Update Speculation thread

yeah, -i can read-, but is that important enough of a headline to earn it bolding?

but like i said, i'm probably just making a mountain out of a molehill

 

It's the first map set in New Zealand , thus they emphasized it.

 

Yes, because it highlights how it's different than the current official maps, due to the fact that it takes place in Oceania.

 

It looks like we're getting new spares for the hopper, and a new damage indicator !
Found it when looking for some secrets from @Nadeox1 's posts.

 

The "damage indicator" is just a render. Said render has appeared previously, (Wentward bus trailer).

 

I think that spare wheel has been released for awhile.
yup

Does that mean New Zealand licence plates?

 

I think those are just plates from Automation.

 

Getting rid of specular and diffuse maps certainly is something to look forward to!

So everyone has made room for their calendar starting from Friday to this new update?

I think it would be cool to have generic interiors package which could be then used to quickly paste interiors for AM cars for personal use, but I'm going to have a look of getting simple interior for incar view done. Them glowmaps and needles are just pain, but there is always the Russian way.

 

People, forgive me (or not) How about saying AM instead of Automation, just for quick typing.

I'm just saying.

 

BeamNG - Sniper Elite for cars.

 

With the 5 year anniversary coming up in just about a month, I was beginning to think if we would get a special 5 year update. But with the automation update being later this week, and the devs past history of releasing major updates months apart, I can't imagine we would get a special 5 year update. Unless this next update is just for automation, and they save some big surprises for the 5 year anniversary in august.

Do y'all think we're going to see anything happen on the 5 year anniversary?

 

Maybe

 

I think that we could think Automation update being that 5 year celebration in early, they do say it is an early access

 

How failrace in his last video already converted car to Beamng from automation

Sadly, that imported cars doesn't have a dynamic reflection...

 

Some content creators/YouTubers got invited into an early closed beta for the Automation exporter update. Speaking of which ...

Here's some early footage of the Automation Hill Climb and Handling Track, plus some more Test Track driving.
