[odd needle]

When i release the map fully i will provide the .blend file with all the resources packed so anyone that wants to modify it can do it at their own will

[maiden shard]

Inb4 I saw an automation gambler 500 submit in the main repo. Moderators are drunk I guess. I reported the mod and it immediately got deleted

[odd lark]

Does anyone have a good cars folder with decent cars in them

[fathom elm]

Is there a rain mod?

[frigid palm]

anyone have any idea why the KBI race 200bx is vibrating? It’s annoying

[dull jewel]

anyone have a mod of the monza circuit?

[strange sage]

stupid bar

[terse blaze]

theres mods to make rainy versions of certain maps. i know a friend of mine has made a few but im not sure how many have been posted. theres hirochi rainway, but it has some issues i think. my brands hatch port has a rainy version too, which seems alright. theres also a rainy nordschleiffe out there somewhere. just gotta look for them :D

[stiff lark]

Does this still work? https://www.beamng.com/resources/iyb-b-series-off-road-semi.12702/

[dapper smelt]

i mean,just download it and try it

[spiral oar]

i just got an idea for my next map bruh💀💀, but i cant fall trap to the neverending new project trap where u start a new project and forget about old one 💀💀

[native mulch]

I did that when I was playing in Unreal Engine.

[dusk crag]

Does anyone know if there's still a way to import street data (I think it was from OpenStreetMap?) as decalroads/meshroads?

I remembered there being an option like that in the level editor when I was messing around with it a 3-4 years ago, but now I can't find it anymore.

edit: I tried Googling it, but all I could find was a FAQ about BeamNG.tech, which says:

Is the OpenStreetMap importer available in BeamNG.tech? What other features are you working on?
The OpenStreetMap importer as it exists right now is only importing roads with no terrain or buildings. It’s in a really early stage.
But I can't find anything about it being a feature in BeamNG.drive whatsoever.
That does at least match with the funtionality the importer version I messed around with in 2019 or so had; that also only imported the roads themselves, however that was without a doubt BeamNG.drive and not .tech.

[native mulch]

I don't know, but I'm highly interested

[native mulch]

Please ping if you figure it out

[native mulch]

BTW depending on the area, I can get the terrain data if you are interested

[misty path]

are there any firwood police livery packs that actually look like rural police cars?

[maiden shard]

yeah there is made by scruffy

[misty path]

alright

i wonder why there arent any that use the existing firwood livery ingame

[maiden shard]

Scruffy517 https://www.beamng.com/resources/authors/scruffy517.379406/

[misty path]

wait arent his the ones that are usually just reskins of irl police liveries

yeah they are

[maiden shard]

nope he aslo made lore skins

[misty path]

the firwood one is just a reskinned pittsburgh police car

[misty path]

yeah the 2 firwood ones are reskins of irl liveries

man why are there no normal good firwood police liveries

[maiden shard]

he aslo made this. Is it a reskin? https://www.beamng.com/resources/2021-firwood-county-livery.16324

[misty path]

i dont think it has PBR

doesnt look like it does in the images

[maiden shard]

Yep it doesn't, I was just asking

[spiral oar]

i know there are ways to do that in blender, and then u can export from blender into beamng, but then u will have mesh terrain / mesh roads

[native mulch]

When you say mesh roads, do you mean like Beam world editor mesh roads? Or just using a mesh as a road?

[spiral oar]

blender mesh roads, .dae

[native mulch]

How detailed are they when you import them into Blender?

[spiral oar]

i think it will depend on the map/area quality

[native mulch]

I see

[spiral oar]

u use google maps or other data, and a tool can generate them

[native mulch]

Does the info you import into Blender usually have height data for the roads?

[spiral oar]

last time i used it, i think it was just a path, bezier curve

[dusk crag]

I know that's possible, but the one I'm talking about was a function in BeamNG itself; I hadn't even downloaded Blender yet back then

[native mulch]

More and more roads being mapped out.

[latent ivy]

anyone know where i can get ford explorer mod?

[tight blaze]

modland

[soft knoll]

NO

[latent ivy]

no

[soft knoll]

terrible site

[latent ivy]

where do i find one tho?

[soft knoll]

idk

[fading narwhal]

how hard making the car door openable is

i bought Civetta Mondello, but it seems to be pretty outdated and the doors don't open

[drowsy frost]

Author has been caught up with IRL, but is slowly working on it again

[fading narwhal]

so the update is coming

[drowsy frost]

It's being worked on slowly, yes

[fading narwhal]

Oh, okay

thanks ❤️

[drowsy frost]

Np

[misty path]

anybody know any mods of the old etk center and automation map?

[topaz token]

Cool idea i had: A bigger autobello stambecco truck that shares parts with it and has both military and super cheap civilian variations inspired by these trucks (AEC Militant, Mercedes L Series, Isuzu TX). maybe with a combination of an isuzu fascia/front end, mercedes bonnet/chassis/body, and AEC top half and windscreen etc and just for creative value adding some design ques from the stambecco

[spiral oar]

i am never making a city again and highways holy s###, designing a layout that makes sense is soo hard 💀💀💀

[stiff lark]

How about making a suburban ? That's easier right?

[spiral oar]

yea, just a grid

but suburbians are boring

[native mulch]

This will be my small town

[spiral oar]

i have to make 12 roads that connect to highway, this will take like 5 hours 💀💀😿😭

[spiral oar]

o, i thought ur map was only for cruising and roads, thats cool

[native mulch]

nope, gonna be a full blown map. I'm just focusing on the roads first with this being a car game and all.

[spiral oar]

looking at my map, i think my roads are too dense, too much of them, oh well

the "big city" i made, half of it is roads

[native mulch]

feel free to show screenshots

[spiral oar]

i have to connect some of these roads so they look bit goofy

the whole map (5 tunnels )

ignore the weird black lines, those were curves for my roads

[native mulch]

super cool. Thats a lot of work

[spiral oar]

idk if there is better way to do roads, but i had to spend like 6 or so hours connecting them all at the end 💀💀

here is what it looks like with preview terrain (not actual textures)

[native mulch]

looks like a cool high speed highway and a bunch of drifty roads

[native mulch]

You said you cant use world editor to make roads, so I guess youre doing it the best way you can

[spiral oar]

one benefit of making it in blender is that it was easier to make the highway and other parts of the roads

[native mulch]

Yeah I would say so

I'm gonna have to go in and make bridges and stuff

[spiral oar]

like guardrails and gutters, this way i already have lines they follow

but, when i finish i will have to like split the road in like 10 pieces or so for LOD's 💀

[jade briar]

how do you even do map mods im genuinely curious

[spiral oar]

all of this is done inside blender

[native mulch]

I do it all inside of the world editor in Beam

[vague jungle]

guys i have question, is it possible to make a map with someone else? Like 2 people makes a map. If yes then how to do it with someone?

[native mulch]

I will use Blender for external assets

[jade briar]

I dont even have blender

[native mulch]

you dont need blender

[jade briar]

how would you add time trials and such (I wanna port the Autopolis map from Prostreet)

yes I have a copy of Prostreet to port from

[native mulch]

As far as I know, you would have to work on it 1 at a time and send files when youre done with your part

[vague jungle]

oh

[native mulch]

in the world editor you can do that stuff

[jade briar]

how would I go about porting the model tho

and giving it collision

[vague jungle]

so if i would like to make a map with someone then he will have to make his part, i have to make my part and then he sends files to me?

[native mulch]

do you have a heightmap of it, or just the object?

[jade briar]

I have no clue cuz I have never done this before

[native mulch]

how are you separating it?

[spiral oar]

people have done other NFS before, so its probably doable but i dont think its anything easy, u would probably need to port it inside blender somehow, then as dae for beamng,but i think u will need to split it into lot of parts for LOD's and such cuz itll probably lag

[vague jungle]

him making buildings and i make map

like, i haven't started even im just asking to know because i would like to make my own map

[native mulch]

https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLhcsTBw4C3ZPY39JBUiogkWfIJ6UzZP_O

[native mulch]

I think you would make the map in Beam and he would make objects in blender

[spiral oar]

if u make like models in blender or something while he uses those assets in beamng, totally doable

[vague jungle]

k, thank you

[lyric cedar]

Gave +1 Reputation to @native mulch

[vague jungle]

thank you

also, how to make roads on map

[spiral oar]

best way would be to use the ingame mesh road system (i think?)

[native mulch]

[odd needle]

That looks really fun to drive around in! Good work

[forest mountain]

I wrote a script that tries to recreate flame tunes. The flames don't come out of the pipe quite right without new nodes in each of the exhaust jbeams, so this will have to work

[wise wraith]

Hello
ive been trying to get into creating car mods for beamng
can anyone here please guide me towards good tutorials to learn how to get started?

[terse blaze]

oh thats dope

[native mulch]

idk. How big is the BlankHeightmap.png?

[forest mountain]

😂

[jade briar]

is there a way that I can modifiy the direction of checkpoints on a time trial

[stiff lark]

How do I fix broken camera position?

[mint notch]

didnt even know the new lighting effects could do that lol

[jade briar]

also can yall not ignore me like you did last time maybe

[forest mountain]

I think I'm getting this dialed in. If anyone knows custom particles/emitter stuff and using it from lua, hmu. That would be the cherry on top

[fallow robin]

that actually looks good lol

you can ask someone who has experienced in lua like @terse blaze

[terse blaze]

Oh that's looking good, maybe some more randomness would help? Also, im comfortable but with lua but barely have any lua experience with beam, but i do know that you can just overwrite the particle stuff. I think its somewhere in the lua folder in your game install. Just use the same folder setup and slap your particles.json file in there and modify to your hearts content. I can provide some more detail tomorrow if you still need it :)

[odd needle]

Fortuna test #3: all buildings/groups in game

palmont university

[dark fable]

I want to make a mod for the wentward for an alternate bumper

I made the 3d models and saved it on the citybus.dae

how do i make it as a selectable part in game and as a seperate mod?

I fsomeone were to download the mod would they need to download the altered bus dae with the new bumper or is there an extra step

i am very new to this

Under citybus_bumper_f which is the item i modified there are all the nodes which i imagine are not the same as the edited version

but on a tutorial im watching the nodes are below in a seperate column

[forest mountain]

Yooo the Beam devs be wildin lmaooo
To use particles in lua code, you call it by a number id. Particle 69 sprays white drops

[languid timber]

Why'd you put a flamethrower in the back of that big'ol truck

[sick forge]

my first "mod" opel caliblra mesh slap on 200 bx

[signal falcon]

what i found help is if you clear the cache, you can do this by the menu that pops up before you click launch game. you can click on support tools and then clear cache. let me know if it works.

[dusky shadow]

does anyone have the scout? i want to test it out but im broke for the mod

[safe gazelle]

i combined the base and GTT fenders to make a gtt-width fender that accepts pop-up headlights. also made the GTT nosecone stretch a little to look better with the pop-ups. should i do anything else to follow up with this?

[terse blaze]

The rally spoiler fits the gtt rear perfectly, make that an option. I did that for one of my racing mods (with some added downforce admittedly) and it looks fantastic

[safe gazelle]

alright, sounds like a plan.

[latent ivy]

Are there any good NSX Mods out there?

[fast kernel]

That’s really interesting concept

@safe gazelle I wonder how your pop up GTT fenders would look with my GT-Aero kit

[safe gazelle]

it's the same width as the GTT fenders, just compatible with popup lights.

[fast kernel]

Should look really cool

As GT-Aero aimed to improve the aerodynamics and give a look of GTT

But not GTT completely

[latent ivy]

Wait, do people upload their cars from Automation onto BeamNG's modpage or something?

[maiden shard]

Beamng repo has a page for automation cars specifically

[maiden shard]

I remember seeing moderators approve automation mods for the main repo lol (they were deleted immediately)

[wise wraith]

this is cool

@sick forge where did you learn how to make this If I may ask
im trying to get into modding myself but cant seem to find good tutorials online

[sick forge]

friend

[wise wraith]

ohhokay

[sick forge]

i can show

[wise wraith]

I would love that

[wise wraith]

can you show me when you are available ?

[sick forge]

for me now its 11 am i will be home from work at 5

[terse blaze]

some people replied to my drafting mod post that now we just need tyre wear and thermals, and seeing as this still isnt a feature in beam (for good reasons of course, the devs have a LOT to do so we cant expect them to finish everything immediately :D), ive started making a mod for this:
https://medal.tv/games/beamng/clips/1d8ZCKxtoIuChS/d1337xnzYt8r?invite=cr-MSxwQXMsMTc3ODI3Mjg5LA

this is gonna be so hype for racing, this + drafting could really add something to the experience, especially with tyre wear and endurance racing

[quick pollen]

😳

This is insane

[terse blaze]

thanks, i hope it all ends up working out :D

[sick forge]

dm me

[quick pollen]

If it works your gonna change the whole racing « side » of beam

[terse blaze]

yeah hope so. the drafting mod i made a few days ago already has improved racing for me a ton, whenever i do multiplayer racing with friends

[quick pollen]

We just need more track focus car and its perfect

[terse blaze]

yeah ive dabbled in making car mods too, but i cant justify the time and effort to make a refined jbeam. but the latest update of the scintilla gt3 parts mod is incredible. v2 was already a big upgrade for realism, and v2.0.2 feels a bit too slidey compared to other sims, but its a very minor issue and everything else about v2.0.2 feels incredible so its 100% recommended for racing with

e'x and his team have done some incredible work on that mod, its amazing. its genuinely getting close to gt3 cars in other sims, feels incredible to drive on wheel

[quick pollen]

And they planned to make more gt3 :D

[terse blaze]

yeah im super excited too

[frank kelp]

Will share this here since it doesn't have enough progress done yet to justify making a thread for it

[neon magnet]

😳

[quick pollen]

Is that a Formula 4 ?😳😳

[frank kelp]

maybe

[quick pollen]

I hope so

GP explorer remake in beam

[wise wraith]

Alright Ill message you at 5.30 pm your time

[terse blaze]

wip ui stuff for my tyre thermals and tyre wear mod, yipee

[neon magnet]

Luuk out here just doing the dev's works

[quick pollen]

Drafting mod tyre thermals (maybe f4)

Beam is getting closer and closer to a racing sim

[terse blaze]

not even close :p this tyre wear and thermals system will be pretty simplified compared to what they would do

i was looking at the methods that are already exposed to VE lua, and theres a lot of detailed thermals related stuff there. it looks like when they eventually drop the official implementation, itll be very impressive, but for now, i just really want a mod that mostly does tyre wear and has some thermals just for fun, because me and some friends plan on doing some endurance racing and this really could add some extra depth

hopefully i can get a v1 on the repo this weekend :D

good fun to learn all this stuff tho, my drafting mod was my first like, lua mod for beam so far, and other than lacking documentation, its actually very enjoyable to code within beam, especially as someone who really enjoys lua regardless

[safe gazelle]

will cold racing tires have less grip?

[terse blaze]

yes, if you are above or below the optimal temperature you will notice a lack of grip, and worn tyres have less grip as well

https://cdn.medal.tv/ugcc/content-social/YfzcYlEGPA0s63MPyN0Smg.mp4?auth=exp=1686252600~data=MTc3ODI3Mjg5LDFkYWV1MU8wRXZscjNXLGZGTlZoYXdhZmw~hmac=804b2a1903619fcfd20254e7c0b0724c514ac3adb2630e12e2503977edd46bd8

above video is very low tyre temps and tyres worn down to 70%
video below is normal tyre temps + no wear:

[hazy granite]

there is any fix for this mod?

[neat meadow]

Do you have the fix on page 10 on the forum

[hazy granite]

in General Discussion?

[neat meadow]

Nah on the forums on the beam website

[misty path]

anybody know why a new east coast aint workin at all?

[solar eagle]

For the dummies mod, do I have to manually add them to every car I spawn? Is there a way to auto load dummies whenever I use a new car?

[fallow robin]

very impressive how are grip/loss and gain?

[terse blaze]

still heavily tweaking it, but its starting to feel pretty decent

[waxen cliff]

has anyone thought of making a corvette but like a Gavril remake

i also made a bigger turbo 200bx becuase racecar

[forest mountain]

I added some randomness to the flame tune. I had the vanilla afterfire particle effects (orange fire balls) layered in but they just stopped working

[waxen cliff]

ouuu are you going to make them bigger or like that

[solar eagle]

It sucks you cant have dummies loaded automatically whenever you spawn a new car

[forest mountain]

I would love to do custom particles like that but right now I don't know how to use the particle editor. So vanilla stuff it is

[waxen cliff]

ahh tru

[waxen cliff]

you can

only on the spawn car tho

[solar eagle]

What you mean?

So whenever I spawn a new car, I can have the dummies auto spawn in the car already? Because right now I gotta manually spawn them all the time.

[frank kelp]

that is not possible

[solar eagle]

Thought so

This game doesn't like ds4windows much does it 😆

[waxen cliff]

when you first load it you can have one you just have to make a custom preset then set as default

[solar eagle]

Yeah but then the vehicle is always the same.. thats why I was asking like, can we have it for any vehicle we spawn.

But yeah, oh well.

They got any speed boost mods for this game where you can just go super fast?

[frank kelp]

I mean it's a simulation game

but hey

here's something similar to what you're asking for
https://www.beamng.com/resources/arcade-simulator-style-nitrous-boost.21760/

[misty path]

anybody know why the "A New East Coast" mod doesnt seem to work at all

i installed the mod from the forums page, placed it into the mods folder

but it is not showing up at all, but the weirdest part is that the mod is 3 gigabytes

[woeful vessel]

does anyone know any good firetruck mods

[frigid palm]

Any mod maps with gates installed already? Setting them up is hell

[silent dune]

if you mean the gates that have physics setting them up via world editor is the easiest option for me

[frigid palm]

Thats why I asked for a map that already had them set up

[silent dune]

you wont find much which is why im saying the easy way to do it is via world editor

if you really want a gate this map has one setup https://www.beamng.com/threads/kardu-point-research-center-paid.92260/

[frigid palm]

HAHAHA paid map

[silent dune]

sorry i just noticed i miss interpreted your question. i now assume you mean your trying to make a map with the jbeamed gate already spawned in correct?

[frigid palm]

No no. I’m looking for already made mod maps that have these destructible objects set up

Map editor is strange and there aren’t many places in vanilla maps that the gates actually fit

[frank kelp]

kardu point is pretty much the only one

pretty revolutionary map if you ask me, worth the 4 euros

[frigid palm]

Any cool places in vanilla maps where they would fit thematically look like this

Lucas since I’ve already trusted you with my $3 for the picnic I’m gonna trust that this map is actually worth the money

[frank kelp]

definitely worth it imho

I'd pay just for the fact the environment is interactible

[frigid palm]

How interactable

[frank kelp]

you can literally open every door

it has working ladders too, destructible gates, etc

[frigid palm]

Oh. Uhhhhh how taxing is it on laptops?

[frank kelp]

depends on the laptop.

I doubt it's very taxing though

[frigid palm]

I have a Dell g15 core i5 rtx 3050 (Sue me) and 32 gb ram

[frank kelp]

yeah that's just fine lol

[waxen cliff]

wait what map

[frank kelp]

Literally 3 messages up lol

[hexed copper]

kardu point research map

and it costs 4.20+ euros

[woven herald]

@frank kelp Any ideas on my issue? In #modding-general

[frank kelp]

sorry but I have basically zero lua experience

[tired coyote]

Working doors, elevators, a gate to plow through, multiple areas to explore

[tired coyote]

yes

[balmy scroll]

there is this austrian village map in repo

but its not as good and as big as kardu point

but its freee

[frigid palm]

Yeah Austrian village is what sparked my requirement for gates

[rocky heart]

So, I have a diesel that revs to 2500 RPM. I cant get it to shift into second because the auto clutch just makes it ride the clutch so much in first.

Is there a way to change this?

[rocky heart]

"clutchLaunchStartRPM": ,
"clutchLaunchTargetRPM": ,

These worked.

[sudden ore]

Just make it rev to 8k rpm duh

Then u don’t need anymore gears

[rocky heart]

Oof, no. 😂

It's gotta be close to real.

[sudden ore]

Nah that’s real

[rocky heart]

😤

[sudden ore]

Ez

It’s called forcing ur turbo 400 trans to go from overdrive to 1st at 85 mph

[sudden ore]

My car decides when it wants to be a diesel

Sometimes compression ignition sometimes spark plugs

[rocky heart]

🤣🤣

[sudden ore]

Nah Fr tho

Sometimes the crankshaft will actually spin backwards for a few revolutions

[sudden ore]

I’m great at engines

[rocky heart]

Amazing. Make mine run better.

[sudden ore]

Aight bet

[rocky heart]

xD

[sudden ore]

What u got

[sudden ore]

What car u got

[rocky heart]

This little champ. 🤣🤣

[sudden ore]

Wdym it run weird tho

Im actually kinda Alr at carbies

[rocky heart]

Just idles rough. Sounds old. 🤣
Not sure if how it runs is normal just because it has no sensors or computers to help it run smoothly.

[rocky heart]

No carb. Is just simple diesel.

[sudden ore]

Goofy ahh lift pump then

What displacement?

[rocky heart]

Yeah, I believe so. All mechanical

[rocky heart]

Uhhhh..... I THINK 2.5?

[sudden ore]

Litres?

[rocky heart]

Yess. Is an i4

60 HP Max xD

[sudden ore]

Clean ur injector nozzles and check spray pattern it’s ez

[sudden ore]

Literally my lawnmower

[rocky heart]

It sounds like a farm tractor. XD

[sudden ore]

What year is it?

[rocky heart]

81-82

[sudden ore]

Holy

[sudden ore]

What model?

[rocky heart]

Austin FX4D

[sudden ore]

I thought they stopped making these in like the 60s lmao

[rocky heart]

1997

[sudden ore]

I guess they still made them to the late 90s

[rocky heart]

Yeah, they were bought out by different companies over the years, but kept them going.

[sudden ore]

Britmobile

[sudden ore]

That the only car u got?

[rocky heart]

To the floor, he's revved out at 55mph 😂

[rocky heart]

Nah. I have 3 others.

[sudden ore]

What u got

I have stereotypical American cars

[rocky heart]

Two 2010 Ford Crown Victorias, and a 2004 Pontiac Grand Am.

[sudden ore]

Weirdly mint crown Vic

[rocky heart]

The black one? XD I just sent it away for two weeks to have some undercarriage work done on it. I try to keep it clean.

[sudden ore]

It’s kinda like my suburban

One of the few survivors

I drive large iron ingots

I want to download some ramps from Beam Monsters. Where do I put the folder, so I can use them? Also, how do you save a map, so others can use it?

[odd oriole]

any good map mods that have a map similar to east coast usa?

I love forest maps

[pine bobcat]

Might this interest you? https://www.beamng.com/resources/itsyourboi-off-road.23780/

[terse blaze]

is it possible to get the friction coefficient for a groundmodel in VE lua? if its only possible with GE lua, thats acceptable too, but i really would prefer VE lua. i have the groundmodel ID but i cant find out how to read the values for that groundmodel now

[native mulch]

Depends on what quality you want, how much time you have, and what style you prefer.

I use mesh roads to fix the terrain, and to position my road decals. And then paint the terrain underneath the decals for the finishing touch.

[undone hollow]

Lets say i want to make a turbo kit , whats the like max amount of polys it should be? I use to be a fivem dev and wanna try this beamng stuff out I'm use with engine bays being like 200k poly lol

[native mulch]

I'm not sure what the game engine can handle, but it will probably depend on your system rather than the game engine.

[undone hollow]

ah, my laptops preety okay

mange to run on high att like 80 fps att 1440p

[native mulch]

You should be fine, I wouldn't do hundreds of thousands poly just for a turbo kit though. Im getting 5mil poly in frame on my full map at 80fps 1440p on normal.

I can't find any genuine developer quality car mods

Most people don't care about inconsistency, but I do

If someone knows some developer quality car mods then please tell me

[native mulch]

Not sure that people "dont care." I think its more of a time and skill thing.

[latent ivy]

I meant for example not adding openable doors or adding too much openable everything

[floral nymph]

any map builders here? quick noob question

is there an easy way to align assets on the ground? such as ground that has a slope without just rotating it?

like soemthing that will just snap it perfectly to the ground matching the slope?

[frank kelp]

yes

[frank kelp]

from here : https://documentation.beamng.com/world_editor/edit_modes/edit_object/

[native mulch]

this might help too If youre working with the barriers

[spiral oar]

world editor has some awesome tools

[floral nymph]

YOO, thanks!

[frank kelp]

Posting here again as I don't think there's enough progress to make a thread for it yet

@tired coyote your map mod, the paid one, messes up some dseries bumpers and makes the trim white

[tired coyote]

Are they always messed up or only on the map itself? Also could you tell me which bumpers are affected

[frigid palm]

No matter what map it’s on. I’ll test what bumper it’s on rn

So it’s ALL of the trim. The undersides of the bed and cab, and almost all bumpers

License plates too

[tired coyote]

and only on the d-series?

[frigid palm]

Yes as far as I’ve seen so far

Will test others

[tired coyote]

thats really damn interesting considering the only thing i have interacting with vanilla veicles is a config

have you tried safe mode yet?

[frigid palm]

shrug
Beamng is weird sometimes

I had white race tires due to an up to date mod for almost 7 months one time

[deep sierra]

anyone know of a rotary mod?

[swift harness]

Ibishu Signia (Paid mod), Ibishu Chisai, KLJP, Far i know but i think there is some more that has rotaries

[deep sierra]

dang the Chisai is insane

[prime palm]

KLJP has a rotary?

[weak bear]

is there a way to output tire pressures thru outgauge? i made a script with python to interpret outgauge data and interface it to a 2018 nissan maxima gauge cluster, i got most of it working perfect but id really like to get the tire pressure system to work. i have it all decoded in the script and i can set the psi to whatever and it shows, i just dont have access to in game vehicle tire pressures with the stock lua script.

next is getting lda/aeb/bsm working but idek if thats possible with this engine

or if anyone has a clue where i could grab these values from thatd be awesome, i should be able to implement it into the original outgauge lua script from there i just dont know where they are lol

[terse blaze]

i have never dealt with the outgauge stuff but if you can feed it data from VE lua, you can use the data found in wheels.wheelRotators

[odd needle]

Buy a vehicle at Palmont Motors...

[weak bear]

right now im just trying to dump the table to console so i can see it, this is the script i have

local function dumpTable(tbl, indent)
    indent = indent or ""
    for k, v in pairs(tbl) do
      if type(v) == "table" then
        print(indent .. tostring(k) .. ":")
        dumpTable(v, indent .. "  ")
      else
        print(indent .. tostring(k) .. ": " .. tostring(v))
      end
    end
  end
  
  if wheels then
    dumpTable(wheels.wheelRotators)
  else
    print("The wheels module is not available.")
  end

it always returns wheels module not available. is this the wrong way to access these?

i am calling it with dofile("lua/vehicle/extensions/print_table.lua")

[latent ivy]

🔥

[terse blaze]

i like that little function, i have pretty much an identical function for myself too, minus the indents :D

also, wheels are only available in VE lua, is this perhaps not truly VE lua? you must also have a car spawned obviously, but i assume you didnt forget that :p

[weak bear]

yup, jusdt the default gavril d seriesa

what is ve lua?? the vehicle sandbox lua vm thing?

[haughty vortex]

Anyone know a mod that could be causing this?

Its not just on this vehicle either..

[terse blaze]

oh sorry, it just refers to vehicle lua, versus GE lua which is game engine lua, which is like, a global state.
ve lua is like, its own entire lua environment per car, while ge lua is global

i have no idea where the outgauge stuff falls either, i havent looked into it much, i just wanted to give you a pointer on where most tyre related data is hidden :)

[weak bear]

i said a bad word and got automuted now i gotta retype it all 😭

[weak bear]

so i was looking at the console and noticed it says GELua(Sandboxed) < 'dofile(etcetc)', how do i run it as VELua instead?

[terse blaze]

honestly no idea, also relatable with that automute, i got automuted on modding for dummies because some of my variable names in a snippet awkwardly combined into profanity 😭

[weak bear]

rippp i just outright said it lmao

[terse blaze]

lmao

[native mulch]

[tired coyote]

BeamNG has a built in lua module for this, you can just use
dump()
to inspect userdata, tables and cdata

[deep sierra]

Ferrari swapped Sunburst?

[woven herald]

@tired coyote Where do I put those mods you made for vehicles? From the google drive link

[spiral oar]

in beamng mod folder

[woven herald]

Doesnt seem to work

The custom sports bike was from another site. The other ones just not showing in vehicles

Oh they are install files inside lol

Why default install is in program files? lol

[spiral oar]

uhhhhhhh

those mods are old maybe, also dont use worlds of mods, And DEF dont use mod installers

[nimble valley]

mod installer lol i remember those haha

[woven herald]

Well I cant find any other free motorbike mods.

Ah wait I found a site.

Ahh nevermind, its a paid mod.

[tired coyote]

Don't ever run this

Don't ever run any exe file shipped with a beamng mod

That installer is a confirmed virus

[tired coyote]

https://documentation.beamng.com/support/userfolder/
Into the mods folder in there

[woven herald]

Alright

Why is there two mod folder locations?

Ive been putting it in the game directory mod folder

steamapps\common\BeamNG.drive\mods This one.

[tired coyote]

...there is no game directory mod folder

It works because of how beamng handles files internally

[woven herald]

Well I been putting mods in there lol

[tired coyote]

But that's very much not where mods are supposed to go

[woven herald]

I swear I saw somewhere online to make a mod folder there.

[tired coyote]

And might cause issues with some as well

[woven herald]

Alright I'll put it in the right folder then.

AppData\Local\BeamNG.drive\0.28\mods < here?

Dunno why but I saw online to make a mod folder in the game directory 🤷‍♂️

I moved all the mods there now the mods don't show.. weird.

Put it back in game directory and now mods showing ..Im lost.

Ive got this file in the AppData mods folder db.json and it shows the mod files inside there/notepad. Im not sure how any of this works but yeah.

[tired coyote]

Yes
https://documentation.beamng.com/tutorials/mods/installing-mods/#manual-installation

[woven herald]

Yeah I moved the mods there but it wasnt showing in the game when I did that.

It was but it wasnt like loaded.

Man why does the game keep pausing by itself all the time.

I dont get it lol.. this game keeps pausing by itself over and over again. I dont think it likes controllers/ds4 windows.

[forest pelican]

I really want to find the btr 80 mod, I need it for something. Please if anyone knows a working mod it will help me so much!

I've been trying to find it for like a year now.

[woven herald]

Feels like if you go too fast or something the game pauses by itself a lot

[serene thistle]

has anyone made long pop up headlights for the bolide

instead of the fixed glass headlights they would be pup up

it would kinda look like the NSX

[forest pelican]

Does anyone have a working APC mod?

by the way ahhh yes

[runic axle]

cursed gamb car

still a wip

[rain juniper]

anyone want to help with 3d modeling for a mod Collab?

[serene thistle]

would love to but sadly idk how to model

[copper bane]

what ever happened to venzo, the one that worked on the fercia monza

and those prototypes of dynamic mud and rain on cars

[inland belfry]

Love it. Those Gambler cars are fun. I´m currently messing around with the JBX 100 using the Gambler 200BX as a base...and i really screwed the whole thing up....rear tires pop off when going in reverse and the engines goes kabloey after a few rounds. Might have something to do with the Diesel V10 i dropped in there 😄

[terse blaze]

Not sure but he seems very inactive, plus i think he got banned from the forums for stirring up drama and making alts. I asked him about his raindrop stuff but he didnt answer how he did it, but for the dynamic mud: its just an extra texture layer that he enables based on driving in mud

[cyan drum]

the rain thing is just an animated texture

[copper bane]

ah so that's what he got banned for

I hope someone remakes his dynamic mud mod

[terse blaze]

I tried doing the same thing with an animated texture, but its really hard to get it to be stable and high res enough. My beam refused to accept textures bigger than like 16k wide so its either very low fps or very low res

[terse blaze]

I might add it to my tyre thermals/wear mod, ive got the data needed anyway, but we'll see, long ways out + i might make it a separate thing

[copper bane]

nice

I don't think we'll see the fercia monza any time soon

[terse blaze]

Actually maybe its possible to have multiple animated materials and switch them out at runtime or something, just to fake it at least

Would it even be laggy to switch materials at runtime? Id imagine it could be laggy the first time because it has to load the textures into memory. But i guess with glowmaps and broken materials and such, it doesnt lag, so it shouldnt lag regardless

[copper bane]

yeah

I really do hope you make that dirt thingy an actual mod

[terse blaze]

Yeah i might so that, but my main focus rn is on the tyre wear mod. But ill see what i can do for you

[vague meteor]

Sadly, was so hype about the Farcia, it was a nice idea

[wild grotto]

its not seeing an release

it had potential, but its creator was…

[ashen flame]

@onyx widget ok how long until it goes poof

[copper bane]

yup

[copper bane]

nice, thanks

[lyric cedar]

Gave +1 Reputation to @terse blaze

[copper bane]

im guessing im not the only one who really/just wants to see this

[river wolf]

is there a e36 touring yet?

[copper bane]

could possibly add something similar for dirtiness (driving on sand or grass, maybe even water)

[ashen flame]

you're better off modeling your own interior if you're making a entirely different car

it's more than GTA'ing it

[sick forge]

opel (my car)

edited 200 bx

[ashen flame]

better off just modeling the inteior yourself then

the Vectra interior's wildly different

[sick forge]

calibra

[nimble valley]

😄

[ashen flame]

k

still a wildly different interior design tho lol

[sick forge]

il think ab it i dont have any xp in interior modeling

[ashen flame]

pulling a Rockstar and reusing interior models wouldn't look good

[sick forge]

maybie some day when i got skills

[ashen flame]

you should learn to make interiors, it's a useful skill to have

[sick forge]

well with a full time job i aint got that much motivation 😄

[ashen flame]

not only would it fit your car better, it looks better than stretching the 200bx meshes

[sick forge]

perhaps

[sick forge]

il just edit it to look alike

[errant fulcrum]

this has many diffrences, you would have to remodel the bigger part. using 200bx's isn't worth it

[sick forge]

i have skill issue

[errant fulcrum]

np, just practise

[sick forge]

time issue

[sturdy geode]

Is this a place where I can commission a mod?

[jade briar]

They don't take commissioms

[runic axle]

I was originally gonna chop the bluebuck up so much it looked like a cabover cab and put a massive v16 by 2 v8s slapped together but I felt it didn't fit the theme and it would be expensive and the whole point is budget for the irl event atleast

Very mad max though

I just gotta fix the jbeam and inside and it's good to go it handles surprisingly well

I haven't seen alot of entries which kinda makes me disappointed bc I like to see how creative people are

how do i do this in the console?

i need to run stuff in the console as VELua and not GELua

[nimble valley]

Imagine if someone modded fh5 gauges and hud into beam lol

i think it would be a really nice touch if possible

[nimble valley]

You can edit idle roughness but it wont be because of the engine itself just randomly generated i think.

[thorny rivet]

I tried that, it doesn’t generate the same effect, instead of doing that vrum vrum vrum sound, it kinda sounds more like errmmRumeERrrrMmERmm

[wicked egret]

does anyone have the map sekia hills?

[jovial hamlet]

so with this monster of a car

I gotta put all the nodes in place

then add transmission slots (For some reason it can drive with the 5 speed transmission but doesnt have any slots)

highly stock

in a way i kinda want to keep the engine how far it is foward

Does anyone know if there is any official addons to the procyon centauri? Like cut painted fenders and different bullbars and roof racks or something

[ancient lava]

is it possible to add snow "physics" to a map in the in game world editor?

[native mulch]

What do you mean physics? like the ground model or ground surface type?

[ancient lava]

surface type

[native mulch]

In terrain painter, you can choose what texture/materials you want as well as the ground model which determines the physics surface for the terrain..

[ancient lava]

this is all i see in the terrain painter

[native mulch]

You need a terrain to be able to paint the terrain.

[native mulch]

what kind of map you working on?

[ancient lava]

im trying to make the alivieska(my summer car) map into winter

[native mulch]

Usually ports don't use the Terrain inside of Beam. They just use models. Which means you can't terrain paint.

[ancient lava]

yeah im starting to think that too now

[native mulch]

In the material editor for each material there is a ground type option.

[ancient lava]

I see

[fleet pollen]

hey you only have two addons on your patreon you said every addon is available on the basic membership. i am starting to worry that this is a scam.

Autobello doesn’t have a radiator slot because it’s air cooled so you have to make your own

[hollow lagoon]

What is the best delorean mod? the one from 2fastracing or from lucasbe?

[drowsy frost]

Lucas by far.
I can list numerous things wrong with the 2fast one.

• Theres no proper interior, it's the old bolide one.
• Major spam of material issues
• Ripped model whereas lucas scratch made everything on his.
• The jbeam is atrocious on the 2fast one
• Knowing them theres probably something stolen within it.

It may have the BTTF stuff but it is by no means good whatsoever.

[hollow lagoon]

i didn't even know lucasbe made a delorean, they made videos only of the 2fast noe

[drowsy frost]

Because youtubers know they'll get more views because ooooo bttf

[hollow lagoon]

thanks

[dark tartan]

I suddenly had a terrible idea. How would i make the worst car mod ever?

Or map mod, either of the two.

I know it would in either need horrid collisions.

All kinds of sticky walls if it was a map.

Any ideas?

[fossil ore]

well what's the point

if you want terrible cars modland has plenty of them

[frigid palm]

Anyone know where the mini stock car went? Can’t find it on the forums

[dark tartan]

Because it would be funny (insert trollface)

Just something so horrid. Doesnt have to be based on something real.

[frigid palm]

remembered a mod I like
looks it up
unsupported
Mfw

Every time. Every time I try to find a mod I haven’t used in a while it’s always unsupported

[dark tartan]

Not fun.

[frigid palm]

sees a gambler mod
it’s a standalone car
Damnit

[dark tartan]

Oh yeah, i need to make something for that.

Dunno if i should make an automation car or a map.

[frigid palm]

Map. Automation cars are never really good due to their physics incapabilities

[dark tartan]

Guess that's true.

I am pretty experienced with one over the other though.

Plus, people really want me to make an automation car due to... Reasons.

Starts with better, ends with deals.

And they are boxes on wheels.

[frigid palm]

Ok but people don’t use other peoples automation mods. When is the last time you downloaded someone else’s automation mod?

Maybe it’s me but I have never downloaded someone else’s automation mod. I don’t even use my own

[dark tartan]

Good point, but since i make challenges i drive a lot of them.

Mine actually got a bunch of downloads when i posted them a long time ago.

Well, "a bunch" for me at least.

I dont really consider them "mods" though, to be honest.

good tesla mod anyone

[frigid palm]

@frank kelp What’re the chances the Delorean can get a Nos slot?

[rocky prism]

Are there any engine mods for the bolide that actually make it sound like the 80s Ferraris? There used to be a sound change when it was updated awhile back but now it’s back to the mustang sounding engine. I don’t think it fits very well with the car in my opinion

[void valve]

Anyone got experience with track mods, I wouldn't mind asking a couple questions while i battle thru one im doing (not very successfully) right now

[uneven rain]

Can someone tell me where the moving dummies are taken from?

[swift harness]

There is one on the forums by Innocentj0ker

[swift harness]

I don't think there is any good tesla mods for BeamNG, Most of them are poorly made meshslaps and they may contain viruses.

[open monolith]

true they all look like a turd

[swift harness]

Your better off going after mods on the official forums and repository then to go on some weird 3rd party Russian site.

[open monolith]

Im going to the repository

[swift harness]

I would recommend the Bastion EV mod for an example

[sudden ore]

why

[fervent crag]

It's likely as close to, for example, a Tesla Model S as you can get without crappy mods.
Also has tri motor config like the Plaid.

[swift harness]

Well, it's a electric version of the Bastion, There is some other electric car mods.

[sudden ore]

evs mid tho

[open monolith]

i have esbr 1000 mod

[maiden shard]

There is also eSBR 1000 that replicates Tesla Plaid into Hirochi SBR4

something odd is going on, no repo mods are being approved

[latent ivy]

you mean like it being outside work hours or it was just the weekend?

12 hours ago was the last mod update. If they work 9-5 there is more than a 12 hour window where no mods would be approved

[near osprey]

We are in the window right now.
I know the repo schedule very well

[zenith cloud]

You mean gt4?

[terse blaze]

my mod update got approved an hour or so after your message, has your mod gotten approved by now?

[near osprey]

I don't have a mod, I was just speculating

[terse blaze]

oh
why lmao

[near osprey]

I think KLJP held them up, Kuseo said they were reviewing the mod in depth

[terse blaze]

oh yeah i heard that that mod was causing some issues

regardless i assume its back to normal now, my mod has gotten an update approved 👍

[near osprey]

It went through

Do you have any info on when the beam MP changing tires plugin will be implemented?

[terse blaze]

do you mean the one i was talking about online? its prob gonna take a bit, i havent finished the basics of the tyre wear/thermals mod yet, ive got more stuff in the works (like tracklimits/lapcounter/qualifying/laptimes/sector times/etc) for racing thats a bit more important and ive got some non-beam stuff that i want to code still as well

maybe itll happen next week somewhere? ive got a lot of time rn at least

[vivid shale]

so many mods I wanna make / wanna see made

1st and 3rd generations for the vertex

Aerostar (ever since my aunt got one and got rid of it after a couple months because it was leaking all over)

I just wanna see more lore-friendly versions of real cars I've been in or been interested in tbh

maybe I should get good at blender

so I can make them happen

[native mulch]

3.2 miles (5.1km) of gravel rally goodness.

Hello, I have a beginner question: I found a 3d model I'd like to imprt into beam but don't know where to begin. Is there a good video tutorial on the topic? Thanks!

[frank kelp]

there is no such thing as "importing" a 3D model into beamng

making a vehicle mod can take months, because of the way beamng simulates them as the sum of their parts instead of just a solid block with wheels

[low bear]

Okay. So it must always be a ground-up model? In that case I can find tutorials with that in mind; thanks 🙂

[frank kelp]

Doesn't have to, but it's always recommended

since you need detailed underbody and engine models that you can't find on most models online

as well as a low-ish poly count to avoid spiking when the mesh gets deformed

[low bear]

mm good point, That would in fact be an issue with the model I wanted to use. It's a good opportunity instead to make a more beam-lore-friendly version of the car.

Was thinking a Studebaker Avanti. In fact i've even drawn one in the past that's a not real sort of verion

see here:

Thank you again for the advice

has anyone seen a good rally map, im to lazy to find one

[maiden fog]

How can I change muffling for car?

First is ETK I series, than goes R34. I must say right away that the sound of ETC is not louder than my R34, ETC can be heard further, it's in the muffling parameter.

[frank kelp]

I'm pretty sure that sound distance is embedded in the sound files and can't be edited

[maiden fog]

The sound sample is the same

Here I changing muffling for R34

[red arrow]

Maek covet sedan

[frank kelp]

I assumed a R34 would be using a V6 sound not I6 lol

in that case it's most likely in the engine .jbeam file, it can also be edited by the exhaust's jbeam though

[maiden fog]

R34 used the same sample as ETK I

I6_2

I can't find muffling in engine.jbeam and exhaust.jbeam

[frank kelp]

I can assure you it's there

[maiden fog]

So find it

[frank kelp]

excuse me?

[maiden fog]

If you assure me that it's there, then screenshot this. Because I have not found.

[frank kelp]

this is what you're looking for in the exhaust .jbeam file

really had to make me open up my editor to get this when you could've pressed Ctrl + F to look up "muffling"

[maiden fog]

I changed it,nothing happened

Modding in BeamNG is hell 😥

[frank kelp]

0.0 is full muffling, 1.0 is no muffling

[turbid bane]

yo, can i post in this channel some side modeling car?

[jade briar]

question. Since the amount of mods effects how the game runs, could you trick the game into thinking you dont have a lot of mods by packing them into folders for certain kinds of mods, rather than all seperate

[silent dune]

yea i dont see why not

[turbid bane]

nice

7,5k tris so far

[silent dune]

oh im glad you posted it now it looks really good

[fallow robin]

now sub divide 20 times

then its beam ready

[turbid bane]

[onyx zephyr]

Can someone mod the gravil-b and give it a huge tow rig i wanna be like heavy d sparks on sundays for sometime LUL

Please 🙂

[spiral oar]

[turbid bane]

u meant average modland mod lmao

[spiral oar]

[spiral oar]

lowest poly ammount of all modland mods

[elder stump]

?

I already moved them and they didnt work

[fallow robin]

so much better😩

mmm waiter more polys please

[jade briar]

cough

[frank kelp]

it's not the amount of mods it's the amount of content inside them

[latent ivy]

we have to appreciate modders like you for stuff that you guys doing

[frank kelp]

if I put 30 cakes inside 1 bag I still have 30 cakes

and a heavy bag

[latent ivy]

this m4 broke my game that i have no sounds, nice

@karmic crescent im not sure, but i think that spoolin used your models too

like steering wheel with LED

[slate raptor]

I want it

[glacial yew]

you don't, it's awful

[latent ivy]

get this instead https://www.beamng.com/threads/early-access-paid-ibishu-covet-truck-covup.91852/

gaming fender

[slate raptor]

no :)

[jade briar]

idk how Beamng did stuff tho, was just wondering. The only issue I have really is the loading times for the vehicle selection menu

[latent ivy]

alright im already tired by checking this trash, also i dont want to mess up the chat

[zenith cloud]

beasutiful flow bro, immaculate skill

[karmic crescent]

thank you for the info
i think yes these are my custom made shiftlights
could be seen on the texture files of them cuz i scratched these

but i can't do anything against that if he did

[turbid bane]

i hate spooling, bro literally does worst mods possible and gets 10k $ per month

[karmic crescent]

what ? 10k ?

[turbid bane]

yeah

he got 894 patreons and his cheapest tier is for like 10-15 dollars dont remember

13 dollars yeah

[karmic crescent]

😵

[turbid bane]

smh

[karmic crescent]

tzz .. every of these mods are just crap

[turbid bane]

exactly, he absolutely doesnt deserve it

[karmic crescent]

or stolen

[tight gull]

Yeah, wayy too much imo, I think they should be halved in price at least

[turbid bane]

imo its not even worth a buck lol

[spiral oar]

i should become beamng modder as my daily job sheesh

[turbid bane]

tbh it just makes me want to drop everything and do same like spooling but i do not want a downsize to that level

[latent ivy]

nah, they shouldnt even exist

[karmic crescent]

i tooked my whole gumroad down cuz i can't update all my stuff yet and i won't sell broken / outdated stuff
to people, but that is crazy. on the other end you should think off that it has a reason .. people maybe like these stolen / bad mods
otherwise they would not support it

[turbid bane]

yeah but how can you like something like that

tbh it just feels like 884 patreons are frmo his money

[tight gull]

Lmao, honestly, I spent all morning looking for those sema trucks on questionable sites, and boy was I disappointed, not bad looking but structures are very weak, cant go over small rocks even with soft suspension without wheels breaking off

[latent ivy]

these mods are just good for screenshoot(even not always cuz almost everytime they look disgusting)

[tight gull]

Now I came here for some possible light modding help

[latent ivy]

i wanted to try modding, but i stopped on learning blender

[foggy pike]

Hey guys. Just wondering if there's a way to fix missing mod steering wheels myself

[silent dune]

dudes making minumum 9k a month

[sharp sierra]

ok

[karmic crescent]

if u would open the mods files >>

1. import the cars DAE file into blender
2. open the "steeringwheels.jbeam" and look for this line >

it may be named different as mine and all that, dont care about it
the stuff i marked is the name of the "mesh" (3d object which gets loaded)
check now the name of the steeringwheel in blender and compare it,
if it's not the same then just rename the jbeam and save it. it should work then

if not, there's another issue. hope it's understandable

[latent ivy]

ugh, no e34

[kindred dragon]

anyone know any good koenigsegg mods? just wondering

[latent ivy]

unfortunately, there is no quality koenigseggs

[fallow robin]

there is one

[karmic crescent]

sure no problem

[whole geyser]

Does anybody have any knowhow about possibly making a pit speed limiter? I have absolutely no idea how to make mods. It could be a customizable speed, likely in the tuning menu. A key bind could toggle the speed limiter. Throttle, brake and steering are all still done manually, like normal.

If anybody thinks they can help, ping or DM me.

[jade briar]

best solution is to use the Cruise control app, set it to your pit speed and it will drive at that speed

[frank kelp]

@terse blaze sounds like something you could make for your beammp stuff

[whole geyser]

It is intended for that. I host a small racing club.

That's what I want it for.

[terse blaze]

Not a bad call. In r&r we used to have a pit limiter but i think it worked with lua triggers and caused major desync, so i was planning on making something like this regardless

And it would fit right in with my wip tracklimits/lapcounter stuff :)

@whole geyser maybe in the next 1-2 weeks you'll something appear here or on the forums about an overall simracing mod/beammp plugin setup, once its mostly working. Cant promise anything when i have plenty to do on my tyre wear/thermals mod, but i really want to get this done in 1-2 weeks anyway for an 8 hour endurance race my friends are hosting. So keep an eye on the forums and the mod channel here :)

[whole geyser]

Alright.

@terse blaze Also, AMAZING job on the drafting and tyre wear mod. It's revolutionizing BeamNG if I am honest. I am using both for all my races!

I will keep my eyes open on the forums!

[terse blaze]

Thanks! Have you seen todays drafting mod update? Absolutely critical for bigger grids, we found out the other day that due to a small bug it just broke on big grids 💀 but thats fixed now

[whole geyser]

Oh it got updated today? I didn't see that. What was changed?

[terse blaze]

Just fixed it for larger grids, thats it

I personally really enjoy where the drafting mod is at right now, so im splitting my time between non beam projects, my thermals/wear mod and my wip simracing mod stuff

[whole geyser]

Nice.

If you want some feedback, I suggest making dirt, grass, sand ETC create less heat. I was racing with the Dunekicker and the rear tires got so hot really fast in the dirt. Just a suggestion.

[fallow robin]

yeah its a bug with the current released version

[whole geyser]

Ah ok.

[fallow robin]

yeah should be fixed with the bext update

[whole geyser]

Awesome!

[terse blaze]

Yeah offroad is an absolute no-go atm, but its at least planned as a future update. I really like rally too (although i barely do any) and i kinda want my mods to just be "install, enable and forget about them" type stuff. Freeroam should be viable at some point, id love that

[whole geyser]

Makes sense.

[boreal brook]

I don't really like asking for mods, but here I am anyway...
Does anyone know of a good interior mod for the Vivace / Tograc?
I don't really like any of the stock ones

[fallow robin]

no wonder he doesn't care about feedback

suckers will pay for it either way

he literally gained patrons

[hollow citrus]

Who's this? Spooling?

[fallow robin]

yeah

[rocky mason]

I'm gonna be honest, I would pay for them, but only for YouTube content. Its fun to make BeamNG content on real cars, especially cool cinematics

Hate me if you want, but real cars in Beam are cool

[pastel beacon]

does anyone know how to fix the buggy race interior in the ibishu signia or who I can talk to for help?

[hollow citrus]

Nah I'm not gonna cry over you wanting to spend your own money like most people in this community

[rocky mason]

Thank you for being sensible

[open monolith]

guys how do i install a mod and put it into beam ng

[hollow citrus]

Google:

You also seem like a visual learner, YouTube is a great resource 😃👍

[open monolith]

ok i got it now

time to steal andrew tate's bugatti

[polar cedar]

clear cache https://documentation.beamng.com/support/launcher_support_tools/clear_cache/

[pastel beacon]

yup did that and it worked, thanks!

great mod btw it has some insane detail and I am really enjoying it

[polar cedar]

glad you enjoy it, thanks :)

[quasi wyvern]

hello

[calm zinc]

anyone know how or who i can talk to about making scripts for my server?

[terse blaze]

if you need beammp scripting help you should probably go to the beammp server, they have a channel dedicated to server scripting

[slate raptor]

Again, asking what mod these aero things are from

[severe shuttle]

Probably the dfa pack

[drowsy frost]

Theyre cool if they're done well. Spoolings are not and buying them is a monthly subscription which will drain your wallet faster than you can say " man these mods suck ".

[turbid bane]

imo monthly paying just doesnt have sense, what if you gonna go on vacations for a month? oh well you prob wont care cause anyways you will get the money

[hollow helm]

going to ask this for both the **Modders and the actual ** Developers.I am a 3D animator and artist,i want to take advantage of BeamNG's physics and export things like car crashes,and then render those in my 3D software.Would that be possible? Something like baking a simulation.

[smoky patio]

From a modder, you can use the GLTF Exporter to export the meshes of crashed cars and import them into Blender.

You can save the materials as PNG and put them into blender too.

[jade briar]

I have now adapted myself to this way of typing because its both funny and has personality

it is so impractical and slow
