Actually, since these were done for 1.9 there will be slight issues like commands may be a little off, or for some units like the foam tender wit the new model, it will overwrite those files, and give weird lights.. I'd advise waiting for 2.0

Chad, I recall you did an awesome job on the Hevy Rescue Crane in the late stages of Tony's Lights. Has this been changed at all?

Nope. Why?

[Xplorer4x4]

I never got around to updating the HRC lights, so I want sure if I would have to go back through the packs of yours I hadnt edited or not.

[C.F.D]

Merry Christmas to Everybody! I hope you get Nogg'ed!


Anyway, progress update:

I have changed the size and color of the Spotlight from LAPD Chopper, to a more realistic color...because the original one is white, now this one is more blueish as it looks the same from real life's color.

I have also dimmed some lights on the engines and Ambulances as per Madman's request. But i did not change the speed at all as its realistic. I also removed some front lights from E7 as i saw E7 on youtube, and i noticed that the White Light next to the Red Light is Wig/Wag, not LED, so i made that change.

I also added some "Blinky Lights" to the Battalion Chief, but it only activates when you activate the special command such as traffic re-direct. This is not based off real life but i wanted to keep something Original-Tony's Lights, as his were blinky lights and i wanted to keep something dedicated to him.

Some PD's Corner strobes are realistic color now, before it was white, and now its light blueish, as its based off real life again after studying on youtube and real life experience. Most Police Departments are changing to Whelen Hide a Way Strobes and it looks more brighter and better.

Video; Watch the Corner Strobes as you can notice its blueish.

The LAPD Charger, Slicktop and Marked Crown Vic has been updated. If you haven't seen the video of em, watch it here:



I also updated the Large Rescue Ambulance's Main Light bar to show off some cool LED patterns. I also edited some other units, a very minor change, so...

Will be released Hopefully this week or next week, and hopefully it'll work with 2.0 LA mod.

Great work

[Xplorer4x4]

The lights look good but why are you using NYPD units for references? Are you sure LAPD has done these upgrades?

BTW whats that Lil Wayne song, and which mixtape is it on?

EDIT: What about adding scene lighting to the Rear of the Ambulances? I know ALS has them, but cant recall is the BLS do.

[C.F.D]

Xplorer, these lights are not just for NYPD, but all over the states and Canada. My City PD uses them too. The Changes of corner strobes weren't made to any LAPD Units, just the Unmarked Units and LASD.

I'll check about those Scene lights.

looks amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There not used here, but thats not really my point. Its just that I would like to see some proof this is a common thing on LA units weather its LAPD,LASD,LAPP, or LAAP for that matter.

Ihave a Whelen hide a way kit on my vehicle and it gives off some what of a "blueish" tint, they are clear strobes i believe its just the light housing (on the vehicle) that gives it this tint. Most of the vehicle i've helped install hide away kits on (upto about 7 now) all have this "side-effect" from the light lenses. if its not a true blue, it more than likely has something to do with the light housing or a reflection coming off the light bulb for normal signaling and so on. Hopes this helps.

[Xplorer4x4]

Hopes this helps.

How would discussing the color of the light help in a discussion about if there used in LA?

[cletus]

[MikesPhotos]

why are we arguing about lights?

Because that is what the Blinky Light Brigade does.

[LACityFFengineCo287]

Thought of it. Your flash pattern on the re-director is off. It hit me yesterday, but, I was busy I'll see if I can get you a video.

Ahhh, Alrighty then.

[Xplorer4x4]

This might be useful for the Swat Heavy Rescue. It doesnt have dual level flashers in the side lights.

[lrr144]
