Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting

Start with the exact BeamNG version, Overhaul version and active user folder/profile. v2.8.0 targets BeamNG.drive 0.40.3.

Missing Overhaul menu or features

• Download the named release ZIP from Releases.
• Confirm it is enabled in the profile you launched.
• Remove or disable older ZIPs and unpacked copies, then restart the game.
• Open the RLS Career Overhaul entry, rather than assuming a stock career is an Overhaul career.

Missing saves or migration

Check Saves and Migration. Preserve the original save. Do not delete saves or copy individual vehicle/money files as a troubleshooting step.

Phone or controller problems

Check Phone and Controls. Stop the car, close other computer screens and verify the shortcut. Include the device and the screen where focus or Back stops working.

Missing map content, textures or interactions

Check that your map version supports your Overhaul version. Disable other mods in a separate test profile, leaving required maps enabled. Custom level overrides can also change locations; back them up before removing them from a test profile.

If stale resources are suspected, use BeamNG's launcher Support Tools → Clear Cache. Keep saves backed up; do not delete the entire user folder.

Performance or crashes

Record the activity, vehicles, traffic settings and whether the problem gets worse over time. Check with only Overhaul and required map files enabled. A crash, low FPS and a Lua error are different symptoms; include the session log rather than assuming a cause.

Report a bug

Search existing issues first. Add useful details to a matching report when possible.

Include versions, map name and version, new or migrated save, reproduction steps, expected and actual behaviour, screenshots/video and beamng.log from the affected session. Review logs for personal information before sharing. Keep a backup if a save is needed for reproduction.
