Patch 6 in first post. Added ability to call units from LASD and LAPP stations. In regards to calling units from LAPD Station, its dependent on what you have parked. The LAPD CD,LAPD Charger, and CHP Charger should work find. Unmarked cars will not be called. Patch 6 also fixes the light force images. I think this hsould be the last patch now as things seem to be working pretty well. Down the line I will probably fix the cal patrol car command so it will call just about any patrol car on the map.

So would that mean you will begin to devote more time to the two w00ds maps you are editing? I checked the preview and they look great! I have just played your v5.1 4x4 submod and other then the icons missing it worked like a charm! Havent yet played v6 but hope to soon! Great work!

Thanks for all of your work, USman

[Xplorer4x4]

Yes, w00d map is not far from the testing stages anyways. With this project pretty much done for the time, and the holiday weekend over with, hopefully I have some more time to focus on w00ds map now.

WOW WOW WOW

I like what you've done. Love the mod mate.

Question, I upgraded my copy of your mod which is freakin awesome might I add, to the newest verison with patch 6 and wow it runs sweet but i noticed i lost the ems charger, extra batt chief at station 2, and that sweet remake of the pumper you did as well as the awesom unmarked unit. I pretty sure I did something wrong and would like a bit of advice if available please. Thanks

Strange, nothing was changed in terms of enabling and disabling units. I would delete the mod folder, then do a clean install of the LA Mod. Apply LA Mod patch 2 or 3(i always forget which one we are on) and then apply the main submod download, and the patch for my submod.

After patch 6:
1: Dauphin still missing.
2: Rescue 7 still holds 3 & 2 not 5...
3: Call backup commands work beautifully.
4: FF/s stay deployed!!!

Great work!

Great work!

Initially, my rescue 7 had the same problem with 3/2 seats, but I sent it back to HQ and called another one, and it was correct. As for the parking issue, if you just tell it to pull straight forward and put it in standby, it works great. Nifty idea to turn that into a heavy rescue instead of a big ambulance.

I also have an issue with Gated Wye functionality: I can deploy, but cannot pick them up and disconnect. Any tips?

I spent about 4 hours playing this today, its amazing. I noticed a few new events that I hadn't seen before (it could be that they just never came up?) but there was a 5-car MVA with extrication near the apartments down by FS2, a few new arson missions, and a stolen vehicle. If you added those, great job! Kudos on having the bomb squad tech on the ATF wagon too.

1. Check the first post in regards to AUS. It applies here I think. You say its still missing but i dont think theres been any reports of it missing, so I havent checked in to this. Being a TEC Unit I dont recall removing it from the game since theres so few TEC units the TEC menus not cluttered enough to really worry about it.

2. I noticed this to after the patch. For those who want to fix it themselves, edit lafirestationstart.script. Search FOR OBJ_LRA and under that will be a line of code that says something like Set.MaxPassengers(3) change the 3 to 5.

1. This is a known issue with the gated wye from the LA Mod itself. Hoppah is unable to fix this, and I doubt I will either.

2. I have edited the freeplay_params.xml file to increase the event frequency for some events and decreased others. This helps give it a slightly different experience then the stock LA Mod. However, I have not added any actual missions/events. That will come down the road after the other submods are releases.

One more thing I noticed: swat vehicles (smaller ones like the bearcat) aren't able to park at the police station.

As in they do not have the command? Script error? Could you be more secific.

[andrew2007]

No I havent looked in to modifying it. It may be worth while. Will look in to it.


Actually i didnt remove them. I never modified the Call Patrol Car script, but seeing as I need to update the patch to have the light force icons, I will try to look into this briefly.

Thanks for adding that feature in Just saves some crucial seconds when working the front line Patch 6 is refining the submod down to near perfection! Keep up the good work.

It is in the TEC menu, it just appears as a box with rotors.

Then grab the v3o and dds files for it from the la mod.

Strange, i will try to check in to this shortly.

1. Some things i've noticed is the two parking spots for the LAPD at the doughnut shop don't seem to work, I had tried to move them like you showed earlier in the post but they never seem to park there. I reloaded a fresh map with the two spots still at the doughnut shop and they still don't seem to want to park there...any ideas?

2. Also, I think I may be in the minority on this forum who prefers the platform over the tiller (...and would like to alter my script to put it back into FS1 (and also leave it at FS2) i'm not very familier with scripting so I was wanting to know if just simply changing out the tiller to ladder will do that or will it take more than that to add the tower back?

1. No idea what the problem is. Sorry but i dont plan to look in to it either. I cant see a need for more then 3 parking spots really.

2. Replacing the units is simple enough. The problem is with out some extra script work, the tower will not know which station to return to since it will be in both stations. You could clone the prototype for the ladder though. Name the e4p file exactly the same but add a 2 so it looks like tower_ladder2.e4p. Then define OBJ_TOWER2 in the constants at the top and replace OBJ_TILLER with OBJ_TOWER2 through out all 3 scripts. I wont be doing this but perhaps some one else will edit my scripts to do this.

I have a problem. ONLY the swat heavy resuce has the go to the police station. NOT the ATF heavy resuce, NOT the ATF moblie cmd ,and NOT any three swat trucks. Any ideas?

You could have just confirmed the bug as it was just posted about in my last post. Besides only the ATF NRU should have the police station command when it comes to the ATF Vehicles. The ATF CV and ATF MCP will not be set to return to the police station in any of my mods.

[firefighter243]

What about the SWT SUV and SWT rescue truck 1 and 2?
