Some people unironically calling 0.27 "The absolute worst update ever released" because they personally don't enjoy offroading lol, and they come up with dumb arguments like:
"The new map is mostly empty and has just 1 road"... that's exactly what the irl place looks like and it's the entire point of the map lol
"Most of the new cars are similar to mods we already had before"... This is the case for almost all vanilla cars ever lol, also they don't appreciate that we got 5 NEW CARS AT THE SAME TIME
"The new cars don't handle well on roads"... They are offroad cars
"They almost don't deform"... Bruh most of them are roll cages on wheels how could they deform easily
"The Wydra is extremely slow"... I don't see what even is bad about this, it's realistic, also they completely ignore the fact that it can float lol
"The update broke my favorite mods"... aside from the stuff that got fixed in the hotfix, it broke like 5 mods lol, compared to hundreds of mods broken by previous updates
"No graphics improvements"... Literally wrong, reworked bloom is a huge thing
"No interesting new content"... 5 cars, skid steering, water driving support, tire inflation system, how is that not interesting???
"The new Piccolina buggy is just a new body for the old one"... They know nothing about baja buggies lol, these cars share almost no parts at all
"Most new cars have like 3 configs"... They are not street legal cars so how could they have a lot lol
"The devs have become extremely lazy"... I FAIL TO SEE HOW WORKING 5 YEARS ON 1 UPDATE IS LAZY BRUH

These are all real arguments I have seen, none of this is made up or exaggerated. Why are people judging quality based on personal preferences, this is dumb

I Can't believe people Said that .
Even I , who isn't much a fan of offroading, actually enjoyed the update. Especially the Stambecco and the Wydra

I have found a bug. In West Coast, USA, if you spawn in a car, and then free camera, and go down really far in the water, and F7 there, the wheels are invisible. Then, when you f7 back up in the city, you will have invisible wheels. I find it cool, but it is a Glitch, i guess

This is because BeamNG somewhat accurately simulates the greatly increasing water pressure as you go deeper. The current wheel simulation doesn’t particularly like that kind of pressure, and so they basically just implode and disappear. It may technically be a bug, but not an easily solved one.

He meant they disappear but still work. That should be fixed when they finally add that new mesh interpolation thing, so the meshes deform and break more accrurately

too much baja... when ETK I Series coupe, headlights revamp, antilag, FCV 3 door body ?

It will eventually come and what I'd like for a future update that adds Ford E-350 based accessories for the H-Series, (like an extended body and 2008 Ford based headlights)

I couldn't find a section for the Hirochi Sunburst under "official content" but when you shift the CVT to "S" mode, the gauge cluster shows L.

Ok so I have come across a new bug with the entire bloom thing.
I'm working on my light bars, and thought the bloom thing was doing wonders, when it didn't really.

It only works on lights that are either not covered, or covered by glass that has a colour within grayscale colours, so white to dark grey as far as I've tested it now.
Giving the glass a colour, such as blue, makes bloom not pass for some reason.

On the left you can see the 3 dots, grey glass, high opacity; on the right, same thing, same colours (except the main lights), blue glass, lower opacity to make the blue actually show.

I then changed the entire texture of the glass to a grey, and added a baseColorFactor (taken from the vanilla material file from the light bar glass), and it had the same issue.

Meaning, that bloom does not pass coloured glass.

I then went ahead to see, if the vanilla light bar does look any different, and nope, it doesn't.

The only thing they changed is the emissiveFactor of the lights to make them brighter, which didn't resolve the bloom issue tho.

Figured, I'd try in safe mode, same issue.

And here you can clearly see it.

TL;DR
Bloom doesn't pass coloured glass; only grey-ish glass or glass with high opacity does let bloom pass

It's not really a bug, that's how light energy works

An extra light source appears near the headlight or taillight. They move with the vehicle and are not in the position they should be. This does not appear in safe mode and only occurs in the normal version of the game with the graphics set to "low".
Also, I tried to take a screenshot of this, but for some reason it often does not show up in what I take. In this picture of the H series, you can see the displaced light circled in red, but in reality there are also two orange light sources floating near the turn signal, one on each side.
The game version is 0.27.1 with one clean install and none of the mods.

Have you considered increasing the texture quality?

Wait, Man, THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH!
But, again It's a bug, because I have not this problem in older versions when running on low textures quality

Do it in the BlueBuck Lowrider, and it looks like something from Star Wars!

when opening the doors at covet, the door, reaching the limiter, bounces off it and closes if the car is on a slope and if on a flat surface, it also starts to close and when it reaches a certain position of the open door, it stops. I do not know how to explain this correctly, but if you try to open the door on a flat surface, it will hit the limiter and begin to close.

beamn driver · Jan 2, 2023

it is necessary that the doors open more slowly then they will not hit the limiter hard and will not start to close from the impact

Not sure if it was mentioned or not, but on East Coast, USA, every 'Crawl' mission is bugged. Once the start timer ends it resets to the starting screen. (also tested in safe mode)
Click to expand...

Yes, also West Coast and Small Island crawl missions are affected.
Safe mode, cleared cache and verified integrity.

UI bug: if you start a scenario or time trial (don't press Start when it loads) then immediately open Freeroam, a blank button appears at the bottom of the screen and you have to press it to play. If you then go back to the scenario/time trial there will be no start button and you have to press R first.

Don't know if I should put this in this thread but the new alleyways on WCA aren't shown on the minimap.
