I can't believe that we don't have standpipes on buildings instead of fire Hydrants in front of buildings. Here I have Pix of where I put a set and a photo of a real one. Hope to see these in the future of LA Mod or any other USA Mods.

Wow at least no one was hurt. I was a neighboring firemen @ Woodlawn Vol. Fire Co back in the 70's.

Hey,

I want to replace the BLS ambulance in Station 2 with an ALS Ambulance. I've read through the posts, and the script, and I can't quite figure it out. Can I get some help?

If it were me I rather have the Large Rescue Ambulance @ station 2 with Ladder truck and existing engine.

i got a problem by the fire station at the top of the map a van gets stuck & the only wait to get in out of the way is Blow it up & tow it away will this isue ever be fixed

Click on the link below and follow these instructions. You have 3 vehicles on the same path and you have 1 by the PD Sta @ traffic light on a different path. Look, go to edit and click on that vehicle and click "EDIT" and than click on edit traits. Than Vehicle path.

Vehicle Path Fix

"Q", For Moder's that Know.

I set some of my vehicle traffic to 0.3 and 0.5 and I'm still getting heavy traffic flow. What can I do? I am using LA Mod 2.0 and latest patch and Additional units mod.

the best way to fix it is have a atmy helicopter landed in a place where theres no traffic then when a car cause the road to back up call them in have the army sott the car & then tow it away be ure to have fire department on scene to cool the car why you wait on the tow truck this works for me also at the start of freeplay a van always get stuck at start up by the fire station at the tp of the map hope if another version of the LA mod comes out they fix this issue

Go to this link as I fixed the van sitting still problem.

The Still Van & other vehicles on same path

With these problems this game is more stressful then dealing with a Amtrak train crash with 80 + people hurt in real life {And yes I worked one}

Yea that is no fun. Are you from the Middle River Md area? I do recall that situation where the train engineer was smoking dope. I also was with a Baltimore County Vol fire co.

I get frustrated every time I play.

Why's that?

That was just for a pic. I don't have that permanent. I like the idea that being a Federal building / Court house don't you?

nice one u added gas station i added FBI station

Can you send pics of the FBI station?

I found that the building to the left of construction site is perfect for Federal building or court house and federal vehicles can spawn at garage entrance. Here are the pics.

Widescreen 1280 x 800, have fun!

This is now my wall paper for my desk top. Tnx

I went into the Engine02 file in the vehicles folder. I had previously copied <unit id="JAWS OF LIFE" /> from the usar squad and I added it to the Engine02 file. I also changed the staffing and the amount of seats in some vehicles.

I added the jaws of life to a few units like, the Heavy rescue, Large Ambulance, Hazmat and LEV. I do not know how to change vehicles @ stations, so I changed the staff of the hazmat to FF's and added Jaws of life and fire hose. I replace the hazmat staff when game starts. I did not change the files as you don't need to. I went to edit and click on the vehicles one at a time and went to edit straights and added the Jaws of life.

I would suggest moving the spawn point for ambulances to the underground parking ramp, but thats just me. Otherwise, congrats on a job well done. Actually looks pretty good.

Now you are thinking what I was thinking. What does it take to move the spawn point to garage?

Remeber that this is an idea and this was just for my use and willing to allow Hoppah to use the idea.

Just let me have the credit.

Will someone give me a step by step instructions on how to change VO spawn locations to the garage for Ambulance's? Is Here anymore I have to do in order to change a spawn's location?

I also like to know, is there anymore I have to do other than putting vo's for additional parking for the police station? Maybe a script?

No, I don't. But I also don't expect and entire topic to be turned into a place to report people. That's what the REPORT button is for. If someone has a problem with a signature, all they have to do is:

A: use the report feature

B: contact the user and advise them to take a look at their signature

Or C: Contact a mod via PM and discuss it with them.

He has a point about the report button. Best wish's.....

I personally removed my own admin status. Don't want to be an admin anymore. Also changed some other things to my profile and closed my PM box. Some people are kinda 'report-button-happy'. I just can't get rid of the Paypal banner for some reason.

Sorry to see this change as it was nice having you as an admin. I think you handled everything well! But Jesus ******* ****? man that is bad...LOL I don't even say that my self. I admire you hoppah and I know its not going to be the same. Best wish's.

I changed both of the speed lines on both of the .xml file of the unit and they are still going the same speed.. also the traffic hasnt changed one bit!

After changing the speeds, did you save the file?

I added a Texico station,BK and Market as there was none by the Hospital.

I also added an under ground parking for the Hospital.

Go to your free play Parameters file and lower your traffic volume. There are about 6 or 7 sections in there and set them about 5 or 10 points below. It works for me.

Go to this thread to solve your 4 stuck vehicle problem and be back to normal.

It would be nice to see a SanFran mod anytime soon.

I fixed the problem with those vehicles. They no longer stand still. They move like the rest of them. I fixed those vehicles by going to editor and highlight the vehicle than click on edit. I took snap shot at repair and did alteration on edit and its done.

There were a few vehicles stuck near intersections for no season. I took a frap shot and will get more later. I like to get these vehicles tow assessable. If its possible, tell me how? There is a few others and its driving me crazy

I downloaded the patch onto my game and now when i play freeplay there is cars on the road that dont move and i cant get them to go away it causes major traffic jams and i cant play.

Same for me as well. some near intersections and also @ intersections. I shoot them and take out the fire than tow it a way. Than another one and another one. It keeps happening. I was fine till I download the patch.

I have the EXACT same issue as MonkeySquasher... I have been avoiding posting because I enjoy figuring it out for myself, but I have gotten this far and I just cannot figure out how to make the second ladder return to FS2... Am I reading right that it has something to do with using the editor?

I think the Hazmat shouldn't be @ sta 2. The ladder truck should be @ sta2. The hazmat should be just an extra unit like the rescue boat. It should come on the map from the north heading south @ left side of Hospital.

I think you can use this with V2.0.

It means that you can only use the units that are on the map. There are units at the stations so you never really need any more. You can still purchase some vehicles if you need them but a lot of them become too expensive to purchase.

use the cheat for more money..........

I like the idea of having multible maps. Also have a retro mod like the 90's mod and than put it on one of the maps. I saw only one engine on 90's mod. I like the idea of adding the water tender to it and putting a Seagrave engine and later truck from the 1990's. Is it possible to have a video of a slow motion step by step on how to do each mod? Like doing reskinning and other things.

Hi guys. I don't know from where came the problem, but i can't use the cheats in 2.0. I think, the problem is coming from the keyboard. Did anyone have this problem?

I don't have that problem I cheat with extra cash.

You have to tweak things in the editor and the scripts (if i'm not mistaken)

I don't know a whole lot about it, so I just make due with some of the BS calls. you're gonna get them in real life anyway.

Also, I know that the limited water supply discussion has been tossed around. Something to consider, maybe you could make it so that an engine or ladder can't pump unless it's being fed by hydrant or tanker. There's no changing the water supply, it's more or less just a switch.

Just a thought

When I was a firefighter back in the 70's, out engines had 500 gal water tanks and we would have first engine rap a hose line to a hydrant and then drive engine to the seen than next engine would hook that hose to the engine @ the hydrant and the engine @ the Hydrant has a 4 1/2" black drafting hose. Or we would have a hose unit with 2 reels of 4 1/2" rubber angus brand hose. I believe it had 500 feet per reel. Regardless we had an engine hooked up to a hydrant supplying other engines with water.
