Announcing Automation & BeamNG.drive collaboration!

cool. now I can make poor body shells for the CRD.....

 

@devs

As a long time watcher of Killrobs letsplay series, I can conclude that he is very German.

Tdev is also German.

If their two products meet, will it be too German for mortals too handle?

 

Ja.

 

I have another question regarding Automation ⇒ BeamNG.drive exports. Will there be support for cars with hidden headlights?

For example, let's say somebody made a car modeled after the pre facelift Acura NSX. Would the car be able to have popup headlights?

 

Well, there are fixtures that look like closed popups, so sure. They'll never pop though.

 

Say, I have this small economical turbo engine here and it seems to be missing few bits, I guess it is bug of sorts, but when exporting to BeamNG, will there be intake bits or just engine as seen here?


I would think that routing intake pipes might provide to be slightly challenging automatically in this kind of scenario, but it should fit, there is gap in the frame


Here are parts that are not shown in car, IC, plenum, piping and airbox.

 

Waht about having multiple trims will it export all or will you have to do it one by one

 

So you are saying we need to make to cars one with lights up and one with them down

 

We don't do all the intake piping in the engine bay, either in Automation or in Beam, as in reality it'd all have to be packaged uniquely for every engine bay. If we had it all visible it'd stick out through a lot of the cars a lot of the time.
--- Post updated ---

Yep

 

Well, you could of course make them pop up in BeamNG, you just need to adjust jbeam, make sure lights are separate mesh, then add hydro for it or whatever means is a custom to be use for popup lights.

 

Sadly, but i think it's possible to make.

 

Should be, yeah, we just haven't had time to work on it yet

 

Gimme that 100% window tint

 

will the steam discount be continuously available, or only for a certain time?

 

One word, Amazing !

 

Am I the only one here that has a 500Mb update of BeamNG?

 

I have the update too, but no idea what it does.

 

It updates from 0.12.0.3 to 0.12.0.4 but I have no idea what this fixes/adds.
