Troubleshooting

1. 1
   Join a server with fewer cars.

   Every car on the server is drawn on your PC: players and traffic. About 25 cars or more needs a graphics card with more than 6 GB of video memory (VRAM).

2. 2
   In BeamNG.drive, open Options, then Graphics, and lower the texture quality.
3. 3
   Close other programs that use the graphics card, like a browser with videos.

Click More info, then Run anyway. Windows shows this for new apps it hasn't seen much yet.

1. 1
   Click Open the Steam page again in HighBeam.
2. 2
   Sign in on Steam's page and wait for it to say you can go back.
3. 3
   Still stuck? Click Copy the link and paste it into your browser.

1. 1
   Open HighBeam's settings (the sliders button, top right).
2. 2
   Under Your BeamNG files, choose the folder BeamNG.drive is installed in.

   On most PCs that's C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\BeamNG.drive.

Big mods and maps take a while the first time. Give it a few minutes. If nothing moves, click Disconnect and join again.

1. 1
   Open HighBeam's settings.
2. 2
   Pick your microphone and your speakers or headphones.
3. 3
   Click Test microphone and talk. The bar should move.
4. 4
   In the game, hold G while you talk.

   Some servers turn voice chat off.

HighBeam turns your own mods off while you're on a server, so everyone has the same game. They come back on when you leave the server.

Check the password with the server's owner. Passwords care about capital letters.

Wait for someone to leave, or pick another server.

Click Restart to update. It takes a few seconds.

HighBeam keeps a log at %APPDATA%\HighBeam\launcher.log. Paste that path into the File Explorer address bar to find it, and send it to whoever helps you.
