Blackout

Feel free to edit the mod for your personal use. If you wish to change the call volumes then you can change the fp_params_endless.xml

All stretcher teams do return to their ambulances - there is a wait time to simulate transfer of care and what not. So no Dive, it's not a 'problem'

Duh, Read the title blackout

I'll be putting up some pictures of PD units after 3.4 is released

... if i can figure out how to download it....

Nice! This will likely be going in the harbor city mod unless that's a problem...

Thanks! Have you tested this with multiplayer?

3.3.2 known issues that will be fixed in 3.4:

- Jumper calls cause the game to crash in multiplayer sessions

- Few vehicles and personnel have "ID_TOOLTIP" for a name

Well the patrol function in LA mod make patrol cars and ambulances behave that way, but as soon as you move them they go back to normal

As for the spawning - it's for a multiplayer game, i just need to know how to create a new 'task force vehicle type' and i can to the rest from there

Okay I have searched all over the forums for an answer to a few questions and I still can't find what I am looking for

1) I have a "Code 2 script" in place in Harbor City mod, that will make units drive traffic speeds when their lights are off, but they will still pass civilian cars and run red lights... Does anyone know of the command that you use to tell the vehicle to behave like a civilian car at red lights and such?

2) Does anyone know who to make your own 'task force group' .. I am trying to make my own so I can have each unit spawn in their bay when you deploy them

Thanks for your help! (if you help )

After almost 3 years of modding, Squad 55 has finally decided to release our mod to the public. This mod has been based off of the LA 2.1 mod and has had hundreds of hours of additional changes and improvements. From map texture and layout, to the addition of new units and amazing lighting, functioning hospital, "code 2" scripts, customized stations with personnel area, there have been so many changes that it really is it's own mod.

We decided to release this mod to the public for several reasons. We'd like to share Harbor City with the public and people who don't have the time to join a clan. We want to show everyone what our clan has to offer. If you enjoy playing this mod in single player, we think you'll enjoy the multiplayer experience even more. Of course there is no better place to play fun, realistic, multiplayer games then with the clan that brought you the mod. Visit www.squad55.com and sign up. You'll be on your way to joining the longest running, and biggest emergency 4 clan around.

The file is currently uploading and will be available for download as soon as it's approved by the staff on emergency planet. Keep an eye on the Downloads page, and this thread for more updates.

Sweet - thanks guys. i donno why i've been messing around with DDS conversion anyways when i could use png or jpg and not have to convert it. Yaaaaay!

Nice video kicks! Makes me wanna go play a game haha.

I have tried to fix the alpha reflections but unchecking the box on the ladders. When i do that the ladder bucket disappears and I can't seem to edit it separately. If there is some trick to this I haven't found it.

(Dive the alpha reflections are only visible on medium and high setting)

Another alternative a lot of members are in favor of is getting a new ladder truck but we don't have any modelers in the clan so we're stuck with what we have.

I was about to rip my hair out over it not saving. Thank god I found this thread! thanks for the enter tip

thanks!

There are 7 fire stations with 3 units at each. Given the amount of calls that come and the equipment on each units all of those units are needed on the map. The stations are relatively small and they even catch on fire too sometimes, so it doesn't take away from gameplay.

Our member trocks added in the plane crash, and I don't know if there was a more "broken" model for us to use. But it is a fun, functional call regardless

As far as it being released to the public it is unlikely, and it will work for any version of EM4
