    Hello, I have had beamng for awhile but recently noticed that any map I install seem to load everything backwards, for an example, ATE's Freestyle Island 1.1 will spawn in the stands backwards, and pretty much everything else. This seems to be the case with any map that has stands, fences, barriers, or anything else that isn't the map itself. I have emailed beamng drive and they say it's the authors fault. I don't believe it because they always upload YouTube videos about them and they have good reviews, as far as I know I am the only one with this issue. Another thing worth noting is the map "The southern California Hwy RC8" I have installed used to work, but I tried it today and while loading it said something about a file missing and when I spawned in nothing loaded except water. I thought maybe the issues I am having may be related to each other. I have verified the files and no problems were found and I cleared the cache.

    Sure of that? Or it said it could depend on the map, since it's mods?

    Can you post some screenshots or a video of what you are seeing?

    Beamng drive said and I quote "Hello Ty,

    Please note that content you are downloading from the website is made from other BeamNG users, no the developers of the game.

    This is more likely a problem related to the maps themselves. But it may also depends on your graphical settings (ie. Lowest settings would make most object appears as 2D more closer to you)
    Could you take a screenshot of one of these and send it over?
    (Image must be smaller than 1MB)"
    I play on the best possible graphic settings so I have no clue what they are talking about 2d settings, but it came from them. The video I am talking about is prolly most notably ate's freestyle map, his video is on the download page but maps that YBR have tested in his videos always seem to be messed up when I try to play them. All of my games on my 2nd hard drive got corrupted including beamng drive but I have a copy of beamng drive on my laptop, I will see if it works as it is the original copy that I bought. I will get you a screenshot when I get the game back on my pc and reinstall the maps in question.
    --- Post updated ---
    Alright I got the game installed, again. I have 2 screen shots for you, what it should look like.....and what mine looks like...

    Many games switches distant object in 2D flat images for Performance reasons (technically called 'billboards'). That can also depend on the graphical settings.

    But your issue is not that, it's different.
    What's your game version? (Written in the main menu)

    IIRC that happens when one tried to use a map made with a newer game version, on an older version.

    If your game is not up to date, see here:

    You are right, my version is 0.9 something, I just emailed beaming drive because humble bundle said they didn't have records of my purchase so it won't let me update it. Hopefully they can figure that out lol.
