#RIGS OF RODS MODS SET UP ON WINDOWS 8.1 KEYGEN#

This video absolutely blew up and still to this day is their (BeamNG's) most popular video on their channel, beating "BeamNG - 2019 Tech Showcase" by almost 1 million views.īy using the Wayback Machine, I could see old iterations of the website - and just how far it has come - in early July 2012, I found these two on their FAQ page: To show just how far BeamNG has come in the time, I attempted to create the very first frame of BeamNG's first video 11 years later.(filter used) BeamNG.Drive wasn't just about crashes, it was about handling, modelling suspension and just about everything else inside a car that moved. This'd be titled "Revolutionary soft-body physics in CryEngine3". Thanks to a domain date checker, we can safely assume that the branding was thought of in late 2011.īeamNG standing for "Beam" (the game using Beams and Nodes) and NG standing for Next Generation - either the Next Generation of Rigs Of Rods or the Next Generation of car games as a whole (I will mention that there are rumours of it standing for BeamNode Group - from what I've read this is incorrect).Drive is because.well it's a driving game, you drive.Ģ012 was a massive year for BeamNG.Drive - on 8th May, 2012 - they'd have a sparkling new website (or sparkling for 2012).īy the end of the month, they'd be ready to unveiled their project to the world.a video of a rather dirty (to be) D-Series on a very early rendition of the (to be) Grid Map. Our story begins long, long ago - all the way back in 2005.Ģ005 was when Rigs Of Rods was released, however I can only assume that Rigs Of Rods took a few years to develop.Ħ Years after Rigs Of Rods was released and with rapidly improving technology and potential, the team developing Rigs Of Rods decided to create their own physics engine from scratch - utilising much of what they learnt from developing Rigs Of Rods, leaving their previous physics engine "OGRE" behind.Ĭome the end of the year, they had a name "BeamNG" (or BeamNG.Drive) as well as a website.
