enzo12 Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 I would like to know if there is an existing Software that embeds the Calls from Em4/ 911:Fr to it like a CAD or (like a Flight Strips on ATC Game) you know when you dispatch units its easier to have an indicator weather its busy or not and what situation is it taking? if not is there an interesting Developer that can develop it ?

itchboy Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 Such a thing does exist. In the Winterberg mod, it is on the bottom left part of the screen that shows the statuses of vehicles ingame. Its a very complex process with how they did it, but the drawback is that the function only works on their mod. It works with single player and MP and can also be linked to a third party 'FMS' tool that is used in multiplayer situations. It would take an unreasonable amount of time to port it over to other mods. Other German made mods also have their own version of this dispatch system and some even have radio statuses that function as they would IRL. Everyone else on the other hand uses a non functioning CAD that has to be manually edited to match entries. Usually it is an MS Excel or Google docs that can be edited every time a dispatch happens. Usually the people using these are clans with 4 people max ingame and a fifth on the VoIP channel doing the dispatching. Such a setup in single There are no developers willing to do such a major undertaking. There just aren't many programmers in this community who can do it to begin with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMCC626 Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 Agreed, the Winterberg CAD/FMS system is about the only thing even close to what you are talking about, and if you dig into their code you'll find why nobody is doing it. Unless you have a Bachelors of Science in C++ I would likely stick to using a Google doc. Sent from my E6830 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalowildwings03 Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 Using a Spreadsheet works well, as long as you have previous knowledge in which units are in the Mod. Sometimes I even do it realistically and don't send out units who would not be on call at that time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
