Today we are happy to announce that v0.20 is live! This update brings a number of long-awaited improvements as well as some surprises that we hope you will enjoy. Let’s dive into the details!

Up first we have the final phase of the Gavril Roamer Remaster. The car received a major overhaul to bring it up to the latest quality standards – most textures along with several meshes were completely redone and interiors were renovated. In addition, we are introducing a new facelift version that comes complete with its own set of parts, like wheels, lights, body panels, and more! With Roamer’s renovations complete, we will begin work on these same final improvements for the D-Series and H-Series, expect more news with the later updates.

Major changes were implemented in the vehicle loading system, which significantly reduced loading and re-loading times.

In even more exciting news, this update brings the renovation of Industrial and Port maps. We’ve completely reworked and merged the two classics together. Now an even bigger and densely populated area, it includes new textures, props, and points of interest. For those of you who love a good challenge we are introducing a new unique playground – Containerland, where the fun cannot be contained!

World Editor 2.0 received further improvements along with a new theme, improved selection and preview options, and a polish pass on UI and Camera Path tool.

And lastly, as some of you were quick to figure out from one of our teasers, we are introducing water flow and river physics simulation. The system is still WIP, and the audio component will be released in the coming updates.

We have been receiving an increased number of reports of game loading issues recently. While we are not yet sure of the exact causes of this problem, we identified that it is related to corrupt game settings.

When you try to launch the game either through the Launcher or directly via the .exe file, the game should load normally, but due to this issue, no game window is loaded while BeamNG process is shown in your Task Manager.

With this small update, we are deploying a solution to this problem.

If you still have trouble loading the game after this update, please make sure to Clear Cache and Verify Integrity of Game Files first, and if nothing helps - contact us.

From all of us at BeamNG to all of our awesome community, we wish you continued good health and that you all stay safe.

We are happy to announce the launch of version 0.19 of BeamNG.drive, which contains new vehicles, renovated maps and vehicles as well as continued optimization and improvement of our technology.

Leading the pack in this release is the launch of the Cherrier FCV platform with the Vivace and Tograc models. Cherrier is a new manufacturer in the BeamNG.drive universe. Originating from France, this manufacturer embodies the European spirit of 21st Century automobile design. Aggressive lines, quirky details and a wide range of powerplants are the hallmark of Cherrier’s product line and the FCV platform is the latest expression of their style and engineering philosophy. In keeping with the future of automotive technology, an electric version of the Vivace and Tograc are available, with the FCV platform having been conceived to support both traditional and electric drivetrains from the outset. From economical commuters aimed at the family market to aggressively tuned hot hatchbacks that turn heads and burn rubber in equal measure, Cherrier has a version of its vehicles to appeal to anyone. A strong contender on the competitive driving scene, Cherrier’s chassis are used by several teams in both rally and hillclimb competitions. Cherrier also enjoys a good relationship with France and Italy’s police forces, whose specially tuned versions pursue and contain road-based dirty deeds across the autoroutes and autostradas.

Turning to our maps, we have continued the renovation project and are ready to release Small Island. This map has received a major overhaul to bring its appearance better into line with the stated geographical location. With the rebuilt harbor, research station and helipad we are introducing more points of interest to aim for. The road layouts have been adjusted for better driveability and new offroad trails have been added. Small Island may not be the largest map in the game but it now offers good reasons to go check it out.

In other areas, we have improved the ambient sound systems throughout the game. The directionality of sounds is better, pitch wobbling at high speeds should be noticeably improved and we have reworked the way impacts sound. There has also been some work put into making our sound bank loading logic support future mod banks. Those of you who continue to drive cars into the water in the hope that they will someday function as submarines will be happy to know that we now have underwater sound ambiance. The vehicle team has been hard at work not just on the Cherrier FCV platform vehicles but also a remaster of some of our older vehicles. In this release, we are focusing on Gavril, with remastering taking place on the Roamer, D- and H-Series.

To better guide our development efforts in the future we have implemented an optional game session data collection system. This collects limited game session data on things like which maps players are using, the vehicles they are driving and the additional features they have enabled or disabled. This data is anonymized before any of our employees have access to it and the collection is entirely on an opt-in basis. Those of you who are ok with us collecting this game session data can give us permission to do so in the game settings menu. This permission can be withdrawn at any time. We have also updated our privacy policy to include what data we collect, how to opt in and out of the data collection and how to request the deletion of your data.

Highlights

• Cherrier FCV platform launched with Vivace and Tograc models
  
  
  
  
  
• Small Island renovation with a complete overhaul of the map’s appearance and improved road layout

For the full changelog please visit our Dev Blog.

Today we proudly present our next vehicle, the Cherrier Vivace! This is a 2020 model year compact hatchback, built on a very flexible modern platform, offering vehicles with a wide range of options. FWD and AWD powertrains are available, with gasoline, diesel, or electric power. And of course, there will be lots of parts to combine and play with!

Head on over to our dev blog for more detail on the work involved in getting this newest member of the BeamNG.drive vehicle family into the game.
