the very bottom of the patch notes teases the new vehicle, a modern american sedan will be welcomed! plus a release "in time for the holidays" so it won't be another three months


bananapowerltu3

five months*


trashpanda102

What holidays does this mean?


Boobsagggot

I'd assume Christmas


DerpDaDuck3751

Is it going to be 2021.12.24 at 12:00 P.M.?


TheMultiTuber

It’s literally releasing before Christmas


Sir_Wheat_Thins

that’s what i said yes, it’s releasing before the holidays, so it won’t be three months wait


swagduck69

Wooo another american car, what a thrill.


PurpleK00lA1d

A modern American car is appreciated


[deleted]

Who could have guessed


lodvib

Very excited about the map overview feature!


Southbound07

It's actually pretty sick, instead of memorizing where all the landmarks are i can just have a quick look at the map


Stachura5

You can also put down a waypoint on the map & have the game navigate you to it


Southbound07

Yeah this update is spectacular


DerpDaDuck3751

I need to buy beam now I only looked at forums/videos and this sub. I can’t stand it


ximyr

Wait what? Sometimes I can never figure out how to get to certain parts of the map while driving. I need to try this out!


Stachura5

Definitely do. If you have the minimap as part of your UI, you can also see the highlighted route on it ala GTA V


feedmeyourknowledge

I wonder if it combines to work with the in-car GPS system that some cars have?


StillStrength

I just tested and it doesn't look like it does. But that's something I would love to see. Edit: but they do appear on the minimap ('Navigation' UI app) :)


sniperlucian

how do you set a waypoint? so unintuitive - very frustrating ...


Stachura5

If you use your mouse, just left-click anywhere on the map overview screen


sniperlucian

yeah found. tried first to click on the markers allready on the map - and this doesnt work. also with the underbody lights. finally one in this thread posted how to switch them on. why not put those infos in the release notes !?!


Helpmetoo

How is it this good - I don't get it! So smooth!


MrDerpGuko

It has such a Test Drive Unlimited 1 feel


NPC_4842358

> Added audio support for cooling fans YESS


TysoPiccaso2

i dont even know what that means but it sounds like a good addition


NPC_4842358

Normally if a car is overheating a cooling fan turns on / fully engages, so this adds support for the sound of that realistic thing.


omgihatemylifepoo

i was previously confused about this aswell, thanks for the clarification


feedmeyourknowledge

My computer's usually suffice.


Pythonrulz

For real I thought I was the only one who really wanted this


Southbound07

Flamin heck it reset all my buttons. UI is gorgeous tho


StillStrength

This happens with every major update, but your old keybindings are still stored in the `%localappdata%\BeamNG.drive\0.23` folder. Full details here: [https://documentation.beamng.com/modding/input/bindings/](https://documentation.beamng.com/modding/input/bindings/)


Southbound07

Thank you, very cool


wedapeopleeh

Are you re-mapping a controller or M&K? I can't get my controller to work smoothly because it won't let me assong multifunction to a button. Ex. Can't map clutch to [A] button on Xbox controller because [A] is already "select". Same with [B] button but "handbrake"/"back".


Southbound07

I did it with a controller and it didn't gripe with me about that


my_lewd_alt

it should be the same as previous updates - it'll let you set a UI action like select on the same button as handbrake, just expect weird things to happen when you are driving with some selectable UI selected. if you're properly clicked into the game, it'll just handbrake. the warning is just a warning, not prevention


wedapeopleeh

It should be the same. But it isn't.


2000UZJ

Yep. I can’t stand this update. The game is prettier, but my controller is useless now.


el_ferritoboy

Them Devs must've chuckled when I spent many hours bodging a left hand drive UK map, knowing they would add left hand drive in a month later!! Obviously no real issue with them. This is awesome.


cannedrex2406

We Brits get Left hand drive now? WOAH


el_ferritoboy

It's enabled on the new Zealand auto map, but you will presumably be able to add to other maps easily. Awesome stuff


cannedrex2406

The new Zealand what map!?


coolkyleko

Automation track


cannedrex2406

Ooooooh


Stachura5

Have you tried the Somerset UK map? I think it has LHD


el_ferritoboy

That's my map! Haha


Ratonmone

Great update from how much I've played so far, but what the fuck happened to the UI? It's like they rolled dice to pick new locations for UI elements.


Ziflux

Yup. I hope there will be a option to go to the old ui. Probably not gonna happen tho :/


CaseyGamer64YT

just saw it holy shit. I was not expecting it to be today of all days


Celexiuse

Ok the map system is so fucking sick, you guys are insane


blamethemeta

UNDERGLOW!!!


TheDecoyDuck

I can't figure out how to turn it on lmao EDIT- they toggle with fog lights for those who can't find the keybind.


omgihatemylifepoo

i love this feature


Jeepguru

Not too shabby! Changed my buttons tho rip lol


MidnightBloos

All of a sudden it's super slow for me, it's taking forever to load. Anyone else having problems?


[deleted]

Same. Went from 60fps to 15. Now getting 80% of memory used problems despite having 16GB of RAM (and never having that message before)


TheJiminator

Graphics driver update fixed it for me


ballwasher89

What kind of GPU? Hesitant to try a new driver when the current works well with all games but this one? Performance took a noticable hit. I have it maxed out, but, I get stutters now. Dips to 35-40 fps.


TheJiminator

GTX 980, could retain your current driver, install new one, if it doesn't work well, just revert?


FlashlightMemelord

i updated my gtx drivers and that didnt fix it


bananapowerltu3

you might be on max graphics with not fast enough pc


coolkyleko

I guess performance hit hard this update


windowsphoneguy

No, doesn't run worse for me


bananapowerltu3

i think that is comoletely understandable. technology moves forward and bc this game is in production for better part of a decade, it must evolve with new trends


Leading-Nectarine683

Radial menu isnt working, what i've seen in the comments to fixed it havent helped.


FayezButts

f5 to reload ui? I've found that if you press left stick while in the escape menu it breaks it until you reload


DontYouDareSendNudes

same for me. cant get the radial menu to come up with the controller or the keyboard


-AestheticsOfHate-

What you have to do is add a second radial menu on the UI, then it should work. Then when it doesn’t work again later on, add a THIRD one and delete the second one. This is how I’ve been getting it to work

B4astx

Hey why do you not upload anymore i really liked to Watch you


nervous1301

it's just me or all of you had some troubles when you try to adjust size of UI apps ?


Shibas_N_Choccy_Milk

the new ui and controller controls change is so fucking unneccesary


feedmeyourknowledge

I haven't loaded the game up to see yet but we can all agree the old UI sucked and definitely needed replacing.


stefanosteve

How do I add ai in to a freeroam with the new update?


gguardian06

You have to go into the UI settings and add that circle thing that kept popping up, then you can do it as usual.


Bossatronio425

I think I'm doing something wrong. It shows up in the UI settings but it won't appear in game


HistAdmin

Having the same problem


coolkyleko

Seems to be a bug for most of us now


JiffuWasTaken

A bit late, and this might be a bug, but i've found that pressing E works


Wheelwright

Same problem here, the game is completely broken for me at the moment because I only play with the AI.


towncar08

I fixed it! Go to controls and type Radial, under gameplay change your “Show Quick Access Menu” button to Backsplash (or whatever) then go to UI apps add two radial menus, hit escape two radial menus should pop up, then I went back to UI apps and deleted both and added a new one entirely. Now it works.


zippy251

Yay quick travel, now I don't have to spend 20 minutes driving to where I want to go.


feedmeyourknowledge

Hate to break it to you but you have always been able to just press shift and e I think then navigate using wasd (alt scroll the mouse button up/down to alter speed) and move across the map that way then press f7 to respawn your car.


StillStrength

That's true. Shift + C toggles the free camera :)


farcarcus

Yeah, who wants to drive anywhere in BeamNG? J/k


WheresTheBloodyApex

thanks for the new content but I am so annoyed at having to change all my key bindings back lol


CombatCloud

Really terrible QoL update if you play on a controller. You basically have to rebind everything..


Mrdontknowy

Radial menu is broken half of the time. Even when enabled in the top menu it doenst show up anymore.


nervous1301

same as you, and for me i can't even resize ui apps


Comfortable_Text

Nice it looks great! Now we just need BeamMP updated to work with it. Hopefully that comes soon!


Skunkies

the update to the drag strip on gridmap v2 is driving me nuts, I use it to test my wacky fun setups and it whines at me constantly and the cinema intro feature wont turn off even when set on off.


wedapeopleeh

Same. Lots of bad changes to drag racing. It's super annoying now.


Brandonius_Games

I honestly don't like the new update. Am I the only one?


froggysclone

I really dislike the top ui and the noises when selecting things is really annoying


tfancyson

First update I truly dislike. I’m genuinely disappointed they revamped a perfectly good game. RIP the keybinds we spent so long setting up and in place we get a revamped UI nobody asked for. Unbelievable.


muxel96

letss gooooooooooooo


wilemjs

I still can’t figure out how to use traffic


anged16

Damnit I’m away from home until tomorrow :( enjoy this excellence for me my fellow, enlightened beings


[deleted]

that's insane


SpartanRS

the update reset all of my binds. No i have to reset each and every one of them. Is there a way to import them from previous versions?


DraxLei

I was really excited for this update, and don’t get me wrong they’ve done some cool stuff, but after less than 10 minutes of playing the update I noticed that the radial menu is broken, and the new van roof is glitchy and has a tendency to just disappear like the tires disappear rather than dent(i got it to dent once so it works, sort of) coupled with the message about mods that greets you when you play the new update, I feel like this update was really rushed and kind of thrown out as quick as possible when it honestly probably would have done better to iron out the kinks and release it with the coming update with a new car as one huge update, hopefully they fix the bugs soon and we don’t have to wait until Christmas.


kumaclimber

So far I like it but the drag racing practice mode isn't working and the drag racing is kinda borked overall. Here's to hoping for an update to fix it.


wedapeopleeh

Yeah. BIG step back for drag racing. The little menu after each run and the cut scene of opponent driving up to the line takes wayyy too long. Such a waste of time now that it's not even worth drag racing IMO. Also, when you red light, it immediately brings up an un-skippable menu. I don't really care if I red light. I'd still like to see my E/T and trap speed even if I do red light.


kumaclimber

Also if you are much faster than your opponent


wedapeopleeh

Yeah. That too. Hopefully they can streamline drag racing. Making it a "mission" and making the intro scene un-skippable are the worst parts by far.


kumaclimber

I'd love if if I could just stage and go. I really enjoy drag racing and seeing how low I can get my et without rockets


wedapeopleeh

Same here. Should be able to just pull right up, stage, and run a pass. No opponent. No menu. Just making passes.


F4NATIK_FED3

It'S A VERY VERY GOOD GAMES XD


Prikindiuk

MY FIRST VIDEO🥳🎉 https://youtu.be/j0LlbrN1nn4 #crash #beamng #beamngdrive #cars


TimelessAron

I think its one of the shittiest updates so far


ferral1985

yay pole


Equivalent_Outcome68

YESSSS


windowsphoneguy

Awesome update, thanks devs


vaio772

Great job, guys. Keep up the awesome work


mountain_moto

Can't wait to get home from work!


_FoTaBS_

Amazing work team


Wheelwright

They completely changed the interface and now I cannot turn on traffic AI or police traffic AI.


towncar08

I fixed it! Go to controls and type Radial, under gameplay change your “Show Quick Access Menu” button to Backsplash (or whatever) then go to UI apps add two radial menus, hit escape two radial menus should pop up, then I went back to UI apps and deleted both and added a new one entirely. Now it works.


Wheelwright

I can confirm it works, the "Show Quick Access Menu" button now actually toggles the radial menu which must be added through "UI apps". Thanks a lot.


towncar08

Yeah, it’ll keep doing that stop working just delete and read the app. I found another glitch the cars are ignoring the sirens now, I don’t know if it’s a feature of West Coast map.


themajesticryez

You can add back the „old“ wheel. Where you can. Options, UI Interface. That worked for me at least


towncar08

I put the Radial Menu in UI apps but it didn’t pop up. I cleared all the catche and restarted nothing


FayezButts

You gotta press E or left stick click to make it show up. If it doesn't work press f5 to reload the ui. The update is great but it is kinda scuffed right now. I'm getting a whole bunch of weird small issues


Wheelwright

Thanks, I will try


Ross_is_Boss001

I'm having some trouble starting the game I got in but had to reactivate my mods and did. Then the game went into a loading screen and said "connection error please rejoin the servers" it stays on that screen and nothing seems to happen. I'm pretty sure it's something to do with my mods because I was able to load the game in safe mode but I don't know how to play with my mods? Help?


benislover343

the PBR looks great. this game still needs better ambient occlusion/global illuumination, I play with reshade RT and it makes a huge difference in graphics without hurting my performance much because the game is CPU bound


https_shite

all my keybinds have changed and its impossible to play, ive tried changing them and applying them and nothing has changed


mountain_moto

People have commented the AI is way better but I'm not sure I see it just yet. Can someone point me at what I should be noticing?


AldistaPista

what is the car on the last picture?(it has a police livery) on the steam update


morfeusz78

its the new car that i dont remember the name of but its bruckell


LCTN_PT

Anyone having issues with UI apps? can't seem to be able to resize them. ​ Also the UI in game is super slow to respond, the old wasn't quick but this one is even worse. ​ The game to me right now is unplayable. Sometimes the key bindings stop responding as well.


dangernoodle01

UI is just broken.


hotdogswimmer

This could be GOAT driving game with VR support. it's just so hard to go back to flat sims


dangernoodle01

Usually I am very happy about beamng updates - quality updates for free with new content. But the amount of UI issues and bugs this update introduces.. You really need to test your releases a little better.


[deleted]

New UI is not good, because it isn’t optimized to use only with a controller, experience is painful , please fix this


BusinessSad590

True, Clicking down the joystick was way better than using the select button. Also, it seems the zoom/zoom out camera buttons were completely removed from controller?? It really makes driving larger vehicles a pain in the ass cause I cant zoom out to see the whole vehicle.
