  1. i absolutely love the latest version its exactly what i wanted it to be the limited water suply, a nice map overal, but i got 2 points that i regret a little bit and that is that the mas casualty vehicle has no station and that somethimes its a bit to hard for a single player but further its really one of the best mods out there, its e real upgrade for since i was playing the 3.3.2 version

    The mod is design for mutli player experience for squad 55.  It tune to provide a channel when they play.   The mas casualty vehicle not on map for the same reason.  As it not on map for squad 55 when they play.  

  2. Not sure what you mean. I've never had to have anyone 'man' anything. Just 1.) Get Hose from truck -> 2.) Attach hose to truck -> 3.) Fireman should automatically spray nearby fire; if not, move closer to a fire source and he should start spraying.

    That's how it's always worked for me (vanilla, and the Harbor City mod in earlier versions). So I dunno. I could try verifying cache files, or re-installing, and try re-installing the mod via Mod Installer? Maybe that was my problem? (I only copied/pasted the mod folder into the data\mods folder where mods are usually stored anyways.

    yes that was before limit water was add to harbor city.  now you need one fire fighter to man the pumps.  It why all the fire engines have a crew of 4 now and not three like they use to.  

  3. Hoppah and most of the pro modders have said it before that they are too busy these days to make something as big as the LA Mod was at the time. EM5 itself hasn't proven to be the most friendly or easy to use thing ever, and it will take time for the EMP modders to catch up.

     

    The Germans probably will make an epic mod to kickstart EM5 modding, just as they did with the Winterberg mod back in 2006.

     

    This is exactly what happened 10 years ago when EM4 modding began. Germans started some things and only by 2006 -2007 did the EM4 LA Mod become as good as it is.

     

    I am tired of people wishing "Hoppah will make LA Mod for EM5". No, he said he won't. It would have to be someone else with the time and patience to get into EM5 modding, and most of the pros have no more time to do that.

     

    Combined with the fact that EM5 did not live up to the hype and presented itself in a less than desired way, people who know modding well know that EM5 as of right now is not worth the time and effort to build stuff into it.

     

    Also, because the game has very limited appeal and only fans of the old games would be interested in it, the pool of talent is quite limited and outsiders who otherwise would have the time and skills for modding the game would be turned off by the overall package of EM5.

    Well one of the reason for long delay in em4 was the English version of the game did not come out until a year after the game had been out in Germany. I know this for fact because I got an copy of German version of EM4 when I was in Germany in May of 2006.

  4. Station 15 got called out to Knoch High for Carbon Monoxide alarm. When I heard Engine 15 was responding. I grab my camera and head there. Why well, it was the first call I heard for the brand new Pierce Velocity Engine.

  5. *facepalm* I did .. now I have a completely different problem. When I look at vehicles or the characters through a wall or building I see them as green 3D models.

    Then maybe you should say so. Instead copping and attidute with people trying to help. Go fix it your self then. And stop asking for help. If you going to be rude!
  6. Much appreciated. Um I saw nothing there that could help me to be honest.

    Like I said, I am slow. I realized that v1.5 was a TOTALLY DIFFERENT thing so I downloaded the v1.5.1 patch and put it in v1.4 .. >_> That is why it didn't work. But now the emergency vehicles are like .. green see through models when I look at them from the other side of a wall or building/solid surface.

    Well delete the mod. Download 1.5 and then install patch 1.5.1.
  7. The thing is, when E3 became E4 we moved over for a better engine and more advances with a similar editor, this game tried to redo everything, and people quite frankly are pissed off and don't wanna learn it all over again, with something difficult to adapt to. That and we ask for the same things for 10 years, and consistently they ignore the most basic asks. People I think are fed up with newer versions that do less. 

     

    Emergency 5 built up to be the answer to our dreams and it was a bomb at best, so we ditched it as a community pretty much

    Not to mention it ship with out modding abilities which where only add a month ago.    They basically release and unfinished untested game.  And have done little to nothing to fix it since then.  Then when user say the new edtior is to hard to use there answer is.  It more advance you can do more. 

     

    It might be more powerfull but the learn curb is way to steep it not user friendly.   In mind the only worse release has been sim city 2013.   

  8. I'm having a slight problem using this in multiplayer (On the Steam version). (version 4.5.2)

     

    The Problem: only 1-2 firemen will use the hoses while the others just stand around, and 9/10 they'll spray for 1 second and then stop. Can't attach hoses to trucks, medical can't seem to pick up bodies, etc Essentially there's a lot of missing functions. I have warned those I was playing with to not click "Patrol" in any vehicle, nor as police, "right click" to pull over people because I heard those cause problems (but unsure of what problems)

     

    What Worked In The Past: I also have a retail version (non-steam) installed in a seperate folder with an older Harbor City mod (v4.3) that I used to play with some other buddies, and we never experienced any issues.

     

    So I'm just wondering if it's a conflict with Steam? Because the default EM4/911FR endless play MP works just fine. It's just with the mod active, things seem to go a little screwy so I was wondering if it's a conflict with Steam, or maybe something is different in the update(s) ... like I said I don't know, I just know there's an issue and would really really love it for some help ^_^

    I have played Harbor city mod with steam version of 911 with no almost as long as there been a steam version. have had non of the above issues. On the fire fighter stopping to spray? Do you have a guy assigned to man the pump on engine?

  10. Thank you for the tip. I bought it now and fired it up. I have got to the bridge collapse mission. Not exactly acing it. That monster truck one took out half my crew and a number of vehicles.

    I see the sense in that it takes a while for the modding community to catch up, but I don't see why the devs haven't gone to greater lengths to preserve/build upon the gameplay strong points of the prequel.

    It like because they do not car. conisder what horrible game em5 is. It very clear they do not care.

  11. There is not full mod support, there is still much to do in order to take a mod from EM4 and make it work in EM5, the systems are pretty different especially for models and maps.  Let's be honest that is the bread and butter of most mods out there, so you're looking at an incredible bit of work.  I am not sure how the scripting aspects work in EM5 vs EM4 at all, so I can't even fathom what would have to change to make that work.  Simply put it's not something we have in mind to do with regards to this mod, all of the effort to this point was to make EM4 gameplay more evolved as opposed to trying to make the game look prettier (em5).  As framework aspects go, we would rather stick with EM4 rather than trying to go into EM5 and probably most likely have to redo 90% of what we've done thus far.

     

    Their SDK has been released for EM5 yes, but as to improved function/performance/gameplay that has not been proven yet, this latest "patch" (they call it a DLC I call it a patch) just came out and as far as I know nobody has really worked with it to see what it actually does/is capable of doing.  Don't try to put the cart in front of the horse with figuring well they released some tools, so now it must be a cakewalk to just flip everything over, chances are it is not going to be that easy unless someone makes additional tools to make it possible. I myself don't feel like going into EM5 is really worth it for the step backwards in game play that I experienced in my trial of EM5, my fellow cohorts would have to speak for themselves as I can only speak for me, but I was unimpressed with EM5.

    Acutely the patch was just released for people with cd. Steam user are still waiting. Since the game still on sale for 22 hours I bet the steam version get delayed till after the sell. Which tells me the patch is just more talk and no action.

    There still hardly any document on this mythical editor. I notice they wait to release the patch to CD users (who are likely germans as I have not see any box for the game) Till after the close of bussiness in Germany. In fact I do believe the release came out around 10pm in germany. Ie last minute so they can say the patch came out in Feb.

    Where it be release to steam user much later. Likely after the sells up. So when every finds out that yet another patch did not fix the issues. It would not hurt the sales of there fire sale.

  12. mine is steam version... :( What should I do? I tried many times but I can't Pls help

    right click on the game in steam. Select proptertie then Set launch opition. add -editor Click ok. launch the game. the editor will open. when your done. Remove the edtior from the launch opitions and play the game.

  13. So the patch for the Steam version isn't out yet, right? But if looking at the patch notes, it looks like it finally is worth buying the game, or?

     

     

    If I may ask guys, what kind of % usage do you have on the CPU and GPU while playing the game?.. Is the game utilizing all the CPU cores?.. Is the FPS low even though the % usage for the CPU and GPU isn't maxed out?..

    It still not out on steam. And CPU and GPU usage is barely begin used on my system but it runs like shit. And that on I7 with 16GB of ram and a gtx970m
