Development screenshots #1 [Closed]

in game.

ill wait then.

either the Burnside or there is this one other set of rims Dtroxx found they look to be from a late 60s or 70s Japanese car so maybe they could be reserved for the Miramar maybe?

 

There's

there's a reason people call them the trabi steelies, trabant, an old east German car.

 

ETK... East Technical Company maybe (or something like that)? Could there be an ETK Trabant like thing?

 

More than likely that ETK has an in-house department specifically for designing the Trabant rims for the ETK 856, but what do you expect from German automakers?

 

BeamNG isn't set in the US... It happens to have a few maps set in the US, but the whole game isn't strictly 'set' there. If that were the case, why do we have the Pigeon and the Gendarmerie Sunburst? I'd love to see more cars in beam that aren't necessarily common in the US, like British roadsters, diesel mini-trucks, Australian muscle cars, a Trabant, goofy JDM cars etc.

As for the rims, I don't see why they have to be from a Trabant equivalent. The whitewalls heavily imply that they are from the Burnside, and since the whole car is completely of Gabe's design, I see no reason for the rims to need to match up with a real car's. There is no real world equivalent of the SBR4, so why should the Burnside have to have real world rims? It's not like old school steelies look that different anyway. They could easily just be a Burnside rim that is usually adorned with baby moons, thus rendering the rim somewhat unrecognizable without them.

OT:
Great work on all the new stuff. You guys never fail to impress with your vehicle craftsmanship. At the pace you guys are going you're going to run out of concept vehicles before long.

 

http://www.gfycat.com/BlaringPleasantAustralianfurseal Nadeox posted this GIF on r/beamng. One of his comments was "That car looks..interesting, no? ". It wasn't getting much attention there, so I decided to share it here.

 

While I hope there is more variety of vehicles uncommonly found in North America in the future, and believe that the game has a broader potential than to just portray American auto culture, the plan seems to have always been just that. The general lack of European vehicles, the virtual exclusivity toward left hand drive, and many of the non-US vehicles having US-spec features and license plates indicates that was generally what the devs were going for to start with. This coupled with the maps and props (double-yellow striped roads on DRI, US stop and speed signage as the sign prop) further reinforces that notion. Whether or not they continue in this direction has yet to be determined.

Insofar as I can tell, the Gendarmerie version was the team's tribute to the city of paris following the attacks last month.

It's not a real car, but it takes cues from various real-world cars from that time and place. Even in fiction, believibility matters for immersion's sake. Also, the wheel has the wrong number of bolts. This would make it mechanically inaccurate; a big no-no for Gabe's school of design.

 

Yeah, & I doubt we're ever going to see a Holden knock off

 

Now that I've seen the back end of the old Pessima, I think changing it was probably a good choice. The new one looks like... a generic compact car, whereas the old one looked more American or maybe like a bigger Japanese car.

 

Like I swear this should be renamed to Hype Simulator 2015, because 99% of the posts now are, "ERMAHGERD,ERS THER GIN TER BER NERW CERS ERN DA NERXT ERPDERT, GERB, PLERS HERP!"

Spoiler

someone kill me now.

and like 1% is actually dev pictures. Just pointing that out.

 

You guys are officially tied with the Automation guys with being the best Devs in the business.
<3

 

What about the license plate sizes and a lot of the cars ingame and soon to be ingame are commonly found in America except the pigeon of course

Honestly it can be set where ever you wanted it to be, like grid map isn't a specific place, just download one of those license plate mods.

 

This just in: ETK has recalled over 2 million vehicles due to faulty hubs. Under acceleration, the wheel hubs may break off of the suspension, causing the driver to lose control of the car.

 

@gabester, mind paying the medical costs to reattach my jaw?

 

what about that?
oh there is a hidden red dashboard
i dig that

 

But it's official and has EXT cab.

 

also if nobody caught it, gabe said ext. cab is gonna come when feature of being able to move jbeam without making a copy will come, so there is that, too
