Hi everyone.. I read the forums often, but rarely post, but I felt like adding my 2 cents worth on this occasion.. It's a sad day when a community of like minded people cannot respect and understand the wishes of others who take their own time to make something that allows this game to continue to be played and enjoyed.. If it wasn't for the long and hard work of modders to create amazing mods, new scripts, maps, vehicles etc, this game would have died long ago.. I wish I had the ability to mod, I wouldn't even know where to begin, so I have been solely reliant on other people to make mods.. This however, does not entitle me nor do I have a right to expect anything from anyone.. I am extremely grateful and can appreciate the time and effort put in, to allow me to enjoy this game for as long as I have.. I find it hard to believe that people take this for granted.. I find it hard to understand, that with all the discussion about it and the rules of the forum that we all agree to, people still can't do a simple task and that is, ask permission to use other people's mods or parts of them.. If they say no, respect that, if they say yes, at least have the decency to credit and acknowledge their work and I'm really dumbfounded that someone would have the nerve to pass it off as their own.. Selfishly, I hope this gets resolved, so people continue to mod and I continue to be able to enjoy EM4 for a lot longer.. But, I completely understand why modders would choose against it.. To the true modders / developers and teams who all put their own time and long hours in so that I can enjoy to continue to play this game, I take my hat off to you and say thanks.. I hope the community can learn from this, resolve the issues and move forward.. Cheers

Couldn't agree more.. Just remember these guys (as with all modders) are doing this for nothing, in their own time so people like me and you can have a great new experience when playing EM4, they don't owe us anything.. I think we need to remember this when people start getting a little demanding!!.. It's Christmas everyone.. It's not going to kill anyone if the mod doesn't come out today or tomorrow.. However, it will come out eventually.. Bama, Itchboy and anyone else involved with this fantastic mod, go and enjoy Christmas with your family and friends, we will all still be here.. God Speed, and Merry Christmas to everyone in the EM community..

Screenshots look absolutely amazing.. Incredible detail.. Really looking forward to this coming out.. Great work Bama and co..

I think in that info, it is referring to a 9 litre water fire extinguisher, not a water tank.. 9 litres is the size of a bucket, hardly a tank.. It would be Fire Water 9lts and Dry Powder 6kg.. However, I'm certainly not trying to argue and not disputing you have more knowledge on this matter.. I was just saying, that it is very strange for a dedicated Rescue Truck (as it implies to me in EM5) to have a water tank and pump as opposed to an Engine (Rescue Engine) with rescue capabilities.. Anywho, apologies for getting off topic..

theparaniod you are talking about a Rescue Engine the Hilfeleistungs-Löschgruppenfahrzeug (HLF). Similar to the engine (LF) but with far more rescue equipment (i.e. Jaws of Life and a winch) on board. which is different to an RW.. A Rescue truck, the Rüstwagen (RW).Usually either a larger panel truck or a smaller truck, they are equipped with a broad range of rescue gear i.e. Jaws of Life, a winch, saws, cutters or work platforms and does not carry water. . I think the Heavy Rescue in EM5 (which is the vehicle that can connect hoses to) is technically incorrect, as it resembles an RW, not a HLF.. The hoses should connect to the Water Tender in the game IMO..

I completely agree about the models and would love to create my own, however I don't know where to start!! I have read most of the tutorial info, but I don't really know where to actually begin.. Mainly in relation to what programs are most commonly used to create the models, how or where do you actually start getting a real life vehicle into a program to then build a model, animating the model etc.. If someone has a few minutes (figuratively speaking) to point me in the right direction, that would be awesome or if there is any other info, that would be great also.. I would really like to learn and make my own, as some of the models other people have made and amazing.. A big thank you to everyone who continues to make EM4 mods and to those who will help make EM5 amazing as well..

Thanks olevla.. I completely missed the mega.co.nz link.. Downloading now..

"We are still working on the mod,there are some bug still not fixed,and now HKMod Beta 0.3 is relased,you can find it here" When I click on "here" in the first post, It takes me to the other HK page "Hong Kong mod V2 in progress [topic OFF] please pay attention to another post In that page, there are 2 files which open - HK MOD BETA 0.2 http://howfile.com/f...owbbs/b88423f8/ BETA 0.3 PATCH http://howfile.com/f...owbbs/c465b579/ however, when you click to download either of them, they both keep timing out.. I was wondering if anyone else is having this problem, if not, how did you get it to work and is it available for download anywhere else?? Thanks in advance Kindest Regards

Hey HK Team.. Mod looks awesome, however the download for HK MOD BETA 0.2 and BETA 0.3 PATCH both keep timing out. Is it possible to upload them somewhere else? Looking forward to playing. Regards

Hi everyone.. I am still having a CTD problem and it is only when i camera over Rambleside station.. I have updated my nvidia drivers, I removed the turnout gear from the wall of Rambleside, I've uninstalled and reinstalled the mod several times to no avail!! Is there anyone who may have any further help on the matter or who was getting CTD and has fixed it? logfile.txt

I don't think it's my computer, I'm running Win 7 64bit i7-3770K CPU @ 3.50GHz 16Gb RAM Nvidia GTX660Ti 2Gb But I will try deleting the uniforms and see how that goes.. I've just played for about an hour before CTD, so not complaining.. As I said before, really good mod, thoroughly enjoy the game play and thanks to the team for all the hard work.. Thanks for the help e34p..

Yep, this is also when I get the CTD.. But it doesn't happen everytime I move the camera to Rambleside, but if it's going to CTD, this will be when it happens..

First of all, great mod.. I appreciate the work that has gone into it, and enjoying the game play ie calling the retained FF's, the units available on map and from off map.. Well Done.. I am also having CTD issues, but have not yet found any reason as to why.. Sometimes I can play for 5mins, other times 20mins and then for no apparent reason, it will crash.. I am playing freeplay, not the saved game.. Could you also explain the basic role or difference between the Crew Managers and the Watch Managers? Is it possible to refill appliances from the Water Tanker, or can they only be filled from a hydrant with one length of hose? Once again, great work.. Thanks

Not sure if anyone else has had this happen, or if it's meant to be that way, but I had an call for a motor vehicle accident, but there were about 8 separate accidents all over the map at the same time!! Not sure if it's a bug or not?? Also, when I use the sign trailer, it doesn't stop or redirect any cars, they drive straight through.. Apart from that, love the mod.. Great work..

Great work, models look awesome..
