This is my very very first time making a mod. I'm super excited. However, I need some ideas of the simplest things to make. (I'm still very new to BeamNG.drive. Not even half a year.) I would also need guidance in modding.( I'm not even 14 yet)
If you know how to use blender, you may want to start by here : https://wiki.beamng.com/Introduction_to_Vehicle_Creation
I need some ideas. I will slowly learn in the wiki. Anyway, thanks for the link. Will start the work during the end of September. ( I know it's a bit too early... )
Before doing anything, do a simple cube, or something like that, just to understand how everything works
I'd start with skinning, then license plates, then map making using the world editor, then continue on to custom map making and vehicle creation.
^This, start by making custom skins for vehicles, that should keep you busy for a while since it's pretty involved, as you get used to editing files you'll have more of a handle on what goes where. Start in the wiki, introduction to the skin system
What kind of skin would you like? I had a dream of making a Malaysian taxi skin mod. --- Post updated --- The first mod: see the upper post First car mod: Honda Fit/Jazz First mods of mods mod: Hirochi Sunburst 1.5 Inline 4 First License plate mod: Malaysian license plate These are plans only. I will make a final decision on what to make, and which first on middle September.
There's something wrong with this thread: you ask what to make, but you never made a mod and have no idea how to??? It's like someone make a thread about a wip mod, when the work isn't even started. My advice: Make something you like, we see that you can make something, then ask what does the community want and not dissapoint someone with a promised mod that will never happen then.
You may want to look at the top posts. Maybe I should put this off for some time. --- Post updated --- Nice idea. --- Post updated --- Why I'm delaying bcs I'm very busy at studies.(Malaysia's Education Institution is crazy at making exams for us no offense) The exam is on September 11 to 18.
Make a fully jbeamed cube to crash into. If you succeed, you can surely move on to something more complicated.
Yeah, I created a simple cube a while ago, and I learned all about how the game works, and jBeam, texturing, etc. Then lengthen it to become a rectangular prism car, and learn about hydros and suspension. Keep adding on until you have learned enough to make a real car.
How about you do a older D-Series or make a Dodge Ramcharger like truck maybe call it the Bruckell Kobra
You need to create jbeam files Example: open your notepad Leave the file empty Save as -> (NAMEHERE).txt now replace .txt by .jbeam: (NAMEHERE).Jbeam click save Tadaaa
