I installed the mod yesterday, and the instillation seemed to go fine, but when i tried to launch the game, it begins to start like normal, but then closes out before the first intro video loads, I have uninstalled and deleted all the files for the game reinstalled just the game and that same problem happens (note: I own 911/FR, not EM:4) I have not been able to fix the problem by conventional meas, the game itself wont work at this point, and this all happened after I installed 1.9.
Why is it that firefighters are able to run into a burning building while others run out? It is because each firefighter knows that if he can save one life, put out one more fire, then people can keep on living their normal lives and they have the courage to keep going back to work each day.

screen of the bug

as you can see i have in the menu only missions 11-30. Where are the la mod missions? As I see, I can download the La mod and the patch again and can test it.


Nice scores! Did you use the 'New campaign' button in menu? If not, please upload your logfile after loading the mod. Maybe it reveals something about the problem.

I think I figured out the problem. In the script below, you never allow a transition back to 'fair' once it's raining. Once it starts raining it will always rain.

<climate initial="fair">
<weather name="fair" changeduration="15.0" minduration="400" maxduration="800">
<fog intensity="0.0" color="ffffff"/>
<rain intensity="0.0"/>
<storm intensity="0.0" speed="0.0"/>
<flash frequencyfactor="0.0"/>
<sound name=""/>
<sound2 name=""/>

<transition state="light rain" weight="1.0"/>
</weather>
<weather name="light rain" changeduration="15.0" minduration="30" maxduration="90">
<fog intensity="0.1" color="7F7F7F"/>
<rain intensity="0.2"/>
<storm intensity="0.1" speed="0.1"/>
<flash frequencyfactor="0.0"/>
<sound name=""/>
<sound2 name=""/>

<transition state="heavy rain" weight="1.0"/>
<transition state="thunderstorm" weight="1.5"/>
</weather>
<weather name="heavy rain" changeduration="15.0" minduration="60" maxduration="180">
<fog intensity="0.3" color="7F7F7F"/>
<rain intensity="0.5"/>
<storm intensity="0.1" speed="0.2"/>
<flash frequencyfactor="0.0"/>
<sound name="mod:Audio/Ambient/rain01.wav"/>
<sound2 name=""/>

<transition state="light rain" weight="1.0"/>
<transition state="thunderstorm" weight="2.0"/>
</weather>
<weather name="thunderstorm" changeduration="15.0" minduration="45" maxduration="145">
<fog intensity="0.4" color="606060"/>
<rain intensity="1.0"/>
<storm intensity="0.5" speed="0.4"/>
<flash frequencyfactor="1.0"/>
<sound name="mod:Audio/Ambient/rain02.wav"/>
<sound2 name="mod:Audio/Ambient/thunder02.wav"/>

<transition state="heavy rain" weight="1.0"/>
<transition state="light rain" weight="1.0"/>
</weather>
</climate>
</freeplayparameters>

First of all congrats on the launching hoppah! great work!

I dont know if this is a bug or not - or has been fixed.

1.9

If you go to the right side of the map you'll see cars coming from the cave. Sometimes there will be a blue car just sitting right in the middle of intersection. No clue where it came from, initial thought, the car might be coming from the cave direction and I blocked that road so no car should be coming.

But the blue car is just came out of nowhere. any idea why?

I'm not sure what you mean. Can you make a screenshot of that?

I noticed problems with traffic jams in many places of new freeplay map. Mostly its caused by cars, that while changing the lane, turning left collides with another driving straight on crossroads. Then both cars stop .. and never move. Frequently even Police cant fix it redirecting them.

@Hopah - BTW as of siren script - does it work fine now ? I had little time last months, so I haven't found sufficient time to see what i can do, btw - this SDK that Bass-Ti send me does not contain all command that is used in script (maybe because its older version of SDK described there than this which is used in script..)

I'm pretty sure this is a bug, on the big car wreck I seem to always fail it very quickly. I sent units and had about 1 or two people at the hospital already but for some reason I failed it. This has happened twice. Both times one person died in the wreck, could this be why I'm failing?

When looking from the front of the second fire station (smaller one) i can't click the ambulance from the outside and can only click it when my cursor is inside the station.

I've had about 4 'Hostage Situations", but there are never any hostages, just some dude with a gun - Is that bug or just the game's dumb AI?

Also, I forgot what unit has the negotiator in it....remind me please. :

I think that's how it is, the game is just slightly stupid :P

And the SWAT Rescues, the slicktop (I think) the helicopter, and the LAPD SUV have the negotiator

I was just wondering why the tiller has the flood light command but no flood lights? I clicked it and I think it actually remove the trailer from the cab. Maybe I accidental clicked the detach trailer button and didnt realize it as I wasnt able to reproduce.

Awesome job on 1.9!

I tried some missions but I found a bug when I played the "Police chase ends in tragedy" mission as I could not find the diver anywhere in the fire engine section and therefore could not put him in a vehicle and use him to recover the casualties in the water.

Also had a homicide with the victim underneath one of the bridge pylons

I dont think you can do anything to avoid that, as I assume that homicides are placed more or less randomly by the game itself?

I ran into this too. I have also started the bus bomb mission, failed it, and then missions 1-10 disappear from the menu selection. I am going to try a clean install to see if it works.

For me, i installed it and patched it, and when i try to run it, I got the Mod is corrupt or not compatible error. It loaded and ran fine. Might just have been a bad download but just throwing it out there.

I originally had all the missions, but after playing mission 11 first I couldn't ever play the LA mod missions.
