[quick pollen]

Hard suspension system or maybe power/weight ratio or aero

[nimble valley]

making a fantasy car is easier because they know nobody can say "this isnt supposed to be like this" because its a fantasy car so nobody knows how it should be like lol

[cyan drum]

don't download mods from there

[quick pollen]

Thats why I’m saying that if dev make a lore friendly race car it could be nice

[cyan drum]

only the official page

[nimble valley]

oh yea but i think the devs could do a nice Ferrari 312 T2

[quick pollen]

But tires and aero needs to be rework thats maybe why there is no race cars lol

[nimble valley]

its not that complicated from the 1970s

race cars were much more primitive back then and they relied more on engine power

[quick pollen]

Yeah and weight

[nimble valley]

which is why i love them and they sounded so damn good

[quick pollen]

Big spoiler big power and thats all

[nimble valley]

yea lol the lotus 49 was 600 kg and had 500 hp lol

rocketship with no safety so crashing meant death in most cases.

[quick pollen]

Yeah

But 312T or whatever f1 from this year can be awesome

[nimble valley]

yea

they are also not that rigid so it fits beamngs soft body engine

[quick pollen]

And suspension are not like recent one so

[nimble valley]

yes so it can be done

the one i most want is the lotus 49 for that insane acceleration speed and sound.

[quick pollen]

I prefer the one with big spoiler and intake (lotus 49c ?)

[nimble valley]

yea could be later model

1970s evolution of the 60s car

[quick pollen]

Ye

[nimble valley]

1940s and 50s race cars were a bit weird but still fun.

[quick pollen]

Also car from 24h of lemans can be really cool

[nimble valley]

yea

[haughty jewel]

audi r8 lmp my beloved

[nimble valley]

oh god

[quick pollen]

Or gt40

[nimble valley]

yea dream

doesnt matter which gt40 also they were all awesome

[quick pollen]

Yeah

This is perfection

Spaceship

[viral agate]

Dino 240sp is better

[nimble valley]

917K

[quick pollen]

Yeaaah

[nimble valley]

dino was nice too

[quick pollen]

Mazda 787b is 😮‍💨

[jade briar]

Lotus Doorstop Turbine car

thats what we need

[quick pollen]

Any f1 that don’t have a recent suspension system

[severe goblet]

[native mulch]

Please stop posting random emojis.

[rigid ledge]

hi

[polar roost]

anyone have some good wheel packs?

[nimble valley]

any race car before 1970 is nice

[jade briar]

you said any racecar

[nimble valley]

lmfao

[nimble valley]

i said any race car made before 1970 lol

even before 1980 would do also

and after 1950

[sullen lance]

tryna make a 4 seater scintilla

front plates or no?

[potent rose]

It looks so good already, I’m so excited!

[frigid palm]

@stray lake
How possible would bundling the garage+required lifts/dyno into one mod be?

[nimble valley]

6.4 hemi v8

[fallow robin]

do you play with stereo headphones on?

[nimble valley]

this time it was on yes

for some older sounds its better with it off

[flint fern]

@frank kiln I was just wondering if that one car bomb mod that you made for CarMighty's newsiest upload where he recreates the movie "Speed" in Beamng drive. Will that ever become an official published mod?

[nimble valley]

but i had my pc volume at 100 maybe thats why

[fallow robin]

i like it is there a difference between the 6.2 and 6.4?

[nimble valley]

finally a 6.4 hemi sound for beamng

[fallow robin]

aside from displacement

[nimble valley]

i dont know actually

probably but i like the 6.4 more

[tight walrus]

The 6.2 is in the hellcat and the 6.4 is in the scatpack. That is the only difference I know other then horsepower and displacement

[latent ivy]

chicken barbie

[midnight wren]

That sounds awesome

[latent ivy]

can somebody make me a simple 2018 kia soul :D

[civic sage]

bro thinks he the gemera (cool project)

[frank kiln]

Yeah i plan to, I'm at worldrx atm so not gonna be this week haha, but I'll try getting it out soon

[rose tree]

are there any good tokyo ringway maps?

[gaunt marlin]

yup

[dapper smelt]

Like the Wangan?

[rose tree]

yeah sure, ive already received two maps now

wait nvm they're both the same map

[dapper smelt]

[solar jasper]

bought for 15€ the front panel of a BMW E30 in (almost) perfect conditions and have managed to make all the lights and gauges work with an arduino and relays... time to make it work with OutGauge

[terse blaze]

Thats kinda sick

[solar jasper]

yeah i was hoping it didn't use CAN for communication as CAN buses are a nightmare

[trail ingot]

@solar jasper

[solar jasper]

the seller actually had two to sell, but i only got one as i didn't even know if it was like possible

[trail ingot]

@solar jasper

[solar jasper]

yes thats me

[trail ingot]

yes

do you know how to download microsoft store

[solar jasper]

this is the thing

[trail ingot]

wth???

thats how you download microsoft store?

[solar jasper]

i need to get a bunch of relays, write the rust code and then hopefully it all works flawlessly

[trail ingot]

WTH

[solar jasper]

can you stop please ty

[terse blaze]

Ronaldo is off his rocker

[trail ingot]

..

wdym

[terse blaze]

You gotta 3d print a little dashboard piece to clip it onto your wheel, would be sick

[trail ingot]

what do you mewn

i just got this random server to ask how to download microsoft store

[terse blaze]

Can u ask somewhere else :)

[dapper smelt]

Wha

[solar jasper]

i unfortunately do not have a wheel yet, i had an old wheel i made years ago following a super old 1990 guide and a game port, but i don't have it anymore, and the next step would be to make one (if i can get my hands on an original BMW E30 wheel it would be super cool as i'd have matching dashboard and wheel)

[dapper smelt]

How do you not have microsoft store
ITS INCLUDED WITH WIN 10

June 9 2023

:sus:

[terse blaze]

Idk what sorta budget you have but a tmx or t150 is a "cheap" way to get a decent wheel and theres guides online to mod it with custom wheels

[solar jasper]

my budget is zero, unfortunately

i have a bunch of microcontrollers to make hardware and stuff but yeah

[terse blaze]

Makes sense

Ive got a few arduinos and pis too but never know what to make with it, im more of a software guy

[solar jasper]

well since i dont have the hardware to programmatically talk to this, as i need an IO expander and a few relays (it's all 12V stuff), i'll start with the PC software part

[terse blaze]

Outguage is pretty easy to interface with so should be smooth sailing

[solar jasper]

yup, i have a few ideas to make this plug and play

i'll write an OutGauge rust library and then since it's UDP i'll try making the microcontroller act as a network device to access directly the UDP API without any additional PC software

this shouldnt be TOO hard, in theory at least

[terse blaze]

If you write that rust lib, publish it, id love to use that too

Rust so good 🙏

[solar jasper]

yup i love it especially for embedded development it's a breeze

[terse blaze]

Havent used it for that yet, college wants us to use c++ lol

[solar jasper]

painful

embedded rust is so good

all crates work out of the box with almost all boards because of a standard interface

for example like if a crate works with a specific I2C device, it accepts an I2C bus struct, which is standardized across all boards

[solar jasper]

made a basic OutGauge rust crate, let's test it

[hushed venture]

at least show a picture

[solar jasper]

heres a picture of my test setup lol

[terse blaze]

Would it be possible to support tokio and their socket stuff, so its an async library?

Shouldnt even be too much work i think

[solar jasper]

yes yes the crate at the moment is just the struct

ill make 2 features

the async default and the blocking optional so that you dont need tokio and mio

e.g. embedded

[terse blaze]

Awesome

[wise wyvern]

Is there a mod for the new 2023 m2?

[solar jasper]

beamng seems to like crashing on my system now for whatever reason

before i get the crate working i need to figure this stuff out

[solar jasper]

the crate works

[solar jasper]

perfect, now with some rust code we can finally get all the info we may want to show on a display

i need to make now the async code and i need to pretty it up for release, like turning the light bit field into a proper bit field

[terse blaze]

Got a repo for the crate lena?

[hollow mango]

Heey im pretty new to beamNG, and i'm trying to make my own mission with AI racers, im following a tutorial in which you could pick "provided vehicle" in the mission editor settings, but i don't havbe that option myself, am i missing something? (sorry if this is the wrong channel for this btw, not sure if making missions counts as modding or not in the BeanNG community) Thanks 🙂

supposed to show up here but i dont have that option in the editor :/

[terse blaze]

Perhaps u will find more luck in #modding-general

[solar jasper]

not yet, was fighting zram as my system was quite unresponsive, now i'll pretty it up a bit

[grim cloak]

I only have 2 hours of Blender and I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing.

[haughty jewel]

Just like me fr
(I have 400 hours on it)

[solar jasper]

https://github.com/adryzz/outgauge-rs

i need to make it actually use bit fields for the light bit field and stuff

and make the nonblocking client

[grim cloak]

not really the same number

[terse blaze]

Awesome, thank u

[lyric cedar]

Gave +1 Reputation to @solar jasper

[solar jasper]

have made the nonblocking version but i need to find a way to only link tokio for the nonblocking example

[solar jasper]

alright it works perfectly

funny thing is my hardware can only display up to 7000 RPM and 240 km/h

oh, the video is loud as i have nice speakers

[manic sphinx]

I had this idea some time ago. Take your time and make it great

[terse blaze]

Specify the dependency as optional, then add tokio as a feature to your blocking feature i think

[solar jasper]

yeah tokio-macros doesnt wanna import in the example tho

[terse blaze]

Also very hype it works!!!

[solar jasper]

funny how this all started when the guy sold me this thing for 15 bucks

[elder wind]

Is there a 4 door ibishu hopper mod?

[solar jasper]

theres a BMW E30 mod for BeamNG! i can actually drive the car with the real display thingy

[worn fable]

There was but it was funky looking lol

[sinful geode]

Chassis progress for the Toyota proto-TT is shaping up nicely

[kind forge]

2 hours

[solar jasper]

got the async one to finally build, i had to restructure the entire thing with a workspace

[terse blaze]

lmao

[solar jasper]

pushing right now

[terse blaze]

very hype, cant wait to try it out

[solar jasper]

also it could very much be PnP

since BeamNG connects to your own socket, if this device shows up as a network adapter, all you have to do is enter the (hardcoded in the device) address and port and thats it

[terse blaze]

personally im just going to use it purely from software for now and not with actual hardware, but good to know

actually i might just 3d print a little dashboard thingy, would be sick to have

[solar jasper]

alright

cleaned up a lot and compromised (the blocking example will still compile tokio because dev-dependencies

[sullen lance]

im tryna make a 4 door scintilla like the koenigsegg gemera

[kind forge]

Nice

[sullen lance]

messy but ill fix that

btw full credits for the drawing to @arctic night

[elder wind]

Give

[haughty jewel]

May i ask how the shading got that bad

[sullen lance]

this is my 1st mod so i partially have no idea what im doing

[haughty jewel]

Fair but like
I dont even know how you managed that lol

[sullen lance]

where is the shading? will that impact the model in game?

[haughty jewel]

that
and yes it will look horrendous ingame

[sullen lance]

ok i will make the shading better

[worn fable]

It’s on the forum just search 4 door hopper on google

[rain bison]

How can i export my custom made map to public? So my friends can try my map.

[frigid palm]

Longer.

[frigid palm]

That transition actually looks nice in concept

The shape is nice just gotta be smoothed

[sullen lance]

right now i need to get it into my vehicles folder, no idea how 💀

[frigid palm]

Wait

Oh no. This isn’t a standalone car is it?

[sullen lance]

what just 1 config?

[frigid palm]

It’s parts for the base scintilla correct?

[haughty jewel]

i think they're just confused on how to get this on the scintilla

[frigid palm]

Oh ok

[sullen lance]

yeah i need help ._.

[frigid palm]

Uhhhhhhh……. I really should learn modding

[haughty jewel]

would not recommend

[sullen lance]

how do i get into the version of the game in my files?

i need to acces my 0.28 folder

[haughty jewel]

also through documents
you dont want to do it through steam

[sullen lance]

how do i do it through steam? just incase

[haughty jewel]

no like dont
altering game files is just a bad idea
i learnt that the hard way over a year ago

just look up a tutorial or something

[sullen lance]

i think i might take i little break and ocme back to blender tmmrw

fix the bits then import into the game

im gonna play beam for a bit

ive decided im gonna push the scintilla back and do soemthing easier

[serene thistle]

does anyone have a good formula 1000/2000 mod?

except for the formula bee

[fallow robin]

i would recommend stretching the faces instead of how you did this

[warped locust]

Does anyone remember the name of that youtuber who would monthly post the best mods of every type?

[keen lava]

im having issues with nodes and beams.... idk how to move or make or any of that this is what i have so far and would love some help on it if not i can just keep watching youtube vids

the orange bars are suppose to be supports but they are like jello

[thorny goblet]

Is imola the main track you are testing with

[orchid osprey]

The spare fell off and it managed to get stuck on the rl wheel. it looks like a dually and now the real rl wheel isn't touching the ground, and therefore no tire wear

[stray adder]

Best Mods?

[jaunty tree]

Y3F Z/28 body kit scratch made

[stray adder]

nice

[whole geyser]

I have had a pretty (in my opinion) genius idea for a mod. Thing is, I have no idea how to mod and don't know where to start. Theres this Youtube channel I watch, called "Matts Offroad Recovery". They have a few pretty cool vehicles that would be pretty cool to have in the game. Here are some pictures.

Here is their 3 main vehicles.

The Banana. (Jeep)
Morrvair. (Chevy Corvair)
The Wrecker (Custom I think International truck cab.)

These things are put to some serious work and REALLY need to be made into a mod for BeamNG.

https://www.youtube.com/@MattsOffRoadRecovery Link to their channel. They got regularly uploaded videos.

If anybody knows how to make a vehicle mod. DM or ping me. I would love to help where I can, if I can.

[frank kelp]

I test with a bunch of tracks but I do use Imola yes

[winter matrix]

i really like the wrecker and would like to see it in game too ^^

[whole geyser]

Yup.

[terse blaze]

how much are you aiming for realistic handling? im desperate for more well-built car mods that are actually fairly realistic
also will this be a paid mod? would be sad for multiplayer racing but understandable for the amount of effort put in

[whole geyser]

Do you know how to make mods?

[frigid palm]

Could you link the tracks you use for testing?

[winter matrix]

not really i can do like copy an engine part and modify that pretty much all X)

[whole geyser]

Ah ok.

[winter matrix]

i tried taking the exhaust from semi to d serie and now im stuck with node location

[whole geyser]

Hm alright.

[winter matrix]

if i unstop the game it fall off xD

[whole geyser]

Well it at least looks cool.

Is it just not attatched or something?

[winter matrix]

yeah ^^

[whole geyser]

I'm not sure how you would attatch it if I am honest.

[winter matrix]

• i need to modify this part for both to align it with everything

[frigid palm]

Anyone got a link to nordschleife?

One that isn’t stupid modland

[whole geyser]

Go to 2fastracing.

Bruh, I just got a warning for posting a link to 2fastracing.

[winter matrix]

an other one i wanna see too is that from hobbs & shaw kinda like it

[grim cloak]

it's stock officer

are you sure about that?

-No

[frank kelp]

I'd say it's 80% accurate right now comparing it to the iRacing F4 and real-life footage
I'll be getting help from a real F4 driver for handling when I have more stuff done
Also no this will be free

[frank kelp]

No as there are a lot and I'm not at my PC
They're pretty easy to find, I mostly use Imola, Spa, and the nurburgring

[frigid palm]

Ah ok. Downloading Nurburgring now since god it’s beautiful

Thanks

[terse blaze]

both of that is fantastic to hear, cant wait to try it then

i havent used the f4 in iracing but that sim feels great, hope this turns out fire

[orchid osprey]

I want to try modding, so what programs do i need for modding?

I want to make a tracked t-series and wigeon

oh just realized how hard modding is, i'll pass

[fallow robin]

💀

[arctic roost]

bro has his boot open

[karmic sentinel]

does anybody know where to get a gavril d customization mod? like, custom facias and stuff

[barren cypress]

Anyone?

[keen lava]

frame is jello how do i fix it

[young cove]

Hi
Can i ask how to put custom tachometer here

[strange ginkgo]

NOTE WIP, Not final release (by far lol)

[vocal cobalt]

Don't download the 2fard racing one, it's low quality and is stolen (as with anything 2fard does)
Use this one instead:
https://youtu.be/bBluGKs1wjs

Imola and Spa also
https://youtu.be/gl59selyfkk
https://youtu.be/5rb3y4EerpI

[sterile hearth]

where do i get this mod g?

[strange ginkgo]

pretty sure its kljp

[dapper smelt]

KLJP

[vagrant quail]

Is there a place where one could go to request a mod? (I would like to make it myself, but haven't the time for now 😦 )

[grim cloak]

The Wagon mod is kljp but the engine mod is my mod which I am currently finishing

[late cargo]

So, I'm working with parts from the Covet.dae. Why is there a mesh for a SOHC Head for the Mid-Engine Covet, when you can only use the DOHC engine?

[oak flume]

@frank kelp How many horsepower will that open-wheeler you are making have?

[frank kelp]

160

[oak flume]

nice

[frank kelp]

same as real F4 cars
dry weight is 580kg

[serene thistle]

has anyone made a fake taxi skin of this van?

[stiff lark]

???

[teal plover]

https://i.redd.it/p5bl8b6uc4581.jpg anybody knows how i could do something like this?

[zenith cloud]

💀

Somebody needs to confiscate the owners money because nahh

[fallow robin]

unless it was for halloween but if not its just tacky😭

[late cargo]

i could understand it, if it was a shark inspired racing livery

[serene thistle]

reminds me of stich

[sullen lance]

one of the few thing's i'd agree with you on

[lavish pine]

amongus

[lavish pine]

what the hell

[sullen lance]

beuty

[zenith cloud]

i think you agree on a lot of things car related w me ngl

[ashen flame]

no i would not

(it's an actual fact^)

[serene thistle]

would love to use it but i dont have the van 😦

[sullen lance]

that looks nice, will it be paid?

[frank kelp]

Nope, free

[sullen lance]

aw cool

[fallow robin]

finally a genuine open wheel racer

[warm forge]

Does anyone else have texture problems where all black wheels are white, gold are silver, and silver are matte gray?

[polar scaffold]

I been working on a map and it looks like GitHub is great for map collab since most of the content is just text files and a couple of binaries for models.

[midnight wren]

Does anyone know of a bumper mod for the D series that gives downforce?

[silent mason]

God I’m so excited, your level of detail combined with racing. It’s gonna be so fun, super excited to see where this goes.

[oak flume]

How hard is it making something like this compared to s Street car

[frank kelp]

much easier IMHO

[fallow robin]

what engine does it use? i know its an i4 but whats the max rpm also

[frank kelp]

7200RPM

[fallow robin]

thank you for the info🙏

[grim cloak]

Could you give us more specification on the engine ?

[frank kelp]

Specifications as in? You have to ask more specific questions

[grim cloak]

The engine displacement, the number of horsepower and newton or the different options that will be available on the engine .

[frank kelp]

there is a single engine available as it's a spec series
2.0L I4, naturally aspirated
200Nm @ 5000rpm
160hp @ 6500rpm

[grim cloak]

Thank you for answering my questions.

[feral hornet]

would anyone be able to make a mod like this?
These cars are called nz superstocks
I would love to see a mod of these

[frank kelp]

https://www.beamng.com/resources/ministock.11828/

not sure if it still works tho

[feral hornet]

thats ministocks not superstocks they are close but not the same
supers are alot bigger and more powerful

[frank kelp]

My bad then, don't know of any superstock mod.

[feral hornet]

know of anyone that can make them?

[frank kelp]

I know a lot of people that could make one, I doubt any of them wants to make one though
making a mod like this can take months so I doubt anyone would want to make one if they're not interested in them

[fading light]

It's summer and I'm bored so I'm gonna try my best to make a Mercedes EQT (cause is loooooovvvvveeee those somehow) and rename it the ETK T series

Maybe look too close to the gavril scout

[latent ivy]

Don't make entire cars. It is a process that takes months or even years.

Start with something simple like skins, engine swaps, configs, or parts for cars.

[terse blaze]

wip pitlane system: https://medal.tv/games/beamng/clips/1hzrgjwjAm5Uzf/d13375NY2KQd?invite=cr-MSxVd2osMTc3ODI3Mjg5LA
extremely early in development of course but im just happy its coming along nicely

i definitely gotta refine the pit speedlimiter so it isnt this rough but that should be fairly easy, and i gotta fix a few other things, but then its on to the actual practice/qualifying/race logic and figuring out how to move the home location lol

[frank kelp]

awesome

[terse blaze]

thank u, cant wait to have it ready for a test race

hopefully tomorrow ill get around to getting the basic of the main modes implemented to start running test races with friends :D

[fading light]

I Actually managed to forgot that in beamng every single part of a car is modeled

[zenith cloud]

only 6.5k? thats like diesel territory lol

[latent ivy]

Anyone want to do a derby with no rules and any car?

[sick ginkgo]

Hey! Where can one get mods of "real" cars? There's some models I would like to drive but it's hard to decipher the code names to find mods on the forum. Are there any other trustworthy sites?

[latent ivy]

Only the forums as they have more quality control.

[sick ginkgo]

Alright then

In that case, can anyone recommend some mods? I like very old cars and goofier ones like the lego car

Are there any mods that are considered "the best" like with Blade & Sorcery?

[fallow robin]

it revs to 7.2k rpm but peaks in hp at 6.5k i think thats kinda normal

for an na car

[waxen kraken]

Woah

That's cool af

[latent ivy]

moments before update

[tight widget]

ikr

better say goodbye to all the mods i was working on

[teal plover]

i wish someone made a new w204 mod.The latest one is like a year old 🥲

[frank kelp]

wow damn a year old that's really old for a mod

[teal plover]

yea it is,and no one makes a remake or sum.it's my favourite car 😢

[silent geode]

i think you could make it

[frank kelp]

common sense says that everyone should update their mod at least twice a week. A mod that's not been updated for more than a month is crazy

can't believe anyone would let their mods die like that

[teal plover]

never. i've never done something like this

[frank kelp]

you can, beamng modding is incredibly easy, making a car mod takes like 20 minutes

[silent geode]

trust this guy ^

[frank kelp]

I've already made 6 today alone

[teal plover]

yea but you have probably years of experience,the only time i used blender was to resize some rims for a mod because they didnt fit

it was actually for the w204 mod lol

[frank kelp]

nah I started modding like a week ago

it's dead easy, plenty of tutorials on youtube too

[lone wolf]

i never tried beam modding but i bet i could do a double-decker bus in half an hour max

[silent geode]

how long did it take you to do like jbeams? 2 or something minutes?

[lone wolf]

got sum experience from Teardown modding already guess i could use it

[frank kelp]

yeah about that, sometimes with simpler cars it's like 30 seconds max

[teal plover]

damn,well it doesnt hurt to try.Do you have any suggestions from which channel i could learn the most on yt etc?

[silent geode]

try "LucasBE"

[teal plover]

watching a tutorial will already take me like 1 1/2 hrs

[maiden shard]

because they explain stuff
so it takes longer
tbh i have never watched a modding tutorial

[frank kelp]

Yeah sorry but I was just being sarcastic. Mods being 1 year old is no big deal, some 2-3 year old mods still work perfectly fine
I have ~3 years of experience making mods and it still takes me well over 4 months to make an entire vehicle from scratch. BeamNG modding is no easy task.

[maiden shard]

yeah
but a meshlap should actually take 20mins i guess

[teal plover]

well the problem is that the only w204 mod thats about a year old already has some problems

[frank kelp]

most skilled modders don't make IRL cars, it's probably just a stolen 3D model slapped onto a vanilla car's physics model with little to no care for detail.

[teal plover]

well it isnt any crazy big problems but they're annoying

like only visual problems

maybe some of yall can help me?

[teal plover]

well the problem is that the gauges are blurry idk why

it worked just fine like 3-4 months ago

[drowsy frost]

yeah wonder who does that (me who hasnt updated one of my mods in over a year)

[polar cedar]

ikr i update all my mods all the time

[copper bane]

is 4 months the average time it takes for mods to be made

with quality like yours

[hoary wolf]

are there any good big city mods

[feral copper]

Is there a skin template for the new portapotty

[fallow robin]

a year+ depends on detail and whatnot

[copper bane]

hm

[misty onyx]

WHERE DO THEY KEEP THE WHEELS

IM TRYNA DO FUNNY
BUT NO WORK

[late trail]

I feel like this would show up eventually since the landsdale came out

[frank kelp]

Yes. Sometimes 6 months, sometimes a year. Depends on the size of the mod.

[copper bane]

hm okay

[copper bane]

oh god

It doesn’t quite fit the gambler “$500” limit.
Maybe a $50,000 limit lol

Also seeing a lot of really sick mods today. Well done all of you

[barren magnet]

have you noticed any frame drops with it? i get a steady decrease in frames when using it, drops almost instantly from well above 60 to 45, and then quickly makes its way down to 20

[fading light]

sry to bother you but is you tutorial for the widebody wendover still up to date ? cause it seems its not working anymore

[frigid palm]

Personally no

I have however noticed it’s a standalone car.

[solemn vector]

Pretty sure you can edit that in part which gets adjusted

Well it's defined there

In jbeam

[icy dock]

i tried changing both default and min/max to have tenths. got some progress, but all i get is .1 then a whole, and it wont apply anything other than whole

[solemn vector]

I can't say anything more precise rn someone else prolly can assist better

Covet Buggy has entered meat(metal?)-space, thanks to @plain swallow

[lyric cedar]

Gave +1 Reputation to @plain swallow

[late cargo]

now, to figure out how to make the different .jbeams not collide

[plain swallow]

If jbeams don't collide, what's the point of beamng after all? 😉

[late cargo]

i mean, I'd prefer the game to be playable, and not freezing up the game due to instability xD

also, the collisions f*ck with my body mesh ;_;

[plain swallow]

You may need supporting beams somewhere

[late cargo]

the thing is, without my front and rear cages, the mesh doesn't pull itself apart

[frigid palm]

What is this?

[late cargo]

a Covet/Piccolina kitbash

[frigid palm]

Oh

[frigid palm]

Is there a thread for it?

[late cargo]

nope, i have asked the mods for access, but it doesn't seem like they've seen it

i would DM one of them, but i don't wanna seem rude/impatient

[frigid palm]

Man I misread that as “I don’t wanna seem important” lol

[late cargo]

also that xD i dont wanna seem self-important either

How far along is it?

[pseudo bluff]

Howd you get the flags if you mind me asking

[frigid palm]

Oh. My. God.
The Austria village has like 100+ different spawned props

[barren magnet]

they're already part of the config. this is heltom's gamblerbuck, not a config for the regular bluebuck

[pseudo bluff]

Ah mk

[frigid palm]

Yeah it’s a standalone car for…… whatever reason

[late cargo]

good question!
I currently have all the meshes i need, but i have only implemented three of them via .jbeam's, although they do not work properly, as seen in the pictures above (the rear and front cages (for suspension) do not work - and the front of the chassis is floppy like a sausage without bumpers/fascia).
I currently only have the DOHC I4 from the midengined Covet, but i want to expand support for the F4's and maybe some V6/8's and I6's.
I am gonna spend the next few days figuring out the jbeam stuff

[barren magnet]

probably too much changed to use the original

[late cargo]

thanks, haha

though idk anything about modding, so i cant say for sure

also try clearing cache to see if it fixes anything

[viscid marlin]

hello, can someone help me add 6 speed transmission and awd to a car?

[frigid palm]

Cache clearing didn’t fix it.

Unrelated but are the attachment points for suspension 100% identical to the stock ones? Because there’s some other suspension mods that just implode when used with this chassis

[polar schooner]

yes the attachment points should be the same

i moved all the nodes at the back so they should be the same but maybe some of the mods try attaching to the nodes at the very front of the frame. if you send me one of the mods that doesn't work ill look into it

[frigid palm]

Hmmm

The only mod I can actually guarantee is exploding is a sema lift kit mod which is patreon so I suppose that’s not a common occurance

Does anyone have a BeamNG map with sinkholes?

[rain robin]

any template to port cars over? also how's the situation of porting maps out of the game?

I've got some cars, just kind of awkward in the "needs exhaust pipes" kind of deal just wondering how many additional junk it needs maybe an example car or something?

modding maps IN would take longer certainly hundreds of materials ruined by mismatching material tags the original game needed maybe I'll try that too

the amount of materials it'd be horrible maintaining 2 different mods while it's a work in progress, plus points when anyone gets what this is ^^

[torpid socket]

Is here anyone who has very advanced knowledge of map making/setting up maps?

For the past 6 or 7 years my maps keep braking when the game updates and i wanna know why

[rain robin]

it's not the if it is the what ^^

I couldn't make money from my mods they're all technically stolen

[latent ivy]

@rain robin Why?

[fathom thorn]

what mod do you want made

well all but one but that one's stolen in spiritual property

[latent ivy]

[latent ivy]

Like a Truck mod

[cursive moon]

Hi, does anyone know of any wide open maps with on and off-road surfaces? If not then can someone possibly make one for me?

[pliant lodge]

hello dear sincere members of the beamng discord server

i wish to be enlightened

i need help understanding the ways of importing vehicles from blender into beamng drive

[fading light]

Why don't you both start to learn jbeam and how to make 3d model and do it yourselves

[latent ivy]

How should we start?

[pliant lodge]

i can create vehicles using blender yet i cant figure out as to import it to beamng drive

[latent ivy]

@pliant lodge Nice

[pliant lodge]

is it a must that i code the vehicles bit by bit? I think thats quite unneceseary dont you think the same as well? There must be another way of importing such vehicles to beamng

[latent ivy]

@pliant lodge Maybe

Me and Infy have 0 experience in blender

[pliant lodge]

quite impressive

[fading light]

Yk what Google is

[latent ivy]

Yes

duh

[fading light]

Search and you'll find faster than you think 😉

[pliant lodge]

if there were answers in what you call "google" i wouldnt be asking these questions to here you bafoon

[latent ivy]

lol

I'll pass

[pliant lodge]

i agree i will wait for wiser people for help

[fading light]

There's literally a whole forum about modding, if you can't find what you want in those then go in #modding-general

[pliant lodge]

the mod development help is still for higher intellected people, i have yet to understand more before i go in to said channel

this is also called modding discussion if my eyes are not lying to me

[fading light]

In the pinned message in mod development help you can find links on how to create content for beamng if that's what you need

[pliant lodge]

i think you have a problem of understanding clearly, all i asked for was for a way to import creations from blender into beamng the sites that you have provided tells me what is jbeam how it works and how to create vehicles in blender, i understand this part quite clearly but i cannot get my creations from blender to beamng

[fading light]

I wasn't talking to you at first yk?

[pliant lodge]

well i dont care nonetheless i have found it myself no thanks to you and you and your tiny weepy brain all you needed to say was "use the blender export plugin for beamng" but i guess your mother gave you a little too much spanking this morning and now you are all cranky

im going to create a v12 covet now

[fading light]

Why you mad abt this 💀

[fading light]

I don't even know what is blender export plug-in so how was I supposed to say it? And you see, you find it

[severe goblet]

[late cargo]

its not a must per sé. i personally have taken the .jbeam file from the Covet chassis and modified it to fit my needs, but if you are making something original, you may need to do it by "hand"

[late cargo]

i can DM u a youtube playlist with a step-to-step guide, if you want? @pliant lodge

[frank kelp]

there is no such thing as importing a vehicle from blender to beamng.drive

making a vehicle mod is a complex process involving making physics structures for every single part of a car

those are commonly referred to as Jbeams and are made using .jbeam files

example here :

every part of the car is made up of individual nodes and beams. Nodes are points that have a given weight and material, beams are the lines connecting those points. They can have different deformation, stiffness, and damping values depending on the case

[fast kernel]

@frank kelp what are you using for making and editing nodes?

Want to finally study how that works

[latent ivy]

if the engine beamng uses is torque3d which supports c and c++ is it possible to make any mod written in c

[terse blaze]

beamng uses lua for modding, but afaik theres nothing stopping you from writing a lua module in c i guess

although i doubt itll get accepted to the repo lol

[late cargo]

yo, mr mod man
could I kindly get access to post in #1102973298222051358 ?
i asked in #bot-commands as stated in the rules for #1102973298222051358 however my msg seems to have been drowned out

[latent ivy]

theres a thing called libsm64 which basically allows you to put mario 64 in any game with c i wanted to know if its possible

[fast kernel]

DMed you

[terse blaze]

i mean sure if you could compile it as a lua module, im sure you could get it to work, but its not as easy as just slapping it in the project lol. its always gonna require a bunch of work anyway

[late cargo]

also, to answer your question, even though I wasn't asked;
NodeBEAM Editor (old and hasn't been updated in a few years) is a GUI-app which can visualize nodes and you can edit .jbeams, granted it is a bit clunky but it helps! Also, supposedly it can create nodes, beams and triangles for you, from an imported .obj, however i have not tested it

you can get it on github and/or a forum post from... 2017? however that post links to github

[terse blaze]

you can also use the blender jbeam exporter plugin, but its a bit wonky as well. i think all high quality mods just end up with mostly handbuilt jbeam files?

[frank kelp]

a regular text editor

please don't use NodeBeamEditor, it's outdated, barely works, and I just wouldn't recommend it
I "model" my jbeam structures in blender and then I copy paste the node coordinates and make the beams myself after that

[nimble valley]

Lmfao if it were that easy beamng drive would be equally as fun as mario kart or something.

[late cargo]

you could even turn it into mario kart

[junior zodiac]

i can't help you i try to find how add a skidplate for the D-series

[cursive moon]

I’m not after anything complexed. I cannot pay a lot but I am defo willing to pay if someone is willing to do it. I just want a wide open map with different types of road surface, both on and off-road and shallow water that can be driven through. I also want different sized bumps/jumps and speed areas between bumpy sections so I can test cars Would this be possible? I would like every on and off-road surface in the game, but no buildings or obsticals that are static/can’t be destroyed. How hard would something like this be?

[last pecan]

You could make something that basic yourself using the world editor. Just load into gridmap v2 and then you'll be able to use the assets like the different surfaces, jumps, bumps, etc.

Here's a good starting point: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FiYPhBMg3Tc&list=PLhcsTBw4C3ZPY39JBUiogkWfIJ6UzZP_O

[cursive moon]

I appreciate your suggestion, but this isn’t possible for me because I am blind, in other words not sighted. I want a map where I’m not going to crash, grid map has walls etc and that's something what I really don’t want in a map. I love smallgrid but it is very plain and no other surfaces. I wouldn't ask if I could do it myself, the track editing is inaccessable for me as I can’t see what I’m doing to put the different track pieces etc

[torpid socket]

o i know this vid

i used it to make my maps

oh that reminds me, day 3 of asking this:

"Is here anyone who has very advanced knowledge of map making/setting up maps?
For the past 6 or 7 years my maps keep braking when the game updates and i wanna know why"

[last pecan]

Oh, sorry friend! I'm sure someone will be able to help then 🙂

[cursive moon]

Also there’s no one that I know who could do it for me; and as mentioned before most the vanilla maps have walls or trees etc that I always crash into

[cursive moon]

it's no problem at all 😊

[cursive moon]

I can’t make any maps as you may have seen in my last msgs but I think it's just a mod thing in general. Take GTAV for example, every time there’s an update, it breaks the scripthook which in other words is all the mods, and you have to wait til someone releases a patch, hence that's what you have to do with your maps. I could be wrong though, it's a different game but what I’m saying makes sence, to me anyway 🤣

@cursive moon Same

@cursive moon What problem do you have?

Maybe I can help

[cursive moon]

Thank you, I would appreciate it if you could. I’m blind/not sighted, so the vanilla maps of the game aren’t the best accept for smallgrid which is plain but gives you unlimited road. I always keep crashing on the other vanilla maps because of walls and things, so I’m looking for a wide open map with different road and off-road surfaces so I can have fun testing cars without crashing into things. People have suggested gridmap and it's v2 version but again, it has walls and things to crash into, so it's not suitable. I want a map with every surface in the game but devided into sections so I will know when I’m off-road or in shallow water because of the cars tire sounds etc.

[fast kernel]

@warped field
I know it’s been answered on forums page but I want to make it clear for myself. Can I use Hoonicorn AWD system for reverse engineering?

[heady arch]

whats a good website to get good modded cars? all the ones on the beamng menu suck

[lyric solstice]

BeamNG forums are good, as well as repo. that's it, that's every good website.

[heady arch]

okay

[lyric solstice]

any website not endorsed by the beam devs is risky and dangerous (modland, worldofmods, etc)

[maiden shard]

youre right
and also this:
lucasbeoff.gumroad.com
lj74.gumroad.com
https://www.buymeacoffee.com/nekkit

[lyric solstice]

ah yes, gumroad too, forgot that

got me most of the paid cars, serenity sadly not

still waiting on somebody to make a proper trabant mod

[green field]

Anyone got some drag racing cars and maps I can get ?

[grim cloak]

I am very interested in modding at the moment and I would like to know what software should I install or simply what software do you use

[latent ivy]

Blender for 3D modeling
Paint.net, Krita, or GIMP for texture creation
Notepad++ for coding

[grim cloak]

Not using Node Beam Editor?

[latent ivy]

Node beam editor for jbeaming, although it's a little outdated.

[grim cloak]

After all isn't it the only one that works

[latent ivy]

I think yes.

[nocturne skiff]

Does anyone know a good Trail map (So I can dreive either my trophy truck or cars on there?

[latent ivy]

Moab has trails to drive on.

[nocturne skiff]

It does?

All I did was install it and have not played it yet

[latent ivy]

I have other trail maps, Gambler Hills and Dangerous Roads.

[nocturne skiff]

Ok I will keep hem in mind

[tired coyote]

https://beamng.com/resources/eastern-oregon-usa.27270/ maybe this? (shameless self plug)

[tired coyote]

Gambler hills is too small for a trophy truck lol

[nimble valley]

5600 redline lol

low revving torque monster

[latent ivy]

hey all, just messing with angine rpms again, and now for some reason its limited to 1,000,000 rpm

[nimble valley]

how is this possible

i just calculated a 3.8 V6 flywheel rotating inertia and its a fking 0.73

25.5 lbs and outer diameter is 14.237 inches.

https://www.phoenixfriction.com/p-40743-fw206-flywheel-ford-mustang-v6-38l-164t-external-balance.aspx

i just used any 3.8 v6 flywheel because i wanted the real feel.

default flywheel on the lansdale had 11 lbs and inertia of 0.11

[torpid socket]

but all maps created by others that u download for example the car jump arena or crash hard map, they don't break when the game updates and i am pretty sure it would have affected a lot more people when it generally breaks that way, but only i seem to have this problem.

[oblique ferry]

Oh beam devs

[frigid palm]

So. We think theos covet is gonna win?

[gusty bramble]

how do you edit the game files

im having trouble saving them as jbeam files

[junior mica]

are there any 2000's skoda mods?

[latent ivy]

The Skoda Octavia on the forums but it's currently paid. It'll be free once it's finished.

[frigid palm]

Anyone know of any good f1/open wheel mods that are out rn?

[oblique ferry]

The Formula Ibishu on the repository is a great one

[frigid palm]

Looking for something bigger but thanks! I’ll check that out too

[gusty bramble]

why can i not edit the jbeam files in notpad++

[fallow robin]

how do you calculate it?

[nimble valley]

i forgot to divide diameter by 2 to get radius so it was supposed to be 0.18 lol

[nimble valley]

https://www.omnicalculator.com/physics/mass-moment-of-inertia

select disk and input the weight and radius and look at the z moment of inertia

[fallow robin]

can you help me check the inertia for a ferrari 458

also thank you

[nimble valley]

you need the information on it

[fallow robin]

also an s2000 and yeah i need to info

the*

[nimble valley]

yea

[fallow robin]

i have something in the works but im not home to calculate that rn

so i just need the help

[pearl dove]

i've seen this car in person

didn't even realize it until like a day or two after

[hexed forum]

LOL

[pearl dove]

you could probably make something similar with a body we currently have in game tho, there's an 80s-90s mercedes body family

choose a bigger version of it, like 3m wheelbase

[hexed forum]

rip cap

[pearl dove]

oh wait this is beamng not automation

[hexed forum]

yes

[pearl dove]

yeah big 90s european luxury sedan would be good

bmw e32 or mercedes w/v140

[hexed forum]

the probleme is that the i will like to have exhaust sound

[pearl dove]

need a boat that isn't panther body we have at home

[latent ivy]

I have a question about when and how a mod is doing in progress on releasing

[languid timber]

That format of "[vehiclename]_engbaycrap" is on almost every car ever made for the game, so much so that I even found it on the Scintilla... or was it the Bolide?

[primal sky]

I have a question, I keep going to sites with mods but they all look fake? What site actually works for real cars?

[latent ivy]

Def not modland

[fathom thorn]

you should only get mods from the Beamng repositroy, or the beamng forums

[primal sky]

ok

thx

[fathom thorn]

most real car mods off of 3rd party sites suck

[latent ivy]

Or there stolen

[fathom thorn]

yeah

[primal sky]

i ent on there found a car i liked but i couldnt download iy

or get it into a file

[frigid palm]

Genuinely surprised no one thought, for the gambler one, chop up a wrecked dune kicker frame and weld it to cars

[fathom thorn]

what car is it?

[primal sky]

laborgini avwntidor

my fault

very new to pc so i cant type for poo

[fathom thorn]

that mod is currently work in progress, so it can't be downloaded

[primal sky]

oh

[latent ivy]

Could someone answer my question about a mod

[primal sky]

how do u know that

[latent ivy]

It was posted on the repo last week and I wanna know what is the progression of it being released

[primal sky]

i didn't see it

[fathom thorn]

there no set answer to that question, because modders work at different speeds, and can sometimes take breaks

[latent ivy]

hmmm ok so how can i tell when it may be released?

[fathom thorn]

it depends how much progress has been made on the mod mostly

[latent ivy]

well it was posted last wwek

week

[green field]

What’s a good site to get good mods?

[latent ivy]

Forums and repo.

[green field]

Are those websites

[latent ivy]

Yes.

Both are official.

[green field]

Sorry brand new to BeamNG just want some rock crawlers and dragsters

Would it be .com or what

[frigid palm]

Rock crawlers there’s some good ones

[green field]

I’m trying to find McFarlands el cameno

And mc flurry

@latent ivy would it be .com or something like that

[latent ivy]

Yes. BeamNG.com

[frigid palm]

Yeah those don’t exist yet

Not all cars have a beamng versuon

[fervent crystal]

well i've had no response over at #bot-commands

so here's the 200BX targa, coming soon(?)

black one is regular 200BX

maybe this'll make the devs remaster it

the one time i decide to mod a car, they'll change it in the next update

[latent ivy]

A 200BX Targa? Cool idea!

[fervent crystal]

thanks!!

[olive spade]

love it

[fervent crystal]

i really like the 200BX, and i also like the idea of the center pillar that goes all the way around the roof

[terse blaze]

yeah cool idea. also i think the people you pinged might be asleep or busy rn, im sure you'll get access soon :)

[fervent crystal]

pinged two of the three online mods that were online at the time 😭

[latent ivy]

They are busy.

[fervent crystal]

i assume so

[terse blaze]

im sure you'll get in asap. but cool mod, id love to see how this turns out

[fervent crystal]

*if

not "how"
if

[midnight shale]

its the ibishu dove mod

[fervent crystal]

aye, gn now

i stayed up till 3am working on this

[terse blaze]

meh, i think of all projects as "they either get finished and id love to see the result, or they learned something new"

yeah fair enough, i should go to bed soon too lol, 3 am here as well
gn!!!

[inner atlas]

Hey you copied my name

[latent ivy]

Hey!! You copied mine

[inner atlas]

No i've been in this server long than you and i've been using this name since i was 4

I always go by Tyler 😂😅

My name irl is Tyler 😁

[inner atlas]

This is funny

[barren shuttle]

modland... lmao

[terse blaze]

nah modland sucks

[frigid palm]

Do not.

[terse blaze]

i dont really understand how modland is still used for beam mods, the only interaction ive had with that site so far really was having to deal with a modland admin to get my mod removed after someone stole it 😭

[barren shuttle]

why💀

[stiff lark]

Hmm

[barren shuttle]

jk i know its leaks

but its not all that bad tbh

[cyan drum]

no

[frigid palm]

Uhhhhh anyone gonna tell him about the illegal adult material?

[cyan drum]

do you mean illegal children material?

[frigid palm]

I didn’t want to specify

[stiff lark]

Let's not start it here. We might get nuked.

[frigid palm]

Good point

Tl:dr modland bad

Nuff said

[barren shuttle]

wtf? never heard about this

[frigid palm]

I am no longer involved in this conversation

[fathom thorn]

Most of it is low quality/bad

There are a couple ok mods I’ve found

[terse blaze]

Tons of stolen mods too. I just dont see why you would use the site instead of the repo or the forums. Anything worth downloading will be on there anyway

[inner atlas]

???

[silent mason]

So excited this makes so much sense. With other Jdm coupes having targas and hardtops, Miata’s, supras, mr2, del sol, nsx, and 300zx.

[silent mason]

Forgot to reply😭

[warm forge]

thank you

[lyric cedar]

Gave +1 Reputation to @midnight shale

[oblique ferry]

I wonder if more reviews will pop up when my update drops

[fading gust]

hopefully lol, iirc your mod goes to the top of the repo when it’s updated

[late cargo]

try, politely, DM'ing a mod, that's what I did, when it took a while for the #bot-commands msg to be seen

[kind quartz]

how can i turn off ai rubberbanding (the ai slow down after a certain distance) while the ai are fleeing?

[fervent crystal]

Im glad you like it!!

[rich breach]

any mod that makes the moon gone or less bright? i want it to be pitch black but the moon makes it like day

[lone wolf]

try those hours after the sun sets but before the moon rises

[silent mason]

What car hauler trailer is that? I can’t find any except one that people say it breaks their shadows.

[alpine compass]

beamng sex mod???

[rich breach]

yeah the moon still is full bright

its still like day almost

[final plume]

Hey, I have downloaded the CK Graphics Settings Mod and it looks really good. But every time I enter a different world or restart the game, the settings reset to default. I have turned on Force Settings, which made every setting save, except the Higher Shadows Resolution. If I open the menu the box is checked, but I have to uncheck and check it again to get the better shadows. Any help would be appreciated.

[hollow citrus]

Trucker central

[dapper smelt]

i think its because you dont have the mod,but the config is still there

[green field]

Ayoooo

[alpine compass]

its in the works

[green field]

Honestly I’m down

[oblique ferry]

The uhm

[waxen cliff]

has anyone done a carbon texture on Substance and if so what texture do you use

[frank kelp]

there's a carbon fiber material included in substance painter by default

[warped field]

hoonicorn awd sysem is probably a mix of some sunburst or scintilla transfer case all mixed together to work.
i cant remember exactly which part i used initially.

but im also not 100% sure i understood your reverse engineering question?
pm me if you want i dont mind.

if you are talking about the whole suspension....
i tried to reverse engineer what i researched, but am not an engineer myself so i know i did mistakes in that suspension.
there is an update planned for the hoonicorn that i need to work on, and suspension still needs work, but i havent had time to put into the hoonicorn yet sadly..

[random fiber]

So, is there a mod that simulates an H-shifter for an Xbox controller?

[dark pasture]

does anyone know some high quality tesla car models?

[green field]

Need it rn

[plain swallow]

I can give you texture and bumpmap to use with BeamNG, i had nice reflections with that
However idk if you can use it in Substance Painter (i started learning it like yesterday)

Actually
I'll try now and tell you what is possible 😄

[waxen cliff]

Oouu

What do you use to do textures

[latent ivy]

Substance Painter, paint.net, Adobe Photoshop, Krita, or GIMP.

Even PhotoFiltre7.

[plain swallow]

Actually, i just needed a better texture for Scintilla, so i took a bit, tiled it to 2k resolution, generated a normalmap out of it with online tool, and heres the result (no perfect by any means):

[latent ivy]

I bet it's too high poly.

[waxen cliff]

What does it look like in game

[plain swallow]

Oh, i found out how to add material in SP Library, woohoo

[plain swallow]

Oh man do Scintilla love angles

[teal ocean]

any one know about and prefromens mods

[latent ivy]

RJ's customizable engines and turbocharge everything. Also the indestructible engine mod, if that's what you mean.
If you mean better FPS, you might want to use CK's graphical mod.

[sudden tide]

for some reason every time i leave it does thios i need to redownload the rr wheels

[fervent crystal]

no progress was made on the targa 200bx today

[latent ivy]
