Guest deadnoob Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 HELP!Ok so I dled the LA mod, hats off to hoppah, its AMAZING. But as I come to the mission where the freighter crashes into the bridge, I can't seem to airlift the patients out of the danger area.My icons for lifting are blanked out. Wont let me use them... I'm so confused. All i'm able to do is drop a diver into the water!I know it's probably some stupid noob move i'm making, but i just cant figure it out for the life of me... please help!What am I doing wrong? How airlift them out?All help is greatly appreciated! Thank You!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forensics Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 I can't remember that mission very well, are you talking about lifting them out of the water or lifting them off land? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest deadnoob Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 my that was quick... loleither or....there are both people in the water i would like to save, as well as injured on land on the other side of the bridge that is out.. i don't see why i cant just pick up the ones on land.

Forensics Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 With the helicopter you can't pick anyone out of the water, however you can pick people up from land (Injured or not) but you must have an engineer in the helicopter.The only way to get people out of the water is using a motorboat or getting divers to take them to land.

Guest deadnoob Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 ahh... that would make sense, but the only unit it allows me to add is the USCG Diver...? How do i add an engineer? from the typical dispatch menu? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forensics Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 The engineer is default personal but you also have the option to add him in the dispatch menu.I have just gone in and played that mission, you also won't be able to pick up people who have rubble on top of them, there are 2 men on the boat and to remove them you need to remove the rubble off them first then you should be able to take them up in the helicopter.

Guest deadnoob Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 right, i've done that, but it has to be done with the boat and firemen..when i try to use the helicopter, there is no USCG Rescue Worker in it, just one LAFD Diver for default with the possiblity of adding two more..and i searched for an USCG Rescue Worker elsewhere, like maybe a vehicle (figured i could land the chopper and load him in) but i can't find it.am i missing units or what?...and which copter are you using? the air ambulance or the USCG Jayhawk? No matter, i cant load an USCG Rescue Worker into either..is the Rescue Worker the same as the LAFD Diver? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forensics Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 I'm sorry, I mean 'USCG Rescue Worker' not engineer, I get them confused. There are 2 different people you can put in the USCG jayhawk:The diver:Rescue Worker:These are both in the USCG jayhawk:Are you sure they are not in yours?

Guest deadnoob Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 absolutely positive.i can load the diver, but not the rescue worker... he's just not there.went into the install directory /wizardworks/911-first-responders/mods/la mod 2.0/prototype/personsas well as /la mod 2.0/models/personscouldn't find anything mentioning "USCG" or the like at all...what version are you running? is it possible 2.0 is flawed? should i downgrade? this is odd....oh and i did manage to find the engineer van, but no rescue worker.EDIT: Also noticed the bulldozer isnt available on this mission, dont know if it is on others... should it be here?

Forensics Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Go 'LA mod folder -> Units -> persons -> Tec -> and you should see a folder called '020uscgrescue'You can only get the rescue worker in the jayhawk.Some units aren't available on all missions, I can't remember if it should be or not.EDIT: The bulldozer is available in these missions: '17 12 14 7 19 10 6 18 16 11 20 24 31'.

Guest deadnoob Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 yes, i found that folder, with a bunch of files inside, however, i still don't see him in-game...what do you mean you can only get the rescue worker in there? how is that so when the LAFD Diver is loaded automatically?i've done a complete re-install of the LA Mod 2.0 and still nothing...-so confused-Thanks for your time with me on this, i do appreciate it very much..

Forensics Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Your welcome. I'm really rather confused too.Do you see him in freeplay or other missions?Have you edited any of your files?So you have v2.0 of the mod, do you use any submods?

Guest deadnoob Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 i did install the lightpack mod (one of the ones off the approved list from hoppah)NOT tonys lightpack, but the other.HOWEVER, that was deleted once i did a re-install of LAmod, and still nothing. otherwise, no editing was done. and yes, running 2.0.to be honest i havent tried other missions, been kinda working my way up the ladder..i shall try freeplay and see what happens but for ome reason i doubt ill see the guy.:'( this makes me sad.... i really want to play!!Also, I'm running version 1.0 of 911-FirstResponders. Do I need to update? Could that be the problem?I'm worried that if I do, it won't be compatible with LaMod 2.0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest deadnoob Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Okay, so I loaded freeplay and the jayhawk is loaded with the rescueworker and diver. This is the only time I've seen himI started the oil rig mission and now he is availabe with the Diver as well. I still don't have him in the motorway collapse mission though. Is it just too early to use him? Didn't you say you were able to?Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Bells Gaming Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 The only thing I personally can see, when comparing the two unit files, is as follows:Jayhawk:<missions value="8 5 17 12 13 14 7 19 10 6 18 16 11 20 24 32">USCG Rescue Worker:<missions value="8 5 17 12 13 14 7 19 10 6 18 16 11 20 23 24 25 32">USCG Dauphin from AUS:<missions value="8 5 17 12 13 14 7 19 10 6 18 16 11 20 23 24 25 32">And, as you can see, the Rescue worker is available for more than the Jayhawk is, so, I can't see why this is.

Whered you get that? Is it pulled from the config file?Would it be possible to manually edit the file myself to include him, or other units, in missions that I specify..?And again, thanks for all your help guys!

2Bells Gaming Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 this is found, for me, at least, in:C:\Program Files\WizardWorks\911 - First Responders\Mods\Los Angeles Mod v2.0\Units\Vehicles\TECYours may differ a bit, depending on which game you have.This CAN be edited What is it you're trying to accomplish? just the origional problem?

Ami89E1234 Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Were you trying to airlift the people off of the bridge on the other side (the uninjured ones)? If so, it's not possible to do so as far as I know (you're not supposed to/can't really in the normal game so it still acts like it).

It can?? Yes I would like to correct the orginal problem, would also just like to know in general for future reference. In case I decide there should be a unit in a mission that not included later on. As was my original problem.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ami89E1234 Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 If a unit's not in a mission, then obviously it's not needed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Bells Gaming Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Your best bet, in my opinion, would be to add the USCG Jayhawk (and Dauphin, if you've got it) to every mission. Do this by copying the mission numbers from a vehicle thats in EVERY mission (LAPD Patrol Car, ALS or BLS Ambulance, ALS or BLS Engine) into the mission numbers of the Jayhawk (and Dauphin) as well as the USCG Rescue Worker. Copy the following line into the unit.xml of units\vehicles\TEC\120rescuehelicopter, units\vehicles\TEC\125dolphin, and units\personnel\TEC\020uscgrescue:<missions value="1 2 3 4 13 15 9 8 5 17 12 14 7 19 10 6 18 16 11 20 24 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35">make sure its aligned properly (hit tab in front of the " < ") with the rest of the script.To edit the unit.xml(s), simply right click on the unit.xml icon, and left click EDIT from the menu. That will open the .xml file with wordpad for your editing pleasure. Take a look around that, its pretty self-explanitory. hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
