i think it was the file type
ive just went to try test it and i didnt even reimport it
i give up with modding, i can't get past the jbeams and all that
crappy meshslaps that are basically a landsale or a sunburst underneath
true, but im just surprised no one has even done at least that for a clio
they are in fact boring cars
so eh
https://www.beamng.com/threads/1996-1999-renault-mégane-scénic-unfinished.90896/ shame about this one
one of my favourite cars
that one is half decent
is there a current mod of the Nürburgring Nordschleife
wip Inline 6 for the burnside
where can i access your mod, sorry kinda new to beamng
in the post theres that file attached
thats the mod
if this message gets 5 upvotes I'll post a UI mod that consistently shows mph or kmh (or both) so that you can tell the 'wtf is a kilometer' people how fast you're actually going
5 upvotes already? Roger that, will work on it 👍
isnt there a mod of this car somewhere?
i dont think theres vw gol mods
its a polo
AW Bete
hi
could someone help me with a skin?
what skin
for the carbonworks f4
im not too great with livery designs
i already made the skin
i just need help to make it work
like setting up the files
idk if i am able to do that. i am mostly good with installing vehicle mods...
Have you looked in the beamng documentation
no its kinda outdated
i just need someone that can set up the files for me
i already made the skin
It should explain how to set up the files
could you set the files up for me maybe.....?
I can’t do stuff for you
ok i guess
tuning sound while ai is driving @quartz loom thanks for the help and @wild moth
sounds very good but video is very quiet
How the heck do I make a dual exhaust into one? xD
I told the left to merge into the right, but it just doesnt work.
physics or 3d ?
jbeam wise.
i think they make single exhaust and just add the other exhaust as cosmetics
I set ex2l to merge with ex5r like the right side, and it starts blowing smoke out the front of the motor xD
Not sure if it's the correct channel, but is the DFA pack worth buying?
I'd definitely say so, tons and tons of parts, all of it's really high quality, you can spend over an hour just building one truck if you really get into the small bits
I was thinking about buying the lifetime version on gumroad
Is the lifetime purchase worth it?
Yeah, easily, a 5$ one time purchase is a steal for the amount of content you get with it
It's kinda hard to put into words how much there is, the drivetrain stuff alone would be worth it imo, all the transmissions and motors are really well done
https://ko-fi.com/s/04d2d6dadf yall i cant download the mod
the ui isnt appearing is it a problem with page or the mod
I saw that a bunch of stuff is being worked on, (800 Series and the DFA 2) will I get any of that in the future?
Can't say on that stuff, don't take my word for it, but I think they'll be separate
If anything @dull grove would be able to answer that for you
I got mine through the patreon a while back so I'm not sure if the gumroad includes access to the discord
you pinged him uh oh
I will be smited down within hours
Lol
lol
I'll have to look further into the Discord thing, I definitely want to be a part of the community.
The mod looks insanely good
Switching gears. Does anybody know of a mod/port for Atlanta Motorsports Park? Haven't seen one around and would love to drive my home course on beam
Road Atlanta?
I found a monster truck arena called Atlanta Motorsports Park
Looks like it has tracks in the background
A World Finals Custom at Atlanta Motor Speedway in Atlanta, Ga. I've spent quite a while working on this track and will be adding 3 more versions soon. Files: 1. Racing/Intros 2.High Jump/Encore 3.Skills/Freestyle 4.Muddy 5.Duplicate Link(site is being weird and keeps adding it) 6.Google Drive Fo...
Yeah, that's in the oval track sadly
Ah okay
It's a more niche track so I don't really expect it to exist on the site, but if it did it'd be a more personal/self published deal
was hoping maybe somebody happened to have one or knew of one lol
you will get the 800 series stuff in the future but the dfa 2 stuff will be separate (some of the biggest parts are gonna be free)
Awesome, thank you!
(Just bought the DFA pack, looks epic!)

thank you as well! appreciate the support. you should automatically join my discord so if you have any further questions or issues they can be answered there
Gave +1 Reputation to @plush magnet
Sounds good! I did join the Discord 👍
I was looking through old messages and saw this and just had to remind ourselves of it because it sounds crazy even though its not perfect ofc.
how do you install mods that are just zip files, such as maxie's crown vic?
Put them In the mods folder
Appdata/local/beamng.drive/0.30/mods
awaiting approval, expect delays up to days 👍
Anybody know of a good cargo plane mod?
There’s the AN-12
I've been teaching myself 3d modeling with beam modding, this is what ive done so far. covet motor go zoom
I noticed how similar the Wentward looks to the old New Flyers and the CNG versions of those from 98-2000 are my favorite buses ever so I'm trying to recreate it to the best of my ability
Good day, I am having an issue with the Wigeon.
I'm kinda new to the game, but I'm not new to installing mods (lol). So anyways, I had installed the Wingeon mod, and when I use the Wingeon, it gives me specific flight controls for it, which is awesome, but...
Not so awesome when I'm trying to drive a normal Wigeon. For some reason when I try to drive any other version of the Wigeon, it still gives me flight controls.
Modded Wigeon and regular Wigeon.
Anyone know some underrated 4X4 maps? Interested in that
Links to sites like that get auto deleted
Only beamng.com
Most other sites have lots of low quality cars, with quite a few being leaked paid mods, or leaked private mods
well, at least i can't find any.
It has the most high quality mods
oh, makes sense.
Here’s a link to a list of a bunch of HQ mods
i thought they had to do with real life cars
can someone recommend a motorcycle mod?
?
like in the page, i thought they had to do with real life cars like toyota or smth
Real life cars aren’t allowed to be on the repo, but irl car mods can be posted on the beamng forums
could the caprice on the left be affecting the crown vics lights?
the lights are not on btw
what should be the size of an f4 cars wing?
do yall know where i could find a good g wagon mod
it doesn't exist
they're not good
but where could i find good quality real car mods
There are some good ones on the forums
And some irl cars are on the repo, but they have lore friendly names and stuff

Copyright? If so, do I need to ask the moderators for permission to post these mods on the forum?
they don't check mods on weekends
I know, but this status only appeared today
https://www.beamng.com/threads/1991-1996-chevrolet-caprice-reworked.92047/ another one is this
Original thread:
http://www.beamng.com/threads/4th-gen-chevrolet-caprice-classic-update-07-08-2022.57794/
This first release is pretty basic and only...
jbeam is a bit broken in some areas, but it works
for engines it dont seem to be an issue
and that status should appear imediatly
but sometimes it doesnt
.cs is also a c sharp file and I didnt know that its used for materials too
just take a look at a vailla json material and remake your original material from scratch
there is a converter somewhere
you are wrong, do not mention things you dont know about
materials.cs was the original way of making materials in beam
but the cs file extension is used for c sharp files too I guess?
wrong
in this case .cs is torquescript, which was in fact used to create datablocks (and therefore materials)
whattt, is c sharp a lie?
no, its just used for both torquescript and c#
and if you code your game engine you could call a file whatever you want
so you could make the materials extension .ehriagshgsad and if the game engine understands that the extension = mateials file ill will be fine
my bad, I'm sorry
do you have permission?
idk but you should ask permission before touching others work
what does the red mean, i had it with my mods
and still have
"in approval", a moderator has to approve it before its public
ah ok
These two mods of mine have already been approved before, but it seems like there are some problems
Anybody willing to help? :p
When i record a script and finish it. It doesn't say somewhere that i've done the script.
Anyone that can help?
?
Anybody willing to help me please?
you don't use materials.cs anymore
it's deprecated, even tho last time i used it, it seemed to work with PBR, but for futureproofing reasons, use materials.json
Anyone please?
??
Any help please???
?????
anyone know why this happens to some of my downloaded cars?
it happens when dds textures aren't placed inside the mod and instead they leave png textures, then beamng cooks them into dds
just ctrl r several times
Anyone please?
posting over and over will not just get you an answer
because thats a feature most people dont use and is still very buggy and alpha
what mod is that? can you send me a link to it if possible?
yup gimmie a bit
im eating right now so ill be about 15 mins
i had anpther good one so let me find that one as well
thank you so much

Happy to help
@tired coyote with the Zeidio, with the .json file can i put spaces in the artist name?
Yes
is anyone aware of a well made 87-93 ford mustang mod? i know we have the solidad spica from the repo(that digital dash really kills me cause i was hoping it would have replicated the fox dash with small changes), but i own many foxbodies(79-93 mustangs) in real life and i'm yet to find one that isnt just a total turd model swap onto a vanilla car's jbeam stuff/ or just a drag car.
also in search of a mkIII/A70 supra that isnt a terrible 200bx in disguise.
hi, does anyone know what deos the driving modes changes with this mod ? https://www.beamng.com/threads/2016-2022-bugatti-chiron-update-v1-35-released.88889/
hes asking what it does
i found what is the difference beetween driving modes but what is esc & tc and what deost it changes when i turn it on/off
it just changes the way the car handles?
i found it on an website about the real life on
ok thanks
sadly don't think there are any good mods of either cars, other than the Spica you already mentioned 
i guess if it is just the dash that bothers you it should not be to hard to say take one out of another foxbody model and swap it for personal use
i'm just crossing my fingers the author for the spica might fo a analog early 80s foxbody dash knockoff, i doubt a dash swap would be as simple as transferring some model files and editing things in notepad and my experience with 3d modeling programs is pretty much nonexistent.
edit: im not so sore over the fact theres no good foxbody mod that i'd sink time into learning how to properly use blender,3dsmax,ect. whatever is used now for these(i tried with assetto and even swapping wheels years back took a day to get right, i'm not interested in the anger that will cause lmao)
Modland mods are always hit or miss
If you know how to look you can find some really good ones
Like the 911/992 from twixer is awesome
However it’s not realistic
I love that mod
?
It doesn’t handle like how one should, and it’s overall not the best
Others would be able to explain more issues with it
It's terrible lmao
Barely has any optimization, almost every single material is doublesided for no reason
Plus the gt3rs config actually handles worse than the base one lol
i don't use real car mods, they're never really that amazing
or the scintilla
that car just sucks lmfao
undeniable truth
its beamng i just wanna crash the cars i dont really care about handling
show me a better one that u have made
The one in his pfp
It probably doesn’t even crash realistically
i kinda does
“Kinda”
Definitely not at all lol, spiking everywhere
Interior also looks really bad, it looks like untextured cheap plastic lmao
Yes, with a friend
wait 1 sec
We're talking about the modern 911 from twixer, or are we not?
I'm still right then
i dont see how this is bad but okay
yeah its good enough for me
what even is the mod that ur making
for offroading?
intersting
yes
You download the mod, and put it into the mods folder
how
where do i find them
You can open the mods folder by going to the ingame mods manager and pressing the “open mods folder” button
all i want is funny belgium track 😭
so you gotta do is this
Then ask “where can I download a map for spa”
when you have the .zip file
That’s not how you do it
If you put mods in the content folder in there they will get deleted whenever you clear the cache or verify the files
Or when the game updates
The file path to the mods Folder is appdata/local/beamng.drive/0.30/mods
how do i restore the original radio test ui app code because i messed up my code and it doesnt exist
If you were modifying the game files, just verify them and it’ll be fixed
yippe i can finnaly modify dicta.ogg to play audio while driving again
huh. weird.. i verified the files but still got my mods from content vehicles here
Maybe it’s just when you clear the cache then
Anyways that’s not where they are supposed to go
no
veryify =/= clear cache
Is blender the ideal 3d model software for Beam modding?
virtually everyone uses that
Good to know
guys sorry but does anyone has the non-pbr nürburgring ?
I don't
Merlin V12 27L Engine
That looks like it could be a spiritual successor to the firehawk (Merlin in the Moonhawk)
why would you need the non-pbr one?
So then... What folder do they go in? repo?
I've been putting them there
I put the non repo mods in the mods folder just because it’s Better for organization
I've had great success with cars (albeit some being broken, simply because of creator error... I got a Ferrari F40 mod with a very strange texture and the wheels were completely missing), but as for levels... It's been hit or miss.
But it really doesn’t matter
well, I immediately came here for a little help, so I'll get to the point:
I was looking for a good mod of a Honda Pilot, I've seen some but from the links available it's from Modland, which last time I used that I got stressed out by fake McAfee notifs saying I had trojans and backdoors, so I was wondering if anyone knew about any good ones.
What year honda pilot do you want in beam?
oh
well sorry, just found one off of a video that lead to safe-as-always Mediafire, I just gotta figure out how to do the engine lol
there we are.
I don't really feel ripped off, few errors here and there but it's pretty good for what it is
well now that I see the fromt windshield is merely mirrored textures, eh
none are good
yeah, sadly, only a select few are truly good
you either commision or you make it yourself, that's how it kinda seems to work
does someone have a map that's similar to johnson valley? I have a lot of hours on that map and really enjoy it so I wanted to try something else.
Thank you @wild axle

god id love a detailed Mk1 Mr2 mod

i just lack the skills to mod
I wonder if anyone has made a Dakar Rally version of the Tograc. I'd be surprised if that wasn't the case.
be surprised then
uav is planning on making one in the distant future
is this the correct server to see if any one can help me get a specific mod. if so does any one know what a good monster jam truck mod is. please and thank you
You can get some monster trucks from beammonsters site. Its a safe site as the author moved their monster truck stuff to their own site than the beam forums.
Is there a mod that adds a plethora of parts that all cars can universally use, or specifically additional parts for the Wigeon? I'm trying to make a beast of a police car out of one, but the 2500cc engine is limited by the 5-speed transmission, going only to 95mph. ;-;
any1 have the link for the MAN truck mod?
yes
is there a toyota innova mod?

Who here made Johnson valley extra? The creator name in the repo page doesn’t match anyone here
no
maybe imthelaw removed it
i think he wasnt happy with the quality or something
oh that
its still available on the modland post but updates already broke it
is it completely unusable?
Oh
ja i saw it on modland but had 2 star rating
Guess ill wait for https://discord.com/channels/710082165253079061/1119943246194417664

but interior and grille textures are broken
@dense portal sorry to ping you but will you be fixing the no texture problems of the 2021 SBR cabriolet/interior? just wondering bc i would love to drive a convi
ik you're super busy trying to get the ccf all done by ur deadline but just wondering if a fix may be coming soon
im probably not gonna be touching that mod in a while if ever again, as the KLJP one has replaced it in lore
ik the kljp one doesnt have a cv version
can anybody tell my why my texture does not come thru the color pallet?
iamthela
are there any plugins i can use to edit .dds textures in blender?
that's the main thing i was hoping would be fixed
i have a pretty good audi a4 if you would like to take a look at it
pretty sure thats because as of now iamthelaw105(1 of the people working on the rs6) first took down all of his other mods and couple months later put this up (attachment) from the sounds of it modding might temporarily paused or they could be quitting modding. So we might not see the release of the rs6 or atleast not for a while.
he removed all of his mods. so i dont think its that.
yes please
Anyone have a trailer mod either for the T series or just normal cars
There's the clear car trailer if you want.

Okay thx

How can i get access to posting in showcase your mods
Ask a moderator.
Can yall reccommend me some fun maps
Downhill Mayhem from Spealer might suit you
hi does anyone know if there is a supercar drag mod?
mios drag pack has lots of drag stuff, i'm sure there's configs for the scintilla and bolide for ya with that mod
can some modders get into a new project with my modder friends?
We are making a car
We need some people that know how to mod and make things actually work in game
so what you are saying is: you know nothing about making a mod and you are trying to find others to make it for you
😭
is it the cry of laughter or cry of sadness?
Hi um I have a question does it matter if you buy the game on steam or official website can you use mods on both versions? BTW I don't have the game yet
just get from steam
pretty sure website redirects to steam
I don’t think you are able to buy it on the website
Yeah I looked it redirects you to steam
I was unsure because I didn't want to buy the game and the nI wouldn't be able to mod it
It would be pretty stupid to do that
Having one moddable, and one not moddable
Yeah that's what happen to me when I bought trailmakers on Microsoft store and I couldn't download mods
something like minecraft I guess
That sucks
It’s probably because of some rule the Microsoft store has
laughter
ms store game files are usually very locked down and obfuscated
What does cleaning cache do
it cleans cache
The cache is stored files that make stuff easier to load basically
You won’t need to clear it unless you are having missies with the game
#modding-general message Please help
Are there any mods for a tank?
Is there anybody who I can have make a mod of a car for me?
nope
I’ve been trying to make it, but I guess I’m not very good at it lol. I don’t have the time nor skill
There’s a T-80 on the forums
It’s best to start small
Does anyone know of a Subaru outback/crosstrek mod?
Can we get a mod that allows air suspension for other vehicles
that would be nice
I want to tow a trailer with a severely lifted truck
The #1108011609907015792 has some configs with air suspension
With what vehicles?
Some of the configurations in that mod have air suspension, and some have conventional suspension
I hate to sound like a idiot, but I'm trying to find this idk if it's a new mod but it's a burnside based mod in the style of soviet cars.
It's got 3 generations of it
Nvm I found it its the fps polonia
No, me and my friends are modders, I am just not that talented, we want more people to make this easier for us
so you want the more experienced modders to do everything while the non experienced ones do next to nothing and annoy
no
yes
ive worked in group proyects
So for the sake of everyone, what can the current team do?
and what do they want to do
Does anybody know any good police car mods that have cool traffic stop technology like a grappler likes this
@tribal apex I know you are a bit dim and struggle a bit with reading comprehension but atleast tell me you can change channels
huh
Goshtee said to move an argument here, the dude I pinged is who I was arguing with, he claims using a free model to make a mod is better than making one from scratch
I can yeah, I am arguing about a certain mod, not development in general
This is so stupid, im trying to have a legitimate argument
You basically just told a modder “nuh uh ur doing it wrong”
You loop around an entire city to get from your house to your neghbours, i tell you that you can turn left instead of right, i get banned from living in the city for saying that
That’s not what you said
You basically told a modder who has put months of work
Into making a very detailed project
That it is kinda for nothing
And they should just use a free model instead
I told a person who was halfway done driving around the whole city very carefully that he could have turned left fron the start
Those things in no way correlate with eachother lol
Wow that’s about as far off as you could possibly be with an analogy
You did not tell someone who was halfway driving through a city a different route
Nothing about a route, not going that way from the start was what I said
You said they shouldn’t have spent months taking their time making a project super detailed and instead should have relied on free models instead
now tell me, would you rather make your own burrito, or would you rather just grab a free one from some random sketchy dude on the sidewalk
Also if she just got a free model and made it, then it’s not really her mod anymore
Because it’s not a model she made
But with how it is now, she made it, it’s hers
she can do whatever
You cant get food poisoning from a 3d model
never said ya could
(But ya can get a computer virus)
Thats the main reason you wouldnt grab a buritto of the street
From an fbx file?
You do know you can make pretty much any file malicious right?
if you atleast know what you’re doing
so the pros and cons of using a random free model
Pros: speed
You wouldnt open an fbx file as an administrator
Cons: risking a malicious file, it’s not your model, countless other people have used it for the same purpose making your mod not stand out at all
Your mod wont stand out if the model you made looks the same as the free model
Maybe higher quality
Which is GUESS WHAT
why she’s making it from scratch
so it does look different
Who on this earth would have thought
And that's precisely the idea
What?
How hard is it for you to comprehend that the person making the mod wants to create a higher quality mod, and that using a free model would not yield the needed results
Then upscale the model if you have 8 months of free time
hey I got some revolutionary info for ya
She wasn’t working on the mod 24/7 for those 8 months
Can you stop with the dramatic pauses?
She has I believe a job and this thing called a life yk
There is a slowmode here, spit it out all at once
You sent a message between me speaking
So time to remake from scratch, not time to upscale, got it
She didn’t want to upscale a free model
Yes, if you dont want for that to happen write normaly
Would you rather have her mod be pretty mid tier quality, or scratch made and really high quality
I’d go with high quality
I would rather have the mod come out three months earlier with the same quality
So you are impatient
Also, not the same quality
Upscale it
Upscaling a poorly made free model is not the same as making a high quality model from scratch
Look, here is how it is. I‘ll just block you after this as talking with you is just a waste of time but I just wanna tell you one last thing.
You criticized and made fun of my work for „taking too long“ despite you having done absolutely for the mod, let alone being „invested“ by „investing“ into my KoFi account. You’re suggesting just ripping a model from elsewhere, which sure, you can do, is not what I’m aiming for. I am aiming for maximum accuracy while also not using a billion polygons which basically all these other models are like. Part of why I am making it from scratch is the fact that it is simply my model which I can do whatever I want with. One that I can be proud of and one which I was able to heavily improve my modelling skills on. You claim to know everything about mod development despite apparently not knowing horse poop about it. By your logic, why not just port all Forza cars in game using the Jbeam that we already have as it would be a waste of time making new things? Oh wait… that’s just the recipe for a mesh slap…
Why do you even care how much time I spend making a mod?
So to wrap it up, spend your time complaining about actual issues, you have no „investment“ into my works and shouldn’t care how long it takes for me to complete my stuff that I am literally offering FOR FREE. Be glad anyone’s even making this stuff for free. I am making it from scratch because I want to and because I want it to be as accurate as I can make it. It‘s my decision. If you want a lower quality mod, sure, you can want that but I do not care. Just wait for it to be done.
Im not reading that
Literally false
You should bash your head into a brick wall maybe once or twice
Then farewell, hope you have a quick recovery from whatever you have
Hey, im making a cure for cancer, support my progress on patreon, im gonna make it in the slowest way possible tho, so you can support me for longer
Now please stop interacting with this guy
You do know her support page doesn’t just end when the car is finished right?
What guy
Just block them and be done with it
And support is optional?
cant argue with stupid lol
Idk what guy you mean innocent I don't see nobody
Yeah me neither
Alr true, god damn I just hate stupid people so much
Wow thats not exactly nice, are you threatening me? I dont think thats allowed here
A threat implies I claimed I would do something to cause harm to you
I simply gave a suggestion, jolly good day
Cheers 👍

On the topic of mod discussion, Trackpad updated one of his mods a few days ago
Oh hell yeah
If i told you to commit suicide i would be banned
Same thing
Actually it’s not, you see the subject you just mentioned is very sensitive to a large majority of individuals and therefore taken more seriously than say a lighthearted joke as is what I said, hope that helps 👍
Just block them and stop replying to them, it’s not worth your time
True
Yeah, not really. Telling someone to cause harm to themselves is not exactly a harmless joke,
having fun watchin tho
Watching the world burn
i know what side i'm on as well, can't rush art
I'm surprised the drama is happening in modding discussion and not game discussion.
It came from my Saphire gt7 thread
happen in the sapphire thread first tho, guy got banned from there
I think it’s funny that he tried to compare ending ones own life to somebody jokingly saying hit your head against a wall 💀
Think that’s a wee bit of a jump yk?
New horror movie “it came from the saphire gt7 threat”
Jump of a bridge 😁👍
-Harmless joke
(In your opinion i guess)
Not really related to the game
Until you crash it and the free highpoly model gets converted into a spike ball
But the crashing is only affected by how well the jbeam aligns
And the model that's "free" is ripped from a game so it's illegal
As a user you were unaware of that, nothing will happen to you for that
Bot things matter
Super high poly models and jbeam alignment both affect deformation
Well yeah, upscale it, what I said from the begining
What upscaling?
Un-highpoly? You just said that you need more polygons
No
Highpoly models affect deformation in a bad way
Same with bad jbeam alignment
Most game models are very highpoly since they don't need to deform
So you dont want highpoly? The main argument was that a custom model is more poly
Also if you make your own model you have full rights over what you've created
You've got that wrong
Or maybe the model was too low poly
If you are taking legals things into considerstion, there are free models that allow free modification and redistrebution
Thats not my opinion, that was what they told me
Irrc she used a crew2 model for reference
forza
Ok yeah, using as a reference is not illegal
which is very highpoly yet also very inaccurate proportion wise lol, so she had to go by eye with fixing the proportions and she got them right
Or hear me out, use a model with accurate proportions
No
It's like using an image
As long as you don't include it
Fym no, so it is illegal?
There are none
Also the main thing she's been working on are the chassis details, which most games don't include
Not ilegal as long as you don't use it for anything other than reference
Answer, there is none
there's no decent blueprints either so she didnt have much option, yet it worked well and it looks amazing now
- what I said about the chassis details
Most games don't have them
Then why did you say no, and yoh can scale a model back to accurate proportions, which is also easier than from scratch, also it is easier to add chassis detail
can i have apple juice
Glad to see that you have yours already
Sorry I took a sip from the juice to get on the level of this conversation, I dont remember what apple juice is
Whats your point with that image
yk what i forgot as well, do you wanna look it up together
Say no to what?
You can but the model is still not yours
And highpoly models are a pain in the butt to work with
Is said its not illegal, you said no, implying that it is illegal to use it as a reference
Shados said there are no proper references
It is ilegal if your end work includes it
It is not ilegal (as far as I know) if you use it for reference
Maybe I can answer some questions, I have a bachelors degree in 3D art plus years of experience doing work for 3D commercially and am keenly aware of the rules of doing so. So whats the question?
Yeah but you showed an image of me being muted
Oh my bad, i was meant to include a reference image of the f1 my mistake
Can you use models that are ripped as reference as long as they aren't included in the final work?
God how I wish those vector drawings were a lot cheaper
Can you? yes
Can you get in legal trouble if it is found out, possibly
Is the extra quality really worth the price
Do note that if you replicate a ripped model very closely, that can very very easilly accidentally slip you into a copyright issue
as some models have little 'artistic choices' in them that only exist on that 3d model of the vehicle.
If that is found on another model, you know your work was coppied vs referenced
a good example: casetify right now 😛
I think he is talking about the vector drawing
I've used a model I got from the net as reference to check if my proportions were not awful
No not talking about vector drawing
Oh using vectors/blueprints is fine and quite common
although theyre rarely accurate
Yeah, thay what you paid for, thie entire business is for people using those to make other things
Possibly, I never got one to find out
Yea basically. Its up to the artist to be careful how much they replicate the vehicle but referencing blueprints is not a crime in of itself
The poly flow of my model is completely different and they differ in some areas cuz it wasn't 100% accurate
imagemodeling best
I'll remodel my Celica once I buy one and scan it
More excuses to buy a Celica
real af
I think it depends on the way you aquired those blueprints, if you bought it from like the site I listed above, but if you accessed mclaren servers to get the original blueprints the. Thats illegal
this model I did for a college project used a model from Rise of Flight as a reference. I used it to find scale/landmarks and then made the rest based on reference images.
Is it destructible?
Well yea, one is illegal in the act itself
If so thats very cool
Ok so that's what I did
So that's legal?
yes, it was fractured in houdini as the project was a crashed plane asset
That's basically what innocent did with the saleen lol. she used it as a reference but then modelled basically everything using reference images.
Well if someone else did it and just gave it to you thats also not very legal, althought if you didnt know you will be innocent
i used pics from a bring a trailer listing to setup an s14 kinda recently
havent gotten further than placing all the locators
Its legal like giving your son a beer at home before he is of age to drink.
Its not legal, but literally how will you get caught unless you show off that you did that lol. There are a fair few things in life where 'illegal but who will find out' comes in X)
Any chance you could show us the finished project? It sounds very cool
“Its only illegal when cops are around”
here is a still from it
That mad cool, was it meant to be a group project but you just did it yourself?
Nope, meant to be a project for just me
I came up with it, concepted it, and made it start to end
Oooh, i thought it was like a uni project, still cool
It was, it was part of my final set of projects to get my degree 😛
Oooh, that makes more sense
I mean, my model is very much distinct from the Forza model. You may find some slightly overlapping areas on the front end but that’s about it, the geometry is entirely different
I could post some pics of the Forza mesh compared to mine after work
I‘ll see if I can manage to convert my S7 model into some drawings as I have found the ones that do exist to also not be totally accurate
That’s basically what I have done on the S7
maybe with a shader that highlights edges you could make some renders
Yeah I gotta take a dive into how you even make those vector drawings 😅
2d bezier curves bassicaly
I could make a few euros by putting those up on a blueprint site as well
when i was in school a few years ago i did some of that stuff (not acurate at all but yea)
Maybe also images of the frame, though something‘s a bit off on the front end and I cannot pin point what the hell it is
It still works though
Alright, good to know
Best thing also is how I can put up multiple variants of the S7 since I’ll be making all of them
@outer solstice, i dm’d you because I couldnt add antthing to the thread, you finished off with missunderstanding my analogy and blocking me, with is a pretty childish behaviour, considering that you were the first one to add anything, and the last one to say anything
And “off you f*ck” is not really the correct way to say it
womp womp
Oh no a spongebob reaction image, its so over, I should ropemaxx😭
bro dm’s me, says this and thinks he’s won because I blocked him https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1100231448348332054/1179761692704505919/image.png?ex=657af5b2&is=656880b2&hm=878f2c3949b0cf210be41277ddf53057148511af3fa9f33440341ceace5e64b9&
What is automation cars and why are they faster than repository cars most of the time ?
i’m not gonna say anymore cuz this is #mods-discussion and nothing in this convo is relevant but yeah
please reconsider yourself as a person
Me ?
oh nah
Ok
gimme a sec i’ll explain your thing to you
Ok
automation cars are cars made in the video game Automation: The Car Company Tycoon game, which partnered with beamng a couple years ago. People can build cars in that game from pre-made models, objects and allat (and tune their own engines) then import them to beam to drive them about in freeroam. They are usually lower quality and more unrealistic than traditional Beamng mods, but can be made a lot quicker and need a lot less skill
Ok thanks !
Gave +1 Reputation to @outer solstice
the simulation is not as good as normal vanilla vehicles + automation allows you to make some wild stuff with gearing/hp
automation bodies are a complex box, they dont have any removeble/ openable parts, the suspensions are simulated but not as well as vanilla pretuned ones, since take in mind the suspension code has to fit all bodies....
oh that yeah can be done
but no one really does it since its stupid
you can make things that shouldnt exist
this ramp/jet car i made wouldnt be feasable irl
since its a ramp tacked onto a 80s supercar, which would bassicaly just die when hitting a car
- it has a jet engine in the rear
yeah boohoo and you are putting all of your charisma into it and acting like we are talking and this is not a text
bro you cant admit that you lost the argument against everyone
is it really that hard to admit you are wrong
not once was there even a sign of reaching conclusion
everyone kept coming up with new arguments that were mostly not even related to the initial point
wait were you the guy that made the jet mod
or was it some other guy on the repo
theres 2 jet bolides
the preremaster "hyper bolide" and my jet bolide
mine is modeled after a generic jet image and replaces the engine, the hyper bolide had small jets since i think you could fly that
np
bolide pre remaster
the hyper bolide is for the pre remaster
mine is for the remastered bolide
so its the version that was before it got remastered?
oh the vanilla car remaster?
not my mod, the bolide itself
yes
does anyone know how to ADD backfire sounds to a car that has backfire, but no sounds?
Does be having backfire you mean that everything else like the code and the visual effect is setup?
ye its for the genesis f2 mod
i wanna add backfire sounds cause it doesent have any
but it does spit flames
It should be somwhere in the engine jbeam in the soundscape section
Check if anything is commented there
gimme a sec
do you have stuff similar to this in your engine jbeam?
lemme see
should be after torque specs and fuel system
ok dumb question but worth to check, do you have exhaust sound in your game?
ye
alr
could you vc realquick
I dont have a mic
alr
ok

Well I’m trying to add a map into my BeamMP server and then I change the map name in the config and it just defaults back to grid map
It would be best to ask that in the beammp server discord.gg/beammp
are there any good Ford F-Series (any generation) mods?
would be cool to see a mod that gives the 6 wheel bolide 6wd and the original engine
I would like a 1983 ltd crown vic mod

To install mods you have downloaded online, you drag the .zip file into the mods folder
how do i get the mods folder
You drag the zip file you downloaded into the mods folder
i have to restart game i assume?
And if it’s a vehicle part it will show up in the parts selector for that vehicle
Nope
i think i broke my game
In what way?
Delete one and then it should be fine
What did you try to spawn
Idk where to get any, but there is a mod for it
Kirbyguy got a bunch of tracks, they’re all pbr etc- there’s the Nurburgring https://www.beamng.com/threads/nürburgring-nordschleife-gp-strecke.95307/, there’s imola https://www.beamng.com/threads/autodromo-internazionale-enzo-e-dino-ferrari-2014-imola.94459/ there’s spa https://www.beamng.com/threads/circuit-de-spa-francorchamps.94460/ and there’s Virginia international https://www.beamng.com/threads/virginia-international-raceway.94606/ his tracks are really good, check em out
Previously only released under my YouTube channel, I've decided to start uploading my track ports here as many users had issues using my original file...

yea i got his
Is the website modland trustworthy?
Nope
Alr ty
Does anyone know a site where i can get real realistic Porsches,bmws,fords and Lamborghinis from for free/cheap
From beamng.com
It’s the only place you can get irl cars that are high quality
Are they under the real name?
Yes
There’s also DFA (paid) which adds a ton of 90s/2000s lore friendly parts to the D series
@smoky patio does the procyon have auto start stop on the centauri? When i brake, the engine shuts off and turns on when i accelerate
also whats the difference between trail and offroad
How do i find them because 90% of them are not even close to good or made in automation or no longer exist
There won’t be every mod you want because good mods are hard to make
Yea but if i look up Lamborghini the good ones dont exist or the others look like bubles
the gap from the ground and the car at max speed 💀
Where do i find the mods like the ones YouTubers use like the common ones like Bugatti or Porsches
Or Lamborghinis
youtube shorts?
I downloaded a dae file and imported it into the map. Now I want my car not to go through it, but to crash into it.
add a jbeam
There’s a Bugatti Chiron and Veyron mod on the forums
or collison thingy i cant rmember
As well as a countach and a revuelto
The mods you see in some videos on yt are just Leo quality and not very good
This is bloody hilarious btw
That angle is great
Does anyone have different wentward bus frames?
I see a lot in modland but I don't trust the site
its safe
unless theres an exe file
if you find exe files or lua files just remove it
I mean I think the lua scripts are ran in a sandbox for beamng, so it doesnt leave beamng, worst thing it can make is remake 500 versions of the mod and fill your data, but they can be deleted
