version 0.3.7.X - feedback thread

You may want to put on a warning for everyone when the updates come out to check their graphics settings.

I'd imagine most people will do much better with performance if they just check that.

I haven't noticed a dip in FPS, but that's because my settings didn't really change!

 

Yes, my gripe is with the skidmarks ONLY. There are anomalies in my opinion on the actual tire physics but as you said it's a WIP and I appreciate you guys
getting into that. I play Beamng exclusively with all sounds OFF 100% of the time.

Whatever was implemented or changed in 0.7.5/6 was drastic. I thought 0.7.3 was awesome, great visuals, maps worked, skidmarks occurred at 30 mph and the
vehicle handling ( yes the Hirochi ), was REALLY nice. I haven't commented on the new cubemaps but I think they are TOO good. Yeah...that's right!...........
I SAID TOO GOOD. Vehicles now look like big polished Jolly Ranchers with wheels and artifact when smashed up real good (shadows). Pic soon.
Discount this feedback as ignorant or whatever but it is what it is.

 

Are tyres supposed to act like that?

Totally!

BTW I have an issue. Somehow I always get the engine stalled and there is no button to restart it as far as I'm aware, except for reseting the car. I just drive into mud with the gear set to N and it stalls, but sometimes it stalls for seemingly no reason without mud being involed. I imagine mud counts as water, but if it only covers the wheels, it really shouldn't stall the engine.
So... Any solutions?

 

When you change something in the editor and you hit Esc to change level or vehicle the "level has been modified in editor save?" comes up then you got to hit cancel to change vehicle or level so i was thinking if you could move it asking you that to when you hit quit in the new menu instead of when you hit Esc so it wont get in your way when you want to change something

 

I found out that, when hit with high speeds, barrels tend to grow and ''eat'' your car. Most of the time the game crashes when the barrel totally obliterates your car. I don't know if this is fixable or not by adjusting the jbeam, But I guess I'll just post it here.

 

Instead of having the industrial and port as two different maps, why not collaborate them so the industrial site is next to the port in the same map? I'm sure it would be nice

 

A bad performance even by disabling all graphics options.. difficult to play beamng now

 

Remember to disable PostFX - Press control-O to open up the dialog and disable all PostFX. The update didn't change much of anything graphically but the users settings got messed up.

 

I should really make a video but if i catch a corner of an object with the sunburst it causes my screen to go white and have to close the game. I can still access the menu but every level i load is all white no textures untill I restart. Happens when the car is going at least 60 mph i think.

 

I was using the Sunburst on East Coast and I lost a wheel and the wheel decided to do this:


It is very peculiar, probably something to do with the new tires.

 

Some odd behavior for it to make the video private

The sunburst ESC and TCS still appear to be broken

 

So after the 0.3.7.6 update, using the parts config removes all the ui apps along with the speedo etc. I can still play the game but i esc doesn´t work, so i have to use ctrl+alt+delete to exit the game. Parts config worked with the 0.3.7.4 update. Has anyone else experienced the same problem?

 

Not experiencing that issue here.

I did in 0.3.7.4 though, issue was me hitting escape to close the parts config instead of clicking the main menu button at the top. If you reopen parts config then click main menu, UI all returns to normal.
