Since I'm still saving for my first car, I drive my dad's Renault Megane 1.5 dCi Extreme Grandtour. Not exactly the car I'm looking for though in the future. O how I envy you Americans for driving those beautiful and mean machines...

This is fantastic news! Although the new lighting updates are great, it's the realistic siren control that has me in awe. I've been waiting for something like that for ages. Can't wait for the father of GTA IV police modding to make his comeback!

Not a day goes by without me checking this website. It has become a part of my life, really. I've been part of this amazing community since 2011 and it has come a long way since. It's heartwarming to see people help eachother out, uploading mods completely free, staff members who dedicate huge parts of their free time keeping this community alive at no cost whatsoever,...This community proves to me that there is still good in humanity despite the horrific acts men are capable of as I have witnessed myself. Not in a million years would I have guessed there were so many other like-minded people out there. It certainly made me more resolved in achieving my lifelong dream of becoming a law enforcement officer.

Good day to you all. Recently, I bought the ARMA III Alpha on Steam. Having played Arma II and Arma II Operation Arrowhead for countless of hours, it was only logical that I'd buy the alpha of one of the most anticipated PC games of 2013. For those of you that don't know the ARMA series (for whatever reason that may be), ARMA III is the latest installment in Bohemia Interactive's popular tactical shooter/military simulator that is scheduled for a Q3 release. For more information on the series, please check Bohemia Interactive's official website (http://www.bistudio.com/) or the ARMA 3 official website (http://www.arma3.com/). Now for the most important part: "While the Arma 3 Alpha leads Steam’s Top Sellers chart since launch, Bohemia Interactive today also made a free invite-only variant available. The Arma 3 Alpha Lite is a limited version of the Arma 3 Alpha – providing people with the opportunity to try out the singleplayer showcase missions, a selection of weapons and vehicles, and the scenario editor. Unlike the regular Arma 3 Alpha, the Arma 3 Alpha Lite does not feature a multiplayer component or modding support, and does not include access to the Arma 3 Beta and complete game later on. To participate in the Alpha Lite, people need to be invited by those who have purchased the regular Arma 3 Alpha. The Arma 3 Alpha Lite will be discontinued on June 18th, 2013." Having bought the Alpha, I too received 3 Alpha Lite invites which I am prepared to give away for free to anyone interested. Although the Alpha lite does not have multiplayer and modding support, it may provide people with a free first look at the game. The only thing you need to do to compete is send me a PM with the following information: - Steam account - Previously played Arma II or not? (Not just DayZ) If so, please elaborate. To ensure that everyone gets an equal chance, I will randomly pick 3 users out of all the PM's after exactly 24 hours. After that, PM's regarding this giveaway will no longer be viewed. If, after 24 hours, no interest is shown into this giveaway, no harm done. Please keep in mind that users with previous Arma experience will receive higher priority. In my humble opinion, this is only logical. The three winners will be notified by PM. Good luck to you all. Update (8.15PM): The 24 hours during which you could participate in this giveaway are now over. I will be picking the 3 winners shortly and will notify them by PM. To those still interested in the ARMA III alpha lite, user "Knownwolf30" replied to this topic, stating he still has 2 invites left. Update: user "Darkangel" will be giving away 1 Arma III alpha lite invite to one lucky person. All you have to do is comment on his video. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_MiVG1Eyq0&feature=player_embedded) Update: the three winners have been notified and the Alpha lites have been sent. Thank you for participating! P.S. If anyone is still interested in obtaining an alpha lite, Bohemia Interactive has provided Armaholic with 500 alpha lite invites. More information on how to participate can be found here: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=19396

Amazing work yet again Abraxas. Your work is one of the reasons why I still pull my GTA IV copy from under the dust from time to time.

Well, Ncsflorida made a Liberty Sheriff Pack which, in my opinion, is one of the best skin packs out there regarding realism and variety. I use it quite regularly. "Based off of St. Lucie and Hillsborough County, Florida Sheriff cars. CVPI - FTO (Field Training Officer), Supervisor, Patrol, DUI, Drug Enforcement, & K9 Unit. Trailblazer - FTO (Field Training Officer), Supervisor, Patrol, Drug Enforcement, & K9 Unit. Tahoe - FTO (Field Training Officer), Supervisor, Patrol, Drug Enforcement, & K9 Unit. Charger - Standard and D.A.R.E Unit. Impala - Standard Taurus - Standard Carbon E7 - Standard 2006 Suburban - Standard Also includes uniforms based off of Hillsborough County Sheriff (As seen in picture). CVPI, Tahoe, & Charger Includes window templates." http://gtapolicemods.com/showthread.php?1012-Liberty-Sheriff-Pack-by-ncsflorida&s=b015074f216ee2ec72e19e9de9c2f457

Congratulations! Hopefully, I'll be able to fulfill my dream as well, October this year.

It's terrible to wake up and hear the news that yet another officer has fallen to this maniac...

Indeed. That forested area makes this kind of situation even more difficult for officers.

Live Update: Dorner has been sighted in Big Bear, California, and a gun battle is underway. Two officers are down at the moment. You can watch live here: http://losangeles.cbslocal.com/live-video/ Live police scanner audio can be listened to here:http://www.radioreference.com/apps/audio/?feedId=13038 Hopefully, this situation can be resolved without further victims.

After reading the entire situation, it does indeed appear that the LAPD plays a big part in this. Nonetheless, his actions are despicable and in no way justified. Corruption is a disease which, unfortunately, will never be completely eradicated. Just two days ago, several officers of the Miami-Dade police department were fired for ignoring emergency calls. The officer was just drinking coffee all day, with his supervisor nonetheless, just ignoring all emergency calls that came over the radio. How one could ignore a choking infant on the floor is beyond me... http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/02/05/miami-dade-police-squad-caught-kendall_n_2621924.html?utm_hp_ref=mostpopular And it isn't just the US, it's everywhere. The thing is, supervisors and FTO's are vital in preventing this kind of situations. An FTO, in a way, defines what kind of police officer you'll become and which attitudes you'll develop towards crime and corruption. In return, you'll teach those values yourself to other rookies and so on.

Small update: Police Shoot Innocent People In Ex-Cop Manhunt "Los Angeles police say officers guarding a target mentioned in an ex-officer’s manifesto shot and wounded two people in Torrance who were in a pickup Thursday.The shooting occurred around 5:15 a.m. when a patrol assigned to a protective detail identified a truck similar to that of the suspect’s. Two people suffered gunshot wounds and are listed in minor and stable condition." Source: http://losangeles.cbslocal.com/2013/02/07/la-police-shoot-innocent-people-in-ex-cop-manhunt/ I can imagine officers are extremely jittery right now since every man in a uniform is a potential target, according to his manifest. The LAPD has labelled him as a "domestic terrorist".

Indeed, I'm flabbergasted as well. CHP seems to have issued a statewide "blue alert" so multiple agencies are all looking for him. Also, Fox news stated that officers are advised not to partol on their own: "Local police are taking an abundance of caution. Corona police have suspended its motorcycle patrol and all officers are teamed up with partners. Btw, that is one big guy:

Thought I should mention this: "A multi-agency manhunt is under way in California after police say the former Los Angeles police officer suspected in the murders of a college basketball coach and her fiancé last weekend is following through on his vow to kill police officers after he opened fire Wednesday night on three police officers, killing one. Dorner posted an online manifesto that warned, "I will bring unconventional and asymmetrical warfare to those in LAPD uniform whether on or off duty." The first shooting Wednesday night occurred in the city of Corona and involved two LAPD officers working to provide security detail to a person named on the manifesto, police said. One officer was grazed in the head. The LAPD's elite Metropolitan squad was sent to protect others mentioned in Dorner's manifesto, KTTV.com reported. Later, two officers on routine patrol in the neighboring city of Riverside were ambushed in their patrol car at a stop light, said Riverside Lt. Guy Toussaint. One Riverside officer died and the other was in surgery. The Riverside officers shot overnight were not actively looking for Dorner, authorities said.Police don't know where Dorner is, but think he left the area, Toussaint said. A badge and identification belonging to Dorner have been found in a San Diego airport. Police said the items were turned in to police at 2:27 a.m. Thursday but he does not know when they were found. ..."

To be killed by a fellow officer is just appalling. I hope this maniac can be stopped in time before he makes more victims.

Sounds more like a telephone to me. Who would recognise that as an emergency vehicle approaching? Good job nonetheless. Nice to see some other sirens than the touchmaster being made.

Sorry I didn't reply earlier, I've been busy with studying for my exams. There are lots of pictures on the internet. Just type in Lenco bearcat sheriff and you'll find plenty. I'm not lookin for a specific skin, just a green Lenco Bearcat with something like "Liberty County Sheriff" on it. @Securitasguard: that's indeed what I'm looking for more or less.

No worries, at least you tried.
