Early Preview: Career Mode​

The early access career mode is still very much under wraps. However, there have been some changes to the playable version. It is good to see the development team actively changing and monitoring the mode. If you have not heard about the career mode before, check out our guide on how to get started with the early access version.

  • Fixed issue where some part slots could be missing from the part shopping menu in some cases
  • Fixed some issues with garage parking spots where vehicles could be placed in the wrong position


Livery Creator​

A fairly new addition to BeamNG, the livery editor allows players to, as the name suggests, create custom paint jobs for their favourite cars. It has not been without its faults, but the devs are acting upon feedback from the community.

  • Vehicle Livery Creator
    • Fixed texture fill layer projection when using a scale value of less than 1.0
    • Fixed selected material being wrong in some cases (e.g. for the Gavril Roamer – Sheriff variant)
    • Fixed error when trying to open world editor in main menu
    • Fixed error where the tool was referencing a missing shape
    • Fixed the tool writing an empty json file even if no brushes have been created
    • Replaced a nice placeholder skin price with an elite value
    • World Editor tool: Changed the name of the tool in the ‘Windows’ dropdown from Dynamic Decals to Vehicle Livery Creator
    • World Editor tool: Link in news window now refers to the forum thread
    • World Editor tool: Also allow JPG decal textures rather than just PNG files
    • World Editor tool: Fixed the table of contents sorting in the documentation window
The livery editor has a lot of potential to be used within the career mode especially. Creating liveries for haulage fleets of trucks for example, or creating a racing team with matching liveries for the cars and trucks. There is an endless level of possibilities, and once the career mode is finally launched, expect to see it being used extensively.

Holy Moly, the News feeds change quickly:)...almost missed this;)

So much to do in BeamNG and will have to add this to the list as well.....thanks for the information Connor Minniss:thumbsup:

The 'Livery Creator, when working efficiently will be excellent for creating some brand management on the 'Career Mode' delivery vehicles:)

After buying and selling many vehicles in Career Mode, finally found the 'Terrific Trio' of delivery vehicles, so will look forward to creating some brand signage on them:D

Thank you for the photos!!! I've been wanting to try this game, this simulation for a while, and you've been the trigger for me to decide to try it for real! I read that it's playable in VR? Either way, I'm going to try it. Thanks to you!

Have a look at some 'You Tube' creator videos of them using VR, it might give you a heads on how to set up.;)

Thank you for your kind words.:)
