He's talking about the misson where you need to rescue the people from the polar station (firsy mssion where you need to buy the airplane). In order to save one of the wounded you need to kill some polar bears who are attacking him.

Ok, not a request this time... I decided to use my time today to fulfill a request from this list. I've created a Los Angeles County engine skin using Hoppahs engine 7... I think it looks pretty good I'll post pictures if requested... So Hoppah if you want the skin for the mod, you're welcome to have it. (it's practically your original skin just with the new symbols and stripe, but with the red roof.

On a side note I'm not giving this out tto the public so please don't request the file unless your Hoppah, or MikesPhotos( since he can confirm it's up to snuff)

I haven't seen the model yet, but you do know that LACoFD has diamond plate roofs too right? You can see a top view of LACoFD Engine 125 here and LACoFD E51 here

The main visual differences between the LA City and County rigs are the two reel lines above the pump panel, KME nose, and the paint scheme.

I have two version one with the diamond roof from 1.4 and one with it from 1.5, both have hi viz. I also don't have the mod files to remove the boxes from the roof, so I knew that would look wrong. I'll post photos once I get the second one in game later tonight....They're at least a starting point for LACoFD Engine.. and here are some pics, it's my first attempt at skinning and I did it with paint so the skins ain't great, also not how different it does look compared to a city engine.

* EDIT:I have changed the number placement and added the FDNY commemoraion, so they both look like LACoFD E8*
anyways I'll let the topic get back on topic

Ok here's my latest suggestion, I know Hoppah isn't very keen on the Idea of adding more vehicles and personnel to the LA Mod, and most vehicles people request are simply reskins of othe units in the mods... so could there be some sort optional download to the LA mod consisting units, made by the community. It could include user submitted, and Hoppah approved skins ( for ex. the LACoFD Engine and very soon an AMR ambulance)and vehicles and also older unused models like the lev. Then people could simply download the file and insert the extra vehicles they want into the LA Mod. Feel free to completely shoot this down. I understand your need to protect your creations

People may change the mod to what they want. In case they made nice or cool I can allow them to release it.
The biggest problem: People don't want to spend time on releasing it as a small mod (only containing their changed files), like I do with my mission patch.
People want to release the whole mod with their changed stuff again and that's something I absolutely DO NOT want.

What I would like to see, is a presidential protection mission. Seeing how you have some FBI stuff on the go, they could act as secret service, even though their cars aren't Christmas trees:P That would be fun. I would like to see something along the lines of simply getting the limo, from one end of town to the other, might have to put up roadblocks, stop protesters, snipers, stuff like that. that would be plenty more fun than sending a convoy of police cars across town on a slow night during freeplay

Something like the mission in EM3. A hostage situation would also be cool, FBI would be a great thing that mission as they could negotiate.

Good idea, I was thinking of the same thing. Hoppah's models are outstanding - if we could reskin them, (and maybe Hoppah could help us out with making some small edits to the model itself to change light bars and other light placement), to be a local FD or PD and then release it to the community, I think it would be great. I would want to make sure Hoppah approved of each mod mod, so he ensures a high level of detail.

I have a small sugestion. As you may know and im sure mike does but LAPD Air Support is in the process of repainting all of there Astars (AS350s) to the traditional LAPD Black and White colors. I will include some more pictures as soon as my dad can get them but here is a video showing it.

I have seen their new color scheme, it looks similar to the patrol cars now which I was told that is what they were going for (thnx mikesphotos for showing me their repaint). Unfortunately, unlesss the helo is redone into the AS birdie I do not see the real need to reskin it and with the work needed to remodel the bird's rotor assembly I do not know if it is worth pursuing, yes the TV helo is pretty similar but in the end it can be better... For a limited replacement anyone could easilly throw the helo model from the TV chopper into the police prototype and have the same result as what you want hoppah to do.

Not a bad idea but like I said rotors are alot of work, hoppah can testify to that.

ive got an idea ensted of making asecond fire station why dont u just make the first one bigger so it could hold a ussar truck wild land truck and a heavy equipment squad. the only reson fr me sugesting this is that when there was a acident toyu could have the ussar truk respond and for medical calls you could have the heavy equipment squad respond. as for the wild land truk it speeks for it self. :1046275747_biggthumpup:

That's a good idea, but I think it's just as much work as adding a new fire station.
