Beta Frozen Lake Version 5 5.1.0

Welcome to Frozen Lake!

VERSION 5.1 (2026/April) Changelog:

• Here is a long overdue update that fixes support for modern game versions. I have fixed hundreds upon hundreds of texture issues, for textures that have either been removed from the game, or that were referenced to other maps like eca. All texture references should now be local to this mod so that these cascading texture problems should not occur again.
• Along with general texture fixes, given the more capable forest system, I have filled out the map with more forest and it now covers all driveable areas of the map.
• This update has been to 'just get it working', and I have spent a good amount of time testing it and working through various problems found. No other major work or changes have been made. I hope you don't run into any texture problems, but if you do, please post a comment.
• There will be some lingering issues you see, notably floating trees in some areas. I hope to cover some more fixes soon, but for now this mod should at least be functional and able to be enjoyed once again.

VERSION 5 Changelog

Features:

• Added new, highly detailed "suburban" area to map. Covers a couple square KM. Adds about 5 miles of roads within its interior.
• Added about 15 miles of roads total to the map. Additions include highway areas and a new offroad section.
• Multiple spawn points added.
• Polish of new areas including road signs, sounds, etc.
• Added light towers and some ancillary details to the airport area.
• Few extra sounds here and there.

General Changes:

• Removed separate 'Night' and 'Whiteout' map configs. Reasoning, from top down is: (1) both were quite outdated and I didn't want to maintain them, (2) people can easily make a map be night by using the Environment UI editor, (3) the whiteout map was just excess fog; it didn't change road conditions or really have an effect on the feel of the map in my opinion. Any user can easily add the extra fog if they want.
• Made the ambient temperatures a tad colder.

Bugs/Bug Fixes:

• Fixed several overlapping decal roads. There's a few that I didn't bother fixing but most are cleaned up well.
• There's probably sections of the map that have weird or funky terrain or have floating objects. I haven't found these in my initial runs through the map, but please tell me if you find anything.

Also, YBR!:


Why did I make this? This idea came to me while driving home one night as I drove past a lake on my way home that, for some reason, stuck out more than usual. I'd say about 20 hours of work is in this map

The terrain is scratch built from L3DT. I made the snow texture and a couple of other signs as well as terrain editing and compiling everything. Everything else was provided by the BeamNG team or sketchup warehouse.

Features:

• Over 40 miles of roads including highway, suburban, and offroad trails.
• A large frozen lake in the center (doesn't harm FPS, I promise)
• Some random props, emitters, and sounds. This includes road signs!
• AI Support (kinda buggy)
• Snow precipitation
• Environmental sounds
• Several Easter eggs!

Spawn Points:

• Lakehouse
  • 
  • It's a house on a small island in the center of the lake. Inhabited only in the summer as it is only sustainably accessible by boat. Winter visitors include snowmobilers and, when the ice is thick enough, brave motorists.
• Offroad West
  • 
  • Offroad section in the west area of the map. Not connected to the eastern section. This offroad is tamer than Offroad East.
• Offroad East
  • 
  • Offroad section in the east area of the map. This one is far more challenging than Offroad West.
• Airport
  • 
  • Airport spawn! There's some goodies around here and tucked away areas to explore.
• West Suburbs
  • 
  • West side spawn for the suburbs. More Snoop than Tupac but definitely not any warmer. Tear it up in your Uncle's low-rider.
• East Suburbs
  • 
  • East side spawn for the suburbs. More B.I.G than Ice Cube. Not much going on here amidst the quiet desperation. Tear it up in your mom's ride between the stop signs.
• Logging Yard
  • 
  • It's a logging yard! Great job concluding that one!
• Highway
  • 
  • Start of the highway going into the suburbs from the south. Speed limit 55
