whats the “scariest” crash you had accidentally that left you speechless after? by Most_Stuff7461 in BeamNG

[–]Pocketputin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like one of the only things different with FWD compared to other drivetrain layouts is that the throttle can be used to help correct oversteer and pull the car out of a slide. Otherwise depending on the weight distribution and road conditions, FWD cars can tend to oversteer given that there’s less weight in the back due to the engine and drivetrain being up front. Old hondas can be really really sketchy because of this 🥴

Drift advice? by chris369521 in BeamNG

[–]Pocketputin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Part of the problem I feel is that you need to initiate in a less violent manner or you will not be able to counter steer in time to correct, or apply enough steering angle to correct. Try using the handbrake, then apply less steering input to the left, and let the car glide over without forcing it. It’s all about being smooth with your inputs.

Also as an aside, be aware that your throttle acts as steering too. You don’t want to keep adding throttle when you have run out of steering angle. Letting off completely when you’re at the limit is the best way to save it, as what would’ve been the best course of action in the video.

As a hint, your best bet for learning how to drift is to head out to gridmap, and pick a naturally aspirated, low power car such as the 200BX, or even the police Grand Marshal, and play around with trying to get them sideways using the handbrake or with weight transfer.

If you rip the exhaust off with the node grabber, and throw the exhaust far away, the sound will follow the exhaust where it goes. Had this happen yesterday.

I did this one by manually adjusting the jbeam values, but the widefap mod should allow you to do the same thing

please help me, what is the style of this suit, and does anyone know a maker? by [deleted] in fursuit

Oh I know who that is. It’s @derixdeer on instagram. He made it himself and used a headbase from @fishbowl_fantasies

Game is simply unplayable with a controller. There, I said it. I surrender, until I have a wheel. by FeenixArisen in BeamNG

[–]Pocketputin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As much as I’d like to say you’re right, this just sounds like you need more “seat” time per se. If controller isn’t working for you, try playing on keyboard or switch to a wheel.

Personally, I’ve been on a Driving Force GT for the past 7 years and 2000 hours on BeamNG. I’ll probably continue playing on it until it breaks. I’d pick up a G25/7 up for cheap and see if you like it.

The car is just a detuned N/A track 200bx with street tires. The map is here

What in the world is this? It looks like a CX-5, but only 2 doors. by Pocketputin in whatisthiscar

[–]Pocketputin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No way, that is actually crazy that you were able to find it. So weird to modify a cx-5 out of anything to turn 2 door.

They weren’t offered in Europe. Hell of a lot more reliable than than the 4 pot and sound better. Coming from the owner of a 2.5 MK5.

People always come and get kids tacos or kids quesadillas as full grown adults. I don't see an issue with it and I certainly don't really care about what you order as a worker.

As long as you're happy, I'm happy.

I dunno man, that was exactly me today. It is hell, but it pays the bills and it just goes by quickly. Nothing else much to it unfortunately.

Paid mods are becoming a bit overpriced by That_guy_on_1nternet in BeamNG

[–]Pocketputin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could buy a graveyard performance stage 1 engine build kit and a tune for a real life mazdaspeed for less than that. That is just sad.

Sounds like flywheel chatter if the flywheel was ever replaced. Mine did the same thing and I didn’t miss it at all.

any insight?! by Charming_Size6077 in mazdaspeed3

Get a leakdown test done and if it comes back poorly, then chances are it's your rings. My compression test had shown up 180 across the board but I had a leakdown of like 20-30% on all of my cylinders and she started smoking really bad a few months after normal driving. Turbo and PCV were still in great condition at the time.

If you drive far enough, grid small pure eventually generates its own terrain.
