G'day All I am working on BuffCity mod, at the moment I am adding the LA mod units in, and having some trouble. I have read through the tutorials here and a hard to find e4tut1b.pdf help on adding vehicles. the quick rundown of e4tut1b.pdf: Use the models and textures from the mod you want to use, add them to your own, then make your own prototypes in your mod. after you spend alot of time building the models back up in the editor, then you change or fix up the freeplaybase.xml (all), portraits.xml, and metastrings.xml, infotexts.xml. to get the units in the game. Adding the models from LA to Buff, is not much of a problem, I get the models from the LA mod and put them in to Buff mod, then I make the prototypes using the editor, and making sure I use the same names as the LA mod to avoid scripting problems. I can get the LA units to show up in BuffCity Mod, all works fine. But the people wont show up, the outline is there but the textures are not, then the games crashes. Went through the error log, but did not find the problem. My plan is to have BuffCity Mod as a Submod for LA.

G'day all I have been working on this map for multiplayer and freeplay, BuffCity. (Fictional) Has an Airport, Secret Base Harbor Uptown, and Downtown areas Missions so far: Car Accidents, Demonstrations/mobs/punch up's, Bomb's, Gas Explosions, Contamination, Car Thief's, Fires, Hostages and more. At the moment it has only Emergency 4 Standard objects and vehicles. I would like to add different vehicles (Australian) but still growing my 3d building skills and scripting skills from the start does take time. I am working more on building up this map first, But I would like to get some help if there are people that would like to build this mod up.

Thanks for the reply, i'll get the log file over to you in a PM soon, just working on some textures and 3d models at the moment, gave up on the map for a little, having a rethink on the set up, but once I come back to it i'll get you the info. Thanks again Itchboy

G'day all Its been a while, but fighting cancer is a little full on. I asked Hoppah a few years ago to make a new map for EM4, LAmod V1. I know it was a while ago. I am now taking the time to learn how to mod EM4, LAmod 2.1. As E2012 sucks without the extra features Hoppah and Co. brought to the LAmod, made EM4 a much better game. To the point: I am having trouble getting the spawning to work at the fire stations, keeps coming up with a script error about " gate1 on line 198 m.SetRotation(gate1); " It is the line on the LAfire station start script, for the life of me I cant figure it out. I named the objects fs_gate01a, fs_gate01b, ECT.... for all gates and objects related to the stations. Even the spawn_firedept spawn_firedeptr, ECT... on the edge of the map ** Sort of worked that problem, now having trouble with VOSET_ROAD line in the fire station script, after having no sleep i'll leave it for later** Then names the virtual objects the same as the original map even found the spawn check hidden under the station, So I thought I did a copy of all objects using the same names and objects of the maps hoppah and Co. made. (I started a new map, and re-entered all objects required for both fire stations, police and hospital, virtual objects, ect) I am just wanting to get to a point where the stations work 100% (all vehicles spawn, and I can call in extras to the map), then i'll add the incidents for the map. I do have an understanding of scripting(JAVA, C++, C#) so I can read the code, but after having Chemo Brain, its a little hard for the neurons to fire the right way to figure out this problem. My plan is to just make a map for home, I would let you all here to use it, as long as I dont breach copyright, or without permission from Hoppah, as I did ask 3+years ago. Side note: It would be great if some people would get together and make a better manual for the map editor, as the current one is just crap, it does not go in to detail on anything, as for the forums well, having over 90pages with 20 subjects in each page is a lot to go through looking for answers, and the search is not much help finding every word with "spawn error" Just a thought to put in the forum, set by step guide to a change a mod or make your own. I have looked but hints and tips are all over the place, and not much on the editor, just adding textures or new models to the editor. The map is far for finished but i'll show you what I am working on. Any help, suggestions, and support would be great. Spacebuff

G'day all Been away for a few years and looked over the new mods, they look and work great, but hopping to find some MP players for EM4 (mods). Not after a clan, but would join one. But mostly some good random players. if their is still some left out there.

G'day PVFD, point taken, but at least I took the time to understand and learn, most noobs dont at all. jumping in to a room and saying go go go is not taking the time is it. Then shooting others units is what me not taking the time to teach them how to play the game. I find your view ignorant for just saying something so dumb. There are tutorials and playing the missions does teach how to play, then it should not be hard to put 2 and 2 together. when playing online most people do take the time and follow in with the others, but there is always one who has to do something dumb to F**K it up for the rest, then restarting a game takes up most of your playing time. It sounds like taking responsibility for one's own actions in your world just dont happen.

G'day all Not sure about everyone else but I am sick of noob players, people jumping in a room saying "go go go" without even setting out who is what, or jumping in saying I am this or that. Then if the dont get what they want they start fighting with the others in the room. So you give some people a fair chance and all they do is get a cop car and start shooting others units. I just dont get why people "kids, noobs and the F**KWITS" of the world have to come in to a game where most others want to have a good game. Myself I am retraining my mind to cope with different tasks quick, having chemo and raido therepy's for cancer I suffer from "chemo brain", as I will be going back to work soon I find this game "sim" helps alot. Anyway some of the big noobs know not to join my room as I kick them out, but I do give most a fair go and only one chance. I find the lack of respect from people a little sad, do people think just because your on a computer you dont have to show any respect to anyone else, are people that wrapped up in there little computer world they cant show respect to the other person(s) on the other end. So to the noobs, get a life or better yet join in the game and be a part of the team, you may find it to be more fun. In my rooms I dont use cheats, med bus, choppers, boats, planes. The set up is Fire South, Fire North, MED/DECON and Police/Tech. Always on the hard setting, supporting each other. Anyway I hope others have a good game.

All we have is U.S. and Eroupe mods, Let see an Aussie Mod.

DOWNTOWN room will be running tonight

G'day Aussie Downtown LA, Hamachi server refreshed, have to PM for password, or if you know it rejoin. Also any other servers are welcome to post here and add to the list, just refresh/update yhen you can. we all get players who join have a game then dont see them anymore. LAPD is taken by myself. BUT EMS/Tec, FD-Rescue, FD-HAZMAT are open.

I turned off my firewall, ONLY when playing, fixed the problem for me. Firewall is set up to allow incoming and out going but still had that problem, so I turned it off, no problem now.
