Patrick9894 Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 yea i know since they have the high rise packs that it will be in the mod. I just have no idea how it will be possible to view and manage everything. But im sure they have a system and it will be amazing:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njboy13 Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 [off topic removed by staff]About the high rises, I'll be interested in seeing how they turn out too. You can see in the first post they have pictures of high-rises, and I'm guessing you will only be able to see certain floors, (Similar to how it's done in Sims 3 Late Night if you are familiar with that game. But we'll find out soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we'll find out soon enough.With all due respect, I think the high-rise packs will only replace the "usual" hoselines. If you order a firefighter to get a hoseline, it will just look like a high-rise pack in every situation. Like they have the screenshot for the "odor of gas", the FFs have high-rise packs, which I think are only normal hoselines, if you want to get attached to a hydrant or engine.Putting out high rise fires, I think it will be similar to previous EM4 scenarios, you will be able to enter one level, where you can operate. It will be interesting how FFs will reach a certain floor, because ladders tend not to reach high rise fires , will see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the high-rise packs is replacing the hose from the original games. The high-rise packs will be for hooking in to sprinklers and standpipes at high rise fires, and the lines on the back of the engine will be the attack and supply lines, it will be completely different from the original game.

great guy Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 i wonnder if when you tell a ff in the mod to get a certian hoseline, i wonder if they will be able to grab the hoselines off the hose bed on the back of the engine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Station27 Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 I think it was said that there are 3 different hoselines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyPI Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 Advanced as this mod is I'd hope they didnt put in the time to have you actually have to goto a specific "bay" on the engine to retrieve the proper line diameter, in the end it is still a mod for EM4 not a simulator game that was built... Far as I know they did include different lines but I'd hope they didnt waste the time putting in retrieval for the lines from a specific bay on the engine, 1 you'd never really see it without a camhack and 2. the time put into doing that is better served elsewhere in my opinion.

MoonCressler Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 yeah so far was have alot of theories but no real conclusions and we won't know till it comes out haha which I cant wait for I'm glad i only found out about this mod a couple months ago because if I would of found out about it when they started it I'd a gone crazy by now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I still think that visually the line on the firefighter's shoulder will replace normal EM4 hoselines. But like with everything else, I guess, we will need to wait till we can play with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick9894 Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 oh and sorry for the quick double post but does anyone know if they are including the new world trade center complex? of if it will just be a huge construction area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think they want this mod to be very realistic so it's probably going to be a park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JediHutch61 Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 If they're doing E7, L1, B1's house, I don't think that the WTC complex/memorial park will be included, since it is not in their frist due area. That is E10 L10's first due area, since it is right across the street from their station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyPI Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Use common sense guys, you realize how big the WTC complex was? it'd eat up the majority of the map regardless to what they might theoretically make it (personally I would make a parking garage but that's me), not unlike doing the empire state building or any other major skyscraper, hell even the white house is the map, em4 maps are not that big..
