Strange question

Hello,
This is a really strange question ive had on my mind for a while,
I have an early alpha version of beamng on my desktop (0.3 to be exact) and i was wondering if it was easier to mod back then than it was now because im thinking of making some buggy thing for that version then porting it to 0.24.
Strange question but im just curious.

 

Well.. when me and salim were porting the vehicles from the 0.3 pack the worst thing we ran into was the h series not having any textures from the remaster and a few no textured windows on the cars,
The porting is almost easy and isnt much of an issue

 

That's because they have their own textures, models, etc., while a lot of mods use base game texture to reduce file size. That's why no textures happen on older maps like the Endurodrome, where the first industrial remaster made the old texture disappear. There's a lot more to it i think but that's one of the reasons.
