w00d

how do i download it i see no clickable link

New download link available with the correct files

Check again there where taken offline because I forgot a very import file... But the first mirror is up. A rapid share download link is coming up in 5 minutes

You need to look at the pics and make the changes yourself ofcourse!

Joking ofcourse, w00d is uploading v1.1 with .eft (map textures) files now

THE FILENAME IS STIL VERSION 1.0 < Yeah I forgot to change it, but what the heck, you can't have it all . So the links that you see now are the good ones ( I hope )

Yes, I got the same problem. there is like, tons of grass where the highway should be haha

Yep I am uploading the new files now, but they are quite big, 25mb each. So it will take a few minutes.

I am now uploading to Fileshost.com, so just a sec or 2 and then the links will be back :$

Ok little stupid moment here, I totally forgot the eft files. But they are very large, 25mb! so I think the best is to find another filehost? I don't know if this forum can handle this.

hmm crap, with version did you download?

The new map is available!

Check the startpost for the download links. I will at the bugs to the knows issue/bug list at the startpost, so check that list before posting one.

Notice that I don't have time this week to spend on bug fixen.

Then release the mod with both maps: One renamed as dfreeplay.e4m, the other as freeplay.e4m.

Don't forget to put them in a folder structure (Los Angeles Mod v1.7/Maps).

Hoppah

currently working on that one

Did you add things like the bird flu to your map?

Yes if have 2 events with the bird flu, but not yet the biohazard clouth and zombie.

Ok so there will be a deluxe version and a normal version. But the normal one is completely untested, because I only played the deluxe version.

If they want it, release it.

We're talking about small files (under 10 mb's), so you can easily update them later.

I'll keep this topic clean until thursday.

I will make a install file tonight.

does this mean that is deluxe only or can it be played on the normal 911:fr?

When he releases the map as dfreeplay.e4m it means it only can be played by EM4 Deluxe.

EM4 also supports the campaign map so I suggests he renames the files to freeplay.e4m, so everyone can play it.

Ok no problem, but I thougth that deluxe has more types of events? suchs as sniper en bird flu? or am i wrong?

well if I release it now, then we might have a topic full of bugs and people that are asking for support.

Yeah ok, no problem at all. I also have maybe some question to you about the log file for debugging. ( is there a way to contact you privately if nessary ? )

it seems to me that there are 4-5 buildings that have the ambulance helicopter landing on top or just a cross. i was wondering if these are just visual or actually small hospitals or something?

The hospital path functions for the hospital. The Police station is for the police chopper. the other 2 ( "cityworks" and army ) are functioning, but only manually. So you can land a chopper there ( of your choice ). But you must land it there manually.

so do the fire stations spawn the same trucks and all that?

Yes, it is compatible with 1.7. So the same trucks etc.

I don't really with some of the positions of the stations, but you got my ok to release it.

Make sure you ONLY upload the files you changed! That means an .e4m (the map with objects) and a .dds file (minimap) renamed to 'freeplay'. Can you do that?

Release it in a package like I did for the patch for v1.7. That means, a folder called 'Los Angeles Mod v1.7' and a subfolder called 'Maps'.

Put it in a .zip file and use the Attachment function on this forum to share it.

Besides that, it's YOUR responsibility to deal with bugs and problems.

If you don't or can't fix bugs and people start whining at me, I have to remove the attachment again.

I'm also not going to test it, because I don't have time for it. If it turns out good, I will make this topic sticky.

I hope you agree with the above.

Hoppah

Well about the position of the station, we can discuss about that, but I think you will have to see it in practice. I will make an update file as you requested. ( You say freeplay.em4 but it's now dfreeplay.em4, hope that itsn't problem? )

But about the support, offcourse people shouldn't go to you if things don't work.

There is only one problem, I DON'T have the time this week to fix anything. I have an big exam ad the end of this week, so I have to study. So I think that it's smarter to release the map on Thursday Night so I can do give the support that people want / need.

Verry nice:)

I am making a map for my mod to.

Can i test the yours?

Well yes no problem, but I want to hear form Hoppah first. Not only his emergency buildings are in the map, but also some other stuff. If Hoppah says yes, then you can have a go to.

Sorry I didn't noticed the second fire station. my fault sorry. Well in that case you are right. And yes I also have cars patrolling the city so thats not really a big problem.

And about those villa's, it is more realistic if somethings the vehicles have to drive a bit longer before arriving at the scene.

No sorry needed , you can't see it all in the overviews.. And indeed about those villa's, that was my thought to.

So this map would allow people who own 911FR or EM4 to play the bird flu event?

Eh yeah, but there are only two bird flu events I think..

Have you make the patrol paths and more?

offcourse man, it is fully compatible with 1.7 so also the patrol path, sniper places, missing persons , no zombies.. ( maybe later ) and no biohazard clouth. But there are some Bird flues, but also not that much.

Maybe some things for later.

And I almost forgot: there is a small army camp, where a black hawk can land ( manually ), but it doesn't have any funtion further. I can't get the army's cars to spawn there, because they where in the same category as some police vehicles.

And there is a "cityworks" where you can land a rescue chopper, and the tow car, crane and engineer spawn there.

The map looks nice indeed. I also agree about the position of the Police Station. I also see that the firestation is quite in a corner. But let's give it a try. Maybe we can play it soon!

The police stations is indeed in the corner, but most of the time you have cars patrolling around ( well i have ) so that should be a probem. The Firestation 1 is able the respond quite fast to all points and firestation 2 covers the inner city.

Only the villa's in the south area are little far away for the vehicles, but you can't have it all .

Keep checking the startpost for new and updates.

Pictures say more then words, so here are some screenshots: (the red markers are new things in 1.1, the orange markers are "new" things from 1.0)

I am just playing around with the light "editor" to change or add some lights to vehicles, but how can I rotate the vehicles in the light editor so I can better align the lights? Or is there a way to only raise the light , ( such as raising an object in the editor with the Alt key. )

There should be a way to do that, now it's almost impossible to align the let's say the braking lights of a vehicle
