[barren magnet]

still a pretty slimy way of doing it if im being honest

but if it comes out free, good deal

if they keep making people pay for it, not so good deal

if it gets traction while it's still being charged for, there's a chance it's dead in the water

rockstar is not nice about stuff like that

[latent ivy]

Dmca

[barren magnet]

it might get a dmca even if it's free

rockstar is not a dead company

[latent ivy]

True

[barren magnet]

and san andreas isnt a dead game

they still "support" it on multiple platforms

and with the recent janky ass remaster, it's been pushed back into the limelight once again

[latent ivy]

ugh reminds me of the halo ce remaster

[barren magnet]

there is currently someone porting los santos from GTAV as well

i havent tested their most recent build

but they're making good headway on optimization

also they're only porting LS from san andreas

[latent ivy]

I wish rockstar would port LS to beamng

[barren magnet]

not the whole map

[latent ivy]

Damn

[tight arch]

Is anyone have the Gravil D-series airbags?

[primal marsh]

Is there a thread for this somewhere?

[woven crow]

yo is kenemation’s e92 mod good or not because i heard that his mods improved

i have rington’s e92 atm but that doesn’t have openable doors or alpina configs so I was thinking about giving kenemation a shot

but it’s relatively expensive so I figured I’d ask around before I buy it

[dense jungle]

avoid kenemation. period

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0JjJnM03bo&pp=ygUWYmVhbW5nIGtlbmVtYXRpb24gbW9kcw%3D%3D see here

in general, avoid real brand paid mods, im not calling paid mods bad but those real brand ones give them a horrible reputation, where there are good paid ones like the gavril scout for example

[woven crow]

that was like a year ago and as i said i heard that his mods have improved and the e92 is a more recent mod

[dense jungle]

still, avoid those mods

[woven crow]

fastlane and phaien have very good quality mods, though some of fastlane’s older mods are a bit questionable. But YL/Sheik/Zvezdan is horrible

[woven crow]

I’m only buying real life mods from phaien and fastlane idrk if there’s any other good modders out there but i stay away from YL, Kenemation, spoolingdiesel and anyone I don’t know

I’ve chatted with phaien and fastlane before so i do know them

[dense jungle]

basically what im saying is

if theres a forum post on the beamng forums, go for it, if there isn't, avoid it, and ask yourself, why would a modder not post on the forums

[wheat gust]

does anyone know the name for the ibishu bx in the game files

[deft kite]

Coupe

[ocean mauve]

its just bx

[ocean mauve]

not anymore, it was renamed with the remaster

[deft kite]

Oops

Shows how much I've modded and played recently

AHH, 0.32 was released on the day I had my accident

[ocean mauve]

accident? hope you are alright 😮

[fierce spire]

new mod idea: ETK version of sprinter

[abstract mango]

New mod idea: beer

[neon magnet]

i second this

[abstract mango]

🍻

[quick shale]

old gen sprinter >>

[fierce spire]

Personally I think the newer gen sprinter is cooler but hey, taste is subjective

[nimble valley]

h series is too american?

oh i didnt see you said etk van

[fierce spire]

I mean, I would also like a newer gen H-series like this, but it's either that or the ETK sprinter idea

[nimble valley]

would be interesting for sure

transit is so popular and customizable

[drowsy leaf]

do it yourself

[jaunty bear]

ok im getting pissed. ive followed youtube guilds to the t and my custom map is not showing up for free roam

https://youtu.be/FiYPhBMg3Tc?si=0GNiGgWY6BUhNbIo

im following this to the T and the map is not in game. where should the map file go? i cannot find any solid info that works

[fierce spire]

Unfortunately I have massive skill issue

[jaunty bear]

do i put the map zip in my documents in a mods folder? or put it with the base game maps under steam? or under the local appdata?????

either way it dose not show up. how should it be structured? map->levels->map->art, main, ect. or just map->art, main, ect

[drowsy leaf]

unpacked mod folder

unpacked>modname>mapname>theotherfolders

[jaunty bear]

where is this under? steam or appdata?

[drowsy leaf]

0.32>mods>unpacked

[jaunty bear]

i have a folder there saying repo. i put my ziped map inside there. and still nothing in game

[drowsy leaf]

create the unpacked folder

[cosmic mulch]

repo folder is the folder the mods you get from the repository are installed in

any forum mods or otherwise non-repo mods you get, you should put those just inside of mods and not in any of the folders within mods

[jaunty bear]

made the unpaked folder and put my map in. still no

[cosmic mulch]

restarted game?

good practice to restart game every time you install or create an unpacked mod

[jaunty bear]

still no. 2 restarts

i dont get it, im getting very upset

is that guild valid? i got his template map and renamed everything he said too. did it all to the T and even with you guys its not showing up

how do you have yours? its just a custom map with the assets of gridmap2 from a youtuber

[cosmic mulch]

modname.zip > levels > your level name > files

[jaunty bear]

fucking specifics

[cosmic mulch]

such is life lol

[untold beacon]

just tried the notaFerrari F40 mod

yuk what a sound

[cosmic mulch]

feel free to refer to any vanilla levels or vehicles for the correct file structure

[jaunty bear]

?

still no

[cosmic mulch]

the unpacked mod shouldn't be a zip, only mods in the normal folder or the repo folder should be zipped

unpacked mods should be just in normal folders

so you can edit them easily and pack it when you're done

[drowsy leaf]

your not gonna have fun in modding then

[cosmic mulch]

^lol

[drowsy leaf]

miss a comma in your code? spend 1 hour trying to find it because the syntax highliter doesnt properly work

[jaunty bear]

i thought this game was going to be ok...

[drowsy leaf]

no this isnt minecraft

mapping is for me VERY hard

and ive been modding since 2021

[jaunty bear]

i dont want to mod, i want want to fluff about in my own map

[drowsy leaf]

you are quite literally
modding

the map editor
is to
make map mods

it is very hard to do

[jaunty bear]

i see modding as legit making a car/house/tool from scrach

[drowsy leaf]

and unless you are good at mapping its gonna look like hogwater

[drowsy leaf]

mapping is the same

this is basically a map editor
but you still have to do a lot of stuff to make it all work

[jaunty bear]

people have already done the work, i copy past and follow guilds

[drowsy leaf]

a guide from 2 years ago

[jaunty bear]

i cant find anything good??!!!

[drowsy leaf]

and unless you are gonna copy exactly what hes done, its not gonna work

its not a guide, its a tutorial to try and explain the basics, but it doesnt explain much more

[drowsy leaf]

yeah since to make a guide you have to be very good at
making videos
explaining complex things
and mapping

[jaunty bear]

im lossing all my making passion because this is too hard. i just wanted to do a few seeming simple things. this is shit

[drowsy leaf]

you dont seem to be cut out for this

[cosmic mulch]

you just need a good bit of patience

[drowsy leaf]

you need to have a LOT of patience, sheer will and motivation

[jaunty bear]

this game has so many powerfull tools and im stuck fucking with files. i hate doing that

[cosmic mulch]

and, anything well made in this game is far more than seemingly simple

[drowsy leaf]

the tools are much more harder to use than what you are currently doing

but like

[jaunty bear]

i legit only want to have a map seprate from the base game (show up in the free roam select) and have a car fall apart when passina a trigger. but that needs a coding degree

[drowsy leaf]

thats complex

if even doable

[cosmic mulch]

hmm I dunno much lua but could be doable

[drowsy leaf]

doable
but uh lua is not fun
at all

[cosmic mulch]

I do lua for fun

[drowsy leaf]

it took me half a day to code in a gauge sweep thing for a tachometer

[cosmic mulch]

I made rolling antilag and a launch control

[drowsy leaf]

i want to someday make a 80s digidash screen but js and vector graphics scare me

[jaunty bear]

ive been able to a ton with fucking around. and ive found lua really really close to what i want but nobody on this server or online seems to be able to help. this code makes the car explode into flames, just as the fire fun command. ALL I WANT is the break command instead. then its perfect.

i can do without the map stuff.

[alpine rivet]

thats awesome, Beamng definetly needs rolling antilag, there has been a mod for this but it has not worked for ages, if you are able to make it maybe like an universal mod, would be cool if you would release it

[drowsy leaf]

mappers are a rare thing

and modders in general

[jaunty bear]

the tools FEEL like there in the game lol. guess not

got baited hard

[drowsy leaf]

out of the 100.000 people theres probably like
200 modders?
and like
10 mappers out of those 200 modders

[jaunty bear]

now im 40 hours in and cant refund

[cosmic mulch]

beamstate.breakAllBreakgroups()?

[drowsy leaf]

yeah that works

[dense jungle]

yknow what, kudos to you for giving it as an idea and not begging for a commission to make an actual sprinter

[drowsy leaf]

im 4200 hours in

[cosmic mulch]

5993

[drowsy leaf]

WYDRAAAAAA

[cosmic mulch]

le stupidCar

[drowsy leaf]

and polish

[cosmic mulch]

it's part of some random things I did to the etk's for a roll racing pack, it needs a good bit of polishing before I would consider releasing it

[fierce spire]

When there's nothing I can do (in terms of mod making), I do what I can (like suggesting it and hoping someone is interested)

[drowsy leaf]

that has worked like
never

[fierce spire]

yeah but it's still worth a shot

besides, i don't got cash lo

[drowsy leaf]

there are already millions of proably better suggestions done

https://www.beamng.com/threads/vehicle-suggestions-see-first-post.79/page-816#post-1735731 817 pages worth of car suggestions

[dense jungle]

if it interested you, i started a box van but yeah

[fierce spire]

Oh, yeah, the Gavril step van, right? I'm interested in that

Sure, it isn't as modern as the Sprinter/Transit I suggested but in the words of SoundSmith, "we take those".

Good work, man!

[dense jungle]

i could not get the flexbody to show up

[fierce spire]

That means there's a chance someone will listen, no?

[drowsy leaf]

vy node error

[drowsy leaf]

i have never seen a single modder take a suggestion for an entire car

[cosmic mulch]

another thing is if you have a mod idea, there's a good chance a lot of other people also have

[drowsy leaf]

you have to understand that it takes years of modding to be able to do a proper car mod + depending on your workflow you are looking at 4-8 months for it

[fierce spire]

yeah, i understand that

Still, just putting it out there, just in case

[drowsy leaf]

and like
i dont need anyones ideas
ive already got too many ideas that i came up myself

[dense jungle]

i think im just beyond given up, because the error was showing a duplicate file but deleting that duplicate file and reloading didn't do anything

[drowsy leaf]

does your mesh have a material assigned

[dense jungle]

wait is that why

[drowsy leaf]

yes

[dense jungle]

a material and not a texture, right?

[drowsy leaf]

the game has an aneurism if you dont add a material to it in blender and refuses to load it

[dense jungle]

so all of this because i missed the material

[drowsy leaf]

since it cant map the no material texture to that material since theres nothing to render

[dense jungle]

im so fucking stupid

[drowsy leaf]

happens more often than youd think

[cosmic mulch]

check the console

[drowsy leaf]

^^

[cosmic mulch]

most if not all stuff related to meshes and textures show up there

[dense jungle]

said there was a duplicate jbeam file

let me try search my screenshots

[cosmic mulch]

the console has a lot of stuff but look out for any warnings related to meshes and flexbodies etc

or materials if some material is broken

[dense jungle]

this error

[cosmic mulch]

that just means that same part exists twice, not sure if it has something to do with your mesh not appearing unless the flexbodies were rewritten in that part

if not then its the lack of materials assigned

[dense jungle]

but it wouldn't do anything if i deleted that duplicate file and reloaded, disabled & reenabled, unpacked & repacked, nothing fixed it but, this is likely the case

im so stupid

[cosmic mulch]

yep

I mean hey you learned something lol

[dense jungle]

perhaps this box van might be my big break

lets see if i still have it

assigning the pickup material for now

[jaunty bear]

god for letting my dreams be real

[cosmic mulch]

I suggest you get Agent Ransack

great for searching lua functions

I just looked up the one you used, found a list of the functions the radial menu uses

[jaunty bear]

what is that

[cosmic mulch]

https://www.beamng.com/threads/tutorial-on-finding-lua-functions.81025/

[jaunty bear]

wow this is really complicated to do simple things

[cosmic mulch]

lua is like entirely undocumented so a lot of people stay away from it as a whole

[dense jungle]

ok so

good news, there arent any errors showing up

[jaunty bear]

see, i just need to find work people have already done, i just want to make a few funny things, not become a programmer or modder

[dense jungle]

bad news, there arent any errors showing up

and neither the flexbody or jbeam has showed up

nvm i found it

it just collapses through the world

[cosmic mulch]

is the origin of your mesh located in 0,0,0 in blender?

[dense jungle]

it is

do modifiers affect the flexbody in game?

because right now i have a mirror modifier

[cosmic mulch]

they can either be applied or not applied when exporting so that's up to you

[dense jungle]

actually im stupid again

nvm it didn't work

all the errors too are all related to the hover mod, which i have disabled weirdly

this is my situation right now

[dense jungle]

well I put the jbeam into AI to check for syntax errors adn

its better than nothing?

well it did something

[cosmic mulch]

I guess your jbeam structure just isnt self supporting or none of it has collision?

[dense jungle]

i've narrowed it down to the nodes

well

by technicality, i created a meshlap

highest quality modland mod

im at least making progress, I just think I need to sort out the triangles

@cosmic mulch @drowsy leaf although the materials isn't as simple as applying it to fix it, you both at least motivated me to restart the mod, so all I can say is thanks

[lyric cedar]

Gave +1 Reputation to @cosmic mulch (current: #127 - 14)

keep at it man

[dense jungle]

also thanks for adding this, it'll save a lot more time for questions

[drowsy leaf]

🙏 good work

[untold beacon]

all you need are triangles

[dense jungle]

and i broke it again

i am actually back to where I started

[dense jungle]

and im back kinda

[barren magnet]

no, and id prefer to keep their name less public since 1) its super early and theres no telling if it’ll work and get released, and 2) i dont want them potentially catching a dmca

its been posted publicly but id prefer to not draw much attention to it

[primal marsh]

understandable

[barren magnet]

you’re in MfD, if you search for a while i guarantee youll find it

[drowsy leaf]

@cloud pike a good thing to mention in modding faq is to assume that whatever you want to do will be twice (or more) difficult and will take twice (or more) time than expected

[cloud pike]

ill try to word that in there, ive aimed to give that expectation by adding the part on patience

actually nevermind, i dont have enough characters left to write that text

[eternal basin]

Guys do you think that beam.mp is safe

[drowsy leaf]

it is

[eternal basin]

K thanks

Because i saw a redit post that it install a back boor on some ones computor

[drowsy leaf]

im interested
link?

[eternal basin]

Ill look for it but i cant open the link just now because i dont heve reception

[brazen cypress]

Does anyone have a dmc-12 mod?

[azure hazel]

anyone know of any floater wheel pack

[verbal kelp]

Really doubt that as BeamMP is a very popular modification, and no one has ever reported such issue. It's most likely a false positive

I also believe BeamMP is open source, which makes putting any sort of virus or backdoor into it a really stupid idea

[eternal basin]

@drowsy leaf i fond the redit thread https://www.reddit.com/r/BeamNG/comments/jy2pm6/beam_mp_installed_remote_access_software_onto_my/?rdt=38408

@verbal kelp i have linked the redit thread above

[verbal kelp]

Like I've stated, this is most likely a false positive. No one else has ever had this issue, and this post is from 3 years ago.

[eternal basin]

Ok thanks

[bronze shard]

^likely false positive. happens more frequently than you think. hell, unmodified beam has been "caught" with similar stuff over the years. last time it happened was a bad windows defender update iirc

[eternal basin]

I just want some more options before i download it thanks though

[fathom thorn]

Lucasbe made a good one on the beam forums

[rough iris]

so I just found these rims in the files, are they used anywhere?

they are 8 lug 19.5x9

As far as I know, no vehicle other than the d-series family uses 8-lug hubs, but as seen in the picture, they are way to big for that!

also they don't seem to be that old, maybe a leftover of a canceled feature of the t-series remaster?

[cosmic mulch]

uuuuuuuuuuuh nope

those would be medium duty wheels

something like this

very much like the ones on my durham

[dire shadow]

BeamNG recommends to not have more than 30 mods installed at a time, may cause lag or glitches
laughs with 500 simultaneous mods active and no serious lags

[jaunty bear]

how do you make the booster work?

environment trigger too?

they look self explanatory but they dont do anything when testing 😦

id like to give a car a slight rotational nudge while in air, and change time of day/grav with the other

also is it possible to trigger the execute of the scriptAI editor while in game (not in the editor hitting play)

[latent ivy]

[latent ivy]

i get like 5 seconds

i have no mods enabled rn lol

ive been trying to think of good mod ideads

[trail flare]

mods can u add
" Never get mods from places like Modland, World of Mods etc etc"

and " Never leak paid mods"

cuz there are leakers running rampant

dont ban me

[dreamy arrow]

Leakers wont be bothered by this lol

[trail flare]

oh ok

[dreamy arrow]

And Modland is not a site that was supposted to have leaked mods. Moderators are deleting leaked mods if a creater asks them to, so its not modlands fault, but rather leaker's bad

[trail flare]

why not add rules to modland?

[dreamy arrow]

I... u are just too young to understand ig

could anyone here make a v8 supercar mod please

[latent ivy]

wasnt begging mate was wondering as for i dont have the pc to make mods

[mossy frigate]

You don’t need a good pc, you can make mods on a pc that can’t even run beamng on lowest graphics settings

[toxic cedar]

Then you also dont have the pc to play it anyway 🤷

[mossy frigate]

He can play assetto corsa so making mods is possible too

[drowsy leaf]

the bolide?

[latent ivy]

oh ok i tougth you needed to have a real grunty pc

[drowsy leaf]

https://www.beamng.com/threads/2001-07-civetta-mondello-paid.85810/

this is also a v8

sex

[fathom latch]

I imagine he's referring to the v8 supercars race series

[latent ivy]

yeap these

[latent ivy]

laggy af tho

[fathom latch]

You're probably better off tuning the touring car Pessima

unless you're willing to drop Hundreds, possibly thousands of dollars on a custom mod

[latent ivy]

see i dont have moeny im only 15

[drowsy leaf]

womp womp then

[latent ivy]

yeap

[mossy frigate]

No, all the Programms work fine on a pc that can barely run beamng on lowest graphics

ahh ok thx mate

[limpid token]

True but it is optional (although it is nice)

My textures are 10% blender 90% paint.net

I don't know of anyone who has actually bought it lmao

Where do you get it then?

does it take performance?

[barren magnet]

if you have a potato pc yea

but on a decent computer, unless youre using rgti effects like ray tracing and pathtraced lights

no

not meaningfully at least

you should uninstall mods which you do not use to have more fps

[hearty raven]

does anyone know if there is someone making a new f1 mod? carbonworks f4 car is great but there is like no down force

not extremely hard

the hardest part would be finding all the nodes to connect since it likely wouldn't just be perfect right off

[hardy valley]

[strong vector]

possible for someone who isnt stupid but has basically 0 experience with creating mods ?

[celest sundial]

ion really have much experience either I just do some simple stuff

but the kit car tutorial should have something about attaching suspension

[jaunty bear]

so im making a little map. and how do you get a smooth road? do you use the smooth terrain, the mesh road, or a track builder track in the ground? i tried to use the mesh road to make the terrain follow but its never smooth enough.

and how do you make the decal roads to be happy with ai? ive gotten them to work but how do race?

Highpoly modelling continues to go well

[analog zinc]

Hello I’m new to beamNG.drive and I am trying to figure out how to mod cars into the game, I don’t have knowledge on transferring files. Can I please get some help?

I’ve tried videos but they all go too fast and don’t provide enough knowledge

Would anyone be willing to offer some 1 on 1 help?

[lost storm]

Hii Redd, how you're doing today!??
I may will be able to help you lol!; just to confirm, you want to transfer mods of real life cars in BeamNG!??

[twin zinc]

First thing that should be said to this is for the love of god don't go to modland or similar sites and download real life car mods

[lost storm]

Indeed, you also can search for videos on YouTube showing one of the best mods, that will share with you, safe links for the mods!; The Forums, in BeamNG website, it's other Excellent way to download mods!!📖🌿💛

For add them in the game, you can start finding the " repo " folder, where you can find in " Mods/repository " tab ( In game ) and select the option " Mods Folder ", that will automatically open the folder for you!

[twin zinc]

Or even better, use the ingame repo

[lost storm]

Aah, that's true! Thx Shaxei!!

how do i make a replay play with a camra path when i play the clip?

CyberFoxar, was recently post a mod call : Cherrier Bubble, in the forums! It's in WIP, but, it's seems a good new! :D

[dense tangle]

dont use userbench

your 2011 xeon is your problem lmao not the vram

[urban olive]

Nope 24 core 48 threads

At overclocked 3.3 ghz

[dense tangle]

well i suppose one of your cpus isnt being used at all

[urban olive]

Migth be

[dense tangle]

i dont think beam has dual cpu support due to the task managment thing

like you cant really split a workload over 2 cpus and keep it synchronous

[urban olive]

Other games has that like scrap mecanic for example

[urban olive]

U think maybe a mod could be developed to support it?

[dense tangle]

no its physically impossible to share a task between cpus unless you do it async but then itll cause problems

since one cpu will not be fast enough to communicate with the other if one i.e. is doing the physics sim of the general game while the other handles vehicle physics

youd have problems with stutters and weird collision prolly

[urban olive]

Oh ok thanks anyway

[zealous ingot]

no idea how to create mods or anything but can someone make itbs for the bolide

[fierce spire]

That's weird

ALPR decoration mod for Roamer and Grand Marshal somehow doesn't register them as cop cars

Same goes for the emergency Bulldog H-series

[dense jungle]

[inland locust]

Are there any infos or threads in the Formum for this info? Its official Released 10 Days ago

[full badger]

brothers how can i create mods?

[tired coyote]

No but a beamng employee checked it out while monitoring traffic

It does connect to cloudflare servers

[nocturne rock]

I'll probably make 6x6 version

[summer valley]

Hello, I want to create a design like this for the bmw e36 mod, but I have no idea how to do that. Is it hard to do that and is there any tutorial for this maybe? Thanks!

[quick pollen]

Yeah there is a skin tutorial on YouTube

[bronze shard]

skins are one of the easier mods to make, it mostly depends on the quality of the uv map (set on the car devs side of things, not your responsibility) and the complexity of the design you want to make. there should be a text tutorial or two floating around on the wiki, i would recommend looking for a uv map style file inside the mod and painting over that in paint.net or your preferred image editing program

[brazen cypress]

Im sorry, are you using a server to play games?

[split vale]

Tubular frame, Very early on, Not finished by any means.

[thick niche]

using pre exsisting exhaust mesh as tube frame?

https://tenor.com/view/i-see-no-problem-here-crazy-eyes-gif-12788383

[split vale]

I will re-texture it obviously, Maybe dont jump to conclusions jesus lol

Plus what do you think people use in real life to make a tubular frame lmaoo

[thick niche]

oh i'm just teasing XD

[thick niche]

they definitely don't use exhaust tube for tubular frames in real life though. It's way to weak.

[split vale]

any T304 Stainless steel can be used as frame tubing, Just cap the ends off and weld them shut cleanly and youll have no issue, Ive done it irl 👍

Dont use Mild steel though

[thick niche]

i used mild steel once XD never again

[split vale]

Looks less messy now, Need to shape the core support and the headlight mounts

[barren magnet]

use this geometry node setup. it builds tubes off of vertices and you use vertex bevels to make your radiuses

also cuts down excessive loops

those exhaust meshes wont be efficient or deform well

only adds loops at each vertex, so you dont have a ton of loops along a straight piece of pipe

i use this almost exclusively when making anything tube related

radius is obviously half the diameter of the pipe you want, resolution is how many segments in the circle, for your tube frame i’d stick to like 8

[thick niche]

hey that's a pretty good plugin

[karmic peak]

hey guys

i saw a cessna 172 skyhawk in a beammp server does anyone know of the mod and send it to me?

[summer valley]

Hello, I've been trying to make a custom paint design for the bmw e36 revamp mod, but it doesnt show up in the "paint design" section. Does anyone know why?

[latent ivy]

does anybody have a plane mod

[frank cove]

The MTN Goat is great. Search the forums

[dry mason]

is there a mod so i can have wheels that dont explode at 300?

[shell thicket]

hey im sorta new to beam is there a way someone can help me with getting mods for cars and stuff because i dont understand

[barren magnet]

https://discord.com/channels/710082165253079061/1259470782187175966

[shell thicket]

i see im quite a simple guy i just wanted some help setting all of it up

[barren magnet]

that’s exactly what that channel is for

there are multiple guides in there

that would explain it the exact same way anyone else would in here

[shell thicket]

yeah im special mate i dont understand ill be honest im not as smart due to me getting hit by a car

[barren magnet]

what parts are you getting hung up on

not trying to be an ass, genuine question

[shell thicket]

like making the engine parts show and like irl cars and stuff like that

[barren magnet]

not sure what youre needing on the first one, but for irl cars you’ll need to get them from the forums, basically anything with a [released] tag should have a download link

in game in the mods section, the tab on the left will be for the mods youve downloaded

in there theres a button that will say something like open mods folder

clicking that will open the directory where any of the mods you downloaded from the in-game repo will be

if you want irl cars, the ones you download from the forums you will just need to drop in that folder

[worn fable]

Bigger Rims??

Is there any mod packs that add rims for like SUVs and the luxury sporty look like these rims?

Aka are there any mods around that add rims in sizes like 21/22/23 inches with corresponding tyre sizes?

[fleet oracle]

Hey guys, I need some help. I downloaded the RLS Career Overhaul mod yesterday, and it works great except for the fact that there's no roaming police. I have the right version installed, and everything else on the mod shows up, but for some reason, no popo! I even reinstalled my game and started on a new profile to see if that was the issue, and it was not. I'm lost on what to do next

[twin zinc]

mfw GIMP is so bad with precise angle stuff I'd rather just make a dash texture out of geometry and bake it in blender

[barren magnet]

that is actually the correct way

[night wren]

should a mod ever contain a .exe file ?

and what are some other files it shouldnt include

[cyan drum]

no

[twin zinc]

No. Do not run any executable file you find in a downloaded mod.
Mods should only contain jbeam, dae, png, dds, json, lua, and if it has custom dash screens, http and js

[opal flower]

Hello, I am asking for help because idk how to make mods and I really love MK1 pressima but as I see it doesn't have any police cars or good mods for USA maps and I am in rp server where I would love to have MK1 pressima as police cars if anyone knows how to make mods could they DM me or ping me here?

[thick niche]

^ not on a d series frame

[twin zinc]

We getting places now. Not bad for my first gauge texture

[twin zinc]

Anyone suggest a name for this 90's mk1 suzuki bandit like bike?
I sort of have one but I'm unsure about it. Probably going to be a Hirochi..

[strange kettle]

Hirochi Rubber?
cuz Rubber is similar to Robber

[twin zinc]

Rubber is a word for condom so nah lol

In the files right now it's named 'outlaw' but idk. Kinda sounds like something GTA would name such a knockoff bike.

[quick pollen]

Ibishu stealer :trol:

[mossy frigate]

That’s the easiest and best way to do it

[quick shale]

you were pretty close

[thick niche]

I would do like Hirochi Katana or Hirochi Blade

[quick pollen]

Katana sounds nice but already exist

[dense tangle]

Hirochi Samurai?

Hirocki KK xxx (xxx represents engine displacement maybe?) (Kakku Ken, or, gliding sword in japanese)

so like a 700cc would be the Hirochi KK700

[quick plover]

Looks like a Honda grom

[thick niche]

are you going to have a rider with it?

[thick niche]

ooh, i like this. Kakku Ken, kk700

[twin zinc]

already has a jbeam one, it's needed for balance

[thick niche]

i mean a modeled rider

[twin zinc]

Yes

[thick niche]

noice

[summer valley]

Waiting for approval for my skin👍

[dire jay]

it will be when someone downloads it

[frank cove]

Approval to the repo?

Real brands and cigarettes are not allowed iirc

Just as an FYI

[summer valley]

Oh really, but the bmw mod is also a real brand?

[frank cove]

Is it on the repo? If it is it shouldn't be lol

Real brands are allowed on the forums

But not the repo

[summer valley]

Ah, it is on the forum, that could explain it

[magic peak]

[barren magnet]

did you clear cache

i did indeed, didnt help

its caused by a mod for sure, when i disabled mods the issue goes away

[final niche]

Does anyone know what causes this/how to fix it? I'm having the same issue. It worked fine for me the other day but something caused it to stop working.

[lost storm]

It can be a update for the mod, or you can try other options, as clear the cache, turn off and on again the mod!; I don't have much sure, i'm sorry!

[final niche]

I tried reinstalling as well as clearing the cache, unfortunately neither seemed to fix it

[cyan drum]

wait for the next update of it

[final niche]

oh did the hotfix break it or something?

[lost storm]

Oh no.. it can be, most of the problem, a issue with the mod! It seems that, others interaction in the car it's normal!

Hmm, I saw some problems with the I-Series after the Hotfix, but.. sadly, it can be too!

Currently working on a Honda ish sound for the Pessima, I will probably make an Vtech engine option for it in the future but Currently just using base 2.0 engine as test mule.

[modest turtle]

Sounds pretty good!

[split vale]

Sounds pretty much darn near close, Maybe raise the pitch a little bit and itll be spot on, The Vtec Option should be a Head option instead of an entire engine option because irl its just a Vtec head on most of the B/D/F and so on and so forth engines.

[hollow zinc]

is there any alternative to advanced steering mod?

[near dragon]

I love your thinking mate! I'll upload another one I've done, I went for an older 4 Cylinder sound for the Miramar

With this sound I've gone for an older kind of sound i.e more rattling and less refined valvetrain engine sound, I feel it suits the Miramar.

[split vale]

I like this alot, Perfectly fits the Miramar, If anything I would've preferred this over what the Miramar sounds like in the base game right now.

[heady bane]

Amazing!

[gentle stone]

For a split second it sounds like a 6cyl diesel right after launching

[near dragon]

Yeah!😆

[gentle stone]

Is it intentional or am I just stupid?

[near dragon]

Abit of a rushed audio clip on my behalf, Will be replaced with a proper one

[gentle stone]

Oh, ok

[near dragon]

Yeah it was a long night and I just wanted it to be done😆

[gentle stone]

Still sounds 🔥

[cloud pike]

some of the best sounds ive heard made for the game in a while man, good stuff!

[latent ivy]

sounds good

[near dragon]

Thank you Dim!

[near dragon]

Thanks man!

[gentle stone]

From where did you get these sounds?

[near dragon]

Some are from other games, Some are from videos and some are my irl recordings 🙂

[gentle stone]

Any specific vehicle?

[near dragon]

Not really, The engine and exhuast sounds are mixed with a few different cars and videos. I feel it gives a more real incessantcy to the sounds

[gentle stone]

Oh, I can help you with a 4l 4 cyl diesel lol

Xd

[near dragon]

That would be great! I'm currently out recording diesel straight 6 sounds

[gentle stone]

It's an industrial engine

[gentle stone]

I could maybe also access something like that

Actually

[gentle stone]

Is it just me or is there no sound?

[heady bane]

There is no sound

[near dragon]

Wait what

Oh, There isnt

[heady bane]

Should i send a video?

[near dragon]

I've got it coverd 🙂

All fixed 🙂

yaay, It sounds great MRVCSL80!!🌿📖

[heady bane]

Here's mine

[lost storm]

Sounds perfectly, in my opinion!!

[gentle stone]

Was any of the cars you used turbocharged?

[near dragon]

The BX one was yes, You can hear a faint turbo noise, I tried to fade it out as much as possible but sadly still there

[gentle stone]

Yh, when you start reving there is like a little whine from the air (but still cool)

[heady bane]

Discord compression always makes my video quality worse 😔

Bell 407 helicopter mod

I tried to make some skins for that copter

But on the tail, due to a bug or something else, all the inscriptions there turn into italics

[gentle stone]

Probably just a mod issue since the last update

[shell estuary]

Looks like yes

I had to put the inscriptions in reverse italics to somehow make them look normal, but because of this they are moving somewhere.

That's why the inscription on the tail is so crooked

nvm it's also on the vanilla cars

@frank kelp the RHD Scout configs are a bit wrong. The panel van configs should have the sliding door on the left side, not the right.

[frank kelp]

IRL most panel vans don't get the door switched to the other side when being made for RHD markets

/\ this being an RHD model

[sudden sphinx]

That has the door on the left...

[frank kelp]

Welp guess I'm an idiot then lol

HOW YOU GET MULTI PLAYER

[hearty obsidian]

[split vale]

How would you be able to make those mods if you don't have experience in the Engine side of BeamNG modding.

[strange kettle]

Engine modding isn’t that hard tbh, a decent portion of stuff is described even in the jbeam files. Although some of your described failures might need a bit of extra creativity.
Also please don’t capitalise every word it is SO painful to read…

Engine modding is t hard, but making it be more "realistic" would require new engine lua code

And what he just describes does happen, engines do vibrate, and the transmission does break after a while of sucking ass at shifting

[split vale]

Clutches burn out both in automatics and in manuals, But in different ways, The automatic has Clutch Packs which ride on a band in some older transmissions and manuals obviously have the Flywheel/Clutch/Pressure plate combo, To create realistic engine mounts would be cool too depending on if you have polyurethane bushings or factory rubber ones etc..

And the Automatics also have a Torque Converter that you have to worry about which include a pump/impeller that can also wear out over time with extended use of the fluid beyond its service life or from excess throttling over time.

On the manuals you also have the throw-out bearing (Pilot Bearing) aswell which is usually the cause of a pedal thats stuck to the floor lol..

While I think this is very ambitious first engine project that will require a tone of LUA, I woukd suggest asking in MFD. I wish you the absolute best of luck https://discord.gg/3Fy86de

Do you use normal ignition sounds or have you also got new ones?

[near dragon]

Normal 🙂

[gentle stone]

Any plans on changing them?

👀

[near dragon]

I haven't really thought about it 🙂

[gentle stone]

Ah, ok

[rotund wasp]

is modland trustworthy for car downloads?

[cyan drum]

no

[sharp ridge]

any1 know why my f1 2024 mod of f4 carbonworks isnt working? i tried so many times it just doesnt work

[tough wharf]

What doesnt work?

[sharp ridge]

f1 2024 mod for f4 carbonworks. I downloaded it ingame Respitory mods but it still doesnt let me drive the new cars

[tough wharf]

It doesnt show up or there is no material or what?

[sharp ridge]

like when i try to use the f4 car it should show all the f1 2024 liveries on there but it doesnt show up

[tough wharf]

Redownload the mod, Clear cache and double check it

[dense jungle]

#mods-faq

[sharp ridge]

how do i clear cache

[rotund wasp]

go to history and click clear and click clear cache option

[tough wharf]

F1 mods are known for having issues tbh

[sharp ridge]

Where is history mate? like what

[rotund wasp]

On ur browser...

Ctrl+H

[tough wharf]

Bruh not browser Beamng!

[strange kettle]

Why would you clear your search history to fix a mod like what are you yapping about

[tough wharf]

🤣

[strange kettle]

here’s how you ACTUALLY clear cache

[tough wharf]

The first option

[sharp ridge]

ty omg

[tough wharf]

Works?

[sharp ridge]

no wait

does this take away all my mods?

[tough wharf]

nah

[sharp ridge]

good

[tough wharf]

cache are temp files used to make the mods run more smoothly so its only one-time use

[sharp ridge]

18 hours bloody hell

[strange kettle]

The estimate’s just a big drama queen dw

[cyan drum]

that's a f4

[sharp ridge]

carbonworks F4

its very good

[tough wharf]

Looks like you gotta delete it manually if im right?

[cyan drum]

the what

[tough wharf]

manually deleting the cache file cuz the intergrated is absolute crap

[cyan drum]

I always do it normally

[tough wharf]

better to use the given one

Anyone got any information regarding modifying/creating engines in beamng drive cuz on their website no info is there

[sharp ridge]

about a day now

wow

oh its done

[strange kettle]

„18 hours” wasn’t even 18 minutes

see i told ya it’s a drama queen

[sharp ridge]

didnt even work

it took all my downloaded tracks too,

[tough wharf]

Aw shit

but how?🤔

it isnt supposed to delete anything from the game!

[ocean mauve]

you had them installed in the wrong location then

it deletes stuff that was put into the content folder that isnt supposed to be there

mod should go in your userfolder

[bronze garnet]

While trying to create groundcover and adjust the Groundcover UV Editor and click OK, Beam crashes with a 0xC0000005 - STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION. This happens on any map I've tried and clearing cache didnt help.

[dreamy wren]

Where is the Me-262?

[abstract root]

beamng bug, wait for 0.33

or hotfix idk

[worldly mural]

the creator’s account got deleted/he deleted it, the me-262 is no longer available to download on the repository BUT there’s a reupload of it on the forums: https://www.beamng.com/threads/me-262-and-ciws-unofficial-announcement.98350/#post-1725424

[languid python]

I noticed some cars make a up shifting fart in the game, would it be the transmission or the ECU?

I swapped the i5 2.5L from the vivace to the CCF, on the vicace it makes the up shift noise but on the ccf it doesn’t anymore

[modest turtle]

It's called DCT Farts!

That's what it's called

[languid python]

So it would be the transmission

[modest turtle]

it comes from transmission

[languid python]

Okay

[modest turtle]

Yessir!

[languid python]

Thank u.

[modest turtle]

No problem!

[exotic falcon]

Are there any small older SUVs on the repo (+ forums) other than the prodigy?

[turbid trellis]

where can I get this train mod?

[wide dew]

Can someone send me a link to a crash mod

please

[hearty obsidian]

a crash mod?

[visual marlin]

currently tinkering with a mod and want to change the engine sound. Just wondering. how

anyone?

[near dragon]

https://wiki.beamng.com/Sound.html

[visual marlin]

well yeah but i want to use a custom sound

https://youtube.com/shorts/thDMvglWDUs?si=n229loN0F_41_lSf something that sounds like this

[near dragon]

That tells you how to do it

[visual marlin]

aha

[near dragon]

I learnt to make custom sounds using that wiki

[visual marlin]

and what if i wanna make a custom skin (for da peugot 206 ye)

also what software do i use for .pc and .jbeam files?

also its a modded car that im working with

[near dragon]

Notepad ++

[near dragon]

Makes no difference

[visual marlin]

aha well umm you see.

Mann i dont know lua or coding so i have absolutly no ideo what to do

anyone?

[near dragon]

Looks pretty normal to me, Just open the file in notepad or notepad++

[pallid lynx]

All I saw was cool drive names

[split vale]

It doesn't work anymore thats super old (as far as I know) I used to use that mod literally over 2 years ago

[turbid trellis]

Use vs code with jbeam extension, then ask claude ai. I successfully modified various vehicles or lua triggers with claude ai.

[turbid trellis]

Are you able to share the mod via DM? I'll try to check.

[copper bane]

might anyone know why whenever I try to enable any mod my game just goes into a permanent loading screen?

[split vale]

I dont have it anymore, But I do remember that mod.

[onyx widget]

That's interesting.
I remember overwriting the vanilla file to make a sound mod and a Late ECU part easier and, surprisingly, it lasted without any glitches to this day.

I'll probably make it a separate mod.

[shrewd ginkgo]

does anyone wanna collaborate on me with making a school bus mod for beamng.drive?

[delicate glacier]

i wish someone fixed this mod, window texture is weird..

[fathom latch]

modland mod being garbage? Say it isn't so

[abstract mango]

it's fucked because it used ETK i series materials

and those have been changed

[cold bloom]

Guys i need some help!! i deleted my all mods and now i need best sound mod ! any ideas (please link it to me)

[green pier]

fix it urself

[delicate glacier]

I have no fucking idea how so its impossible

[delicate glacier]

yea

[ocean mauve]

you can learn, so it is possible.

[velvet meteor]

anyone know if theres a 1993 dodge stealth mod for beamng?

[neon schooner]

anyone here using RLS Carreer overhaul mod

im having some issues with it

[thick niche]

Its probably the most easy fix possible

https://youtu.be/l5q6C6K-Atw?feature=shared

What i typically do

[ruby owl]

Has anyone ever made a V10 F1 car mod?

[inland sphinx]

Any good mods I should download? Any realistic ones besides from modland.net I don’t trust it

[strange kettle]

And you shouldn’t, good instinct 🙏
You can find IRL car mods on the BeamNG forums, a high quality one off the top of my head would probably be the Peugeot 205 by JorgePinto

I’m more of a lore-friendly guy so I’m not exactly knowledgeable in those mods sadly lol

[delicate glacier]

well thanks ill try it, i didnt think there were any tutorial

[delicate glacier]

[delicate glacier]

oh got it working

[mild bay]

how do i share a map i made in the map editor

[obtuse radish]

For some reason this happens on a few cars, including vanilla cars. Anyone know how to fix it? I figured it was broken mods but I can find anything.

[scenic dock]

how can i swap custom engines for the d-series only to the bx?

[tawny lynx]

Rant: according to Beamng’s official depreciated Wiki, the burnside brand was defunct in 1985, I just don’t get why there are mods out there with burnside brand (mainly rebadges) that goes beyond it’s defunct date

[rough mica]

lol

[tawny lynx]

Idk do the Official Beamng wiki (which is depreciated but it’s on official beam website) infos are cannon?

[rough mica]

Dude they're mods...

Aka not official game content, which clearly the authors haven't looked at/do not care

[celest sundial]

I think it's pretty cool as a more luxury subsidiary of gavril

[rough mica]

^, just not sure who JTD is mad at, and frankly not sure why, as this doesn't matter to literally anyone else lol

[modest turtle]

Clear Cache!

[inland sphinx]

How do I do that

[modest turtle]

Here ya go!

[inland sphinx]

Appreciate it!

[fathom thorn]

That wiki doesn’t have a source
Plus it’s possible to have rebadges/reboots

Imperial (Chryslers luxury brand) went defunct in 1983, but the name was used on a 1990-1993 model

[green pier]

quick youtube search

[modest turtle]

No worries!

Thanks! Im sure to test it out!

[barren magnet]

[drowsy leaf]

[modest turtle]

No worries!

[scenic dock]

help 😭

[hybrid cradle]

Does anyone know a good bmw e61 mod? I cant find any decent ones. free or paid dont matter

[mild bay]

is there a mod that auto spawns traffic

im tired of having to spawn it every time

[strange kettle]

Ctrl+Shift+T spawns traffic, a bit easier than going through menus

But I don’t think there’s a mod like that

[mild bay]

idk if i'm allowed to talk about beammp but im trying to make it so everyone can spawn cars

[safe sky]

dont really care, i fw them heavy

[drowsy leaf]

It's like Buick

One point of that roamer rebadge was that gavril brought the brand back as a bit more luxurious version

Buick is long dead, from 2000 onwards they've just been Opel/other gm shit with a different badge so they'd sell to the 4 old men that still thought Buick was good

[spice cairn]

Sick

[gilded minnow]

So I managed to find a 3D model Id like to import into my game, is it ok if the model has wheels already attached or do the wheels need to be detached?

Like this

[split vale]

Wheels and suspension need to be detatched as you'll be required to code all the nodes for the suspension aswell as setting up that wheel to work as one in Beamng.

[ocean mauve]

there isn't really a way to just 'import' the model and get a working car, you'll need to manually separate the different parts of the model and jbeam them

[gilded minnow]

Fair fair
