Project Nostalgia Submod [RELEASED - Bugfixes Uploaded Regularly]

Recommended Posts

Take as much time as you need to rest, you definitely deserve it. 

Loving the update, especially the new callouts and scripts. The new peds for the coroners, LACoFD, and the private ambulance companies are very well done. This has easily become one of my all time favorite mods for EM4 .

I will look into these issues, thank you.

I believe I made a mistake in the uploading of the maps, which is why multiplayer crashes. For the dispatcher, I am not quite sure what's causing it because it works fine on my end. Might be one of those "WinXP compatibility" things that Em4 likes doing.

You're right, I think that's why, I'm an AMD platform user and the game only runs more fluidly with WinXP compatibility enabled, about multiplayer, thanks for the feedback I hope you can fix it, I'm looking forward to playing with friends. ^-^

  I might be adding just one Firecoach tiller because LAFD ever acquired 2 in their entire history.

I know the update is already been released but I was just wondering if this is something that might still be added in the future, or if it's unlikely to be added at all.

I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask since it's been awhile.

I don't have any glitches except the rotators are appearing behind the lightbar, centered on the middle of the vehicle.

Itch, incredible work. I've probably spent half of the time playing the mod just selecting all of the variants of each vehicle type. The new mission types are very welcome too, and it's the little things like being able to take walking wounded to the hospital that help make this mod such a game-changer.

I found a bug with the battalion chief where on the way back to the station it'll go out front and try to go through the engine 1 bay. On one instance it actually parked in the door.

(Apologies for the compressed image)

I'll play with paths to make this happen less frequently.

I may be wrong about what I said. There could be a script causing issues with MP but I won't know until someone tells me. If you don't mind, have a run with it again after I release the bugfixes and more vehicles. I would like to hear the specifics of when, how and what crashes the game down to the actions done by each player.

Also I am on AMD myself, though with an NVIDIA GPU and I can say that it is really hardware dependent. I've tried Em4 on Intel systems that ran poorly and I have no clue what specific thing makes the game choose to not run well.

It's been over a year and I still have not found pictures of the rear of that tiller, or the sides I need to model it. I am hoping those pictures surface someday, but I am at the mercy of the private collection owners who release pictures at a snail's pace.

Another thing I noticed is that the lights seem a little bit disaligned to the rear when vehicles are in motion.

Expand  

There is no cure for this, it's just how Em4 works. Montana mod will have the same thing with the rotator lightbar equipped units in that mod. Sadly it's this or nothing.

I cannot replicate the issue.

Even if it works fine for me, I will still try to find the cause for your crashes. I will alter some code and see if it changes anything for others.

I'm guessing the shots have to be nearly a direct shot at the sides and the rear, I do have a side shot and 2 rear shots but those are still at a slight angle. You might already have these 3 shots but I'll post them just incase.

I also found and posted a video awhile back between December that might help aswell, haven't had much luck with shots of the right side.

I'll keep an eye out for anything else but unfortunately that's all I have currently.

If you can please send me to the site where you got this last pic, I'd really appreciate it.

I think I'll get to doing this when I am able. Seems that there is (almost) enough for me to get this started.

I had been told once that it was because of EME4 not being able to use all the GPU/CPU cores since at the time it was a 2-core thing and everything else, I don't know if it's correct.

About the feedback when the update comes out, you can count on me, I'll report you on anything to improve the mod experience. looking forward to the update ^-^

About dispatch, it may be my own game's bug, but it's worth exploring this flaw without concrete explanation

There's also this one aswell of the other truck.

I might've posted about this site in the past, There's alot of good shots of other apparatus on this site aswell from LA and other agencies.
