    I have a feeling this wont be added but anyway. devs, Would it be possible to add forums mod access in game similar to how you can subscribe to repo mods? In most cloud gaming services, there isn't access to the web or file explorer so If possible (without lawsuits ofc) can you please add forum files to in-game?

    I don't mean to be rude, but just how bad is your PC? As much as people joke that a GT 710 is only for people that want to fill their PCI slot so it doesn't get dusty, you can buy one for like $70. As for the processor, a basic four core, maybe $150 CPU will do the job well. (something like an i3-10100 or Ryzen 5 3500X)

    I have a word, it starts with I, can you guess what it is?

    It's irrelevant.
    OT: You could just open up a web browser.

    He is asking if they can make the forums accessible from in-game, because when he uses something like GeForce Now, he can't open a web browser and download forum mods. I was asking how bad his PC is because the much simpler solution is to run BeamNG natively, and then, yes Phym, you can open a web browser.

    New GT 710s are still cheap (<$100) at Newegg, Amazon, and Ebay. It's not a beauty, and if you can afford it, I recommend springing for a GT 1030, but they do exist. :)

    dont bother with the gt710 unless you need to. the gt1030 is a very good ultra budget card.

    Might sound stupid, but have you tried pushing the GPU down? Maybe it didn't get into the "click" and that's why the clip won't move.

    I legit use a gt710 and a unlocked 'single' dual core cpu. It bottlenecks the gt710.
    The gt710 may be crap, but can still run games that were new a few years ago, considering beamng was released quite a while ago. It can still run games at at least 30fps..
