right now the cam just zooms out to see both players and this "hopefully" upcoming update each player gets there own little section of the screen --- Post updated --- oh my god yes its horrible right now like me and my brother was on some map and just trying to drag race in a straight line it was so bad
i hope too but its very difficult to optimiz because as an example gran turismo know what hardware you have but beamng doesnt because every pc is differnt you get my point?
Yeah, I've used multiseat like once or twice ages ago. It's like the camera in the older Lego games, like Lego Indiana Jones where the camera just keeps zooming out so both players are on the screen. It really doesn't work well for most situations...
the split screen is usually on one computer so if that one computer is somewhat decent it would be fine also it seems like it is confirmed by tdev that splitscreen is coming although we dont know the release date of that yet --- Post updated --- go to game discussion 1 in the official beamng discord and press search beamng drive and search by user and type tdev then you can see all of their messages
Yeah I tried using multiseat to race with 2 or 3 people and the instant someone crashes or spins out you have to restart. Been wanting real split screen for a while
Looks like a sandstorm in Kuwait...but Imma let them work. Also, some of yall really confused splitscreen with multiseat. If we can assume splitscreen is going to be a thing, PS5 will surely have the specs to run it (we'll see with how many vehicles spawned, though), and some of y'all hanging on for dear life with your 1060TIs and whatever Ryzen 99cents you're running, probably not so much
I’m pretty sure that’s just some barrels or metal pipes or something. The part that could be a hood and roof don’t look entirely connected to me. If anyone has beam running, please check that spot and prove me wrong! I’d love for that to be another new car! If it is, it looks to be like a 50s pickup truck
I really hope the update is soon, cant wait to drive the ardente, Cherrier has been my most used brand next to ETK and Gavril. TBH we are a week off of August 3rd, it would be too good of an opportunity to waste for as that's when 0.3.0 (first public release *alpha*) came out. as much as I want the update. I feel like exactly 13 years from public release is too good to release a few days before.
Yeah, looked in game, and I'm pretty sure it's just the front of one of the oil derricks. We're all seeing mirages at this point lol.
Same for Calif. plate pack which is really great and won't be updated since it hasn't been since 2018. It's literally the only mod we have (to the extent of my knowledge) with the iconic black plate (how's that even possible).
If it's the one I'm thinking of then it's fine, there is still some backwards compatibility still and all the "basic" plate mods should still work fine (and none should cause any errors). However anything that was doing fancy logic on the html side will appear broken, usually resulting in the font positioning etc being wrong and the extra features missing (though this should not cause any lua errors though and the game will still work, the individual plates will just look wrong if equipped) I've tried to push for as much of it to still work and look right as possible, and everything should be possible to be recreated in the new system (which has decent documentation so modders shouldn't be going blind into it) but from what I've heard there's still a solid barrier where the html based extras just cannot be supported which is something to bear in mind.
tbh, i always have that feeling right before the updates (but sometimes i have the feeling that i want to play but want to do that after the update). And btw, the website works a bit slow on my end, is it for anyone else?
It needed a couple of minutes to load the forums on my end as well, does that mean there is some dev work currently happening on the website ?
