That's a shame. Thanks for the reply.

Hello everyone. Lately I've been working on a fire station model, and it's just about done. The windows for the model are transparent - yet I've got quite a bit of an issue: The windows are fully transparent to the model itself (I worked this around by deleting the material and importing the model by new) - yet you won't be able to see persons, furniture - or even the floor - through the windows ingame. In some angles. Picture 1 and 2 shows from the inside and out - Picture 3 and 4 shows from the outside and in. As you can see, the fireman is visible in some angles, but not in others. The fireman resembles objects in general. It's an issue, as the floor itself will be gone, and that ruins the entire purpose. I hope one of you will be able to help me. I'll be sure to update this post of the thread with the solution, if we'll come to one. That way others with the same problem hopefully wont have to search long.* * There is no solution. However you're left with (in my perspective) two alternatives: - Removing the windows entirely - Make the window texture non-transparent (as vehicle windows) Kind regards Lasse

I've changed the resolution numerous times through the .cfg file already - all with a proper effect. Except for when picking 1920x1080. This is what confuses me. 1600x900 (16:9) works, but 1920x1080 (also 16:9) doesn't, although the monitor is full HD. I don't see how that entirely makes sense. And, well - it did. edwarddl's suggestion was the winner, and everything now works as it should. Thank you very, very much! No trouble with the graphics, and the resolution is full HD now. Really appreciate it guys - time to get back modding, now on the move :-) Thanks a bunch!

That worked quite well. The graphics are fixed and seems fine. The only thing left would be the resolution then. Thanks a lot for the help. This'll at least make it possible to mod a bit properly :-)

I tried using various different resolutions, with 1600x900 being the closest-to-HD I could run. Although I've gotten used to using 1920x1080 on my stationary PC, so if I could get that resolution, that would be far the best. If it isn't possible, however, that's fine. As long as I get the second issue resolved I'll be fine. :-) The graphics at the lowest seem to work fine, yet I find it very confusing why a PC with my specs is unable to run Em4 at high graphics. I might be misinformed, but isn't that a little strange? Thanks for the quick response, by the way!

Hi guys. I just bought a new laptop so that I could keep modding while away, got it up and running, and found out Em4 runs horribly. The issues are that I can't run Em4 in 1920x1080 resolution. The highest I can get is 1600x900, even though my laptop screen is full HD. I can still enter the game with 1920x1080, but it seems as the screen misses 25% on the top and on the right side, as seen on this picture: The second issue I have is major graphic faults in the editor. I have no idea what causes this, or what could fix it.

I'm not sure whether or not this will cover your requests for KME/Pierce, but this website has quite a lot of blueprints. Good ones too: http://the-blueprints.com/

Thanks for the feedback, guys. I'll have a look into it myself. Fortunately modelling isn't the problem, UV mapping is The station is a quite important asset in the mod, as roleplaying with the firefighters in the station with various interactions will probably be the #1 thing to do when not on a call. That's why I find it such a vital piece of my mod, and why I feel this part, more than any other, should be like the real life counterpart. Appreciate the suggestion though, 'cause about most things, I feel exactly that way aswell. The only thing worse than work is double work!

Hi folks. I think it's about time I reach out to the many modellers around here. A very vital part of my mod is as of right now missing. I need a fire station. And a fairly detailed one at that. I've got quite a lot of scripts set up for the station already, some that I personally find really impressive, and that will probably be very well enjoyed. However, these scripts are utterly useless, as the dummy station I have doesn't get the feeling of my city's mod right. My mod has been underway for years, but with the fire station, I would in a very short amount of time be ready to actually release it. So therefore the help request. The station is Denmark's largest fire station. Although it's large, it's very square-ish and 1970's like, which means there are no (very) tricky shapes on it. By detailed model, I mean that some of the building should be modelled with interior. About 40% of the ground floor would need an interior, so that hopefully wont be much of an issue. Work DescriptionFAIRLY DETAILED MODEL of the Odense Fire Brigade main station.OPEN-HOUSE MODEL: An all exterior model, and a section that has a removable roof (scripting not required, I'll handle that myself)UV-MAP of the model (I don't expect you to make the texture. I can handle that myself as well)Help- Blueprints- Several images- Several videos- Anything the modeller need will be taken care of (more images, videos, blueprints, descriptions, whatever)Here is a couple of images of the station: Front View Back View Right View Right-Back View Hope you can help - I will be forever in your debt! Kind regards Lasse

Audacity is my personal preference.

Exactly. I had a friend of mine create the model from scratch for my mod. Although there was some irregularities with the headlights, and as he's currently away (from what I know of), i'm looking for a bit of help with them. :-) And yep, cops, they're more or less identical on both sides, meaning they'll need to be redone, both of them.

Hi guys. I was wondering if any of you modellers would be interested in helping me out. I've got a headlight on a Volvo XC60 model that needs to be remade, as it - as you can see on the images below - is quite messed up. If you want to help me out, let me know, and I'll send you the model along with the skin in a private message. It's a fairly exclusive model, so I'd prefer not to throw it around in public. Thanks in advance, and kind regards. ShadyLasse

An alternative for the entire road name thing could be using the logic for (for instance) the open houses. Model the roadname on a flat, and give it the same properties as the skidmarks. Then locate them on the map how you want, and script them onto a switch that will show/hide them. That way you'll be able to manually decide whether or not you want to see the names of the roads in their physical form, thus giving you both navigation options and realism. Be sure to think about it, though! They take up far more work and space than a simple texture edit does.

If not rafaelmfernandez' suggestion works - have a look at the LAFlashingLights script. That's where I found it.

If you have ERS Berlin - which it sounds an awful lot like you do - open the launcher for it and click "Press standard game" or whatever the option is called. Something along those lines. Once you have launched the game once through the ERS program, everything returns to normal when you open it the regular way aswell. You'll need to "reset" it by launching Em4 through the ERS launcher every time after playing ERS, or else it'll do exactly as you described.

We're going nuts with version 1.1, creating a lot of new cool stuff for the mod. One thing we'll focus a lot on is having first aid watches at events throughout the city of skibhus and the region around it. You'll be controlling Peter who will be in charge of a first aid tent at the various events we're planning. Our creativity is getting a free run here, so Benjamin and I are having a great time doing the 1.1 features. Have a look:

Thank you very much! I'll play around with it for a bit and see if I'll gather any results worth showing. P.S. I appreciate all the replies!

I thought about that, although I'm more interested in having an actual video roll as seen by Goya here: It's probably not worth the technical struggle just to have a TV playing, but it would be kind of cool to have anyway. It's the little things that does the tricks.

I thought about the option, although I concluded that technqiue probably wouldn't be very suitable for a running TV in a firestation. I'd assume the TV wouldn't have very much of a fine transition between the images so that it would actually look like a TV-channel playing. I believe the only viable chance of having such a thing would be to link a video to the model. I just have no idea how to do that. If anyone would enlighten me on that part, I'd be as grateful as the days are long.

Hello everyone. I'm a little curious if anyone would know how to get an animated image put onto a model in Emergency 4? The game obviously doesn't recognize the .gif format, so would anyone by any chance know an alternative? Kind regards Lasse

They sure are. The police released a press statement about the new colors, in where they say that "the inspiration for the design is gathered from Norwegain, Swedish and English police - in accordance to the european guidelines for emergency vehicles.". I agree it's a bit of a rip off (a nice one though!)

Thanks for the replies. Yep! The national police decided that from now on, every new police vehicle should come in the new livery with the blue and neon-yellow boxes. There's going to be a large variety of the looks as they're waiting for the (very new also) police vehicles to be outphased before they buy ones that they'll repaint. For now the new livery isn't very common. It's on 3 out of 14 operative patrol cars in the local PD here, but the number will rise, and I honestly don't mind, as I personally like the look.

A medical call about heart issues in the midtown of Odense led to an ambulance and an emergency doctor responding. The woman survived and recovered fully afterwards. Meanwhile, in a different part of the city, a structure fire was discovered by a couple taking a stroll down their residental street. The fire department immediately responded, along with police and EMS. One person was rescued from the building, as he had barricaded himself in the first floor bathroom. Firemen were able to talk him out onto a roof later, where a ladder came in useful to help him down. The day after, a vehicle incident involving two civilian vehicles, occured on the E20 highway. With people entrapped, aswell as thrown out of the vehicles, a heavy response involving fire and rescue was dispatched. The police assisted, blocking the highway entrance nearby, along with the left opposite lane for more ambulances to arrive. Only light injuries were present at the crash, although it had been a high energy collision.
