High-quality real circuits for BeamNG.drive

<template v-slot:description="">

BeamSetto converts the laser-scanned circuits of Assetto Corsa EVO into BeamNG.drive maps, 1:1, from your own copy of the game: every layout, with its terrain, grass and trees, its grid and pit boxes, and races against BeamNG's AI on EVO's own grid.

<u-page-section title="Two commands, then drive" description="BeamSetto needs the game's content.kspkg extracted into a folder of yours: it doesn't do that part. From there, the conversion takes two commands, each writing the files the next one reads, and you drive." id="how-it-works">
<sector-steps>
<sector-step sector="1" title="Read" to="https://beamsetto.plerion.net/docs/guide/read-tracks">

Read a circuit part by part, in EVO's own terms: meshes, materials, textures, splines, start positions, lights.

```bash
beamsetto evo export game/ laguna_seca --exe AssettoCorsaEVO.exe
```

</sector-step>

<sector-step sector="2" title="Build" to="https://beamsetto.plerion.net/docs/guide/build-levels">

Build one BeamNG mod per circuit with one level per layout, and link it into BeamNG.

```bash
beamsetto beamng build laguna_seca --install
```

</sector-step>

<sector-step sector="3" title="Drive" to="https://beamsetto.plerion.net/docs/guide/drive">

Open Freeroam in BeamNG.drive and pick the layout. Every garage, pit box and grid slot is a spawn point, with a time trial and an AI race on EVO's grid.

</sector-step>
</sector-steps>

<warning>

**The first load is long, and that's normal.** The very first time you load a level, BeamNG prepares its models and textures and keeps them in its cache. Only that first load is slow: from then on, the level loads much faster.

<u-page-section title="Questions">
<accordion>
<accordion-item icon="i-lucide-circle-help" label="What is BeamSetto?">

A free converter that brings Assetto Corsa EVO's tracks to BeamNG.drive. It reads the circuits of your own copy of EVO and converts each one into a BeamNG mod, with a map (a level) for every layout: the laser-scanned track and its kerbs, the terrain around it, grass, trees, buildings and crowds, a spawn point at every garage, pit box and grid slot, a time trial and an AI race. The conversion runs on your computer: nothing is downloaded, and no game data is shared.

</accordion-item>

<accordion-item icon="i-lucide-circle-help" label="Is it finished?">

Not yet. BeamSetto <tool-version>



</tool-version>

 is a beta, under heavy work: expect bugs, and maps that don't look their best yet. Every version brings them closer to EVO. [What isn't converted yet](https://beamsetto.plerion.net/docs/how-it-works/not-yet) lists what's missing, and the [changelog](https://beamsetto.plerion.net/docs/reference/changelog) what each version adds.

</accordion-item>

<accordion-item icon="i-lucide-circle-help" label="Do I need to own Assetto Corsa EVO?">

Yes, and it's worth it. Assetto Corsa EVO is a superb simulator, and the team at Kunos Simulazioni deserve your support: [get it on Steam](https://store.steampowered.com/app/3058630/Assetto_Corsa_EVO/). BeamSetto only works with your own copy: it converts the files of your own installation, and reads its `AssettoCorsaEVO.exe`. It includes nothing from the game, and the levels it builds are for your own use.

</accordion-item>

<accordion-item icon="i-lucide-circle-help" label="How do I get the game's files out of content.kspkg?">

BeamSetto doesn't do it, and the project can't help with it: no code, no instructions, no links. The law forbids providing a way around the technical measures that protect copyrighted content, and the project doesn't take that risk. [The game's files](https://beamsetto.plerion.net/docs/getting-started/game-files) explains why. Getting them out of your own copy is up to you, by your own means, and your responsibility.

</accordion-item>

<accordion-item icon="i-lucide-circle-help" label="Does it cost anything?">

No. BeamSetto is free software under the GNU AGPL v3. You only need the two games.

</accordion-item>

<accordion-item icon="i-lucide-circle-help" label="Which circuits work?">

All of them: the 18 circuits and 39 layouts of Assetto Corsa EVO 0.9.1. BeamSetto has nothing written for a particular circuit. It reads every one from the game's own data, the same way.

</accordion-item>

<accordion-item icon="i-lucide-circle-help" label="What do I need on my computer?">

[uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/), which installs Python for you, or Docker. The game's `content.kspkg` extracted into a folder (about 70 GB; BeamSetto doesn't do that part), and disk space for what the tool writes (a few gigabytes per circuit). And BeamNG.drive to play: version 0.40.5 is tested. The tool is developed on Linux, and finds BeamNG's user folder on Linux and Windows.

</accordion-item>

<accordion-item icon="i-lucide-circle-help" label="Why does a level take so long to load the first time?">

The very first time you load a level, BeamNG prepares its models and textures and keeps them in its cache. That's normal, and it only happens once: from then on, the level loads much faster.

</accordion-item>

<accordion-item icon="i-lucide-circle-help" label="Can I race against the AI?">

Yes. Every layout with a starting grid gets an AI race in BeamNG. Before the start you choose the number of laps, how many opponents line up on EVO's grid, and which BeamNG cars they drive.

</accordion-item>

<accordion-item icon="i-lucide-circle-help" label="Can I share the levels I build?">

No. The levels are made of the game's own models and textures, so they are for your own use only. Anyone else who owns the game can build them with BeamSetto.

</accordion-item>

<accordion-item icon="i-lucide-circle-help" label="Is this an official tool?">

No. BeamSetto is an independent project, not affiliated with Kunos Simulazioni, the makers of Assetto Corsa EVO, or with BeamNG GmbH.
