A few bugs in PreRace update

Here are a couple of things I've experienced with my game thus far:

2% Slow motion freezes and kills the game.

In the in-cab view of any car, I noticed that the audio tracking for the engine is a little weird. It flickers between left and right ear audio output.

And I'm not sure how you track the speed, but using the built in spedometer it shows speeds that are obviously incorrect. The best example of this is in the Gavrill Drift Missile van setup, it shows ~150 mph nearly as soon as you lay on the accelerator.

Sand on the beach-sand group type still pop tires.

You good folks are probably already aware of all of these, I'm just trying to provide a larger experience base haha

 

the audio tracks between left and right as a side effect of the node/beam structure flexing so your camera is genuinely moving left/right from the sound source (which I think is under the camera anyway)

 

That is not a bug, it's supposed to be like that. Real life cars measure speed by measuring how fast the wheels are spinning. If you accelerate with the drift missile the wheels will spin really fast, hence giving a high speed measure.

 

Is there an official list of known bugs for the pre race update anywhere? It would be nice to see what is known about to stop me and others asking about stuff unnecessarily.

 

in the Ibishu Pigeon I found it to say "Warning do not make a steering sharply at the high speed"

 

that is not a bug. Its an easter egg, alot of japanese goods used to have poor english translations.

 

That's a joke, Gabe is speaking engrish

I have noticed the Bolide 390GTR wheels wobble like crazy on acceleration and burnouts

 

That was an assumption but I just wanted to make sure..

 

Im not sure if its considered a bug or if theres an easy fix but on the maps like industrial, dry rock island, and small island the environment sound ( like at the menu) is veeerrry loud and i cant even hear the engine. This may or may not be a bug but its pretty annoying for me is there any way to change it in the audio settings??

 

Should really read any .bat file before executing it, a name of the file simply does not explain what it can do entirely.

Code:

@ECHO off

echo shaders
del /q /a:-R shaders\procedural\*.*

IF EXIST "tools\settings.xml" del /s tools\settings.xml
IF EXIST "banlist.cs" del /s banlist.cs

:: logs
echo logs
IF EXIST "beamng.log" del /s beamng.log
IF EXIST "torque3d.log" del /s torque3d.log
echo DONE!

Basically it deletes everything
so yeah it really does **cleanup**


I presume the updater calls this at some point to do its housework duties

 

The fact that slo-mo is crashing the game is really a deal breaker for me. Such a shame!

 

2% slow-mo, which would be moving at snail pace, making it pointless anyway, 3% -6% slow-mo is plenty of slowmo :/

 

The game crashes at 5 percent slo-mo every time I crash and use slo-mo at the same time.

 

strange, i shall go test this (i generally am fine with default, but i shall now go test the 5% part of things)

ok tested, and it must be a rare bug? or beamng really really likes me because i got to 2% just fine:

 

Hmm that's funky... Well, I can get the slo-mo down to 20 percent without crashing the game, so that's okay for now.

 

i can go to 12, 2 is hit and miss on whether it crashes instantly or not but it always crashes when I speed up from 2
