Just got this guy today:

Im told it needs new strobe controllers.

The only bars I have today are my Liberty, Mini Vector, and this Vista. This is my first foray into strobes.

Edit Addition:

Just got a lens kit for my Liberty today:

Emergency type game based out of Hong Kong and Japan and gameplay in those regions.

Will be available on Steam sometime hopefully in 2023

I have since upgraded my Liberty to all LED with high intensity LED takedowns and LED alleys, have also made it into a Wecan Bar so I can program it from my computer

Im curious: How do you kill a lightbar? Too much voltage?

Some lightbars have fuses in them, I think the vector had 2 20 amp fuses in it, But they dont do any good if you provide 600 amps to the wrong side of the circuit. The pod I was replacing refused to light up the bulb which I knew was a good bulb, So I tried another pod, connected wires from the jump starter to the pods wire leads(before fulling screwing the pod in so it was partly completing the full circuit) and I guess that killed the whole bar.

In other news, I got some red LED modules for my Liberty.

I now just need 2 more red modules for the rear for it to be true red blue, Not stopping there, Will eventually replace the takedowns and alleys with compatible led versions.

Modified my 3 pod Vector SL from amber to red white and blue:

Started this Summer with 7 bars, killed a full size vector while trying to get it fully working, tossed it out as well as the parts bar I was using for it., Sold my full size Amber Vector SL.

With the removal of the amber led modules out of my Mini Vector, I placed them into my Arjent SL and have it listed for sale on craigslist:

If I can sell it, I will be left with my Liberty and Streethawk and Mini Vector SL Which I have no intention of selling/tossing either of them.

I seriously had to room in my tiny apartment for all of these lol.

Came across an article that had a video, its preview image instantly reminded me of an Emergency game.

EM4 Deluxe has been released on Steam for $17.99 USD

I came into this problem a few days ago, it turned out the copy of 7zip I was using was from 2010, But luckily there is a more recent version of it.

Also, the version of winrar thats found on this site is an old version, and it should be deleted from the library here.

I hate change

No

Stupid mode engaged, Came across a few rar files that wouldnt open the other day, Turns out ive been using the same version of 7zip since 2010, and the copy of Winrar I found wasnt much newer, But after installing a more recent copy of 7zip, the file opened correctly.

Try again it worked for me

"Can not open file.rar as an archive." after downloading it again, do i need a mod installer to open this?

Unable to open 0.7 in the link provided in the first post of this topic, used both 7zip and winrar on 2 different computers.

I have since added a few more bars to my collection, A Amber Vector SL, an Amber Mini Vector SL, a Whelen Liberty, and a Federal Signal Streethawk.

Both amber vectors have very short cables and that allowed me to get them both for $75 total.

I have a temporary power solution to powering them, I have been able to see what works on my first Vector, sadly it seems that only 3 rotators work along with the takedowns and alleys, the mini vector sl runs fine, the larger vector sl had its rotator bulb burned out so I replaced it with one of the working ones from my first vector, The Liberty runs fine on a 10amp continuous regulated power supply and the Streethawk works completely.

Hit harbor.hks and it fixs it.

I assume this is a fix for black screen after loading, But Where is it and what do you mean by hit? delete? open? Im using 5.01 btw

I know, old topic, but my reply is extremely very relevant:

Emergency 4 Deluxe is scheduled to be released sometime this month(Feb 2018) on Steam, For those who also might not be aware, Emergency 3 and 911: First Responders is also on Steam at $5 USD each, I expect EM4D to be less than $10 USD. 

I only know of the Steam version of 911:FR that Mods found here do work on it, I would expect Steams EM3 and EM4D to be the same.

Additionally, Emergency 20 has released a few months ago which features select missions from the 20 years of Emergency games as well as the complete 5, 2016 and 2017 releases which can no longer be purchased from Steam, a discount for 2016 and 2017 owners is expected to happen. I am not sure but I think 5.16, and 17 mods will work in 20.

If you have a modern Nvidia video card, you can try Shadowplay, It too is free.

Nicee! ima get anther picture in a sec

 Ladder One from a CRD Wildfire Meeting, with Chief Becket and Assistant Chief Aubrey. 

Please dont mind my e-stalking, But any idea on what this guy was doing so far into Victoria far from its town on this day?, From a look on Google maps, It looks like Victoria is a fairly decently sized city and wouldnt need mutual aide from neighboring communities. Then again, maybe they were on a training run this day, My local university has occasional training classes that bring in fire department resources from neighboring communities.

Does it help anyone if the mods are placed into the mods folder in the games install folder?

Was having problems installing them from another folder on another drive, then I moved the e4mod files into the mods folder and it worked(after many trial and error getting the installer to work.)

Got to go to Pennsylvania earlier this month, got a good shot of the countryside:

Taken from a moving vehicle and still it ended up great with minor editing.

Akron PD(My city) now has new 2016 Gen Explorers:

Got to ride in a Robinson R44 this weekend, it was my first helicopter ride ever. $20 got me a 3 minute ride at an air show in NW Ohio.

Here is the bird:

Also of note at the air show:

Loved the layout of this air show, granted it was tiny, it was all open areas as opposed to aircraft blocked off in an active taxiway area, there were aircraft taxiing within 20 feet of me with no fences keeping people off the taxiway as well as tugs parking aircraft less than a few feet away from me.

Anyone else play this glorious Space Combat Economy Simulator?

Thinking about resubbing in a week and getting into manufacturing.

Acquired a Federal Signal Arjent SL this week

Those shots were taken in Cleveland Ohio

Some shots from today:

Never thought in my life I would have a chance to photograph modern CHP, The time has come and I didnt need to leave my state!

Just wish they could have kept the tradition of using Vision lightbars going(with the modern SLR version)
