lol I can’t wait. Always wanted a realistic traffic pack like this for beamng!

[craggy portal]

Alright mr obvious

[gaunt kelp]

anyone here use modland

the people there are strange

[dark dove]

Don’t

99% illegal leaks, or viruses/p.rn/g.re

[gaunt kelp]

wtf

[dark dove]

yea

Don’t touch third party mod websites

[gaunt kelp]

??????? i have yet to come across the last one

[dark dove]

Yea they’re out there

[gaunt kelp]

so just the official beamng site only?

[dark dove]

Yea. Unless you know 100% that the mod is legit

This is a good link https://www.beamng.com/threads/the-irl-cars-mod-list-for-v0-37-22-11-2025-update.102506/

[vague wigeon]

What are some good mods

[dark dove]

Link above

Personally the no.1 general game mod that overall improves the experience is CKs Skybox, its on the ingame repository

[mental glen]

hello, can anyone help me out?
im trying to get the older lincoln continental mod to use the 460 engine sounds from the "Ford Engines" pack on repo, as it doesnt really sound good. any tips or tricks that could maybe help me?

ladies and gentleman

the lincoln no longer makes any sound

[dawn tiger]

Open the engine jbeams for both mods. Copy the soundconfig exhaust and sound config from the 460 to the lincoln engine.

[mental glen]

ok, i got the sound back, just not the sound i want. when i go into the audio files for the lincoln its just videos

like short videos for the audio and the issue is for the rev audio he put a rev audio, but something is wrong

they are just mp3 files

i dont really care what audio it is as long as it doesnt do what it is doing currently

[dawn tiger]

The sounds for an engine should never be .mp3 files? The sound config and sound config echaust are the only things that shout need to change to have the sounds from one to the oter.

[mental glen]

https://medal.tv/games/beamng/clips/mlLmV7d2I0D2ogDwo?invite=cr-MSx0U1csMjE4MDkwNDE4

thats a clip of me driving with the sound and ill take a photo of the mp3 files

nevermind, but you get the idea

its just all mp3 files

[near vine]

Seems like the variables don't read in double quotations?

[drowsy leaf]

wymn?

[near vine]

for example, here's what I've tried : "$='steering_rim_'..'$steeringDist'"

it outputs steeringrimvarsteeringDist

instead of the $steeringDist number

[drowsy leaf]

oh i see the issue

"$='steeringrim'..'$steeringDist'"

your approach is not accessing a variable, it is concetenating "steeringrim" and "$steeringDist"

"$='steeringrim' .. $steeringDist"

this should work

[near vine]

oh

shIt I didn't found the second quotations

i'm stupid. thanks

It works now with both variables and components.

[drowsy leaf]

i highly reccomend putting more spaces in your expressions, makes them easier to read

"$='sunburst2_lcst_hood_'..($components.hood.type or 'a')..($components.hood.shape or '')..($components.hood.carbon or '')"

vs

"$= 'sunburst2_lcst_hood_' .. ( $components.hood.type or 'a' ) .. ( $components.hood.shape or '' ) .. ( $components.hood.carbon or '' ) "

[near vine]

yes, I didn't copied the exactly the same thing

[drowsy leaf]

what are you doing may i ask

[near vine]

Steering column, fully adjustable angle and wheel spacers

[drowsy leaf]

nice

[near vine]

I've found that, baseRotation is a mandatory header in the props section, so in Blender the rotation is not read by Jbeam I believe. That means either I have to use a refNode that's exactly in the same angle of my steering shaft, or I have to find the Y and Z relationship in order to move the steering wheel

That would be too much hassle, I just created 3 wheels at different distances with suffix in the mesh name. Combined with a variable in that way the game reads whatever spacing steering wheel mesh while maintaining the rotation angles (Since I can move then easily in blender)

But the angle is simple, origin at the end of steering column and baseRotation is enough

[near vine]

May I ask you how do you type that code bar thing in Discord? I didn't paste my Jbeam with spaces because somehow it made my format in discord weird. I don't use Discord that much so I'm not very good at it

[white minnow]

someone should make a mod for the indian tire launcher

[drowsy leaf]

you place these 3 of that -> `

not single quotes (') i think they are called tilde (`)

but not this tilde (´)

[near vine]

You mean like this?

well that's markdown

So discord accepts markdown

[plush mural]

Lichi I Think we should make a Porsche 911 997

[drowsy leaf]

discord does in fact have markdown

it is cool

-# or is it

you can also do inline code by using a single backtick

[vestal pilot]

[low osprey]

hello everyone I'm wondering if there is a mod for a ui app that is like a real gauge cluster with actual analog gauges or something similar

[marble maple]

any good chevrolet mods? just chevrolet vehicles in general

[cold orbit]

guys, anyone know equivalent for * in npp++?
In programs like total commander and many more * means anything in between of something. (example in pictures)
but it doesnt work that was in npp++ (it show it as not found, like its searching for specific charater * in text)

[bright jacinth]

@opal fiber You remind me of my favorite music artist Freddy DJ
https://www.youtube.com/@Freddy5275

You are with upmost certainty one of the modders of all time though :)

That's why I randomly remembered you

[opal fiber]

thank you for the backhanded compliment

[lyric cedar]

Gave +1 Reputation to @bright jacinth (current: #429 - 12)

[bright jacinth]

That was NOT backhanded sir

I'm geniune lols

[opal fiber]

you called me one of the modders of all time

saying something like
you are one of the "things" of all time means said thing wasn't very good lmao

[bright jacinth]

Your contributions alone make you a legend

[bright jacinth]

Ah I get it now

That was indeed condescending now that I look at it this way

[opal fiber]

in that case thank you lmao
you could have worded better tho

[opal fiber]

:P

[bright jacinth]

No problem, Didn't think it would come across that way in particular but it did, You live and you learn

[worthy moss]

why me262 is removed from the repository?

[zenith furnace]

modland is shit

[sage cypress]

is there a mod like an aerodynamics/blowover mod where if you meet the certain real life criteria in for example an f1 you will go flying up like a real f1 would???

[echo storm]

Is there a updated whsd mod?

[oblique crater]

Maybe

[jovial terrace]

I want to find a mod with an aero package big wing muscle car, like the Superbird or Dodge Daytona. Thing is I want it to be lore friendly. Anyone know of anything like that, best I can find is an old mod for a Barstow successor model

[thorny garnet]

Why my mod isn't accessible but only searchable [Steer Beamng] on forums?https://www.beamng.com/search/921683127/?q=steer+beamng&o=date&c[title_only]=1

[rough iris]

When I click the link I see it show up but clicking on the mod itself shows an error page. Did it maybe never get approved or taken down so only you can see the page?

[spiral oar]

it needs couple of days usually to get approved (sometimes more), at least for repository.

[thorny garnet]

not good

[thorny garnet]

it been months

[hoary nebula]

[mental pier]

i had no blender experience, i opened it, fiddled with something which made my cube tilt and closed it

it sits in my steam library ever since

[stuck void]

ive imported to roblox, but thats not beam

Since I got ideas, and i might sketch them

[left fractal]

idk if there are any linux users out there but i have this weird issue on native linux binary where engine sounds from mods don't work. it's probably somehow connected to windows-only FMOD banks or sound formats used in mods.

interestingly, when i run the game through proton, everything works perfectly and mod engine sounds play normally.

vanilla cars have sound on native, only modded ones are affected.

has anyone else experienced this or knows a fix/workaround (other than just using proton)?

[toxic brook]

Is kofi safe to download mods from

[thin widget]

No it blows up ur PC

And kills ur dog

[spiral oar]

luckly i have a cat

[muted tapir]

is there any good mod for like cams? like it would be cool to throw a cam in a truck or car in the game and give it power and a chop and stuff also any like exhaust mods where you can change more of the exhaust do like long tube headers or true duals different mufflers stuff like that didnt know if there were any mods like that but if so that would be cool

[supple cosmos]

Yo i have a question, can i put the ETK V8 (like swap the engine) and put it on other car (like in the old ETK Car)

[dark dove]

Yea

[rough iris]

It's not that hard to learn how to rescale and shape pre existing car parts. Making something from scratch however is much harder and requires a lot of learning and many tutorials

[regal trout]

does anyone know how to make propellers? I have been struggling on them for the past 2 days.
right now the beams just explode when I try to mount the prop to the car.

[fallow notch]

[outer hornet]

is there a jzx100 mod?

[hoary nebula]

is there any good drift car?

[cosmic needle]

Any good f1 mods

[dense jungle]

there's #1474872119144743082 but it doesnt fall under good as the general consensus and this https://discord.com/channels/710082165253079061/1455875007828721664 but its not released

[hoary nebula]

is there any free drift car?

any brand of car is fine

[drowsy leaf]

theres a bunch of them on the vanilla cars

the bx and sunburst also have pro drift specs

[hoary nebula]

already in game or mods car?

[drowsy leaf]

already in game

[hoary nebula]

[frigid palm]

Last question of the day. What causes this weird offset tire issue?

[dry quarry]

Tire flexbody offset

[frigid palm]

So it’s the wheel or tire mod makers problem?

[high niche]

Hello people, I wanted to fit an Audi wheels on my golf in beamng, so i downloaded a mod that has those wheels, but unfortunately when i try to fit them to da golf, i cannot find them, why? Is there anything i could do?

i cannot put photos here so i hope nobody will mind an imgur link https://imgur.com/a/4rbJadJ

[coarse shell]

anyone know where I can buy a high quality rework of west coast usa

[drowsy leaf]

What is wrong with regular wcusa?

[coarse shell]

well i want a workshop to work on cars

[drowsy leaf]

Its the map that has been updated the most

[drowsy leaf]

There's the Carrer mode garage?

[coarse shell]

idk what to say, not cool enough i guess?

lol

[dark dove]

Custom Horizons had one, but idk if they still update it. Spanky has a really good free one, these pictures are all on it

[drowsy leaf]

I don't think many people even touch wcusa

[dark dove]

Has custom houses/sheds/garages, as well as skid spots n stuff

[drowsy leaf]

Since wcusa is changed each like 2 updates you are just putting an expiration date on your mod

[coarse shell]

oh wow ill check them out, where did you get that lexus mod?

[coarse shell]

i get they add to it cause of career mod but that map is already got too much

ive got a pretty good computer and even if it struggles a bit on ultra with traffic

[drowsy leaf]

There's nothing more to add I think

[dark dove]

Its JSDs IS300, its paid but you get a fair bit of stuff with it, including a Stance wheelpack with like 20 different wheels and insane customization. The IS is the most customizable mod I’ve ever tried, it is truly bonkers lol, so many parts for every bit of the car lol

[drowsy leaf]

Where would you put anything lol

[dark dove]

Ill get u link to JSDs and Spankys server

[coarse shell]

thank you

[lyric cedar]

Gave +1 Reputation to @dark dove (current: #263 - 21)

[coarse shell]

i am trying to get into paid mods more cause the free ones i download are always trash

[coarse shell]

didnt they add a whole new island a bit ago

[dark dove]

If you keep off modland/worldofmods, you’re generally pretty good. But careful, paid mods can be as bad

[drowsy leaf]

Unless they add like a real mountain road in the forest area there is no more space anywhere in the map

[coarse shell]

lol but i as a player cant criticize devs for lack of optimization because I dont understand it and its probably way more difficult then i think

[drowsy leaf]

The island was already there it just had nothing

[drowsy leaf]

It is

At this point beamng it's own custom game engine which is required for all the stuff they've done, which means they can't easily just make new thing work

[coarse shell]

so these pictures of the garage are custom horizons map right?

just making sure before i spend the $12

[dark dove]

No

Spankys, free. I haven’t got Custom Horizons

I sent a link to Spankys server in dms

[coarse shell]

oh wow okay

[dark dove]

Just drag and drop spankys file into mods folder like any mod, and then spawn normal WCUSA and drive around and you’ll find the spots

[coarse shell]

his said something else tho

dm

never mind i cant read just ignore me bro

[silent crescent]

Is there a mod on the repository that adds a high hp 2jz and a livery like dis

I cant add a photo

[dark dove]

#roles

[astral oracle]

[silent crescent]

[drowsy leaf]

Ceep has the best engine tuning

[urban wasp]

Does anyone know how to input game engine extension functions from stream deck into Beamng? Is there a guide on how to do that?

[distant flare]

how would i go about making a skin that has rust holes like the one in the oldsfullsize mod? do i just add an opacity map to the second active layer? or both?

[sick ermine]

[hoary nebula]

is there any good free bmw car?

[small hill]

at this movement your are still look for a free car 😭

[drowsy leaf]

yes he wouldnt be asking otherwise

do you have any?

[small hill]

no

[drowsy leaf]

then what are you replying for

[hoary nebula]

i cant spend money-

[dense jungle]

“Good” might vary, but there’s a list of real cars including bmws in the pinned messages

[spiral oar]

good - free - real life brand.

You usually never get all 3 of those at once

[hoary nebula]

8i mean the best that the free one-

[tight shard]

no virus, good, free, real life are 4 things you'll never get all at the same time

[novel cedar]

does any body know a trailer park map?

[hoary nebula]

i only want a bmw car idc if it bad -

[full tendon]

Anyone know of a mod that makes traffic not eat up frames? Also realizing I had AMDs slop ahh frame gen on lmao

[spiral oar]

https://www.beamng.com/threads/agents-simplified-realistic-traffic-mod-eu-jp-released.102034/
Or simpleNG.

But it will still eat frames,

[full tendon]

as long as it's not eating much (cause I hate that I have to play on normal for 60fps...)

[zinc oak]

is this type of suspension possible in beamng?

[queen nymph]

isn't that just double wishbone with an extra coilover?

[zinc oak]

its double wishbone yes and the rears has two coilovers but ive never seen that setup on any beamng car

[latent prism]

all suspension are like this

[latent prism]

i guess both coilovers are set differently

to have a sort of sequential dampening

[zinc oak]

so i can have two coilovers on each rear

[latent prism]

scintilla axle lift adaptive has 3

per corner

it is an immense pain in the aaaah to tune

you have to calculate the motion ratio of both 3 dampers, that are different and then find out correct values for high/med/slow speed damping within slow and fast damping of each

[zinc oak]

how can i see tht for myself

[latent prism]

ctrl b

ctrl n

and then you use the jbeam to find the nodes and spots the dampers

[zinc oak]

do u mean options to choose or physically cause yes i see race , corsa and adaptive but i meant like side by side like in the photo

[latent prism]

oh no its invisible

[zinc oak]

oh interesting...

[lapis orchid]

am i allowed to suggest something

[drowsy leaf]

yes but you might aswell shout into the void

[lapis orchid]

make a fishing boat!!!!

beamng drive needs more boats

and fishing boats makes the sea more active

[drowsy leaf]

nah thanks

[lapis orchid]

well i tried

dreams crushed in a matter of seconds

[dark dove]

Look here https://www.beamng.com/threads/the-irl-cars-mod-list-for-v0-37-22-11-2025-update.102506/

[pulsar ice]

is there a s10 type mod based on the d serise

[full tendon]

Aight so I'm gonna need a performance mod or something because man.... 💔 the struggles of being (apparently) CPU bottlenecked. only getting 60fps with FRAME GEN. I just don't know.

[pulsar ice]

you should see my specs

intel i3 8 gb ram no gpu 4 gb vram

[full tendon]

Brother the sad part is, I damn need have to not have anything running to not need frame gen, and I'd run normal if it didn't look garbage

[pulsar ice]

just tatoe your graphics

[full tendon]

did bro not read the last part

[pulsar ice]

you get used to it

[full tendon]

Why do I feel like reshade would go hard

[full tendon]

I think it was the reflections and stuff that nuked frames lmao

[dark dove]

Dunno what frame gen is tbh, but what PC are you running on?

[full tendon]

It's basically fake frames afaik...

R5 5500
6650 xt

And turns out it was the dynamic reflections and special mirror thing... Becuse I can run 60 on ultra without frame gen on lmao (occasional dips to 40)

[dark dove]

Yea idk, sounds about right. I’ve got an i7 9700, 3060 12gb, 32gb ram, and I’m on ultra with reshade at 60-80fps stable

60 is perfectly runnable, I used to live at 20-30fps for the last two years, shit was hell to mod with

[full tendon]

Tbf I have reshade's installer and I would love to run ya preset if ya have the ini

[dark dove]

Ah yeah I might be able to get it

Looks like this

Haven’t setup the blur setting yet tho just using vanilla atm

[full tendon]

I'd show images if I could but man I hate how ass the trees look lmao and I think I might need to throw VSync on

[pulsar ice]

is there a mod with suicide front axle for bruckle 9

[dark dove]

Haven’t you asked that already

[pulsar ice]

i meant to ask another server whoops

sorry

[tawny frigate]

hi i downloaded i trailer mod from official repository in game and when spawn or respawn the wheels brake

i cant send screen shot bc I'm not allowed to

this why most beamng mods sucks

[rough iris]

You can try putting on different wheels in the parts selector, or changing the wheel offset in the tuning menu if the mod has that. If both doesn't help then it's just outdated and you can't really do much

[tawny frigate]

itys always the good mods thats buged and outtdated never get updated or fdixed

[rough iris]

Yea I can relate, but sometimes the bigger mods are more work to keep updated so it kind of makes sense

[tawny frigate]

there's another one i tried to use but it does the same thing and replacing wheels also doesn't work why cant this trailer just then bee an official thing in game no mod for it then this why i hate mods in other games only game mods work fine most of the time is minecraft

this game is made to be modded blah blah blah no it isnt if it was there wouldnt of been so many problems

i wish i could make my own game like beamng

it would be better

and people will be forced to make free mods no alowed to sell them

since the game already paid

i uninstalled this game its crap

goodbye im also leaving this server il might be back other time when its better game

[spiral oar]

no way bro had that much crash out over wheels not working on a mod 😯

[high cape]

hi is there a forum somewhere on the site where i can write a map suggestion

one that is frequented by people so maybe the idea gets picked up by someone

[drowsy leaf]

Holy crash out

[spiral oar]

usually, people are too busy with working on their own mods, so they don't really look at suggestions from others

[drowsy leaf]

You are free to yell into the void, modders have their own ideas piled up

I've never seen modders take full mod suggestions

The few times I've asked for suggestions for tuning parts for my mod it's not resulted well, and that was a very specific thing that I asked for

[high cape]

alright

damn

[dark dove]

This is actually hilarious lmao

That must be ragebait surely

There is no way someone should be on discord if they act like that 😭

[olive spire]

11 no higher

[dark dove]

11s a compliment 😭

[olive spire]

And this 😭

[dense jungle]

This is straight up wrong. What a crashout

[zealous quail]

someone should make a North Carolina license plate mod 👀

[dense jungle]

That would be yourself

[dawn tiger]

ISnt there a mod for all 50 states?

[drowsy leaf]

i think its called "the crew" by "ubislop"

[lapis orchid]

if only someone made this high quality

[drowsy leaf]

it could be you

[lapis orchid]

yeah but i dont know how to do this

[dawn tiger]

Reference pics and a lot of jbeaming. Read the documentation for modding. https://documentation.beamng.com/modding/

[lapis orchid]

i mean at least someone please make a boat for this game

brand new

make the sea more active

[drowsy leaf]

user surprised there aint many boats in car game

[dawn tiger]

boats are annoying to make thats why there are like noe of them. Plus there isn't much water other than west coast at least that is worth driving in to see anything

[lapis orchid]

im not surprised

but im surprised that the boats form is dead

[drowsy leaf]

why

its a car game

[dawn tiger]

Would bee cool to have a mission where you deliver new cars to a dealer ship on a cargo ship tho

[spiral oar]

its not like the game has "drive" in its name for it to be a driving game 😮‍💨

[lapis orchid]

if its a car game, whats the point in planes

[drowsy leaf]

there is more airspace and big maps to play around than with boats

either way theres barely any of each category

because this is a car game and its mainly car mods

[spiral oar]

so when you get bored of driving, you can fly

on a serious note, i think its because the boat physics is kinda wonky, and while planes aren't perfect, have bit better physics. And i think planes are more popular? atleast the plane games are from what i see

[drowsy leaf]

car autism > plane autism > boat autism
-# (in terms of popularity)

[spiral oar]

you forgot about trains

[drowsy leaf]

Yeah but trains aren't in this discussion

It would be placed between car and plane

Then buses after plane?

[lapis orchid]

i think

i think…

i have all 3 of them

So

Yall likely know about the American Road remake someone did not too long ago right?

I wish someone did the same for the Roane County mod

https://www.beamng.com/resources/roane-county-tennessee-usa.1586/updates

Cause I feel like lowkey it'll never get another fresh update

Plus considerating the last update was April 2020

[paper basin]

Ofc its not embeding. Cool...

[coral edge]

Does anyone have fiat x1/9?

[dense jungle]

Get the uplink role in #roles

Also if you want a mod that’s doesn’t already exist, you are the person to do it

[wet dawn]

BEAMMP IS GONE
IT"S HACKED, DO NOT USE

[ripe path]

really?

[ripe path]

are u sure?

[wild crystal]

yeah the servers are all cookedf

[oak elk]

idk but delete it for now to be safe, probably nothing though

[wet dawn]

yes

[wild crystal]

probably not malicious but best to not use for now

[ripe path]

what happns if i try to use it

[wet dawn]

it was said by the account sync bot

[wet dawn]

you get hacked, don't risk it

[ripe path]

ok do i need to delete it or just not open it or use it?

[willow jay]

i deleted the server from ym discord

[wet dawn]

I've left BeamMP discord

[ripe path]

oh yeah all the channelsa re cooked

[wet dawn]

yes

[dense jungle]

Bruh, dont bring the hysteria here

[rocky spindle]

Beammp is cooked💀

[spiral oar]

mf be acting like the world is ending

[topaz raptor]

What should people with beam mp installed do?

I can’t view the announcement message

[ripe path]

do i need to uninstall?

[dense jungle]

No

[topaz raptor]

Will it affect my PC

Or my accounts

[dense jungle]

No

[ripe path]

just do windows + r and type Shell:appsfolder and find beammp, and right click it and press uninstall

done

[slate cobalt]

IMPORTANT BEAMMP ANNOUNCEMENT!

Hi all,

As you may be aware BeamMP Discord server has been bot raided.

We are looking into it and will let you know as soon as possible.

For now please do not launch BeamMP.

Thanks

Mr Rogue - BeamMP Staff

[ripe path]

ye dont launch

[analog holly]

I’ve opened both the beammp server and client recently, am running a pre-startup malware scan. Will report if it finds anything odd.

[heady token]

thanks william

[gray orchid]

are you doing it on a wirtuel macinh that would be best?

[dense jungle]

The github release was last updated in December, the client hasn’t been affected from what we can see, it’s only the discord

[sharp kernel]

I mean, if it were me I would do it on a vm on an isolated network

[analog holly]

Nope that poor sucker was running on my PC. Both of them. Completely coincidentally.

Which is why I’m running the scan

[gray orchid]

ok

[analog holly]

Because “oh poo, that’s my actual pc which may possibly have malware”

[dense jungle]

If they ddosed the backend, how would the be able to push out malware in that case

[analog holly]

Allegedly they “control” the backend, and as such took the site & related offline.

Which now they have that control, they can push an update which most clients would autoupdate to and execute the malware.

[wild crystal]

Im guessing if there was malware planted on it, itd only be for people that had last played beammp and updated the launcher?

[dense jungle]

I meant more if it’s ddosed, then they don’t have any C2 instance to push out

[elder galleon]

am i the only one that is stressed to the max?

[crimson vortex]

Reminds me of what happened to titanfall 2

[olive spire]

yes

you are the only one

[elder galleon]

🙂

[marsh agate]

Thank God I haven't played BeamMP for three years.

[wild crystal]

played it a few months back so i shouldf be fine

[cerulean ferry]

I haven't played or opened the launcher since early last year

[molten escarp]

and I played it few hours ago

😭

[marsh agate]

Change your password and deactivate your authorisation for BeamMP.. and block it.

[viscid marlin]

doing that now

[crude lion]

how did they get hacked!

[viscid marlin]

is the page down

[crimson vortex]

Bot token

[crude lion]

oh wow

[marsh agate]

I would try to avoid their website. Who knows if they made backdoors or not..

[dense jungle]

they shut down their backend infrastructure already

[viscid marlin]

no fr the whole beam mp discord only has one channel now

[tranquil flower]

I wonder what caused it? Did an admin on that server download a malicious mod? Knowing that BeamMP was known to have stolen/irl car mods from the usual places on the internet, I wouldn’t be surprised

[analog holly]

Update!

I’m about 12% through my entire pc (it’s a lot of files), no BeamMP/NG related malware. I will inform that Norton detected some malware in localtonet, but it tends not to like that type of program and I knowingly installed it a while ago. That result is expected and not a concern

In short, no malware at this time.

[spiral oar]

im seeing some mention of "PETYA FIX". but have no idea if people are trolling

[dense jungle]

one of the staff members in modding for dummies has said there's no indication any beamMP executable has been touched as well

[spiral oar]

what about their servers, maybe they can force users to download a file through them

[analog holly]

BeamMP (allegedly) have pulled the plug on their servers

[crimson vortex]

Servers are down.

[analog holly]

As such no malware can be distributed

[spiral oar]

were the servers instantly down, or was there a delay before they were taken down. but it seems the petya fix thing is a troll

[worthy flax]

yo guys is BeamMP dead? I havent played that in ages but wanted to hop on right now

[gray orchid]

no its not dead (i hope)

[spiral oar]

bad time rn

[viscid marlin]

very

[worthy flax]

seems like the website is down and stuff

[viscid marlin]

good

[worthy flax]

why tho?

[viscid marlin]

everything is down for beam mp till they figure something out

[worthy flax]

oh dang

[viscid marlin]

big hack

[spiral oar]

their discord got raided by someone. So they took everything down to be sure they haven't infected anything

[worthy flax]

great...

[viscid marlin]

so i would go play another game for now

[spiral oar]

there is KissMP if it still works

[worthy flax]

yeah... thanks for the Help tho

[analog holly]

No malware was picked up aside from localtonet, which I expected it to freak out about.

Would I run beammp right now? Probably not. But at the moment it seems no actual malware is present.

[wild crystal]

still best to be safe than sorry

ive uninstalled it, even though i havent played it in months, and i still did afull system scan

[crimson vortex]

All beammp backend servers are offline

Beammp will not work until they get them up

[wild crystal]

i just think its so wild how they decided the best place to hack was beammp

[pastel flare]

this situation crazy

[viscid marlin]

not the first time beam has been hacked

[pastel flare]

we needa find that little that hacked beammp

[spiral oar]

"beamMP discord situation is out of hand"

[pastel flare]

idk all of it

[plucky shard]

hello guys im coming from the beammp raid

[pastel flare]

lol what

[plucky shard]

for some reason, after beammp's server got raided i decided to join the beamng server

idk why i havent joined the beamng server earlier, like-

[wild crystal]

it had been hacked for days "apparently"

[plucky shard]

if you think thats weird, https://www.reddit.com/r/BeamMP/comments/1s4n8uf/did_the_beammp_discord_just_get_nuked/

that was 2 days ago

[pastel flare]

yeah i was in that thread

[plucky shard]

i think this is a good clarification

CLARIFICATION ON EVERYTHING:

you do not have to uninstall beammp. just do not launch it until said so. for the "data leak" stuff, beammp only collects your IP which is assigned to a local area, (etc. your ISP store) so for your location to get leaked it would be like finding a needle in a haystack. and for the "virus" stuff, just no. the beammp github hasnt had a commit in 2 days, which means it hasn't been updated in 2 days. so no virus.

[pastel flare]

you cant really ddos an individual server on discord, extremely hard, youd correctly assume its just discord itself being ddos'd not targetting you

nah, something like this the hacker(s) wouldve been there for months

[hoary rampart]

Its beammp?..

[plucky shard]

yes its beammp

[hoary rampart]

Bro its hacked..

[plucky shard]

we know

[hoary rampart]

Ehy giving the link

[royal palm]

i believe the "hack" is a basic troll and won't compromise any computer

[pastel flare]

thats a reddit link.

[plucky shard]

bro its not the link for the download?

[royal palm]

i posted a comment on reddit and ig i'll explain here again

[hoary rampart]

Ah

[plucky shard]

its just a post predicting the events

[royal palm]

The launcher just installs/updates and injects the mod into the game, and the mod only uses an internet connection to create a multiplayer hook and connect to servers. I believe the "hack" won't compromise or lock any computer since the mod doesn't write/read other files except in the game directory.

The person who spammed the message "BeamMP has been hacked!" obtained the Discord webhook token and used some tools like Discohook to spam. My question is, how did he get it?

I'm pretty sure the launcher downloads the mod from BeamMP's backend servers, and I don't think the person behind the chaos has access to the backend servers to update the latest mod file and injects a malware into it.

[plucky shard]

dw i already did

CLARIFICATION ON EVERYTHING:

you do not have to uninstall beammp. just do not launch it until said so. for the "data leak" stuff, beammp only collects your IP which is assigned to a local area, (etc. your ISP store) so for your location to get leaked it would be like finding a needle in a haystack. and for the "virus" stuff, just no. the beammp github hasnt had a commit in 2 days, which means it hasn't been updated in 2 days. so no virus.

[minor apex]

My brother works for BeamMP he said that it has been hacked internally

Disconnect your pc from wifi

[gray fractal]

Source: trust me bro

[pastel flare]

does anybody in the beammp discord have the current owner account? the one with the 👑 logo on it

is it the original server owner or a different account?

[elder galleon]

what?

[plucky shard]

oh well i just realized that beammp updates from a backend server automatically

[royal palm]

Yes but the URL of the backend server has parameters like "branch", which I think is an alias to "github.com"

[plucky shard]

oh

[pastel flare]

yes it does, constantly updating, malwares possible but its pretty easy to spot it

[plucky shard]

BUT we're still safe

[royal palm]

void CheckForUpdates(const std::string& CV) {
    std::string LatestHash = HTTP::Get("https://backend.beammp.com/sha/launcher?branch=" + Branch + "&pk=" + PublicKey);

[crimson vortex]

Backend servers are down rn anyway

[plucky shard]

if you're paranoid

[pastel flare]

anyone? ^

[plucky shard]

just install malwarebytes and run a scan every 15 minutes

[gray fractal]

I don’t see it

[plucky shard]

because i know yall are scared

[royal palm]

I think in the server guide it shows the owner, right?

nvm it got removed

[pastel flare]

yeah it will, im not in the server tho

[plucky shard]

https://backend.beammp.com/sha/launcher?branch=?

ok so wait

[royal palm]

I'm 99% sure this is a troll and a fake hacking scenario

[plucky shard]

early april fools joke?

[royal palm]

The only stuff he could get is like IP address but not files or pictures

[gray fractal]

To be fair, this is a first for a lot of us, some of us work night and day to make things for beammp and use it every day, I’ve never personally seen a discord nuke, especially not one like that. The devs last announcement is also ominous with the way they worded it so I feel like it’s warranted for a lot of us to be scared lol

[plucky shard]

yeah and your ip address cant leak your location because its only a local area

[royal palm]

who knows, but shutting down an entire server as an april joke, and 3-4 days before first april, is not funny and shouldn't happen

[royal palm]

Yeah, but many people thinks IP address will leak their house address or smth 💀

[plucky shard]

fr bro

[queen kraken]

theres also a torrential flood of misinformation about this while beammp are sorting their shit out too so dont believe any virus or ransomware claims unless beammp put this out themselves

[plucky shard]

YES GUYS YOU CANT GET A VIRUS

[gray fractal]

Exactly, it’s just hard to know what’s going on

[pastel flare]

if it was an april fools joke people would be way more angry lol

[plucky shard]

because im like 99% sure it just pulls the updates from the github repo which hasnt been updated in 2 days

people are claiming that the hack started 2 days ago

[gray fractal]

Yeah this would be a huge shot to their own foot if that were the case, clearly thousands of people don’t think it’s funny

[vapid trench]

Was BeamMP hacked?

[royal palm]

true, but currently nobody is angry, we're scared

I uninstalled beamng and beammp over 4 months ago so I'm practically safe

[plucky shard]

i cant uninstall beamng

[royal palm]

and I believe the "hacker" is a troll

[plucky shard]

i lik to see car demolish 👍

[gray fractal]

It’s likely

[plucky shard]

beamng is oddly satisfying

[pastel flare]

more like 10,000s lol

a very large portion of the playerbase uses beammp, people would be extremely angry...

beamng themselves would also likely sue... because this is a pretty serious crime. whoever is responsible if caught and proven is looking at 30 years

[royal palm]

@gray fractal read this

[plucky shard]

if it was an april fools joke it would be a huge relief but their rep would go down drastically

[royal palm]

the only, only question im wondering is, how did he got the webhook token

[pastel flare]

lol not their rep. theyd be in federal prison.

[royal palm]

did this happen days before backend stopped functioning?

i didn't play beamng for like 4 months

[vapid trench]

what's going on?

[gray fractal]

Yeah I saw it, I want to believe this is just some incel chud trying to scare people, I would like to believe y’all it would just suck for something bad to happen. Almost everyone I know slaves over this game so it would suck to see something bad happen to it that’s all

[royal palm]

we're explaining and trying to investigate the beammp issue

[vapid trench]

oh ok

[royal palm]

wait, i know the trick. it's not a hack

there is a vehicle i forgot its name, its small with big wheels. if you teleport that vehicle under ocean for like kilometers, it will respawn and respawn and sends multiple crash logs to people's console, causing extreme lag

[plucky shard]

oh wait

yeah i dont think it got hacked

the "hack" situation is probably just an excuse

we cant know tho

[gray fractal]

Plus, I’m also here trying to get any news possible for my community and keep everyone calm lol so it’s not just me, everyone who has woken up to see this in there is now beyond terrified and looking to me and the other admins for answers

[royal palm]

(FPU Wydra)

[pastel flare]

you have no idea what youre yapping about if you think clicking a random link can result in this im sorry

[gray fractal]

True, any link could be a hack link so if that were the case it could happen to anybody

[royal palm]

a fake or random link will not steal a webhook token or a discord token or anything else, unless they executed an unknown and untrusted executable file which gave the troll the pass to get into the server

[gray fractal]

At least some of us stuck around to learn something from y’all, I’ll admit idk how any of this works so it’s nice to see people who know what they’re talking about

[pastel flare]

even then that would need to be executed on the server side with admin access, not just on your own personal desktop

[royal palm]

the "bot" is a webhook

[vapid trench]

to be honest, based off the message apparently the virus will "lock down all computers" which is probably ransomware, but it's probably fake anyway

[royal palm]

it's like a bot but doesn't require a websocket client. you can directly send a REST request and it will perform it

[vapid trench]

I'll check in a sandbox

[pastel flare]

can guarantee thats not the devs message

well not guarantee

but it def read a bit... sketch

[gray fractal]

Yeah their last announcement was worded pretty suggestively

But that could also just be the idiot in me reading it wrong

[pastel flare]

i pray this is some like american kid hacking this and not some like unallied country

[drowsy leaf]

why

[gray fractal]

Give him 5 big booms and a cheeseburger to stop this madness

[drowsy leaf]

it doesnt matter if its random russian or random american

[pastel flare]

cause then the hacker will be found, sued, charged, and imprisoned

[drowsy leaf]

yeah sure buddy

hacking a website a discord bot and nuking a discord server?

i think the good ol US of A has better things to do with their time

[pastel flare]

malware on... how many installs of beammp? 3 million?

yeah, 30 years in prison easy.

[gray fractal]

Like sending taxpayer dollars to fund things the taxpayers do not want

[drowsy leaf]

bro we dont know if its malware

[royal palm]

These are the ways that the "hacker" probably got the webhook token:

1. In the site in a browser when you login or sync or anything related to account authentication (based on the webhook name from reddit), it sends a HTTP request to Discord with the webhook token. The token can be found from Inspect > Network and then click on any element that has Discord API URL in it and then check on the headers.

2. A server manager's account was compromised, allowing the "hacker" to access to the channel's webhooks and get the token.

[pastel flare]

it doesnt matter, still unauthorised installations

[drowsy leaf]

what do you mean unauthorized installations?

did you get beammp installed in your computer by magic?

[gray fractal]

I think this man is confused

[drowsy leaf]

seriously this level of fear mongering is fucking isane

[vapid trench]

there could be a virus in the automatic updates maybe

[drowsy leaf]

i dont think there even is 3 million beamng players

[vapid trench]

I can't prove that yet though

[pastel flare]

malware in beammp files.

installing anything unauthorised, malicious or not is a crime

[drowsy leaf]

how
do
you
know
it
has
malware?

[pastel flare]

it doesnt matter if its malware or not.

[drowsy leaf]

there is no proof for either side

[royal palm]

what if they're not in the United States, like from Russia? There are multiple lawsuits against copyrighted content currently hosted in Russia, and the United States can do nothing. The only solution is to increase security aginst DDoS attacks and potential trolls

[vapid trench]

how do you know it's not malware? Have you tested it yet?

[gray fractal]

Bro they don’t, they’re just saying “if”, you ever heard of a hypothetical?

[pastel flare]

yeah thats why i said i hope its an american/allied, not russia etc

[vapid trench]

If you have I would like to see it

[pastel flare]

yes thats my point

beammp isnt liable

[drowsy leaf]

either way i seriously doubt "3+ million" players are affected

[royal palm]

If the launcher executable file was never updated, we're safe.
If the mod file modified date was last time changed 3 or over days ago, we're safe.
Anything else, means we're not safe BUT the "hacker" didn't access to our files, UNLESS the launcher executable file was modified

[gray fractal]

Guys it’s 100% safe because @drowsy leaf said so

[pastel flare]

nobody knows.

[drowsy leaf]

im not saying that

[pastel flare]

objective fact

[vapid trench]

still haven't given us evidence that it's not malware

[wild crystal]

also no evidence ther is malware

[drowsy leaf]

are there even 3 million beamng players

[vapid trench]

then test it yourself

[royal palm]

the entire raid/chaos is a troll dawg

im pretty sure there is no malware, but i could be wrong

[pastel flare]

yes, on the beammp website when it was up it says "3+ million downloads" something like that

[wild crystal]

im not saying i want evidence of malware, but there isnt evidence of malware, and there is not evidence of no malware

[drowsy leaf]

ive downloaded beammp about 6 times because the installer breaks sometimes

and im pretty sure a lot of people have had to done that

[golden cradle]

you literally cant get a virus unless you open it and that would be IF it was infected which is so unlikely. beammp only updates when you OPEN it

[elder galleon]

where is the beammp server????

[pastel flare]

well ofc its a troll, but depends on what theyve actually done

[elder galleon]

oh no that is problem on my side sorry

[royal palm]

look, i've saw and been a victim against these attacks on my own projects, and i understood all of their methods. one of my projects has a severe based score vulnerability, which helped a hacker to ruin everything. but i think all beammp packages/dependencies are up to date?

[spark python]

Geez.. RIP BeamMP

Raided.

[pastel flare]

yes but it doesnt matter if its executed or not. installing unauthoried malicious content onto a pc, whether it causes damage or not, is a serious crime

doing that to 1 pc alone is 12 years in federal prison here.

[vapid trench]

the website is down too

[royal palm]

don't they have a server template ready in case a raid happened?

or did discord removed the server template feature

[drowsy leaf]

not all servers have

[spark python]

No clue. I don't work for them.

[drowsy leaf]

and i mean that isnt an issue, its the messages that were lost that matters more

[spark python]

ITS NOT A TROLL

[vapid trench]

so no backups?

[drowsy leaf]

website ? probably
discord server? unknown, maybe

[royal palm]

true. they're permanently gone if all channels were deleted

[spark python]

The server made almost 100 channels and sent nearly 4k pings, its not a troll.

Simply a staff member got mad.

[royal palm]

i've never checked oldest messages in the beammp server, but i guess like 2018-2019?

[drowsy leaf]

yeah their discord bot token got leaked apparently?

and then the bot itself raided everything

[royal palm]

wait hold up, not only the webhook token got leaked?

[drowsy leaf]

im not sure what got leaked

[royal palm]

it's obviously a troll, not troll by the beammp staff, but by another person

[royal palm]

the webhook token is 100% leaked, from the reddit pic i saw

[pastel flare]

everything got leaked, its not just discord... the website is down, the vps is compromised

[spark python]

Well, In my opinion, Reddit is full of goof nuts.

[drowsy leaf]

no im pretty sure they took down the website and everything themsleves to prevent further hacking

[royal palm]

they shutdown the backend to avoid further damage

[drowsy leaf]

since yesterday they had been getting ddos attacks

[royal palm]

[spark python]

Geez, I bet that was scary.

[vapid trench]

I hope the github is fine and the docs

[royal palm]

github has 2FA so it's secure

always check the commits, last one was 2 days ago so ig everything on github is fine

[gray fractal]

Is this the first time this has happened? Genuine question because I’ve been making mods for beam and beammp for about 6 years now and I’ve never noticed anything like this before…

[royal palm]

(and has a bot to detect if the account was compromised or not)

[spark python]

I think so yes, last time a mod got hacked was American Roads or something.

[gray fractal]

Actually I do remember that, it was a while ago if I’m not mistaken but I remember seeing a lot of people talking about it

[royal palm]

first time, i've been playing beammp for almost 4 years and this never happened

[drowsy leaf]

big hacks in beamng?
no
the user behind the American Roads mod got comproimse and they updated it with malware, thats why beamng forums have 2fa now

theres also been some malware exploit due to the game running on a 2013 build of CEF (chrome embedded framekwork) that was running around in some modland mods

[spark python]

I hate modland.

it should get taken down.

[gray fractal]

Interesting, thanks for the information

[gray fractal]

Agreed

[drowsy leaf]

but you have to look at this to understand

[gray fractal]

I have to post my mods on there so they don’t get leaked by other people but I still hate it lol

[drowsy leaf]

beamng has popped off massively starting in 2020

beamng is now important enough to be a vector of attack for hackers

[gray fractal]

Yeah that’s when almost everyone I know got into it

[drowsy leaf]

this also means beammp which a lot of people play (and doesnt count for steam charts) is also a big vector of attack

[spark python]

Half the mods on modland are leaked

[gray fractal]

I know it’s so bad

[drowsy leaf]

nope

[spark python]

Most likely because of these

[drowsy leaf]

those have been going on since like 2015

[spark python]

Ik

[drowsy leaf]

the game just has started being more of a game and less of a "tech demo"

[spark python]

I remember watching them when I was younger, now its js like braindead Bs

[drowsy leaf]

have you guys played old beamng?
it ran worse, looked waaay worse, drove worse and the sounds were awful

[gray fractal]

I believe modland either has scouts or bots connected to the repo, because the same day I put one of my mods on the repo, it and (at least) 5 other mods were posted by some random account that looks like the only thing they do is post mods. It is so annoying

[drowsy leaf]

yes theres many accounts in midland that automatically repost mods from the repo

just to scrape that 0.0000001€ of ad revenew by using modsfire

[gray fractal]

lol for real

[spark python]

Yes, there is a way to play it on steam or something.

[drowsy leaf]

you can either use steam depot or under betas theres old versions available

[thick niche]

dang ol'e beammp

[drowsy leaf]

i suggest you play 0.14.4 which is the last dx10 supported version iirc

[spark python]

ye

[thick niche]

that shouldn't have any affect

[drowsy leaf]

if you havent launched it in like the span of 24h i doubt anything is going to happen to you

[lean rapids]

WE reviving Kissmp now

[drowsy leaf]

yes please

[gray fractal]

I’m cooked 😂

[thick niche]

no

[drowsy leaf]

the updater only runs when you launch it so i doubt youve got any issues if you havent launched it

[thick niche]

it was fine at 11pm est lastnight.

[gray fractal]

There’s no red dude jumping around on my screen yet so pray for me y’all

[lean rapids]

y'all should delete beammp from your firewall

[drowsy leaf]

from your firewall_?_

[thick niche]

he probably means block it for now

[lean rapids]

i found beammp connected to my firewall

in here

[thick niche]

yes because it has to have privledges to get through your network to work.

[crimson vortex]

Its almost as if it's a multiplayer mod that needs to access the firewall

[lean rapids]

yeah

[thick niche]

stop putting fear into people, it aint that deep.

[drowsy leaf]

just uninstall beammp

[lean rapids]

already did

[lean rapids]

better to be causious

[drowsy leaf]

then you should be fine

[gray fractal]

Better safe than sorry, I believe all the smart folks in here that say we’re probably fine but it’s worth being cautious

[thick niche]

if you're setup for 2fa you aint gotta have anything to worry about.

[lean rapids]

well, they can hack our accounts on beammp but who cares

[thick niche]

they been doing this to live for speed for decades

[thick niche]

your beammp is tied to your email, if your email isn't 2fa then your smooth brain.

[dense jungle]

someone is typing in the beammp server

[drowsy leaf]

it got its logo back

[dense jungle]

thats it, life is back to normal

[gray fractal]

2fa with google has screwed me so many times now that I just use throwaways. My beammp account is tied to some obscure disposable email I created specifically for beammp so even if it’s compromised I’ll just connect it to one of my 10 others lol

[thick niche]

2fa with google has worked for me fine for like 10+ years.

[drowsy leaf]

ive moved all my 2fa stuff to a password manager

[dense jungle]

ive yet to get another password manager after lastpass fucked up

[drowsy leaf]

i use keepassxc and keepasandroid

[dense jungle]

its just a "havent got round to it" thing

[buoyant dock]

yo if i delete beammp-launcher i will be fine?

[dense jungle]

aaand thats general chat back in beammp

[gray fractal]

I’m sure it does, I just have bad luck with it between breaking phones, selling or giving pcs to my friends, older emails getting deactivated. I lost my main google account of 11 years because of 2fa. Didn’t have the phone number, didn’t have the recovery email, and the last device it was logged into was a now wiped pc I gave to a friend of mine half a country away

[dense jungle]

bruh

so they get hacked but dont allow gifs?

[buoyant dock]

i will delete it for now and not use my pc

when we will get info i will use it

[dense jungle]

honestly its less about that and more about the fact a gif isnt a deleted message but a 5 minute timeout

[plucky shard]

i just got confirmation that beammp pulls updates from github, which makes the virus possibility 0%

[buoyant dock]

i hope it was a prank

[plucky shard]

"asks the backend and backed pulls EXE from GitHub"

[dense jungle]

i mean deleted on its own

im talking about the message being deleted by itself without a timeout

a timeout is too much

[plucky shard]

ok i just wanted t osee if i could send gifs

i cant send images so i wanted to send it with a gif but

[dense jungle]

get the uplink role in #roles

[dry quarry]

Was beammp compromised?

[plucky shard]

we have intel

i am currently searching for more information

info keeps raining

[lean rapids]

lmao

[thorny garnet]

Where to promote third party application solely made for BeamNG community?

Anyone?

[spiral oar]

depending on what it is, you could promote it in one of the mods / modding channels, or on reddit or somewhere on the forums

[crimson vortex]

The forums. Make sure to check posting rules

[thorny garnet]

I had developed a racing steering controller app with android i know it will be considered a third party apk but i have no plans of commercializing it or of profiting from it.

Solely made it for fun and experimentation.

[thorny garnet]

Did tried forums earlier its posted but not accessible!

[spiral oar]

one guy made a mouse shifting program, uploaded to github, and he promoted it on reddit and had some success there

https://www.reddit.com/r/BeamNG/comments/1nadxal/made_a_cool_application_that_uses_ur_mouse_as_h/

[thorny garnet]

I had it on modland and had around 2k downloads since with 40-50 daily active users.

[crimson vortex]

Posts get checked by moderators before they are allowed on the forums just be patient and it will show up

[thorny garnet]

Still waiting its been 3,4 months

[spiral oar]

a link to modland might not be allowed on the forums, not sure. for couple of obvious reasons

[crimson vortex]

Check if its been deleted

[thorny garnet]

My app name is Steer BeamNG and its fully accessible from Github and its downloadables are on github as well. Just used modland for publicity.

[drowsy leaf]

modland ew

[thorny garnet]

I don't want to continue with modland cause i didn't knew a lot about them earlier.

Are BeamNG players interested in something like this?

[drowsy leaf]

most arent

also please tell me you didnt ai generate those images

[thorny garnet]

And what about the players who don't have access to a steering setup?

[thorny garnet]

Ask @lean rapids he had already tested it!

[spiral oar]

this shifter program on reddit had some traction, so there might be some out there that will be interested

[drowsy leaf]

most players prefer keyboard or controller over a phone touchscreen

[thorny garnet]

Got it, but there's are still usecases for it.

[thin widget]

….why would i use a worse input method when i have a controller?

[drowsy leaf]

id rather play on keyboard than on a phone touchscreen

[thin widget]

Real

[drowsy leaf]

source = nfs carbon emulated ps2 was ASSSSSS

[thorny garnet]

Don't want to trigger you, just mentioning its free and for anyone who dont have access to a controller or want to have custom buttons or layouts for more controls.

[clever yarrow]

More control options aren't a bad thing

[drowsy leaf]

youve posted about it here already, make a post in reddit and on the forums
theres nothing more you can do

[thorny garnet]

So how on keyboard you get every angle of steering covered also handling with keyboard is hard!

[drowsy leaf]

and please dont fucking use ai generated text like you did in #game-discussion-1

[thorny garnet]

Just having fun nothing have a lot to do today

[thorny garnet]

My bad i wont thanks for advice

[drowsy leaf]

a keyboard gives me feedback if ive pushed a key or not, to get feedback from a phone touchscreen, you need to look at it, which is not ideal for a car game

[thorny garnet]

I had kept that point in mind while developing it, thats why you dont have to look in to screen all the time

Throttle, brake and parking break can be controlled with one thumb.

And steering with other thumb.

And for shifting in realistic mode, i had made made the gearboxes to work like real ones, knob is grabbed by anywhere touching in gearbox and then you shift with your memory not by looking

[thorny garnet]

Had recently implemented Haptic feedback for vibrations.

[drowsy leaf]

oh thats cool then

[thorny garnet]

Also you can enjoy tilt steering with max angle of 2160° but 50° is enough if you play with phone held in your hands.

[grave drift]

i was AFK, any news on the beamMP server and situation??

[thorny garnet]

I think the visual feedback is more accurate with a virtual steering rather then a keyboard.

I am open to everyone's feedback and still improving the app and happy to answer every doubt and query

[drowsy leaf]

do you look at your steering wheel, throttle pedals and shifter when you are driving? not really

either way if you have haptic feedback its sort of okay

[thorny garnet]

No there's no need to look, i mean you look at your monitor and play with your phone in your hands no need to look at the phone screen.

[thorny garnet]

2 thumbs are enough for complete control.

[thick niche]

I think it's pretty neat.

[clever yarrow]

Discord server is locked down, but has a general chat available. They've got some advice about checking your beammp launcher for a signature too. Seems at most the bad actor may only have obtained account names, emails, and salted passwords.

[thorny garnet]

Thanks man, feel free to give it a try its Steer BeamNG on google. https://github.com/Abubakar-doc/steer_beamng_guide

cant even rejoin the server lol, idk if thats on my side, wanted to join to see what is going on but cant even do that LUL

and this

[clever yarrow]

Invites might be paused until they resolve the issue

[coral aspen]

yeah could be

[carmine grail]

yo

anyone have any honda civic mods that are like actually good

and not a quick crash grab

[carmine grail]

that wasnt my question gng </3

[errant oriole]

you should make a button box

[thorny garnet]

Its already implemented, you can use existing buttons or you can add your own custom buttons. Altogether you can have up to 128 buttons in a single page or multiple. Also you can backup and share your layouts of your button box with your friends.

[thick niche]

they shut the servers and websites down themselves.

[coral aspen]

yea i know that, this was about the discord server

[wise lava]

So everyone knows that BeamMP is down, yes?

Well slight issue... While trying to verify it's integrity like 20 seconds ago it erased itself from my system.

Something about "the files for this app are no longer located here on the system, please try another way" kept popping up too

[thorny garnet]

For example

[thick niche]

yes it's down. it's normal operation for beammp exe to delete itself

[wise lava]

Oh

Ok then 👍

[buoyant fern]

It did this day before yesterday when the auth servers were DDOSed. Just uninstalled itself

[thick niche]

indeed.

normal.

it pulls a request from the github everytime you launch it.

[buoyant fern]

Someone really must have it in for BeamMP at the moment 😆

[radiant atlas]

why cant i launch beammp

oh

[dense hatch]

So as long as its not being updated (ran) im good. (I havent played beammp for a solid month or something)

[radiant atlas]

i have played beammp for like 2 months

[sullen stag]

when will there ever be a mod for 2017-2019 highlanders????

[dense hatch]

make one

[rose beacon]

I played BeamMP yesterday am I cooked

[thick niche]

no

[abstract tulip]

was just about to ask in the discord. yikes

[quick lynx]

i would uninstall Beammp and delete all cookies form beammp page

[viscid quiver]

Does anyone know where to find some decent police interceptor mods

[olive spire]

Dont need to

[carmine grail]

how much would it cost for sm1 to make me a mod?

[dense jungle]

thousands, but now you mentioned it, you will get scammers in your dms

[carmine grail]

😔

[gilded mauve]

does any1 have any updates about beammp

?

[crude narwhal]

I'm looking for 2 mods for the D series- Rear frame-mounted licence plate and Earlyier than the current "Early" that has round headlights

[acoustic nymph]

Does anyone else think it's worthwhile to perform a full system wipe in light of the whole beammp hack? I know they said it's an "if it's run" then you're at risk but it's not been made clear what the window of impact was and if it's been trojaned for a little while because of the previous server issues? Wondering if it could end up case of doing too little too late as users

[dawn tiger]

There is no information there even Is a Trojan or if the actuall program was hacked

[opaque coyote]

No its pointless

They didnt compromise the client, only their servers and discord bot

[acoustic nymph]

The lack of information is what concerns me to be honest, don't really know what we're playing with

[dense jungle]

follow these steps on your beammp launcher

[dense jungle]

data may have been compromised, the backend and discord was affected but the client doesn't appear to have been changed

[meager dew]

ok should i be scared that my mail gets hacked?

[dawn tiger]

Just change your password if your worried

[meager dew]

i did it but i cant change my beammp password

[dawn tiger]

Thats down right now you wont be able to

[meager dew]

ok

[opaque coyote]

Just change your passowords incase. They only got hashed strings but you can change in case

[dense jungle]

im ngl i cant remember my own beammp login let alone the password

[dawn tiger]

Same i just hope it logs itself in when I play each time lol

[dense jungle]

i mean i havent even used it in yonks anyway so even if it was compromised, i wouldnt be affected

[lime lintel]

did they hack the beammp site?

[dawn tiger]

Yea my launcher is from November so im good

[meager dew]

no it was shut down by the devs

[dense jungle]

its not known but the devs shut it down as a precautionary measure

[dense jungle]

i think mine goes further back lol

[lime lintel]

then why did they say change ur reused passwords

[dense jungle]

because data may have been stolen including hashed passwords which if you reused them, they in theory could try your email + that password with other sites

[meager dew]

i use microsoft authenticator

its an mobile app

[opaque coyote]

They dont have plain text passwords, the chance of decrypting is very low

[crude narwhal]

I'm looking for 2 mods for the D series- Rear frame-mounted licence plate and Earlyier than the current "Early" that has round headlights

[dense jungle]

thats why i said hashed passwords

[opaque coyote]

Yeah but you said “they in theory could try your email + that password with other sites” they would need to decrypt them for that

[viscid surge]

hey guys how do i use Arcanox Core i have the ui on my screen for it appers for a second and then disapeers

[dawn tiger]

I mean still not 0 chance tho

[viscid surge]

??

[opaque coyote]

Yeah thats why they advise changing them. Also depends what crypt they used to hash them.

[dense hatch]

well I mean technically it wasnt 0 percent when they for sure didnt have the info

[pastel flare]

i aint even know wtf email and password i used for beammp its probably a burner so, they can have that

[dense hatch]

ya I sign in with username

I know password tho

[lime lintel]

guys i have a question about mods

how can i find a mod's original creator on modland there is a lot of virussy reuploaders and sometimes i cant find original one

[dawn tiger]

Read comments usually someone is in there saying who they ripped off

[pastel flare]

in the files of the mod

"Authors" part

or if its just a reupload theyll usually say whos it is

[viscid surge]

plsssss help meh

[pastel flare]

on modland

[pastel flare]

i have no idea what that is

[lime lintel]

they dont say it generally

[lime lintel]

without downloading

[spiral oar]

did you try googling the mod name, it might show up somewhere else?

[lime lintel]

no didnt

[spiral oar]

all my mods that get reuploaded have my author name in the description, but that might not be case for all mods

[lime lintel]

i will try look them thx

[dense hatch]

Just dont go on modland at all

[dawn tiger]

Its like north Korea we just avoid it all costs

[pastel flare]

umm idk research it? not really much other way

[lime lintel]

ok ty

[dawn tiger]

Yea but why would you its full of stolen crap sick people and bad leaders

Just like modland

[spiral oar]

10/10 analogy 🔥

[dense jungle]

but there are a few tourists who try it out while knowing it's bad

[dusky cedar]

Anyone got a good chevy colorado? I have looked around a bit but cant seem to find anything soild thank you

[sour dew]

“Core” meaning it’s a “core” mod… you dont use it.

[late needle]

Anyone know any updates on the MP issue?

[placid ridge]

@dense tangle This you?

[dense tangle]

[fervent olive]

[fervent olive]

the sync is a collab

If you wanna make a dedicated forum for it bacon feel free

[dawn tiger]

I cant wait for Subaru refresh

[placid ridge]

Alright, just worried about theft.

[dense tangle]

nah ill use your thread but release it on repo myself

[fervent olive]

sounds good

[bold plaza]

hey where can i find the beammp server?

[sleek ermine]

It got hacked

that's why he beammp is down

[pseudo berry]

rip

[steel dove]

Quick question. how do i make a car screen resolution higher? Cant find it for the love of it

Like the center console screen.

[dawn tiger]

In the jbeam there should be a width and height settings. Also in the html/js/css itself there should also be a setting

[steel dove]

in which jbeam? ive checked nearly every one. the stock html is 256x128, whereas mien is 512x128 and its like zoomed in... thats ig a resolution issue? ive checked every jbeam

[dry quarry]

Why not 512x256?

[steel dove]

mb i mean 512x256

mistype lol

Yeah I cant find it in any jbeam wth

[dawn tiger]

it could also be your uv map

[quartz pecan]

Is BeamMP back? Or are they still down?

[mild glade]

Try it

[quartz pecan]

Oh fun, so basically sensitive info

[dawn tiger]

Only sensitive info is an ip adress really

[dense hatch]

Even thats not that bad

[dawn tiger]

Yea as long as they donthave my actual password im chill lol

[sonic spear]

does anyone know of any 1970s dodge ram van mods?

[dark dove]

As long as they don’t have some kind of beef with me idc lollll, not much they’ll do with my ip i don’t think

[dark dove]

Yea I luckily had my mp password set to like the most basic thing on earth lmfao

Like a 5 year old could guess it

Literally

And only had it on one other account, which was an MP hosting website for my private mps, so yeah just changed my password on that and im sweet

But i’ve gone round and changed every single BeamNG-related account password to a securely generated password to avoid hackers getting access to my important accounts, in the case some other accounts were hacked for some reason

[toxic current]

passwords were encrypted no?

[dark dove]

Yea i think so

[tawdry minnow]

Are there any performance enhancement mods for Intel hd 4400?

[jagged plaza]

where do you go to find this

and how do i reset my password if i cant get onto the website?

[lilac pewter]

is there a mod like RK highly customizable engines for codename fullsize mod?

[dark dove]

Reset your password on any other websites that use the same password as your MP account

[dark dove]

The BeamMP discord, google it

[modest ember]

so just to be clear, has your password been compromised only if you use the forum?

[dark dove]

I think if you’ve used MP at all

Don’t quote me though

[frank summit]

I did not log into beammp

I just chose a user and then it was done

No email no password

[harsh hatch]

So a guest account, you should be fine then

[crystal hearth]

What are some good Airbag mods ?(As in, airbags inside the vehicle)

[limber ravine]

Does anyone know if BeamMP required users to create an account to do multiplayer? Or was it just for the forums

[opaque coyote]

it didnt require, you could play as guest

[opaque coyote]

it shares the login for both forum and ingame

[limber ravine]

Oh awesome! I should be fine then bc I never used the forum

[warm hazel]

Not really a mod but it is about mods. Can I relocate my appdata beam ng mod folder to a different drive other than my C drive? I have 70GB of mods and its filling it up 😄

[opaque coyote]

yeah you can move the mods folder to a different location. when you open the beam executable, there is the menu and you can select the option to manage user folder

[frank summit]

Good question

Google would help

[crystal hearth]

Google did not help

Google gave me links that were the same mod over and over again
