  1. You've posted in the Em5 forum. By mistake most likely. Ill do the courtesy of moving it to the right place.
  2. I will have to caution you there, that statement is considered asking release dates.
  3. Dont bump a dead year-old topic, and especially if you dont have anything constructive to add except 'f*ck'.
  4. http://www.emergency-forum.de/filebase/index.php?entry/2521-bieberfelde-multiplayer-modifikation-1-1/ If you downloaded the program from a place other than this link, then you've been tricked by your 'friend' into downloading something malicious. This also means that the mod itself has no viruses in it despite your claim. If you DL'd it from there, then its a false postive on the part of your AV.
  5. Go to your 911FR or Em4 main folder, and find 'logfile.txt'. Upload it here for us to see. The only indication it can give you really is of any errors, and at what point the game crashed. Its unfortunately not going to directly say 'your mod is broken' or 'your computer is not powerful enough'. It will have a bunch of random codes and messages and it will require some reading to find the culprit of your problem.
  6. Okay, this is where I have to intervene because its these kinds of discussions that are usually the impetus for flame wars. Please respect the THVFD's decision and refrain from PM'ing him or spamming him. Any form of bullying will not be tolerated. On this site, we dont censor anyone for speaking their mind, or having this kind of opinion. As long as you are reasonable and not denigrating anyone, then we tolerate this type of discussion. Firstly, the community rift last year was not caused soley by content creators. The people who initiated the rift were the individuals who were angered because they were no longer allowed to rip other's content. Most if not all creators have been reasonable, and allowed usage to people who credited and asked permissions for usage. Unfortunately, even those basic steps were being disregarded by a sizeable number of parties. Second, not all authors arent bloodthirsty, certainly not the ones here. The comparison of 'an antenna' is rather oversimplifying the situation and paints a rather inaccurate picture of what was being used unfairly. It wasnt just antennas, but entire vehicles, scripts, whole packages even. Modders eventually got tired of seeing their hard-worked items being taken apart without their consent, and often without mentioning their names. Some modders took things further by choosing to take credit for other people's work, or in some examples, charged money for mods that used other people's content. Eventually, measures were put in place by the sites administration team to stop this behavior, which caused anger among many because they no longer were able to continue this attitude of content use without respect to the authors and creators. Numerous people reacted negatively to this action and formed their own forums elswhere using free forum software. Other groups splintered onto Facebook. They had the choice to stay, but decided not to. Nothing wrong with what they did, but attributing the division to the content creators is rather one sided, and single-dimensional in logic. On the part of creators, some individuals, myself included, made rather repugnant statements directed at other individuals we felt were against our interests. All of us have apologized, taken our punishments from this site's administrators, and moved on with our lives. The overall fault for what has happened lies with the extremists of both groups who incited negative actions upon each other. With regards to your usage of 'flipping shit', this kind of language is not conducive to civilized discussion. In future, please refrain from using this type of language when presenting a valid point.
  7. Shift F9 to go to map properties, then the 'Entry/Exit Spawns' section. There are two kinds of spawn points. The default Em4 ones in the map properties, and the script based ones that utilize VO's. Its best to have the Em4 ones setup, and then build the script based ones in the same place, or where desired afterwards.
  8. Be sure you do not go around pre-emtively PM'ing creators and asking for beta tests or links. While you have as much right to do promote your channel, such as TheNorthernAlex, be sure you are acting in accordance with this forum's rules. Good luck with the channel. Em4 is a very difficult user base to branch out from and may stifle your channel 4 years down the road.
  9. It would be in your best interest to be patient and wait for the creator(s) to release the mod, instead of begging on their topic.
  10. As this very topic mentions, the game is sold as '911 First Responders' in the UK. In the future, please refrain from bumping old topics, such as this one, where the last reply was from four years ago. Repeated offenses can earn you a warning point.
  11. 2015. The F series ambo in there is the period-correct older one. You may use that one, with credit to NNICO and bama1234.
  12. Your best bet is to use the previous gen F series from 2008-2011 rather than the 2012+ ones that predominantly appear in your WIP shots. This gen of F350 didnt come into existence until 2011, and has been replaced this year by a new gen. Having a 2015 Suburban as a battalion chief also doesnt make sense, given the timeline of 2009. Hopefully these are swapped out, or the mod timeline is moved to present day.
  13. Not your fault, we're all just doing our part to make this place better. In this context, that is what the report says, according the user who reported it. Individual users are also responsible for reporting content that they see as violating rules, or considered bullying for example so they get as much credit for improving the site as the moderators and admins. Just a general guidline for everyone reading this. Dont do what that guy did, or what I did, and went around trashing other people's mods. If you fill it with that kind of tone and include foulery in the statatement, it invalidates any point you have about the mod, even if it is legitimate criticism.
  14. UAC has to be turned off, otherwise the game wont run right. There's plenty of ways to do it, google is your best friend. As to your question about events, well, if all else fails, youll just have to live with having the events as fast as they are.
  15. Due to the site's image uploads glitch, I'd recommend using Imgur to link images here. Upload it there, link it to here, works fine for most who use it. That and a few other sites seem to be one of the only sites that dont bug out when their images are linked here. http://imgur.com/ Those vehicles unfortunately have a bit of a flaw. IIRC mod takes place in 2005, yet the Impala is from 2006, the ambulance 2008 and the beach cop rig 2012 respectively. None of the three would exist in reality, if the timeline is to be respected.
  16. Oh dear, I also forgot to ask. What are your system specs. It may be a 1000 pound computer but if some aspects on it are lacking, like GPU or RAM (as stated by mrmatt), then it could contribute to lack of performance in Em4. How does your PC handle other games, from say, 2015 and newer?
  17. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/turn-user-account-control-on-off#1TC=windows-7 Your Windows may still have UAC activated, thus preventing you from editing the file. UAC also has been known to crash Em4 or make it run unreliably.
  18. This is the elusive 'selecting units' lag that happens to people with weaker system specs, or people using very heavy mods. I have a 6 year old computer and it happens as bad as you have it on pretty much everything except unmodded Em4. For some years now, we've been trying to find the root of the problem, but the bug just seems to target either mods or computers. Our theory is that it has to do with the number of commands in the UI and how each command has to be 'checked' every second by the game, thus causing lag due to having to check 10 at once, instead of just say 3 or 2.
  19. to start, you would simply copy paste the police k9 officer and k9 dog prototype + model from LA mod, into your project. afterwards, directly copy the dog script from the LA mod. now the difficult part, is copy pasting the relevant 'police dog' related lines of code from the LA mod entercar and emptycar scripts. both of those contain the logic which spawns and deletes the k9 dog whenever the unit enters and exits, and is equally important for correct functionality as the main dog script. its a simple matter of adding prototypes to the StrCompare lines so that the code now includes the new vehicles you wanted to include. its possible to include multiple vehicles in my experience, and also have multiple k9 officer variants as well. not particularly easy to do but you'll get to it soon enough.
  20. Its up to the mod author to fix that little information about his/her mod. It wouldnt be my right to modify it without getting word from them beforehand.
  21. To you, the person above you, and everyone else who has had unanswered questions regarding the mod. It would take too much time quoting 5 or 6 people so I just left that in there. I hope it helps you.
  22. Please read mitcake's post. Hopefully it clears any issues up.

    EM2012

    2012 is not moddable at all. No mods for it exist Cross compatibility between Em4 and 2012 doesnt exist either, so you cant play with Em4 players in 2012.
  24. Please refer to what I said in the CPH-Airport topic. This behavior only further antagonizes the mod authors and annoys them, to the point that your comment will come true and they will shutter the mod instead of continuing it. Also, going around the forums and posintg 'RIP mod is dead' on multiple topics is considered spamming and can net you either a warning, or a suspension. Please reconsider next time and think about what you are posting.
