    Shame, i really enjoyed it, i dont even know how to make mods, the best i do is automation, the hate you got is not deserved, all beamng mods all started with simple crash physics waaay back.. and those slowly slowly got worked on with time. even the dev cars were simpler (to an extent of course), but hating on a mod that's FREE and expecting dev-level quality is just not cool.

    Please don't let the hateful minority ruin your love for modding, or your creativity/joy.

    It's unfortunate they expect dev-quality, but we can't force them to change their minds, just don't let it get to you.

    Keep it up and take care of yourself :)

    exactly! I remember back when 99% of "popular mods" were essentially meshslaps (2014-2015 yes im unc status i know) but unfortunately nowadays some people expect perfection in every single aspect, but in reality, most of us are just happy with a car with lights, horn, and breakable bits.

    he should have at least done a fair review rather than just a video to shit on it.
    shown some positives and some negatives.

    ngl i think if this was anyone else that made this mod, people would have been more respectful and helped point out issues much calmer, rather than just hate on it. no mod is perfect on release

    Look, I'm going to say this politely: You have shit opinions. Stop talking. Literally every message you've ever sent on this website is negative.

    Also, I love how someone releases a mod, and the immediate response is "this is shit, delete this now". Really encouraging stuff. Definitely makes me want to mod on this website.

    Go ahead and make it better then. Also, leave this community as soon as possible please, your pure presence already damages the community. And with all the respect, you’re so weird for being proud about the fact that almost every person on this thread doesn’t like you.

    The thing I don't get about his mod reviews is when he's testing the damage model, he either picks a half tall barrier or a simplified traffic car as the target and bases his opinion on that. Of course the damage isn't going to look great with all the clipping, the same thing would happen with an official vehicle. He does one singular awkward crash, which he then determines his opinion on it. Plus, he doesn't even know what he's talking about when it comes to the damage either.

    I'll copy what I said under a comment on his video:
    Yes the damage model is pretty awful since it's just a modified meshslap, but I do agree that this video shouldn't have been made in the first place. It was a free mod that was constantly getting some improvements. I've seen much worse that have been posted on the forums, but guess what you can just ignore anything you don't like (paid, meshslaps, real life, automation mods etc). Sim could of still reviewed it properly by being honest on the damage part and giving feedback, or just not made this video at all. It just seems like more of an attack towards the mod creator as he did nothing wrong and now it looks like he cancelled the mod over all the hate.

    Not all mods are going to be high quality, which is alright as long as it isn't paid. There is a certain quality standard you should still meet when posting a mod on the forums/repo which this mod easily passes. The only thing the mod creator shouldn't have said is that the mod has no issues with the jbeam as that is not quite true.

    I second everybody else encouraging you to keep this mod updated here, even if you don't plan to release more mods on the forum. I was blindsided too by SimulatorAdventures' video given how good of a content creator he has been the last several years; even if you had been hounding him to review it (and that's hypothetical; I'm not saying you were) his response would still have been inappropriate. And I thought he had actually been made aware of the problem in the Beam community of mod authors nuking their work out of spite, so he should have known better than to risk that again - in the announcement on his channel he mentioned he wouldn't be reviewing paid mods of real-world cars anymore, which is likely in response to his review of the Alfa Romeo SZ, a mod that led to author Xerial removing all of his other mods after receiving intense criticism that it was too low-quality to be paid.

    If you had been scamming people by selling the mod with misleading claims of it being fully dev-quality, he would have been justified in calling you out, but free mods don't harm anybody regardless of how shoddy they are (and I've seen worse even on the forums). Also, even some well-respected paid modders aren't as timely as the community would like them to be (standards for these things are rightfully higher when mods are paid) when it comes to fixing update-created bugs and adding highly requested features, yet you came out on day one with a patch that solved major graphics issues, showing that the mod has potential if you keep at it. Don't see this bit of drama as a reason to leave the forums and remove your work out of spite - see it as encouragement to have the last laugh by continuing to improve the mod and developing it to a high enough standard that SimulatorAdventures will be forced to eat his words.

    criticism is important but not just saying "its good trust me". if there is room for improvement tell him
