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?

No, I don't think so. Only thing it is changing is map.

hey there

well i was not happy with this map

first the stations are a little too far away
and the incidents are happening too fast a minute into the game i was having earthquake and fires

the vehicles dont respond to the commands

this is juts my opinion

the map is nice and has lots of potential
i hope its gets fixed because i would wanna use it again

sorry if i offended anyone i just waned to give my opinion

great job and keep up the good work

thanks

roberto

I'm sorry you don't like it. The only thing I dislike about fire stations is that fire station one is in bad location with highway in the way and it messes up the pathing of fire trucks. Other than that, I love the accident and the fires mainly take place at the little campground so I station a USFS, brush, HES and a patrol car there at all times on standby.

hey guys

so i downloaded the files i needed to and i followed all the instructions but it doesnt work for me

anyone have any idea why?

or if anyone can give me directions on how to do it step by step

thank you i would greatly appreciated

Next time could you be more specific as to whats not working. Example, its the old map, it crashes when freeplay starts, etc.

For the most part you should be fine. However you may need to make a few adjustments to correct things like the fire trucks facing the rear garage door rather then the front.

first the stations are a little too far away

That might be true and to each there own however I think it adds to realism as not every fire station has perfect coverage.

and the incidents are happening too fast a minute into the game i was having earthquake and fires

This can be altered. It may have to be done in the editor but I would think editing fp_params_endless.xml or fp_params_endless_d.xml will fix that.

The vehicles dont respond to the commands

Like what commands?

sorry if i offended anyone i just waned to give my opinion

I am not offended as its not my map for one, and for two the events can be altered. Furthermore, the vehicles not responding is an isolated incident so far, so I think it may just be a problem on your end.

ok just downloaded the files and installed. looks good, but id like to point out a few things. The campground area, there is still construction sound there. probably from the old map.
also the path for the vehicle to get to the pd isnt working correctly. when the vehicles come down from the north they keep turning around and going back north in a circle. the pd vehicles make it to the parking lot on the north side and just park there.

also since i am using 911 version all of the hydrants are spewing water all over the place. ive tried to get an engi over there to fix, but it wont let it.

another thing to look at is you cant click on vehicles. you can drag over em to select them, then assign them a hot number but thats it.


anyways keep up the good work!

These bugs have been already been discovered and reported in previous posts. Its been out for quite a while.

The hydrant effects is for deluxe but for some reason its showing that in freeplay. it doesn't matter though because traffic is still flowing.

sorry didnt realize that there are 2 different free play maps! has this one been discontinued?

The other freeplay map is second version of this map but its better imo. So basically, yes this has been discontinued.

Is it saying you must wait 2 minutes? If so, then wait 2 minutes. That happens a lot. If that's not what it's saying then please let me know.

[Pearl71]

iam still trying to get thye map to load.... i havent been able to get to play any of woods maps

[762SkS]

this map has been discontinued, try the second edition.

[Pearl71]

still same

i agree, none of woods maps have been able to load for me at all... doing it the correct way every time... only thing thats ever changed for me is the little overview map in the top right hand corner

[EldoradoMan]

I can't get it to work. Its downloaded, its saved; What am I doing wrong?

[Maffegozer]

same pearl,

they never actually play for me either. it just the normal free play map, and i doing it correctly..... i use 911 FR

Then you are not doing it correctly otherwise it would be working..
It works for me so you are doing something wrong for sure....

Before you do this back up your mods map folder to your desktop
Right instructions are
People with EM4 deluxe
Put these folders in your LA mod maps as they dfreeplay.e4m dfreeplay.dds including the eft file The d represents deluxe believe it or not


People with 911 first responders and EM4 UK edition
edit the files dfreeplay.e4m dfreeplay.dds to freeplay.e4m freeplay.dds before you place them in the LA mods map folder do not change the eft file at all just drop it into the folder as it is

It will ask you if you want to overwrite the the e4m and dds files say yes

This will work, if you follow these instructions then you will not have any issues

Where is the LA Mod folder located?

[EldoradoMan]

Have you installed the LA MOD is first question,if not goto downloads section,top of page

And if/once you have it installed it willbe located here

Start my computer C/Program files/sixteentons entertainment or wizard works/Emergency 4 or 911 first responders/Mods/LAMOD 1.81/Maps

I left something out. I've downloaded the LA Mod, but I need help finding the maps folder. I don't see it in there.


Never mind, I found it.

Download The New Freeplay Map Version 1.2
Download links below the instructions. Read the instructions first!!! I made them with a reason.
Installation Instructions:
1. Download and unpack the New_Freeplay_Floor.zip file. (25mb's! large)
2. Move the folder 'Los Angeles Mod v1.7' to your Emergency 4/Mods folder.
3. This is a universal file, so it's for both versions and won't replace any file.

Now you should have in your mods\Los Angeles Mod v1.7\maps the following file: newfreeplay.eft
(So you don't have to rename it!)

4. Download and unpack the New_Freeplay_deluxe.zip OR New_Freeplay_normal.zip file. (Depending on you version of em4)
5. Move the folder 'Los Angeles Mod v1.7' to your Emergency 4/Mods folder.
6. Make sure all older files will be overwritten (otherwise you did something wrong).

What do u mean on step 6? What are the files that I have to overwrite.
