    Ok. This is my first ever discussion thread, mainly because I hardly had problems but anyway. This all started a few days ago when I was just saving replay after ai script and used nograbber to do a blowover on the nurburgring mod and then once I pressed the grey square button to return to reality and then that's where it began. The UI was missing and I tried press alt u which hides and unhides it but that didn't work, and then I tried exiting the game and then spawning back in and then nothing was on screen, the screenshot is shown that it's just blank. Then I tried to clear cache but that didn't turn out well, and then I tried looking up this issue, and again, it didn't fix the issue. But then later I thought, I wonder when I deleted the old cache for like 0.27, 0.26 etc, that messed things up. Unfortunately I don't have a screenshot of that cause its been deleted for a few days now and its out of the recycle bin. So I thought, I had to delete it though because my storage was full, but im worried that might be the issue, I don't know. So I'm hoping someone from BeamNG will see this problem im posting but anyone is welcome to reply if you think you know what the problem is, and like I said before there are screenshots pasted in here so hopefully that'll answer your questions you'll surely have. Just an FYI I can play the game no problem its just......The UI is missing even if after press alt u.


    The screenshot with the D-series I was running safe mode and clearly the UI is there and the radial menu shows up. The screenshots with the Sacerest county skinned Bastion is my current state showing the issue. Neither the UI nor the radial menu shows up. OH and I also have screenshots of my mods and repo mods just to clear things up and see if it's about the mods I have or not.

    Did you check the UI Apps menu? Are your apps still there?
    Also if it works in safe mode, try to remove temporarily all your mods folder, then clear your cache and try again. If it works, then uninstall all the mods that you don't use. Having too many mods can break the game or slow down it, which can cause the UI to disappear.

    1. Thank you for the advice :)

    2. Yes my apps are still there when I go to "add app"

    3. how do I temporarily remove my mods folder with it allowing me to put it back after clearing cache?

    4. What kind of cache should I do? Standard or Deep?

    5. Its interesting how u said too many mods can break the game or slow it down. I always keep it 100 or like 96 which is my current amount, yes I know it can slow it down but I don't expect for it to break the game because i'm not over the limit. I do have experience going over a couple of years ago when I was first still a bit new to Beam and I highly regret having like 500 mods XDD. But still, I don't expect for it to break, but ok.

    Go where your mods folder is, then move it somewhere else, then the cache with standard mode.

    I think for stuff like this deep cache cleaning would be better than standard

    Isn’t it perhaps that you simply disabled the UI by pressing ALT-U ? Try pressing it again.

    Trust me i've pressed that command several times
    --- Post updated ---

    Ok i'll do deep cache cleaning. Thanks
    --- Post updated ---
    Sigh. I did deep cache & Standard cache cleaning but still nothing! I think im fearing the worst and have to uninstall but unless there is a way to backup the mods, configurations, & scriptAI, I don't want to do it but I guess I have to correct? :(


    Btw I changed the color of the D-series and saved it as default. Don't be fooled that I changed the color just now assuming that you think I was running in Safe Mode

    Maybe this will work?
    - Press Win Key + R
    - Type: %localappdata%
    - Open the "BeamNG.drive" folder
    - Move or delete the 0.32 folder (keep in mind that if you delete this folder, everything gets deleted, including mods, settings, custom configs, etc., so you might want to keep the 0.32 folder, but move it to the desktop or something to test)
    - Start the game and see if it starts properly (it will create a new userfolder)

    You can then move back any files from your previous 0.32 folder (settings, configs, etc.) back to the new userfolder (found by repeating steps 1, 2 and 3). I would suggest moving mods back one at a time, in case one of them causes that UI issue. If the UI issue appears after moving a mod back, it's likely that the mod you just moved back is the reason for the issue.

    GENTLEMAN I'M BACK IN BUSINESS BABY! The issue is FIXED! A friend of mine has BeamNG himself and he doesn't have this problem so he just transferred his ENTIRE folder to mine and thats what did it. :)
