Summertime Shakeup in BeamNG.drive v0.36

[p]Hello, drivers, and welcome to our 0.36 summer update! We're turning up the heat this season with several vehicle refreshes, new missions, and a ton of optimizations.[/p][p][/p][h2]New School Bus and Armored Truck[/h2][p][/p][p]“MD-Series was so much fun to make” we thought, “we should show off its full potential!” So in the spirit of innovation and taking advantage of all the Gavril MD platform has to offer, we've added several fun new options to its lineup.[/p][p]The MD-Series now offers new armored truck and school bus bodies, complete with unique liveries for the armored version - police and bank, as well as prison, off-road, and more for the bus. The bank truck livery also brings several new loads for added realism, while the bus includes various functional gadgets and features.[/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][h2]Ibishu Miramar Refresh[/h2][p][/p][p]The Ibishu Miramar is receiving a long awaited refresh! We know the community has been excited for a Miramar refresh for ages, and it's finally its time to shine![/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p]The Miramar is getting two new body variants, a coupe and an Ute, as well as new facelift body parts. We've added new left-hand-drive interior parts, and a striped livery for the Ute body. All Miramar body variants are also getting rusted or abandoned liveries for all body variants.[/p][p][/p][h2]Burnside Special Refresh[/h2][p][/p][p]Burnside aficionados, rest assured, your beloved Special is also getting a refresh this summer! Coming with several new body variants and liveries, we're glad to finally bring it out of the 50s into 2025.[/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p]We're adding new body variants in the refresh - both two-door sedan and sport coupe formats, the latter also offering a chopped version. The refresh also brings a flathead V8 engine option, a rollcage, Gasser exhausts for both OHC and Flathead V8, an I6 engine with new meshes and textures, and a trunk tank for liquids transportation.[/p][p][/p][p]In the realm of fixes, we've addressed mesh errors on chopped sedan pillars, refreshed the geometry and textures of the engine variants, and upgraded the headlights bezel materials to PBR.[/p][p][/p][h2]Gameplay[/h2][p]Moving on to gameplay, we’ve got a couple of new missions for you![/p][p][/p][p]In the Miramar Menace mission, you'll lead police on a thrilling chase through East Coast, USA in your Miramar Ute as you attempt to evade their clutches. Apparently people have been complaining about your wreckless driving, how rude of them. In the Fragile Asset mission, you'll hop into your police interceptor to chase down a thief in a stolen armored bank truck. Be careful not to wreck the truck - those are expensive! And finally, in Johnson Valley, Outback Bangers has you chasing victory in the wasteland. Glory and bragging rights await![/p][p][/p][p]For more general mission-related improvements, we’ve made changes to the Missions Selection Screen, added a new Replay system for several supported missions types, and added new mission and navigation markers, among other changes.[/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][h2]User Interface Improvements[/h2][p][/p][p]Main menu structure has been overhauled for improved user experience. It's now split into two pages, with the main one dedicated for the new quick-start experiences. The Quick-Start menu provides a convenient shortcut to different gameplay experiences for newcomers and returning players.[/p][p][/p][p]The 5 Freeroam Experiences at the top act like presets, to load the level with some vehicles and settings already in place. The 10 challenges are carefully chosen to be an accessible, but also varied sample of over 500 challenges currently available in BeamNG.[/p][p][/p][p]Radial Menu has also gotten a number of upgrades. You can now make it your own by reconfiguring the layout and available actions. Additional polish includes overall navigation clean up, and several refreshed icons.[/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][p]We’ve also taken this opportunity to make a vast number of fixes, changes, and small improvements that should give all our drivers a better experience in the game overall.  These include launcher changes, bug fixes, UI changes, and much, much more.[/p][p][/p][p]In the background, we're working on more exciting features - you can expect to hear more in the upcoming devblog.[/p][p][/p][p]To see the complete list of changes, check out the patch notes here![/p]

Hotfixes for v0.35 Released

Greetings everyone,

We’ve released several hotfixes to address the reported issues with version 0.35. You can find all the details in the changelogs below:

[hr][/hr]
v0.35.5
(April/10, 2025)

[h2][h2][/h2]Game Engine[/h2]
  • [h2][/h2]Fixed a crash when closing the application
[h2][h2][/h2]Input and Force Feedback[/h2]
  • [h2][/h2]Improved force feedback in several steering wheels by reducing the refresh rate [h2][/h2]In recent releases the Automatic update rate was allowed to use up to 2000Hz, instead of the safer 400Hz that was used in the past. An excessive update rate will be detrimental for some steering wheels, resulting in poor force feedback. This hotfix reverts Automatic back to using 400Hz or lower.
    Note: If you want to experiment with higher rates, you can select them manually as usual, and test the results. We advice that you retest after any update to steering wheel drivers and firmware, or that you switch back to Automatic.

Spring into Action in BeamNG.drive v0.35


Greetings, drivers, and welcome to our first update of 2025!

Version 0.35 shifts into high gear and delivers a long-awaited vehicle remaster, several revamped user interface components, brand-new missions, expanded modding tools lineup, and countless other optimizations, fixes, and quality-of-life improvements.

[h2]REMASTERED VEHICLE: Hirochi Sunburst[/h2]

First up on the vehicle side, we’ve fully remastered the Hirochi Sunburst!

The community has been requesting this one for a while, and we couldn’t be happier to unveil it at last. The makeover comes with a bunch of features, including a Flat-4 drivetrain, a wide variety of both factory and custom configurations, and, finally, that wagon body everyone's been craving for.

The vehicle model has now been revised with increased detail and all-new textures. And to top that off, the lineup also offers a good deal of new customization options, including body kits, interiors, as well as striking new liveries.

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

Beyond the Sunburst's remaster, we’ve also added new parts, configs, and liveries for a number of other vehicles!

The majority of our vehicles also got slight revisions on suspension, as well as fixes and upgrades to materials, textures, and handling.
[h2]3D Mesh Loading Optimizations[/h2]
In this update, we’ve substantially improved vehicle loading speed by transitioning to a new, optimized .cdae file format. Leveraging cached data and compression to streamline the process, it drastically reduces vehicle loading times while also curbing performance hiccups when swapping parts. Please keep in mind that, as always, this is still ongoing work.

[h2]Level Upgrades[/h2]

As part of the ongoing improvements for West Coast map, we're rolling out another set of updated areas. These include the drag strip and the dirt track area, and a brand new drift track. To complement these changes, a round of optimizations was done to collisions in the city area and the overall drivability around race tracks.

But improvements don't stop there, Hirochi Raceway has gotten a new drag strip area and foliage libraries were updated across several maps.

[h2]Gameplay[/h2]

The Freeroam Drift Zones catalog was expanded with new additions that will put your drifting skills to the test – four in Italy, two in Utah, and one in Automation. We’ve also added a Freeroam Drag Mode to Hirochi Raceway.

Drift enthusiasts can now gain better insights into their performance from the newly implemented Drift Statistics, which can be found inside the Drift Challenge end screen. Additionally, two new Drift UI apps were added - one to show the total score, and another to show information about the current drift.

The scoring system has been revamped, and now features Tiers. The more points accumulated - the higher the Tier. A couple of multipliers received a balancing pass and we’ve improved the crash detection logic. Combos now have a soft cap at 10x and a hard cap at 25x.

Two new missions—Strut Brace Loop and Garage Gauntlet—round out the list of gameplay improvements.
[h2]User Interface[/h2]
Meanwhile, the UI team has been hard at work to bring you a new Radial Menu! The new menu was built from the ground up, and will be replacing the legacy one. Tailored for seamless user experience, it comes equipped with full gamepad support and refined layouts.

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

Feel free to share your feedback in the dedicated forum thread, we'd love to hear your thoughts!

[h2]Vehicle Systems[/h2]

As part of the development process for the new rally vehicle variants, we are introducing two long-awaited vehicle systems in v0.35.

Anti-lag system (ALS): in turbocharged applications, lifting the throttle pedal will lead to a loss of turbo pressure, and the engine will take longer to respond to later throttle inputs. To prevent this increase in response time under competitive conditions, turbocharged rally cars often feature an ALS. Our air bypass anti-lag system attempts to maintain a defined target turbocharger RPM utilizing delayed combustion events taking place in exhaust manifold combined with an intake bypass valve to further increase the efficiency and control of the system. Our current ALS simulates an automatic arm/disarm logic - it'll kick in when needed, and it will also disarm automatically when it detects that you're no longer pushing hard.

Active center differential: in all-wheel drive vehicles (such as those in our newly introduced top rally category NGRC1) a traditional, passive, center differential can leave a lot of time on the table. In comparison, an active center differential can raise the performance ceiling, while also improving drivability at the limit. This new system takes into account multiple sensors and parameters from the vehicle, and with the help of internal maps, will instantly and continuously tune the behavior of the differential. This allows the differential to adapt to the driver's requests and to the current car attitude. For example, the rear axle can now automatically disengage when pulling the handbrake, progressively lock the differential to extract grip when necessary, and so on.

[h2]Modding & Tools[/h2]

And last, but certainly not least, we got several exciting changes for the modders among you!

Please welcome our new experimental Building Architect Tool. This procedural tool will be able to generate and modify buildings directly in the World Editor. Head over to this documentation article to learn more.

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

Further updates include several new features for the Biome Tool, a new Roof Crasher Tester prop, changes to the JBeam workflows, and much more.

To see the complete list of changes, check out the patch notes here!

Important update regarding support for Windows 7, 8, 8.1, and Ubuntu 20.04

Dear BeamNG.drive community,

We're committed to continuously improving BeamNG.drive and bringing you the best experience possible. As part of this commitment, we'll soon need to end support for some older operating systems. With BeamNG.drive version 0.35 arriving soon, support for Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1 will be discontinued. This change affects less than 0.06% of our community.

Additionally, with the upcoming BeamNG.drive version 0.36 later this year, we will also discontinue support for Ubuntu 20.04.


What does this mean for you?


If you're already using Windows 10/11 or Ubuntu 22.04 or newer: there’s no action needed. Your experience will continue seamlessly.

If you're on an older operating system: BeamNG.drive may no longer function properly, and we strongly encourage you to upgrade your operating system as soon as possible.


Why is this necessary?


This change is driven by industry-wide decisions and software requirements beyond our control. Microsoft officially ended support for Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1 between 2020 and 2023. Steam similarly ended their support for these versions in January 2024.

Internally, our software relies on a library created by Google, which has also discontinued support for older Windows versions. Similarly, Canonical's end-of-life for Ubuntu 20.04 in May 2025 means we will follow suit shortly afterward.

We hope you understand that taking these steps is necessary for the future of our sim.


[hr][/hr]

[h2] If upgrading to Windows 10 or newer isn't an option for you:[/h2]

You could continue using an older version of BeamNG.drive. However, please note that you'll miss future updates and content, and Customer Support won't be available for outdated versions.

Select 0.34.2_win7_no_updates in the Betas section (alternatively, if eligible, consider requesting a refund from Steam).
