Better idea.

Make regions simply a filter option in the vehicle selector. You should be able to sort by market.

 

Not just design changes but different engine options

 

On the topic of high speeds, DCTs don't appear to have friction implemented correctly compared to other transmission types.

"device.friction" is applied to "device.torqueDiff" and not "device.torqueDiff1" or "device.torqueDiff2", changing friction in the car's transmission jbeam had no effect. Only the latter 2 values contribute to "device.outputTorque1".

The vehicles generally need more drivetrain losses and the simulation of this aspect could do with some improvements here and there. Especially for automatics, perhaps both fixed losses and dynamic losses based on RPM could be implemented, similar to engines.

 

LED Emergency Lights still work after being removed from the vehicle.

 

The front passenger door handle on the sunburst has issues with skin compatibility. This issue is not present on the front driver door. This applies to all skins.

 

After a few test in the ETK856t, I have to say that the shiftlogic of the automatic transmission is smarter. I just did some driving in the map American Road, spawn at the Default location and drive on same mountainous road over and over again. Accelerate and decelerate very gently and obey the speed limit, which is 25MPH to 55MPH depends on road condition. In the automatic 856t, shift to D and drive, it upshift at 2000-2100RPM and downshift at 1400-1500RPM. In the manual 856t, I did shift up very early at about 1200(downhill) to 1400(uphill).
The result is 21.8mpg in the automatic and 20.6mpg in the manual.
Note:I use 6th gear most of the time is the 6MT ETK, but the 8AT never shift into 7th or 8th below 55mph. Thus, the only cause of the higher mpg in the automatic is the better shiftlogic.

 

Now that we have tweaked and updated car sounds, when will Automation cars get updated sounds?

 

umm what?

 

Found a bug on the broken bridge model in Utah.
One of the steel beams that spans the underside of the bridge just before the first column underneath has it's normals (faces) inverted.
There's also a few odd-stretching UV errors around the broken asphalt chunks on the surface of the bridge, but that's minor (it comes from reshaping the faces are the UV's were done). This exists in 0.15 and 0.16 (latest).

Link below to where the picture was taken.


Also, while I was looking around the ETK Driver Training map, I noticed a lot of edging out of place, likely due to changes in decal road rendering code.
Link below to where the picture was taken.


There's many little errors along the edging (terrain grass flat texture showing on the inside of the edging) that folks might not notice, and a lot of areas where the asphalt isn't blended, but that's getting picky (but it's such a nice map to have it spoiled by these small graphical anomalies). This exists in both 0.15 and 0.16 game versions.

Over-all, game is fun, still can't run my Los Injurus map in 0.16.x though (this only affects me and a few others). Can't seem to solve the issue. Using 0.15 for production for the foreseeable future. Turning off shadows seems to stop the lag, but shadows worked just fine on the last version (once a second, there's 0.5 seconds of lag, producting stop-go-stop-go-stop-go etc). Again map works fine in 0.15.x... Keeping fingers crossed hoping for a fix. For what it's worth I have an Radeon RX 480 and April 22nd drivers.
Edit: fixed dupe pictures.

 

Hopper issues
Somebody please try these out. Is it just my game that has air cooled uncookable engines?

- Engine cannot overheat without the exhaust pipe. No need for radiator. "Works" on both engines, stock or heavy, NOS or not.
- Removing windshield glass interferes with windshield bar accessory lights and front roll bar. 2, 3 or all of the lights will pop off and you may get short stubs, one bar and a stub, or both front bars. But never 4 lights and both bars without the glass. Also happens with latched windshield frame.

1. No radiator + exhaust
2. No radiator, no exhaust
3. Stubby roll bars and flying spot lights

 

A bigger problem is in an DCT vehicle, shifting from R to D drop RPM, leading to engine stall quite a few sometimes.

 

Have static crash when playing.

Drivers last.

You can try removing your configuration files first with the documents\BeamNG.drive\settings\game-settings files.


Also, could be something else:
That could be an issue with your display driver.
Go on GURU3D dot com and look up under the utilities / video card utilities section 'DDU' 'display driver uninstaller'
Download the software, then download a new version of your Nvidia driver from Nvidia website.
Run display driver uninstaller program,
restart machine,
cancel windows automatic driver installation (if that comes up at all),
then run nvidia device driver installer that you downloaded before(you may have to extract it, then run the installer program from c:\nvidia\driver_version???\setup.exe or something like that).
restart machine when prompted to
test out game!
Moderators will know better than me but this fixes problems for most people.

 

anybody else's Miramars skins glitching?

 

Looks like game have conflict with new drivers again
