US Army Mod 0.6 [RELEASED]

Recommended Posts

Hi, I know this mod was released a long time ago and I wanted to know if 0.6 is the latest patch/download or is there an unnoficial patch or download? (Including add-ons) 

 

I think 0.6 is the latest version and I don't know any addons for this mod...

0.6 is the latest version. As for addons, do you mean like submods?

 

There were a few submods that were planned but went dead/never got permission.

Hey, would somebody be willing to upload this mod without it being an .e4mod file?  My modinstaller doesn't work right, so I can't install the mod and I really want to play it  :happy:  Thanks!

 

Have you tried running your modinstaller as an admin?

This could be a solution for your problem.

Yeah, it just has that error where it says "911 FR is not properly installed," even though I bought the game on Atari and installed it properly lol.  There's a solution to the problem, I know, but I'm too lazy to mess with registry settings and fix it.  :prop:

I love the mod, honestly it gives a whole new dynamic to emergency 4. But coming from my knowledge of the military and units that are deployed, it doesnt feel realistic enough. I feel like it needs more units thay can be deployed, aircraft such as the F/A 18E/F Superhornet or the A-10A Thunderbolt II to be on station as CAS aircraft or DC missions (DC = Danger Close)

The reason aircraft were not included is because of the size of the map and the function they could play in such a small map being limited by the game's mechanics. At best they could be used to attack a target and go scorched earth on it, which is not really realistic for this size of a map, and the type of occupation you're trying to simulate. If this was early 2000s Middle East, blowing things up all the time would be much more realistic, but at this point in the game, they're more there to deal with smaller incidents and return some sort of stability, not operate on scorched earth. 

 

Aircraft in this game that are not helicopters are good for dropping something on a target and then leaving, and that's about it. Base game uses water bombers, US Army Mod could adapt to bombs, but that would create more problems than it'd solve, so why bother bringing in those problems?

Ok, I have created an account on here to seek some help in trying to download this mod. I was able to download and install this mod back in 2013 while I was deployed and played it on my laptop but it did not run fast enough. When I did play it I thought it was very interesting but now that I am home I can not get the download to work. I have my registry fixed with the mod installer due to the fact that I am able to install other mods but when I download this mod and extract it when I attempt to install it, I get the "Mod pack corrupted" error. I have searched on these forums for the last year and have attempted every fix that I have seen remotely resembling my error. If anyone has any advice or help they can give me I would greatly appreciate it. I do not mean to be rude but again I have tried everything I have read on this website in regards to this mod with no luck in installing the mod. Thank you in advance for any help that you can give, I greatly appreciate it.

On the subject of aircraft, I was curious if there was an intention (or still is) for close air support to play a larger role in the mod? It seems like you guys put in a bit of work with the AH64 for it's only inclusion in the mod to be a brief fly by as the game starts. Airborne assets play a large role in US military operations, even escorting routine supply convoys. The absence of any CAS always seemed to be a bit unfortunate.

Having the "mod pack is corrupted" error aswell and I'm running ModInstaller as an admin. Gonna try and reinstall EM4

 

 

Edit 10 Hours later: I had to install the LA Mod first and the US Army mod installed perfectly fine though it seems to be alot harder to beat some missions than from what I remember :laugh:

That error specifically relates to your downloaded mod file.  Delete the mod file, clear your internet cache and try to re-download the file..  Might be worth trying an alternative browser if it keeps happening on your preferred browser.

@ Soupl your computer is trying to use winrar to open the .mod file.  This modification uses the modinstaller to install the mods, so you need to open the file with the modinstaller, which came with the game, not winrar.
