I'm getting these errors when I try to spawn the mod i'm working on. "unable to decode JSON: vehicles/Camaro/Body.jbeam" and "JSON decoding error: lua/common/json.lua:74: Expected dictionary seperator ':' or '=' instead of ' '" ' near line 239, "beams": [
...something not right nearly the line 239. Or It can be also a..... try to check if at the end of jbeam there is the right final } sign. I remember when I spend to much time to find error in my first jbeam... it's not almost easy... If you don't found, let me try to investigate the purpose of this error!
Try with the file I checked, as you can see on the screenshot, the jbeam work fine without error msg!
alright, i'll update my file with yours then try and spawn it in-game again --- Post updated --- Works fine, other than my body dosent render... any idea why that is? and also the model kinda spins around on its own.
in flexbody section of your jbeam the mesh name is ["CarBody", ["1"]], but in blender mesh name is "Body". Simply replace CarBody with Body in the jbeam and it will be ok!
A few of the nodes are swinging out of their places, i'm assuming this is because I don't have something done correctly in the jbeam, but otherwise its looking pretty good.
Excellent! U have a lot of courage to start from scratch a complete vehicle for BNG. I respect that, I starting like this with BNG modding. I know how exciting it is, but it's a path that never ends .... If I can suggest something to you so that you can save lot of time! I found a good tutorial on this forum, which explains how to easily import your new project into an already existing project from official BNG devs vehicles. https://www.beamng.com/threads/tutorial-viewing-your-mesh-on-an-existing-vehicles-jbeam.41130/ For a Camaro, a perfect starting base with a Barstow or a Moonhawk. Like this, you have directly nice working mod that you can totally adapt and evolve to your model. --- Post updated --- Nodes swinging because they are not attached with 3 point minimum or more to a beam
if you want to follow my progress this the the thread I started https://www.beamng.com/threads/errors-in-the-jbeam.51314/
I would probably change the title of the thread since (even with the solved) looks like you are still having jbeam issues, probably just me.
I guess so, sorry, now you can keep the thread how ever you want, i don't care. now go work on that Camaro and stop me from bugging you
im working on it and talking to you at the same time, also, its fine, the same could be said for me since i've been on a few of your threads
Feel free to ask me if you encounter issues that do not seem to be resolvable ;-) Good time with your modding project!
why didn't you point out that I accidentally linked this thread? Here's the correct link: https://www.beamng.com/threads/making-my-first-mod-will-probably-need-help.51277/
