Vehicle Info Editor v1.0 for BeamNG.drive

The goal of this project is simple: reduce the amount of time spent jumping between BeamNG, JSON files, spreadsheets, and testing sessions when setting up vehicles for Career Mode.

Vehicle Info Editor adds an in-game editor that allows you to create, edit, and update BeamNG info.json files directly from the UI. Instead of manually editing files and reloading the game to verify changes, most of the workflow can now be handled from a single tool inside BeamNG.

Config Editing

The editor allows you to modify config-specific information including:

• Config name and description

• Body style

• Config type

• Population settings

• Vehicle value

• Default paint assignments

It also supports editing generic vehicle information such as:

• Brand

• Country of origin

• Year range

• Derby class

• Body style

• Marketing slogan

• Vehicle description

Automated Testing & Stat Generation

The editor can automatically run performance tests and write useful data directly back into the config's information file, including:

• Horsepower

• Torque

• Weight

• Weight-to-power ratio

• Top speed

• Acceleration

• Braking performance

• Drivetrain

• Propulsion type

• Fuel type

• Transmission type

• Bounding box dimensions

• Off-road score

For larger projects, a Batch Testing system allows multiple configs to be queued and processed automatically. You can filter for untested vehicles, search through configs, and control how many tests run simultaneously.

Paint & Showroom Tools

The built-in paint editor allows paints to be:

• Created

• Edited

• Deleted

• Assigned as default paints

The mod also includes several workflow shortcuts, including quick access to:

• The Showroom map

• The Autotest map

• The Screenshot Tool

This makes it much easier to generate vehicle images and verify presentation settings while working on a config.

This tool is especially useful for mod authors, Career Mode pack creators, and anyone maintaining a large collection of vehicle configurations that need proper BeamNG metadata.

As always, feedback is welcome. The goal is to continue improving the workflow and make Career Mode content creation faster, easier, and more consistent for everyone.

Transparency note: We are expecting this to be the final beta for the mod with a public free release in the coming month.
