Its a 3 wheel Honda gyro moped. Just wait till I get the 70cc kit on it and an expansion chamber!

[dusk gust]

are you planning on adding a steering wheel by the way?

[quick pollen]

This is crazy 😭

[elder kernel]

Have to keep the handlebars to stay within moped regulations

[dusk gust]

Oh.For the moped run thing huh?

[elder kernel]

Yeah so I can hopefully drive it on the road legally. I'm aiming for a daily driver

[dusk gust]

..Im sorry?

Daily driver??

[elder kernel]

Run errands etc...

[ocean mauve]

Very nice work!

As for your question about people wanting to recreate the livery;

1. This is definitely the right place to post it!
2. Some photos straight from each side would help a lot, something like this

[elder kernel]

Is rear tray separate on the pigeon? I can easily remove to get back of cab

[elder kernel]

And it was built to scale off the papercraft model which should help too

[ocean mauve]

Yes, it's a separate part in-game too

[elder kernel]

Cool

[ocean mauve]

Oohh nice.
And the entire thing is just so cool!!

And the other stuff you build too, I see you pop up on my instagram from time to time ;)

[elder kernel]

Thanks! I'm slowly trying to make longer videos to grow YouTube too but that's another story!

When I started I had no idea who Muye was but It's been so cool to message all the Beamng crowd over the last couple years while building it. It even turns out the guy who worked on designing the pigeon front suspension was also from NZ!

[bronze shard]

yeah the basic colour palette shouldnt be too hard for anyone, i think you might technically be able to do the corrugations with a custom normal map if you wanted to be near 100% accurate but i wouldnt bother lmao. would have to replace the castrol branding with something else or just omit it, assuming you want it repo friendly

[elder kernel]

Good point about Castrol. I can remove the name and put some Paton Machines branding in its place. Not too worried about corrugations texture but mainly after the rust/missing paint patina

[elder kernel]

Haha! Fortune teller!

[bronze shard]

you would probably have to find someone that can work in substance painter to be able to get faithful rust that actually looks good. a clean texture would otherwise be like 5 minutes to do and another 5 to get in game. hell, a colorable variant would probably take another 5 minutes

[hollow gale]

If you can send me photos from every side and the top, i could try and make a skin for the pigeon

[valid nexus]

waiiit

[dense jungle]

👀

Coincidence, i think not

[valid nexus]

anyone wanna make mod with me?

[thick niche]

https://www.beamng.com/threads/s10-body-swap-d-series.101258/
Finally made a thread.

[dense jungle]

good thing you didnt accidentally share the wrong one, although it wopuold probably be dismissed as a mod

[barren magnet]

unless you show prior experience or progress on something, nobody is gonna bite

mods aren’t something you can easily just collaborate on

[valid nexus]

ik i made one

[barren magnet]

what did you make

[plush ruin]

Some people thought that one was the new car somehow 💀

[ocean mauve]

oh my god agenty leaked the new car

[thick niche]

all ur ideas r belong 2 me

[limpid token]

Yes or no? PUR S REMAKE (orange pic is pre-remake)

YESSS pigeon door closing failure goes sick

[dawn tiger]

Bastion time

[lime ether]

Yes please

[flint egret]

I know there's people who think this is very simple, and could code this in their sleep, but for someone who doesn't natively know lua, I'm pretty proud of this

[bronze shard]

yeah that mod seems like a trainwreck. etk800 meshslap? overwrites the normal 800 .dae? the material stuff?? that is all just going by the thread, not home to investigate it myself

[vagrant ether]

can u send the link to ur mod i want it

[flint egret]

Its a paid mod

[flint egret]

Dm me if you are still interested lol

[glacial summit]

how do i add a license plate?

[dawn tiger]

hell yea that's awesome

[outer solstice]

very cool but please make it not an alarm clock lol

[fiery adder]

That makes me wonder where the hell does the alarm clock sound. Come from?

I need a 1+ video essay on this

[thick niche]

got the chrome optioned all together, then started working on the trim, fixed a few topology issues (a few more i need to fix), and added rear bumper topper.

[dawn tiger]

looks sweet man

[brazen cypress]

Y so small

[dawn tiger]

[brazen cypress]

Yea, why 8’s

Why not 2 12”

[dawn tiger]

i have 12s

[brazen cypress]

Thoes look like 10”

Or the bastion trunk is masive

[dawn tiger]

well in blender i made the subs exactly 12 inches so massive trunk

[brazen cypress]

This is the 12” i have in a bmw, they definitely look different

I also have either a 15” or 18” in a tahoe

[brazen cypress]

How hard is it would you say to do that to the bastion

I want to do stuff to the d-series

[dawn tiger]

14s for the upfiring ones

and not hard pretty easy imo

[brazen cypress]

I really want to do it but every yt tutorial is so complicated

Like i think they purposely make it hard to understand

I also have adhd so that may not help

[dawn tiger]

yea i learned nothing from youtube just started doing it lol and i swear if your not a genius beam ng nodding is difficult

[brazen cypress]

Leme see the nodes on the bastion if your in game

[dawn tiger]

[brazen cypress]

Nice

[dawn tiger]

[brazen cypress]

I have ideas but don’t know how to do them lol

I usually just do stuff in blender and thats it

[dawn tiger]

[brazen cypress]

I paid 10$ for someone to import this into beam and then my pc broke so i lost it

[brazen cypress]

[dawn tiger]

[brazen cypress]

[shut dagger]

Looks dope
But don't forget to autosmooth at least

[fossil mason]

[brazen cypress]

Subwoofer

[brazen cypress]

What

[chrome fable]

right click > shading > autosmooth

you have to select an object first of course

[cold pewter]

bakes

headlight still needs some adjustment but I’m pretty happy w how it all turned out tbh

[quick pagoda]

time to make a proper houston slab

whenever it comes out

[languid stump]

can you link it

[lime ether]

Im asking for it?

[untold nacelle]

[lime ether]

If someone had a mod like that

This guy is mass pining people

[flint egret]

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/nBr4D4Fq154?app=desktop

lol

[outer solstice]

lmao

honda engineers literally woke up with that idea

[flint egret]

its the best idea

I love the sound lol

I still need to mess with the sound, and make it sound good and natural, but its there

[drowsy leaf]

NO

god hoods are pretty hard to model

[thick niche]

are you good with interior materials? I could use some help on the s10

[thick niche]

thankfully most webbing is modeled on the s10 so no need to uv it 😄

[drowsy leaf]

im not UVing it, im modeling it

[thick niche]

would you rather model it vs uv it?

[drowsy leaf]

im doing both

i need to make a highpoly so i can then uv it into a lowpoly for the texture

[thick niche]

so your just modeling it to bake it into a uv to use on the low poly?

[drowsy leaf]

yes

[thick niche]

i assume that just saves on poly count.
i'd love to learn how to do that eventually

thankfully the s10 is only at 250k w/ all the inner webbing modeled.

[cold pewter]

I’m much better with lights than anything when I texture sadly, so I’m not sure if I could be of much help

[hoary shell]

i wish some one did a lore friendly saab

[shell crater]

How can I add those chime sounds to Beam to add immersion?

[hoary shell]

were really missing some swedih cars here

[thick niche]

you can always make one

[hoary shell]

i dont have any modding experience or i dont know how to work with Jbeam

[thick niche]

now is a good time to start learning

[hoary shell]

can you just use a model from blender and add Jbeam

[shell crater]

From different manufacturers depending on the car of course (Ford/Chevy for Gavril, Dodge/Chrysler for Bruckell, Honda/Nissan/Toyota for Ibishu, Subaru for Hirochi etc)

Cherrier could prohably be Peugeot or Renault... Autobello I'm not sure about since they're older and probably didn't have chimes back in the time they were made, unless the devs or a modder makes a modern Autobello like the Fiat 500 Abarth or something, then I'd add Fiat chimes to them. For Civetta I'd go with Ferrari chimes

[tight flare]

Hey guys im looking for some great maps to play on like to do some drifting and some city stuff

[thick niche]

https://www.beamng.com/resources/valo-city.26648/

https://www.beamng.com/threads/high-force-uk.89611/

I recommend these 2, great ai support.

Valo city easier on fps
uk high force very beautiful

[shell crater]

Speaking of maps... Are there any race track maps that would fit in with the BeamNG ones? Or normal open world maps but with a race track somewhere?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jiSRsAbSo3Q

[dawn tiger]

any one know how to fix this on a mirror modifier

[dull grove]

its not so much the count that matters, it's how the geometry interacts with the jbeam (extra shit modeled under hood = clipping and spiking when deformed)

you can work around it ofc by modifying the jbeam but is usually more convenient to just bake the details

[sullen orchid]

Hello, can someone repair DSC SkateBOAT because the buttons to activate turbo mode do not work.
I really liked this mod, someone will fix it.

[woeful marsh]

https://www.beamng.com/threads/edgestone-expressway-ridge-racer.101256/
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=wVcW1TYVMe8

[thick niche]

i need to learn how to do that

[dull grove]

for stuff like that it's really ez, only takes 5-10 mins max (really ez to mess up on your first time tho)

lights and glowing stuff usually takes longer because you gotta test shit until you like how it looks, while waiting for your computer to rebake it each time

[thick niche]

ima have to learn it eventually. probably sooner rather than later

[tight flare]

Thx gonna try now

how would yall approach this jbeam? a quick sketch would be helpful

[fathom hinge]

Is beammp not working for anyone else?

[tacit wyvern]

any recmedations for modern police cars?

[outer solstice]

bastion

[dense jungle]

(unless this is a universal and not specific to that car) general advice, unless you made it from scratch, its not advised to make real car mods paid

unless you didnt make that part, then you likely got scammed but the sound is cool though dont get me wrong

[cold pewter]

lights

[flint egret]

The car is my mod. Also the door chime

[dense jungle]

was the model made by you or sourced elsewhere

[flint egret]

It's a composition of many models, heavily edited into one seamless model

[warped steppe]

anyone know any good mini maps for BeamNG?

[shut stratus]

I downloaded 2 mods, and theyre different years of the same vehicle but have the same file name. How can I fix this, (One wont spawn)

[alpine coral]

Does anyone know how i can make railcar mods?

I want to make a hopper railcar.

[jade pagoda]

any good duramax mods

[vague girder]

Those glow maps are sexy af

[cloud pivot]

is there a way to change the white on the trees?

[wheat minnow]

thats a nice map

i cant even mod 😭

[cloud pivot]

i barely can, follow terry martin art on youtube and itll get you started

[abstract moth]

Etk 800

[abstract root]

what white?

[manic flume]

yo anybody got tips on good mods?

[cloud pivot]

the white on the trees in the distance, theres no lod texture so im lookin for asnother way

[cerulean oxide]

Is there any mods that is similar to this one :p

[cerulean oxide]

Or can someone make a mod based on one of these

[neat meadow]

Your best bet is probably making it yourself. Either in automation or otherwise. People don't ever take requests for mods

[cerulean oxide]

Some people can or will :p. I don’t have automation plus haven’t learnt how to mod. It’s worth asking.

[neat meadow]

Haven't seen anyone who does at least here or the forum's but by all means

[thick niche]

i can tell you no one does requests

[drowsy leaf]

how much is your budget

[cerulean oxide]

Idk how much do I owe you

[drowsy leaf]

you owe me nothing, i have had no business with you

[cerulean oxide]

What budget are you talking about

[drowsy leaf]

whats your budget for those mods

if you want someone to make those mods, you only option is paying up

nobody does entire vehicle mods for free

[cerulean oxide]

I just want a detailed interior, detailed engine and working hinges. Like lost vehicles. I’m fine with paying

[drowsy leaf]

yes but whats your budget

[cerulean oxide]

Hmmmm

10 bucks maybe

[drowsy leaf]

you cant be serious right

[cerulean oxide]

Don’t really know what price is worth it

[drowsy leaf]

lets start at 14000$

[cerulean oxide]

What

[drowsy leaf]

yea im totally serioust

[cerulean oxide]

It’s not a real car

[drowsy leaf]

mhm

but its real time spent making it

[cerulean oxide]

Ok I’m out then

[drowsy leaf]

this is a value estimated by combining the average of time that takes to make a full car mod, combined with the salary of a 3d modeler, texture artist and game programmer

this is just mostly used to showcase that no one will do these sort of things for free

[cerulean oxide]

I have no experience with modding so I didn’t know really. I thought people did it. Sorry for wasting your time ur time.

[drowsy leaf]

no worries, you arent wasting my time

[thick niche]

Your young, its good time to start learning

[cerulean oxide]

You know how old I am?

[thick niche]

based on name, expectance of payment, and how you type i can guesstimate.

[cerulean oxide]

Guess

[thick niche]

no thanks

[pseudo beacon]

Does anyone have a mod that adds better brakes to the Carbonworks F4?

[thick niche]

The brakes are fine on it, but no there isnt

[sleek breach]

I was making decal roads in the world editor and pressed something on accident that made them all disapear and look like this anyone know what I did or how to revert it back and I closed it so I cant control Z

[dawn tiger]

it looks like its rotated on the y axis

[dawn tiger]

X not y

[sleek breach]

Since when can you rotate decals

[livid steppe]

Since decalroads are fixed on the terrain, try setting the width of the decalroad nodes

If not that, I would try changing the material to something else, then back to what you had it as. For some reason, and dont ask why, that fixes any broken decalroad.

I've struggled with the world editor alone for so long that I have came to multiple conclusions: 1. It's gonna take over 5k hours to complete my dream map,
2. Its broken at best, broken at worst, and sometimes freezes all the time for no reason some times. XD

[dawn tiger]

well it looks rotated

[upper steeple]

nice a112 looks cool

from what I know no mods replicate one

You could learn and do it urself maybe in a year ull have some kind of working mod

[sweet pumice]

Does anyone have suggestions for mods to improve the AI traffic? I wanna make some fun police chases, but with the current traffic its too easy.

[nimble ember]

question: anybody know anything about the bruckell bulwark? I was lookin for it and the last update to it was 2 years ago, was it cancelled?

[cyan drum]

yes

[nimble ember]

ah

thats dissapointing, oh well

[cloud pivot]

close that back wall for amps and swap that DB killing carpet for some painted plywood for the LOUDZ, dont really need those ports either. just my 2 cents if youre going for realism

sick though

[dawn tiger]

I planned on closing it off for an amp rack just have got there yet and yea I probably don't need em

[cloud pivot]

i used to build my own and compete a little but i never built a bandpass like that, juust a center slot port b pillar wall with 4 15s on 5k rms, it was intense lol

[dawn tiger]

I have the covet walled off with a center slot and 4 15s lol and man I love subs I have 2 10 inch Orion hccas in my living room

[cloud pivot]

i do to but i ruined my hearing from years of long exposure lol have a constant hum now

[dawn tiger]

I have tenitis not from subs but yea I don't over do it any more I saw what it could do and backed off lol

[cloud pivot]

yup oh well lol

[wind raptor]

was there a mod that had a v10 engine for the gavril d series on the repo?

[cerulean oxide]

Yeah ik my dad used to drive it when he was younger

[shell crater]

Is there a way to make the enhanced chase camera mod (by Raczkie) not dip down when I start driving?

First picture is 0 mph, second is what happens when I start driving (The camera dips down a bit to the point I can't see the road ahead at low camera positions (I want a low camera position to mimic most rcing game chase cams))

[upper steeple]

I've ported a car I modelled in beamng and I think it looks absolutely beautiful

what do u guys think?

maybe its too tiny

[thick niche]

what chassis is this on?

[upper steeple]

Autobello Piccolina

the tutorial car

its too small

it's shorter than a covet

and almost half the height

[fading gust]

really hope it comes back to life some day 🙏

i was so hyped for it

[golden raven]

Holy smash

That looks amazing

[upper steeple]

Yes but I just realized I made it so small

😭

[golden raven]

Yeah maybe it is a bit small but we need cars like these

Small tiny cute lil race cars

Kinda reminds me of lotus

[upper steeple]

yeah but its too small

I like the concept of it being smaller than usual but it's like a toy car rn

I'm gonna fix it probably since I love the model

[golden raven]

Yeah it would be nice if it would be a bit bigger

Good luck on further progress hope you release it some day

A couple of people have been wanting a mod link for this config i made, am i able to make it a mod if it requires mods from other people or is that plagiarism (maybe label it as mods of mods or configs etc)

[cold pewter]

you can probably put the links to those mods in your download page so people can download those so ur mod works right

[chilly vale]

Yeah thats what i was thinking

Because i dont want 9 modders mad at me for making a meme config with their mods

[cold pewter]

then you could do that and be in the clear tbh

[rough iris]

what do I need to do to get permission to make a new thread in #1102973298222051358 ?

(y'know,single headlights instead of the double ones)

[dusk gust]

oh that looks really nice

you know you can just extend the roof a little bit,which would make it slightly uglier but then it would let you embrace the cute little sports car idea

maybe an f1 car-ish seating position(of course,nothing even remotely close to this but something in between a regular seating position and this)

Try deep cleaning cache, always a good idea after updating mods

[olive holly]

Instructions on how to Clear Cache can be found here: ```
<https://documentation.beamng.com/support/launcher_support_tools/clear_cache/>

disregard this, just remove "temp" folder in the user folder

cleaning cache takes wayy to long

[rose charm]

You can use automation but it’s not up to pare with actual beamng modding

[inner escarp]

But you cant do it beamng

[ocean mauve]

you can import the automation cars into beamng

[inner escarp]

But yoy have to buy automation

[rose charm]

Yes and the automation cars don’t have the same quality but it’s much less work than making a car yourself

[inner escarp]

Damn

[rose charm]

Unless you want to learn how to model and blender and j beam

And all that fun stuff

[inner escarp]

Hell nah

[inner escarp]

Im too dumb for that shi

[rose charm]

Then yeah automations your only option

[rose charm]

modern toyotas dont have toyota engines

[drowsy leaf]

nope, eu corollas, they have iirc PSA group engines

[steep flume]

I know bc smelly bmw put their hands on them

[drowsy leaf]

and since the corolla platform is basically used in all eu toyotas one way or another, it means they have PSA engines

[steep flume]

All toyotas till 2018 are reliable

newer ones look good tho imo

the only good new toyotas are the hybrids

MAP MOD QUESTION: so I used a thing to duplicate west coast essentially and I have a rework level from normal west coast. How do I make it go to the new one. So that like if I share it to my homies all the reworked stuff is there

[dawn tiger]

zip your new level and send it to them? im not sure what all you mean

[brazen nymph]

Map name ??

[mystic crag]

Hello! Is there a way to create a menu mod to replace the normal menu?

[summer kiln]

Is there a mod that gives a universal transmission override to the license plate option?

I want to replace the transmission on some cars that don't have manual/sequential transmissions

[dawn tiger]

https://www.beamng.com/resources/vehicle-global-strength-weight-size-and-other-values-edit-works-for-mods.14868/ i cant remember but i believe this mod lets you override transmission things

[summer kiln]

okay this mod lets you override EVERYTHING

[dawn tiger]

Yea lol

[summer kiln]

sadly it forces me to use the engine swap if I want to override the transmission. I don't want to do that, but the other options are enticing
i'll keep it, but it sadly isn't what I'm looking for

[dawn tiger]

Dang sorry for the bad advide

[summer kiln]

Hey no worries, I'm having a blast with this mod regardless

okay so if I use "customizable engine" with the existing engine selected, it'll use the correct engine :D

so I can override transmission after all
thanks @dawn tiger

[lyric cedar]

Gave +1 Reputation to @dawn tiger (current: #136 - 21)

[dawn tiger]

bet thats awesome

[summer kiln]

the only downside is I have to remove the transmission and the differential from the existing car

[raven spade]

Im saying like make it come on the map file i made

cause i have a full map file ingame, my level just dosen't worl

[summer kiln]

You'll have to remake it with the new west coast

[raven spade]

wait

[raven spade]

so i have to rmake my mod file?

[summer kiln]

if you want the new stuff you'll probably have to go in and add the stuff to the new version of the map

[raven spade]

I dragged and dropped it

but it dosen't show up

[summer kiln]

in your mods folder in the 0.33 userfolder?

[raven spade]

yes

not like in there

but i unzipped my map mod ingame, and drag and dropped my level

from normal west coast

[summer kiln]

wierd, that likely should have worked

[raven spade]

Well its east coast. the reason i said west was cause i plan on doing thart

but same stuff

thats it

but then I drag and dropped my save level

and it didnt work

[summer kiln]

okay yeah that is wierd af

[raven spade]

yeah

And im trying to give my friends the map and now i cnat

[summer kiln]

tbh can't wait for your west coast remaster because i'm bored of the current one

[dawn tiger]

anything you put on the map will be in appdata/beamng/levels/name of map

[raven spade]

Im trying to do it but

[raven spade]

Yea

and i drag and dropped my saved level into my mod

and it still dont work

[dawn tiger]

did you trey clearing the cache

[raven spade]

Wont i lose my levels then

[dawn tiger]

make a back up just drag the levels folder out of your game onto the desktop and if it messes up yoou can just put it back

[summer kiln]

^

[raven spade]

And my mods too right?

[summer kiln]

mods aren't cached

[raven spade]

oh

[dawn tiger]

as long as your mods are in the mods folder then no

[raven spade]

they in there

now i gotta figure out how to clear my cache.

[dawn tiger]

when you open the launcher click support tools then clear cache then deep cache clean

[raven spade]

What abt my repo mods? btw

[summer kiln]

not cached

[dawn tiger]

nope they will stay everything in the mods folder doesnt get touched at all

[raven spade]

alright, cause my buddys said i might

omg, i just forgot to drag my levels out

alr well rip

[dawn tiger]

Another question, So I made a building and the roof was like metal guard rail pieces. and when i would change the texture/color it would change all of that item on map

[dawn tiger]

you have to make a new material for it then

[raven spade]

And it wont change all of the items

[dawn tiger]

Um yeah your right you would have to make a copy of the object in blender and do it there unless someone else knows if you can change the material on just one object that's the same as the others

[terse helm]

Hi does anyone know how to fix the steering jbeam breaking if you steer too much in my mod? To enable my mod please change the bus axle to "Front Axle Guided". Any help would be appreciated!

[blazing dock]

just a quick question: how exactly do i log stuff into the console?
https://documentation.beamng.com/modding/programming/debugging/ log() does not work and the error tells me it is undefined, so I assume this docs are assuming some general knowledge thatlog() has to become something beamng.log() or so and I just do not know that

[latent grove]

Guys, what do you know about some of the strongest cars/trucks in beamng? (in like transporting, pushing, etc.)

[dusty lark]

@rich pelican

[rich pelican]

I have been having for sound trouble on a mod I guess I am not putting it in right

[last wharf]

Hmmm, which mod?

And what do you mean by sound trouble?

[rich pelican]

So I had one of half lit performances mods and can’t hear the engine sounds

[last wharf]

Alright, in settings make sure your preformance volume is high just to see if it's working but you just can't hear it.

[rich pelican]

Alright give me a sec

[rich pelican]

Is that just in normal audio settings

[last wharf]

I believe so.

[rich pelican]

Did not work what do it do with the art folder I can get the car in the game but no sounds for that car just the turbo and tires and etc

[last wharf]

Hm, I don't know maybe try a different sound pack.

[rich pelican]

It’s just the one that came with the download
Yeah idk

[raven spade]

Yo so i did this and got it working an all but textures on stuff isnt loading.

[dawn tiger]

look in material editor and see where the materials are pointing

[raven spade]

this?

[dawn tiger]

so what youll have to do is load the other map find the materials and move them to youre map folder and apply them to that mesh

[raven spade]

My map folder?

what map folder like base game

[dawn tiger]

whatever map your working on did you make a copy or are you just working on the base game map

[raven spade]

made a copy

didnt wanna do that to my base game lol

[dawn tiger]

then you would put them in the maps copy like make a folder inside of art that is for your tectures then put all your textures there and then in beam map them to the model

[raven spade]

Okay, So I need to go in the old map, go to the object, Find the name of the material, Find it in files, Copy it into my new map?

copy it into my new map that

[dawn tiger]

your welcome

[gilded fog]

is there a way to change the ingame backgrounds on the main menu to ingame pictures i took myself. im assuming i just replace png files in the game files but does anyone know how to get there or where it's at

[ocean mauve]

The main menu background images are stored in
...\steamapps\common\BeamNG.drive\ui\modules\mainmenu\drive\images

The loading screen images are strored in
...\steamapps\common\BeamNG.drive\ui\modules\loading\drive

You can replace them, but you'd have to keep the names and filetypes the same

[gilded fog]

thanks man!!

[latent grove]

Guys, what do you know about some of the strongest cars/trucks in beamng? (in like transporting, pushing, etc.)

[whole bay]

does anyone have a mod to increase the dealership capacity in career mode?

[pallid tundra]

does anyone know many mods with german cars in it? i cant find anything.

[drowsy leaf]

nah, since the current carrer mode is in alpha and is changing so much with each update, it would be stupid to make mods for it

[thick niche]

wish they woulda just went the slrr style. ( the slrr career mod is decent, but i wish he would port it to valo city)

[pallid tundra]

does someone?

[thick niche]

look at the forums, that's where cars are released.

[pallid tundra]

here? all of them are safe?

[thick niche]

yes

[pallid tundra]

so it need to be confirmed that is it not virus before anyonecan upload there?

[thick niche]

forums = safe

everywhere else = 50/50 safe. but wouldn't recommend

[pallid tundra]

thanks. sorry for being woried

[neat meadow]

As long as you get your mods from the forum's you are guaranteed they are safe

[pallid tundra]

tysm

[neat meadow]

Np man

Repo is the same story

[pallid tundra]

what is the diff?

[neat meadow]

Repo is the in-game one that you can get from inside the game. Forum's you access from that website. Usually has mods that don't make it to the repo such as real life cars and such

That's how I see it anyways

Just for forum's you need to drag and drop those mods into your beams mod folder but if you used the repo it's in the same spot

[pallid tundra]

thanks

[neat meadow]

Np

[pallid tundra]

Can everyone just upload mods there? or does it need to get rewied before public?

[neat meadow]

Repo is reviewed and usually takes a day or so to get uploaded. Forum's you can make a post, show the progress you have and post. Just make sure that it's under the right category

Though the post should follow forum rules too. Not a lawless wasteland there

[raven spade]

Do you know how to get it to save?

the materials

[drowsy frost]

#support message @heady nexus Use this channel instead for starters.

Secondly, you cannot get skins to be reflective like what you're wanting, Beam's skin materials simply do not support that, and having them glow would just look ridiculous and stupid.

You need to use the emissivemap materials section (open world editor and the material editor, scroll till you find that) and your image to be reflective must be black and white, with white being what glows. The BX has its own glow skin so you can take a look at that. :)

[heady nexus]

This channel was not visible to me until now... huh. Anyway thank you so much.

Love your stuff by the way! Really good work man.

[drowsy frost]

Thank you. :)

[dawn tiger]

Hey sorry just woke up you may need to make a new material it may be trying to load the old material from the other map everytime

[raven spade]

So i need to make a material??

It did it again but when i load it it works.

[dawn tiger]

Probably that's all I can think of since it's not saving? It's probably trying to load it from the old map and what do you mean when you load

[raven spade]

I have to click each one of thoes material tabs and load the base color map and the Normal map color

[dawn tiger]

Hmm okay I'm currently about to shower give me 20 mins also send me a DM and I'll help you there

[raven spade]

Alright

[quick pivot]

epic fail incoming

[scenic field]

Since i was directed here ig ill ask here

Is there any free car mods that can be turned into basicaly any race car?

Like uhh example is the bx series. It can be rally, rallycross, time attack, derby and alldat, cars like that

[dawn tiger]

I think the hirochi ccf and Gabriel na2 which are both amazing cars

[scenic field]

Got em

Built em

[quick pivot]

Mainly hirochi ccf, it inspired me to start modding

[scenic field]

First pic i found no pics of ccf tho

[quick pivot]

https://discord.com/channels/710082165253079061/1108282796809650197

it has a working display.

touchscreen.

[scenic field]

I mainly built trackday ccfs but allso drift somehow

[dawn tiger]

Hm then I'm not sure if just suggest scrolling forever and looking at mods forever

[scenic field]

Thats why il asking

Ig unlucky today

[quick pivot]

try cherrier picnic

or ibushu

[thick niche]

any car can be built anyway

just need to learn to tune

[scenic field]

I wanna build stuff like this
But cant since most of the cars dont support the stuff i wanna do with em

[scenic field]

Not the way i want. Not all cars have bar front windows, not in all can the fuel tank be moved into the trunk or backseat

[dawn tiger]

Make mods for them that's the fun of modding you make what you want

[scenic field]

How or where do i mod?

[quick pivot]

this is how

and some 3D moddeling

[scenic field]

I know 3d but where

Gonna fuken mod a civetta into a derby car

[late cargo]

YouTube is a great resource - fillman86 makes a lot of vids where he shows what he does, otherwise there are decent guides on the official site

However, like any thing that has to be learned, it'll be hard and take a long time, unless you are an easy learner or find this type of thing fun

Free software you need: Blender (3D, can be found on steam or their own site), VSCode (Coding, can be found in the windows store (on windows) or their own site)

[scenic field]

Gonna buy solidworks for 1 projekt

Xd

[thick niche]

why solidworks not many use it here

[dawn tiger]

blender lol def dont buy anything

[scenic field]

Im gonna get solidworks anyways

So why not

[thick niche]

1. asks how to mod
2. doesn't listen to advice
3. picks more complicated software where no one can help him
4. seems legit

[dawn tiger]

id still use blender because thats what everyone uses and thers a million tutorials online for it and a discord group for blender that is suler helpful

[scenic field]

Complicated? I got solidworks learned modding maybe ill try blender if thats what the vids use

[scenic field]

Allrigth i will check tmr. Im not home currently
