Slow down Call Numbers

[Guest FireFighter/EMT Garland]

Guys to be honest, I don't know how to mod. After I downloaded the 1.5 LA Mod, things are going too fast for me to keep up, and play the way I want to play. I try to play the game as real as possible, do all the little things and what not. With the number of calls though, all I can do is run from one to the next, it's fun, but that gets old quick.

Could someone please just help me figure out what to change so that I wont have so many calls so quick.

yes I have searched through the forms already, and the only thing I saw was to go through and change each call to happen less... I don't know if that would work or what exactly I would be doing so I didn't do it lol...

The file you want to edit is fp_params_endless.xml for the endless game and is found in \Mods\Los Angeles Mod v1.5\Specs

Some key parts of the file to help you tailor it the way you want:

<MinDurationBetweenEvents value = "200.0" /> <--I keep mine between 200 and 250, make it higher for more dead periods

<MaxIdleDuration value = "5.0" /> <-- 5 seems to work good

		<EFPEventFall> <--type of call
			<Enabled value = "0" /> <--0 for off, 1 for on, this allows you to disable things you don't want
			<!-- AverageFrequency: average number of events per 10 minutes -->
			<AverageFrequency value = "0.7" /> <--play with this setting to change how often that single event happens

Hope that helps,

Mike

First locate where your game is installed, you'll see a folder called 911 - First Responders

Next, look in Mods\Los Angeles Mod v1.5\Specs and you'll see the file called fp_params_endless.xml

If you are still unable to locate it, I suggest using windows ctrl-f feature in the my computer window.

I'm having similar problems with 1.9. Its just call after call with no break, I cant play realistically like I would like. Mike I did try what you said to do for the person previously asking. I could find all the files you said to edit. But I cant edit them. The file opens in xml format. What can I do? Thanks

[Guest miked9372]

open them with notepad or wordpad

I can open them fine. But when I go to save I get "access denied"

You have to edit the security options so you have full control. Right Click on the file and click properties. Go to security and edit. Click on users and make sure full control or something like that is ticked.
