[AI GENERIC] Law enforcement cars update

[Boomboomboom]

Hope this is still an active forum.

I’ve completed a review of the in-game police cars.

No update necessary: Austria; Bulgaria; Czechia; Portugal; Spain; Sweden; Turkey.

Requires a model / skin removing (where there are 2 or more police cars:
• Denmark (Ford Mondeo)
• Estonia (blue and white only skin)
• Latvia (black and white skin)
• Lithuania (stripe / line skin)
• Norway (VW Passat sedan);
• Netherlands (VW Touran)
• Germany (old Passats both sedan and station wagon since new model has been added).

Small changes required:
• France (replace “Police” Renault with Skoda Octavia based model and use the “Police” Renault model for “Gendarme” as the light bar is more accurate on the estate model. Also, add a “Municipal Police” skin as per https://www.awesomediecast.com/norev-1- ... ay-police/ to the latter model)
• Netherlands (light bar needs to change to clear not blue, but current model is okay for now)
• Romania (update skin).

Needs replacement:
• Poland (use new German BMW model instead)
• Switzerland (use VW transporter van model and write Police in the French speaking zones and Polizei in the German speaking part)
• Belgium (use Skoda Octavia and VW Transporter model);
• Russia (use Skoda Octavia model)
• UK (use new German Police BMW model, add local language translations of police to cars in Wales (Heddlu) and Scotland (Polieas).

Changes in near future: Slovakia (they are moving away from the livery to one just like Czechia except in Slovakian).

I spent a long time on this, hope it helps.

Belgium

To follow up on my previous post, since this year, new police cars are receiving a brand new paintjob, existing in 4 variants, most of the details can be found on the police official website right there, and it seem like beside the small text on the door, federal and local police cars will look identical https://www.police.be/5998/fr/actualite ... e-integree


The most common "full" paintjob, taking the entire side + chevrons on the front and back:

This one just entered service in the traffic division of Brussels police, the paintjob features their own logo, which is present in the old post, and a video of one of those cars:

Then a "half" paintjob, taking...half side + chevrons on the front and back, both cars pictures are used by the federal highway patrol, notice how federal police cars DO NOT have a number on the trunk, as that number whatever identifier any local police would have

As well as a "simplified" one:

Other details are featured on their website as state above.

Luxembourg

Law enforcement in Luxembourg is handled primarly by the "Police Grand-Ducale", the car presently in game sports their old livery, but a few years ago, they switched to a new one.
The hood of the car will typically have "Police; Lëtzebuerg", the front doors "Police; Zesumme fir iech", the rear flanks the emergency number "113" and the trunk "police.lu"
Traffic enforcement cars will have orange reflective bumpers. Having a pretty diverse fleet, various cars used in Luxembourg are already present in the game.

Details.
