Wheels model missing, physical object still there...

Incubus0908 · Dec 23, 2014

Hello community,

I have the issue that I've failed to research online before, that the wheels on my stock cars are missing.
And by that I mean that they're appearantly invisible, because the affected cars can still drive around and
their structure is even visible in skeleton mode, but they just arent visible for me. Modded cars and planes
seem to be unaffected.
I don't know if that is part of the issue too, but in the Parts Menu, there is no option for wheels either. I am
uncertain, however, if there has ever been an entry for wheels themselves.

I am running on Win 8.1 64bit with a nvidia GT 650M and some i5 model and 4GB RAM. I have checked for missing files
vie Steam options menu, but that did not help me.

Attached files are:

Car without tires

Parts Menu with missing entry

(What I assume to be the) jbeam structure of physically present wheels

Helpful contributions are appreciated,
- Incubus

PS, This is my first post, please don't be harsh on me

Hi. All your problems are related to the experimental version (and people already asked about them, you may want to refine your
searching method).

Experimental is a non stable, buggy version of the game that includes new features that aren't fully developed yet.

The part selector is one of those feature. It's currently broken.
The invisible cars is part of the new multi-dae feature that no longer support certain mods. That's why if you use an old mod that wasn't made or updated for the new system, the 3d model will just be invisible.

There is no issue with your system, it's just normal for the experimental.

If you are bugged about that you can switch back to the stable version through steam (properties, beta tab).

Also look for the "experimental feedback" thread to know more about it (under general discussion tab in the alpha section).

So are you implying that by installing a mod I knackered the stock cars? That seems a little odd to me, but you never know.

That could happen. If you are coming from the stable version, it's highly recommended to manually delete the folder of BeamNG.Drive and the folder inside Documents/BeamNG and let steam run a file verify to redownload a fresh copy of it. You can backup any additional map you downloaded before doing that. Maps should work on both version without problems, but vehicles..

This way you are sure you got rid of any eventual old file from stable version.
