  1. Did you use the original texture as a base?

    Based on my limited experience with texture modding for GTA4, my guess is that the texture is off when it comes to the mapping of the model.

    I've never seen templates for any EM4 model around, nor any clue on how to make them or map a model.

    The only thing that I have changed is the skin, so I guess thats the texture. I went through everything to from changing to v3o to upack and back to dds open in paint.net make the changes and save it as a dds again. The skin is in the game, it just doesnt line up correctly.

     

    EDIT: I got it figured out! who knew it could be so easy! turns out the template shrinks some when you open it in paint.net and all I had to do was drag the corner and make it fit the whole image and boom! worked like a charm lol.

  2. Ok guys, I'm sorry for asking this but I can't find it anywhere on the site or google and Ive been trying for 2 days now. I have got a reskin of the USFS utility truck done. I save it as a dds file from paint.net straight into the game and I can see the skin but its not lined up just right on the model. I just see little bits and pieces of it on the white model. Does anyone have tips to get it lined up right for the model?

  3. Hey

    I have been having problems unlocking the dds files. I go to the desired dds file and change it to a v3o file and then go to then editor unpack it, then exit the editor. After I exit the editor I go back to the file and change it back to the dds file and then try to open it in Paint.net and when I try to open the file it gives me an error message. Can some one help with with this problem?

    try opening the editor by"right clicking on the shortcut and clicking "Run as Administrator". Then try to unpack it in the editor. Thats what helped me.

  4. The em4 config. Basically allows you to change settings like the amount of calls your getting and how many at once you want etc. the em4 editer allows you to edit child's of vehicles of objects. It also allows you to edit the map of the mod you playing on. Hope that helped you out...have a great day guys!

    Thanks yall, it did! I'm trying some reskins from another mod now. cant figure out how to get them back into the mod. All I have is a box that says missing mod file lol

  5. The camera has a tendency to drift a lot when first loading a mod. Under one of the menus is "Center Camera", that will bring it back to the map.

    Thanks I will check that out.

     

    EDIT: Hereweard Fyning that worked! thanks a lot man! Now I just have to figure out how to put the reskins back into the mod. All I have for my truck is a box that says missing modfile. What do I need to save it as to make it appear in the game again? I dont know what else to do. I tried the dds converter which apparently doesnt work on windows 7, i tried saving the file from paint.net as a dds file. i tried just renaming the file, I tried to go in and change the v3o to and png file for dds. lol i dont know what else to do.

     

    EDIT:8/29/13

    So I think the skin is in the game. its just not lined up correctly on the model. I can see little bits and pieces so I'm pretty sure the right skin is in the game, but most of the vehicle is white and little bits and pieces are showing up. Is there a tutorial I can read to figure out how to line up the skins right?

     

    EDIT :8/31/13

    So I figured it out! I just had to make the skin match up to the paper size in paint.net program, So easy!

  6. The thing that helped it work for me is right clicking on the editor and running as admin. now I have more problems. when I open up editor and open up LA mod, the screen goes black. I still have my opinions to choose everything but the grid is completely black. Also how do you get the skins back into the game?

  7. Hey I am new to the forums here. I having issues locating my editor, I have tried all options that have been suggested here. (by the way I have 911:FR) When i do the target line for editor and it is giving me a error saying that the specified in the target box is not valid. Make sure the path and file name are correct.

    "C:\Program Files (x86)\WizardWorks\911 - First Responders\Em4.exe"-editor this is the target line I am using.

    Also I did the fix so that i could use the modinstaller that M1 tanker thread was detailing. the one above i just tried to reinstall off of amazon to see if it came in the package but not luck.

    I did download the game from amazon if that is something to do with the issue I apologize for the post I would just like to begin to learn the editor.

    Shiro

    I did the same thing from Tanker and I cant find it either.

  8. ok I need help BARNEY STYLE. I downloaded 911 first responders from amazon and it says the 911 first responders was not properly installed. please reinstall when I try to open the mod installer. so I followed the directions above and nothing. I do not really know computers that much but I have windows 7. Can someone please help me..... with 1st grade directions. Thanks

    Did you follow directions step by step on the first page? I followed those and it worked fine. I have a new problem, I cant find editor now? anyway to find it other than making a target line?

  9. dyson I have downloaded the SD version and I really appreciate you making a special version for people that don't have the nicer end stuff. The Mod is great other than the few bugs and no police station. cant wait for the patch! also if i remove the old manhattan mod 2.0.3 will this mod still work? the older one didnt work for me.

     

    Edit: One thing I forgot to mention. I like the time between calls. not only is it more realistic, but it gives you a little more time to get everything back together.

  10. Hey guys,

    Has anyone had trouble with the ladder trucks showing up? I can call them in and the show up but they are just white but you can see the lights and stuff. I have deleted and reinstalled the mod, is there anything else I can do?

  11. so i downloaded the LA mod for 911 first responders. I purchased the game from atari and downloaded it. I tried to install the mod and it said the actual game cannot be found but i can still install it to my computer. I dont know what else to do? is there a patch i need or another thing I need for mods?

  12. I finally got the graphics working right. I just had to turn the shadows off. Now I have another problem, I can't figure out how to mod it. I tried to download the LA mod and it comes up saying that it cant find the version of the game to install it, but yet I can still install it to my computer. I purchased the game from atari.com and downloaded it. I had the exact same game on my old computer and it worked fine, I could mod it and everything. whats up now?

  13. Wow, this is posted 2x in 2 different topics! I just answered it in the GENERAL TALK section under Emergency 4.

    Please in the future limit your posts of the SAME question to 1 area.

    I know. I tried to delete the other one before i did this one. I figured i'd get in trouble. so you can just reply here and ignore my question over there...what driver should i update to? or where should I look to see if I should update? thanks and sorry...

  14. Might need to RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR.

    To set this, make a shortcut for launching the program on your desktop. Right click on the icon and choose PROPERTIES. In the box that comes up, at the top click on the COMPATIBILITY tab. Put a check mark in the box near the bottom that says RUN THIS PROGRAM AS AN ADMINISTRATOR.

    Some programs, even if you are an administrator level user, still need this "promotion" to run the program correctly. If that doesn't fix it, you might need to adjust your graphics setting in the game. It also doesn't hurt to run an update on your video card driver.

    what driver do i need to update to?

  15. Hey yall,

    So I just got my brand new computer in today. I downloaded 911 first responders from atari and tried to play it without modding anything yet. All it shows is the road lines, and the stuff on the sides like the dispatcher, truck buttons, etc. but the map has just got road lines. The rest of the map looks black or really dark. I can call out trucks and stuff like regular, I just cant see anything. I have reinstalled the game 3 times now and it does the same thing everytime. I have also tried running it as admin. Here are some of the computer specs. if you need more just let me know and how to get there. Any help is apreciated!
