Nice.  Can't wait to make sure I plug plate-checker into it, at the least.

​It's not how long it takes to put a model into the game, it's how long it will take for the coders/script modders to write the tools for the game engine so that the vehicle modders can begin work.

I'm sure many of our active members will know that profile lists are quite a common occurrence here, and very rarely have we ever stepped in when it comes to determining what we can and can't allow. That has had to change over the past few days due to some recent events, and it's best to let everyone know about it now before we come knocking.

First, I'd like to state that we have no intention on getting rid of profile lists completely. They're a great way for members to express themselves and thank other members who've helped them or who have been good friends over time.

However, we have to address a specific type of list - the "abusive list" for lack of a better term. Some may remember a few months ago, there was an isolated incident where a member drafted a list containing the names of a dozen or so members and wrote abusive remarks about them. As this was an isolated incident, it was removed, and that was that. Unfortunately, a similar event has occurred again, and the trend doesn't show any sign of abating so we've had to address the issue formally.

We want members to be able to express themselves on their profiles. We can't however allow lists that abuse, slander, or otherwise degrade other members. That goes against the direction we want this site to go in, and it's something we simply can't tolerate. Having abusive profile lists only spreads discontent between the members involved and allows any personal problems to escalate farther than they otherwise could. Not only that, but anyone visiting a profile containing an abusive list may develop the wrong impression toward certain members because of the list. As such, any profile lists of that nature that we come across will be removed and as with any incident of abuse, proper action will be taken.

I must stress that this doesn't mean we're prohibiting any list that isn't "positive." We see no issues with having a list of people someone doesn't like; there just can't be any abuse, slander, or other remarks of that nature. Having a list entitled "people I don't like" is fine, but having a list saying "these people are all idiots" is not.  We feel this is an acceptable balance between prohibiting degrading remarks and allowing members to express themselves.

This may be a significant restriction for profiles (and probably disliked by some), but there's really no other option. No civilised forum should allow members to spread crude remarks about others.  If we allowed abusive lists, we'd be saying it's okay to label and degrade other members on profiles.  That simply isn't acceptable.  Our Community Guidelines will be updated accordingly to reflect this change as well.

The original Non-ELS Collection thread was a big mess, with random cars scattered all over the place in it.  I've taken every single link from that whole thread and I'm creating a new, more organized one.  I removed all links to sites that don't exist anymore, any of those weird Russian sites, and any links to potentially stolen vehicles.  Below I have the authors, lightbars (if available), livery types (police, FBI, NYPD, etc) and the links:

I got as many non-ELS cars as I could. If any links are broken, or you suspect a linked vehicle was stolen, please make a post below and I'll fix it. Also, if there are any cars I missed (I know there are), please make sure to tell me!

So I've been working on a lot of my many ped projects. Each one has components that will be used in other projects (ie; heads, textures, etc), so it's been hard to focus on one project and finish, rather then work on all of them at once. This one is a Liberty County Sheriff Ped model with a Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department uniform, but for those that do not like the uniform don't worry because I will be including other textures (blue,green, white, etc) to change the color of the uniform. Also I'll have 3 different styles for the short/long sleeve upper meshes (4 if you guys want me to include a model without the shoulder mic, although you could probably just delete that section of the texture to make it invisible I'll have to test). The screenshot I've included is the "cross chest" model. Another will have the shoulder mic on the shoulder and the final model will have a behind the back look. The release will also include long sleeve, jacket, rain coat, traffic vest, etc., but the short sleeve version has been the most time consuming (and is far from being done). As you can see from the screenshot below I'm still working on the textures (very important feature) so don't freak out because the colors don't blend I can assure you it will change for the final release. The model will be designed to encompass as many different sheriff department agencies as possible and not be specific to any specific one (ie; LASD), which will be accomplished through easy texture edits. Again I have to stress this is far from being done just a sneak peak and something for you guys to look forward to being released sometime in the near future.

Model Overview
New Head Models/Faces Improved shoulder patches NYPD badge removed replaced with six point badge (final will probably have other style badges) New improved textures Added shoulder mic Duty belt includes Gun/holster, Handcuff Pouch, OC, Double Ammo Pouch, ASP, Portable Radio, Latex Glove Pouch, Surefire Flashlight Upper/Lower models reshaped (physically fit officers) Short sleeve, Long sleeve, Jacket (include 2 textures including a high viz texture for highway/accidents, etc), Rain Coat (will also include the high viz texture as well as a standard texture), Traffic Vest models
