    LMGDMFAO. Good to see someone else perfecting the art of self deprecation. I hate my guts.

    I've downloaded and extracted the earlier snapshot. It boots fine and it runs, but it does the typical physics failure on every map I try, the one that freezes the camera and requires a complete restart of the game, but you can still see the skybox and foliage moving. Obviously I understand that some things won't be working properly, but this is essentially the entire thing failing to initialise.

    It's not a complaint but a question. Is it something I'm doing wrong or is this a build that is more unstable than others? The game loads the D15 by default so I assume it's either broken files for that or the game itself.


    EDIT: Snapshot 2 works fine so I guess this doesn't matter.

    The snapshot is quite easy to install when you figure it out. I really like the new interface, especially the ability to change the color of the car without having to reload it.

    The whole point of this thread is to be for dedicated users who know what they're doing. Explaining how to use this goes against that purpose.

    No problems installing on another drive. In fact no problems what so ever so far. I like the crispness that can be achieved in the
    GFX settings, definitely HD looking. This is a great showcase for what this game is going to be like in 6 months not mention lots
    of pointers as to what it will be like as a AAA game.:cool:

    I've tried it, and apart for the lag (Obviously because it's a snapshot and i downloaded it on my Hard Disco, not in :C) it looks great; The UI it's more modern and seems like Material Design from Android 5.0 Lollipop :p, but can't wait for Ibishu 200BX and Gavril (It's a gavril....Right?) Roamer (Little OT: But i'd like if Gabester bring back Hirochi SBR4) ;)
    Good work...BeamNG it's one of my favourite PC games, I have a lot of fun with it! :D

    HDD does not usually impede videogame performance vs SSD.

    Do snapshots allow sending developer crash reports?

    84% - 98% of the time there is zero way for me to explain a crash in code.
    My communication starts at what I see visually and moves up in onto foot in mouth syndrome.

    Have been using the wip2 snapshot for a little bit now and found an odd bug.

    Whenever I press ctrl+w for the part selector the hole UI dies... Game still works as of I can still drive and reset the car, but other shortcut keys or even the escape do not work. Part selector from the menu does work however so its not a big deal though. Using the 64 bit version.

    btw the new AI is pretty amazing, easily my favourite part of the snapshot:) This AI is the first I have seen that can do a real rockford turn:D

    It's best if you don't use the "ctrl+W" function for now. I guess it's just an old habit to choose parts.

    ALSO: The "ctrl+E" sometimes doesn't work, and there is no other way to select another vehicle to the best of my knowledge.

    In your mind, do you think that there will be a Steam update for BeamNG with the Roamer and the 200BX? I know that in the description it says that there will be. But, what do you think? I am afraid of ruining my BeamNG if something goes wrong with these snapshots. That is why I will wait for the official update.

    Thing I'm curious about is why there's no 200BX in the developer snapshots. Am I wrong in asumming a vehicle made by the devs that is in game would be in the dev build?

    Because they said that they were including all of the latest things as of now, there must be something really, really wrong with it. Is it possible that it is in there, but nobody has managed to find it yet?
