Well for starters the white-over-red paint scheme on RAs is not used anymore. Only the most recent RA purchase has the LED bars and square grille. I believe all the BCs got new Suburbans. RA 51 also needs a makeover, it needs a new skin and the model needs to be changed to the ALS RA model with the cab roof mounted lightbar.

The HR model is not out of date, all it needs is a few lights.

Actually, most of the fire vehicles need lights, mostly just side flashers and a few rear flashers.

Only a handful of BC's got the new suburbans.

Not anymore. From what I have been able to document here is a list of all BCs in the new suburbans:
NEW BC:
1
2
7
10
12
14
17

Now I cant recall which one, but one got banged up pretty good when being pulled from a mud slide. Theres speculation when the heavy rescue pulled it out of the sinkhole, it did more harm then good. All in all I think thats close to half of the BCs in the city having new BCs.

Wow, I apologize. That is certainly more than I was first aware of.

Battalion 2 was pulled out of the mud.

Xplorer, I think B4 and B13 got new suburbans also because both EM4 and EM13 are running in old BC rigs.
EM4
EM13

[Xplorer4x4]

Have you found any photos of B4 and B13 in the new suburbans? EM4 and 13 may have got had me downs from the other BCs.

This has nothing to do with the LA Mod. As soon as you lear to follow directions, and post in the right place, I might actually tell you what to do.

[Thumper]

this has everything to do with the LA MOD as it is the LA MOD 4X4 so please answer my problem and quit treating people like kids.

Where should I start? The fact you said it yourself, LA MOD 4X4, not LA MOD. The fact that the LA Mod 4x4 is a whole other project? It was based on the LA Mod but the changes were so significant, that it is no longer considered LA Mod related. It is related to the LA Mod 4x4 project. I havent quite explained that to you, but none the less I have instructed you about 3 times now to post in the submod topic. Instead, what do you do? You post in the general LA Mod discussion thread. You dont even bother to post in the LA Mod bugs thread just a few posts down from this. So once again not only do you not post in the submod thread, you post in a topic for discussing the LA Mod in general, and not for LA Mod bugs. It would have still been the wrong place, but atleast it would have been in the bug report thread since you believe this is LA Mod and 4x4 Mod related.

Now furthermore, the LA Mod is packaged as an EXE installer. The 4x4 mod is packaged as a e4mod file which not only contains the original LA Mod files, but also contains new files and many changes to the original LA Mod. It sounds like your problem is in relation to the e4mod file.

You ask not to be treated like a kid. Well do not act like a kid. Being new here, and refusing to follow instructions are to entirely different things. Being new does not excuse the fact you refuse to listen when some one tries to point you to the correct topic numerous times over and over. At that point it just shows you refuse to read and follow instructions, so, seeing as I have told you three times or more where to post, and you disregard, what is the point in trying to help you fix the problem? If you have not listened the past 3 or more times, why would you suddenly listen now?

[Newfoundking]

Well if you click continue and it still doens't work, it's time to update. 1.5 and 1.8 are a long time ago, and they are not supported, so if you're missing a script more than likely you won't be able to get that script back unless you know someone with that verison..

[brandweeramersfoort]

I cant download la mod 2.0 because there was a link broke they reported..

Some one can give me another link??

[Hoppah]

I'm thinking about re-releasing v2.0 and its patch as one combined package to make it easier to install the whole mod. I might add a few features too. I was thinking about ability to repair vehicles at fire stations from the NYC mod. Any other suggestions?

I know there's an updated LAX RA skin bouncing around out there as well as an updated crash tender skin. Contact Xplorer for more info.

[erfd]

Maybe add the tow commands?

[Hoppah]

You mean the tow commands from the New York mod by MikeyPI? I personally made that script, but it would make the LA Mod even more easier than it already is. Besides that, I'd like to keep some things in the NY Mod only to make sure the mod will not feel like a 1 on 1 copy of the LA Mod (or the other way around).

Practical Ideas:
Just a thought, could you change the FF on the tiller ladder to an invisible object? He seems disproportionate and weird a lot of the time. I think it would look better with just a pipe up on the extended ladder.

Also, maybe some more events on the map?

That's the easier things i can think of implementing.

Less Pratical:
I'd love to see the MCU replaced with the semi-trucks that are used.

A reset command for the equipment trailers

More practical uses for the equipment trailers

Reskin the THW copter to Air 5 and replace the current medical copter.

The LAFD Field Mechanic has a truck similar to the HES, it would be cool if it drove in to repair trucks at the station.

A Rehab Air Tender


Honestly though, I love everything you've ever done and I'm more than content the way it is now.

Having a repair center/garage for all Fire, EMS, Police units would be great.

Suggestions:
Maybe you can couple the tiller and an engine into a light force group that will travel as one, just like how the FDNY Haz-mat travels with the equipment truck in your NY Mod. Just throwing this idea up in the air; I know you want to keep some unique features just for the NY Mod.

Changing the BLS ambulance color scheme to all red, and adding 800 or 900 designation to distinguish it from ALS ambulances.

Other than cosmetic changes (changing to latest vehicle models, revamping lighting), I don't think there is anything else to add to this Mod. You did a pretty good job the first time around.

[Texas_DPS]

i dont think there will be any additions to the LA Mod anymore.

[Newfoundking]

I think Hoppah was thinking about adding some scripts we did in the NY mod to the LA mod, but I'm pretty sure it's not being revived, since he retired for a reason, and starting so that it's getting totally updated would require restarting the mod almost

Minor Cosmetic changes take ages
