WIP Beta released Domley, UK(Fictional UK map)

Hello everyone! This is my first map and Beamng mod in general. This is going to be a countryside somewhere in midlands with a town, roads and some villages(hopefully).
[UPDATE]
A new country lane and the A310(all roads are made up and not related to the real life ones) parallel to the motorway on the east, more realistic road markings(legth), parked vehicles support, more farms, houses and more details.

Couldn't add screenshots due to not being able to enable two-step authentication.



What map will feature in final version:
- [100%] The town(Domley).
- [~90-100%] Road loop.
- [~25-50%] Country Lanes.
- [~25-50%] 2 villages(Comeloft, Jokelton).
- [100%] The motorway.
- [0-5%] Curbs



If you have more ideas let me know in the discussion! Also I'm very new to modding in Beamng, so give me some advice if you've got some experience.

Looks amazing! Really cool map project

The lack of curbs is a little hard to get used to, although the width of the roads are very realistic.

 

I was literally going to add curbs in the next update, as well as trying to figure out parked vehicles and if it's possible to set a speed limit. Thanks for checking it out!

 

Hell yeah, more UK maps!
Yay!

 

The map is looking very good! Though I think that you should probably add some grass and ground clutter (such as some ferns rocks and dead tree branches) as right not it does not look too good. I am only trying to give some constructive criticism about the map. Good luck with the project!

Example of how I would improve the ground grass and clutter taken from my map:

 

Thanks for advice! I'm not sure if I'll figure out how to add grass(I tried), but details like dead trees, curbs, rocks(if I figure out how to get the no texture fixed) and ferns will be added when I'm more or less finished with all roads and buildings as that's my focus at the moment.

 

Kannst du es bitte im Repo posten?

 

DE:Ich verwende Google Translate. Tut mir leid, ich wollte es im Repo posten, wenn es mehr oder weniger fertig ist, und ich weiß nicht, ob es im Repo zugelassen wird, weil es einige echte Marken enthält.

EN:Sorry, I wanted to post it on repo when it's more or less done and I don't know if it will be allowed on repo because it has some real brands.

 

Sorry i am german and it translate automatically into german ,thank you very much for you to translate this

What Brands are in the map?

 

Asda, Premier. I might make more stores and they'll be real life too. If it doesn't get approved I might actually change it to made up names.

 

I now Nothing about these Brands

 

They're only in Britain, so you might haven't heard about them.
Here they are on my map:

 

I dont think IRL shops will get accepted on the repo so id recommend doing mashups of the original names but with the same colours and stuff. Esda instead of Asda or stuff like that

 

Yeah, that's what I thought. I'll do that in the later updates.

 

You're forgetting one very important addition: speed cameras! Oops sorry, "safety cameras".

 

Can you add a lidl but its Name is LOL

 

Love the fact we're getting a UK map and can drive on the "Correct" side of the road.

Not downloaded it yet, but can I presume you are adding plenty of Roundabouts which are a key point for UK roads.

Additionally (slightly joking, but be fun) a nice selection of Pot Holes to avoid and areas of roadworks cones/signs, (with no one actually doing any work) would add greatly to the feeling of genuinely driving in the UK

 

If I figure it out. I also really want to figure out how to make working petrol stations.
--- Post updated ---

Thanks for suggestions! I'll do that, if it doesn't break ai.

 

Oh & you also want plenty of cyclists riding on the pavements in the dark staring into their phones.

 

Petrol stations is pretty easy I can help with that, did it recently for a map myself. You just need to make a folder called facilities in your levels folder, then inside there you need to make a file called facilities.facilities.json with the code below.

Code:

{
  "gasStations":[
    {
      "name":"Name",
      "description":"",
      "preview":"previewname.png",
      "energyTypes":["gasoline","diesel","unknown"],
      "pumps":[
        ["fuel_node_city_area_1", "fuel_node_city_icon_1"],
        ["fuel_node_city_area_2", "fuel_node_city_icon_2"]
        ["fuel_node_city_area_3", "fuel_node_city_icon_3"]
      ]
    },
}

fuel_node_city_area refers to the zone you create with create object, this is where your car has to be for the pump to be available.
fuel_node_city_icon refers to an icon that you place with create object

Then you can add a preview image that will show on the map menu.
