I'm not hating, just sharing my experience. It's not as bad as it may seem.

lucid peak
#

the manual one is kinda easier if you start with something like second gear

#

before moving into starting with first gear

ocean flower
#

i use it as example

#

But what i say was understandable anyway

lucid peak
#

it does take months anyway, even people acquainted with modeling and blender take months to 3d model a proper jbeamed car

#

with a working interior and such

#

so, yeah

#

it will take time, but as long as the results are rewarding, i am a patient lad

ocean flower

I could but i dont kknow how to make needles working

latent ivy

I can’t create mods.

barren elbow

Me neither

latent ivy

Yeah, I want it to come back.

barren elbow
#

Me neither

#

Oops

latent ivy
#

I don’t know how to create mods anymore.

#

Could someone make something like this it would be freakin awesome

hushed cobalt
#

You could try to do it yourself, for me it looks like a good starting point to learn how to mod

neat widget
#

yea i thought soo too but how do i even get started

hushed cobalt
#

The MfD server could help you

neat widget
#

?? whats that

hushed cobalt
neat widget
#

ah

hushed cobalt
#

A Discord server

#

There's help for pretty much everything there

neat widget
#

ok i will try to find it

#

@hushed cobalt i found it but i dont understand where to ask for help

hushed cobalt
#

Use tutorials

#

From my very limited knowledge you'd need basic jbeam

neat widget
#

ok what program should i use

hushed cobalt
#

Blender (modelling), Notepad++ (jbeam) and Gimp/Paint/etc (skins) if I ain't mistaken

neat widget
#

damn it sounds hard

hushed cobalt
#

You should practice modelling in general before going into modding for that project

neat widget
#

ok

#

what would it be called in blender

#

sculpting ?

hushed cobalt
#

My knowledge stops here, sorry

neat widget
#

ah ok

bold kestrel

how much would it cost to make a toyota hiace mod for me

drowsy frost
#

Why can't you learn to make one yourself?

keen thunder
#

I kinda wish somebody made a RAF-2203 mod

#

I mean I would make it but it'd probably turn out to be a steaming hot pile of garbage

#

oh well

drowsy frost
#

In modding help theres a server which can teach you everything you need to know with modding pretty much

#

If you're interested in modding anyway

#

Its in the pinned messages

devout solstice
#

yet no one really helps there anyways

lucid tulip
#

so i want to make a 2005ish mustang and call it the GRAVIL MOUNT and found a good one on modland i wanna fix it up and make it truly good i dont know where the jbeam file is and its a based off a moonhawk

#

any tips

keen thunder
#

well first you should find out if you are actually allowed to use mesh,etc

drowsy frost

im going to make a moc up in blender

ocean flower
#

Like i say every time , start with something simple

lucid peak
#

hey @devout solstice i really wanted to ask a couple questions regarding modding if you dont mind

#
  1. whats the difference between low poly and high poly models? i dont think i quite got it
#
  1. does beam use low poly or high poly?
#
  1. do you consider your bike's model to be low poly or high poly? it seems high poly since its detailed but idk. also do cars differ from bikes in terms of the whole poly thing?
#
  1. how do you create a unique sound for a car in beam? i always wanted to know
#

hope theyre not much

devout solstice
# lucid peak hey <@!166198268265627649> i really wanted to ask a couple questions regarding m...
  1. Low poly = Low vertices count, vice versa
  2. The game may use either high or low poly models. Higher poly models aren't needed but will have a bit more of an impact to your system.
  3. High poly. Poly count is just defined by how you model it.
  4. All I do is grab and audio sample from anywhere that fits the vehicle, you can use Sbeam files or sfxBlend2D files. Sbeam files are used for applying sound files to throttles, whilst sfxBlend2D files need multiple sound files, chopped into different frequencies matching the RPM and assigning them inside the file so they will linearly blend to create a better, cleaner, and more flexible sound than sBeams can. Though you must also assign the sfxBlend2D file name to your engine jbeam in order to allow it to work.
#

To chop up the audio, I use FL Studios. You may use audacity or any other simple DAWS.

lucid peak
# devout solstice 1. Low poly = Low vertices count, vice versa 2. The game may use either high or ...
  1. I finally can understand it, thanks a ton. This means that stock Beam cars are high poly, right?
    2 and 3. So if I'm going to model my first car, it better be high poly (since I suppose low poly is like a laughable 144p 3d model lmao), right?
  2. Is creating an Sbeam file from the ground up hard? I'm looking forward to dedicating myself to my first main project being a Hyundai Veloster N (and if I get the hang of Blender, perhaps the whole 2017-2020 Veloster lineup) and I'd love if it has a custom sound. I wouldn't like it to be a Cherrier Arsenic copycat, in terms of sound, in a different body (which is really what most meshslaps do). I'd love to know how easy or hard is it to create a custom engine sound. Also, is it possible to create custom crackles and pops? I really would love my mod to be well done and authentic, even if it will take time and dedication
devout solstice
#
  1. Beams vanilla vehicles are usually 70k-130k-ish depending on the size of the vehicle.
  2. Low poly in beams case can mean anything under 80k verts imo.
  3. No creating an sbeam file is really easy. All you need is one sound that's on a single rpm or no noticeable change in pitch, and just enter values in one line of code. Though this creates a result that sounds really uneasy to the ears on the higher pitches as the sound gets "skinnier". sfxBlend2D files on the other hand have a linear blend when given multiple sound files which can keep the bass and mids in whilst throttling unlike the sBeams.
#
lucid peak
# devout solstice 1. Beams vanilla vehicles are usually 70k-130k-ish depending on the size of the ...

1 and 2. Oh I see. Well, I'd like something similar in quality to Beam's vanilla cars but not too difficult for me to model. I guess 100k-110k vertices is a sweet spot then.
4. I suppose, by all that, you mean that the sfxBlend2D platform is much better and more advanced than the Sbeam platform. Is there any difference between both? I just went into the link you sent and I'm a pure noob but, it seems more complicated to me. Since the sfxBlend2D platform is more...conservative in terms of sound making, I guess I'll adapt it into my car. The platform can include also custom crackles and pops right? The default ones in Beam (in stuff like the K-series) have a deep groan, while the Veloster N's are fruity in comparison. You can have a listen here:
https://youtu.be/M1FvWUidKTk
https://youtu.be/SVR6FBE6DyA?t=115
Or at least, fruitier crackles and pops to my ears.
Other questions:
5. How can one build a custom gauge cluster? I want it to be the same as the Veloster N's, with accurate gauges and similar actions. Is a custom gauge cluster easy to build?
6. As you can see in the image at the bottom, the Veloster N has a small color LCD in the middle for displaying various drivetrain info and stuff alike. In my mod, I'd like it to just show the trip info (like in the first picture) in the Eco and Comfort modes, and I'd also like it to show the drivemode at the top (picture 3) and for the accent colors to change. However, in the Sport and N modes, I'd like it to show the drivetrain info (picture 2) in real time from Beam's data. I guess it's pretty complicated, but is it doable? I've seen aljowen (creator of Raven cars) do pretty damn complex digital driver displays that are not only cool but also interactive. I don't need mine to be interactive, I just need mine to adapt to the drive modes. So, is it doable?

A few short sound clips of the Veloster N with Performance Package. This is the stock exhaust in "N" mode.

Also tried to figure out how to use the launch control, but it still eludes me.

All driving took place on a closed course by professionals.

▶ Play video

Just a quick video showcasing the Veloster N's awesome stock exhaust system.

In normal mode, the car is fairly quiet, with minimal depth/growl and no pops.
In Sport mode, the exhaust valve opens and adds volume, depth, and tone. The idle RPM also slightly increases.
In N mode, the exhaust valves remain open, and the car's exhaust will pop on th...

Picture 2.

#

Picture 3 (note it saying "N" for N mode at the top, right next to custom. Not the "N" for neutral).

lucid peak
# lucid peak Picture 2.
  1. As you noticed in the second picture, the N has 2 types of lighting. The one on the tach displays the oil temp in real time. The one above the digital display is the shift light, which is similar to an F1 car's shift lights. Are both doable in some way?
  2. Can certain info, like BeamNG time and temp, as well as the current gear and an expected mileage (maybe?), be shown in the gauge cluster? Doable?
  3. As you can tell, I'd like the Veloster to have custom drive modes much similar to the real life car, where Eco favors shortshifting (DCT exclusive, can't apply to the manual), decreased performance, the most silent exhaust setting, and toned-down throttle response, while the N mode, for example, pretty much amps the car's performance to the max and turns on the active exhaust's crackles and pops (which are exclusive to N mode). I guess drive modes are easily doable, right?
  4. Are live engine parts (radiator fan and the likes) doable within the Veloster N's custom modeled engine?
    ||Look I know I haven't even started modelling, but it's the two weeks of finals that are left before I step my game up and start modeling in Blender||

  1. Thanks a lot!
  2. Right. So that means I can create a clear sound output through sfxBlend with custom sounds as well as custom crackles and pops, I suppose. Thanks a lot.
  3. I see. I guess I'll have to refer to people to help with that, since my knowledge in all is very limited (despite me being more capable in HTML and CSS). Thanks again.
  4. Last question I promise (and I'm sorry for asking a ton as a complete noob): what are the best channels to refer to when learning modeling in Blender? Do you have any personal favorites?
lucid peak
latent ivy
lucid peak
#

Isn't high poly high quality models?

#

And low poly...minecraft like?

latent ivy
#

mine craft is made out of cubes

#

the model that I posted above is low poly

#

low poly is good

lucid peak
#

This is what I imagine low poly is like.

latent ivy
#

models can be low poly and not look like cubes with the right modifiers

lucid peak
#

A little less...fine-sculpted and more abstract.

latent ivy
lucid peak
#

Oh.

#

Well I imagined you referred to low poly as something similar to this.

#

Which is used in phone arcade games.

#

I didn't know your model was low poly too.

lucid peak
latent ivy
#

this is the model without shade smooth and edge split

lucid peak
#

Oh.

latent ivy
#

look at the official vehicles

lucid peak
#

So my model must look like this, then it will look more...professional and high poly-like using the modifiers, right?

latent ivy
#

pretty much....

lucid peak
#

Right.

#

So CRGZ's model is basically that.

#

And so are the official vehicles, you're saying.

#

Right?

#

I suppose yes.

lucid peak
#

Alright.

#

This makes the job much easier, I suppose.

latent ivy
#

a lot

#

I have no idea what CRGZ's model looks like...

lucid peak
# latent ivy a lot

How hard do you reckon modeling this will be? Since you have the red accents, the vents, etc (the bottom is busy)

latent ivy
lucid peak
latent ivy
#

I had been using it for about half a year

#

I hadn't actually completed modeling a car until then though

lucid peak
#

yea i can tell

#

i never used blender

#

so everything about it

latent ivy
#

It's not very user friendly

lucid peak
#

is new to me

#

the UI, buttons and the likes

lucid peak
latent ivy
#

I actually have a book

latent ivy
#

I can link some but I'm busy rn

lucid peak
latent ivy
#

still have lots to learn in blender

lucid peak
#

like just name me a few from the top of your head

latent ivy
#

but

#

you can look up videos on how to model cars and you should get the idea in an hour or two

#

or at least, that's how it was for me

lucid peak
#

so i might be able to catch up the idea easily

devout solstice
lucid peak
#

also question

#

did you get into modelling without having any previous experience or did you have any prior experience?

devout solstice
#

I made a cube

lucid peak
#

then?

devout solstice
#

I'm kidding I didn't even make a cube

#

I just did water physics one time

#

then completely left blender

#

then just made the hirochi tl45 model, didn't want to finish it, then the bike

lucid peak
#

neither with modeling nor with blender's UI?

devout solstice
#

basically

#

I learned blender 2.7 a bit, not much, but then 2.8 came and it was all new to me

#

so yes I had to relearn and learn all the basics

lucid peak
#

i see

lucid peak
devout solstice
#

took months to learn

#

so average

lucid peak
#

but like

#

how many months till you felt confident learning? one? two? more?

devout solstice
#

I literally just learned off the spot. anything I got stuck on, I searched the internet

devout solstice
#

5 lol

lucid peak
devout solstice
#

5

#

actually, if putting the hirochi tl45 into consideration, it would be around 6 months. that was the beginning of the learning progress

lucid peak
#

well

#

if you can do it in 6 months

#

then i bet i can too

#

hopefully, at least

devout solstice
#

I modelled like everyday

#

took some breaks, week long or so once or twice because I ran out of ideas

#

but eventually it got easier

lucid peak
#

alr then, thats great

#

if i dedicate myself i bet i can do the same hopefully

devout solstice
#

it'll help your drive

ocean flower

But why you're telling me this lmao

latent ivy

to this

#

don't need textures either

ocean flower
#

Quote the message so

#

Yeah ik that

latent ivy
#

so why does he need nodes and a jbeam?

ocean flower
#

I express wrong

latent ivy
#

oh

ocean flower
#

For have a funtional car you need at least all the structure work
(Nodes / Beams/ Trianges)

#

And ofc a mesh with textures

latent ivy
#

you technically don't need textures

#

to spawn

ocean flower
#

To spawn , no

latent ivy
#

but it does look awful without

ocean flower
#

To just have just physical object , don't need texture

#

But you'd have a car without textures

wise pumice
#

Modelers generally only make mods that they're really interested in... Unless you're planning on paying commission or you find a modeler who's interested in the exact same things you are, there's not much of a chance that your mod idea will come to fruition.

#

Or, you can start working on making a mod, yourself.

Nah, 309 is too small to be fitted with RWD unless it was a backyard modification made by a guy with a welder and some parts laying around

Oh, wow. The H-Series looks interesting... May I ask why it was abandoned?

Since I created the H-Series VMS mod the January 4 2021 and the D-Series arrow sign was put on the repo the January 11

Ah. Makes sense. Will we see arrow signs on the H-Series at some point, then?

Hi all. We're doing a movie as a school project, and for the last scene we needed a car crash. Because obviously we couldn't do that for real, we thought that it could be made with BeamNG.drive, combined with lots of editing. Does anyone know of a good texture map mod with snowy mountain roads and cliffsides to fall off of? I tried already looking up, but couldn't find anything fitting.

cloud pike
#

it's not too snowy but check the automation test map which is in the game, there's some icy/slightly snowy roads on it in the mountain

runic glade
#

Thanks, but I don't think it's snowy enough considering we filmed the rest of the movie IRL in the dead of winter in Finland :D

I'd like to shout out the person who made the Subaru BRZ mod. It was so fun doing a rally configuration for it on the brz sti concept chassis! I had a blast trying it on extreme testing on the rallycross track. Still squirrly because of rwd, but really fun once you upgrade all the stuff. What was a suitable track daily was made into a rally ready car and I really dig that level of customization capability in a mod.

Is it possible to bring in some sort of anything from a site called stuner?

smoky oriole
#

Stuner has usable models, but you would still need to hand make a Jbeam structure for the car to drive accurately (or at very least meshslap it on a similar vanilla car)
then there's the problem of licensing them, whoever made stuner might not like people using their models without permission.

mmmh yeah, blender is far from being the worst thing in Beamng modding, probably the easiest step

textures and jbeam are the real hell steps

I see i have many steps to take. I should make a to do list to keep it in order.

Tyres / rims aren't easy either

dusk dragon
#

hell no

#

the jbeam of this things

#

well in fact it's the main component of the realistic feeling of beamng

ocean flower
#

I'd start with easiest things like spoilers (as kemro says)

#

Or body work

iron siren
#

Spoilers are easy?

#

Don't they have downforce mechanics?

ocean flower
#

Nah

#

Well , i can't say tbh

dusk dragon
#

me it was lightbar and it's still lightbars xD

dusk dragon
#

can be just decorative

ocean flower
#

Yeah

#

Like the Miata mod (the guy who update it)

#

He made a spoiler without any nodes on it

iron siren
#

It will need nodes to attach and then to deform, right?

dusk dragon
#

still far better than this in any cases xD

dusk dragon
iron siren
#

What if I make a high poly tire for practice??

dusk dragon
#

spoiler look like this, and this one is the ingame one, so ultra complex, you can do far more simple jbeam stuff

dusk dragon
#

all the cars and props are low poly in Beamng

rustic wasp
dusk dragon
#

it's written in the mod page

rustic wasp
#

ok but can you just tell me here

#

Idk where to find it

iron siren
#

I wouldn't apply the tire to a car, I just want to hit it with things and see it deform. :3 also why are there beams holding the spoiler to the trunk that aren't where it is attatched?

rustic wasp
#

Idk

dusk dragon
rustic wasp
#

Ok

dusk dragon

@rustic wasp this one

in the vehicle section of the controls options

dusk dragon
rustic wasp
#

Ok

dusk dragon
rustic wasp
#

Yes

dusk dragon
iron siren
#

But don't forces on nodes act along the beam vector/axis?

rustic wasp
#

Ok

dusk dragon
#

^^

#

or modify it

dusk dragon
#

is a lot of dots

#

linked together with beams

#

and with triangles

#

all of this allow the game to understand the 3D model

#

and how to react with it

#

so yeah all the forces are applied on the node structure

rustic wasp
#

What should I press now

iron siren

Huh

What’s the name of the option

How can I do to change direction of the arrow then?

Maybe it is a super simplified beam structure . I guess I'm trying to see why those beams are there. There is no object connecting those beams.

here you can see the jbeam of a smaller spoiler

#

^^

iron siren
#

That one makes a lot more sense! Thank you!

iron siren
dusk dragon
#

but in fact

#

jbeam you really made them by testing a lot in game the behaviour it give to the part

iron siren
#

That will take longer. But it makes sense.

iron siren
#

Those help me understand that it needs to work in game.

iron siren
#

The only deformation models I've done have been in seimens NX so those are extremely high poly. Low poly and realistic is hard, but beam gets it done

dusk dragon
#

well in fact it's the beam that do all the job in the deformation system

iron siren
#

I want to play with it and take it apart. Lol

iron siren
#

They might need some higher strength values to be a bit more realistic. I'd say the poles are at least 1/2 as strong as the wooden ones?

wise pumice
#

I was going to ask, actually, is it possible to have an adjustable strength value?

#

At least for the base.

iron siren
#

Inside the jbeam

wise pumice
#

How about different bases, then? With different strength values.

dusk dragon
#

It's totally possible to change the strength value, but an update risk to create a shitty bug, so I can't really update it anymore

wise pumice
#

Ah, fair enough.

dusk dragon
#

this bug

iron siren
#

I'm really curious how updates mess up the mods. Like, I really would. Unless the update is modifying the node structure.

dusk dragon
#

but it's a really strange bug

wise pumice
#

That's why you always clear cache.

dusk dragon
#

never found the problem

#

and look like it can be repaired by moving a file in the mod

dusk dragon
wise pumice
#

It's 5 buttons and just some wait time. It really isn't all that hard...

iron siren
#

Is clearing the cache and deleting the cache folder the same thing?

rapid sage
#

idk, i would clear your cache.....

dusk dragon

it's hard

wise pumice

Hey guys. Why hasn’t anyone tried to recreate the map from nsfu2 in beam? I know it’s a huge huge undertaking but I’m sure some of the best map makers would be able to pull it off...

they've got helis

dusk dragon
#

they are all outdated as f or private

dusk dragon
viral shadow
#

Well duh.

#

I’m a game producer lol, I know how hard it is.

dusk dragon
#

so why are you asking questions like that if you have the response ? xD

viral shadow
#

But if we got a few people who loved the game we might be able to make a small area of the map first.

#

I mean I don’t

#

Somebody might have been crazy enough at some point

dusk dragon
#

need to much time/work/and the number of people that know how to make maps is kind of limited

#

so the chances are tiny

viral shadow
#

Yeah, that sucks. I think if a few people who were really good in the editor started it they’d be able to make it happen.

dusk dragon
#

well maybe

viral shadow
#

And just start with a tiiiny area

dusk dragon
#

but in fact there's more interesting things to make for a map

viral shadow
#

You’re probably not wrong

dusk dragon
#

especially since taking it from nsfu2 will probably cause some copyrights problem

viral shadow
#

Not for a game that dead

dusk dragon
#

you never know

viral shadow
#

True

dusk dragon
#

suck to work months on something and finally you have to post it on the forum and not the repo

viral shadow
#

Do people mod in groups?

#

I might try to get it started and hopefully find someone to help.

dusk dragon
#

I already heard of a team I think yeah

#

but it's really rare

#

people often work alone

#

or they make collab but that's all

#

hard to make a team to work a lot on projects that take months

#

easier for small projects

#

for example I fixed the lightbar of war daddy

viral shadow
#

Yeah, working on anything that takes that long is rough. I just feel like there’s demand for it but people don’t know yet.

dusk dragon
#

but people don’t know yet so a future demand ? xDDDDD

#

well after modding it's of course a game of offer and demand

viral shadow
#

Well I mean could you not see the YouTube headlines of “NSFU2 REMASTERED IN BEAM?!?!”

People would go wild if it were done properly

And many games, mods, videos, music all of it gets redistributed on sites every day. Welcome to the internet. Its not something you can stop and protesting it doesn't stop it either.
For anything I make (not for beamng, since I haven't) but for other games or mods, I don't care who or where its downloaded. All I know is I've made something so good people wanna take it and use it too. That makes me feel good about what I've done.

#

And incase you say then 'Its stolen and you don't get credit'

I can pull out the files, data, from my own drive whenever, to prove I made it and handled it first of anyone. So I don't care.

To add to that if someone wanted their mod to be deleted on here they can always tag a mod and ask them to remove it, it's not uncommon to get a DM to remove a leaked private mod

After the biggest problem is not the one who leak the mods (since we can't stop them), but the ones who download them.
