Update Speculation thread

Aw man no AI school bus

Retired police Bastion in traffic would be sweet. I see post 2015 retired state patrol Chargers so it wouldn’t be unrealistic

 

Some guy on discord posted:
''Yknow, its kinda weird that the only time the gavril motors sounds different, its on the marshal, and Im not sure if this is a sound update, or a major error
I assume its a major error, because the sounds is "2019 5l v8" or smthing like that
And there is no 5l v8, and that is also the wrong year''

 

We could get the short frame school bus.

 

What do you think about the tire wear thing BeamNG is courendly working on

 

We already got some updates to the tires in beam this update, so ya.

 

what did the devs do to the tires? i didnt notice anything different.

 

What i ment was if you like it when the tires pop when you wheelspin to long or that,when you‘re good at drifting, during a race or a drift race you Need to change the tires
--- Post updated ---

In the last update (0.37) the tires don‘t pop instantly when you drive over a spikestrip.

 

They realistically pop and lose air over time. Also theres some new code related to thermals.

 

Intresting, that somthing like this is already in the code

 

i dunno i hope not, the v8 in the marshal sounds heavenly especially at high revs. i hope they don't change it

 

I second this. Love it.

 

That references the IRL source vehicle, a Mustang with the Coyote.

 

Something interesting is that if you go the parts selector for a simplified traffic vehicle, you can switch to all of the current ones, but also a simplified ambulance. It never spawns for anyone though, so...

 

Yeah that's what I thought it might be from

 

It only spawns as a parked vehicle, never drives.

 

Light materials from traffic vehicles and normal configs are different for all cars. Simplified versions use a lower quality compressed and baked texture for improved performance, so that's why many vehicles get new lights on their traffic versions before receiving their update.

 

Ummm…. Not what I said lol. They dont get new materials, they are just converted to pbr for the traffic. The normal Wendover has new light textures as of 0.37, but the traffic version hasn’t gotten the new textures, suggesting they may add new content to the traffic and they are just waiting till then to add the new textures.

 

Okay I think you are misunderstanding what I am saying. The traffic light texture wasn't updated with the actual car, unlike every other vehicle that had updated lights and was included with traffic.

 

Sorry about that, i did misunderstand what you said at first.
