The same open-source engine, two ways to run it: hosted on our GPUs and streamed to your browser, or installed on your own machine.
Record a run and download its data
Record a session with the video, your controls and the engine data on one clock, then watch it or download the data bundle.
Upload and share mods
Add BeamNG maps and vehicles to your cloud library, manage it, and publish a mod to the public repository with a shareable link.
Load maps and vehicles in a session
Use the player's Content panel to add a map or vehicle, install it in the running game, load a level and spawn a vehicle.
Use the player toolbar
The controls at the top of the OpenBeam player: fullscreen, mouse capture, bitrate, Record, Content, Stats, Latency test and Leave, with keyboard shortcuts.
