Update Speculation thread

Torque 3d can't handle any more graphical improvements.

 

These devs have done more incredible things, I bet they can squeeze more out of T3D.

 

It word be too laggy. We will have to leave it as it is.

 

They're working on PBR (physically based rendering), among other things, if I remember correctly. It'll greatly improve the quality of materials.

I wonder when we'll get a real towtruck? Even if the van tow truck just got an update so the back lifts up and down.

 

A tow truck is coming eventually. There is a tow truck body for the D-Series that already exists in the game files.

 

I know, I can't wait for it.

 

Can we stick to the topic of this thread and stop turning it into a meme battlefield.

 

Holy sh*t, a tandem axle trailer in Beam that my Covet or Pessima can tow?!

 

Ok, back on topic. The new trailer looks awesome!

 

Doubt this means much, but back in early 2013, tdev said this: https://www.beamng.com/threads/beamng-and-consoles.446/#post-4892
Don't get to hyped up, read the post below.

 

In other places he's said "Not at all" citing various reasons. Consoles won't happen.

 

Times change, I guess.

 

Tdev has been updating a test resource recently. I wonder if that has to do with testing the mod auto updating system?


Also I doubt it means anything, but this image was attached to one of the updates, so I'll share it for your viewing pleasure.
Edit for clarity: the map is east coast no questions about that. It could be a scenario because we can see road barriers in the background. It's not important though.

 

Looks like ECA. Those could be poles for plowing, but they don't look right.

 

German road side markers in east coast...
Even some with orange reflectors for intersections.
those could be the same we have on ETK test map

 

Could it be italy? Or some german map we don't know of? But that doesn't explain it's resemblance to east coast?

 

The markers are probably to test stuff or for a update of the etk test center into a full map at some point wich would be nice to have
