Image for background, then font ontop

and there are plate fonts that emboss the plate

so it sticks out

[fringe maple]

Iran doesn't use English letters, does this make it harder?

It looks like this

[lilac nova]

if anyone would like to join a private mods server please dm me

[ocean mauve]

little bit harder, means you would have to add a custom font. but that is definitely possible

[fringe maple]

Thanks, i think i have to watch some tutorials for this

[strong harbor]

I deactivated all my mod and one by one been checking them and I can't figure out what I'm looking for.

[ocean mauve]

What are you trying to do?

[strong harbor]

oh, I'm trying to figure out if my mods are clashing with each other

[oblique anvil]

where can i get irl car mods?

like cars from real life in beam

[blissful crane]

You don't most of them are poor quality meshslaps

[oblique anvil]

im asking where i can get GOOD ones

[latent ivy]

hi

[native mulch]

Think this lane width is good for a small, slightly curvy main road?

[latent ivy]

hmm

well I like narrow roads

[solemn vector]

Looks quite narrow to me honestly

[native mulch]

yeah Its 6m from white line to white line I guess I should take the yellow line width into consideration?

[solemn vector]

Where is the road built I.e. what country or at least what continent

[native mulch]

TN, USA

Small country main road.

[solemn vector]

Well in US a lane is usually 10 feet/6 meters so I think it's not that far off

If it's meant to be higher speed/freer flowing then it might be 12 feet wide lane

[native mulch]

Alright yeah, so maybe just take the middle yellow lines into consideration and make it that much wider? Nah not a highway.

"Speed limit" 45mph

[native mulch]

Does this lane width look good?

[solemn vector]

Yeah that looks nicer imho

[oblique anvil]

looks better

[blissful crane]

Two good ones I found was crown Vic and Bugatti on official beam mods page

[silent dune]

yea just seeing how the jbeam will work so this is it so far

[hollow citrus]

Do you install maps the same way you install any other mod?

[native mulch]

from the repository, yes.

[hollow citrus]

i mean manually

[native mulch]

Pretty sure you just throw the zip into mods folder in beam app data folder. I could be wrong though

[oblique anvil]

🫱 hand it over rn my man

[hollow citrus]

it worked

[young walrus]

Has anyone made a sxs?

[elder python]

Heh. Funni motor make Wydra go wee. (I make bad jokes.)

[fossil sierra]

anyone know where to find the Hoonicorn mod

[ashen flame]

Barstow speciale

[grave arrow]

What are some good mods you guys would recommend?

[oblique anvil]

linkz?

[fleet belfry]

anyone have a uhaul truck mod?

i must smash uhaul truck.

[crude robin]

there are a bunch of mods on the repository that aren't exactly uhaul trucks but are delivery trucks skins

i.e. top tier transport

[fleet belfry]

i remember someone had one from the website

i bookmarked it on my laptop but i'm on the big pc now

oh also is there a modern kia cars mod?

i want to smash my real car in the game (kia sorento)

aww

[grave arrow]

are there any good rallying mods you guys know of?

[fleet belfry]

yes get the fiat one

use the turbo one

it drifts like crazy in the dirt and is way way overtorqued so it does burnouts too

and it's yellow

[versed solstice]

Is there a 3000GT/GTO Mod?

[ashen flame]

No

[versed solstice]

Okay
Convert the Juiced 2 3000GT Model from GTA SA to BeamNG

[ashen flame]

don’t you think that’s snobby wording?

there is no demand, you don’t need to be demanding

you’re not gonna die from not having an 3000GT

(frankly enough better without a Mitsubishi)

[naive axle]

i wish there was an option to view only a group of nodes when using ctrl+n

[midnight shale]

can somebody tell me what the mod is that has the 2nd gen bumpers on the 1st gen pessima

[fossil echo]

JinHai Pavilion, it's on the repo

[midnight shale]

no sorry I meant the 2nd gen front end

[fossil echo]

Oh idk

[midnight shale]

i've seen one

[fossil echo]

Where

[midnight shale]

idk

[fossil echo]

Oh

[midnight shale]

it looked cool

[fossil echo]

Ehh

The JinHai Pavilion it's a mix too

Of the both gens

You can try it

[midnight shale]

I know

Ive seen it

[fossil echo]

Yeah it's cool

[balmy scroll]

the early version of jinhai pavillion

[fossil echo]

I say him

[fossil echo]

But he said no

[midnight shale]

can I still download it?

[balmy scroll]

no

[fossil echo]

Yeah sure

[midnight shale]

bruh

[fossil echo]

No??

[fossil echo]

Why not

[balmy scroll]

dont answer it if you dont really know the answer

[balmy scroll]

its an early version of the jinhai-ibishu pavillion that the author probably already deleted from their computer

[fossil echo]

Oh my fault

Sorry

[sleek burrow]

is there a mod for a hatchback mk2 pessima?

[solemn vector]

Not anymore

Remaster broke everything and there haven't been replacements made since

Not that I know of at least

[balmy scroll]

heh

not really a "hatchback pessima" but its a mk2 pessima frontend on a vivace

[sleek burrow]

what the f

cursed

[solemn vector]

oh right

the pesvace

[solemn vector]

something malicious is planning

[balmy scroll]

mg-rover moment

[native mulch]

I'm not ready to yet, but just curious, how finished should a map mod be before you release it to the public?

[frank kelp]

finished

like properly done

[solemn vector]

Less finished it will be, worse rating it will have

[native mulch]

I guess for me in particular, should I release it when I get my roads nice and polished, or wait until I get buildings and aesthetics in?

[balmy scroll]

wait until you find it finished

[unreal chasm]

or he can release a wip version to have some opinions of the things to modify?

[solemn vector]

You can probably make a WIP beta release on forums

Not on repo

Then release full on repo once it's done

[native mulch]

Alright. Yeah I dont know a single thing about releasing a mod lol

[fringe maple]

Great, can you keep me updated on this?

[unreal chasm]

You can see it on #714429950765301791

anyone here ever modded euro truck simulator 2?

[pearl laurel]

ok im here

[snow isle]

so basically, i just put the buggy's dae in blender took the turbos off it and yea made it fit with a bit of modelling, theres not uch more to it

[pearl laurel]

...

[pearl laurel]

idk how to :c

[latent ivy]

Are there any lore car mods based on a Toyota SUV/Truck ?

[snow isle]

you can find the dae's in beams files, i've been learning how to mod the past weeks so im not the most knowledgeable person jet lel

[pearl laurel]

this thing?

[snow isle]

in the autobuggy file yess

[pearl laurel]

ok

[pearl laurel]

???

[snow isle]

you got it

[pearl laurel]

ok after i click it

[snow isle]

well you gotta import that to blender

[pearl laurel]

...

ok

ill tell when i did it

ok downloaded blender and did it

[pearl laurel]

it doesnt show up

the engine thing

[pearl laurel]

u there?

[snow isle]

did you do this?

[pearl laurel]

ye

[snow isle]

try copying the file somewhere that isn't zip packed

[pearl laurel]

k

tf

[snow isle]

yep good luck now you gotta pick what you like and save it etc xd, you're probably better of looking for tutorials for how to navigate blender and such tho

maybe theres a better way of doing this but like i said, i also just started modding so my methods might not be the best

[pearl laurel]

this one u used

[unreal chasm]

for pick up a thing in blender to an other one, you can just copy past

[snow isle]

nah the big one, or the twin turbs

[pearl laurel]

k il try to find those

[pearl laurel]

i did it

[snow isle]

ye but copying objects duplicates the material too which is a bit annoying

[pearl laurel]

ok and do i clone it

or wha

[snow isle]

you could make a separate save of it or just inport the burnside or whatever you want, be sure to put them in collections tho

[pearl laurel]

idk any of that bro

[unreal chasm]

You can't delete the material after ?

[snow isle]

im sorry man, you gotta watch tutorial's for blender i don't know how to explain

[ocean mauve]

yea just gotta rename it (remove the .001, .002, whatever)

[pearl laurel]

ok

[unreal chasm]

oh ok thx

[ocean mauve]

probably in common.zip, which is in the content folder just like all the car.zip's

[molten marten]

ah yeah i see it

rallyparts.dae

not that one

[timber lantern]

mod idea: 2021 Ford Fusion base, mid, high level trims. Fictional name would be "Gavril Fishy" or something like that 🙂

[crystal dock]

[weary island]

someone should make a map with only these barrels lol

[covert lance]

What are some of the best quality real life car mods? I know Lucas’ DeLorean is pretty high quality.

[ocean mauve]

^ should be able to find some in here @covert lance

[covert lance]

thx!

[drowsy monolith]

im making a map, and im referencing a specific real-world area. the area is a tilted square if we assume north is on top. can i move north on my map so it mathes the tilted square area and so i dont have to make the actual map any bigger just to place north in the right direction?

a ping would be appreciated :)

[gusty vector]

No idea if this is the right channel (sorry if it isn't), but is there a way to remove my highscores from my self-made ai race?

[junior radish]

not many good ones

[compact meadow]

What is one BeamNG modding website?

Not just the one in the game itself

I'm trying to get a Tasti Cola van skin

[wicked egret]

The beamng forums will show more mods than what's seen in the repository

[nimble valley]

and those mods often have their updates on page 57 for example which can be annoying.

some modders forget to update the original post with the updates or the original poster left long time ago

[wicked egret]

how's that 240z goin?

[nimble valley]

yea im having alot of fun with it

why?

[wicked egret]

I wanna see more accurate irl mods made

[nimble valley]

yea me too

so i did it myself since so few care.

[tender saffron]

do recreations of the fullsize hotwheels count?

[nimble valley]

lol

[wicked egret]

I guess?

We could have route 35 in beamng

https://tenor.com/view/kurt-wylde-street-breed-hot-wheels-world-race-gif-23821876

[nimble valley]

route 35?

[tender saffron]

ive made automation version of a few. I will be doing proper versions once i figure out how to actually do everything other than the jbeam and models

[wicked egret]

It's an animated cartoon from the early 2000s

We had it on VHS

It was a Hotwheels show

It's pretty good

[tender saffron]

i have a digital copy of 35 and accel

[nimble valley]

there is this weird merging of animated cartoons and car fans

not saying there is anything wrong with animated cartoons like anime and such

[wicked egret]

car culture has always been influenced by media

[nimble valley]

im just not into it

yea i guess you are right

[wicked egret]

Like Cannonball Runn, Dukes of Hazzard, Smokey and the Bandit, Herbie, Mad Max and more

[nimble valley]

for example the Toyota Ae86 which then has a really huge following because of some animated series on a tofu delivery driver.

which i dont follow at all i just like the rwd 4 banger.

[hollow citrus]

Are there more paid mods than just in the google docs?

i want good ones

[wicked egret]

Or how the R34 and Toyota Supra are now the most overpriced cars in existence because of Paul Walker

[nimble valley]

yea but paul walker is a real life figure though

but i get your point

[wicked egret]

Not the character he plays in FNF

[tender saffron]

1 actually. one is a custom varient and the other is a normal hotwheel

[nimble valley]

wow the pagani huayra mod is really being improved.

[nimble valley]

ah yes ofc

[wicked egret]

Granted I think all cars mentioned would still be popular if they weren't displayed on film and tv

[nimble valley]

i think these maps and car mods would not have been made if it wasnt for passionate fans of those movies and shows.

[wicked egret]

exactly

[nimble valley]

yea for their sound and looks alone.

[wicked egret]

I wouldn't spend most of my days racing other people on windy mountain roads on beammp if it wasn't for initial d

[nimble valley]

and other people like me benefit from that with epic mods for beam 😄

which i then make more realistic or try.

should i release the 240z changes?

how will the community make it better?

i found the stock wheels for it...

[wicked egret]

Release them if you want

[wicked egret]

ooh yeah add those

[nimble valley]

im just thinking if i release the more realistic changes the community will be more likely to make it even better

i only want to release it if that is the case

[wicked egret]

In order to do that I feel like the mod would have to be exceptionally good that handling alone won't do

[nimble valley]

well it feels really believable now

[wicked egret]

While I do think that it handling realistically is cool others would probably want more

like more parts and whatnot

[nimble valley]

yea i can only do the engine, gearbox, tire grip and drag coefficient.

and some other things.

[wicked egret]

I still need to find some motivation to do blender, I do wanna learn it I just gotta get myself to want to learn it enough

[nimble valley]

yea there has to be a good reason to actually start

or i would think so

[wicked egret]

I should find some class that teaches it, maybe havin it scheduled would make me more inclined to do it

I have always learned better from word of mouth than trying to research on my own

[shadow knoll]

Been trying to change the colour of the control arms/suspension/subframe/ect with no luck using scuffed Ps and paint works for wheel texters theirs like 5 or so files that look the same can you help?

Hey guys, there are several vids showcasing steam locomotive mods, but I can't find any. Is there by any chance you can explain or try and send me links to some?

[tender saffron]

pretty sure they're private mods

[glass oar]

Awwww man

Oh well

[tender saffron]

creeper

[glass oar]

Lmao

[tender saffron]

lol

[fleet belfry]

so i really want to get one of my favorite cars in

the trabant.

is there a mod?

[glass oar]

Idk

But I'm also having some problems with the Bruckel firehawk mod

The back wheel tires are missing

Not the entire wheel, just the tires

[balmy scroll]

there are automation mods of that

[cursive sinew]

Can someone suggest me a Porsche mod that isn't mesh slapped or ripped from a different game. I don't mind if it doesnt have too many configs or parts to change, I just want a genuine Porsche lol. I don't care which model or spec either

Or even if it's paid

If one doesn't exist I'm willing to pay for one to be properly made

Just wondering if it's possible for it to be colorable or whatever so it doesn't blend into the road lol

[native mulch]

@ocean mauve I think metallic is either 0 or 1 I don't think anything is in between. Not sure if that's what youre changing with your various levels.

[ocean mauve]

im not messing with that setting, but with the actual metallic maps

the white is the little tap on the top of the bottle, the black are things like the labels and stuff. the rest is shaded based on how metallic i want it to be

[native mulch]

Ye, technically there are no gray values in a metallic map.

[ocean mauve]

there is now

actually i just noticed i made a small oopsie with the gauge on the metallic maps 😅 that is supposed to be the same on each map

[manic sphinx]

Yes there are. Metalic maps are grayscale

[native mulch]

They are in grayscale, but the values should be either 0 or 1. From my small amount of texturing knowledge anyways

[latent ivy]

For physically accurate/full realistic, there is no gray
Something is either metal, or it isnt*

*there are things that are in between but 99.99% of the time your stuff isnt going to be made of that lol

there are also reasons to do it for stylistic approaches

[manic sphinx]

Look at other beamng metalic maps

[latent ivy]

like I sometimes put a bit of metallic in my fabrics, because that can give it a nice fabricy sheen

but if you are just doing a metal bottle, you probably want 1 or 0, and make sure your albedo is in the right value range

[ocean mauve]

even the 'no metallic' one is still pretty close to being white on the metallic map so eh

bout 80 lightness

[native mulch]

I mean if you say there are, I believe you. I am new to Beam NG modding, I just come from Blender and UE

[ocean mauve]

and yea this basically

just want it to look cool 🤷

[latent ivy]

I mean I work in game/tv/film artistry so, yeah sometimes ignoring what is 'accurate' is good if what you are aiming for is not photorealism

usually you want to start accurate and pull away from it but

unless its really stupid like I once saw a guardrail that was not set to metallic and that just was why

[manic sphinx]

Irl things are metal or not but every metal has a different look. Also paint can have any amount of metallic flakes

[latent ivy]

stuff like paint is a whole different ballgame

those usually use their own super special multi-layer shaders

clear coat/ carbon fiber/ car paint
all of those on items are pain

[teal gyro]

i've had this problem for ages with the ibishu signia full payed mod and wondering if anyone can help me out since i didnt get a real answer last time.

The race interior, roll cage and a couple other items including the wheelie bar, are invisible. They still seem to have their nodes but nothing else. Can anyone help me out?

I purchased it from gumroad, if that helps

[ocean mauve]

did someone say carbon fibre

[latent ivy]

I cant remember but I think beamng can do carbon fiber right, its just weird to set up

because your material needs multiple layers

[ocean mauve]

yeah it all looks kinda matte satin ish

[latent ivy]

it needs the carbon fiber with its own roughness and normal, and then a layer on top which is smooth and shiny for the clearcoat

[teal gyro]

can somebody ping the creator of the mod for me, I dont know his discord username

[ocean mauve]

@polar cedar hi i was forced to ping you ^

[ocean mauve]

can someone link me a good open wheel car mod? (axept for all of them)

[halcyon magnet]

that is exactly why i want an open wheeler made by BeamNG Team. Cause the difference between Mods and BeamNG Cars: BeamNG Cars never disapoint

[native mulch]

just need someone very dedicated

[halcyon magnet]

Part E (Party)

[unreal chasm]

for me lucasBE's open wheel are the best, after you have the fr17/16

[halcyon magnet]

can you link him?

[fickle ermine]

I’m surprised no one has made something like the Hoonitruck. Also the Moonicorn is cool but it would be cool to see the other Gymkhana cars or Ken Blocks rally cars

[teal gyro]

because they'd all be forza models

[fickle ermine]

True but Gymkhana cars in Beam would be sick

[unreal chasm]

what you want ?

[unreal chasm]

make car in beamng take many time :/

[halcyon magnet]

the link to his website on beamng

[unreal chasm]

you can find his mod in the repository in game

[halcyon magnet]

the r4?

[fickle ermine]

Remember when Shinyodd made a Beam mod in 2 hours 😂

[unreal chasm]

we are not talking about the same thing :/

[unreal chasm]

[unreal chasm]

They are outdated but they work perfectly

[unreal chasm]

for the f1 you have only the fr17

[halcyon magnet]

ok i just found out that my mods wont even show up in beamng so no more need for research

ig its broken

[wide depot]

how do you make the interior camera different

for example i am in a rhd car but the interior camera is in the passenger side

whats the fix?

[unreal chasm]

For your mod ?

[wide depot]

nope. just a r31 mod i found that i wanted to change the interior camera for

theres also some other ones that i need to change but never seemed to find a solution

[unreal chasm]

The easy way is to use the relative camera

and move it to the right position with wasd

[wide depot]

i play with my keyboard..

i will soon get a steering wheel

[unreal chasm]

yes and ?

[wide depot]

how would i even play with relative camera

[unreal chasm]

you are actually playing with what type of camera ?

[wide depot]

i mean if you could tell me which part of a code i should change then that should be helpful

[wide depot]

camera number 2 (interior)

[unreal chasm]

You need to open the mod folder, go into the .jbeam file

[wide depot]

interior.jbeam?

[unreal chasm]

give me a screen of the mod folder please

[wide depot]

alright here you go

[unreal chasm]

Oh

wait a minute please

[wide depot]

alright

[teal gyro]

just wondering, where did you find this mod?

[bleak vessel]

Unfortunately, the author of the video did not leave a download link either in the description or in the comments, so please help me in the search, there is no link on the BMNG forum

[unreal chasm]

ok

Open the body.jbeam

[wide depot]

worldofmods i know where im searching so no viruses its only a zip file

[wide depot]

i have the mod

[wide depot]

alright next

[unreal chasm]

search the "camerasinternal":[ (it's near line 100)

[wide depot]

alright

[unreal chasm]

after search the "dash" last line, and modify this to adjust the position to the car

you need to validate change with winrar

like the tachometer isnt working etc

[unreal chasm]

Oh that why you talk about different color

[unreal chasm]

It's normal because it's a toy :/

[wild grotto]

but i cannot even shift gears and the lights arent working

[unreal chasm]

It's a electric toy so it didn't have gears, and light are like a real toy ( they are on but light nothing)

[ocean mauve]

For me the light doesn't light to, so it's a normal feature, same for the tacho because it's just a toy for child.

[wild grotto]

i mean the ui tacho

not the sticker on the dashboard

A console telling you what mod is incompatible and which mod is currently compatible with such versions of beamng. Example: This mod "Mod Name" steering link is interfering with this mod "Mod Name" ..... Then could eventually become a cleaner of some sort. ?

[ocean mauve]

And how would the game know that the mods are interfering?

[latent ivy]

hey does the look ahead mod still work?

Hello, I am unable to create BeamNG paint mod, when I put them on the car, all the color parts display but the black part of the paint does not display and the car has a terrible color with a huge watermark on top. Help please : (

[unreal chasm]

@lapis sail Yes, you are right, I just translate it word by word from French. (In French for the same situation I will use these words)

[lapis sail]

Oh I gotcha

[lunar nimbus]

U can help me so ?

i posted a message with a picture

can u help me pls

[ocean mauve]

Can you send a screenshot of your skin.materials.json?

[unreal chasm]

No because I'm new to modding :/

[lunar nimbus]

Ok

[ocean mauve]

That's super outdated, try working with this one:

[lunar nimbus]

Sry i screen the .cs file should i delete cs file and add the json or just add json and keep the .cs ?

[ocean mauve]

Delete the .cs, and use the .json I sent instead. .cs is outdated and no longer used for beam, everything is .json now

[lunar nimbus]

Ok ...

[lunar nimbus]

When i put it on the car the paint isn't visible. Its a white car .

[ocean mauve]

And what does the .json look like?

[lunar nimbus]

Like that

[ocean mauve]

Well yea you'd need to actually add your skin to it...
Change line 19 "baseColorMap": "vehicles/vivace/vivace_skin_gendarmerie_uv1.color.png", to whatever your file is, so in this case "baseColorMap": "vehicles/vivace/TestMod/vivace_skin_TestMod.dds",

[lunar nimbus]

Ok ty

[lunar nimbus]

i change it and its white too

[ocean mauve]

Hmm not sure what could be the issue then, everything is the same as the vanilla skin except for the actual skin file itself so it should just show up? idk

[lunar nimbus]

Its a dds file so idk

[ocean mauve]

Yea that's fine, all texture files are .dds
It says .png for most of them in the .json but that's fine, it'll still load them

[lunar nimbus]

So u gonna test the file ?

[ocean mauve]

Yea doing that rn

[lunar nimbus]

ok ty for ur time

[ocean mauve]

Mistake on my part, I think "TestMod": { "name": "TestMod", "mapTo": "TestMod",should be```
"vivace.skin.TestMod": {
"name": "vivace.skin.TestMod",
"mapTo": "vivace.skin.TestMod",

[lunar nimbus]

ok i test

[ocean mauve]

That means it wasn't able to find you texture file, are you sure the file path is correct? So the "baseColorMap": "vehicles/vivace/TestMod/vivace_skin_TestMod.dds", thing in line 19
Was able to get it ingame just fine

[lunar nimbus]

ok ty for ur time ; )

[lyric cedar]

Gave +1 Reputation to @ocean mauve

Also make sure you compress your texture correctly, should be BC7 (sRGB, DX 11+), made your file go from 25mb to 8mb (and using other compression formats can cause texture bugs)

Love a good calibra

[timid island]

would there be a way to make an even simpler dynocurve ui app? where there are no boxes to tick, that can be made smaller without having it go into scrolling mode and cutting off...
is there such a thing already?

[sick forge]

look at this (its a calibra)

[silver hatch]

That’s sick, seen it before I think

[timid island]

etk präziso (calibra = calibrate = making something precise -> precise = präzise (in german)

[silver hatch]

Probably just modifying that ui app you could get that but nothing on the repo that I know of

You could make it show only the max output of the engine without the boxes

[sick forge]

wow

[timid island]

or because its a gm maybe put it under the bruckell name and call it excell or somfin tacky and tech based 90s thing

[silver hatch]

in the uk it was branded under Vauxhall

[timid island]

precisa now that i think about it. (more precise = präziser in german -> precisa would make for a thing every alphabet can cover and someone can pronounce)

[sick forge]

i like that

[timid island]

i will never forgive them for making us get rid of the name kadett (cadet) for the opel astra. only because vauxhall decided to call it astra when it was called kadett here.
Opel had the greatest name game, from cadet to diplomat, with captian, admiral, record, commodore and all that good stuff inbetween.
by hearing the name and the beginning and end of the lineup you could almost always instantly tell what position the person driving it was in!

(the opel corsa started breaking it all down)

fun fact: opel kadetts (vauxhall astras) where build in my hometown (Bochum) and i would have liked to do my apprenticeship there but opel decided it was to expensive to build cars here.

[silver hatch]

they were good at names i agree

[solemn vector]

Roth Corvus

[sick forge]

yes it was owned by gm but bruckell is american cars brand

[solemn vector]

Since Calibra is a constellation

Corvus is also one

https://starchild.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/StarChild/questions/88constellations.html you can use this for inspiration maybe

[sick forge]

why roth?

[solemn vector]

Roth is lore friendly Opel brand

[sick forge]

ohhh

Roth Alpha was that Omega mod

Anyone know how to make wheels from a mod "universal" so i can use them on other cars?

[ocean mauve]

set their slotType to wheel_F_5 and wheel_R_5 for front and rear 5 lug wheels, and wheel_F_6 and wheel_R_6 for front and rear 6 lug wheels

if you wanna see some examples, and find the names of the tire slots, check out content/vehicles/common/wheels, the .jbeam files in there will have them

[floral sluice]

the slots are right, i tried changing the slottype but that doesnt change anything

how do you mean?

it wont show up in mods manager when i put it in mods folder

And how exactly have you put it in the mods folder?
Should be

0.27/mods/unpacked/name/vehicles/roth/roth.jbeam

or

0.27/mods/name.zip/vehicles/roth/roth.jbeam

[ocean mauve]

Maybe give this a shot for the jbeam```
{
"roth": {
"information":{
"authors":"SubieBerry",

"slotType" : "main",
"slots": [
["type", "default", "description"],

//add more slots here for frame, body, whatever ;)
],
},
}

[sick forge]

ok

[sick forge]

still nothing

[silver hatch]

try using a vanilla jbeam for a car then change what you need

might be easier to start with

[ocean mauve]

@sick forge maybe check this then? Because for me the .jbeam I sent works just fine, and as you can see below, it shows up ingame

[silver hatch]

Or restart game @sick forge

[sick forge]

ok so my original code worked but only the unpacked version :?

[ocean mauve]

if its directly in mods then it has to be a .zip file instead of a folder. so instead of just a folder named modname, you'd have to have modname.zip, with your vehicles file in there

[sick forge]

it was in the mod manager

i just had to restart the game idk

[ocean mauve]

👌

usually have to restart when adding a new mod yeah, to prevent this i just have a folder called 'stuff' in my unpacked folder, where i have all my work in progess mods. so i can add new ones in there without having to restart

it would be pretty cool

all you had to do is restart game 😄

and disabling other mods too. Mod conflicts n all can be accidental

I activate and deactivate my mod, and for a little change I reload the vehicle with the debug menu, I don't like to use this shortcut

[sick anvil]

Hey! First timer here; I know this may be a little bit of an extreme case and i'm using a couple of mods combined so some issues are to be expected; but i was wondering if maybe some of you may know where some values are to remedy some of my problems?

Axles are a little too weak, causing the wheels to fly off. Sometimes while steering, The front wheels wobble quite a lot, Sometimes so bad that it deforms the suspension/steering geometry causing the vehicle to pull a certain direction under power. Sometimes also, while under power, the front left wheel will raise off the ground causing the vehicle to pull in a certain direction. I was also curious where i might be able to find the value for steering angle and track width. Thanks in advance!

[dusty laurel]

anyone know what mod adds this cut short body?
I need to find it so I can properly export the .dae file in blender cuz it looks so bad now lol

[manic nexus]

Not sure about all of it but the wheel lift is the chassis and frame being affected by engine torque

It’s actually sort of expected if you’re running a big powerful engine, unless there’s a bunch of rigidity and reinforcements done to it

[sick anvil]

yea im looking to overcome the engine torque tbh

[plucky inlet]

hi

[manic nexus]

Offhand the wheels might be affected by the hub strength but I only have really spotty modding knowledge.

I did a quick google and apparently people tend to put in “torque boxes” or connect their frames in the middle to make them stiffer

I think vanilla has some bars to protect the drive shaft and undercarriage but not sure if they would make it a lot stiffer 🤔

[sick anvil]

yea i think hub strength may also be an issue as well tbh; i'm not that far into modding. i'd definitely be able to do some value edits though

[manic nexus]

That would be my guess for some of the unwanted deformations and why the wheel is coming loose

[sick forge]

anyone know a indestructable wheel mod?\

[naive axle]

Bruh, i was testing this mitsubishi mod and found a sub and box pack that i made for a mod called mdpm v5 in gta sa back in 2018 😂

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1m6LWqKHIKGoYEheC4NhJqspYnE3TkMvgYClABfjYsbs/edit?usp=sharing

[solemn vector]

Most quality mods have it, I don't specifically know any real-life ones since I don't play with those

[lapis sail]

Frankly I don't use irl car mods for the simple reason that they're geenerally substantially lower quality than lore friendly cars

[solemn vector]

I don't use them cause for me BeamNG has it's own lore and it's own lore friendly cars

Whether they be mods or vanilla

Others just don't fit in

[lapis sail]

This too

[sick anvil]

I don't use them simply for the fact that there tends not to be any content made for them on the repo. Chances are, for example, You'll find more user generated content for the D15.

Beam's whole purpose to me, at least, is the customization and testing of new parts. Without it, I'd be bored in the blink of an eye.

[lapis sail]

Same here. I have a related question for you, may I DM?

https://www.beamng.com/threads/mazda-rx-7-pbr-update.85136/

[lapis sail]

That is a work in progress rework of the mod you have.

[drowsy frost]

Its been on hold for ages, not sure it's going back into production any time soon. Could be wrong though.

[queen cipher]

damn. i really wanted that nomi wing since it doesnt work on my current mod but oh well

[umbral drift]

Is this my wider axles mod? If so, I can get an update in to make the connection stronger.

[queen cipher]

i shot him a message hopefully he sees it and responds, since it looks like hes active

[sick anvil]

i believe it may be, sec and ill tell u

[sick anvil]

it is! 🙂

i think it's also just an issue with the hubs but idk

axles, somethin

[umbral drift]

Cool, what wheels are you using? I want to test with the same ones to see if I can overcome the breaking issue. The body twist under power is something I am working on as well

[lapis sail]

It has to do with hub stiffness, in Automation cars if the wheels break off on spawn the hubs are too stiff

[sick anvil]

i'm using 17x9 SP trophy 1000's on 48x18 masterbuilt rocktrax on wide 6 lug hubs

[umbral drift]

This is true, but in this case, I only changed the hub position and not much else.

[umbral drift]

Okay, I may not be able to get a fix in before the weekend, but I will get it in asap

[lapis sail]

I'd still try lowering the stiffness a bit, you never know

[sick anvil]

not a problem at all 🙂

[umbral drift]

What mod are those tires from? I had to make a few changes to bring the suspension to today's standards, but I haven't changed the hub connection beams and can't get the front or rear wheels to pop off. How much power are you running? I got over 1000 ft lb of torque with not even a wiggle on the front end.

[lapis sail]

Sounds like a mod conflict to me

[runic tendon]

I can't acces steam workshop

How can I fix this?

[lapis sail]

There’s no steam workshop

[runic tendon]

ow

[lapis sail]

For beamng

https://www.beamng.com/resources/

[umbral drift]

Gotta use the in game repository

[runic tendon]

how can install mod??

[lapis sail]

1. Open the game.
2. Click Repository

[queen cipher]

either on repo like bentonchiez said or go online on a reputable site and download a mod, open the beamng mods folder, and drap the .zip file that you downloaded into that mods folder

lots of tutorials on youtube too

[olive holly]

Instructions on how to install mods can be found here: ```
<https://documentation.beamng.com/tutorials/mods/installing-mods/>

[umbral drift]

The only real change I made was moving the rear swaybar nodes. Otherwise, it is nearly identical to the vanilla hub, minus being heavier to handle the wider suspension and greater beam spring

[sick anvil]

do the front wheels wobble under torque for you? even more so while hard cornering + torque

That's the biggest issue for me tbh, bigger wheels will cause them to wobble even more, and also makes it more likely they break off. i guess that's expected though

[latent ivy]

is there any bmw e30 mod with good interior?

[umbral drift]

Not really. Even my overweighted 48x20's don't cause much wiggle

I will still get an update in soon for this mod. I forgot how much of a mess it was.

Try clear cache

Or delete and reinstall the mod

whats cache

When you open the game launcher

Go to support tools

[frigid spindle]

And clear cache

I'll try too to clear cache for my problem

[neat meadow]

When in doubt if you find a issue in beam clear cache before reporting it here

I do not want to seem like I am arguing, I am just unable to recreate the issue on my end... This was a 140mph hit on that pyramid. Does this happen with any other tires?

You can use any 3d model, so yea roblox would be possible if you have the 3d model

[latent ivy]

also dont even know how to make an jbeam

[sick anvil]

I stepped out for a bit; I'll try again later. You're more than welcome to DM me if that works better for you!

[shrewd harbor]

i have 3d model but i have no idea how making car mod to beamngdrive works

[ocean mauve]

It is better to start with smaller mods, like making a single part, or a skin or something like that. Making an entire car is a lot of work and requires a lot of skill and experience

[ashen flame]

why are 90% of "i can't get ___ into beamng drive" always a car

[ocean mauve]

Well I mean full scratch made cars are cooler than a single part
People just don't realise that they're also a lot of effort

[ocean mauve]

Anyways here you can see how much is required to create even a simple moving box:

[humble kindle]

Oh haven't noticed him ig

[rugged sphinx]

Most likely in common since it's gavril and others like d series may share it, if you mean the inline 6 then I don't know

[oblique anvil]

I want that server on a "no fly list" froze my damn pc

for a solid 10 seconds

a "no use pls" list

[mystic kestrel]

That's not what froze you PC. That makes no sense

[oblique anvil]

[mystic kestrel]

No idea. The server is safe tho

[oblique anvil]

[lapis sail]

Yes, but it’s 5x more toxic than this server

[oblique anvil]

[lapis sail]

Not necessarily, happened to a friend of mine who has a better PC than me, they worked fine for me

[lapis sail]

Good

[zenith cloud]

992 isnt too awful

[lapis sail]

If you don’t like pings I’d put it in your name.

[zenith cloud]

if you dont like pings id switch on dnd

[lapis sail]

That too

[hasty pendant]

Hi guys, please stop harassing other users.

[fallow robin]

okay so i need help

i try to port sounds to this rs5 but whenever i do all the sounds go away

it becomes electric

and im not sure why

[lapis sail]

Please send a screenshot of your jbeam

The sound config and the sound config exhaust

I have a feeling there's a bracket or comma missing somewhere

[lapis sail]

Get rid of the . in your blend

So it'd be 29V6

Or if you prefer 2_9V6

[fallow robin]

okay ill try that now

and ill get back

[fallow robin]

unfortunately didnt work

still no sound

[lapis sail]

Hmm

Is there any metadata in your sound files?

[fallow robin]

like wdym?

sorry i dont really know much terms

[lapis sail]

Like any info embedded into the file itself

(i.e. artist name that coulda been added on accident)

[fallow robin]

i dont think so, but this is the blend file

im really not sure what the problem is

because all i did was change the sound and nothing else in the jbeam

did they remove vehicle sound debuug from world editor?

[fallow robin]

okay for some reason it started working out of no where after i applied the same sound to another car

heres the product but i do wanna find a way to add intake sounds to it

[fallow robin]

any criticism to help me improve the sound is greatly appreciated thank you

[tardy estuary]

Does is exist any good snowmobile mods?

[lapis sail]

Not really unfortunately

[balmy scroll]

You can make a snowmobile using the pigeon/wigeon by converting its lug to 5 lugs with agenty values mod and getting the ski from iyb offroad wheels mod

[tardy estuary]

Okay

[tall palm]

should i make this as my first mod?

[neon magnet]

i dont think so

try something smaller first

[balmy scroll]

try a prop

not a full blown yugo

[languid wagon]

Anyone know how to get danger to manifold on the laptop of the Gavril Vertex

[royal coral]

try a jbeam

[solemn vector]

[twin zinc]

Petition to give the Vertex a floorpan that falls off right before you blow the engine up

[wide depot]

[native mulch]

Anybody see this know much about optimizing a map for performance? I'm trying to optimize a bit as I go to save time later.
I need to know some info about how to render certain trees by certain distance and would like to know if groundcover across the map affects performance

[latent ivy]

the ghost rider

[unreal chasm]

@latent ivy Your kart is an automation one ?

[fallow robin]

found a way to get rid of most of the artifacting and i think it sounds way better now

[mystic kestrel]

@amber igloo official beamng forums. I think it's on 2fast, but don't download from there. Go to the official forums

[nimble valley]

fh4?

please tell me how you did it if it is fh4

engine synth sounds weak some of them

i think they are to be used overlayed ontop of the normal samples

[fallow robin]

might have been cuz i got the sound from an assetto mod

[fallow robin]

ig the normal should be put under the regular sound config then overlayed by exhaust config

[fallow robin]

not sure

[nimble valley]

Munaro

[teal pebble]

Anyone knows a good humvee mod?

[mystic kestrel]

Sounds great

[fallow robin]

looks just like the sounds i got

[nimble valley]

yea its forza horizon engine synth sounds

fh3 and fh4

[fallow robin]

i like it in that format cuz its way easier to blend

[fallow robin]

any idea how to use custom intake sounds? or maybe add custom burbles

[nimble valley]

no

yes but i cant be bothered to explain it

[fallow robin]

thank you!!

Anyone knows a good humvee\hummer mod?

[solemn vector]

There was one in development (The Brutus) but I think it has been cancelled though I am not sure. Regardless, aside from meshslaps, probably not

Certainly none on official forums that I know of

[azure wren]

Can someone help me with adding a second gear for the electric motor swap on the automation vehicle?

watch the tutorial

[rapid pond]

does anyone know why the scintilla gt3 mod has a v8 long block by default?

it doesn't make sense since the engine is a v10

and it changes the sound to be a v8

[ocean mauve]

ask the person who made the mod 🤷

[frank kelp]

author's choice

[rapid pond]

hmm ok...

[frank kelp]

completely fine IMHO

[rapid pond]

can I change it to the v10 regulated block and still call it a stock setup? bcuz it doesn't change the performance at all, just the sound.

[ocean mauve]

you can do whatever you want :P

[unreal chasm]

why you can't do that ?

[rapid pond]

cuz someone may not call it stock from the mod when it really is...

[unreal chasm]

But this config is only for you and the gt3 config is not a stock config too

[rapid pond]

i mean stock gt3, so like a fixed setup

[unreal chasm]

You can do it, don't worry about that

[rapid pond]

k thx

nobody cares about your configs, you can do whatever you want with them

[vague meteor]

I remember someone was making an amazing map with a bunker system you can walk trough. Does anyone know what happened to it or who was making it?

I remember a recent-ish post of a similar jungle map with an overgrown garage, who is making it so I can follow them?

[frank kelp]

What?

[alpine rivet]

does beamng load everyting even behind ground plane or would it help optimize a map to ''split'' it in half or something like that with a mountain or something in midle, mainly speaking of big maps

[wide depot]

how do i do jbeam in realtime?

[ocean mauve]

What do you mean in realtime?

[unreal chasm]

by deactivate and reactivate your mod

[ocean mauve]

Ah like that. Ctrl R should do the trick then

[wide depot]

i've read this forum post on the beamng website
https://www.beamng.com/threads/help-how-to-edit-jbeam-files-in-realtime.89327/
i have gotten interested in that and would like to know how it works?

[safe dew]

it probably uses view frustrum culling (everything outside of the camera pov is not rendered) but i have zero evidence to back this up besides the fact that the game actually runs

if anyone actually knows please correct me

[unreal chasm]

for me that crash my game lol

[ocean mauve]

Yea just keep the mod as a regular folder in 0.27/mods/unpacked, and Ctrl R whenever you make a change to it

[wide depot]

oh thanks. just one more thing is there something i need to know before i edit a jbeam of a car?

[lyric cedar]

Gave +1 Reputation to @ocean mauve

[unreal chasm]

you need to know how to jbeam

[wide depot]

no, not that but about nodes and strength

[unreal chasm]

probably not, you will learn at the same time

[wide depot]

alright much appreciated

[ocean mauve]

I would consider that to be part of "you need to know how to jbeam"

[wide depot]

i will just read some tutorials and see what i can do

[fleet nacelle]

is it worth making a patreon page?

[ocean mauve]

For mods? Depends, I'd say it's only worth it if a lot of people use your mods, or want to use wip mods

[alpine rivet]

its on iretr0x DFA Pack, the new version is paid, and i think that model is only on that but not sure

[tranquil burrow]

@dull grove can i join ur discord

[wide depot]

anything i've done wrong??

[ocean mauve]

Looks good. What's wrong with the mod then, it doesn't show up ingame or something?

[wide depot]

nope here take a look

[unreal chasm]

what is the problem ?

[wide depot]

i dunno. i added a sport air filter to the rb25de mod engine and it decided to not show up

[ocean mauve]

Have you double checked the slot name? Should be something like claria_engine, you'll be able to find it somewhere in the claria files

[unreal chasm]

oh ok

[wide depot]

just a sec
