Hi all,

 

I replaced the model of the firestation with a model i downloaded. i didn´t make any alterations whatsoever exept for moving the virtual objects to their new places.

but now, when i start freeplay the stations are empty and i have to call all the vehicles from of-map again, after calling they will return to the station normally. second: the commands to spawn personnel in the fire station also stopped working. i can press the buttons but nothing happens...

 

does anybody have any clue what could have gone wrong?

 

thanks in advance,

Hi,
You need to edit the script LAFirestationStart to make them spawn at the start of the game

[DMC]

no, theoretically i wouldn't. i haven't changed anything. i just moved the 'VO's to another location. no other files have been altered

maybe you removed the control panel of the fire station, it executes the command VcmdStart, the one that spawns the vehicles. without it the vehicles dont spawn. look at this, this is a piece of the script call fp_freeplay.script in the folder Los Angeles Mod v2.1\Scripts\Game\Mission:

 

 

void start()

{

GameObjectList l1("fire_station_controlpanel");

GameObject Obj = l1.GetObject(0);

Game::ExecuteCommand("VcmdStart", &Obj);

 

 

it says it needs an object called fire_station_controlpanel to execute VcmdStart

 

PS: check if your tiller trailer spawns when you call the tiller cabin

[DMC]

The control panel is there, including a second one in the ground called spawn_check. and the tiller works normally

then i cant help you, sorry. i guess others can, but not me

It could be the firestation has the wrong name, the object itself. 

 

The original firestation is called fire_station.

 

It's found in the original LAFireStationStart script under the const(ant) char(arcter) NAME_FIRESTATION.

 

It looks like this, and can be found at the top of the script.

const char NAME_FIRESTATION[]			= "fire_station";

Now there's two things you can do to get this to work (if this is the problem).

You could simply rename the firestation object you placed in the editor to "fire_station" (without the quotes ofcourse)(This is the easy way), or you could change the value behind NAME_FIRESTATION to whatever your firestation is called. This could cause some problems with other scripts though, I'm not sure.

 

This COULD help, I can't promise anything.

Let me know if it works.
