Have you just tried completely removing LAMod and reinstalling it? :/

I started playing EM3 and then EM4 because I use to play I think the First or Second Emergency game. If I recall right... the first mission of whatever game I played it was a basic car wreck on a two lane highway in what looked to be the country. You'd have to just redirect traffic and save a few people. Then I remember there being something about a search and rescue where you had to chase a person down and find another. All very simple, but I was really young so it was difficult for me. I've since then lost the game... My point... were there any good missions on number 1 to even recreate?

Was it Hoppah ( or could have been another one of the big guys ) say in regards to driving with the invisible cop was not possible since he can't follow... So would a script be able to keep moving him a few feet forward? And really all you'd have to do is change him to a stop and have traffic stop and not redirect... I think redirect would just cause a multitude of traffic jams more so on busy roads.

Edit: I actually managed to figure it out. It was either ctrl click or shift click. One or the other. Then you can shrink or expand the lines. =D In the attached file you'll see the modified pathing for one of w00ds maps. If you notice it stats out small then tappers out to become a normal pathing size. Can someone explain how to make it small like that? I'm not really sure how to achieve mini routes instead of the bigger ones.

Well, not really. It says you plan to modify the other maps, I was unsure if you were going to modify them for the next round or if it was just a "when ever I get around/feel like it" comment. Just wondering if it's up there on the to do list or an eventually thing.

Isn't this just a matter of where you put "Roads" in the editor? Don't the emergency vehicles by default follow the "road" paths so if you lined it up on the center line and not center of the line wouldn't that be the same thing? I'd much rather have a farther distance as to which vehicles notice emergency vehicles and stop sooner.

Will this 'new' version be avaliable for both of woods maps? I don't use Hoppah's ( I think I'm one of the few who is not a fan of it. )and it would be neat to see your mod being used for those or can you share any of your thoughts on doing it for those?

At one point in time I was trying to add some of the LA Mod things to this like stations and such, but got annoyed because I could not find locations I liked for it. I'd really like to use this map with the whole LA mod system ( even if it's nothing near LA ). One thing that made me giggle really hard is that everything seems Russian but the airplane was like GOL or something Brasilian if I recall right.

I know this is a few days old but, If so, it was more than likely the host which was Media Fire. The likeliness of getting a trojan from this is rather low. I just downloaded it and scanned with avast! and nothing came up. I'm pretty sure you're getting a false positive. Please confirm you there is a virus before saying such and hyping people up. Did you even check if the system said it was this software? Or the download site? Or if it was a completely difference location on your HD?

Yeah, realism seems to be a major problem when it comes to vehicles actions to emergency vehicles as well as the vehicles themselves. Now, I think one issue you might run into is when the vehicle pulls over, those turning will too, and that might cause traffic jams right there. Maybe the ideal thing to do would be to increase the distance as which they stop for police to maybe 3 total car lengths ahead? That way is leaves part of the oncoming lane open for the police to bypass and oncoming cars should be stopped as well.

Haha, Wow. Did you really feel the need to bring back a post from August?

Honestly I wish I knew how to do it. I tried to at one point in time by giving the follow values when the police pulls over a car a random event, I tried a few ways and was forced to ask Hoppah for help... To which I think he's added it as a default to the game now. If someone wants to give some of these a try feel free, I'd love to see this in action and want to try it out. Help? Ha. Right. It would be more like drag me along while they did it. I can read a script and understand parts how they work and what they do... But to start from scratch. Neh. I normally end up in the corner rocking back and forth crying.

I've wondering if some events would be possible and to what degree within the free play game. I was re-skinning a brush truck white with the Metro Freeway Service Patrol logo and it got me to wondering if it's possible to add minor incidents like flat tire, out of fuel and even things like engine trouble which would require sending out a Tech agent and fixing the vehicle. I remember there being something like this in the game or was it EM3? I know we have a lot of Federal Unit, but one of my favorite is not there. The US Marshal Service plays an interesting role in protection and fugitive recovery. Can events like scripting in "Federal Agents request assistance" where the goal would be to prevent a person from getting killed as well as arresting the villain and moving the target to a safe location on the map. - Furthermore is it possible to spawn a mini-version of the VIP Escort mission onto the Free Play map, where you have a prisoner transport that comes from off map and takes fire. Minus the whole stopping and starting ( which would be done under it's own will ). Next I was wondering about using the ATF or DEA ( which we don't have? ) units for things like weapons sales which could be very basic like arresting the two people and searching the general area for weapons ( Ie a house or so ). This could be furthered if we could bring narcotics into this, IE drug busts. Similar events could be set up to happen near Train stations or subways and airports to give Boarder Patrol and Customs more use within the game. That or add illegal aliens. Are things like this possible to be added to a game? Is there abilities to script this in into a free play world or would it have to stick strictly to missions? Remember I'm not asking for the features just wondering if it could logically be inserted into the current system.

Thats only if the vehicles are spawns and not just added with the editor. If he using scripts to spawn them, then I'm sure there might be some consideration given to this being added, if he's doing this using the editor and just placing the vehicles that way, I highly doubt Hoppah will give it the green light since anyone can do it in a few seconds.

So why does Siren06 sound like an arcade room? Is there a video on youtube that shows vehicles using these particular sounds?

Source? A soldiers opinion is not a source.

We bomb all the time. It's called testing. We even run big military bases on your soil. You're our property! Yes, you need more respect for you're troops. They're way under-geared and constantly complaining about not having adequate weapons. Edit: What the fuck is with that fail riddle?! I'm not sure if Coventry is apart of that. I spent about a Week there and some time in London. What I was doing there? You're too young for me to say.

Yes, but you've yet to present a situation where the National Guard is even needed. Infact, they're kind of pointless to the game. Unless looting is added to the situation after an earthquake... Then what? They simply patrol around and do nothing? "Fear Tactics" are not in this game. Well... Other then when there is a shooting. Almost all situations can be handled by Local Police ( Including things like SWAT ), State Police and Federal. Military is rarely needed unless it's a massive natural disaster and then you run into the legalities of having them preform "policing functions". There are ALOT of issues that come into play with that. I'm pretty sure that the active military may NOT preform policing functions unless in an event of military law or so. Which... as said before... normally only happens in natural disaster . On a way off note: You're from West Midlands? I'm pretty sure I was there during Oct/Nov of '09.

Limeys. They're so adorable. -pokes BritishArmyReserveCadets.- <3 Hoppah! Can we keep him in a box if we agree to take him out.. and water him? -- Did the National Guard Louisiana use weapon mounted vehicles during their past few hurricanes? I'd not assume they'd be loaded, but more as a sign of force to scare potential criminals? Also, was the Texas National Guard involved in Louisiana during all this?

XD You know that's going to happen even if you do list out a step-by-step guide with videos, pictures and live tech support. But any reason this was posted here and not here: http://forum.emergency-planet.com/index.php?showforum=6

I find snipers work best.

1: A lot of times I'll have police cars in the area more near to an emergency than the Bat chief. If I have multiple movements of Fire Fighters, it can be a bit difficult to find him and much more simple to simply have a police call him to the scene and use him to dispatch the emergency vehicles. Own personal fun? 2: Hot key tends to be a bit glitchy and sometimes likes to yank me across the map away from what ever emergency I'm at. On a larger map that has issues with rendering and speed... that can be annoying. 3: Personal fun?

Can someone explain how or write up a script for Call Bat chief that I can give to the FF and Police. I'm not really sure how the call functions work or where to go to even look at it and figure it out myself. I prefer to learn how to edit thing so maybe a finished file along with a quick walkthrough on how it was done or possibilities to edit it. =D Kthxbai.

I've modified my version a lot... Small pointless edits here and there. However... This map really need more events.. more barricaded/hostage situations, more car wrecks... these are things I've yet to figure out how to do.

What I did is simply ran the installer into it's own folder on my desktop then just moved the .script and other files... then added it to w00ds map. You can use it on any map you want with that way...
