Download the latest version from the BEAMNG FORUM HERE Version 1.08 is available now... Turns out this is only an issue when loading for the first time ↓ [This release has issues with 3 challenges that should be fixed with the next update. Dirty Golf: isn't spawning the ball. Car Pool: isn't spawning one of the billiard balls. (likely the same issue)] Banger01: Doesn't finish loading since BeamNG 0.37 update, but was still WIP anyway. (THIS HAS BEEN FIX FOR THE NEXT UPDATE) Hi. This is my first map... It was a "learning map" but I think it has turned out ok with some work and tweaking. Future maps will be less "cluttered" but this one does have quite a variety of things to do on it. My goal in making this was to learn as many aspects of map making in BeamNG as I could and I did as much as possible from scratch, starting with a blank map and creating terrain textures and so on. All assets are either BeamNG assets or things I've created. I do not, and will not, copy other people's work. Ok or not, it's just not my thing. If people want to modify or use some of what I've created, I have no problem with that, just don't take credit for work I've done and a little mention would be nice. Have fun! Scroll to the bottom for current update information...
There was an issue with maps showing up in Freeroam. Seems I had "isAuxiliary": set to true and should have had it set to false. Update: The file has been fixed and re-submitted and I'd like to thank Butch13 Gaming for finding and pointing out the issue. GG!
It won't let me delete my previous review, so I have added another. Not sure if a mod can remove my previous one at all, please?
It's all good (I'm not concerned about ratings). I'm just happy it's working now. Thanks for feedback
If you put the missions folder into a new folder called "gameplay" within the mod, the missions will show up automatically when it is installed.
Oh crap! Really? Good to know. I will make note of that now for the next update. I figured there must be a way to do that. Thought maybe in the "Level" folder, but that makes sense. Thank you. I missed it by just a tiny bit too - lol. What goes in the "Mod Info" folder?
The mod info folder you can delete, they add it back when you upload the mod to the repo, at least that’s what they did when I posted an update to my mod.
Next Update: I think something changed with the last game update because now I'm struggling to make some of the times I've set to Gold without modifying the vehicle a little. So, I have made changes to the roads in the Rally Race "There and Back". Specifically made 6 of the jumps easier to clear with the vanilla cars, and may also adjust the gold times on some... My main goals with this map is to learn the aspects of creating maps and races with BeamNG.drive's World Editor and to keep everything on this map possible to do with the default game so new players & beginners can play everything on it without need of modifications. I disable all mods while working on the map to ensure everyone can do all the challenges. I'm also trying to offer the use of any vehicle for as many challenges as possible. (some challenges only allow medals for one or the other). If anyone has suggestions for fine tuning things or things they would like to see on future updates, please let me know and if it works for me I'll do what I can. I have several ideas for some "Silly Games" coming soon (if I can work out some logistics). I hope to update this map at least once a month. More often if there are things that feel more urgent.
V1.02 (yea I know my version numbering is goofy - should probably be 0.02) I just submitted a big update that should make this map much better with some fun new stuff. I fixed the file structure (I think) so missions should automatically show up now without having to move the missions folder) Reworked all the roads making several jumps easier and adding decals and navigation to ALL the roads. Added a new Speedrun Rock Distance course. Added a multi-route blacktop drifting park for beginner to intermediate drifting. Added some new races and challenges. Added a dirt course for Banger Races (This is still a very raw WIP)
V1.04 - Released. Has a new "Mud Park" area with a series of mud and dirt hills and rutted roads. This area also has 5 new progressively harder mud races. There are also two semi-hidden entrances in this area to a new "Grotto Crawl" course that runs under the upper section of the park. Also reworked the Drift Park a bit and changed the challenges for these areas. Coming in V1.05 - A single hole experimental Golf Game. This is working good right now and is fun to play, but it is technically a "delivery mission" where you just have to get the ball to the hole. In the future I'd like to add some scripts to improve the scoring and maybe set some different rules...
Version 1.7 is available now in MODS I messed up the file structure in V1.05 - V1.07 is the current Beta update This is the first Beta release of the map and has a variety of challenges in it including: NEW this version: Silly Games... DIRTY GOLF: An experimental Golf hole (use the car to hit the ball down the fairway avoiding sand traps and into the hole as quickly as you can. CAR POOL: A scaled up Billiards table. Use the car to hit the balls into the pockets as quickly as possible. PLINKO CARNAGE: Distance jump game. Jump up into the "Plinko" game trying to land in the farthest slot. GO-KART circuits. Outdoor Go-Kart / small cars tracks with three challenges of various difficulties. The map also has: 6 Rally Races (circuits and point to point challenges) 3 Road Courses (Hi-speed road course - Drift circuits - Go-Kart circuits & a drift freestyle area) 3 Drift Challenges (mostly for beginners learning drifting but also good for testing vehicles and adjustments) 7 Truck Races (an endurance race over various terrains - a rock "distance" speed challenge - & 5 mud races with progressive difficulties). 6 Rock Crawling (missions in 3 different crawl areas). 7 Collection Challenges (4 progressive difficulty mazes - 2 sand dune collections - 1 challenging Rock Crawl collection 1 Dirt circuit park (still WIP with AI race because the AI isn't challenging) The map has a lot of variety because it's basically my first map where I was just learning how to do a bunch of different things. For the most part, everything on the map is finished and playable with the exception if the dirt track area. Any constructive feedback is appreciate.
Version 1.08 is available now... New additions are: Made the inside of the Dirt Park area all Crawler friendly. Smoothed out some of the dirt roads in Dirt Park. Made some of the landing areas in the Rally Dunes race smoother. Made the Shipping Container Checkpoint markers permanently on the outer sand of the map so it can be raced in Multiplayer servers more easily. Cleaned up a bit of the terrain fixing some "floating" trees. Thinned out a few trees to keep it more "framerate friendly".
New for next update: (coming soon) Fixed Banger01 "Dirt Park" Race, and changed the AI and paths bit. "Dirty Golf" works but for some does not spawn the ball the first time the map is loaded. Made "Plinko" game easier by adding a longer approach ramp "Car Pool" game works but for some does not spawn the front ball the first time the map is loaded. Made a set of wood signs to mark areas better. Added an "Evade" mission (escape from the cops in what ever car you enter the challenge with) Made a few fixes to the terrain (floating trees, more detained texturing, etc...)
