    I was wondering if you (the beamng staff) can make an option that will turn off the shadows. I ask this because i have a weak graphics card(1 gb on 64 bits).If i play a game whit shadows on i get low fps(around 25-30 fps) but when i turn them off i get around 45-60 fps. This would be a great option for weak pc's.

    You can currently set the lighting quality all the way down to disable shadows and give a significant performance boost, as well as set it to low and have lower quality shadows which have a very small impact on the game.

    Alternatively you can set the quality right up to the maximum just in case you have some fps to burn :D
