Something new is on the horizon

yes it is the new vehicle, this has been mentioned a lot lol
Here's the back of the car

 

looks like a 350z from the back. where did u get the image?

 

devs posted in Discord

 

are there more?

 

yeah I uploaded all of them here

So excited for the graphics overhaul, and the PS5 port will mean much deserved additional income for the dev team! Glad that we'll also see more optimizations coming to PC, hopefully meaning that mesh streaming will eventually allow truly massive, detailed maps to be in game.

Once 0.39 drops, better dust and smoke effects will be all that is needed to make BeamNG on par with modern games (with dynamic dirt and mud textures being nice but much more challenging to implement).

 

I also think dynamic vehicle surface scratches would be cool. Like if you drive through a bush or drive against a wall, actual scratches will appear on your paint.

 

i have a question about the update to lighting/shadows

in BeamNG currently, the further and further you get from world origin, the lighting and shadows will flicker due to float point error

is this something thats going to be addressed in the new update? or will this still be an issue?

 

If i have on pc do i have to pay again for game on ps5?
--- Post updated ---
will my rx570x and rysen 5 2600 struggle more or less?

 

If i have the game on pc can i get it for free on the PS5?

 

Xbox fan's need to wach this space

 

As for multi-player on ps5 when it eventually comes (

Will you need Playstation plus to use multi-player in beamng when it eventually launches on console with multi-play

 

thanks

 

it is amazing how far beamng.drive has come

 

So what you're saying is that flicker of assets and vehicle and related floting point errors have been fixed? that's so epic! is it fixed fixed or just a new larger limit? if so what's that limit?

 

That is one of the updates i was waiting for. Looks like objects can finally stop glowing in the shadows and overall not looking so much like 2005 pc game anymore. Finally. This will make modding so much more fun or in other words be more forgiving when certain things aren't fleshed out by the creator. Also i wonder if the new vehicle light system will have the color temperature change simulation that is still missing with the fairly recently light fade effect. Where the texture should get more orange towards less energy is transitioned. And also effected by environment temperature too.
I noticed that only one of the screenshots shows the volumetric light effect from the headlights which is very suttle in the image. I wonder if this is like weather based.

I wonder what kind of differences there could be based on the market region.

 

Couple quick questions about Vulkan:

Is Vulkan basically a faster direct x12 now or do the vulkan specific issues like screen flashes remain?

Have all the updates optimizations been brought over to Vulkan?

 

I honestly think that my pc is cooked
