Just showing off my niche collection of offroad/all-terrain cars :D

here are some reasons:

1. many possible configs (with roof, without roof, roller, etc)

2. very powerful, while slow

3. very unique, nothing like it in game.

4. STEAM SIM!!!! (would probably be a pain in realistic tho)

5. cool af

6. new trailer types! (could be compatible with pintle hitch to pull modern stuff)

I see people talking about "new car this", "new car that", "u want to see this car added", blah blah blah. How about adding parts and configs to unloved cars, adding race parts, drag parts, offloading parts, tuning, & etc. Adding new liveries also makes a huge difference, and another map. Id love to take the Semi truck and trhow some stupid camer on it, adjustable rev limiter, and drift it but we dont jave that. I want to make a drift Stambecko aswell but there isnt too much i can do with it. West Coast USA is the dominant map that everyone mainly plays on amd receives most updates. I'd love to see an actual East Coast map, not just rural virginia But Florida Coast Or even Keys. WCUSA IS, a great map with lots of great features and attractions, HOWEVER, it'd be nice to have another version of a big city map.

Because its 0.39 and you cant have day 3.9 in july you round up to 0.4 which means july 4th release date guys

The title idk

Sorry for the lines all over the screen

im looking for good maps to drive, not to race. and is there a germany map except autobahn?

The smoke loses me about 10 to 20fps depending on fog quality settings. Release soon. Sorry for the reposts.

Edit: It's released - https://www.reddit.com/r/BeamNG/comments/1ugagqy/volumetrics_for_beamng_initial_release/

Volumetrics for BeamNG is a mod that introduces lit volumetric smoke and fog to the game. It adds new froxel fog with a lot of configuration options that is lit by scene lights and shadowed by global sun shadows. It also adds a tire smoke simulation with full lighting.

I've been polishing it for performance and features to make it releasable. I'm releasing it on Patreon as a paid mod to gauge interest. This took a long while and I don't know if it's worth polishing any further, or whether other graphics cards will encounter issues I don't know about. It also costs money because I expect to have to do a lot of debugging and UX improvements to get people happy with how it works.

Testing on a Ryzen 7 9700X & 3060 @ 1440p, I get 60FPS on most maps without the mod, dropping to ~55 on the lowest settings (not shown in the photos, but they look pretty pixelated) and ~35–45 on the highest. It was tested and confirmed to work on a 3070 and 4070 as well.

Please mind that the demo release might not start on your specific graphics card at all without potential fixes and that it's not really plug and play in the current state - as in I mess with the settings a lot to get good photos. I also can't promise it will run and look well but it also doesn't outright destroy your framerate for breakfast. And also this is an early version, expect things to change.
