Hey yall. I'm Pastry. For the last five years I've been developing CaRP, the first multiplayer career BeamNG mod. (completely custom! not related to the singleplayer BeamNG career mode!) While CaRP is my beloved baby, and has come ridiculously far in recent years (seriously, give it a try. i legit don't even know all the custom stuff we've implemented anymore), i've been cooking something else as a side project. Today I'm ready to share something I've always wanted to see done in Beam, and I'm happy to announce that it is, in fact, happening: dirt, scratches and dents, on any car, modded or not, and any livery. Load the game, play, and enjoy. Nothing to do, no magic liveries required to make the effect work, nothing. Right now there's a few features to it: adds dirt, grass, mud and the other terrain types to the body of the car mud has a special effect on top of the normal ones configurable distribution on the car (i like to have the front gather more dirt faster than the sides/rear, for example) configurable colors for each terrain (i want to make this more accurate to each surface in the future) scratches (when sliding) and dents (when impacting) each terrain type affects the car with different speeds (for the main dirt and the dust coating) crevices and edges take more/less dirt pretty much all of this is extremely configurable because i know we all have different tastes as this mod is still under heavy development, there are still a few downsides i need to tackle: i haven't managed to fully handle parts sticking wayyyy out of the car (e.g. some cars' doors, hoods, bootlids and such can look funky, extremely large tires can go outside bounds, etc. nothing TOO gamebreaking but it'd be nice to figure it out) the interior exclusion is finicky. it's hard to exclude it while also maintaining high fps and not leaving any gaps. but no one wants a muddy interior. the bump and scratch textures are not perfect. i had a very hard time finding good, free-to-use assets. i'm sure smarter people will send some my way eventually lol i REALLY wanted to find a way to make the tires REALISTICALLY gather dirt and debris and mud but i haven't figured it out yet. i don't know if this is possible. we might be stuck with disgustingly clear tire treads for a while longer this is all extremely exciting and i'm extremely happy to have come this far. i am very much against paid mods in any game (carp is, always has been, and always will be 100% free with zero in-game advantages for patreon supporters), but i'd really appreciate it if any of you could support this mod's (and carp's!) development by signing up to my patreon. your patreon support is what has kept me going with all these years of beamng modding! https://www.patreon.com/carpmp i am also going to be resuming work on another one of my madman experiments, which you might find there already as a free post thank you!
