Hello Ben, I'm glad that see that it seems that you are the guy who's giving us EM-5 players some hope again. I'll be looking forward to your Mod. BTW: on January 5, I sent you a PM which you haven't replied to yet. Maybe it slipped your mind or you just didn't find the time to respond yet. But would you mind checking your mailbox again? Thank you! Cheers!! Robert.

The NL mod really is/was the best and, as far as I know, the most popular mod as well, It is too bad that FrozenOne stept out of the project, leaving everyone behind with his now completely useless NL mod. It is such a loss; not only for the time and efforts he had put in his wonderful mod in the first place, but certainly for all the players he disappointed with his completely unexpected action as well. Maybe, should "FrozenOne" still visit the forum now and than, and read these comments, I do hope, that he would like to consider to re-activate his project again and/or at least upload "the fix", to let his mod work with EM2016 to make so many players happy again. After all, making the fix shouldn't be much of a problem for him, as he stated earlier on the forum. Just like "ItsLeandro" decently fixed and posted his update/fix last year, just before permanantly leaving the forum as well, His "UUM" is now able to play with EM2016 as well. Let's just hope that FroneOne, in the near future, chooses NOT to become nothing more than "a part of our forum history", but he would still find the urge again to WRITE history on our forum. If not, he's either not doing well at all (considering the reason he gave us for stepping out), or he started living the "Like I care"-attitude... Nevertheless, If anyone would like to make an effort in trying to pick up the peaces to get this NL mod up and running again, or would decide to go for a completely new (American?) mod, please go for it! As for me, I have easy talking, but as I stated here many time before on this forum, I am not a modder at all - to me, modding is just like rocket science. BTW: I'M WISHING EVERY FORUM MEMBER AND THEIR FAMILIES A HEALTHY AND WONDERFUL 2016!! Cheers!! Robert

I think many players do. Should FrozenOne ever get his stuff together again with his eyes brightly facing the future, the way we all hope for, than I hope that he would all cut us some slack and just make and upload "the fix" for his MOD. I find it hard to believe that he would have peace with the feeling to just let the community, and therefor all the fans of his wonderful MOD, hanging there without the possibility to connect his MOD to EM-2016 ever again. Besides, all the time he spent and trouble he went through to give us the MOD in the first place, to see that all go to a waste, I cannot imagine that he could not care less... As I understood his earlier message, FrozenOne is feeling really down at the moment. Hoping that he still visits the forum at times, maybe each of us fans, we should all call out here to FrozenOne, to PLEASE (!) upload us "the fix" for the game. NOT to keep the pressure up, because that's ONE thing he can do without right now, but just to let him know how much we enjoyed playing his MOD and we would love to see that happen again... Cheers!! Robert.

Well, all I can tell you is that FrozenOne-94 had a "break" because of "very personal circumstances" - as he later explained when he returned to the forum... Cheers!! Robert.

WOW, that's harsh! I feel really deeply sorry for you both! It sure as hell is a bummer that you cancelled your work on the Dutch MOD as of now. In time, maybe, JUST maybe, I hope you will be able to pick up the peaces, and consider to start again where you now left off. If not for compleating the MOD as a whole, then hopefully to compleat just "the fix", to give the community the possibillity to play again with your so immense popular MOD. Wishing you all the best!! Cheers!! Robert.

In dutch: Als het spel zich opstart en een map laad krijg ik een foutmelding. Deze foutmelding geeft aan: [2015-11-08 17:00:50][QSF error] Could not find order info 'DCH" [2015-11-08 17:00:53][QSF error] There is no event 'Building_Fire_Injured_Persons_Damage' inside the event pool 'EM5_Simple_Fire_Definitions' [2015-11-08 17:00:53][QSF error] Fatal error in event pool structure, please check the log for more information Dan krijg ik helemaal geen meldingen meer. Kan hier iets aan gedaan worden, want de mod lijkt me geweldig. Christiaan van Veen Please, post you ,essages in English. As I replied on earlier requests with the same questions referring to al kind of error reports with the Dutch MOD, the following: These error reports appear because of the fact that the NL MOD stopped working afther the SixteenTons software update to v2.0.2. Should you read the former messages in this thread, you'll notice that we all are waiting for FrozenOne to have his MOD fixed and make it work with the EM5-update. We just need to be patient... So, just hang-in there! Cheers!! Robert.

It's because of the fact that the NL MOD stopped working after the the release of EM-2016. FrozenOne, the man who created the NL-MOD, is aware of the problem and (as he stated on november 4) he is now working on the problem. http://forum.emergency-planet.com/topic/20184-nl-modification-v20-released-signal-torch-screenshot/page-6 I am positive that you are familiar with the above mentioned link. You will find his respond to this problem at the bottom end of this page. Cheers!! Robert. Posted 04 November 2015 - 07:44 PM

Finally... Thank you for your reply. I knew I wasn't sticking my neck out for keep on telling everyone to keep faith in your upcoming fix. But it sure took me a long breath before the appearance of any promising sign. Speaking for myself now, I hope you can, at least, deliver just the fix in the upcoming week, so we will be able play the game again; I would settle for just that. As for your (MOD) update itself, also considering your personal circomstances, you should just take the time you need. Rome and Cologne weren't built on the same day either, and I know you want your MOD to be only perfect... Cheers!! Robert.

I recently purchased EM-2016. What I CAN say now, is that once you start-up the game, you'll enter the menu where you can choose to play either EM-2016 or EM-5. As I chose EM-5, I noticed that the UUM (singleplayer) works like a charme since it had been recently fixed to work with the SixteenTons software update v2.0.2. I did NOT choose for playing EM-2016 yet, since you have to work yourself first through the level of the "Middle Ages" before arriving in the "here and now". Besides, I am still waiting for the NL MOD to be repaired and made available to work with the new software update as well. This, for the so simple reason that I find that the NL MOD is, in the detail, often so much nicer/better then the original German game. I am definitely not certain about this, but MAYBE one could say, that the UUM should also work inside the 2016 game, since my experience showed me that UUM DID work inside EM-5. Again, EM-5 itself, was started up through the EM-2016 game menu. For what it's worth... Cheers!! Robert.

You're most welcome! It's just what I do: clinging on to my believes (knowing FrozenOne just a tiny little bit more personal) and hoping for the best... And if, releasing these kind of messages to you all, is giving you the same hope as I have, then I'm more than happy. Cheers!! Robert.

I assume that FrozenOne is now working on his MOD again to make it happen, as I cannot imagine that he would allow to let his work just go down the drain after all the trouble he went through to make his MOD working perfectly with EM5 in the first place; just because of "a simple update". Also knowing that his NL MOD is so much appreciated by so many players, I don't think he would ever accept this... And although I do not have any inside information (but I sure wish I did ), I am 100% convinced that in due time he will have his NL MOD working again for both EM-5 as well as for EM-2016. I don't want it to sound too dramatic, but all WE can do is just being patient and hope for his success. Cheers!! Robert.

However, ItsLeandro that reported yesterday that he managed to have his "Unlimited Units Mod" adapted and work again with the v2.0.2 SixteenTons software update (http://forum.emergency-planet.com/topic/19896-unlimited-units-mod/page-2). I installed his update and it worked; although NOT inside the NL MOD unfortunately. To see the UUM-MOD working, I had to deactivate the NL MOD first, for the "simple" fact that the NL MOD has not been adapted yet to the v2.0.2 update. Maybe it's a stupid suggestion, so please don't shoot me over this - like I said many times before: I don't know anything about MODDING, Would it be a good idea to check out your "problems" with ItsLeandro to see how he fixed it? Then again, my suggestion might be like comparing appels and oranges, Nevertheless, I am certain that eventually you'll get the job done. Cheers!! Robert

Great, thank you! Hope to let it combine again soon with the NL MOD. Cheers!! Robert.

Please, post your messages in English. Installing the NL MOD in EMG 2016 is the same way as you probably did in EMG 5. It's just that, since the updates (v2.0.2 now) the MOD does not work anymore in either of the games. You just have to be patient untill FrozenOne fixed the problem,,, Cheers!! Robert

Thank you, but you should compliment FrozenOne... Cheers!! Robert.

Hang in there... Check out the NL MOD of FrozenOne-94, when ready again: (http://forum.emergency-planet.com/topic/20184-nl-modification-v20-released-signal-torch-screenshot/). Although it has a problem now with the new SixteenTons software update (v2.0.1), installed for EM-5 as well as EM-2016, which resulted in the NL MOD not being able to be played anymore in EM-5 and also not to be played in EM-2016 (yet), it is most likely that FrozenOne-94 will deal with this problem. FrozenOne-94 received a lot of positive comment on his NL MOD - which he truly deserved. Once the problem has been taken care of, enjoy! Cheers!! Robert.

I truly hope so. But knowing the enthusiasm that FrozenOne-94 had shown for the making of his (very own) mod this last year, and always trying to perform better, I would be surprised if he wouldn't... We just nee to be patient... Cheers!! Robert.

That's the problem we are all facing. All we can do now is waiting and hoping for FrozenOne-94 to take care of the problem and having his MOD working again under the v2.0.1 update. Cheers!! Robert

Like I said: "I am NOT really certain about this (...)". I only reacted on both prices that were shown on the STEAM website, also trying to point out the 85% discount offer. I didn't do any research for any other (web)stores with their price offers for this game, like you apparently did. So, thank you for that! I am sure that many future buyers will benefit from your input. Cheers!! Robert

Hi guys, As you all may know by now, EMERGENCY-5 has been updated to EMERGENCY-2016 v2.0.1. I had some sincere hesitations about the purchase of EMERGENCY 2016, since the software update inside EM-2016 (v2.0.1) was also released for EMERGENCY-5, and I was reading on the forum at the same time that our Dutch MOD stopped working after the update was installed. But, as I purchased EM-5 earlier this year through STEAM, I could not prevent to have the update installed since STEAM does this automatically for you - no queastions asked! So, there it was, and there was nothing more left for me to do then to decide to purchase EM-2016 as well (through STEAM), while hoping that the installation of EM-2016 would fix the problem with our wunderful Dutch Mod. Well, too bad - it did not. Still, I am convinced (as I stated yesterday on our forum) that FrozenOne-94 will fix this problem. So, for now, not being able to play the Dutch MOD anymore, I comfort myself with the thought that EM-2016 might bring me one or two extra games although I know that (with the v2.0.1 update) Em-5, as well as EM-2016, bring in the same new very nice gameplay features. Also, when you start up EM-2016, you'll find the menu option to play the EM-5 levels as well. But to be honest, I am NOT convinced (yet) that EM-2016 really is a "must have" to keep on playing with EM-5. For me, and maybe for most of us, let's just wait for the "MOD fix" that FrozenOne-94 should provide, and sincerely hope that he is able to make us all very happy in the very near future. That being said, I agree with you all, that this update should have been for free. Should you still consider to buy EM-2016 after all, I do know that STEAM allows you to buy this game now with a shaming 10% discount http://store.steampo...tab=NewReleases on its original price (€ 39.99): € 35.99. Although, I am NOT really certain about this, I DO am afraid that the second discount offer is only for those who purchased EM5 through STEAM earlier this year. So now, STEAM also offers its EM5 customers a 85% discount http://store.steampo...com/app/404920/ on its original price. EM2016 would then "only" cost you: € 5.99. Be advised however: the 85% discount offer only stands for the next 22 hours. All this, for what its worth... Cheers!! Robert

Thank you Rivan, the message showed already on my screen as well. So, apparently everything turned out OK... Cheers!! Robert.

As I am sure that the game developers won't fix this problem: "Once the rockets go up, who cares where they come down... - that's not my department." But, I am just as certain that FrozenOne-94 will deal with it. Let's just hope that we'll hear from him again shortly! Cheers!! Robert.

Also, as I purchased the game through STEAM, is anyone already familiar with this very same update through STEAM? Although STEAM mentioned the update on its site http://steamcommunity.com/games/328140/announcements/detail/89302831101200063, I have not been able to find and download the update. So, if anyone could advise me in this matter, I would be most grateful. As I remember with earlier Steam updates for this game, STEAM had these updates installed automatically - and when it happend I was always able to watch the process. And so far, none of that happened... I hope to hear from you soon. Cheers!! Robert.
