierce style tractor rather than the american lafrance ones which seem to be in use more in LA?

[erfd]

A nice 4 days before birth day present!

[jsutton]

Great Job Hoppah, can't wait to see it in game.

[PFAexplorer]

Now hoppah i have two questions for you, is the tiller able to be called?

Now hoppah i have two questions for you, is the tiller able to be called by a bc or ems capt? and in the future will it be possible to say put the tiller in one station and the tower in the other?
