Update: Version 1.3

This version brings compatibility with BeamNG 0.39, new and partially pbr textures, Freeroam Bus Mode, reduced file size and more!

Remeber to clear your cache after updating!

Changelog:

updated sunsky and clouds for 0.39

added new pbr groundcover with subsurface scattering

updated all trees, bushes and containers to pbr

updated road, bricks and metal materials to pbr

replaced most houses with independently colorable houses

added night lighting

added a few new roads

updated restaurant and industries signs

changed textures of billboards, now most have advertisements instead of scraps of paper on them

reworked transition between grassland and desert

added ambient wind using the forest audio editor

improved ambient water sounds, now using audio ribbon editor, removed unnecessary sfx emitter objects

added dynamic traffic AI speed limits, 50 km/h in cities, "unlimited" on other roads

added police vehicle group for AI traffic and evade missions

added poi system similar to that of Skeleton Coast

moved many regular spawnpoints to pois, 18 spawnpoints remain

removed some spawnpoints/poimarkers and added a few new ones

updated all thumbnails and added/revised descriptions

updated time trials to modern standards

added one new time trial: another short circuit on AR Race Track

removed old bus lines which were using the base-game system

added Freeroam Bus Mode with audiovisual stop and line announcement system: pull up at a stop, open the doors, select a line and drive to the end while stopping at all stops inbetween, no loading times, with time- and violations-based scoring system

removed some unnecessary files

removed .cdae and imposter files, which are now generated when loading the map first time, which results in a longer loading time but smaller file size

used linking system to further reduce the file size

reduced file size from 664.51 to 476.09 MB

moved all objects by +569 on the z-axis, to move the sea level of the map from -569 to 0 - this lead to issues in the past (most notable when flying a plane and colliding with an invisible wall) and should be fixed now (thanks to AlexKidd71 and his amazing Mapping Tool!)

I probably forgot some things

one existing secret has been expanded (I wonder if anyone ever found it )

a few new secrets

Images: These are some of the in-game previews, so they are a bit smaller than usual.

The download link for the new version can be found at the bottom of the first post. You can also find an introduction to the Freeroam Bus Mode there.

I will keep the download for pre-0.39 version 1.2 up, in case anyone cannot or does not want to update their game past 0.38. The download link can be found on the first page of this tread.

An update to the mission pack will follow soon.

As it relates to the mission pack. Idk if anyone else plays Garage 2 Garage as often as me but the one that gives us 'new' vehicles to drive I find it's sometimes too repetitive and I have good amount of mods installed. Now idk if that's something you can fix on your part but it would probably be best to add a G2G scenario making us deliver all/ various vehicles even if that means getting spawned a dump truck to drive 15 kms. Also Idk if anymore spawn points within the scenario could be created. I still feel there is a part of the map I have yet to explore. Thank you for keeping this mod updated
