I'm downloading it to test it now. Maybe I'll get around to try Latvia-mod sometime to, but can someone tell me, if there are any advanced functions in it? For example, how does the alarming of unit work? Is it like in Florian Hamburg-mod, or like LA-mod?

Hey guys, I'm too slow checking back to this thread. Hehe... Thanks for all the tips, I'll check out the new Aarhus-mod. I've already tried the Florian Hamburg mod a few months ago, when was this 1.2.2-version released? About mods that aren't released, like the Atlanta mod; I understand you want to make your modifications known, but I have asked specifically for mods that are released and of a certain quality. Be so kind as to refrain from posting mods that haven't been released, or that only contain some new skins and no new functions or even scripts. Thanks again!

Yes, we are aware. Please, keep on topic. And don't advertise for mods that aren't released yet, or mods that just consist of a couple of new skins. I'm not interested in those, I'm interested in really functional mods, like Winterberg and LAmod.

Well I'll be damned, you guys sure post a lot in a few days! I haven't had time to check in on this topic for a while, but I can see there are some new suggestions here. I'll try them out, thanks! About getting a jo, and discussions about unreleased mods.... I don't really care for that. Keep on topic. I'm a student at university college, so I don't really need more things to fill my spare time. I'm just looking for new mods, that's all. Currently waiting for NYmod, Wuppertal, Winterberg v7, LAmod v1.9, and RTS-mod. So quite a list...

Well that's great. Now, let's not get too carried away with swine flu. Keep the suggestions on mods I can play coming!

I see what you mean, not that much talk about swineflu here in Norway at the moment though. Well, 3d-modelling is one of the courses I'm taking at school this semester, if I get the hang of it I might give modelling a few Norwegian units a go. But no promises, I'll just see what happens I guess. Too bad about the mod though, I've always wanted a good Norway-mod for EM4.

Doesn't really help me with my question Newfoundking, but it's ok I guess. I don't have time to be sick due to school, but I'm hoping for some spare time to play all the new mod-updates that lay on the horizon! I guess the Norway-mod isn't moving too much these days either? I guess we will.

Having the same problem, but I don't think they have released anything new. I've run the updater twice today and there's no new files... From the errors we are getting it looks like they are having trouble with their webserver or database.

Yea, I'm currently waiting for NY-mod, Winterberg v7 and LA-mod v1.9. So there's alot going on in the future, but I'm looking for something new and challenging to get my hands on until then. Hehe...

Yea, I tested it now... Not really a new mod, just a reskin of EM4 with a few scripts, like the AutoSiren etc. I'm afraid that the only two mods I can really call complete, 100% mods are LA-mod and Winterberg... That's a bit sad. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy seeing new units, the DDR-mod had some really interesting new models and concepts. But the lot of mods I have played are full of bugs, or they don't really add anything to the game. They're just skins... Keep on giving me suggestions though!

Aha, I'll check them out. Are they larger mods, like LAmod and Winterberg? Or something along the lines of DDR-mod? EDIT: I've allready played the Florian Hamburg-mod. Sorry, forgot to mention that. Will test Netherlands-mod now!

So, I've played a few mods now. I've played Los Angeles Mod a lot, same goes for Winterberg Mod. I've tested Dänemark Mod, Czech Republic Mod, and the DDR-Mod Demo. All fun and games, some are better than others, but there are aspects to enjoy with all of them. Now I ask of you: what do you recommend I try next? I want something on the scale of LAmod or Winterberg, with extensive commands etc, not just a re-skinned EM4. All suggestions are welcome. Thanks on beforehand! The list of mods I have tested up to now is; LA-mod Winterberg Dänemark Czech Republic DDR (the 8 level demo) Florian Hamburg (version 1.2.2 too) Netherland Helmond RTS, Rescue Training Simulator

Hehe, ok, let's stop with the "NG calls 911" now. It's amusing, but it's not what I wanna discuss in this thread. So, let's continue along the lines of the original thread people!

Yea, I guess I could do that. The helicopter would need some work too, to make it possible to follow suspects and vehicles etc... Maybe for another time.

Ah, the radioactive cloud, good point. That's a good example of usage! I'm gonna try out some situations where they can be used from now, maybe I can incorporate them into my usual unit rotation. Too bad they can't patrol, or else I could have simulated a state of emergency, where the NG had taken over most of the police day-to-day duties. They can, technically, perform the same tasks as the police in LAmod.

Allright, I've got a new question for the gamers out there! What do you use the National Guard for, in freeplay? I've never used them, ever. There never seems to be a situation big enough to require me to utilize them. The only thing I can think of is crowd control, or riot situations. But that's stuff I use my police units for... So how about it?

I think we have established what a flashlight is.

I think my favourite vehicle in the mod would have to be the unmarked patrol car. It's really sleek and stealthy. I also like the police motorcycle. In real life I don't really know, but I tend to like the german firetrucks.

Yes, this is a good example of a mission where a flashlight might be useful. But really useful, or just a little? I guess it's up to one self to decide. Bottom line; I wouldn't mind having a flashlight-function in the game, but I don't feel like it's something that needs to be developed right now. Who knows what the future might bring, though.

Just my two cents about escorting ambulances with police units: Sure, it looks cool, and it's probably done in a lot of real life situations. But it's also going to deplete the police presence in an area, since the police unit has to follow the ambulance to the hospital, and then either return to patrol or stand by there. It doesn't really add anything but visuals to the game.

I see everything. Thanks for clearing up the matter about the flashlight-issue, by the way!

Offtopic; I really hope you mean a flashlight, not a fleshlight... On topic: I see what you mean. This feature would not be very realistic or useful, so I can see why this isn't included in EM4.

Yes, please post screenshots if you have one! If there is a flashligh in EM3, it should be able to transfer it to EM4.

If that is the case I have never seen it.

Neither do I, and I don't expect anyone to. I don't expect Hoppah or anyone else to make this for LAmod, I'm just stating my opinion about the idea. If I could, I might give this a shot. But I can't.
