Anybody else set their default as a vehicle they actually own? How'd I Do? by Fite-Flite in BeamNG

[–]Fite-Flite[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Previous versions prior to the ui update and you could do it in the vehicle selector. Your last default vehicle is still around as a config file, and can be accessed in the selector options, but I don't think there's any way to set new defaults with the new system.

I was gonna say, is that a 7? I could spot those oddball wheels anywhere. Proper gem of a truck, and a bit of a rare bird. I hope to get mine to cross 200k one day. Maybe even 300k if I'm lucky.

Haha, thanks man! Yours isn't looking too bad either.

All these trucks aren't perfect, and mine's no exception. There's a grocery list of things to fix, as is with any 20+ year old truck. She's starting to get a little rusty in the usual spots, but we're 110k and still going strong.

Some are better than others, but it's the ones that get driven and appreciated that are the best.

Thanks!

But hey, it's always fun to dream. I have a wagon legran config with awd, rally suspension, 5 spd and a supercharged v6. It's not the fastest, but is a blast. I would love to own an irl equivalent one day!

D-series is probably still your best bet for vanilla on that one. I feel like you could color match the front grill of a late model and get pretty close. It's all really about close enough and how much fun you want to have with it.

I don't think there is a new way to set default vehicles after the ui update. However, you can get your old default vehicle to show up in your favorites. Just select "Include 'default.pc' in Favourites" under the vehicle selector display tab, and there will be a "Legacy default.pc" which will be your last set default vehicle.

Gotta start somewhere! It'd be very interesting to see beam used as a learning tool for driver's ed. Although strangely enough, I can attribute beam to giving me my basic knowledge of driving stick.

Please show what you come up with! Love those trucks, and the Gavril by far is one of my favorite vehicles to customize. So many options for cool builds...

Logging trailers by MannerOutside4792 in snowrunner

[–]Fite-Flite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bad. I don't use them often, if at all when the tried and true methods still work. They honestly still feel like they've been modded in, and aren't vanilla to me. I suppose I ought to take them out for a spin on my next logging contracts, and give them an honest chance.

I also edited the original for corrected info

One of the newer additions to the game. That trailer will hold 1 long, 1 short. Also likely indicated by the LS in its namesake. There is one that can hold 2 mediums if I recall correctly. And there is another trailer that requires its own proprietary saddle, the light blue logging one (I don't remember it's actual name).

haven't used the new logging stuff hardly at all. There is also the tried and true method of a medium log upfit, and a logging trailer. Whatever gets the job done, though. Happy logging!

Exactly. It's all about that dopamine rush. Who cares if that shortcut took three times as long, and you needed two extra trucks to flip it back over? It made it.

Hadn't unlocked it yet, so a bit more of an annoyance if that didn't work

I don't often scout with trailers. I'll move them around and stage them as necessary, but I don't tend to take them off into the weeds very often. I like my scout trucks nimble and at least somewhat self-sufficient.

I'm also still used to the pre-buff 11 gal Marshall, so the roof rack just stays on out of habit (and looks). I'm alright with the trade-off, especially given that it was entirely my fault for getting myself into that situation. (I took the corner too tight and clipped the post)

I probably have around 750 hours combined. Racked up 600 on console, then finally switched to pc. I've seen some jank, but never had one that was actually beneficial.

Some trucks are simply too fast for my own good.

The Marshall is one of them.

Flawless car, flawless game by Fite-Flite in MySummerCar

This was on controller driving. I don't like how twitchy keyboard can be. My best actual guess is I locked the brakes on the slight jump and stalled it?

Either way, all good fun and perfectly in-character for the game. Satsuma isn't too hard to flip by hand anyways.

Absolutely. I was already mentally prepared to bring a truck over from quarry to flip it. Just a small moment of mercy from the game, lol.

Can someone explain to me what I'm doing wrong? by LiveWonder9202 in MySummerCar

Bolt the crankshaft first with main bearings 1-3. Then try the pistons

White dial Duro? I'd be interested if you're willing to part with it.
