  1. Hi All,

    London Mod v1.3 should now be available in the download section.

    Many thanks to theocd, randomperson139, Pottyscotty and Wkboy714 for assisting at the beta testing stage; your help, input and advice were greatly appreciated.

    And also to Sniped222 for his continuing support of the various updates.

     

    I’ve just got a few points to make before signing off.

    If you like the mod…that’s fine

    If you don’t like the mod…that’s fine. The world would be a boring place if we were all the same!

    However, if you feel disappointed or surprised that a certain unit or script wasn’t included in the game, or that a particular ‘feature’ didn’t function as you’d expected, then please resist the temptation to post your thoughts within theses pages…Because too be quite frank… I’m not interested in your opinion!

    Everything I wanted to see in a mod is in there...And that’s all the matters!

    Please make sure you install v1.3 as a completely separate version and DO NOT overwrite v1.2 if it’s already in your mod folder!

    Please make a ‘concerted effort’ to familiarize yourself with the ‘known issues’ in the mod by reading the appropriate PDF that’s been placed within the ‘clearly identifiable’ game folder! And remember, there are no prizes for wanting to be the first to report a bug!

    The mod uses the ‘standard’ EM4 installer, as this provides the safest, most convenient and hassle-free form of installation for the majority of users, I am ‘fully aware’ that some people have problems with this installation method but that’s the only one there will be…So please DO NOT PM me asking for an alternate method of installation!

    The mod is pretty graphics intensive and there can be considerable ‘game lag’ for those using computers with medium/lower spec graphics cards & CPU’s. With that in mind I took the decision to drastically reduce the number of events taking place on the map at any one time. If you decide to edit the ‘freeplay params’ file to increase the number of incidents, then you do so at your own risk!

     If you’re still having problems getting the mod to run properly because of lower pc specs, then I’m very sorry, there’s nothing I can do about it. And no…I have no plans to release a ‘lite version’ so don’t ask! 

    And finally…Please don’t PM me asking to use the London Mod (especially the map) as a starting point for ANY kind of submod…No permission will be given now…Or anytime in the future!

     

    Currently, I have no plans to work on v1.4, so for now, v1.3 will be the last edition.

    Many thanks to all those who have downloaded the mod in the past…And ‘Stuck with it’... awaiting the arrival of the latest version!

    Kind Regards

    Tabards for Station Manager and Watch manager now ingame with the option to call pump and pump/ladder units from off map.

    All Met and LAS response units now have multiple lighting options:

     

    FRONT BLUES: lightbar front blues

                               fend-off front blues/whites (if fitted)

                               headlight wig-wags

     

    AT SCENE:        lightbar rear blues

                              lightbar rear reds

                              fend-off rear blues (if fitted)

     

    REAR BLUE:      lightbar rear blues only

     

    REAR RED:        lightbar rear reds only

    No taser for BTP officer’s and yes, BMW 3 series area car is included.

     

    I’m afraid it’s still the “Call van/HQ” option as I don’t plan to add either of Hoppah’s “ReturnTo” police station/hospital scripts.

     

    Regards Mintcake69

     

  3. For those with an interest in British Transport Police.

    And please note that these will be the only BTP units in the game!

     

     

    And for those enquiring about various ‘change clothes’ options.

     

    Some, although, not all! Met and LAS personnel do have the option to wear hi-viz jackets. And while LFB fire fighters and the station manager do have the ability to change in and out of their working rigs, I have no plans to introduce multiple ‘tabard’ options.

     

    Regards

  4. Can I ask, will City of London Police have their red and white chequered hats? Also I cannot wait for this mod! Will we continue seeing the Jam Sandwich Units or is it purely battenberg? Also, is the JRU Car a Volvo XC70? Another question (sorry if I'm asking too much) will there be Robbery Squad Vehicles?

     

    Yes, they do have the red & white chequers.

     

    Yes, there are still several ‘jam sandwich’ units in the mod.

     

    Yes, you are correct; the game icon does show an XC70.

     

    And finally…..I’m afraid that ones a no! As I don’t have any plans to introduce robbery squad cars or personnel.

     

     

    And for those asking about BTP units, yes, there are a couple of ‘response cars’ in the mod and I’ll post some images when I have the time.

     

     

    Regards

  5. My guess is that its a panic button 

     

    Correct!

     

    ‘Assistance Call’ uses modified versions of Hoppah’s ‘Standby’, ‘Call Police Car’ and ‘Call Ambulance’ scripts.

    Officer’s and PCSO’s have the option to make an ‘Assistance Call’ or request a medical unit from the LAS ‘Joint Response Team’.

  6. I'm liking the RLH, my local MTC! I notice the old blue HEMS cars parked outside it, are they going to be changed to the new red ones?

     

    Great job so far on the update :)

     

    Yes, the LAA Helo and Skoda’s with their new colour schemes are in-game and in their right parking spots :12:  That was an old picture ;)

  7. Some maps shots.

    I've still got lots of map work to do and a few more scripts to add as well as general cosmetic upgrades to the UI, so I've got no idea on a completion date!

  8. Yep, BMA’s pepper spray script is already in the game.

    Hi all.

    Sorry for the lack of updates! Work is still continuing on the map with about 75% completed. I’ll try and upload a few more map images in the next few days.

  9. Hello All.

     

    As the ocd & Sniped have already mentioned, v1.3 of the London Mod is still an ongoing project. All the new units (20 or so) and new personnel (around a dozen) are now in-game. I’m currently working on the freeplay map and have completed about 50% of the work. I’m hoping to release the mod sometime early next year.

     

    A few units and in-game shots

    Many thanks for your continued interest in the Mod.

     

    Can I also remind everyone that while v1.3 is in development the use of ANY London Mod units or personnel is still not allowed without my permission.

  10. Hi All,

    As Sniped222 has mentioned, v1.2 of the London Mod has been uploaded onto the download’s section of this site. However, until Stan has approved the file, it won’t be available for download. It is my understanding that he is rather busy at the moment which means this process may take several days (so please be patient!!!)

    I’d like to thank The OC-D for his assistance with beta testing over the last week or so, his help was greatly appreciated!

    Before I sign off there are a few points that I’d like to mention:

    Firstly, although we found no major bugs when testing the mod, there were numerous issues, that, while slightly inconvenient, in no way stop the game from being played.

    These ‘glitches’ have been documented and the relevant PDF filed placed within the mod folder. Please familiarise yourself with its contents before posting any ‘bugs found’ posts on these pages!

    Secondly, due to work commitments, no further updates will be added to this modification, at least not by me, (That also means no bug fixing!) until late 2012/early 2013. So any ‘posts’ asking “when will there be any new updates” or enquiring “is this mod dead?” will not be answered until then!

    Hope you all enjoy playing the mod,

    Kind Regards

  11. Hi All,

    After finally finding somewhere to buy Emergency 4 for the UK, (I got mine from the play.com for those that want to know) I knew this would be the first mod I would be downloading and I must say I am VERY impressed! The attention to detail is just magnificent. You guys deserve a real pat on the back! It just adds so much more depth and enjoyment to an already great game! I have downloaded most mods for the game now and this is by FAR the best!

    Regards,

    Danny.

    Thanks for the kind comments Danny, I'm hoping v1.2 will be even better when it's finished.

    Mod v1.2 Update: (not yet released!)

    Patrol routes have already been added.

    Police and fire stations along with a hospital have also been added to the freeplay map.

    Regards,

    Mintcake69

  13. Hi All,

    As promised, the first unit added to version 1.2

    Metropolitan Police Ford Transit Station Van

    post-8800-0-23678700-1323447050.png

    Next version update:

    I’ve spoken to Sniped222 and although he did post several weeks ago promising a few new updates, I believe he was working on some unmarked cars and a fire boat.

    Unfortunately he’s not available at the moment to work on the mod any further and wants me to pass on his apologies. So for the time being it’ll just be me.

    I have several units now ‘in-game’ and a list of others that I hope to add over the next few months and I’ll try and post some more pictures when I have the time. (Please don’t ask what’s on the list or what units will be added!)

    And for those who will inevitably ask about a release date…. Were talking months, not weeks, so try and be patient.

    Regards

    Mintcake69

  14. Hello im new, but i have been playing this mod for moths now, best mod ever!

    i have some questions

    - no police units in missions, why is this?

    - What happend to unmarked police units

    - why is there jankel skins and files but not in accual game

    - could you do an update some when i could do with one soon

    - could you please add a ford transit van

    , Alex

    Hi Alex,

    Thanks for the comments.

    There were no police units available in the campaign missions because of a file error, which has now been fixed (in the next version!)

    There will be several unmarked units added to the mod when the next version is released.

    The Jankel unit needed the appropriate CO19 officers to accompany it; these have now been added and will be included in the next release.

    I’ve just added a Transit 'station van’ to the mod so that will help with the prisoner transport issue.

    There will be another version of the mod some time in the future and I’ll try to release some pictures of the new units already added to the game, in the next few weeks.

    Hope that helps,

    Regards

    Mintcake69

  15. Hi all,

    This will be the last ‘unit’ to be placed in v0.2

    Metropolitan Police ‘Marine Policing Unit’ Landrover Defender.

    post-8800-0-67650900-1294851819_thumb.jp

    And these will be the last ‘changes’ made to the mods personnel!

    post-8800-0-66920100-1294851834_thumb.jp

    We now just need to add some ‘cosmetic’ changes to the Mod and tidy up afew loose ends, and with a bit of luck, we’ll have v0.2 out some time in February.

    Thanks for your patience,

    Regards

    Mintcake69
