On the other side, he never mentioned he was making a tiller, and he bounced it to us in one, rude announcement.

I was rude?

You know what would be rude? If I'd trash the new map and start over again because I didn't like the layout.

[Maffegozer]

if you do that, i will never play LA mod again, xD...
Joking.

You wouldn't!!!!.......................you like the layout, right?

BTW: i like station 2's design

[danny96]

will have la mod besides new map, old missions and lafd ladder truck new models? new police vehicles? please no warnings...

[Hoppah]

Besides the LAFD Tiller, there will be no other new playable units in v1.9. The new map has a bunch of new objects and buildings though. And don't forgot the new civilian cars. Why are you so scared of warnings? It's not like you will get beaten up, because you misbehaved.

[Maffegozer]

Hahahah Shawn!

[Andrew]

Are the new civilian cars hi-poly and highly detailed like the units ?

[Xplorer4x4]

Last I checked the current models were all low polly.

[Hoppah]

The average new civilian car has more polygons than the original EM4 models. It's not that bad though. But if people experience lag with the new cars, I can always write a VERY SIMPLE tutorial to disable ALL new cars. Deal?

[Andrew]

Ok thanks Hoppah, i hope my computer won't lag

[Xplorer4x4]

^they may have more polys but there still not considered high polygon correct?

[nycguy555666]

Hey hoppah do u have a chevy impala for the civvilan car

[Newfoundking]

Yes he does, 2007 Chevrolet Impala

[nycguy555666]

ya that would be cool to make one of these



just putting it out there not a suggestion or makin people do it

[Hoppah]

It's what YOU consider high polygon. Basically, for this game, vehicles don't need that many polygons. A 10.000 polygon Ford Crown Victoria is way too detailed for this game, because this game is not designed (or in my words; 'optimized') for that. Anyway, you can't compare a simple vehicle like that with a fire engine which needs much more details. More details means more polygons. I don't think you need to worry that much. In my opinion, bigger textures require more from a computer than a vehicle with a little more added polygons than usual. Most new civilian vehicles in the LA Mod have 512x512 textures instead of 1024x1024. Remember, that's FOUR times as small. Because some of the new civilian vehicles are not mapped that well, I can't make most textures smaller than 512x512. Just wait and see it yourself when v1.9 is out.

@ nycguy555666:
There won't be a LAPD Chevrolet Impala in the mod, unless you want to get rid of the Ford Crown Victoria or the Dodge Charger or any other PD vehicle. If I'm not wrong. there is a submod somewhere on this forum which adds a LAPD Chevrolet Impala though.

hey hoppah have you had any down time to drink a cold beer and play the new map?

Also people you can always turn one of the new civil cars into a playable unit

Yeah, right now actually. Although I am not playing the map.
The summer holidays are not over yet.

Precisely what I was aiming for. Low/high polygons as far as the game is concerned/handle.

Anyway, you can't compare a simple vehicle like that with a fire engine which needs much more details. More details means more polygons. I don't think you need to worry that much.

I wasnt that worried about it, just seeing if I was right None the less, yes I can completely understand where your coming from, and that was a good idea down sizing the textures for the civi cars.

Hoppah, are you looking for testers for 1.9 yet?
