**Information**
This is a pack for the Black Ridge Fire Department designed specifically for the
GPM SAMP server. It contains five (5) vehicles:
E-450 Ambulance
Tahoe Battalion Chief
Pierce Engine
Pierce Ladder
Pierce Rescue
All vehicles have a whelen freedom lightbar (or a variation of one) that flashes
red/white with custom ELM mapping by me.
All vehicles have a working amber arrow stick that can be used in game by instal
ling my ELM flash patterns included with this pack.
All vehicles have a 'opticon' which is used to change lights from red to green i
n real life.
The ambulance and Battalion chief have a custom license plate to go with their V

INs in the SAMP server.

The Battalion Chief tahoe has a flashing green "command" light that was personal
ly requested by the BRFD fire chief just above the trunk. This is used in real l
ife so the location of command can be easily determined at a fire. If this light
does not flash green in game for you, make sure you are using a up-to-date vehi
cle.txd (one is included with this pack).
The Battalion Chief tahoe also has many tools in the trunk as well as lights in
the trunk.
The main reason I made this pack was I was sick of having a collection of vehicl
es that did not match. I also recently learned how to use 3ds max which allowed
me to change lighting and many other things. I based these vehicles somewhat on
vehicles from real life that I see but many things are different.
Other future vehicles i may create include the E-250 ambulance, F350 ambulance a
nd the F350 squad. These may come at a later date.
Six (6) PED Skins are also in this pack. All have been custom skinned and edited
by me and named the appropriate file to go with GPM SAMP. As requested by the f
ire chief, these are the skins:
Firefighter/Paramedic "at station" uniform
Lieutenant "at station" uniform
Firefighter/Paramedic Bunker Gear
Firefighter/Paramedic Bunker Gear with SCBA
Lieutenant Bunker Gear
Lieutenant Bunker Gear with SCBA
Next, I included a fire extinguisher mod that looks great in game that I have us
ed for ages. I did not create this mod.
Also included in this pack is my ELM Light Patterns I use for SAESAndy's ELM CLE
O mod.

**Editing / Terms of USE**

All models are unlocked and templates are included for each vehicle. Feel free t
o edit them as you see fit.
Since I did many things to all of these vehicles please give me (Tren/Chris Land
) credit along with others depending on the vehicle.
If you edit/reuse the skin give me credit for that since it was completely my cr
eation.

**Installation**
--Vehicles
(1) Use a IMG editor to open gta3.img from your GTA: San Andreas folder/director
y/models.
(2) Replace the appropriate vehicles included in this archive.
(3) Save the new gta3.img file and enjoy.
--PED Skins
Same as Vehicles
--Fire Extinguisher

Same as Vehicles
--vehicle.txd
(1) Place both the vehicle.txd and vehicle.txd.hack in your GTA San Andreas\mode
ls\generic folder.
-ELM Flash Patterns
(1) Download the latest SAESAndy ELM CLEO mod and follow the directions with tha
t file to get it operational.
(2) Open the "ELMConfigTool.exe", click "Optional settings", and click "Custom L
ight Pattern"
(3) There are three slots so you can only use three patterns. Click "-Import-" a
nd import whichever ELM pattern from this pack you want. Continue this for each
custom slot. (Usually I only use the Left arrow stick as directing to the right
is not used often)
(4) Click Ok
(5) OPTIONAL - You can create a hotkey for each ELM pattern which I find to be u
seful. This is done in the lower left corner of the Config Tool.
(6) Click "Install/Update Mod"
