Merry Christmas & Happy New Year So guys it is that time of year again, another year is nearly done and a new one on the horizon. The Essex mod team would like to wish everyone a very merry Christmas and a happy new year we also wish to thank everyone for the continued support and interest everyone shows towards this project, it's always encouraging to receive positive feedback and is great for the teams moral. We spend countless hours working on this mod all for free, with our aim to make the best/most immersive UK mod ever for the Emergence series. As each month goes past we get a little closer towards a release I'd like to think we will be able to release something within the next 12 months with or without a custom map. It's now time for our latest dev update I have prepared a large collection of photos showcasing the last few weeks work which includes a lot of new map assets which populate an area on the map called the Cedar Park Trading Estate, here local residents + builders will be able spend their money at various D.I.Y stores, there is also a telecoms site which will have some custom vans/trucks but are unable to feature in this update. Next Cedar park is a road called Bentall's Close which features a new build block of flats, decorating center and a builders merchants. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgfaBjtWX8w I hope you guys enjoy these pictures as you'll see pretty much all the objects are built from scratch specifically designed for Emergency 5 I'm sure you'll appreciate the amount of time, effort and research that has gone into it. If you'd like to support this project you can donate to the team here https://ko-fi.com/essexmodteam Well guys that is it from us, we will be back in 2024 with another productive year planned Merry Christmas & Happy New Year Essex Mod Development Team

You can download the tool from the new emergency forums https://em-hub.de/filebase/file/177-free-camera-tool/

It was quite a shock for myself and the team to read that the German forum has closed down today, it is a first for the community and we are saddened by the news The only good bit of news from that post is that their discord will still remain open. That said Myself and the team have put an huge amount of effort into building the Essex mod for Emergency 5 since that time over a year ago now I've managed to assemble a really talented team and have made some great friendships from people across various countries, this to me is what modding should be about, it is an enjoyable experience for us and a hobby we pour endless hours into. We have no plans on giving up what we started and shall continue to update the page on emp and on our own discord channel

Awesome work Beaverfield team, looking forward to release

Yes indeed there is! So We've been back from our summer break for a month or so now and have got back into the swing of things and it is now time to share with you what we have been working on firstly we've been putting a lot more effort into map making and understanding on how best to construct our environment models, we have also re designed the way we create our roads, opting for road markings as alpha textures instead of directly on the road model texture. This will allow the user a lot more freedom should they want to build their own map, they can simply place a road down and then add the required road markings to it as desired. In these pictures you can see our new road models/alphas and new buildings of course. For those who follow us on our discord page you will know that the much anticipated update on our Scania is now ready to showcase, so after an unholy amount of work on this model we are now at a place where we are happy to show it off, due to the complex geometry of the cab and all the other bits that have been need to make up it's prefab we are proud to showcase it as our best piece of work to date and hope it won't disappoint you Scania lovers our there An Example of the scania can be found here for comparison, still a few tweaks to do https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ff2VGbM-qYA That is it from us today guys we hope you enjoyed the update, stay tuned for me Essex Mod Development Team

If I recall correctly it is left control (press once or twice I can't remember) then use Q and E to rotate

Ludenscheid and Wuppertal are the main mods for Emergency 5 at the minute. Beaverfield is a US mod currently in development along with the Essex mod witch is the first UK mod.

I believe this has to be done manually if your playing the game without mods, however some mods like Ludenscheid have included this in their mod.

Hi, No updates yet we've been having a summer break work is going to resume shortly though

Hey guys! Just a quick update from the team we wish to share the latest images on the Scania P280 with the Angloco body More to come soon Thanks Essex Mod Development Team

Hello all, It's time for another developer update from the team. First of all I need to inform you of some rather big changes witch have happened within the Essex mod as most of you will know we was planning to use Ludenscheid a base to build Essex mod upon but after much discussion within the team we have come to a conclusion that we feel the best course of action for the mod is to step away from Ludenscheid and switch to Wuppertal. This is mostly to allow our coders/scripters the freedom and creativity to produce their best work, it also means we can make our work open source allowing others to get into modding Emergency 5 and hopefully more UK mods. This is not a dig at Ludenscheid we greatly appreciate their work and was grateful that they gave us the opportunity in the first place and we wish them the best for the future Over the last month or so we've been switching our LDS build to Wuppertal and have managed to keep most of our work without to much set backs. With that said we can take a look at what else we have been working on our Coders KillerConsti and Lennard have been busy developing some new bits for us and we'd like to share some work in progress clips of them. First off we have a pull over/chase button where the player will be able to pull over a selected vehicle, we are currently looking on how best to expand this once the vehicles has been pulled over, we will have more on this as it develops Next is a new script that once a player has arrested a person you will need another policeman to search the individual before placing him in a car/van for transportation back to station. We have also added the same water logic system witch can be found in wuppertal/lds to our Dennis fire engine with animated lockers ( UK fireman personnel textures coming soon ) Because of the new scripts we have planned/ in progress we are looking for someone who would be able to assist us in making some 2D UI icons If this would suit your talents please contact me The Nissan Navara HART IRU witch we showed off a little while ago has received some more updates including the Whelen liberty lightbar witch was kindly donated to us from Em4 modder V, The back has also been kitted out with medical equipment and is ready for frontline service Lastly as you know we try our best to make this mod as high quality as possible and to be the best UK mod every for any emergency game, Because of this we felt our existing Scania model was not up to scratch especially with it making up the bulk of Essex's fire service. So Fishboe has been busy working on a new model witch is shaping up very nicely and is a big improvement on the existing model, again more on this as it develops Old Model: New Model Stay tuned for more Essex Mod Development Team
