What we're building
The pillars shaping the platform — what's shipped today and what's coming next.
Beyond classic DarkRP
Stabilize the gamemode, fix bugs, and stack new features so it goes further than the DarkRP you know.
One identity, every server
Sign in once with Steam — your money, progress, inventory and stats follow you across every Emrald community.
Creator-first panel
Spin up servers, tune variables, permissions, groups and addons from the browser. Zero code, full control.
Modular addons
Install community-built addons by their sbox.game ident — jobs packs, weapons, mini-games. Plug and play, per environment.
Live in-game editor
Edit your server's content from inside the game — props, jobs, balance, rules — without leaving play. Coming next.
Built on s&box
Native Source 2 — modern rendering, sharp networking, the foundation your community deserves.
ROADMAP
What's next
Stepping stones for Emrald DarkRP — transparent, ordered by priority.
DONEShipped
Hand the gamemode to Creators
The creator panel is live — projects, environments, servers, variables, permissions, groups, addons. Spin up a server and customize the gamemode without writing a line of code.
NOWIn progress
Open the SDK to the community
Ship the addon SDK and the documentation that goes with it — so creators can build and publish their own jobs, weapons, mini-games and entire extensions on top of the gamemode.
NEXTPlanned
In-game map editor
Edit your map live from inside the game — drop doors, ATMs, NPCs, spawn zones and props wherever you want. Build the roleplay layout your community needs without touching the s&box editor.
LATERPlanned
Expand Emrald to more gamemodes
Beyond DarkRP — bring other popular gamemodes onto the Emrald platform so creators can launch the community they want, on the same foundation.
