try reinstalling the game, if that doesn't work, try looking in the editor if for some reason there might be something blocking the entry

I am wondering if it is possible to make new freeplay missions, if so, how? and how hard is it?

This is a good idea, maybe after this you could do one for emergency 4 too.

I don't see anything that says target or  "C:\Program Files (x86)\sixteen tons entertainment\Emergency 4\Em4.exe"  in it when I go to properties.

Hmmmmmm, watch this video, and if that doen't work, could you send me some pics of each step you do before you can't find "target"

Can you help with editing in general? I just need to know how to get the the editor on the steam version on windows 10.

Right click on the shortcut, go to "Properties" then click on the "shortcut" tab, then click on the text next to "target:" hit the space bar key on your keyboard and type "-editor" without the quotation marks. the whole text should look like this:    "C:\Program Files (x86)\sixteen tons entertainment\Emergency 4\Em4.exe" -editor

If you want to, I know that theres a video on youtube about this and some other functions to do with the editor.

In the editor, go to Edit>Materials in the top menu, there you can mess around with the traits of the materials in the game which correspond with the material you pick when creating a fire object, I'm pretty sure you can make fires harder to put out there, but I'm not sure how to make it spread slower, I believe to do that, you must experiment with that orange-red sphere that you see when you go to make the fire object.

I'm pretty sure id like Chicago to be the city.

Yes the map is from scratch as I'm not a mapper I am doing the basics to it and I think it looks ok for a non mapper and script or the scripting needs tweaking massively as some of the things don't work that should do like adding more units to the game and also sorting out the missing units we don't have IE the units from backdraft E17 and T46 but we don't have a modeller to do this I'm a skinner and advanced lighting and basic mapping that I'm learning 

That's cool, good luck getting a good modeler and fixing the scripts!

Wow!, This mod looks awesome! Great job! is it going to include a new map?

Hello, I'd like some help lighting, I know how to add, copy, place, and delete lights, change the flash rate, and the corona size, type of corona, what type of light it is,

However, have no Idea how the polygons work, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I won't consider that a snorkel however an actually tower truck.

 

To answer your question.... No where.  That looks pre 1990 and to my knowledge there is very little to nothing older units.  You would have to make it yourself I am afraid.

ah, I see, thank you!

I believe there's a newer version in the Brooklyn BOF mod 1.5, but im not sure if you can use it.

the medical bus can be found in one of the manhattan or Brooklyn mods I think.

Hi, I'm making a private mod for myself and want to know if I can find a snorkel ladder model like this one somewhere? Thanks

What "tiller script"? Do you mean for a tiller truck like this one? Not sure if that's possible, and in addition I'm not a big scripter. But I'll see what I can do.

Yeah, for the tiller trucks, I always thought they looked pretty cool in emergency 4 and probably better in em5.

That's awesome! for the city in the American mod, I would prefer either LA, or Chicago, do you think it would be possible to remake the tiller script? If not I'd rather have Chicago, I just like how their rigs look, Chicago might be good for the police aspect of gameplay too.

oh ok well good luck on it, I really like it, also I just sent you a private message, you can just disregard it

Hey, is this mod dead, I really hope it isn't as the fire department preview, its unlike any other mod I've seen and it definitely deserves to be one of the more popular mods out there!

Hi, I'm making a private mod for myself and I have terrible scripting skills, I was going to use a to station script from the mayberry mod, could someone please tell me how to use the vcmd to fire station script in the editor? Thanks

Not really. I'm not too familiar with airport emergency services. My local airport (an international airport) is policed by the county sheriff and fire services are provided by the county fire department (which is a division of the sheriff's office). Not too sure about paramedics and technical services, that is going to be a bit hard as I don't know much about how they work in airports. But I have a good idea about callouts:

1. Terrorist attack.

2. Car theft in parking lot.

3. Emergency plane landing.

4. Pedestrian struck by vehicle.

5. Drugs smuggling.

6. Person broke security barrier.

7. Enviromentalists' protest over planes' impact on enviroment.

8. Luggage theft.

9. Person carrying contraband past TSA checkpoint.

10. Wanted felon attempting to escape by airplane.

And that's just ten. Some of these hinge on the possibility of creating new callouts, however.

I see, well anyways keep it in mind for if you get bored after the Dutch and American mod are done, also once you are comfortable with emergency 5 modding you might want to make a few tutorials on it. Good luck! 

Hi, I think its great someone is finally making a good plan for the future of EM5 modding, Im eagerly (but still patiently) waiting for the American mod, BTW would you consider making an American airport mod?
