Hey everyone! I'm making my very first mod, it's called Redwood bay, it's slightly based in NFS games and although the units are almost done I still have a lot to do, let me know what you think

I was not sen here five years " well i ben missing this shi* and you guys * we will se what i have in store when comes to modding stay in touch

Hi guys, Long time no post.. Been a member now for 18 years and a month. Still try and play EM4 Deluxe, emergency 20 and the new Emergency games on IOS and steam when I have time.. Is there any place i can get newer mods for EM4 or EM20 like on discord etc. looking to try some newer stuff if it even exists. if you dont mind passing on links or invites to anything fun, id love to try them. see ya around

Alright besties. We're moving again. After a long long time of wading and wallowing in a lake of indeceison, my ass has been whooped into shape and some meaningful progress has been made with the team. We finally decided on a map area! 1:1 maps are hard but composite maps are hard too. After flip flopping between a dozen different ideas since the thread began, we finally decided to create a fictionalized, scaled, representation of the northeast section of Harlem, centering around the NYPD's 25th Precinct. By finally finding an area to focus on, we've unjammed the creative block we've all been suffering by trying to focus on so much to make. Now, we have specific, clear goals for what we're including, and with that we can move forward at an accelerated pace. So, to contradict my previous statement, expect some more screenshots and overall a lot more activity on the thread.

It's a shame that so many projects just went to waste. I agree it can be time consuming, but they could have released a half finished project over say GitHub where members like myself could contribute patches and such over time or help further development in some way. Like the original NY mod. They showed screenshots and such for ages and it never saw a release.

The mod is done. It just needs bug fixes and it's been over a year. No disrespect to any modders here but they killed this community by not releasing projects and giving false hope. Had the modders released projects, or at least issued bug fixes in this case, people would have had a reason to stick around. Instead we have things like the NY Mod that was teased for like 10 years and never saw the light of day. Even if it does get released tomorrow, it will never see the audience it would have seen.

Quite a bit! I'm just terribly shy and I don't like to share my work until I'm totally confident in it's quality/"done"-ness. With that being said, I've stepped away from this project for a time to focus more on my collaborative project Project NYStalgia.

Glad to see someone still working around this place. Looks good.

Oh trust me, I get the growing up part. I don't have the free time I once did. However, the few remaining projects tend to have like 5 very accomplished devs working in Collab. They post an update once in a blue moon basically just to tease us of projects that will just waste away and never get to be enjoyed by the actual community. Hell I bet we see GTA6 released before we even see just a bug fix patch for Montana Mod 2.5 2.5 years after the release of 2.5(not the original although that would be nice too). How was the core fanbase alienated? I'd say we are the main ones breathing life support in to this forum. And yes forums have being more and more obsolete but check out some of the GTA mod forums. More then alive and well. Even some of the Sim City communities or Cities XL forums are absolutely thriving still.

Hi everyone, I’m having an issue where my image frame isn't centered. Is there a way to re-align it? I'd really appreciate your help. Thanks!

Very excited for this, the PL Mod was one of my favorites of the old mod generation. Are you planning on keeping the ITD van from 0.85?

and glad you are back missed ur content

This mod is dead. I found a South Central one on another site im sorry to say this but yeah its dead.

Closest firehouses I could find next to the 25th Precinct are Engine 35 Ladder 14 Battalion 12 2282 3rd Ave, New York, NY 10035 FDNY Engine 58 Ladder 26 1367 5th Ave, New York, NY 10029 And the closest hospital in that area would be Mount Sinai 1468 Madison Ave, New York, NY 10029 And the closest trauma center would be NYC Health + Hospitals/Harlem, located at 506 Lenox Ave, New York, NY 10037 Fun fact, the 25th Precinct was used as a exterior shot for the 54 Precinct in Blue Bloods where Danny works as a Detective 1st Grade, part of the Major Case Squad.

I don't really know what I'm doing anymore. I'm procrastinating the release of the mod, by making even more content for it. I'm trying to find motivation to actually model the remaining NPC passenger cars. In the mean time, these completed truck models will have to be settle? Have I sent these before? Maybe I did already. This is all I could come up with, in the last few months. After some consultation with GTA modders, I am happy to announce the confirmation of an Airport PD Caprice, a 1992. This is the best we can find. I am hopeful for a better picture to be found someday. Who knows what else is out there.

Hello, its been awhile, as some of you may know, a few years back, (2-3 I don't remember) I did an English translation of the RTS mod. Here is another update for it, I'd say its almost 99.9% perfect. If you find anything that needs fixed please email me at BrianD90@live.com or message me on here. Also, I may add a drug guide in the next version. Thank you. EDIT 11/09/2012 v1.8 has been uploaded, please re download. The only things I cannot to find to translate is the text that scrolls in the top when someone dies reporting the time of death and after you take someone to the hospital when it shows what you've done right or wrong across the top, anyone know where I can find this text? Once I find this text, I'll find and correct any remaining errors and release a final version (2.0) I'll include a drug guide with the final version if it has enough support so please let me know!!! Also, if I can get permission from the RTS team I may also replace the default ambulances and fly car with American units, and as to not represent a single US city, I may just go with a nationwide private service skin. Thoughts? RTS Bieberfelde English Translation v1.8.rar

Thanks, but i have one more: Credits: EmC-Unit, Vojtula.

Surprise, It's still going! Since my last development photo I built a new computer at the start of 2022 which didn't have a drive to install the disk version of EM4 so it was only until recently I bought an external one to install it. I come back with a shot from the map which shows an electricity substation along with a construction site behind and more New York housing.

Hi everyone, It's been brought to our attention that our CAPTCHA is not working properly and it's preventing new registrations. I'm trying to get the CAPTCHA error resolves, but at this time, despite looking like it's working, the back end isn't working right and is not authorizing new registrations. My understanding is registration with your Discord account is still working. If you do not have an account for here (or have since forgot the login details) you can complete the form below to request assistance and your request will be processed in order of submission. newfoundking. I can still be contacted on discord, however won't be providing creations/resets without using this form first.

West Falls I believe, I worked on that

There is no way to solve it. I removed them from the submod.

I agree with you, simple heads up about upcoming doom could contribute to saving up the webdisc and other gems. It will be hard to blame the forum owners, but imho people would fund the hosting if it would be requested. (i would contribute too) I dobut it would work, i have some URL saved in my browser, and links don't work.

I have put it on my list of mods to consider making soon

No modding support...

This error comes from the LA mod. I do not know how to fix it, nor is it a priority of mine to fix it. I personally have never used the feature, so it is not on my radar. I woke up this morning and suddenly remembered I forgot to share anything I've done. oops. I'll start posting the backlog. Stating with these edits of Itchboy's Ecto-One from a few years ago. Itchboy is to be credited here for everything except the skin and the small edits. In the future, I hope to show off more content made specifically for this mod

What confusion would accurate edits cause? I find you a lot more confusing, working on Airport apparatus without planning an Airport (?), French Missionspec vehicles (?) and so many more vehicles that make absolutely no sense + that you do not even plan on releasing. You work on Nicklaus ambulances but have completely ignored the Miami Beach Fire Rescue ambulances in its entirety - even though the map is set in Miami Beach. Nicklaus isn’t even anywhere near MB. What even is FHP doing there? There is no FHP in MB. You rarely ever see MDFR in MB - where is the MBFD? A second firestation doesn‘t fix the inaccuracy. You‘d rather see red Miami FR Ambulances than a Dade one. It’s just all so wrong I strongly believe anybody out here making edits makes them for the sake of finally bringing some accuracy to the mod. You make edits for… I don’t even know for what. 99% of the time it makes no sense. These downvotes also just add to the comedic effect, honestly.

This is one of the only reasons I still check in on this forum from time to time. Still looking forward to this mod, but I understand how life gets in the way. I understand how it feels to not want to do things for free that take up the little free time that you have!

Hello everyone, this is just a quick update to address some rumors that have been circulating online... First, no action has been taken to stop development. Although it's been a slow and long process since it started, it doesn't mean it's dead. It has been reported that some individuals have been beating the drum that this mod is dead on this website, as well as on Discord, and on YouTube. I must admit, these people are incredibly ignorant of the fact that we are a two-man team with help from several volunteers who have generously contributed material to the mod. There is no commission involved. You are not entitled to or owed our mod. It will simply be a matter of waiting unless you pay us for our time. No monetary transaction is, however, of interest to us. For both of us, this is a hobby. Goog has a family and is fully engaged in his life. He is the basis of this modification; he is the prime meat on the bone, and he is the foundation of it all. The models he makes are meticulously detailed because he wants to deliver a fun and realistic gaming experience. He then hands it over to me in which I add a soul to these models with my realistic emergency lighting system, which is an extremely labor-intensive process on such an outdated game engine. Considering I am a full-time college student and work full-time, and having been involved in emergency 4 for almost 12 years, I find it difficult to find motivation or inspiration to open the editor on my time-constrained schedule. However, when I have time, I spend a few hours completing a model or two in a day. It is neither my intention to gain sympathy nor to justify the pace of our development. But to demand it now is ungrateful and does nothing to help. Perhaps you could delve deep into community tutorials and resources to make your own modification if you are that impatient. People who constantly DM me asking for ETAs or harassing us will simply be ignored. Basically, I see a few of you as vultures looking for opportunities to rip off or steal our development materials once it's out. In spite of this, most of you seem to be seeking new beginnings in such a legendary game, and this is the people who we are doing this for. The people who waited patiently and supported our development are what motivate us to keep going. Thank you. I appreciate your time, and I will be posting an update soon on several models that have been edited with ELS.

Anyone able to download them seems the link is broken

I Have A Idea To Add More Weapon To The LA Mod Like Giving Police Officer AR-15 Or Shotgun And Bulletproof Vest Same With The CHP And The LASD, LAPD SWAT Also Add Riot Equipment Like Riot Shields Tear Gas Grenade Launcher And Last Thing Is Add A New Unit The US Army Tank Like The M1A1 Abrams

Hey Shauney, Pretty unlikely that anyone's going to make a mod for you. That said, there's plenty of resources and support to learn to make your own! I'd recommend reading over some of the topics on the forum and learning how to make your own version of a West Metro mod. That said, in an effort to motivate you, I'd like to share a reskin I made of an Itchboy model I borrowed from the West Falls modification. In an evening of boredom, I made a Safety 35, even though I have no mods based anywhere near Colorado... Model credits to Itchboy and SlateDragon1, skinned by myself.

Hello, I have performed an upate for the forum and server software. This caused a small down time. We are now up and running again. At this time I am checking the mail issue. - Updated forum to new release - Updated Server - Implemented HTTPS for the whole site - Implemented Security checks on our e-Mail server --> This should fix all e-mail issued users had

This solution was shared to me a few months back and I got no improvement from it, however I was on an Nvidia GT430 at the time. Now I'm on a 1050Ti and I still get no difference, so it seems to be something unique to AMD cards. I never thought of this before. I will be pinning this thread so that other AMD users can see this and try it out. It might be placebo, it might be real. Until we figure out what fastcopy does, only then we can isolate what "task" is making Em4 slow down. A 5700XT absolutely should have no problems running Em4 at 100+ FPS, even on a mid range CPU.

Because it's one of the most asked questions on the forum I made a list of what files have to be changed when you want to replace a vehicle in one of the fire stations. This includes changing the command to call it from the fire station. It's impossible to explain every detail in the script, so some scripting knowledge might be handy. It's NOT adviced to make any changes to the (bays of the) engine's and ambulances, because they have a far more advanced script logic. Patience is required to do this. Lets say you want to replace the USAR squad with the Watertender, because they have about the same size and only one of them can be parked in the bay. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Files which are necessary to change: LAFireStationStart.script (to spawn the vehicle at start) LAFireStation.script (for crew and gate information at fire station) LAToFireStation.script (park command) LABattalionChief.script (call command) Other: Adding the "Go to fire station" command to the new vehicle Removing the "Go to fire station" command to the replaced vehicle ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LAFireStationStart.script First thing you can try is to let it spawn at the right spot with crew when you start a new game. LAFireStationStart.script does nothing more than that. Some analizing of LAFireStationStart.script reveals that the prototype of the USAR squad is mentioned in line 23. Changing that prototype to any other prototype is enough to spawn another object. in this case "water_tender.e4p". You don't need to change the constants or anything else. Same thing counts for other things explained later. When you further look for USAR, you should eventually find line 230 which should say ActorList l12 = Game::GetActors(VO_USAR); The lines below are important. They set number of passengers (and sometimes transports), speed and the crew that enters the vehicle at start. Notice the numer that is used in the crew line. The code of that line refers to another script and calls a single unit for that vehicle. The numbers refer to the certain unit (USAR firefighter in this case). List of possible units: 1 = FF/PM with case 2 = FF/PM's with stretcher 3 = FF/EMT 4 = Battalion Chief 5 = FF HAZMAT 6 = USAR FF 7 = FF/EMT's with stretcher ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Important tips: You can do millions of things with C++, it's impossible to explain everything, just compare your code with other codes in the scripts. For example: When you want to add 4 firefighters instead of 2 just look at other parts in the script. Besides that, testing is very important. If you fail first time, please try it again before going to the forum. And remember kids, it's like sex, you don't immediatly run to mommy and daddy when you can't get it up at your first date. That's it for now. I hope most people understand this. When I have more time I will see if I can explain the other scripts.

I was wondering how you could make a pursuit type call out. Not like the ones where a getaway car is needed but a call where it is a pursuit where the car won't pull over.

In order to Reskin a vehicle from the LA Mod you will have to "unlock" the dds file(s) that are required for the vehicle, for this example we will be asking to reskin one of the many crown victorias. In this example the CHP Vic. First you must Unlock the dds file, in order to do this you must find the dds file that you wish to alter which would be located in the following folder: Game Install\Mods\LA MOD 1.8\Models\Vehicles\03 LA Police\cv_chp.dds (some vehicles have multiple texture files) You have to rename the file to something else and change the extension from dds to v3o, this will allow the editor to unpack the file making it readable by Photoshop or a dds converter. Due to the fact that most vehicles have the same name for the Vehicle model and the dds Texture file, it is advisable to name it something such as follows: cv_chp.dds to cv_chpt.v3o Now, you need to open the editor, load the modification and then select "unpack file" again you will have to navigate to the same folder but the editor shows the folder structure a bit different: Mod:Models\Vehicles\03 LA Police\ Find your renamed dds which for the example is cv_chpt.v3o and press ok, this will unpack the file so you may edit it. Now you need to rename the file back to dds, in order for the vehicle model file to recognize the texture be sure to rename it back to what it originally was, which in this example is cv_chp.dds Once this is done you then have to either convert the dds file using a dds converter (one is available in our downloads section) or import it using Photoshop. Convert/save the image to whatever format you wish to use, .BMP, .PNG, .TGA, etc. whichever you prefer and open it in the painting application of your choosing and alter it as necessary to do whatever you wish to do to the vehicle skin. Now you have to take your texture and turn it back into the dds file for the model file which accompanies the vehicle to recognize it's new texture. Ensure that all of the dds files you have changed are in the folder where they belong and when you load the editor you should see your newly skinned vehicle there now.

I've always been a big fan of video tutorials. Perhaps it's just the way I'm wired, but I learn best by watching others, and I feel like I'm not alone. I've been considering making a series of tutorial videos on various aspects of mod making. If I was to throw a series together, what sort of tutorials would you like to see? Published Videos Quick Tips - Short videos that share tips and tricks to make modding a little bit easier. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gdwgl1obnqk - Quick Tip #1 - Make your editor Run As Administrator Essential Modding Skills Tutorials - A set for full length tutorials showing you step-by-step (and mostly unabridged) how to perform the most basic tasks needed to create a mod from scratch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U6p5XtcG9Vc - Adding Vehicles Part 1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7iYkwc_57M - Adding Vehicles Part 2 Why am I doing all this? Well it took me 2 years of messing around to become (self-proclaimed) proficient at mod making. In this day and age, there seems to be a serious stagnation in creativity in the EM4 community. The reason, I believe, is partially because of the steep learning curve required to create new custom content. With these videos I hope to give people the tools to think outside the box and create something NEW for Emergency 4. LA Submods are cool and all, but I think we can make something better.... What harm can come from providing a collection of knowledge in a quick easy to digest format? None that I can see.

Dear Community, After a downtime of about 3 days we are able to announce that the site is back online for public. We moved to a new host, optimized the download area, got in a fresh skin and tweaked a lot of setting. If you got issues or suggestions, please share them with us in the Website support topic In case your lost your password, please click here. If you did not get a validation email, please login with your data and click on resend validation email. Kind regards, Stan P.S: We are aware the homepage is broken, this should be fixed soon. mails should come allong slowly, we still got a limit of 100 mails an hour for the next 12 days.

I think this topic definitely has potential, and all are great ideas. For this one: -During a traffic stop, the officer should have to call in the name to see if the guy is clean I might be able to help, but not for a week or so, and I think other people here could do a way better job then I can
