    (Also called Aus Hills)

    Pwoaahhhh, G'day mate! (Poooley's intro). Welcome to my first proper map for Beamng Drive! I have made a few maps before this but haven't released them because I did everything wrong. This map however, is different. This is a map made off Johnson Valley, which is mainly based off areas in Australia like the Victorian High Country and the general Aussie outback. It has many similar features to Johnson Valley, except is stuffed with eucalyptus. Features of the map:
    • Same gas station, highway, settlement, and event city as Johnson Valley
    • A few little manmade houses and stuff by me
    • Lots of offroad tracks including a powerlines track and gully track.
    Things to do on the map:
    • Hoon (no AI sorry)
    • 4wd
    • Crash
    Pros:
    • PBR textures
    • Detailed handbuilt tracks
    • Some features from Johnson Valley
    Cons/bugs:
    • Still has the stuff from Johnson Valley that was in the background, now just floats mid air off the map
    • Relatively average forest
    • Not as hilly as the real high country
    • The trees aren't working currently
    Credits:
    • Me for the work
    • Beamng for the base map and objects
    • Mates for their encouragement
    • Many people for their amazing mods that I love and have used in the pictures shown
    Hope you enjoy it! Google drive link:
    WARNING! Trees do not show up, and map is not being worked on from now on, even though the quality is low

    Looks nice! The dirt probably should be a bit redder, but I don't know if you can do anything about that.

    It looks great so far! I think it was a good choice to go with Johnson Valley this time since the grid size is set to 0.750 instead of 1.0, making the terrain smoother.

    I also agree with pigeonperson about the dirt color. You can easily edit the textures in paint.net. The dirt on my map was a bit gray, so I adjusted it to make it redder.

    Does the map work when spawned in? I have a suspicion that it will be the same as johnson valley

    If not I might have a break and try out making maps for snowrunner, its apparently easier

    Sheesh I am unlucky. Even having trouble with modding snowrunner. My problems are mainly based around the fact that im on linux for both beamng and snowrunner, and if I had gotton Snowrunner on epic not steam it would have all worked :(. (Frustrated sounds)

    Didn’t have time to take any pictures this arvo sorry, but I have fixed a large issue and will be releasing as a zip file later this week hopefully! Just want to add a few more features, and then it will come out. I have extended the powerlines track and added two campsites for now, more to come over the next few days before v1.1. This time it will work!

    Has been delayed for up to a week, due to a small issue and being away for a few days.
