Woltep Posted September 25, 2010 Report Share Posted September 25, 2010 (edited) Official "Emergency and Rescue Simulation Berlin" topichttp://www.ers-berlin.deFeatures:* New missionscript-based freeplay mode* New map* New vehicles* New GUI (General User Interface)* Multilanguage (german / english)You can download the mod hereOkay, let's go through this step by step:1. Download the setup.2. Run the setup, you do NOT need to install this in your Emergency / 911 game folder, just let it install where it wants to.3. Once that's done, run the "ERS starten" program. You find this either on your desktop, start menu or under C:/program files/ERS Berlin. A prompt will open, where you can select either ERS Berlin, or regular Emergency 4. It will tell you that the mod hasn't been downloaded yet, and ask you if you want to download it.4. Wait for the download to finish.5a. If you're running EM4, you can now click "Start Game" in the same prompt used to download it.5b: If you're using 911: FR, it seems that this won't work. Start the game the normal way, then go to "Mods" and activate it like any other mod.Screenshots:Editor:In Game:The Team3D:-Stormi-DerLukas-NNico-EmFreaky-ApexSupport:-Chidea2D & Map:-DavidPersons:-WalterScripting:-Woltep-Bass-TiWeb:-AndreasTechnical Support:-MajenPress Fotos:-Berlin FirefighterGeneral tips and tricks: Vehicles can be towed by the police. Just select a police officer and click on the vehicle. You can dispatch units either with the button or by clicking on a free area anywhere on the map with the left mouse button. The "shift" key changes the priority of some commands. For example it helps you picking up the valve and entering the DLK. You can also transport uninjured people in the RTW. If you don`t manage it to finish an event look for objects or persons on the map that have to be transported. Rediricting the traffic works best on streets with multiple lanes in each direction. The end of the redirection should be near the orignal path of the cars redirected. Othewise they will delete themselves.The stations Tiergarten and Mitte (BF, FF) arrive at first on the scene in most areas of the map. In ERS Berlin you have only a limited amount of water and air. Keep that in mind! When a homicide occurs it is really important to secure evidence. Especially weapons! When confronted with a hazmat situation try first to find the source of contamination and seal it. The doctors car automatically escorts the ambulance to the nearest hospital. Just enter the RTW with the doctor and then send both units home with the "Back to Base" button. Animals can be transported in the KLEF. Firemen can pick up dead animals. In the mod directory XML/bfreeplay.xml you can find a file where you can change the frequency of events, the ingame time and the weather.Vehicle names and their meaningVUKW Traffic ControlEWA Patrol carFUSTW Unmarked Patrol CarNEF Doctors CarRTW AmbulanceLHF Fire EngineTLF PumperELW Batallion ChiefDLK LadderDEKON P Hazardous Materials SquadKLEF Light Equipment TruckGRUKW Group carrierWRW Swift Water RescueKRIKW Crime Scene InvestigationERKKW Hazmat DetectionPKW CarFWK Rescue CraneThis topic is free for general discussion and questions regarding the mod Edited February 13, 2011 by Woltep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randomperson139 Posted September 25, 2010 Report Share Posted September 25, 2010 The Mod looks fantastic so far. Keep up the great job you are doing, and I'm sure it will be amazing to play once released BTW What's an Open Beta version? You said it's not downloadable for everyone.

Woltep Posted September 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2010 What's an Open Beta version?Wikipedia.org : "Open and closed betaDevelopers release either a closed beta or an open beta; closed beta versions are released to a select group of individuals for a user test, while open betas are to a larger community group, usually the general public. The testers report any bugs that they found and sometimes minor features they would like to see in the final version" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randomperson139 Posted September 25, 2010 Report Share Posted September 25, 2010 So the Open Beta is available to download but only for a group of people? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woltep Posted September 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2010 Yes, for a large group of people. Basically everyone who wants to and has the technical understanding to work with our beta tools. Everyone who wants to be a beta tester has to apply and then gets access to an internal forum with further information and downloads.

Kookas Posted September 25, 2010 Report Share Posted September 25, 2010 This mod looks brilliant. I really hope it makes it out, and that the release is nice and stable with minimal bugs. I visited Berlin once. I like how you're implementing the trams, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
