BeamNG 0.30's modding update changes everything for us! 

You OWN this slice of Beam! Thanks for the update from YOUR perspective!

A while ago i was considering to make mods for BeamNg with my own car designs. The simple fact that i had to make all the Jbeam myself with the currently available tools, was quite discouraging to say the least. Taking my own designs in AC was easy enough but Beam looked like a complete nightmare, with this tool things seem to be WAY more approachable. Thanks a lot for making all these tutorial videos, you're one of the very few that does this over pretty much anywhere on the internet. I'm currently working on a geometry nodes generator to make things like tyres, chassis, steering wheels, suspensions, engines and other parts. I initially started working on this to make my own tools to speed up the vehicle design process but with the introduction of this addon by the Beam devs i feel like i should spend more time refining it so that someone else could use it too. Automation is still the best way to make cars for the average user, but an experienced 3D modeler could use some more refined tools inside of blender itself. Keep it up man, i hope this tool will keep getting updated and you keep making videos about your mods, there's a severe lack of creators actually explaining their process in such detail.

Also fun fact about the VR Support:that was already in the game before and it was removed quickly due to big bugs and one of them probably is if you drive to fast,it instantly crash... also love you video bro! Edit:also the launch button for Vulkan has now moved right next to the main launch button which is odd but does that mean that the Vulakn now be stable when new update comes?

Most gamę studios: Modifying our game? Filth! BeamNG chads: lets make modding as easy as possible.

I don't feel it's too conceited to say you had a part in them adding this, I personally believe they probably already had plans for something like this at some point, but I also believe that it's released at this point because of the publicity you've brought to the problem

As soon as I saw this in the update I thought: fillman's gonna love this so much, can't wait for him reaction to this. Well, here it is, and it's better than what I thought! Beamng devs are great.

I actually might try getting into BeamNG modding with this.

This is so crazy to me because how tf were the developers making JBeams in the first place? Seems like a tool like this would just make their work easier anyway. I remember doing this sort of thing back in the day with 1nsane and zmodeler and vhx edit. Crazy to me that a game from 2000 with no official mod support had better tools than beam until now.

you are the reason your videos are such great tutorials, and your great editor helps too

I’m still having to use node beam editor for my triangles and beams RIP although what we have so far is great

“crashing in the game to crashing the game” nearly made me spit my drink out

Nice, I want to see what publishers are gonna do with the new jbeam editor

can you make a really really low poly car mod that has realistic textures so you can use it for traffic?

This is amazing. Also yesterday i played with the vulkan version of bng, it ran PERFECTLY, everything was so much faster and i had no crashes.

It's not called 0.3, the update is 0.30. The developers stated it's not written as if it was a decimal, but instead in numerical order.

Once i saw the modding changes. I knew you would love this update

Fillman bro you sound like your trying not to seem like your tooting your own horn at rhe beginning of the video 😂 dude you 110% did affect the beam ng devs dont let anyone deny that. That's your W man

YES FINALLY BETTER COLISSION MESHES FOR MODS

have you heard about the new beamng blender plugin for editing jbeam files?

Another great vid 🎉👍

this will make a huge difference

Well this is a new thing for fill to mess with for about……. 15 years just having fun. : )

As the guy who most created GTA SA mods in the world, and creating own moddable GTA-like game using Blender + additional modding tool, I'm very interested to check how this will going to work, specially for learning. I'm very happy to see big games supporting modding, part of the reason I stopped modding GTA was TakeTwo stepping on us, they are idiots for not understanding that modding is what makes the game live longer.

10:20 Hey, instead of fiddling with the location, could you not import the J-beam or model of the truck into blender, line the Jato up, then just delete the truck before exporting? You’d be able to actually see where it’s lining up in a 1:1 environment

0:45 Don't worry, we don't prioritize youtubers when adding features, editor was something we had in plans long before you started doing the how not to mod videos. Please don't accreditate yourself to stuff you're not doing :) Also, we don't really do modding tools, we just choose to release some of our internal content creation tools if someone would want to make a mod. Reason why people don't make modding videos is, you either end up absolute hackjobs that barely work and have no quality whats so ever, or you'd have to do multi episode series on something like lets say a new trailer. Short form videos are fine as a way to show how you can quickly slap together fun experiments, make short cars, by cutting the center section in half, making double deckers, swapping suspensions, whatever, but these should never be treated as any form of guide to proper content creation.

I read that part of the patch notes and immediately thought: “Oh Fillman86 is going to love this!”

Was looking forward to this video as soon as I read the patch nodes.

can you add a node or a hitch on the back of the motorhome so we can connect trailers to it?

Remember the J in JBeam stands for Jank.

He knew beamng devs were gonna add the modding mods in 2004

Ha. Told you. I was sure you were gonna like it.

Dude you look good with the beard like this too !

I'm excited to see what cool stuff you'll make with this new revelation to BeamNG modding. Hot Wheels Torpedo car when? :)

Time to start modding again.

i love stuff like this as a player its gonna bring MORE and HIGHER QUALITY mods in the game, which helps modders and players and makes the game 10x better

I don't think it is concieted to say your videos promoted this issue. RU-vid is the prime place for feedback and you being one of the few mod creators that really show the process, it is kinda big for them to watch and understand

There has been a rigs of rods blender plugin for ages, I really don't understand why beam didn't have it

I wonder if I can do steering for my automation car using the new plug-in

you said "us" and i saw the thumbnail and thought i'd be able to make my own cars but uhh...

Can't you just import the pickup model into blender and position it that way?

This woudl be useful to me.. if i knew what i was doing and could get stuff to show up ingame.

I 3d model for a living. And i have no idea what the fuck is going on

Hello fill again

Nice video ! I would like you to explain vulcan a little bit more in a video if possible, (maybe a short part of the next vid) because it seems like a big deal for Beam. :) Keep up the good work !

I bet modland mods will still have the worst jbeams known to man

somone definitely needs to make a mod for portals (utv liftkit) and a snorkel for the aurata

I might be able to continue building the car i wanted

The easier the mods to make the more mods i can cram in and not use

your the man filman! now everything for modding purposes in easy in beamNG Huge W To beamNG GMBH!!1

For placement just import the model you want to work with. Using JATO example - import pickup model, import JATO mesh and nodes, place JATO mesh and nodes where you want them, export them and close. Now you should have your parts in the right place immediately without the whole ordeal of reloading and tweaking.

Oh this is going to lead to so much fun, please include me in the list of people to call and test your crazy things.

meow

hi

I might actually attempt to create something now. :-) Thanks fillman

i a yamaha banshee model i made in blendr for beamng.. and have no clue how to rig it or make the chain spin, wheels turn, suspension work. just wondering how much someone would charge to make the mod workable! and have customisable suspension settings, power/tourque/gearratio tuning similar to a streetbike powercurve

Dang. Watching this video makes me want to download Blender again heh heh! 😅 I have been thinking of making mods for Beam but at some point I felt like it would be very tough (outside of learning how to do it of course). Seeing this new plugin will certainly help with creating mods! I do agree that it might take some learning to get it right but that's ok. 👍

Not the best modder, not the best RU-vidr, but the best modder on RU-vid.

I saw it on the patch notes, I'm so happy that they added this, I'm actually working on a car mod right now for beam, with a fully custom jbeam, and this will make everything a ton easier. Anyways amazing video as always :)

Im probably still gonna use Node Beam Editor for a while lol, it's just so much faster since you can just copy paste sections of jbeam instead of working with the whole file. And it's got sooo much functionality. Anyway I'm expecting at least a 1000% increase in mod quality from you now.

I did this 20 years ago with 1nsane 😊

I can't play beamng any more cus I got logged out of steam

His background colour is the French flag blue white and red

i don't like that it dosent export beams and triangles and this would degeneracy be possible with blender

One thing i now wonder, how hard would ot be ti take a automation car (avoiding the nightmare that is the carout situation), and edit the nodes directly in blender using rhis plug in, and adding onto the paintz how hard would it then be to add on stuff like doors, or is that still alot of work like it would be before?

no need for nodebeam anymore! (maybe)

we making it to the good modders with this one🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯🗣️🗣️🗣️‼️‼️‼️

But i have the impression that the performance has go down.

Will we ever get a popper night time so we can run f1 cras with headlights

Hey guys, do you think he knows theres a new beamng modding tool?

can you create 2jp from sxs blog a 2jz sxs

Beamng devs HIRE THIS GUY

In tge the thumbnail there’s text that says “Bottom Text”, and it’s in the meme font too. Love it.

“Crashing in the game to crashing the game” iconic

Fillman make a 4 door version of the sxs, like just stretch it

yo you have such an amazing voice how did you get it to this stage?

Fillman I’m not sure if you are aware but there is a new jbeam blender add on now 🤣

Why does this man not have more subs

Ay bro it has a blender jbeam editor

Does this mean more videos and awesome mods?

i wish people would add a hummer limo

i dont know why... i never watched any modding stuff but your channel is really enjoying to watch. Looking you since months and never know that so much is possible in BeamNG (playing since 2015) . So Mindblowing

Looking wilder each video.

So the Jbeams do not line of up with with the underlying mesh and vertices of the blender model?

can you make a dashcam mod pls,

if you created a ui mod and the mod isn't showing up in the game menu but shows up in the mod list and don't displays any errors what would you?

this is actually huge !

Can you make a boat car?????????? (this is not a forcing)

ayy another 300 subs 40k coming soon 🙏

"i feel this was brought about a little bit because of me" well you're off on that lmao

LETSSS F’ING GOOOOOOOOOO

How easy would it be though to use the positive/negative coördinates to assign left and right. I imagine that would be quite doable. Future tweak, maybe?

I can just see thousands of people going "This is what Fillman needs, because he yells about it so often. He needs to know!" and all hitting send on the message at exactly the same time. Meanwhile his inbox goes from like 3 to 3246 in the blink of an eye. Minor hitches aside (which might only require a slight workflow adjustment,) this looks like a very happy man.

Make a 4 door aurata

what computer do you have?

this will make it so much easier to mod, also, congrats on 30k!

hello video

upper text

When i make mods through automation its easy but when i see you make mods it makes me want to learn actual beam modding no matter how hard it looks lol. At least i know how to somewhat edit most of the files.

Nice
