Sneak Peek: Tire Physics Development

i suspect that you're under 16

 

Will there be a tool for people to make their own tires or is it too early to say?

 

They mentioned and showed that they have their own tire testing machine in the game, so hopefully, like the roof crusher, it will be available as a prop for modders to test their tires with.

 

And studded rally tires too!!

 

By the way you should do parallel research on the braking system, in particular brake disks, their heating, wear and tear and the effect of disk heating on wheel heating, which is actually very influential in circuit racing

 

Plus the fact that carbon-ceramic discs are lighter than normal iron ones. I remember the dev team ran into some serious issues with bugs in their first attempt at this topic with the Scintilla. And while I'm glad carbon-ceramic discs spread amongst the modern BeamNG performance vehicles (the Scintilla and both the modern ETKs, plus, along with the Selecta SportPlus 2R tires, I'd also love these brakes to be part of the Vivace S 410Q Arsenic, they certainly could remove some weight from the front end, carrying the 5-cylinder, and they would also remove the worry of fading, since the front brakes of the S 410Q Arsenic will fade from continuous deceleration sooner or later), some work on their weight reduction has to be done sometime in the future.
Can't rush work though!

P.S.: The carbon fiber roofs of the ETK ttSport+ and the FCV Arsenic models also need some weight shaving!

 

pov minecraft updates, i don't think it will take that long, i think atleast 5 month

just look between these two update there only 3 month, so not in yearS

 

we're talking about the new tire physics here, not updates in general

the new tire physics will take forever to make, that video was just a little sneak peek

 

Being honest, I'm looking forward to seeing potentially vehicles losing the bead of their tire due to significant side loading or pressure. Or some dork over pressurizes the tire and it blows the heck out over a bump. Im looking forward to future updates on here regarding every little improvement. I wanna see this and get an idea of exactly how slow these sorts of things take to develop

I hope to see tire chains eventually. That would be interesting and I think they should test for that too. I want to hear and see tire chains being tested on tires and how the wear affects that as well. If they're really going all the way with that I've got to see this.

 

If a new tire model appears it would drastically change how they adapt to terrain and grip onto surfaces. Currently when you're going slow you can see how the tire is bobbing the vehicle up and down or just rock crawling which makes the tires constantly slip slip slip between the edges of the tire faces. If it had a higher res or a different model it would handle a lot better overall. right?

However i don't see how the tires smooth out in a recent comment. In slowmo at 100 km/h the tire has a air gap between each edge of the tire and often times still bumping ever so slightly. When you turn one of the wheels will be going faster while the other side is going slower, making them desync and start skipping or make the vehicle shake (gets noticeable with larger wheels). Am i not seeing something in the background of how that is not negatively effecting the performance of the vehicle or is gyroscopic stabilization in consideration? (If that's the right word for this situation) I'm very curious how the current wheel model holds up and if it will ever be possible to have a smooth realistic tire with simulated treads.

nonetheless when this drops it will definitely be my favorite game update overall as i love racing and offroading. Hope to see more updates on this topic!

 

I am 100% looking forward to this and if it does what I think it's going to..... We might actually see snow chains being an option in the future.... We'll see because I'm curious now

Are you like a team of like five? I'm just curious. I'm not trying to poke any fun at you. I'm being very serious right now. Like have you ever thought about hiring another person like one at a time over time? I don't know. I'm just throwing that out there. How big is your team exactly? I'm curious.

If you guys need someone to Geek the freak out about the weather and how weather patterns may be simulated in the game. Im probably a good person to talk to and if I dont know. I can probably toss you at a chat or recommend a meteorologist. Weather is what I love more than cars.

 

Tires naturally spin at different speeds when u turn no? The bumpiness argument I understand tho

 

This phenomenon can be felt via FFB in higher end wheels. I feel like the devs have spent a significant amount of time tuning the FFB model to compensate for the current tire model and possibly tweaked the grip levels in the tires to also compensate for the rough model of the current tires. Tbh the only way to know for sure would be to make a "smoother" tire model and see if that makes a big enough difference (Hint, it would).

When building racecars using vanilla parts and cars is where you really feel how bad the current tire model really is. It feels like the cars were not meant to be pushed to their absolute limits. I feel like this new in development tire model will help a lot, but the J-Beam will still probably need work.

 

Except you already can increase the number of rays in the model to make it smoother, and you then realize it doesn't really improve stuff at all

 

That's what i was implying which is causing the vehicle is slip more as it's vibrating from the changes of wheel speed on each side.

I can also see slippage upon heavy braking where it should be getting the absolute most grip as it's tippy toeing on the faces of the tire. It feels like brake failure even though the brakes are perfect but it only happens semi-rarely but annoying enough to say something and can ruin competition in races

Also antilock brake system is advanced enough it notices that and freaks out sometimes my car REFUSES TO SLOW DOWN at all for 500 feet AND THEN THE brakes kick in.
