0.25 with Vue UI, smooth and responsive. I want to believe.

Ok, I wanted them to call the mid engined covet the MEHS, mid engined homologation special, but someone said they wasn’t serious enough. But Mr. Turbo, that’s comedic, AND serious. Good job devs

I can see the ads... "Mr. Turbo - For Serious Fun"

I will be sad if there is no naturally aspirated V6 option though

Its probably a homologation special, so I wouldn't expect any advertising for it.

god damn it looks good.

It's not MR as in Mr lol, it probably stands for mid-rear-engined or something

That or mid-engine rear-wheel-drive, same difference .

So this approach may also create new sounds for engine configurations currently not featured in the BeamNG lore (Inline-2s, V4s, V12s, Flat-6s/-8s/-12s, V16s, you name it).
Although I find the existing car sounds nice enough. The current American V8 sound may not really fit the 50s/60s/70s OHV V8s (despite its low idle at those applications) and the 10s/20s OHV Bastion V8s (despite being great-sounding when coupled with the Stage-3 Supercharger on the 6.5 V8) but it does fit the inbetweeners - the 80s/90s/00s/10s Gavril SOHC 4.5/5.5 and Soliad 4.4 engines.

On that note, five points:

The Gavril 423ci OHV V8 kept going as the 6.9 in the 80s/90s/00s/10s D-/H-Series, the Roamer and the Grand Marshal. It can have a more refined sound in these cars while the old ones (50s/60s/70s) can have all those classic sound effects of their era.

The Bruckell/Soliad V8s can sound differently from the Gavril/Burnside ones because it's natural that 2 engines of the same type coming from 2 different manufacturers can sound different from one another. So the Gavril SOHC 4.5/5.5 V8 engines can keep the V8 sound we know (it fits them really well after all) while all other V8s (excluding the Bolide V8s, which are flat-planes and already have their own distinctive sound) can get different sounds.

This is also true of the Inline-4s, the Inline-6s and the V6s. The current Asian Inline-4 sound fits all old (60s/70s/80s/90s) Japanese Inline-4s but the Bruckell 2.2/2.5 and the Ibishu 2.5 of the Hopper are a bit too large for having this sound and also, the modern ETK 2.0 gas Inline-4 should sound more refined. Also, if an old ETK Inline-4 comes, it too should sound a bit different, more metallic than the buzzy Japanese Inline-4s.

The current Inline-6 sound is amazing for all ETK Inline-6s but the Gavril 232ci/4.1 Inline-6, the Bruckell 244ci Inline-6 and the Hopper 4.0 Inline-6 should sound a bit colourless because of their large displacement (the slightly rough engine idle sound is spot-on on both Gavril 232ci/4.1 and Bruckell 244 Inline-6s though because it's characteristic of their large displacements, so it must be kept as it is).

The V6 sound as is fits the 90s Ibishu Pessima 2.7 V6 perfectly but the Bruckell V6s should sound differently, both from the Ibishu V6 and from one another Bruckell engine, because the 10s Bruckell Bastion 3.5 V6 is a more modern engine than the 80s 3.3/3.8 Bruckell engines.

New sounds would be spectacular but the old sounds and the one we have now will be missed.

I'm now wondering if a RHD version for JDM and British specs will be included.

Mr as a mister and MR as mid-rear is a perfect example of an ambiguous word. You are definitely both right.

Vito324 · May 4, 2022

So do we have any idea when update 0.25 will come out? Anybody have a guess?
