**There is a lighting issue on the tops of the firetrucks at night. Some body panels will light up with sirens, then get extremely dark. I have run lots of tests and have not come to any specific conclusion as to why this is happening. I've also noticed the same issues on the default SimCity firetrucks. The white fire truck seems mostly immune to these issues, which is strange. My theory is an issue with the flashing lights being too low on the truck, interfering with the roof geometry and causing major shadowing. I have a few ideas I would like to try, but they will have to wait until offline mode is released. Until then, I apologize for the issues. I will continue looking for a solution in the meantime!**

 

 

Another big request I got from you guys was a new firetruck. This should add some extra flair to your fire services. If you notice any problems, please report them in the comments and I will look at the issues as soon as possible. Be looking for more mods like this very soon! Thanks for your support. Happy modding  :)

Should stretch out the body and put a second set of wheels on it and a ladder. That would be good for the large station.large_L44.jpg

heh nice work, here is one for the station:

 

Hey DrWatson,

 

One truck at a time. When the ladder truck is finished, I will release it as a separate mod and will start on a truck similar to this. I really like these, but I only know of them used in airports. Any info on residential use of these style trucks? Thanks!

Way cool idea additions. However the demo man cars kinda already exists with CoT, but I like what your coming up with.

Ooh! The Canadian style or the Yellow style... grr, I can't choose! They're both so pretty! >.<

 

If you want to put out a real fire you need the Australian one. :P

 

Thanks for the extra textures Parker. :)
