    The first one. Again looks clearer and crisper. The black of the vehicle also seems to be more black, if that makes sense. The second one looks a little washed out, it seems to have lost a bit of the colours.

    It is.  That why the image was never loaded to my site before.  It had been washed out by sun hitting the lens.

    Things look more "defined" in the first sets, for a lack of a better way of saying it. What'd you do to them? I need to learn

    I was using software called dxo optics pro there  http://www.dxo.com/us/photography/photo-software/dxo-opticspro

    When Googling emergency planet and clicking forums on the first listings links you will be presented with an error.

    The way the forum is has changed it going to take some time for the google webbots to remap and redo all that stuff.

  3. It differs from time to time but we just had 2 crashes in a short amount of time as well :(

    I haven't had the opportunity yet to test the hospital, will do so the next time we play.

    BTW, rescue 6 still exists in Endless, but cannot be send to station.

    Some other suggestions i have;

    Could you create extra police parking places at stations 1 and 4, because now there are simply not enough in my opinion. I believe patrol 1 does not have a parking place (the other patrol cars do), yet you end up having just 5 police cars in the entire map. I understand that creating extra places requires more patrol cars (as in unique numbering), but maybe you can think of another solution. Now i just buy more patrol cars of the same type and place them somewhere near the road.

    I also wonder why medics 5 and 6 are at the same station, although the overall 'spread' of medics is fine (especially compared to police).

    Last but not least is to move station 3 up higher in the map, because now it is very close to 7 and at the top left of the map there is basically nothing.

    . The police hq is right next station 1 so Park patrol 1 there. Also there is police car that parks near station 4. In fact three patrol cars Park in South. 4 5 and 6

  4. In reality what you'd be playing with IF you did it correctly won't hurt the OS.. You just better follow instructions very very specifically and not tamper with things which you do not understand.

    Start>Run> type in "regedit" without the quotes.

    Since I have no clue what your version of the game you have installed as, I'll have to take a guess here Likewise your Operating System you're using:

    Without the OS I'm kind of guessing, with the game I don't have that version so we'll try to work around that:

    Type F3 This will open up the search option for regedit:

    Search for the following:

    "Emergency 4"

    ^This IS case-sensitive.

    Note:

    This is usually found in either "HKEY_SOFTWARE\" (rare these days) or "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\" (If installed for an individual user) or "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\" (If installed globally)

    It will generally be found under a root directory beneath one of these: for me it's sixteen tons entertainment, yours may vary since it's from a different vendor (Steam).

    Once you find the Emergency4 directory, in there will be registry keys... The only one you will be altering and should alter is the "InstallDir" value.

    If you have not found "InstallDir" continue searching using F3 until you do.

    In my particular OS because of how the structure is on it, this value is stored in multiple places in the registry, meaning I have to change the value in each location I find it in. You will have to do the same if you find multiples of Emergency 4 With "InstallDir" within them. An unfortunate thing with newer operating systems, but to be sure you've changed them all you should continue searching and change every one of them if the first is incorrect.

    Click on it and it will open a pop-up menu with an install path within it. C:\Program Files ect..... If the directory for the install path does not match your installation directory change the key to match your actual installation directory then press ok.

    Close regedit.

    That is how you alter the registry to fix it for this game (if it needs to be altered). If the problem persists after you've done that someone with EM4 via steam will have to assist. In order for them to assist they will require your os version (windows whatever it is and whether or not it is 32 bit or 64 bit).

    For steam version the mod installer works.

  5. The short answer is: Technically EMERGENCY 2016 EM5 2.0 is much better than EMERGENCY 5 (first reason why your theory is wrong) and the 20XX series sold very well in comparison with the original series (second reason why your theory is wrong). :)

    Yes his theory was the reason for renaming was to distance the new game from the horrible simply 2013 launch.

    There nothing wrong there.

  6. the change some core game play. so it really not that shocking the mods have been broken. example netherlands mod add guns to cops. well cops know have guns. unlimited vehicles mod. Well for emergency 2016 they add a new vechile. Sot he total number has changed, it every possible that causing that mod to break.

  7. So not get to hate here from the masses but I gave them there 5.99 since I already had em5 or 2015.  The most I can say is its not the same without the LA mod.  There are four big maps to choose from, all overseas from where I am.  There are nice buttons to choose vehicles and it works a lot better than 2015 at launch did.  But the variety of units in the LA mod.  The five dollar deal lasts to the 19th and I did it with hopes at some point it may become better,  Here's to hope.

    Just as FYI what your 5.99 got was the new missions and vechile.

    I think it would be wrong of them to bring out EMERGENCY2016 which is virtually EM2015 just been updated with all the stuff we genuinely wanted 2015 to be, and then expect everyone to pay for it again, well sorry guys but no deal ;) haha

     basically EM2016 is $30 for new players. 5.99 for players with EM5. EM5 was patch with all game play changes but do not get the new missions or new vechile.

     

    Eh, most gaming series now turn into cash-grab, and I never understood the "... Simulator 20XX" thing. I mean, they were basically same games, with a little bit of altered content. At the same time probably the most successful simulator - ETS2 - was released once and only gets updates and DLCs time to time (and here DLCs are either adding a big chunk of content or are purely cosmetic items probably created by the art dept while tech dept was creating patches). And Emergency unfortunately seems to follow this "20XX" thing.

    Also, about the aforementioned GTA V - it was released once (for the old gen) and then second time(for the PS4/XBONE and PC), no paid DLCs, just updates. i mean, they are talking about future story DLC, but it's even better - they don't push out the same game in different envelope, and the base game definitely has content worth of it's price.

    TL;DR - don't buy EM2016, it just encourages the publishers(and sometimes developers) to do the yearly game thing.

    IF they discount the update like they did this time. I see no real problem with it provide they keep doing as they did. Give game play changes to old version. Offer a deep discount for owning the older game.

    Personal I think they made the following mistakes.

    1. When they announced the DLC they did not mention that they would apply game play changes to EM5.

    2. Mention they would offer the new version at a discount price.

    I been very harsh to sixteen Ton. For very valid reason. But they recent actions. Has at least shown that they release they made mistakes and working to improve it.

    Add the game play changes to EM5. Was the right action. Providing a steep discount (only a short window. 5 days) Adds to that.

    Which is why I am debating gating the em2106.
