The basic map is mostly done, I will just add some more tracks here and there but probably no more "landmarks", except if something presents itself.. I am thinking of adding some missions but to be honest I never play the BeamNG missions myself so I am not entirely sure what to add. Will probably do some sort of Beta testing soon before release. Most of the mining in the area was surface mining, so there aren´t a lot of tunnels around. Still I am also thinking about it but I am not really sure how to do it atm. Maybe just with the Utah mine assets, I shall see if it fits or not..
Yes sure, I will set up a discord server for that. Probably even before beta testing to discuss some general features of the map I am not sure about. Also if someone is motivated to join in on doing some missions and time trials that would be highly appreciated. I have no experience creating missions and this will probably take me a while.
As I said, I'm open to testing. Unfortunately, I know nothing about Missions/Time Trials, so I would be of no use when it comes to that.
Sure, but more like rally dakar, not pikes peak. Rather similar to Johnson Valley I´d say, maybe a bit faster and longer distances in the desert vs rather slow and rough trails on the coast and in the mountains.
Update: Spawn locations done. Map markers and automatic route finding/ai roads done. Work in progress on the missions. Lots of progress reworking some of the existing roads and adding new ones in.
Big Update: The mines are now explorable. Lots of dark tunnels. There is a quarry that has been turned into a squatter village. I tried to give this part of the map a slight Mad Max/Fallout feel to it. Of course such places don´t exist in the real namib desert but its a video game, so why not? they are now . a bit too dark and narrow for rallying but great for exploring.
If you make this white or sand coloured it would actually fit very well as a park ranger vehicle on this map. I will have to do some more trails on this map and some crawling sections before release..
Finally an overlander build makes sense. --- Post updated --- Hello everybody, I will soon be running a beta test of this map. You can join my discord for more information: https://discord.gg/jpxfsHDC7P
