Hi, I just noticed your message. Thanks for your offer. Maybe you've noticed, but the Dutch Mod is "kind of dead". I mean, if you've read my post over the years, you can see that I've tried everything in my power to keep the mod alive, but there were no modders anymore; despite the several call outs I made. If you're willing to pick up the mod again, I'm happy to provide you with all the information I have and maybe we could try to take it from there. But mind you, I'm NOT a modder myself, I'll only advise and give suggestions and helped make the Dutch Mod to get this far. So if you're really willing to try, please send me a PM and we'll talk some more. Again, thanks for your offer. I apologize for my late response. Hope to hear from you. Cheers!! Robert.

Hi, what is it that you're saying?

Hi Guys, Just to inform you, that recently the Wuppertal Mod v.0.9.2 had been released. Check it out!! http://www.emergency-forum.de/index.php?thread/65783-emergency-wuppertal-version-0-9-2/&postID=1046351&highlight=Wuppertal%2Bmod#post1046351 On this German site, you only need to click the download button; in German: "Herunterladen". The game is in English and is really awesome! Have fun! Cheers!! Robert. ?

I don't think it will work anymore. The developer quit modding and there has been no updates for the later EM 2016, - 2017, - 20 patches...? Cheers!! Robert.

Hi guys, I just want to inform you that I recently came across a new Emergency 5 Mod: "Emergency Wuppertal" (Version 0.9.1). I've played with it for a little while and I must say, if you really love playing Emergency 5, playing the Wuppertal mod will be really worth your while. It is still under further development, but the now released version is very much promising for the future. The mod is naturally to be installed and played with the Emergency 5 game. Naturally it is also to be played with Emergency 2016/2017/20. The Wuppertal mod obviously contains the emergency vehicles (Police, Fire Department and EMS) of the German city Wuppertal, but there's no Wuppertal city map. Instead, once you've installed the mod, you can play the Wuppertal emergency vehicles in the "Emergency 5" cities of Munich, Berlin, Hamburg and Cologne. As probably most of you don't speak German, I must tell you that their site (unfortunately) is in German: https://www.facebook.com/EmergencyWuppertal/. However, I was promised that, as soon as Version 1.0 will be released, the developers will make sure that all their postings about the Wuppertal Mod will be not only on their (German) Facebook site anymore, but also here on our International Emergency forum. They will also then keep us informed about their updates and patches, and answer your questions and/or respond to your issues on our forum as well. Also nice to know, is the fact that the Wuppertal developers are working together with KillerConsti. If I understood correctly, Killerconsti made it possible that the German mod is to be completely played in English as well. As we've all been waiting for new or updated "Emergency 5" mods, I think the Wuppertal Mod should be very much welcomed here on our forum. The Wuppertal Mod as well as its first "Hotfix" (both zip.files) are to be downloaded here: http://www.emergency-forum.de/filebase/index.php?entry%2F2738-emergency-wuppertal-version-0-9-1%2F. As in February 2016 we were informed about the development of the Emergency 5 Mod: "Bieberfelde Next Generation", it became very quiet on our forum about its further developments and/or its status quo, as the developers didn't provide us any update information; at least, through our forum that is. If you're still curious about its development, you can check their Facebook site, where you can see that progress in its development has been made: https://www.facebook.com/search/top/?q=bieberfelde modifikation Also, I would like to point out to you, a completely new Emergency game from a complete other level; it's mind-blowing! The game "EmergeNYC" is still in development but it is already to be played as a single player or in multiplayer mode. Updates and patches are released on regular basis, sometimes within days of each other. Steam, as well as YouTube, provide you with lots of footage of the game and how it is to be played. At the moment, the latest released game update is version 0.6.8E. The game can be purchased and downloaded through the STEAM site: http://store.steampowered.com/app/461430/EmergeNYC/. If you're not already familiar with the game, you can learn more about it here as well: https://emerge-nyc.com/forum/index.php (although "currently offline for maintenance") and here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/445211119186559/. Although purchasing the game now, would cost you about € 35,00, on several occasions however, the game was offered with a significant discount; so, if you could stand the wait... Okay guys, I hope you can appreciate the information I just gave you. Cheers!! Robert. ;-)

Thanks! ? Cheers!! Robert.

@ Gabriel Evans / Johnny BNL, Hi, For the record, the further development of the Dutch Mod, also known as The Netherlands Mod (TNM), it is experiencing a bit of a hard time now. Should you be willing to read my earlier posts, maybe you've even done so already, than you would know that at the moment there is only Ben12 working on TNM as we speak. The only problem is, he is doing it in his spare time next to his studies. Also, he is unfortunately not as familiar with the modding process as FrozenOne and ItsLeandro were at the time, but he sure as hell is trying to get the job done. FrozenOne was the creator of the mod in the first place and when he stopped, for personal reasons, ItsLeandro took over TNM's further development. Now that ItsLeandro stopped modding TNM as well, Ben12 "reported in" to take over, but it's giving him a hard time. That's why I tried desperately, on several occasions, by calling out on our forum here, to find new modders who would like to help out in the further development of TNM. I myself am not a modder; I'm standing on the side line and I'm only giving tips, suggestions and comment to the modders on TNM's modding development. I could do so because I have been a Dutch ambulance driver for some time, which was good enough reason for all of the TNM modders, to accept my comments that I brought in with respect to their work; not as "plain orders". Thanks to the fact that the modders and I were able to work as a team, and my comments, tips and suggestions were well appreciated by the modders, we all brought TNM to where it is now. However, I am now familiar with the fact that the release of EM5's latest patches 4.0.1 and 4.1.0 are giving problems for playing TNM. I hope Ben12 will be able to sort things out. But, if any of you guys are familiar with modding and want to help out, or even know somebody for that matter, who would be perfectly capable for the job and willing to join in, please get in touch with me. Cheers!! Robert.

Great! Thanks!

Hi guys, For those of you who play EM5 and showed themselves having modding experience making their own EM5-mods at home, and think they can- and want to do better on a more larger scale, I would like to ask you to consider joining and participating the further development of The Netherlands Mod (TNM); AKA "The Dutch Mod". We now only have Ben12 working on the Mod, but he told me he surely could use some extra hands. A few months ago, I launched another "cry for help" witch resulted in a reaction of only two persons, telling they were experienced in modding EM-5. One of them has offered his help, but only after finishing his own personal project first (so, I don't know how much time this will take), and the other one I lost contact with after I sent him a PM - that is, according to the mailbox of our forum, he neither read this mail nor responded to it. So I do hope, referring to his most enthusiastic response at first, he is still all right; but I must admit: if not worried, I am confused. If you ARE interested, please read my earlier post about TNM: http://www.emergency-planet.com/topic/22071-again-modding-em5-dutch-mod-has-stopped-anyone-interested-in-please-taking-over/ Just today, the newest patch for modding EM-5/2016/2017 games (patch number: 4.01) was released on the Emergency Game site https://www.world-of-emergency.com/. The specifics about the patch can be seen here: https://www.world-of-emergency.com/news/2017-10-20/65-patch_4_0_1_out_on_pc and the download can take place from either the website http://world-of-emergency.com/patch or through the Steam website http://store.steampowered.com/app/524110/Emergency_2017/. I am NOT a modder myself, but if YOU are one, love to play the EM-5/2016/2017 games, maybe even being triggered again by this patch update, convinced of your knowledge and experience in EM-5/2016/2017 modding at home, willing to grow into something bigger or maybe even considering some time to participate in the further development of an already existing mod , than please get in touch with me through the forum or, if so wished, you can also do so through PM. Although I am, you don't need to be Dutch. Hope to hear from you soon. Cheers!! Robert.

Hey Hash, Again, I'm trying to get in touch with you through the forum, reminding you that you still didn't respond to my PM on October 6, nor on my reminder of the PM on October 13, after your offer to help us work on the further development on the modding of The Netherlands Mod (TNM). The "Message box", containing my PM's I sent you, to be activated at the top left corner, is telling me that you still didn't even read them, or weren't able to. I don't know the reason for this; but off course, you also don't need to tell anybody as your reasons can easily be most personal. Then again, referring to the tone of your enthusiastic response to my "cry for help" on September 30, it makes me a bit confused that I'm not hearing from you anymore. I do hope, you're still okay and in good health! Should you be able again to read this message and still be willing to join in - or not, please send me a reply. Hope to hear from you real soon. Cheers!! ? Robert ?

I'm afraid you have to ask that to real modders. As you know, I'm not. Maybe get in touch with Ben12? Cheers!! Robert.

Hey Chad, I just watched your footage and it looks great. There is only one thing I would like you to make aware of. Around the Ambulance you've made a "blue glance" turning around the ambulance. You should consider that to have that removed, since that glance in real life is only to be created with "real blue turning lights" - Our Dutch emergency vehicles used to have them but now they all have blue "flashing lights". So, the ambulance should only spread the same blue glance of the flashing lights just as you did with the police vehicles. BTW, I understand your reluctance for joining our group, but it's not that scary or pushing as you probably might think it is. If it's alright with you, I'd like to get back to you on that in a PM. The only problem now, is that the site is apparently under construction so PM is not working yet properly. Please give me some time. Cheers!! Robert.

I think it's best to package it with "WinRar". As soon as you've downloaded and installed "WinRar" on your computer (a free version will do), right click on the map which contains the complete contents of the map (e.g. "Dutch Mod") you're willing to prepare for package and download. Then the mouse menu will offer you to let "WinRar" create a RAR file with the name of the map of your choice. Then, in this example, the file "Dutch Mod.rar" will be created and ready for you to be uploaded to the forum. There the players should be able to download your file and have it installed. Cheers!! Robert.

Hey Chad, Without seeing your update yet, Ben12 thinks you're joining in is great! He tried to get in touch with you last night, but the site was down. The site is back on air again and received a facelift. Maybe you could reach out to him as well. As soon as I've seen your video I'll contact you through a PM. Afterwards I would like to receive your personal e-mail address so communicating would go much faster. But I'll tell you all about it. Cheers!! ? Robert. ?

Hi, Reading your post makes me smile. I really am interested in your modding results to look at and to comment on. As you probably know, reading all my forum posts, I think it is fair to say that I consider myself being the stimulator on our forum to find and urge new moderators to keep on developing our Dutch mod; simply, because it's a great mod and the first and only active EM5 mod. For the third time now, I found new modders to continue with its development (2 times a Dutch modder and at the moment an American modder: "Ben12"). A few days ago a second American modder offered his services to help out with Ben12's further development on The Netherlands Mod (TNM), but sadly, until now he hadn't yet replied to the PM I sent him last Friday. As a matter of fact, Ben12 could use all the help he could get because his school studies also take a lot of his time. I'm not a modder myself as I explained several times on the forum earlier. In the Netherlands, I worked as an ambulance driver for some time. So, therefor, I became familiar with the work and procedures of the Dutch EMS, Police and Fire Department, as well as their appearance in the field. Meaning: the colors, striping, emergency lights, numbers and texting of our Dutch Emergency vehicles and "Life Liners" (= EMS Helicopters), the looks of the uniforms of the Dutch first responders, Fire Fighters, Policemen and "Life Liner" personnel, etc. etc. I offered myself as an advisor to the Dutch mod builders. We became a team and made the Dutch mod to what it is today! And, as I assume you are now also familiar with the looks and feel of TNM, you know where we stand and I am not ashamed to tell you that we could really use your help with the further development of TNM. So, whatever improvements you made on the models, you must understand it must be "in line" with our real-life Dutch Emergency vehicles. No offense, but using red and blue lights and American whaling sounds for sirens wouldn't be realistic for TNM. But maybe you already figured that out through YouTube footage. Should you still be able and willing to also work on TNM, I will send you a PM for further agreements to be made. I also would like to ask you now to post your further comments regarding TNM here: http://www.emergency-planet.com/topic/21039-bens-mods-new-dutch-mod-betterem5-american-mod/?page=2#comment-320478 I will inform Ben12 about your post. I'm sure we'll all get along fine. Mind you: I'm only an advisor to you mod builders and certainly not in charge or "playing boss" for that matter. BTW: What is your first name? Hope to hear from you soon - and please upload us your work. Cheers!! ? Robert. ?
