Is there some kind of current issue with the power of all cars?

Not sure if...my question makes sense or not... Basically, any car I drive (stock or custom) just has extremely low power...yet still can reach it's stop speed? Like... the Covette cannot actually drive unless I rev to max in Neutral and then shift to 1st. If I try to start in 1st, even in Arcade automatic (which I hate using), it just stalls. I'm confused. Maybe I'm an idiot and there is some new feature I don't understand?

Can anyone shed some light on this? The blondie for another example, barely is able to limp to speed. While she reaches her top speed (Pretty sure it is top speed) she takes absolutely forever and doesn't even burn out like she used to. I remember the blondie, having no traction control and what not, being the burn out machine if not driven carefully. But now? Hell she barely burns out if I forcefully do so in manual.

Another smaller issue, if you turn, AT ALL, even like 15 degrees, the one of the tires (but never both) loses traction and the car instantly max revs. That...is also strange to me, but again maybe there is some new feature I am too dumb to understand... lol

Is this something everyone is dealing with? Or...am I and/or my game being dumb?

 

Something wrong on your end mate.

And its bolide not blondie.

 

Ah ha! I felt like...something was wrong... haha. Pardon me on the bolide, when I first played the game I read it as "Blondie"... So I kind of learned it wrong and thus I forget to correct myself at times :/
Anyway, I guess I will try to trash the game install and re-download it.

 

Sounds like your controls are being interfered with. Do you have a controller or steering wheel plugged in that's on the floor with buttons always pressed or something?

 

Have you accidentally set the gravity higher?

 

I used a PS3 controller, and always have. It never gave me issues before, and this issues I am having work with or without the controller plugged in :0

I don't...think so... But that is a good one. Does it save or something? I just deleted the game and she is downloading now. So I will report my findings soon.

 

Gravity doesn't save, no.

Before you start the game after installing, delete the settings folder in Documents\BeamNG.drive. It will clear any controller mappings etc, and hopefully remapping it should fix it.

 

If it's still there after you've re-downloaded the game then delete everything (except for the mods) in /documents/BeamNG.Drive .
Should fix it.

 

I trashed it all, my mods too... I'm sure some of them must of been old anyway. So...time to start fresh!!

Download is almost done ^^

Deleted everything related to the game. Problem still persists... I am...confused.

 

All of these "effects" have not gone away. response to these claims, it look G Force, or are you trying to go too fast or you overestimate your speed. but I do not agree with "in fact everything is very realistic". I believe that in this game there are serious mistakes in physics. differntsial to work incorrectly. Physics tire wrong.

cool game if viewed as a simulation of destruction of machines, but not as a racing simulator.

 

Well..I don't know about all that, lol. I mean I do agree the game has a few... strange "realistic" things. But the problem I am having I am pretty sure is a bug.

 

All of these "effects" have not gone away. But for every my doubt about these "effects", I keep getting: 'look at your G-meter - it`s super-realistic! And you don`t know shit in physics!!' Even though, I`ve driven a dozen of real cars, reaching their top speeds on countryroads. So, it is unrealistic, especially in a part with the tire physics. Also differential isn`t working as it should, like, at all.
It`s a cool game to demolish a car, but tends to be an aweful driving simulator.
IMHO

The numbers prove it...



Besides, that is a completely unrelated issue.

 

Yeah I am not sure what he is talking about...I mean I do agree that the game has some... strange "realistic" ideas. But that isn't the point of this thread.

 

Numbers are only able to prove something when the inputs are correct. But game doesn`t seem to have those correct, and thus those numbers don`t really matter.

 

M8, if you think the driving physics are just bad then you either never drove a real car or you've played to much NFS.

 

I agree the physics are realistic, but the driving mechanics are not, I have a g27 and the ffb on this game is absolutely no resistance on it so it feels like im driving in space, if I set the ffb any higher than that it throws the wheel all around in weird unrealistic directions whenever I hit a single pebble.

Look at games like rfactor, race07, iracing, and even project cars... yes the entire focus of those games is driving mechanics and physics but the ffb is a lot more realistic on a wheel and disabling it makes almost every car uncontrollable and disappointing to drive.

Even the keyboard driving is bad, the way they had it before was fine, but now you cannot correct from any mistakes, the turning is so damn slow its like grandparents driving simulator.

Anyways I think adding correct ffb for wheels would make it so much more realistic feeling and enjoyable to drive in this game. if anyone has any magical settings for ffb that you know of, please tell me.. I couldn't figure it out.

 

Please, make a separate topic if you must discuss another subject.

@op, Do you notice anything odd while viewing the controls menu in realtime? (Open controls and see if inputs are changing without your input)

 

the max speed on t series first gears around 10 mph and when i lock the right tires and let the left tires spin the left still go 10 mph shouldnt they go 20 because of how diffs work
