    Yeah well that's your opinion, if you pay 25$ for the game when you could've gotten it for a cheaper price during a steam sale then you would've saved a lot more.

    These paid mods are worth to pay for anyway, it's not like you get to just enjoy the free labor these modders has been doing to keep BeamNG a lot more fun with more vehicles or features.

    Plus it's not like we're ever gonna receive a vehicle like this from vanilla BeamNG at all anytime soon.

    You clearly have a problem with it then you can keep your thoughts to yourself instead of getting publicly shamed by others out there.

    Seems like both are correct: "When it comes to the words “alpha” and “alfa”, many people wonder which one is the correct spelling. The answer is that both are technically correct, but it depends on where you are in the world. In the United States and many other English-speaking countries, “alpha” is the standard spelling. However, in many European countries, particularly those that use the Romance languages, “alfa” is the preferred spelling."

    I think everybody understands to what I'm referring to, using the word alfa or alpha. I'm probably going to call it Beta for the next update, so this would eliminate the spelling confusion.

    Some people just don't seem to understand that American English isn't the only form of English.

    Well, sorry, man. Also, he said English-speaking countries, not just America.

    Ultimately, you have the option to buy, or not buy. It is your job as a consumer to evaluate the product to determine it's worth to you. If $6 isn't worth it for you, then simply don't purchase. It's been tossed around that you're paying for the game, and then buying DLC. It is extremely common to buy DLC for any game.

    Look as Microsoft Flight Simulator. Companies like PMDG have aircraft that sell for close to 100 dollars. This isn't anything new in the gaming world. It's not "Ruining" the community, it's upping the quality of mods because of someone can make a few dollars on something, they will actually make it and if the mod is high quality, it's worth a few dollars. Just my two cents.

    You're not joking back in the day
    I've spent close to 1,000 dollars on mods for fight sim

    But the quality was very much appreciated for the price
    You pay for quality and to play

    Same here man. PMDG, VRS, all money well spent. Not to mention the PC upgrades to get those extra few FPS. Thankfully I didn't have to spend money on Saitek, or trackIR because of the FSX Blue Angels.

    Point is, if you aren't willing to pay a few bucks for quality mods that you really enjoy, whats the point? To me, I have like 4 or 5 mods I truly enjoy. Other people like to download all of the mods and get bored of them in a day so it makes sense that they wouldn't want to spend money.

    You probably meant 6 cars not 60? It's the single core performance that matters for now, unless Beam optimizes the cpu multicore usage to use more cores for single vehicle, until this happens - this kind of complex vehicle is only for the high end-like pc-s.
    You could try the Vulcan rendering, It actually helps a lot - It takes some of the load away from the cpu and uses gpu more efficiently.
    --- Post updated ---
    Making a frame fork would mean that the frame needs to have certain nodes at certain places, but different vehicles have different frames, Ideally the frame fork nodes should be exactly the same distance apart as the frame nodes, then there won't be forces, that may lead to instability. The wheel lift doesn't rely on the node position because it only supports the wheel nodes with collision triangles and wheels have a lot of nodes, that's why the wheels don't clip trough, but a frame fork would just clip through the frame, if nodes are not connected. But it should be experimented.

    Ok, that's probably the Xeon multitasking capabilities, I started to have fps problems with 34 simple cars, although I can run the Jerr Dan at 60 fps (limited to 60)

    Okay, then the wheel lift makes more sense now. There would have to be a consistent node set up between every single frame in order to incorporate frame forks.

    Makes me wonder if maybe having adjustable frame forks to increase or decrease their width could make that feasible, but again you run into more keybinds, more nodes, more to go wrong, or more to cause performance issues, all to still have the same issue with not all the frames having nodes to attach to. Definitely good choice with the wheel lift. Still realistic and works across multiple vehicles.

    Forgive the crappy photos but this is by far one of my favourite mods for beamng now. If used properly, you can do actual recoveries now, along with towing.

    Same here. I've been waiting for this mod for years. I've always wanted winches, and tow trucks to pick up the messes I create haha

    Just out of curiosity, would you consider making a version with kenworth badges on it as iirc this is a kenworth t880 right?
