[EM4] Los Angeles Mod bugs, issues and problems

Guest PoliceMad

Thanks for the Mod its good!

I also noticed that the fire fighters dont automatically go back into the fire engine when you click detach hose. I noticed you mentioned that they go automatically into the engine when you do this?

Is there a way to fix this as its really annoying i have to click on every firefighter and make him go into the engine 1 by 1.

Also is there a way to make the sirens go on without me having to automatically clicking turn on sirens. I have automatic sirens on but still i have to put them on manually.

Also i have the icon of the new mod on my desktop but i still have to manually load the mod when i open it

Im on Vista 32bit

:welcome: to the forums.

The firefighters do get back into their vehicles, apart from the Brush truck. You don't press detach hose, you use the rapid deployment command for them to get out and back in.

There is no way make the sirens go on without you clicking them.

And the Forest fire truck

EDIT: Sirens should come on after commanding a unit to move when using auto-siren

OK

There are 2 highway patrols aren't there? :gruebel:

And there is a lifeguard in a sub-mod - but this might be EM3 - not sure.

There are highway patrol (CHP, even though they look like the other LAPD/LASD units, which is one problem with California) and "life guards" (Coast Guard Jayhawk).

There is a CHP (Highway Patrol) Ford Crown Victoria and a CHP Dodge Charger in the game. There is a lifeguard submod for EM4. Look in the submods section.

If you look through the topic there have been a lot of traffic issues

Do you have patch 2?

Since this is the 'bug' forum, I thought I should add this...

Since Win7 is coming out tomorrow, I will let everyone know I've been running the full version win7 X64 (LEGALLY provided through my university) for a couple months now and I'm glad to say I've had minimal problems with 911: FR or the LA mod (and what little I had was solved by updating the vid card drivers). I will note that you'll have to enable it for admin like vista and enable it to run in Win2000 mode

OFF TOP - Win7 is pretty good. I'd recommend it over vista any day.

back to topic....

Hope this eases anyones worries about compatibility!

The only problem I had running it on Win7 was I had to manually edit the screen resolution in the config file. Didnt have to make it compatible with Win2K or anything.

Another thing.. i think there should be life guards for the game and highway patrol :D

Theres a lifeguard sub mod but it never made it out of beta sadly.

Highway Patrol has both a CV and Charger already in the game. :s

Can you show us where you get the traffic jam?

yes, i really don´t think that it is necessary to upload a screenshot, in the la bridge.

i´ve also noticed that pedestrians some times get in the middle of the street blocking the traffic

I send out the LASD Van to put up these people that just stop in the road. reduce the traffic on the map to ease up on the jam on the bridge. I reduced the traffic by about 1/4 and haven't had any issues. Also DO NOT redirect the traffic, I just park a cruiser and have the officers stand in the road blocking traffic. (no redirect or or stoppping)

I defiantly have the traffic problem on the bridge.

Off topic: right when I was typing this, DirecTV called, and it sounded just like my dad, so, I asked if it was my dad messing around. The guy didn't do anything except keep trying to sell me the sports package XDXDXD ok, back to topic.

So just stop re-directing until it gets fixed.

Traffic on the L.A bridge stops when you re-direct traffic, causing a huge problem that can lead to 1/2 of the map being cut off, meaning, if you have an emergency, that persons dead. Or gets away. Or the fire gets extremely out of control.

I have not experienced traffic stopping on the bridge,and causing a traffic jam,but i did notice that the bridge seems to be slightly higher than the road it connects too,not sure if this is causing a problem,im not at home so cant post screen to show what i meen,also,since not redirecting traffic i have had no traffic jams at all,all you get is a lot of traffic queuing which takes a while to clear,but it does eventually,which is what usually happens when there has been an accident anywhere,traffic chaos.

This is some thing I been wondering for ages. That is one of my game play issues...

Why the "Jaws of Life" not on any other LAFD units? You always have to call the CoFD Equipment truck.

I find it odd that the LAFD not having some kind of equipment truck or carry the jaws on one of the engines?

Other than that... The "Oil Rig Fire" mission is too hard to get a 100% with Ver. 1.9

I think back in Ver. 1.5 it was easier some how... One problem is getting to tech guy on the Rid. Because no tech copter.

Their has to be some kind of engineer that can be deploy by copter. Not sure LAFD has a engineer that trained as a Fireman too.

But I know Military such as the Coast Guard and Army. Would have a trained engineer to handle things like Dams and Oil Rigs.

Realism. Apparently in LA the engines don't carry them.

Here in Southern California engines only carry cutters and spreaders (Jaws of life) if they don't have a truck in there district. LAFD will usually respond a Ladder truck or a USAR team for any type of TC (traffic collision) because they have all the tools needed for an extrication. They can always be canceled if not needed. Although the game only uses the Jaws, in real life we use tools such as cribbing and airbags to lift cars if needed. These tools are usually kept on these units. This leaves room on the engines so that there compartments aren't cluttered. My department only has engines and one heavy rescue so we keep the Jaws on each engiene so that we aren't waiting for our one rescue to show up. If it is a more advanced rescue, we can start until the rescue shows up with additional tools.

So this is done in the game to make it realistic

Other than that... The "Oil Rig Fire" mission is too hard to get a 100% with Ver. 1.9

I'm almost positive that the coast guard chopper has a tech in it. you just have to let him out. the guy in it can act as a tech
