0.33 Discussion Thread

I think that the devs are actually right, here. They are proceeding in a very logical way: they started to implement off-road and heavy equipment stuff, so they are trying to finish that part to move on to the next. Also, as stated by the Lead Dev, they are implementing stuff that will be useful for the future. Judging by the content of the changelog, they are building a base for more accurate physics, which is crucial for a better racing experience (FFB, maybe tire thermals, etc...)
They've been mainly focusing on power transmission and suspension. That allowed them to actually upgrade the drifting physics. And that drifting physics is very important when doing some racing: having the fastest line is also trying to find the grip's limit at all time.
They are probably working in the background on more track-racing oriented stuff, but we can't know for sure. All I know for a fact is that they're improving the game each update. So.... Just leave them time ("LET THEM COOK!") and let them dev the game.

Wut ??

 

I understand that but still like i said people have been asking for a lot of things and i get that the tire thermal stuff you are talking about is great but like this new truck for example. Did anyone want this? i don't know (Probably not) we have been asking for a lot of remasters and this tire thermal stuff would be great to add with that. The devs are great and probably are some of the best game devs i can think of. but like all great devs, they kind of let you down. like this update again for example. it is not what the community wants. we don't need more vehicles. we like having already functioning vehicles. like the burnside, or the etk, or the Miramar, or the sunburst, and my personal favorite the Gavril Barstow. these all need remasters and there are even more vehicles I'm forgetting. and the constant updates to west coast USA. holy hell mate. cut down on them please. that is a little annoying. we needs some more updates to something else. idk if anyone agrees. i think they need to listen to us. i understand about the stuff that will help in the future, and i think that is great. tire thermals are cool and drifting is one of my favorite beamng things to do. I am not against the devs like i said earlier they are the best. they just have to listen to their huge fanbase. they have more people on reddit than the damn mad max reddit. that is insane. pls devs just listen to us.

 

The possibility of tire wear would be great

 

When you create traffic of more than 12 cars, the sounds of turn signals, horns, etc disappear. Please tell me how this can be fixed?

 

You have to go to the sound settings, there is an item "maximum number of sources" together with "usually" select Ultra 512 sources there. After that, everything should work!

 

Oh! You've been very helpful. Indeed, this solved the problem. Thank you very much!

 

I love the fact that you just contradicted yourself within three sentences. Also, a lot of people actually wanted a medium-duty truck, along with other fixes, like PBR interior for the Hopper. And guess what? We got all of them.

 

The rear difflocks on the T-series do not work for me, anyone else with the same issue?
The differential button toggles and a message displays that they are locked, but they do not actually lock.
It can also be seen on the drivetrain visualizer that they do not lock.

 

Yeah I heard what you were saying. What I'm saying, in short, is that what people want is not necessarily what can be done right away. A lot of features that the devs are testing are posted as mods for now because they are too experimental to go into the actual game. This doesn't mean that they're working less on them. It's like a pre-release version of some future features.
So all I'm saying is that devs are going in a very methodical way here. They started off-road, they finish off-road. Off-road leads them to better drifting physics because of suspension, steering, power distribution and tires rework? They work on drifting. Drifting will probably lead them to track racing very soon. Who knows, they might even be already working on that as we speak.
My point is: be patient, understand that the community is very vast and doesn't want the same things at all and that dev-ing a game is not just answering the community's desires, it's also about making choices. So wait for a couple of updates, keep asking every now and then.

 

Welp mate, time to delete my account.

Alr i will be patient.

 

8-Lug Automatic Locking Front Hubs are still broken. I remember having this issue on the H-Series months ago, now I checked again in safe mode. Equipping them with the D-Series solid front axle destroys the steering and on the H-Series it blows the wheels and brake discs off when equipped with the independent front suspension.

 

Are opening doors and hoods still disabled on intel's? I have been trying for a long time to get my opening doors and hoods to work but with every update nothing changes. I've tried launching in safe mode, removing all mods, uninstalling and re-installing and nothing has worked. I feel like when I downloaded the opening doors mod all those years ago and mapped key binds to it it messed with the game files and is permanently broken. I hope they can fix it because I really like looking at the details of the cars and things in game and having to rip the hood off or doors or go to the menu and remove them from the car just because I would like to open the door or play with the other small touches like the interior buttons on some mods. Its just frustrating that it doesn't work on my computer and I have tried everything I can think of to fix it so I hope the dev's find something and fix it.

 

anyone else have been unable to access the repo in-game?

 

Container semi-trailer should has own brake. It's not possible to expand them when using dolly.

 

The repository will only ever go past this screen when the game is launched through Steam.
Previously launching the x64.exe and skipping both Steam and the launcher worked fine.

Is this intended behaviour? If yes, you should probably add the link to the whitelist and that bit of info to the page.

 

I tend to send lengthy emails to the BeamNG devs, mainly because I don't entirely know where exactly to post these kinds of things on the BeamNG forums. But the email consists of a few things regarding several suggestions about what the devs can add and or improve in the game. The email goes as follows:

Yeah, it’s me again. I just want to say thank you for the dedication you’ve put into this recent update. There’s just a few things and suggestions I’d like to clarify in this email:

1. Most medium-duty trucks have a lot of upfits which they are mainly built for, which can be described in the following image:

I know that this is a pre-release, but I wanted to include this as suggestions for some future upfits that can be used for the Gavril MD series.

1. Most of the times when you are on the highway, you can hear a faint whistling noise. This is the air that is flowing from the tires between the treads. If you don’t know what I mean, you can go on a short drive and go onto a highway and you’ll see what I mean. Also, there can be certain “thumping noises” whenever you drive over patched up or reconstructed roads.

1. There are still some cars that are awaiting, and in need of, a remaster:

1. Gavril Barstow
2. Burnside Special
3. Hirochi Sunburst
4. Bruckell Moonhawk
5. Gavril Bluebuck
6. Ibishu Hopper
7. Ibishu Miramar
8. Ibishu Pessima (1988 – 1991)
9. Wentward DT40L
10. Ibishu Pessima (1996 – 2000)]
11. Ibishu Pigeon

​

Obviously all these will take some time, and I am not asking to finish all of these in one go, just a reminder that they are still in need of a remaster.

1. The only car that I have seen get a more modern version is the Ibishu pessima. If you plan to do it again, I, and a great majority of people on the BeamNG forums, would love to see a modern D-series.
2. Vehicle suggestions:
   1. Cabover medium duty truck

1. Step Van

​

1. Firetruck

​

1. European Semi truck

​

1. Modern Cargo van

​

Those are all of the suggestions that I can think of in this email, there are probably more than can be put in BeamNG, but that’s all that I can think of.


Before you say, I know that I am not using the forums. The reason why that I email instead of using the forums is so that I know it is at least received when a dev responds. That is all.


Thank you!

Yeah, those number 1's are supposed to list everything in the email, for some reason it didn't really work when I tried exporting it into this thread. Besides that, what do you all think?

 

Judging by the Rams in that image, all of those upfits look like better candidates for a D35/45 than an MD. But I'm assuming you're after something like this for the middle two?

 

Yes, as well as a boom arm. A boom arm would be something very new be really cool to have in it in BeamNG. A majority of the upfits could work for the MD series, but yes, it would also most definitely work and would be well fitting with the D45 series, which is something we could definitely use.

Excuse my grammar.

 

also in that case the Linux version would need to be added officially to the Steam launch menu.

 

How can I solve the problem with a broken repository?
