    Hey there, I am really missing the "light up the whole dashboard" when I turn on the lights in any vehicle.
    Why isn't this in the game? Can I somehow make into the game as a mod? I would love to, I am just wondering how. Just one picture and the game already feels 100% more realistic:D

    Thanks!

    Here is the pessima. As you can see, the game would look so much more realistic. Can I somehow make this reality? I don't understand LUA much, but would it be possible to make interior light map, just like gauges and assign it to headlights?

    I think its possible with glowmaps like on the gauges , if you take a look into the honda del sol or the toyota celica trd you can see that they have implemented the whole dashboard with working lights but I would also really want to know how to do this ...

    its because if you notice there, in both pictures the backlight is on. Most new vehicles have the backlight always on regardless of headlight state, then for some reason all BeamNG vehicles do this too.

    If you are reffering to the H series, I forgot to mention "before with lights turned ON". The thing you talk about is in the Sunburst for example

    *EVERY* vehicle in BeamNG does this, you missed that important point. Go flood the engine, then the H series dash turns off.

    I think he means that it Would be much more realistic if the parts in Middle would also light up if you turn the Light on like Radio , clock and all that Stuff over the gear stick ..
