Does this work with L.A. Mod 1.8??


You don't need to quote the whole startpost for asking the question ;). And yes it's compatible with 1.8.

Ok, I know w00d and another member just answered you but if you look at the post just before yours, you would see where I just posted that it was compatible with 1.8. That is ridiculous.

Sorry, but that just ticked me off.

Just to let all know,both me and soldjaboy are workng on the map with wOOd's permission,it will take a while to complete as we all are quite busy with work and stuff,soldjaboy has come up with some new idea's for the map,and hopefully with approval they canbe added.

Although this map had some issues,it is a great map and wOOd deserves a great thankyou,as all we are doing is bug finding and fixing hopefully,anyways as soon as we have anything else to add we will let ya know.

Once we are happy the map willbe uploaded again for all to use

Peace out to all

Open the zip files and follow instructions below


Goto my computer C/ProgramFiles/Wizard works/911 first responders/mods/Lamod1.8/maps
Drop the downloaded files in the map folder and it should ask if you want to overwrite them,just say yes and it should be fine

If you have EM4 uk version then the you navigate to

C/ProgramFiles/sixteen tons entertainment/EM4/Mods/Lamod1.8/Maps

You must download the program called WinRAR. Its completely Free but after 40 days, it will annoy you and ask you to buy full version, but you don't have to. Here is the link to the download page and scroll down to the 3.80 because I'm sure you don't want beta lol. Choose your language and either 32 bit or 64 bit. http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm


Hope this helps.

Are you trying to open the actual file 'newfreeplaymap.eft'?

What you need to do is download the file, select the open with WinRAR. When WinRAR comes up, just click on the extract to at the top and extract the file to the desktop. After doing that, you should see the folder and instructions. All you need to do then is follow the instructions on where to put the file with the readme.

It depends some of the path finding got shited up. Mostly from the pd to roads and from the hospital.

What 2 files did you download just to make sure you got the right ones?

You need the floor map and the new freeplay map depending on which version you have. Once you download them, you just need to go into the mods folder, then LA Mod v1.8, and finally maps and paste both of those files there. Then load the game, go to modifications, load the mod you edited and should work.

I'm sure you knew all this but just making sure no steps were missed. Other than that, I am unsure what the problem could be. You might find some luck going through some posts in the past and see if you can find anything from there.

It would be nice of w00ds if hes still around to combine the files togeather so you download one package for 911:FR/EM4 or one package for Em4:DX.

This is cool to see this being worked on again. As said before a big Thank you to Wood for getting this started for us. and thanks to Soldjaboy and the others who are continuing to fix bugs as they are found. I don't have any scripting or editing skills but If I can help test things as they are fixed let me know. I have both 911:FR and EM4 Deluxe on my computer.

Was the pathing fix for this map ever released?

It was but the file didn't work so it was taken off. Unsure if it will be put back up.

Step by step: Download floor map and which version of EM4 you have. Unpack the file to desktop. Copy files to the maps folder of your mod (c:\Program Files\Sixteen Tons\Emergency 4\Mods\LA Mod v1.8\Maps ). Then load EM4, load the mod and start a new game and then you got w00d's map.

Your question: Did you start a new game, if you followed all instructions there should be no mistake.

If I have altered some scripts. (ex. Switching the HAZMAT truck out for a HES in LAFD Station 2) can I still download this map? Would any of the files conflict?
