so lj can relez ibish carmel
Same
Perhaps i'm not ready for it lmao , but well , point is clear
Actually, Why dont the meshslap sites charge for some mods rn
Im not in favour of it, but nobodys stopping them because its their own site
Well , meshslap sites are stolen / leaked stuff too , if they monetize it , they would have legal problems i guess
they would anyways
because they did not get permission to reupload open source material
Yeah still dunno why they actually didn't xD
:P
and they do earn money
with ad revenue
@polar cedar wanna make bets in how many seconds the s15 would be on stmods or something
Bet the first site will be WorldOfLeaks
like im actually thinking less than a few minutes
Because then theyd get less ad revenue
they would still make money
It depends if theyre awakr or not
If theyre awake then yeah few minutes
I don't think so
Ah π
Beamng crash complilation luxury supercar carkiller #344535 (Halal dowload 720p no virus)
where you see a bolide aventador meshslap
Lmao
Bolide aventador with popups and stock bolide rims
That is the correct site for the crd monster truck as that is where they moved everything
Can someone make a late model diet car. I know it a lot but we have dirt tracks, bit no cars.
*Dirt
What about make it by youself
Yeah, if you can't find what you're looking for in the repo or in the beamng website you either have to learn how to do mods from scratch (very hard) or buy automation and design a car to export to beam (very simple but low quality compared to a dedicated mod)
ah yes, diet car
I'm too fucking lazy and don't know where to start.
Stfu single ass. You wonder why you can't pull girls and you sitting over here on the queue for 600lb life.
Wonderful
Thanks dude.
beginning to think this server needs an age verification
Why i even waste time on explaining the same shit to 11-yo kids
That one moment when the 36 in his mom's basement thinks he makes a point.
36? I sound that mature ? Well thanks :D
Your age is confirm
children usually think anything above 20y/o is an insult for some reason
Using a meme as argument is indeed a child-ish thing lmao
Wrong server
You were typing for five minutes to come out with this
I went away for 2 seconds what happened here
Just a random underage insulting me
yeah, I'm having a conversation with my coworker while watching this shit storm. lmao
I'm working on the bus and reading lol
how about them mods tho
Funny how you think I'm under age asswipe
discord tells the whole ass server you're typing even if you just have text in the message bar. wild shit
I don't know , this dude start to ask for mods and whenever i told him to learn he freak how insulting me
Im excited for when PBR comes out, I cant wait to be able to make maps and stuff that look good owo
Interesting stuff
hopefully the material system isnt as annoying to use as it currently is
maps that look good? i mean
where it just randomly forgets you created stuff
to be honest, I hope the whole map creating system on its own gets revitalized
same, its very weird and tedious
same with cars. I wish cars had a better creation tool
it kind of seems like nothing can compare to the level of detail put into an official beam map
because right now you basically just gotta use notepad
What is a good mod platform to build new cars?
beamng modding easier? that will never happen
don't ask me
right? currently you gotta figure out how to make a mod by using other mods
im not a mod creator
Well , not really
Maybe for complicated stuff like lua
nor would I be handing that info out to people who attack others in public servers for no reason
But all the small stuff i did was just taking as example the vanilla cars
there is no docs for really any lua
Or even some things written by me (with templates files)
Anybody on this server know a good modding platform to build cars?
No
define modding platform
the issue with using vanilla cars is that damn common folder
it makes things so confusing
He want an easy tool to make professional cars i bet
Indeed
I haven't worked with common folder that often thankfully
Bro I'm just trying to make something for myself. Just calm down. It's not that deep.
Since miramar / barstow / city bus has their own folder
tbh though, ive always wondered what it'd be like if they took the best parts of automation and brought them into beamng
but trying to figure out how to make a mod with vanilla vehicles makes stuff hard because of that common folder
like yoinking wheels and stuff
You literally insult me 3 minutes ago like wtf
like being able to modify a car's engine from square one right in beamng
I'm so confused what happened
also all the meshes overlapping and stuff, 100% confusing for the newbie modder
indeed
almost like having docs is important for game modding
considering GTA 5, a game with no official tools, has better modding docs
Dixie is being a dumbass
Like the wendover which has a separated interior and exterior parts
hey I tried to help ya but if you wanna be rude
Just ignore him lmao
I ain't tryna be rude to you dude. It's the other guy.
What the heck i did you lol
I read over the chat. Outlaw, you came aggressive at him first. Dax was just stating a point every modder will give when someone asks someone else to make mods.
^
^ x2
fax
like I said, define what you are looking for and maybe you would get some help on where to start instead of being rude at people for telling you to make it π
It's just the reality of it. We don't make mods for the satisfaction of other people. We definitely will not waste a couple months of our lives just to make someone happy.
At this point i should stop answering those type of messages
I was asking for it and I could pay. Y'all so sensitive.
guess how much you're gonna pay for a handmade beam mod tho ποΈ π ποΈ
"Sensitive"
I'm not being sensitive, I'm just giving out a statement all modders would state back to you.
-tell him to learn modding
-insult me on 35 languages
Sorry to ping, but whatβs PBR?
Physically based rendering (PBR) is a computer graphics approach that seeks to render images in a way that models the flow of light in the real world. Many PBR pipelines aim to achieve photorealism. Feasible and quick approximations of the bidirectional reflectance distribution function and rendering equation are of mathematical importance in ...
it's coming to beam?
Apparently
oh that lag we're going to face
So it's just a simpler version of all our normal, color and spec maps?
its a completely different way of handling light transport basically
Have y'all had trouble with the General Lee mod?
spec gloss is an aproximation, but you can have stuff like a light bouncing out more energy then it gets and metals looking like plastics
So it'll affect the entire world?
or just the vehicle
ah understandable
so no longer 3 layers?
ah yes I was thinking about the car paint
and based on the fact that its clearcoat dual normal
means glossy carbon fiber type stuff may be do-able
Off topic, but what's wrong with the General Lee mod?
why you asking me lol
why would I know
good, a step into the better graphics lol
that'll look so much better than the existing one
Lucas will be able to implement that to his Genesis
You know mods but ok.
I posted this last time the car paint was brought up but it still feels like a good comparison so
beamng now
beamng + some carpaint
Wait hold up, are those both in beam though
I know how to make mods and stuff, but I dont usually run them myself
yes, one is default and one is a custom shader I made
Amazing
so it likely looks worse then it would actually
yeah if it's the second one that's coming to beam, I can't wait
but maybe it'll need to be toned down a bit, it's too, detailed for beam?
I don't know how to explain it lmao
there are lines talking about clearcoat in the hlsl files so it should be
it looks too clean to be in beam
well this was my implimentation
that was a literal hack
so likely the official one would be 10x better
dyk an approx date it'll be released?
yep, but it's worth it
Do you think modding itself will turn easier with more updates?
For me , i don't think so
I dont think so either, maybe there will be better docs but
the more arguments there are, the more flexible your vehicle will be
flexible as in features
yeah
I do wish setting up nodes/beams/coltris was easier though
and exporting meshes for levels
Same honestly
One of the mods i'm about to finish well , i'm stuck at the nb
I dont think there is one app that allows you to work with all of it
wdym?
there was that blender plugin but that just dumped the node/beams
NBEditor helps with beams
Yeah but is outdated and buggy asf
there is no all in one tool for creating the nodes and the beams and the part groups and stuff like that
nbe helps with visualization, that's all I use it for
there is no 'do all the .jbeam work' tool
Yeah , that would be awesome
maybe once the game reaches beta there will be one
Could be
at this rate, we'll prolly all be dead by beta
youngin
meanwhile in other countries, they can inhale vodka through their eye sockets by 17
what the hell happened here
that was 2 hours ago my guy, don't worry about it
i made a skin but it doesnt show in the parts menu what do i do?
Not showing in parts menu is a jbeam/folder issue, AFAIK
Ohh yes, been waiting for this
same!
I cant wait till I can make some dope looking assets
having beamng vehicles that dont look just solid clean plastic
me being able to texture stuff correctly is gunna be hot
Yeah
throw a car in mari for a skin π
im more interested in the entire game becoming pbr though
being able to make pbr environments owo
I can hear my computer screaming
PBR is not much more intense then current spec gloss
well thats good
a lot of the stuff that is usually brought in with it by other games is
like better reflections or proper AO or better shadows or dynamic GI, etc
but I have not seen anything about those
so no clue if they are coming or not, I doubt it
How much different and better would pbr maps look?
Oh well then i hope its not just vehicles
damn, the beamng forums really do be the epitome of having something you wanna do in your mind as a mod, but running out of motivation to do it
how so?
i only say that because I went down a little trip through memory lane and looked through the history of the mods section, all the threads left in WIP or cancelled
ah yee
kind of reminds me of the time when I didn't realize how long it took to make a mod
i wanted to make some cars from the old chrysler LX platform, just because nobody had done it yet. lol
so like the 2005-2010 chrysler 300, dodge charger and dodge magnum
Its hard with how little amount of people properly know how to make cars and jbeam
then maybe some modders need to be a bit nicer and more open π
not talkin anyone in specific
just somethings that have happened in the pat
tru
it's something I'd like to learn one day, but baby steps. I'm not trying to make a literal 1:1 creation of the quality level that the official cars have
but I also have different expectations.. I don't really give a damn about detail in collisions as much as I do the driving experience
which is the whole reason I came back to beamng, when cars started feeling more like... cars
and less like driving on ice lol
Lol
I like both
that's fair. for me, it's the one game that scratches that sim driving, sim racing itch that other games don't for me
so I tend to care about things like cockpit/interior quality and driving experience the most
which i guess is why i don't like automation cars cough cough
also automation cars crash like a rock
feels like running an rc car into the wall vs a real car
Agreed
and then you got the lack of docs
they used to have proper LUA docs
like every lua func
but poof gone
so now you gotta learn obscure lua funcs from other mods
until those mods become paid and obfuscated to hell like seus ptgi
also I take a LOT of screenshots, so that pbr thing is definitely ποΈ from me
yee im getting a good example of the difference between pbr and spec/gloss
Same
anything that'll make the game look more eye-candy is pretty good in my book
considering on its own, on a 1440p ultrawide the game kinda looks a little derpy
how do i access engine sounds?
Isnt the sounds folder password locked
the audio.zip is locked and the fmod bank is encrypted iirc
is there any way i could access it?
well I know the audio.zip is locked because I know the password but no clue on the fmod bank
if it's encrypted, i would assume the answer is probably a strooooong no
hmm
why is it passcode locked?
licensing likely
ight i posted a thread in the mods forum lets see if i can get any clue
Hey I've got a qustion. Why do people keep mods private? Does it cost money to upload them? Is it because they don't want hate or something?
because the community can be quite toxic at times so people dont want to deal with it
people leaking stuff and whatnot
there are people who keep mods private in order to get money out of them, but that's usually a rare situation
Or theyre meshslaps that they just like to give to big youtubers
i was gonna say, that too
Or they get banned and actually cant post the mod lol
just out of curiosity I looked around to see if anybody did make any of the original chrysler LX platform cars... people sure did, they're just all private meshslaps on youtube with a shitload of algorithm-gaming tags on it in order to farm youtube revenue
Or they end up not finishing it becaus they think its bad like ive done a lot
if people wanted to get good money out of them just put it on patreon and make sure some feature is broken/incomplete with every update. Then people have to stay subbed 10 a month to get updates π
shhhh you're giving them ideas lmao
the 7 page paid mods thread already gave them it
because everyone wants another PTGI where all the code is obfuscated and the mod is updated once a month slowly and if you want to have updates you have to shell out 10 bucks a month every month
like
remember when you could just use a cdae
and everyone only used cdae instantly
because then no one could open the model in blender
I'm a patron for a modding tool for a completely different game and I usually just donate once, download it and then come back in like a year when the new features are worth it
patreon where you get in dev stuff only works if stuff leaves dev at a logical time
but again, everyone wants to be ptgi
so you want to give the modders, who dont want you to even be able to mod their mods, the ability to milk money from people
(not you specifically but the general you)
i don't even know the context for that because idk what ptgi is
seus ptgi
a shader for minecraft
that has been behind a pateron paywall for
mmmmmmmm
2-3 years now
and its obfuscated to hell and back
oh. huh
i have that on my copy of minecraft, but I don't recall ever paying for it... matter of fact, my friend just gave it to me and said "here, you'll want this"
oopsie
welcome to 'mod piracy'
i think that might be the first time I've ever unknowingly pirated something lmao
my friend never informed us that it was a paid thing or anything like that, we just assumed it was freeware
you would because your average mod basically is
but the tides are shifting and now every mod is on pateron
yeah exactly, nothing gave me a hunch that it was paid
I literally saw the other day a simple minecraft plugin for 15 bucks patreon
π
you can give other patreon incentives, but the mod itself shouldnt be one dang it
i mean I get it, but I think you'd probably be a more positively looked at member of the community if you simply didn't paywall your entire creation
kind of like the Assetto corsa mod manager
you can use it for basic stuff but you get access to things like direct mod installation for paying for it, which I think makes sense
yeah stuff like that is ok
or like
you get in between update versions
or you get updates 2 weeks early
stuff like that
patreon should be a bonus not a store
also random off topic, god I hope that japan.dae leak becomes an actual map
agreed
it's funny how many racing and driving games avoid japan as a setting specifically
i haven't tried it or seen it
even though its got amazing mountain roads for touge or just cruising
yeah
ooo what's happening here
i mean, there's that one suburban map... but it's woefully unfinished
I'm not a huge fan of it because it's pretty much just a bunch of houses with like a single gas station and a school building
i mean yeah it's quite bare, but there's not much else like it
although I'm curious to see if people start using the new walk mode to their advantage in map making in the future
wcusa has that little town area which i like quite a bit too
I have been tempted to just yoink some open streetmap data + terrain party data and make a proper suburban area
things like adding building interiors for, y'know... garages, showrooms, etc
mainly just waiting for pbr
i want to aswell but maps really aren't my thing yet
i'd want to make a slightly more accurate east coast usa that is more like where I live
because believe it or not, we don't all live in tiny villages in the middle of giant forests lol
east coast is in maine iirc
yet it has a washington dc num
i used to live in maine, but it still wasn't totally like that
east coast usa feels like it's made of the most desolate parts of maine
areas like Eliot where the population is 600 max
yeah I feel like it is lmao
because idk about you
but when I think east coast
I dont think maine
your average person doesnt is what I mean lol
so it was kinda an odd choice
like for west coast its clearly socal
well if they ever choose to do an east coast city, they ought to do something more widely recognized like boston
correct me if im wrong but im pretty sure this is not how turbos work
oh and also going way back to that pbr chat... if pbr does come out for environments then I can use my photogrammetry assets π
i kind of wonder what an 01-05 pessima would look like...
Uhh wtf
Who made that
oh damn, there is actually one. interesting
That's the engine used in the civetta bolide corsa mod
Or whatever you want to call it
Corse
i agree with your proper suburban map idea
hey, does anyone know the link for the nissan silvia because i keep seeing it but i cant find it
lj's silvia?
currently rn the most well known silvia mod is the ibishu 250bx, which is wip
but i do like the slivia which was showcased with Lj's evo
thats his silvia
its wip
this is the closest you can get rn, https://www.beamng.com/resources/ibishu-250bx-front-clip.9197/ its a front end for the 200bx
alright tnx
np
cause i dont want it on the repo anymore
Yeah, I... realised. My bad.
Dont think so
i need help with opening a trsiler to put a car on
is there a pickup suspension jbeam anymore?
Are there any good reshade mods? ping me if you answer.
any mods that are similar to endurance racing GTE cars?
Looking for drifting/jdm cars. I already have the JBX and Prasu and am looking for more quality cars to slide around in.
does anyone have a good frount end loader mod?
Is there any la Ferrari mod


does anyone have a good shaders mod?
man tgs, semi euro truck
Kamaz too
why did my bmw bcom like dis?i just put a texture mod lol
Lmao wot
Sorry but can anyone tell me why I can search up mods? Everytime I try to say something in the search bar it just goes away and stays at the first repository page π.
because you can't just speak into your mic to search mods ingame... the game isn't google
try typing
f
I was in the creators discord server right until he deleted it 5 minutes ago
F
like it's been said many times before
people are flaky like that when the community itself can be that toxic
every community has its dose of modding toxicit
tbf it feels like it's worse with this game imo, i just can't pinpoint what it is
dunno if it's jealousy, the fact that the game attracts kids, or if it's just the whole forums aspect of it
I have the mod will i not be able to use it anymore?
unless the modder comes to your house and hijacks your pc to uninstall it, you would still be able to use it
ok
the last update is coming soon
does anyone know of a wangan type map and a tire wear mod
what is this
shoot
FFFF
Hey, I got one question, is there a UV File for the Container?
Iβm I do type π
This is the correct answer.
Again? Jeez.
this has happened so many times, im not just calling him out but many other modders have quit and come back over and over again
give it a week or longer and they'll be back
My point, exactly.
Does anyone know where the "Tiny Frame" for the H-Series is from?, whenever i try to use it I tank up to 100%RAM and Disk usage, If anyone knows where its from please let me know
i need a frount end loader and bull doazer
How do you make mods
is there a way to make a mod that make headlights invincible?
I bet but idk how
ok thx
yes, its located in the common folder
Is there a utility bed mod for the d series or h series?
Are there any Tsukuba Circut mods? I've been dying to slide around that circut in beam for a while now.
we need this for the t seriesπ
i think thats a thing already...
normally you dont just slap a texture on like that
Lucky me I got it in time
is there anyone who can help me make vehicle headlights not break? i think it would be cool
not sure if this counts as a mod but i'm trying the natural playgrounds map rn
10/10 would reccomend
because i asked in the wrong channel ill try here
does anyone know where i can get a good mk5 mod?
idk
I think that was the thread where everyone was looking for that one ETK mod I found it itβs on the forums
https://www.beamng.com/threads/2007-2013-etk-300-series.79101/
I have been trying to play the post apocalyptic east coast USA and it wonβt ever fully load
I got the pc specs it just never fully loads
Are you sure the map isn't broken or outdated?
Yeah itβs a newer map
maybe that's a sign the community is fucked
Its been like this for years so its not really that much of a sign lol
good job you lot for not giving a shit and letting it be like this then
i would say more but im not tryna get in trouble, in short, it's not everyone's fault, get that in your mind
thanks for giving the long version of you lot just dont give a crap
ok
lmao
after the kids, russian modders, leakers and beggars joined the community people stopped giving a shit
well, this has been lovely, but im ending the convo there
nice way to try and divert
i like how you guys just accept this endless cycle of modders coming and going due to the community
that isn't really a good look
k
i dont see why im really even mentioning this, the endless cycle is just status quo now
then dont even mention it
k
..
i have been looking for one forever i cant find oneπ©but if it is where did you find it
no the T series already has a dump truck in the original game...
is there an updated version of this? https://wiki.beamng.com/Starting_a_new_map_project so many file names and things have changed/are missing
I blundered my way though this and probs made mistakes
new question, with the old editor being made obsolete, where would I import a heightmap in the new map editor?
Anyone know if there are mods with the cars from the flatout games
no
am I invisible?
no
ah I've just asked a few questions over the last week, and never see a response
It's because creating maps isn't a very well known section in the community, so finding help will be difficult unfortunately
other areas too
idk if thats the right place to ask but has anyone clue as to where can i find bmw car mods? not the crappy ones obviously
other than crappy ones unfortunately there isn't any good ones at the moment
Is there a decent mustang mod in game? I have one but itβs not perfect lol
and im wondering why
i mean
what's so hard about the jbeams and all that?
i've never modded in beamng but when i was making trucks and other sorts of stuff in spintires it wasn't really hard
Theres 2 in agents modpacks on YouTube, the quality might not be the best but its the only BMW mods you'll get that aren't on crappy websites
making a jbeam is literally opening a text editor and putting points and beams in 3d space. Its basically trail and error over and over and over to get the nodes in the right place then you still gotta connect them to each other in beams and then tri and then set up how stiff they are or what material they are, etc
The jbeam is the whole physics, and since BeamNG uses its own physics engine, you have to know how it wall works
On top of that, you have to design it physically correct, but also design it in a way where the density of the structure isn't too little, or too much
There are Nodes, which are essentially ball bearings, and Beams, which connect these
Since a node is like a ball bearing, it can move freely in any direction, anything attached can rotate freely
You have to constrain nodes from all 3 directions (XYZ) for them to actually stick in place
(Yellow: wheel hub, Blue: double wishbones, Red: shock/spring)
So even a basic double wishbone suspension is ~10 nodes, at least 15 beams (too lazy to properly count)
then you get the wheel attached, you have to figure out steering components, make it strong enough to hold the wheel in any situation
make it so it doesn't go weird in extreme crashes, etc
Suspensions alone take a good deal of work
Then you get to the car
You could make a basic fender jbeam like I did in orange
but that'll just flop around on it's own
since there's no constraints on the X axis
So you gotta hook that all up properly, make sure it deforms properly, attach it to the vehicle, etc
Even once you have things physically setup, there's still a ton of trial and error in the tweaking phase
@latent ivy ^
tl;dr is, there's a bunch of knowledge required of BeamNG, you have to know how vehicles physically work, and it's a lot of time and effort
Also why meshslaps suck, they usually don't account for proper suspension types, handling, and a vehicles physical properties.
hello people someone have a dummy mod like the mod adds a driver and passengers? if yes send the link to me download
Theres some meshslaps which arent like that, but majority are like what you described
does someone have a Daytona type map
i wonder if there's a diesel piccolina π€
please tell me you are joking
cause yes
the entire ui poofs sometimes when editing terrain
sometimes it just doesnt apply your paint material
it also did a CTD right after I stopped recording
now I cant even change texture scale
plus if I save and leave the level then go into any other, CTD
how do you make an editor this bad
I cant even do anything for 2-3 min when I first load the editor, because my fps goes to 3 and gpu usage to 100 for 0 reason
because 2-3 min later, 100fps and 20% gpu usage
just by sitting there
also the fact you cant adjust terrain resolution, why. like seriously
What programs do people use to make a car mods/edits?
how is that related to beamng modding? lmao
yes
it's the phroge
does anyone have the link to the rx7?
no
somewone have a mod of passengers for vanilla cars if yes send to me the link
sorry but i'm saying like a mod you can put the 5 people in a car than have a support to 5 people understand??
Not new to installing mods to games just beamNG i can't find the "READ ME" text anywhere and I followed the steps on the Video but my charger didn't show in the car list in game
Just drop the file into the mods folder inside of 0.22
No need to extract
Also, beware of mods downloaded from sites other than the official beam.ng website
It's rare but people have caught viruses in the past from other websites
Did you extract the zip?
shxt i didn't read what you said lol
yes
so are we gonna ingore that the 2 monitors took the screenshot?
Yeah lol
What mod is the Miata mod
an awful one
No whats the name of it
Miata is Miata
yes
anyone know any good BMW car mods?
I did not make the model but hopefully Iβm going to try to get it atleast into beam today
anyone know of a full independent suspension mod for the prerunner?
anybody elseβs gooseneck hitch just dissapear?
from the classic D15 mod
with the gooseneck trailers
Anybody know some good Automation Sedan mods?
anybody know some small pickup truck mods
like this?
try this https://www.beamng.com/threads/2015-2020-dodge-charger.78771/ the download link is at the bottom
oh damn... that mod has started popping up on third party sites too huh
lmao. i love how the description was copied right from the thread
it got its last update
there are blueprints
right next to the download thingy
so yeah lets hope in the future someone fixes this up
or is that skin related?
idk
but anyway it got its last update
Does anyone know of an rx7 mod with an FC? I have really looked pretty long, but haven't seen much in the realm of.... good
there doesnt seem to be a good rx7 fc mod
there is a fd on the forums
speaking of, is the FD still broken?
i recall it causing crashes when you tried to spawn about half of the configs
last time I used it 0.22 it still worked
but it only spawns with steelies
ill have to try it again. usually when a mod causes a CTD ill end up disabling it until a fix is released for it, so i haven't tried it since it crashed on me
update the mod if you subscribed to it in the game
personally i had to delete it and redownload/install manually but maybe it just hadnt updated on in game repo yet
mine was fine
downloaded the new one, removed the old one, put the new one in and boom its working fine and separated
ok
thanks
Do you think modders should have the possibility to make paid mods ?
I think the same
Modding BeamNG is harder and harder after every update
maybe in 2016 it was not needed since making mods was easy, but in 2021 to make a small thing you need already 1 week of work
Look, I'll put it this way; if I can get your mods for $2 a month, I'd do it.
if i were able to support a modder that i really like for a monthly fee on a platform that wouldn't inconvenience me in the long run, i'd do it
And for example buying the mods of a modder for like 1/2/3$ ?
bro some should be like 1k
that would work too, but it would depend on the content of course
yeah obviously they'd be expensive, but you'd offset the cost by offering it to anyone... not just a single buyer that's going to use it in an overly monetized car crash video and then have it never see the light of day again
someone make a fully working helicarrier and I'll pay them a grand
i simply can't justify paying that much for any mod... but for me, the kind of mod i'd pay that much for would be a car that'd probably be difficult to make because there's not much documentation on it
at least in terms of 3d models
for me little mods (car parts, skins,...) can cost like between 0.50/4β¬ and more for vehicles/maps
yeah, i wouldn't exactly call my desired mods little. lol
i'd probably have a better chance in seeing them ingame by learning beamng modding, but i'm kind of afraid of suffering burnout from beamng as a result
well if you want to make really huge things
the worst
is the time it takes to make just one mod
exactly
like, 6 months to make a car, I can't do that, I don't have the motivation to make just one thing in 6 months
like for example, i'm interested in making some cars that aren't exactly seen in games frequently at all... particularly cars from around the 2000s that i'm nostalgic for, having grown up in an area where people loved their cars
Yeah I see, after maybe making some good meshslap can be efficient too
I don't have anything against meshslap as soon as they're well made
it'd have to be more than that, because i'm looking to have a fully working cockpit area
link me one well made meshalp
working gauge clusters, working wheel at the bare minimum, interior illumination upon turning on the headlights, things like that
those are things i'd have to learn lol
No ? I am not your servant.
that was not the point?
oh yeah you really want to make some complex things
No ?
which meshlaps are "well made"
your standards are probably very low, i presume then
The C6 Corvette is almost well made.
Why are you so aggressive, gosh
he literally said a meshslap is fine as long as it's well made, he didn't imply there's a bunch of them...
hell, he didn't even say any of them exist yet lol
why are you feeling attacked so fast lol
but yeah, if you're talking about the c6 corvette from agents mod pack, i'd agree
Yeah. A meshslap is the fact to use an existing jbeam with a new 3D model of body. If you move all the nodes at the right place and that it look good, it's a good meshslap
I think I found it on RRC
i don't care about crashing as much as i do driving, so i enjoy it
and you won't show us a good example, because that would make you a servant? lol
Because you're saying that I have very low standards, I'm just talking of meshslap, not of your mother.
Revolution Racecraft.
ah, okay, right
i know why it sounded familiar. i forgot about that audi s3/rs3 meshslap as well lol
I downloaded it, forgot about it, it accidentally popped up in my traffic and genuinely scared me because at the time I had no recollection of installing it.
yeah, it's easy to forget about when it's so much of a meshslap that it's buried in the vivace spawnmenu lol
It was a meshslap of another mod already, wasn't it? I think you had to have the FCV sedan installed for it to work :P
that would make sense
but yeah, maybe i will try with something as simple as modifying an existing jbeam onto my model and see how i like it. lol
i've got nothing to do rn but go to work, so i might as well try to learn something
Can someone help me? (Send pm or ping) I want to get started on making custom maps, I already have tons of experience with ets2 and ATS, for making map mods, models and such. So you can explain it as complex and direct if you want.
Only need a kickstart in the butt to get moving. But can't figure out how everything is set up correctly. With skyboxes and all, or is there some kind of template available?
oh, okay, now I understand the problem and why do meshslaps exist lol
thanks for the detailed explanation, appreciate it a lot
this isn't the place for that, go find the beammp discord
Anybody know some good sedan mods?
Cheerier emmouse
UrbanLORE pack has some cool sedans in it too
Cherrier Emousse is top mod. Lack of parts, but top.
send me your best truck mods
no
yes
no
What does "top mod" mean to you
NO
Are there any good Go-Kart mods?
HI, How to change the material of the cube? some help please
No idea yet, I know for decals and roads. But check the editor documentation. Click on the help tab in there and you see it.
It's also better to ask this stuff somewhere else I noticed, no one helps with the editor here, and lot of YouTube tutorials are outdated
hello
Hi, what is the proper way to make skins for vannila cars?
Swap it on Blender
Import the car you want the bumper of and delete everything except the bumper
import the car you want to add the bumper to , place it on the same place and rename
Your questions are more than welcome!
I tested the tutorial on June 2020 and it still works.

thanks
was literally easy as search this on Youtube
i searched this but it was unusefull
You search wrongly then
I don't think so , you can learn blender basic tho (For move objects and etc)
This channel is pretty cool to learn
Yes
But still should learn the basics , otherwise , whenever you import the objects you will not know what to do :P
hey, can someone help me to find mod in a video?
It what is updated to mod De beanmgdribe
wdym (what do you mean)?
They've been spewing nonsense through the channels... not sure what's going on there.
does anyone know where I can find the blender model for the nomi gtrx wing? I want to adapt it for a race car mod im working on
Check on repo
Could be on sunburst or common folder
ould someone explain how I would take a blender model and turn it into a mod car? I know where to find the engine and mechanical pieces from other cars, but what would I do in terms of jbeam?
if anyone has any priv mods that are ok to send send them to me and ill send some bakc
back
does anyone know of a r8 mod thats not 3rd party?
no i dont
There is also this...https://www.beamng.com/resources/skin-helper.15037/
This one is outdated
CONVERTIBLE WENTWARD???
a WHAT
Damn we really showing off like that, huh?
seem usefull, thaks!
@latent ivy do you remember when that skoda mod worked?
then it is outdated and the publisher has to fix it
the AN 12 mod should work though i think there is a fix on the forums
let me try to find it
delete the AN 12 mod you have now
then install this one https://www.beamng.com/threads/0-21-antonov-an-12b-fixed-lua-error.53467/page-22#post-1273484
the file called
"an12works_with_021.zip" it should work
what do you mean?
you place the .zip into the mods folder as it is
dont extract it
you dont have to extract files
not every mod needs the same amount of files
just put the zip in the mod folder and start the game
devs made this super simple tbh
to mods
i just tested it now btw it works fine
you should, open the launcher and press manage user folder
then open in explorer
there should be mods folder
well all of the official mods from beamng site are placed into here, it's much easier and also has less chance of breaking your game later
when you press "open in explorer" it should look like this
then just place the .zip into mods
dont extract
that's good
yeah, at least 99% of mods from beamng site are made to be installed nice and easy like this
what?
yeah, its not the best quality stuff there and likely doesn't follow the easy install method
and has a high chance to give you a virus
for the love of god please dont download from there
only download from https://www.beamng.com/resources/
you have a high chance of getting a virus
and the mods themselves are quite bad
just because you have an antivirus doesnt mean you are invincible
just be cautious
around 3rd party sites
whatever, just be very cautious
that's probably something else or just a one time thing
No, mods there are pretty bad or just avalaible on the official website
@devout solstice is your bike mod released?
Thanks
is there anyone that makes realistic cars in beamng?
i've seen some youtubers using them but i can't find any
and automation doesn't feel right
you mean like the ones on the repo?
Most real life cars you see in the videos are private
dang
jfc that's jarring, that pfp of triangular Jerry is my email pfp
and there are still real cars on the forums... just not allowed on the repo because of copyright reasons
are they safe to download?
they are on the forums why they wouldn't be
ok
anyone have a good reshade preset
i mean
i have mine on the forum
and theres a few more
here's a tricky one.... with automation rear suspension, what dictates its 0, 0, 0 coordinates?
Ask it on there ok?
odd, seems superfluous to separate the 2, but okay
there is the cliffs map
https://www.beamng.com/threads/belaz-re-uploaded-v2.78316/ you mean this?
THIS IS NOT MY CREATION!
The original creation was made by:
natiq kamal
Creator - https://www.beamng.com/members/natiq-kamal.13126/
For the basics, I...
thats the fixed one
it works fine for me
hey i cant install the bmw e30 M3 v1.0, can anyone help me ?
okay, where exactly are you downloading from
uhm from beamngdrive,com
Link for it
can i send links here ?
Yes
here
yeah but for this car theres is no other good one
Then mod is outdated and broken
what is a good map?
what ttype are you looking for
i wish someone would do thesse lights for the mustang in beamng
weird ugly ford gt lights
Hi! im new in this ds. What is the best way to get good mods?
ok thanks!
The easiest would be to just check the in game repository
That is cursed
Does anyone have like a mod were there is real cars if its multiple could you dm them to me pls and thank you
also my personal preference is cars that are jdm or like cars you have to build\
in my opinion best page with mods is world of mods
no
www.beamng.com/resources/ is the best place for mods
and you have a high chance of getting a virus on there
yeah
i don't know this
neilogical made a vid on it

that's not a virus
u are wrong
he made video about bootleg
not virus mods
fun fact: because of how beamng lua works you could easily get a virus that your av wouldnt detect until it is already running. Happy modding π
yeah
so that's why always i close beamng game crashes
wat
game crashes
after close
ah, I remember having that some time ago. its weird lmao, seemed to be related to CEF not being told to close so it yelled at me
before 0.20 update i got in beamng 150 working mods
but i must uninstall game cuz it crashed
And i download from world of mods cuz i like real cars mods
world of mods tends to be low quality and risky, but no one can stop you
no low quality
world of mods is either meshslaps or stolen from the forums without credit
i download only good mods
i dislike bootlegs
and you can't find on this page not bootleg dodge challenger mod
:/
yeah because no one has really made one up to date on the forums afaik
since any good quality mod on world of mods is stolen
i know
world of mods stole mods from other pages
if you know why are you supporting that
using the site is supporting it
you are even suggesting it
ok
how can i download good graphics mod
headache
:(
imma just pray i haven't downloaded some shit lol
afaik there is nothing in the wild yet
wdym
there is no actual known virus that us using lua and beamng, its a possibility but nothing has ever been found so far
so dont let it scare you, download from the repo and you should be fine
beamng is well sandboxed with its lua, I know I have been throwing my head against it
there mightve been a possibility where i downloaded some cars from worldofmods just to see the quality of mods there
guess imma die
even then you are still probably good
this is def not something some kiddie can break outta
i guess so, yeah, but the possibility still exists nonetheless
indeed
I would be more wary about where you wouldnt expect it if you wanted to be worried
ex: mp
Anyone have a good rally map?
do you want rally or rally cross?
if you wanna find rally maps, just go to the catigory "Terrain" and search rally.
(same with rally cross)
Hi
Heres a gif of what ive done today
o
Where's the gas tank.....?
and it's a FWD H series....?
the petrol tank is one of them new fangled wireless ones
and it 4WD but with only front axle
can someone recommend me some good maps mods
hey , how is the mod going?
uh what mod
@lapis lance
Sorry if I interrupt but I've got a question about your Volvo
How will you solve Volvo 4WD?
Every 4WD car in game can detach front axle while rear is always
While Volvo got detachable Rear axle
Idk if there is something like in Sportage where after reaching 40km/h rear axle disconnects
I'm quite surprised the 2014 interior of the challenger fits pretty well with 2015+ challenger
Why wouldn't it? The jump from 14-15 was essentially just a facelift.
yo
yo, what mod you talking about wanting to make
a vehicle
well then if its a custom vehicle you will probably need a few years of 3d experience to make the model in a tool like blender or maya, then something to texture like substance or photoshop, then notepad++ to make the jbeam stuff
if its from a premade model then just notepad++ and tools like blender or maya
the wiki has stuff about creating the jbeam items you need and how to do it
shiiiii
Disappointed, not a wiki about Portal
any derbys goiong on?
why my mods is like 1 yettabyte
Hey, I've got a question: What is the best way of starting to do mods? Skins, Automation, sth like engine swaps and parts or sth else? Because every time I see all the cool stuff on the forum and in #714429950765301791 I think that it is a shame I haven't tried it myself.
Start with small stuff as you said , skins , maybe engines swaps
Props are a good idea to learn modelling too , since don't need to be extra-complicated or have a heavy jbeam
Alright, ty :D
Yw
can someone help me please?
oh sweet jesus
I wanted to make a meme mod and slap a broken model on a automation car
The first thing i hear when i accelerate:
NEVER GONNA GIVE YOU UP
forgot that i edit the engine sound lmao
hey, why are so many mods messed up ? i dont get it, dont matter were i donwload them (beamng.com/Worldofmods.com)
can someone help me fix my utah map cause when i installed the utah extra map it took over the normal utah map and is still like that even after i uninstalled the utah extra map
wom is bad
yeah i kinda know this but where can i download mods then ?
but the most are not what i want :/
- Don't download mods on wom, they could contain a virus
- Some of the mods on the forum are messed up because they are outdated or unsupported. You identify them with the grey box "unsupported"/ red box "outdated" over them in the thread
ok thanks
fans
