Experimental Carbonworks Beam-E 2.0

Cool concept but it needs some work. The model is pretty rough around the edges with shading details and straight lines/hard edges not being done as best as they could. The driving though, the regen is far far too strong off the default and needs to be setup for more like you would want from a race car (basically just engine braking levels of slowing down until you actually hit the brakes) it shouldn't just lock the rear tires when you lift off the gas (id use the VRC Formula Lithium as a guide for how the car should drive/behave) . The TC and ABS dont really make sense as those are both not on the real car either. Lastly it would be nice if there was some more part options, stuff like 2 speed gearboxes that some teams/oems run, extreme motor options (plaid swap etc) and more tire and wheel options letting us mess around with the car a bit more.

Glad to see it back, ive been waiting to try this for ages. my one issue is whenever you brake you spin out. great mod otherwise tho

Latest update is incredible, very accurate to IRL and drives very similarly to the rfactor 2 counterpart. However; the car spins out in long corners, and the regen braking locks the rears very easily. Can't really knock this down a star for that though, as it's experimental and this is the first real mod that does a good job of replicating electric racing cars.

Good mod, its nice that i got to see all the progress and do part of it!

Finally marked as unsupported on the repo. Good. Mod has been broken or undriveable since just after its last update. Don't act like you can support a mod for years if you can't handle a single game update or one (1) tyre handling bug across the span of 4 months.

Good mod but it is currently broken and crashes my game when I try to spawn it.
Really looking forward to seeing this come back and get more skins. :)

Very high quality and fast but the tires are translucent for me and the top speed is a little lacking, i suggest adding a high speed engine variant for long tracks or just editing existing one

Was great before the update, now after the tires have broken textures and the slippery problem was only solved only like 20%. Every time I try and change something it also crashes my game. Same problem with your other mod as well. Hopefully these problems are fixed properly

the tire texture is broken after the update, and the grip feels pretty much the same, i hope this gets properly fixed because this thing looks awesome, but its sadly undrivable

From the update, the tire textures are just gone sadly and it seems to have the tiniest less more slippery which is kinda better but still is very slippery. Overall the car is a tiny bit better just needs the grip fixed still. (i redownloaded the mod entirely)

Idea is really great! Love it.
I guess it need wings aerodynamic settings fix, because now it's undrivable, wings are broken and there is no room for some fight in races, cause you fighting with car already.
And, maybe PBR for tires or something like that will be cool.

Can you improve the tires? And plz it spins out easy!

Pretty cool addition to the F4 mod along with your take on F3 stuff but this thing has way TOO MUCH power and NO grip. If there was a texture for "NO GRIP" tires, this would have that texture. Still pretty good though.

My excitement for a FE car finally making it's way into BeamNG was kind of shattered. It's got zero grip and zero brakes- and I mean ZERO brakes.

Yes, I know the IRL FE cars aren't the best in the grip/braking department, but not to the degree that this has. IRL FE cars also use regenerative braking to aid it in slowing down, so maybe that could be implemented as well? IIRC some electric cars already in Beam have a pseudo-version of that.

RWD mode is just constant wheelspin and the rear tires like to randomly puncture during said wheelspin.

The model looks amazing though, and I think it might fit into the lore-friendly mods.

I do see loads of potential and I look forward to see this mod evolve and improve over time. Keep up the work, OP.

Good mod, but unfortunately the front motor does not show up for me, and when I try to set up a custom config, my game breaks.

spins out easily. but it's quick

fantastic!

for all the people that are complaining about the brakes or the wheelspin, irl formula e cars have 0 brakes and the grip is not that good aswell

It likes to spin out!!!
