Nice! I can't wait for 1.4. I'm just saying like don't yell or anything but would it be possible to switch the lightbars on the LAPD cars to the ones they use now? They use Federal Signal Arjent's and I think that would be a nice touch. Thanks!
Only if you were willing to model the lightbar

Has anyone ever offered to help you on the english language bits. I was playing through the original EM4 missions with LAMod installed, and some of the text doesn't translate well (like hints.xml -- 911FR comes with a hints.xml in english now of course, so you might be able to use it?)
I went through and edited infotexts.xml for my own use, and plan to do more, but I'd never distribute them without your permission.
Would be nice to have it polished up for your next version, it'd make a great mod even better!
Its not a big deal or anything, just offering some help.

First I want to say that your LA Mods are FANTASTIC. I've played a lot of mods for dfferent games, and yours improves the original games the most! Both Em3 and Em4/911 are much better with La Mod! Thank you for your work.

I already added the 911FR files to my mod and the mission patch for v1.4. About infotexts.xml, you can use an attachment to upload it here, so I can take a look at it and maybe add it to the mod.

Nice lightbars, but I am not 100% certain ALL LAPD cars be fitted with those lightbars. Maybe the newer patrol cars only? If someone can confirm they will replace the MX7000 lightbars too I will change them. It is difficult to find information about that.

It's unlikely that a police dept would spend money to buy new lightbars to be fitted on old cruisers. My guess is that cruisers that use the MX7000 (or any other kind of lightbar) will keep it until they're retired.

The barn is a new model. The smoke is much darker (changed it with the particle editor) too, to make it look better. I am using the map from mission 16 (fire at open air concert) for this mission.
Played a test round too. I needed 28 fire fighters with a hose connected on 7 fire engine's and 3 water tenders to extinguish the barn only, so this one will be quite hard.
I still need to make the drug dealers and owners which must be taken into custody too, so the mission isn't finished yet.
Hope you like it,
Hoppah

It looks good! What are the units you can use in this mission? can you use the airplane and LAX crashtender?
LAX crashtender can be used if you want, but I will disable the airplane, because that will make the mission too easy.

Tomato, don't give him ideas!! He'll pack the place with trees!
It kind of defeats the purpose if he tells us everything, including whether or not the owners of the barn would be armed (DON'T TELL US!!)

I was out in LA on tour (West Hollywood area & Santa Monica and other areas of LA) 2 months ago, i remember now. Seeing about 80% of West Hollywood & S.M area PD cars had'em... but around the other general areas of LA (Compton to Norwalk, etc) it was a 50% thing 50%. Also LB and HB (Long Beach and Huntington Beach) i remember specifically all PD cars had the newer model.... but i suggest, if you do have the time with the upgrade (if its not to much time :23_31_4: consuming from your other projects) just go for the upgrade. Since by early 08 and possibly later in the year most of the general population of the fleet vehicles are due to be retired and new ones will be replacing and equipped with the newer light bars...
Thats my two cents....
