    Why can't the local FD move out at night? When I call them at night, no volunteer fireman comes. I always have 
    to call the fire brigade from the neighboring towns

    I noticed this too. At it's peak, MPFD can only have 4 guys for 2 of the 3 trucks, all of which are 2 man staffed units. If you want to use all 3, you need to have two guys on the engine, one in the tanker, and one in the brush. That's how I'd do it.

  2. @bama1234 I understand you are one of the devs for the Montana mod, right? Well, do you know how many officers can the MPPD control box call out, like what's the max here? Also, can you like bump up the number of volunteers, and also allow them to respond POV to the station 24/7, please? And can you also allow the MHP and MPPD officers to use bulletproof vests, like with the BCSO deputies?

    Yes, that does work if you can catch one of the guys off the tanker, I have done it before. Sometimes I had to have the tanker drive back to the station and drop of the passenger to get the brush truck.

    Hey, do you know how many officers does the Monida Pass Police have in the game?

    Oh my God I can't believe that actually works! I can now cheat MPFD's staffing shortage! (I don't have the game itself, but I do have the mod installed) Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!!!

    P.S: Itchboy, sorry for cheating the MPFD staffing shortage Actually, not sorry!

  5. @itchboy Hi. I'm just wondering if it's possible to dispatch all 3 units at the MPFD station, with 2 guys on the engine, one in the brush truck, and one on the tanker. Say I dispatch both the engine, and the tanker, and I steal one of the tanker guys to be on the brush. Would that actually work?

    Hi all,

    I've been playing EM4 for forever now, and I've been wanting to get into modding and get involved with the community. So, I thought I'd do something super simple first and share it. 

    One of my favorite mods is the Montana mod version 2.0.1, I love the feature where you can page volunteer firefighters whenever there's a fire run. However, to add an extra layer of realism to the mod, I added a fire siren/whistle that will activate right after you page the volunteers. To install this mod, simply go into the mod folder, then go to audio, then miscellaneous, then scroll down to "Volunteer Pager" and replace it with the file I've provided. 

    If you'd like to use this for your mod, that's fine by me, I just ask that you give me credit. The pager sound effect may belong to one of the mod developers, so definitely clear it with them first.

    Yo, I have some generic siren noises for the Montana mod (now 2.5), I got it from the Beaverhead County website.

    So I can't lie, I'm running out of mods that interest me. As I'm from the UK, I am mainly looking for UK mods, I currently have installed (UK wise) the London Mod, London Multiplayer Mod, N&S V1 and V2, the Manchester Airport Mod, West Midlands Mod, the Kent mod and the Welfordshire Mod. 

    As someone from the UK, I would like to see more UK mods made. I am aware there are some, however majority have been discontinued and I can't find download links, for example the Brighton mod/West Sussex.

    I would like to see more EM4 mods in development, for the UK. I was wondering if anyone knew of any UK mods that are currently in development, and if so when will they be released?

    There's the Welfordshire mod (both the original mod, and the V3 mod), and the Pontypandy mod (yes it's very real)

    you on coke mate?(just kidding)

    911 FR is em4

    that is why they are in the same topic as em4 and em4 deluxe....

    Emergency 4 | Emergency 4 Deluxe | 911: First Responders

    But you can buy EM4 and or deluxe on amazon, and other webshops

    Hi. Are there any physical stores that might have the game in stock?

    Hi. I'm just wondering if you intend on introducing higher ranking police officers for the Montana Mod 2.5 version, such as police sergeants for example. I know the police sergeant is a thing in the City of Angels mod, so I'm curious as to whether you plan on extending that to Montana as well.

    Hey all, I have a little pet project I wish to share with you all when it's completed. 

     

    THE PONTYPANDY SUBMOD FOR WELDFORSHIRE V1

    As explained in this disaster of a thread, the Weldforshire creator is 100% okay with his assets being used and released. 

     

    For those of you unaware, Pontypandy is the fictional Welsh village from the popular children's show "Fireman Sam."

    I plan on recreating the iconic units, as well as some original units. (like police cars and ambulances, which are not seen in the show)

    Updates will be slow, this is just a little pet project of mine after all.

    Thanks for reading!

     

    As of Season 14, there are Ocean Rescue, Mountain Rescue, Animal Rescue, SAR, and even police units in the show, the police being the newest of them all. However, there is no proper ambulance service.

    Why are there no volunteers at night? The Fire Department cant go out at night. In Germany most of the Volunteer Fire Departments can go out 24/7.

    That's what I was going to say! Why are the MPFD people only available in the day? (Except for the chief and dispatcher)

    Late 2000s Ford Expedition I believe. It wasn't me who made that choice.

    That's definitely a bug I'll have to fix.

    Thank you as always for finding this stuff out. You saw the Mack model I recently did and I think you can already figure out what I actually wanted it for.

    Sadly no.

    Thank you so much!

    I like doing this kind of research, I am a stickler for realism in all forms of 911 simulation. Can't mod to save my life but I can sure dig through legalese with.. ease. 

    I've been trying to get in contact with MHP but their website appears to be offline and I can't seem to find a phone number that works. If anyone has an email address or phone number for MHP handy, I'd be happy to use it.

    However, I'm pretty confident that they wouldn't tell me anything that I didn't find searching through Montana's emergency vehicle statute. 

    I think you're correct in saying that POVs in Montana are not emergency vehicles. There's this guy on YouTube, says he's VFD in Montana. Reds on POVs does not equal emergency lights like on a cop car, ambulance, rescue vehicle, or fire truck. The reds on a POV are just like the greens in Alberta, Ontario, or Quebec. No sirens. No rule breaking. No emergency vehicle status. Doesn't matter if you're a chief.

    I have 2.0.1 amd 2.5 stashed away still. It'd be nice to share them here. It's not like Bama was ever seeking monetization for his work unlike some devs. No name's mentioned.. 😜 So what is the true harm of releasing them under some kind of shareware licensee. Not sure if Bama is still around these days but if not, what's the big issue? Like he is going to file some sort of lawsuit for releasing his work claiming he lost out on thousands of dollars. I can't see any lawyer in their right mind take such a case! I personally hope my work will be shared in any way shape or form for as long as there is someone out there who wants to play it or use it for their own mod in some way. Credit would be nice, but at the end of the day, we are all here to have fun. We shouldn't be worried about silly lawsuits. Worse case scenario would be if he made a DMCA complaint, In which case,  remove the content, and be good to go. Stan has used the same hosting company for ages and surely once DMCA is not going to cause any more harm than say a speeding ticket. 

    Oh thank you very much! I was thinking that the older versions of the mod are gone for good. For me to hear that someone still has copies of a few is a relief.

    Both of these things are intentionally capped by script. Adjusting them without knowing how the code works can cause undesired behavior. 

    I am still on the fence with how I will arrange things in the coming updates to the mod. Specifically, I can't have more BCSO cars until I make all the bases needed for them, which could take however long. I don't want to include repeats of existing vehicles, for sake of pumping the numbers up.

    Regarding volunteer firefighters, the reason I asked for people's real life POV's was a fun way of adding more volunteer personnel to the mod so that more personnel can be playable.

    Thank you for doing the research on this one. I have evidence now and I can make that judgement call with the mod. I'll have it be courtesy lights by default (as it is now) and sort out the lights/sirens commands later on.

    I still don't know how I'll proceed with that because Dillon's batt chief appears to also be a POV, while Lima VFD has a dedicated vehicle. Maybe I'll keep their speed the same but remove the sirens from the 2 chief vehicles.

    Ok, thx.
