Just a question regarding the freeplay map. I hope that this hasn't been asked somewhere else. If it has, please point me there. What area of LA is the freeplay map based on. Is it just a conglomerate of various places around Los Angeles or is it a general area? If it's a general area, which LAFD Engine companies are in that area?
I ask this question because I'm trying to determine which engine companies to use for my update to the supervisor files.
This game has taken on a new meaning to "spending all my time" thanks to add of the realism added by modders and especially due to great deal of hardwork put in by Hoppah. Incredible amount of time and patience to deal with all of us. I don't know how he does it!
Freeplay map area is based on what part of Los Angeles?

I think that map is just styled for LA
So, what is it the fire fighters do? Do they wait a block away before going to the station to get the truck? Nope. 10 or 12 guys go into the Station, put their gear on, and 6 of them jump in the Pump. The rest, they stay in the building in case they need the Rescue. So, Pump 1 responds from 119 Bertie St to 119 Bertie St, but, they have to follow protocol. So, they drive around they block, and stage at the corner, waiting for police to clear the building they just left.

To save time, this map is not based on a real part of Los Angeles.

The bridge, pawn shop and the small apartments near the bridge are actually based on real buildings.
The bridge in the mod is based on this one: Google Maps

Is your name spray painted on the real life pawn shop building?

The bridge and everything take place in what looks kinda like East L.A, you can't really put everything together without some high rises x.x that would be a great addition, lol. Or throw in Union Station, because The tracks go next to the L.A river.

The game doesnt handle high-rises that well as the camera just cuts through them.

There are 100 or so stations in Los Angeles county. I'm trying to think what engine names I should use for the supervisor.
Maybe use the engines that get a majority of the calls or randomly select engine numbers?
Something like: Engine 11, engine 35, truck 50, batallion 1 respond for a structure fire...
Any suggestions? comments...
