[marble chasm]

HD BeamNG mirrors when

[signal lotus]

Real

8k mirrors

10 faces per palm

[marble chasm]

😎

[signal lotus]

1.5 details

9999999 drawing distance

[marble chasm]

yes

[signal lotus]

That would be interesting

[marble chasm]

(and heavy on performance)

[signal lotus]

But why would we need 10 faces per palm if we would play with 8k mirrors in 5 fps lol

[signal lotus]

Yeah

[marble chasm]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

quick question regarding mod modeling:
wouldn't it be simpler to import Forza Horizon/Assetto Corsa car models into BeamNG?

[signal lotus]

They are way too high poly

[zenith cloud]

i love huracan st evo 🥰

[marble chasm]

what about golf balls

[signal lotus]

So most meshslapers use gta sa models

[signal lotus]

Idk

[marble chasm]

🗿

[signal lotus]

You can make driveable everything

i did a driveable inverted harvester on pigeon jbeam

[marble chasm]

[nimble valley]

what is the best looking mod currently for beamng?

i mean car mod

i guess bugatti is now up there

[royal coral]

ibishu reflex

[marble chasm]

play around in #screenshots and see what you like, maybe ask someone for the mod they posted

[wicked egret]

The most recent AE86 patch looks great

Though the interior is a wee bit rough

[nimble valley]

i need to get to downloading the hotfix

lol i downloaded the one on 1st page lol

[wicked egret]

Delete the old one before you do so and clear cache first

[nimble valley]

yea

[wicked egret]

[nimble valley]

thanks

[marble chasm]

I personally believe the Bugatti Chiron is awesome, but for some it could be 'too much' of some aspects

[frozen harbor]

dfa pack my beloved

[nimble valley]

yea true

perhaps a poll on the forums would have been better lol

[bleak tusk]

Procyon Centauri

[wicked egret]

I just base it on accuracy

[blazing path]

how much it cost if someone can make f1 2022 car 3d model for me?

[scenic jay]

is it possible to do like a split screen thing seeing different angles of a car

like orbit and 1st person

[latent ivy]

how do i add in the als system

[prime palm]

Idk

There are far too many mods
Most being on par with eachother

Test a bunch of mods
Use a map with good lighting to bring out the best of said mod
And you can determine whether or not the mod looks good 👍

[fallen estuary]

you can probably find someone online to commision an f1 car

[marble chasm]

or send it as an idea on the forums

[copper thistle]

I was making a sand jumper with my D-Series and I just realised how dull the interiors are. Is there any racing interior mod for the D-series?

[knotty minnow]

Not just the D-series but any vehicles tbh. Is there any good interior mod?

[marble chasm]

[latent ivy]

completely unedited sbr4 + scintilla jbeams

[wild grotto]

[latent ivy]

rawbeans meshslaps, also it was a typo lol my bad

[wild grotto]

that reminds me of yolobet

[latent ivy]

ah yes yolobet

[wild grotto]

and net_nuka

[amber palm]

comparing rawbeans to kenemation is litterly an insult to kene lmao
both make garbage mods but one makes better ones than the other

[wild grotto]

the only mods i would waste money on were lucasbe’s

yeah but the signia is not released yet

if the scout releases at the end of 2022 i will instantly buy it

[acoustic nymph]

They could literally add the scout in 0.27 and I would even consider the thought it wasn't by an official developer

[ashen flame]

i'd waste all my money on those mods

[wild grotto]

the scout is sooooooo fokin beautiful

[ashen flame]

i burnt my money on the Picnic, forgot about it :(

[wild grotto]

you need to play more with it

[wild grotto]

should i buy it?

[ashen flame]

thing is i've been modding for so long i barely touch the other cars for fun

[wild grotto]

oof

[stable delta]

do i create maps using world editor or blender?

like heightmaps

[wild grotto]

blender

[stable delta]

so if i want to make a irl based place i can just put a heightmap into blender and it will make the terrain?

[wild grotto]

no

[acoustic nymph]

Is there any mods that are able to replace the navigation screen with a reverse screen when reversing?

[glacial sequoia]

Could anyone make a AWD mod for the Ibishu 200bx? Need it for my rally car pls!

[lofty narwhal]

Heyo, small question, 3 of the mods I downloaded seem to be corrupted (RS7, S2K and ETK widebody), does anyone know how to make them work ?

[celest ravine]

Anyone know where O can get the Chiron mod

The one with Andrew tates BUGA’I

[zenith cloud]

mmmmmmirrrorr

[signal lotus]

You are doing a great work!
I think the mirror could be a little more smooth, rest is fine

[barren zodiac]

Suzuki cappuccino

[signal lotus]

Its honda beat

[barren zodiac]

Oh lol

[zenith cloud]

yeah the mirror part of the mirror is rough asf

had to turn up roughness so you could see the true horror 💀

[signal lotus]

Oh lol

[zenith cloud]

all made taillight glass and the holes

[signal lotus]

Looks good

[zenith cloud]

💀

[signal lotus]

I wouldnt model something like that myself

[ashen flame]

what colour is your Honda Beat

[signal lotus]

Red

[zenith cloud]

yellow (hot)

[zenith cloud]

why

[signal lotus]

no its green

[signal lotus]

I have no skills

Teoretically, the car is yellow-greenish and taillights are black tinted

[zenith cloud]

relatable

[signal lotus]

from this what i see

[zenith cloud]

nah its just yellow

[signal lotus]

why i see green

e

Soobie daltonist mode

Just kidding

thats well option in my phone to see like daltonist

[zenith cloud]

looks quite yellow to me lol

[signal lotus]

Yeah that is lol

[lofty narwhal]

Does anyone know ?

[zenith cloud]

mmmmymmyyerlow

[signal lotus]

Lol

[zenith cloud]

omg gay phone 😱

[signal lotus]

Skala szarości means gray scale

[signal lotus]

Lmao

[amber palm]

average western polish phone

[signal lotus]

Lmao

[amber palm]

(im from lubuskie and i can confirm this)

[signal lotus]

And a small button that i very often click accidentally changes things to daltonist things

[amber palm]

are you colourblind?

[signal lotus]

Im from silesia (węgiel) and can confirm

[signal lotus]

I got info i see colors a little wrong, not daltonist but if something is for example light red i see it little darker than it is

[amber palm]

anyways this is modding discussion not general chat

[signal lotus]

yeah right

[celest ravine]

Azu

Wheee do I get the Chiron mod

[latent ivy]

Ibishu Assault

[zenith cloud]

was ibishu melody before, now im conflicted 😂

ibishu batter 😳

ibishu rythm? 🤔

[balmy scroll]

ibishu miracle

[zenith cloud]

doesnt really relate to beat though

im more looking for synonyms for beat/words with a very similar meaning

[manic sphinx]

beautiful

[nimble valley]

why does engine respond more nicely with dynamic friction set to zero?

i have tried this 3 times now back and forth and definitely feels more natural with zero

wondering if someone else noticed same

[hazy bone]

any good mods for german cars?

[balmy scroll]

[celest ravine]

Eh I found it

I saw it in neilogicals vid

What a mod

Innocent joker improved it a ton

[wicked egret]

any good rotary mods?

Like I know that there is the FD3S, I already have that.

Doesn't have to be a car it can be a parts mod too.

[balmy scroll]

Satsuma 210, it doesnt have pbr tho

It has a rotary engine

[wicked egret]

ok

Wasn't someone making a 13b swap for the scintilla

I saw they had it modeled

It just needs texturing from what I saw

And probably coding too

[flat stirrup]

@maiden walrus The Scintilla Liberty parts break the textures on ETK-K Series and ETK 800 series seats.

[zenith cloud]

really nice!! lookin sharp :)

[zenith cloud]

ælol i should make a ricer config

[zenith cloud]

how do i fix this garbage shading near the side duct where the door meets the unibody?

annoying asf

@latent ivy

pls tech support 🙏

[signal lotus]

Try new normals

Idk

[proven barn]

Recalculate normals

[zenith cloud]

didnt work

[proven barn]

show polyflow

[proven barn]

tf is happening here

also try adding this here and see how that affects things

[zenith cloud]

stuff

[proven barn]

ic

[zenith cloud]

no difference

[proven barn]

i'd suggest restructuring the polyflow a tad here like so (remove the red squiggled edges and X'd out verticies, create the green edge)

so it ends up like so

not 100% sure if the bottom right edge circled should exist cause the pic is zoomed in and idk where this goes

[proven barn]

you may also need to flip the normals here

hmm, try flipping the normals

it just looks like borked normals rather than botched polyflow making blender angry

[neon magnet]

Check if they need flipping w matcap

[proven barn]

so if both flipping normals and inverting faces doesn't work i'll be quite confused

ah good idea yeah

[neon magnet]

I totally have never used that for that exact purpose

[zenith cloud]

but its facing the right way

[neon magnet]

Sad

Good luck

[zenith cloud]

r.i.p.

[neon magnet]

U followed their advice right

[zenith cloud]

yeah

[neon magnet]

I would give tips but idk how to describe it

[proven barn]

obv the green edge going off into space goes to the vertex that is hidden behind the fender

[neon magnet]

More people have the thumbs up to your advice than my render

[zenith cloud]

like this?

[zenith cloud]

lol rip

[neon magnet]

Then connect the unconnected ones

[neon magnet]

I see their concern, not the first time the model was called a lincoln

I just forgot it was based off of a cedric

I'll make it eventually

[proven barn]

it's a sick render honestly, I just don't think that the harsh angles of the c pillar match the rest of the design XD

[neon magnet]

Got it

[proven barn]

nothing against the model btw it looks fantastic from a modeling perspective too 😄

[neon magnet]

Thank you

Btw my 2nd beamng related model

From the bolide

[zenith cloud]

if i mark the last edge sharp it makes the shading a little better but it still looks ass and makes the part where it reaches the hole weird asf

and i still have this thing

[leaden pine]

have you tried increasing the smooth level or whatever is it called

[neon magnet]

Should be 30-50 imo

Maybe weighted normals if u havent

Doubt it will solve it

[zenith cloud]

i always have it at 50

[leaden pine]

weird, are you sure the verts are merged?

[leaden pine]

🗿

[neon magnet]

Try to decrease the angle ig

I know nothing about blender cough dont go to showcase your mods

[zenith cloud]

i tried once making them literally the exact 100% same angle and it basically looked the exact same

[neon magnet]

Hmm

[zenith cloud]

nah thats hot

[neon magnet]

Just live w it for now, do the other parts if u want to

[zenith cloud]

true

[proven barn]

would you mind sending me the blend file so I could tool around with it and try to figure out what's wrong?

[manic sphinx]

you may have a duplicated vertex somewhere

[proven barn]

that's likely it

[zenith cloud]

tried that but they are all connected

also made bumpers 3d

[manic sphinx]

fixed

duped vertex as i said

[zenith cloud]

tysm

works but for some reason breaks when i do average face area

[wooden bolt]

I hope this thing will atleast make it to beam and get 4 wheels

[proven barn]

where was the duped vertex? I somehow couldn't find one

[stiff lark]

I hope everything made into beam and get everything

[manic sphinx]

and sorry it was extruded*

[proven barn]

ah makes sense

[zenith cloud]

same

[wooden bolt]

trying to model cappucino

[zenith cloud]

so so incredibly based

nooo

free my man driftbox 😔

also lost the purple role

[wooden bolt]

I'm back

I was typing so fast that i thought I'm on my private server lol
and I said "s word"

that's my second automoderator warn 💀
(first one was caused by bad word in gif link)

anyway, rear glass polyflow is really bad
to much poly on bottom

[wooden bolt]

I am stupid and decided to remake it before
I think it's still bad

[zenith cloud]

mmmlicens plat holdter

~160 tris

[red belfry]

what apps do you use i want to make my own car but dont know how to start

[wild grotto]

blende

[red belfry]

thnx lad

[red basin]

hope fix 3d model

[zenith cloud]

just blender

[wooden bolt]

is there any shortcut for making vertices straight?

[zenith cloud]

select all of them

chose the axis you want them to be straight on (x/y/z)

hit s
then hit 0

and then just enter

[wooden bolt]

thanks!

[manic sphinx]

but if you want want to align them by some other vertex use 3d cursor

[zenith cloud]

just use active element, select the other vertex and do the same

(key to bring this menu up is period)

[manic sphinx]

i use shift+s then choose the 2nd option

[zenith cloud]

that moves them on all axis

for that i still think its faster to just hit s, 0, enter

[manic sphinx]

youre doing it wrong then

[zenith cloud]

minier miata moment

add clearcoat to red material!!11! 😡 😡 💢 💢

just set it to 2 or something

[zenith cloud]

1000x better

[wooden bolt]

idk if it's also the right way to make side of the car, I watched one GTA V car modelling tutorial and I wanted to try that way

[zenith cloud]

just set up blueprints

(shift+a,image,background)

[wooden bolt]

I mean, I was always doing it by placing nodes and just "filling them"
Guy from tutorial made it other way

[zenith cloud]

i just extrude

placing nodes and filling is also a valid method though

[proven barn]

Are you gonna do a bake ?

[zenith cloud]

mmmdirty plas tic

[zenith cloud]

probably eventually

[proven barn]

nice nice

ooh nice plastic btw

[zenith cloud]

crusty ahh

bout dirty as hell

[proven barn]

ery nice

noise node i assume?

[zenith cloud]

yes

noise + mix into the roughness

going to do something similar for the engine i think

they tend to be covered in grease

[proven barn]

dope

[wooden bolt]

finished model first, then move to substance painter

[zenith cloud]

nah i like making it look nice while i work

[proven barn]

substance painter requires a subscription now tho :\

the free trial glitch is gone

[zenith cloud]

L

[wooden bolt]

remade rear side

now I can extend it to doors

[fading gust]

anybody elses deo volente spec vertex not starting?

rpm doesn't even increase, stays at 0

[ashen flame]

the student trial?

[proven barn]

that whole system is gone

you can get a normal free trial tho

that would require constantly making new adobe accounts every month tho

[ashen flame]

damn

[wooden bolt]

it's probably the worst model ever

How does one install the urbanlore vehicle pack? It's been giving me grief with vehicles not showing in the selector

[wooden bolt]

what happened to brickolo?

I'm confused as well
I can't even imagine brickolo doing something bad on forums

[balmy scroll]

he got banned for having another account on the same ip, except that wasnt his

[wicked egret]

rip

[wooden bolt]

bruh

if he didn't done anything stupid with alt, it's one of the most stupid ban reasons I ever seen
but rules are rules

[proven barn]

the main thing is it wasn't his alt, it was apparently a friends account that he made while they were both connected to the same network.

[wooden bolt]

even if it would be his account, I don't see any sense in giving ban if he didn't done anything stupid with it, that's why warns exist

[narrow onyx]

I don’t wanna discuss it on beam discord cause mods might get angry or smth, but the story is essentially what Bruhh and Acrain said. one thing to keep in mind though is the “alt” did break forum rules which is what made me suspected

I’m working on appealing, but after I gave proof and explained everything they hadn’t replied

I’m working on a discord server to post updates on my silvia for the time being, and that’ll have a more detailed explanation with proof against the ban

[verbal fog]

@ashen flame no offense but this looks like a fixture from automation

looks good tho

[ashen flame]

not my portion of the model

[verbal fog]

fair

[ashen flame]

besides tbh the c series demotivated me so much at one point

People have stupidly high expectations

[verbal fog]

and they are really damn rude when it doesnt live up to their expectations

[ashen flame]

Ever since lucasbe mods and the mistral were top notch

all I want to say is “where is your mods”

[verbal fog]

ima start using that as my default response lol

"i'd like to see you do better" is another good response

[ashen flame]

what section is your mod

unfortunately i actually don’t play such responses on the repo

[verbal fog]

i just mostly make the exterior of a model, then i start something else lol

ive never actually made a mod

[ashen flame]

most of the time it’s an ignore or a formal response

but yeah I have no plans on working on the c series anytime soon

mainly because the average joe nowadays has developer quality levels of expectations

[verbal fog]

thats mainly why i dont ever have the motivation to finish a model

cuz some kid is going to say it looks bad

and they are gunna get everyone else to agree with them

[ashen flame]

working on the several launch patches caused too much motivational loss

[sweet olive]

@hybrid bear
its only because your viewing it from an angle so it looks more random, from a straight rear view you can see its in evenly spaces groups

[verbal fog]

the design of that light makes no sense to me tbh

just tell him “where’s your models

quite a late response tho

[ashen flame]

i literally can’t without them going “what the hell”

and them going batsht for the school period

assetto corsa community

probably worse

[proven barn]

I swear the people who have no involvement in mod making or development are always the loudest.

The less experience the more vocal I guess

I try to only give my opinion when I think it could actually be helpful in some way, and always compliment any new development coming out in the hopes that it motivates the individual

[ashen flame]

there’s no rain mod

[hushed storm]

the realization that my normal map is 170mb

[verbal fog]

driving in the rain irl is so damn easy lol

[proven barn]

I mean if you have a high hp front wheel drive or rear wheel drive car on poor tires it’s more difficult

[ashen flame]

that’s because you drive an XB

[verbal fog]

ive driven other cars in the wet lol

[ashen flame]

my car is an 2023 Lega

Legs LWB Male edition

[verbal fog]

what year are your legs

[ashen flame]

mine are the 2023 model year

the facelift

[proven barn]

Why is it 8k

[ashen flame]

it’s longer

[verbal fog]

nice, did you just replace it with the same spec that you had before or did you upgrade to a higher trim

[proven barn]

Man you must have been waiting a long time, leg production is backed up for years

[ashen flame]

i upgraded the legs

i can now run like usain bolt

i can now get women

@latent ivy @verbal fog start taking notes

i wouldn’t take men

woman or nothing

after hustlers I have a Bugatti and several women

[leaden wing]

what colour is your Bugatti

[ashen flame]

Mine is in orange

[verbal fog]

and now you are 15 million in debt

[ashen flame]

the irs took my Bugatti

oh there goes my 57 maybachs

[proven barn]

why would you need to downscale a bake

you can just export it at the res you want initially at max quality

[leaden wing]

the top g🥶👌

[ashen flame]

mr bath what colour is your Bugatti

the irs needs to know

[hushed storm]

supersampling i suppose

my thinking was id bundle the 8k textures and the customer could downscale as needed

but i can just give them the substance source file

but what if they dont have substance

okay i baked 8k so that the customer can get the highest quality texture possible to downsample it

for their purposes

it isnt

im going to sell it as a generic game ready 3d asset

and ill run 8k textures on the mod on my end

cause gawd damn the quality

[mystic kestrel]

They can downscale to whatever reso they need...

[polar cedar]

make 16k texture for beam to future proof it

[hushed storm]

exactly

[ashen flame]

Rookie. 40k texture

[mystic kestrel]

Wouldnt mind seeing an absolutely absurd car just to see how well it looked in the game engine. No optimization

[hushed storm]

beamng is sadly lacking a lot of modern lighting stuff

the pbr shaders were a massive step up

[mystic kestrel]

For sure

[hushed storm]

but its still not exactly bleeding edge

[neon magnet]

subsurf

[mystic kestrel]

Nope, but still looks good

[hushed storm]

i think the biggest 2 things id like to see improved are shadows and weather effects

and fix night time lighting

[mystic kestrel]

Honestly lighting is almost the only restraint now. People have made really good screenshots just by grading

[hushed storm]

the shadows can look really bad

[mystic kestrel]

Time for RT lol

[hushed storm]

i feel like i recall one of the beam devs talking about non-rt based global illumination on twitter...

thatd be absolutely sick

[mystic kestrel]

RT is definitely not the way to go for beamng

So that would be dope

[mystic kestrel]

Only thing actually would be reflections. Not world reflections but just the car reflecting itself. Probably not that noticeable, but it would help

[hushed storm]

oh yeah

[polar cedar]

self reflections?

[hushed storm]

even like some sort of screen space reflections would do a lot

[neon magnet]

rip fps

[mystic kestrel]

Yea, mirrors, wings etc. Reflecting back on the body

[hushed storm]

exhaust reflecting the bumper that kind of thing

[mystic kestrel]

yes

[polar cedar]

that would be great yeah

[hushed storm]

reflections are such a big part of what make cars look great so rt or even screen space reflections would be a natural fit

[mystic kestrel]

Otherwise conventional rendering is fine. Cubemaps look great honestly. And the needed hardware for RT just doesnt make it worth changing over

[modest ginkgo]

my blender crashes when opening vehicle .dae files. any idea why?

[verbal fog]

import them to blender instead of opening them with blender

[modest ginkgo]

how?

[verbal fog]

bruh

[neon magnet]

i totally havent made the same mistake for a year when trying to open dae files

[ashen flame]

I rarely do the opposite lmao

And realising I screwed up

Exporting a dae with the wrong contents

Then realising it’s got nothing in it

[fallen estuary]

rookie, indistinguishable from real life 😈

[misty jay]

This is my fear

Also a question, why does Beam not support packed textures? Like R channel AO G channel roughness B channel metalness, or any other arbitrary pipeline

[latent ivy]

likely related to the game originally not supporting that, so their pipeline is already not doing that

[haughty jewel]

I have never gotten a negative comment for my mods but seeing other people being treated like this just demotivates me more

Why cant people just have lower standards

[misty jay]

It would save masivly on vram usage

[misty jay]

But then again they have other problems

[marble chasm]

Does anybody know any good pre-2000 Volvo mods? (that are released and not WIP)

[marble chasm]

are there ones that are free
that are perhaps free paid? 😏

[neon magnet]

what

[balmy scroll]

is this guy asking for a leaked paid mod

[marble chasm]

no im asking for the same quality but free

||yes but if you do not wish for such form of piracy then no||

Get out of here if you want to beg for paid mods for free

Backwards Bastion
Basically the Bastion but the body is backwards, so driving forward gives off the illusion that you're driving in reverse, but you aren't.
Literally just driving forwards but the body is facing the wrong way, like the Backwards Bob Monster Truck.

i will base engine off of that

god i hate blender at times

[zenith cloud]

bottom of door

[signal lotus]

a

[fathom yacht]

the shading is pretty often really easy to fix

[zenith cloud]

sometimes it isnt

[fathom yacht]

you just move the verticles in some certain ways

[zenith cloud]

still cant fix my rear bumper

[fathom yacht]

also it depends on autosmooth level
i mean the degrees

[zenith cloud]

i use manual autosmooth

[signal lotus]

A

[zenith cloud]

have you tried average face area?

[wooden bolt]

no, I will try it later

any cool more lore friendly name for F1? O think B1 sounds weird
there is a BRC sticker on vivace so I don't want to use real name

I want to make safety and medi car configs for ETKs

[misty jay]

you would need to add another loop to make it look good enough ish i think
but you might get away by adding another one to the well and settings sharp edge

but i am not the modelere of that car

[misty jay]

wait a minute...

sounds oddly farmiliar

GP:A / GPA /GP1

since the FiA Said we are gonna do standardized Grand Prix races, and they called the open wheel series Formula A

but that quickly turned into Formula 1

[wooden bolt]

okay, thanks for suggestions!
I will probably use GP1

so, 800 will be medical car
K series is going to be safety

[misty jay]

800 Medic

[misty jay]

i also made a safety car skin, that isnt related to F1

[wooden bolt]

huh

Okay, I wil try it later

[misty jay]

the medical car is from the 2021 season in the first image

you can set triangulation thingies?

[zenith cloud]

gp1 is good 👍

[misty jay]

oooh you mean the minimum vertecies

oh yeah holy sh

[zenith cloud]

in project cars they call it formula a

[misty jay]

seems to close to the real name, this is beam after all

i used an extra loop for the wheelarch

[wooden bolt]

BP1 wouldn't make sense in full name, but sounds more beam

[misty jay]

the other brands in game don't sound like beam either thats just what whe think of them because they are in the beam universe

but i dont know how to fix these shading issues

[zenith cloud]

nah just call it gp1

that would be like if we called it milky way prix 1 irl

[misty jay]

damn thats a good design

but you could try making that a bit smoother

[wooden bolt]

?

[misty jay]

yeah that seems about right

wait i have an idea

i thought of a finish/start line to divide the letters

[fathom yacht]

can you show the polyflow?

[misty jay]

neeh to complicated

[wooden bolt]

it's "kinda" bad

[misty jay]

you probably booleaned the arches out

i would suggest making a sphere then settings it to 24 elements and then move it scale proportianally then connect the polys and try to t oadapt the flow around it a bit

[frozen bone]

I'm so happy that the bugatti chiron was remastered the old one was bad (civetta scintilla engine sound) I'm so happy it has a way better engine sound

[misty jay]

oh and im seeing on the soft top you might want to collapse the two loops into one

[fathom yacht]

oh damn

im not wondering that that thing happened

[misty jay]

but i would also conside just remodeling it with the only thing in mind: edge flow

[wooden bolt]

I don't want to make it anymore

I would remodel it 10 times and it will still be bad

[misty jay]

dont think about it like that

you will improve

dont delete it though

[leaden pine]

yeah every time you try you get better

[misty jay]

and we can give you feedback, maybe i can even help model it with you

+#

[zenith cloud]

i really like the gp, the 1 feels a bit off though

maybe its a little far away or something

[misty jay]

now back to daily unreal engine shenanigans

[wooden bolt]

I'm gonna try to remodel it in a few days
I need to have break from car models

[wooden bolt]

I will make it closer to GP, I was thinking about connecting bottom

[leaden pine]

Try to model a room or something dont just stick with cars lol

gets boring over time

[zenith cloud]

idk if that will work considering P doesnt have a line at the bottom

maybe the top? but i feel like that might reduce readability

[misty jay]

i kinda want to make a beamng VR experience now

[zenith cloud]

dont we all?

[misty jay]

but with stunning graphics in ue4

i said experience not game

[zenith cloud]

oh

[wooden bolt]

I think I will just put it closer, it looks weird with connections

I don't know how I will end up with it, so I might need help 💀

[ashen flame]

@wild raft is it possible to make tires explode at a certain speed?

without complicated LUA (or any LUA for that matter)

[drowsy frost]

Feel free to send me a friend req if you ever need any help, I'd be more than happy to help.

[wild raft]

Sure

[ashen flame]

teach me the ways

[wild raft]

You could tune tires to have basically no expansion resistance

Or have low strength

[ashen flame]

so this value?

[wild raft]

Or both
And then tune the tire failure from that

[haughty jewel]

dont you dare actually limit the top speed of those tires

[wild raft]

Precisely

[ashen flame]

kiss goodbye to 100mph

[latent ivy]

imagine doing with the koenigsegg logo lol

[amber palm]

Jokes on you im gonna edit the files

[wooden bolt]

[ashen flame]

i will make sure to make those tires a misery

[tough dagger]

Привет

[wooden bolt]

spare wheel tires?
or something else

[haughty jewel]

😭

[ashen flame]

donuts iirc

[amber palm]

#russian-русский

[ashen flame]

so far that didnt make it explode

[wild raft]

Well it makes it expand easier-

[ashen flame]

does higher make it expand more?

i must be missing something

[wild raft]

Wait no don’t mess with that

[wild raft]

More spring = stiffer

[near osprey]

good rim 👍

[ashen flame]

o

[languid timber]

Nice decal

[ashen flame]

which value lets you do that?

[near osprey]

is this real guys?

[haughty jewel]

yes

[amber palm]

no.

[amber palm]

You simply can not beat me to death if i refuse

[haughty jewel]

what if they do it anyways?

[amber palm]

i have a godmode gavril vertex :trol:

[wild raft]

I would just mess with beamstrength

Maybe make the tire a bit stiffer

[ashen flame]

they're getting closer to burstage at 150mph

(wheelspeed)

[strange maple]

Does someone has that good Mazda MX-5 NA mod?

NC would be nice tho

I had one, but i deleted it by accident

[ashen flame]

Did some tire tweaking, they now burst at 120-130 but in the air

[stiff lark]

I feel like 150MPH still too much. Right?

[wild raft]

Are we talking wrong or correct units?

[ashen flame]

correct units (MPH)

Tire quite literally comes off

[wild raft]

🧐

[ashen flame]

after 160mph

[wild raft]

So like 255km/h

[ashen flame]

pretty much but i want to get it lower to maybe like 95mph

and without the tire coming off in such a way the speed limiter doesn't like it (Pretty much inhibits the vehicle from accelerating)

[wild raft]

Ayo wtf thats actually really close
5head

[ashen flame]

6head and i'm still trying to get tires that are bombs

ig ill make it so it worsens at higher speed than outright burst

Ok

[idle merlin]

It looks like an old version of slant of death

[long wagon]

where can i find updated graphics in beamng? with camera shake and new lighting

[timber heron]

there's no camera shake yet

normally steam automatically updates the game so im assuming you're on a cracked version of beam

[unreal spruce]

question can somme one can make a car mode a toyota mr2 1989

[neon magnet]

nope

maybe there are but dont trust those sites

[wicked egret]

The only way to ensure a car you like get's into beamng you gotta make it yourself

[unreal spruce]

oh

[neon magnet]

considering the confusion that i experience just modifying one, good luck making one from scratch

[wicked egret]

I wish there were more irl cars

[neon magnet]

chiron be like

[wicked egret]

But I can't expect to get what I want so I'll take whats given

[neon magnet]

u have the mod right

[wicked egret]

yeah

[neon magnet]

got it

[wicked egret]

it is very pretty

Innocent is a great modder

[neon magnet]

vert ex

[wicked egret]

I would love group b rally cars in this game, with these physics

i dont now aw make a mod 😅

[long wagon]

iam update beamng drive!

[wicked egret]

same

[long wagon]

thx

[unreal spruce]

so haw im gona make my home car ?

[neon magnet]

we would first need their base

wait

[unreal spruce]

i know noting wit 3d mod coding

[wicked egret]

lua script and blender

lua is the coding language roblox uses

[neon magnet]

highly suggest u learn 3d modelling first

[wicked egret]

I have blender

[unreal spruce]

i have blender but i dont aw use them

[wicked egret]

Haven't even made a donut yet

[wicked egret]

there are so many tools it seems overwhelming

[neon magnet]

true, u wont use most of em

muted :(

[unreal spruce]

i tinks im never got have my toyota mr2 🥲

[wicked egret]

I want it too but I guess for the mean time drive the MR Covet Turbo

Though it can't be equipped with a supercharger

[unreal spruce]

its a auther idea

[ember urchin]

anyone got a good reshader preset?

[languid timber]

Using the AgentY Global Tuning mod, you can put a supercharger in any engine, although it's fully customizable, so you'll have to tune the physical parameters of it yourself

[wicked egret]

yeah but that requires whatever beammp server I join also have that

Also I think most cars should be able to have a choice of a supercharger or turbo

Yeah you could just install a mod but thats annother thing

[glass lynx]

is there official documentation on map creation?

unless you disable automatic updates.

[bright jacinth]

too bad i have 0 knowledge in 3d modeling

and car modelling takes alot of practice and work to ensure quality

[dim crystal]

Who asked

[bright jacinth]

you even have to make the interior exactly like real life

thats if you want a quality mod

[wicked egret]

you idk try a forza mesh and add to it to make it ready for use in beamng

take that and add the stuff it's missing that's required

[bright jacinth]

but my car that i want to add isn't in forza

[dim crystal]

Who asked?

[wicked egret]

then gran turismo, assetto, or any other game idk

I've never made a mod either

[wicked egret]

What car is it?

[bright jacinth]

its avaliable in fh1 i think

[wicked egret]

what car?

[bright jacinth]

but fh1 was never on pc but i am pretty sure there are cds

that you can grab files from

i don't have the cd for forza horizion 1

but i am pretty sure its avaliable online but i don't know how to grab files from it

[wicked egret]

WHAT CAR

[bright jacinth]

can't say

[wicked egret]

ok

[neon magnet]

bro wants a car to be in beam without telling us what it is

[bright jacinth]

thats about the only place where i can find the car

[neon magnet]

U at least remember how it looks like

[bright jacinth]

i see it everyday

i know its name and hell even some memeber of this server likes it

not just me

[neon magnet]

so maybe tell us the name and we can help u find
