Xplorer4x4

I'm sorry, I didn't write that as clear as I should have. I already checked the animation and its still set on the default setting of none. On the map they are all set to opened. The animations were not messed with.

You were clear. It's set to default...have you TRIED setting it to single? I don't know if this is the problem or not because I havent ever messed with the railroad gates but based on prior experience with similar situations, this might just be your problem.

w00ds traffic is horrible!

Please do every one a favor and keep ignorant comments to your self. Just because it is w00ds map doesn't mean I haven't altered paths, added paths, altered spawn intervals, etc. Not to mention the original map was missing key things like triggers in some intersections to help detect traffic flow(such as the one lane construction area near the freeway on/off ramps). One example is that there is a path a long the bottom of the map that runs in to the airport and curves around by the police station. When you redirected traffic on this path, it crossed over the path for traffic exiting the airport parking lot. This caused massive traffic jams at this intersection so I altered the trajectory of the paths so there was a bit of clearance between the two so that both sides could make left turns with out interfering with each other. The VOs for some of the traffic lights have been adjusted to account for more traffic coming from certain directions rather then others.

I am a night owl, always up late at night. Me and my ex-gf were living together in an apartment. So we crash out at like maybe 3AM or so, about usual for us. Awhile later we get woken up to that infamous BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM knock on the neighbors door...knowing these arseholes and not realizing it was only 6AM, I think it is one of thier friends being "cute." I peak through the blinds before I am about to go light some ones ass on fire, figuratively speaking of course, Then I see a Sheriff cruiser and deputy so I thought better of it. I go to take a leak and come back and my ex says FBI.....it took me a second to truly process that thinking she has to be kidding.Looked outside and sure enough I see 2 agents, one with a vest and one wearing a classic navy blue tee shirt with gold lettering...I guess there was something like 8 agents there. They spent about 4-5 hours going through the apt.Turns out the guy got busted for child pron.

I figured Chicago, and bigger cities like it up North, would have some sort of system in place to keep that from happening.

Many new vehicles to the respective fleets:

Survey time:

Should hazmat and ALS RA be parked in back of FS2 or move FS2 to allow for each unit to have it's own bay like at FS1?

wjhy u only putting 4 units in why dont you turn the mod into a full chicago mod like manhattan v3

From the OP

"All units of the series, plus some units of the Chicago Fire Department will be present in the mod!"

It does, Ive already checked that. Its still by default.

Exactly, you dont want it on looped, you want it on single. A single animation going down when triggered, and a single animation going up when triggered(or not triggered so to speak). Loop means in a non-stop loop.

He literally just started the mod....

Do you the layout of the stations yet?

Actually, I started this a year or two ago. It was a WIP back when I took hiatus and I been busting ass on it since I returned. So a release might be sooner then you think.

Technically you could use a program like Audacity(I think thats the name, been awhile, basically an audio editing program) to adjust the volume level on these particular sound effects.

I can't say thats the only problem, but those are the first two that come to mind. Check the LA Mod Alterations forum. Theres a pinned topic about the alarm in there.

W00Ds maps, eh? I'll check this out for a change of pace from the LA mod map, even if it means coming back from all my changes.

 

Sounds like you came up with a lot of ideas I ended up having with my personal submod based on YSBs. I got all my police vehicles spawning at start, complete with the same staffing functions as fire vehicles (except for turning on or off auto-staffing which I might add), and three patrolling vehicles. Beats having to manually send everything out for sure, and gave me the delays in call command dispatching that I wanted.

Psst check your PMs

In your case you could make a transition fairly easy for the most part. I prefer Araxis Merge, but you may try Beyond Compare or any similar software thats lets you compare two scripts/docs side by side. From there merge your scripts in to mine. Then place your VOs and if needed add any new commands you made to the prototypes. Not hard just a bit time consuming.

Fire Stations:

The fire stations are not going to be seeing a lot of extra units parked outside as was the case with the OG 4x4 submod. I have chosen three real life stations as the basis for the project and given the real life apparatus on these stations, I think people will be pretty content with the units already on the map. Plus the usual extra apparatus will be available from off the map!

Ideas/Suggestions:

Also if people have any suggestions I am open to ideas but this mod is pretty feature packed as it is so it might wait until the next project but the offer is on the table for suggestions and ideas!

And now for some info!!!!!!!!

I am not going to release all the details just yet! Little by little!

So what can we expect from this project? ALOT!!!!!!!!! New models, new call buttons, some new features based on classic features we all know and love!

First, lets start out with some info on the po-lice!

1. A new LAPP Crown Vic was added with a nice pretty LED lightbar.

2. A new LAAP Chevy Tahoe complete with LED lighting package courtesy of the light guru himself CFD!

3. SPAWNING! - Don't you hate how you have to take time to send out PD units to various points of the map? Forget it!

    3A. Both LAPP Crown Vics will be spawn at the LAPP station and staffed at the start of the game!

    3B. LAAP Crown Vic and Tahoe will will spawn at the LAAP station and staffed at the start of game!

    3C. A CHP unit(undecided which one of the three) will spawn on the freeway and be staffed at the start of the game!

    3D. All of the above units have specially designated patrol paths. The LAPP wil patrol in and near the port. The LAAP will patrol near the airport(sadly they patrol a bit further out then I would like but I kept them as close as possible to the airport)!

    3E. After the units above have spawned, they will automatically start patrolling after a few seconds!

This is a beta release and bugs are expected. Some engines and units serve as place holders for the final models. So things may not be 100% accurate in terms of models at this time. Some units are missing unit images, and such. Some scripts are still being tweaked. That said you should be able to enjoy this with out much issue.The final version will likely be hosted on my dedicated server allowing fast downloads and have very little wait time and nice installer..although technically the mod installer works great, just sucks at compression.

This mod requires Narco's light pack. If you are getting white boxes where the lights should be, it means that the light pack was not installed properly (if at all). It also requires these extra coronas: http://www.filesonthe.net/CVk3M

Hopefully he can count...

That's what i get for trying to count when I just woke up lol

is this done yet?

Read the 4th post up and tell me what you think,,

Have you modified the script at all? If so post it.

lol on a serious note, Hoopah is right when he said start off simple. Rather then going all out from scratch pick a mod and start tweaking that until you really get the hang of it.

Is the WAV file Mono AKA Single channel?

As for the lights, when your in the light editing part of the editor, in the bottom right corner you will see three letters R, G, B each with a number beside it. This stands for Red, Green, Blue, respectively. You need to set the number according to the shade of blue you want. I believe soemthing like 10, 10, 100 is going to get you a blueish white light. Where as 10. 10, 200 gives you a much more true blue.

In the game directory there is a file called logfile.txt attach that to a post here. In the mean time try updating your graphics card/chip drivers.

Yeah it does seem to be some sort of coordinate. Something about figuring out the closest unit to send.

Its in the Battalion Chief script:

http://pastebin.com/7Y3tWz2R
 

So looking in the battalion chief call script, I see things like this:

if(Station1)                {                                    v.PushActionExecuteCommand(ACTION_APPEND, DUMMY_GATES, Caller, 5, false);                    float dx = 1050.f, dy = 0.f, dz = 0.f;

What is float dx?

Doors have there own prototypes and model/.v30 files. You need to edit the v3o files for those and then you can find the prototypes for the doors in the Objects section I believe.
