True, but I liked the show to see what actually (somewhat.. bits and snippets) went on in training. There was definitely entertainment placed there (otherwise it would've been bone dry and no one would've watched it). But I did like seeing what went on, ignoring the "drama" placed in there. point A to point B thing, that's how all training works, even ADF. Without going into back stories, that's how both pop and some of my mates that have gone their own way and joined the defense force described it. I think the NSWPF does the same thing as the ADF, as in if you fail a segment, you don't fail and get kicked out, you back class, or defer if something comes up and you have to leave.

@WestTigersNRL1 I feel like... The CSU campus for Police training is in Goulburn?.. From what I've heard through word of mouth and from watching Recruits recently. You gotta have your Aquatic Life Saving Cert, Typing cert (that might actually mash in with the next one, or they mightve removed this req.) and they replaced the ATAR of xx / Cert 4 or higher in any field entry requirement with a pre-uni type course, forget the name, but that's basically what it is. You also need to hold your P2 license (perhaps be in your last year of P2) Don't do it if it's not something you're not willing to fail, the course is made to filter out people not fully serious about it. It goes for about eight months (I think), and I believe the first half is very physical. Not to deter you, but go in with a "I'll either come out a cop or in a body bag" attitude. Take my word with a grain of salt though, because some things might not be accurate. Their website is a pain in the ass to work, it's not real organised and all info is in different spots, not where it should be, all over the shop, but I feel most/all this info is on their website. I looked into it heaps, and realised that my psychological fear of water (nearly drowned as a child) would stop me in my tracks before even getting past the aquatic life saving certificate requirement.. Dream job hopes and dreams shattered. Yeah, citizenship takes something like five years of living there to acquire [claim you're a refugee you'll get citizenship quicker, lmao]. I feel like the FBI is more of an "invitation" to join, not a "apply here we'll take anyone" organisation. I don't know much about the US and FBI though. I don't find it too fascinating, Hollywood hypes the role. You're basically a glorified local detective, but at a Federal level. Exact same job and roles except higher profile cases.

Not too shabby, actually Well because I was so bored, and insecure with taking a photo of my real messy and cringey set up, I painted you a detailed diagram on paint. My set up... It err.. Probably needs work I'd like to wall mount my TV, but I need to ability to swivel it to where I sit when on the PS4. PC sits on my desk, mainly because A) if it sits on my floor, the desk is rool high up with no shelves down low, so cables won't reach B) I'm too lazy to get down low when I need to insert a disc or unplug/plug something in. If I could move the PS4 off the desk, I could move the TV over (or wall mount it, if there are mounts that can swivel {Finding it hard to look into the detail of your setup because it's a real tiny pic but I think that's a swivelly mount ya got there}) and PC to the right, or even off the desk too, and have the monitors central. I'd like a scenario where I have my two PC monitors in the middle like you have, so I can have two monitors next to eachother. Also so my desk wouldn't be so cluttered.

Speaking of second screens, has anyone seen a place selling cheap ish monitor brackets, I got no room on my desk so I either gotta have a second screen floating on the side or floating above my main monitor. I found some brackets but they were like $150+ for some reason.. Thought that was a bit steep for what it is, and that's probably more than I'll pay to get a tiny little second screen just to see utilities, teamspeak and whatever while playing games.

I was like... Hmm I'd say like 12/13 at that time I reckon. I was really new and casual to games, pretty much spent my time leisure fucking around on GTA, using cheat codes and going on mass killing spree's. Typical 12vie things. If it were ever to be fully remastered graphically, by R* or fans, I'd probably play through for the story and to finally get the fulfilling sense of accomplishment (which I lack because I keep buying games on steam sales and never completing them.... It's a viscous cycle please help)

Worst part of the fucking game, there was one so difficult, it was a timed one and your had to fly all over town, for the life of me I couldn't get it in time except once, and then.... My game corrupted when going into the shop normally (you get stuck inbetween his door and the over world, something then happened which corrupted your save and also you couldn't die to respawn outside..) So I had to start fresh. Fun fact never passed that hard ass mission since, so I begged dad to buy me a xb360 at the time so I could play GTA IV.. To this day I don't know how GTA SA really ends...

I'd give that a like if it weren't for the fact that you're sitting on 420 rep, good sir "Oh but I would..." Look, the Chinese are stealing our jobs, so I gotta come in and steal someone else's job. I'm sure you understand. "Slap a UI and Menu on it" was a term used very loosely, lmao. I'm not a complete jerk, I know these things take a lot of time and effort. I am actually gonna admit, genuinely surprised it's been this long. Although, I'm not sure how long after release ELS IV came out, so maybe this is the normal time frame for that kinda mod, not sure, wasn't around on PC for GTA IV.

"Officers from the Traffic and Highway Patrol Command branch parked up, scanning for flagged and speeding vehicles along the M15 during this weekend's blitz" "On the 22nd of October, 2016, officers attached to the Traffic and Highway Patrol Command branch were patrolling the Vinewood/CBD area when they intercepted a flagged stolen vehicle. When the officers indicated the car to pull over it took off. Officers initiated a pursuit and gave chase. At one point officers lost sight of the vehicle, but found it soon after in a parked in a carpark with no occupants. Upon inspection of the vehicle officers found a small quantity of drugs and a knife. The car sustained minor damage such bald tires, bumper damage and smashed rear quarter window, the vehicle was reunited with it's owner. If you know anything about this incident, please contact Crimestoppers." The irony of this image is that the officer parked illegally across a driveway to issue a parking ticket to an illegally parked vehicle. However this isn't an issue, because as we all know, Police officers are infact above the law. "Traffic and Highway Patrol officers maintaining a heavy presence during this weekend's blitz, cracking down on illegally parked vehicles, delivering a message to road users that is in not okay to park like a dick" I usually try to keep the PgUp cooltext "custom made watermark" away from the subject matter, however I pressed something during the session and didn't realise that the FPS counter was up, so PgUp is covering the FPS counter on every image with the thingo in the top left, except it didn't cover it all so I had to actually exercise minimal skill and clone out the remaining numbers, so if some areas in the top left look dodgy and touched up, that's because it is, so.. Sorry to anyone who may actually like to use these as their desktop. Watch this space for exclusive pre-release images (yeah, the creator granted permission to brag and show that I get this vehicle early) of a vehicle we (..or at least I) have been waiting on the edge of my seat for, for ages now. Eek!

Will do famalam Those British models are well done, I personally have thought about using them but I really don't like blue on blue lights, and BMW cop cars just feel foreign and weird to me too. I do however use RDE so I can have a mix of Aus and American cars dispatching. (And also so I didn't have to choose if I wanted the General Duties Camry or FGX in the Police slot, I wanted both) Tip for image sharing:

Speaking of Siren Mastery, anyone got a pre-biker update (RPH v36 I think it is, unsure) version of Siren Mastery? Albo's updated it and removed the old version for d/l I'm still unwilling to update at this stage..
