Emergency Call Ambulance 4 speed trasmission

Post by Gian_Luca_90 »

Hello!
How do you set up the 4 speed transmission?
I remember that you have to manually add some lines to the supermodel.ini.
In the old forum it was written how to do it but it is no longer accessible.

Thanks

You have to go into the service menu (Game Assignments-Gear Lever) and change to 4-SPEED. I seem to remember that the 4 speed function dont works in the emulator, just the sequential shifting (UP-DOWN).

However, I remember well that by adding a command to the .ini file with the keys specified, the 4-speed gearbox then works.
Unfortunately I lost the old setup, and in the old forum it was written how to do it.

To enable the 4-speed shifter you need to open Games.xml, scroll to Emergency Call Ambulance and change the line:

Code: Select all

<input type="shiftupdown" />
to:

Code: Select all

<input type="shift4" />

@gm_matthew That's a pretty neat config. Hope it's officially documented somewhere in Supermodel's help/readme.

The README is hopelessly out of date and needs to be redone from scratch, in my opinion. Probably best to do it as a README.md file on the GitHub page.

Good idea! GitHub also has Wiki feature that allows you to document the emulator in a more sophisticated fashion using markdown syntax instead of just 1 readme.md file.

This can be really leveraged for a modern documentation available for all - https://docs.github.com/en/communities/ ... bout-wikis

Would be interesting to try to update the README by feeding it into Gemini along with the complete source code and asking it to generate an up-to-date markdown doc.
