Update Speculation thread

And VW’s base US engine was a 2.5l I5 for years, also based on the Volvo design.

 

New Graphic inprovments!

 

I have to say the new Utah with the graphics improvements almost looks like a real photo, incredible!
Also, the ETK in the last comparison photo has different brakes, just something I noticed.
So all these improvements may not be in the next update, but I'm super eager for the final product

 

Does anyone know what this car is? I'm thinking Bluebuck or Barstow, but I'm not 100% certain.

 

99% Sure that's a Burnside, looks rounded enough to be.

 

New stuff in the blogpost looks nice; this game makes me so glad I built a proper PC back in August. Hopefully we will see some more types of paint finishes soon, that K-Series looks nice.

Maybe we’re overthinking. Because it’s just an I Series.

 

DEATH TO THIS POST!!

 

Is it just me, or does the fire look a bit different. Will it actually emit light now?

 

Better question, Will there be Motion blur?

 

https://blog.beamng.com/color-space-lighting-and-hdr-rendering/ Blog post has some new images of the Utah remaster.

This area got changed a bit:

 

To be honest, I don’t really like the new lighting on vehicles, as they seem like they are made out of non-reflectic plastic. You can see this effect on the K-Series and D-Series comparison pictures. On the other hand, maps look much better now.

 

Agreed, it reminds me of the reflection systems in the oldest versions of BeamNG (which I think was due to a standard white cubemap for reflections). The current lighting may not be realistic either, what with its practically mirror-like reflections in vehicles, but for me it's more appealing to look at.

 

It Just Work In Progress So The Final Version Could Look Different

Are the comparatives on vehicles using dynamic reflections? Because those mix things up a lot

 

They might just be using flat paint instead of chrome too. I also wouldn't be surprised if dynamic reflections will be removed from the game when the new lighting effects come.
I personally like the new look

Looks like West Coast USA is getting minor touch ups.
Unless the new lighting effects are so good that they reveal paint that was hidden before.

 

All I want to know is this. Will nighttime glass be fixed? This is the only confirmation I want.
