Hi guys, got all my vehicles in the editor, lighted etc etc but was wondering how i get them on the physical Ingame menu? Any help would be greatly appreciated Thanks in advance Max

Hi All, I was just wondering if someone could explain to me how to add new equipment to Emergency 4? Is it a simple case of adding the model file to a certain directory, such as Equipment/Police or something, and then importing in to the game like vehicles; creating certain properties, naming it and attaching it to a mod file? If so, it would be great if someone could give me more direction on this, and explain to me the specifics (The models themselves would be for the Police to carry, and possibly terrorists) Regards, Rlast.

I am trying to change the order of the vehicles that appear in the game list. So, I went into the Units folder and renamed all the folders with numbers and new names like this: 01_presidential_limo 02_secretservice 03_PD_sanfrancisco1 and so on..... For some reason when I start the game, the order is changed but not in the order I chose by changing the names. They're a mixed up. What did I do wrong?

I created my own mod and I also added a new person to one of the existing vehicles. I used a civilian to make him a news reporter. I used the file 'civilianman02_blue'. Here's what I did: added the new model with texture files in Models Folder (made sure the filenames were the same) Opened Editor, created the prototype file, linked it with the model files. While in Editor, added traits, commands, talkmic, etc. In Units Folder, went into the Personnel Folder, edited the Units.xml file to show the path to the new person ('civilianman02_blue') In Units Folder, went into the Vehicles Folder, edited the Units.xml file to the existing vehicle changing unit id name In Specs Folder, edited the portraits.xml file to include a new line: mod:Prototypes\Persons\04 LA Tec\civilman02_blue.e4p In Langs Folder, edited the infotexts.xml and portraits.xml file That's all I did. Did I forget something? What happens is that when I start the game, and go to the vehicle list, I click on the vehicle, and the game crashes to the desktop. Not sure what I missed....

I've been looking through the Forums on this site for awhile, and finally decided to create an account, as I have a problem that I've been struggling with. I have been "cloning" and modifying a few personnel and vehicles from the Los Angeles Mod (for personal use only), and I wish to add them into the game, mostly for Freeplay. There are a few problems I've been unable to solve: 1. I wanted to add a new skin to a vehicle, and I followed the steps in a tutorial I found (http://forum.emergen...nning-vehicles/). I cloned the vehicles I wanted, including one in particular, which I made a new skin for. After following the steps in that tutorial and creating the new vehicle skin, I opened the Editor to edit the prototype for it. I loaded the L.A. Mod, then opened the editing window for it. I wanted to change the skin of this cloned vehicle, but all I can see are the .V3O files, which I can't seem to open in any program (such as Paint.net). I want to keep the existing vehicle and have a clone of it with the new skin in the game at the same time, but I have yet to find a tutorial that tells me how to do this. 2. I want to add new vehicles and personnel to Freeplay, and I want them to be buyable and usable just like the default L.A. Mod units are. Like the vehicle above, I cloned a few vehicles and personnel, then made minor changes for personal use in Freeplay. When I worked with them in the Editor, things seemed fine when finished, as well as when I changed the game files. When I opened Freeplay, they did not appear, and more recently even crashed the game in the same way as the Editor crashed in Problem #1 above, with an instant crash to the Desktop, and no error messages or anything else. The crash happened when I scrolled to the bottom of the Police Vehicles menu, and happened at least twice. When I reinstalled L.A. Mod, the problem went away. I don't want to change existing units, as I want my new units in Freeplay with all of the existing units. I haven't changed anything such as models or anything that seems to be extremely complicated. I know that Hoppah, the creator of the L.A. Mod, has a tutorial on adding new vehicles, but the main site where it is seems to be down, making the tutorial apparently unavailable. Other tutorials, such as the one I gave the link to above, have been helpful until the very end, but I can't seem to make these work. I have very little experience with this, and I haven't found out how to make this work in Freeplay based on other posts. Thanks in advance.

I have the FDNY mod for EM4 and I was wondering how hard it would be to add a 3rd station myself, I went into the editor, loaded the NYC mod and added a station but when i save the map it only save under the NYC mod and I cant pull it up when I play the mod, any help?
