How To Play BeamNG Multiplayer With Friends Using BeamMP

Ever since I first picked up Live for Speed back in the day, I've been obsessed with games that offer advance physics, and that's why when I first saw BeamNG back in 2015 I bought it almost instantly. However, one thing I missed about the days of playing LFS was MULTIPLAYER.

But today that has all changed with the introduction of BeamMP.

BeamMP is a mod that allows you to play BeamNG multiplayer with friends. Even if you've never modded a game before, this guide will walk you through everything you need to do so you can be racing, drifting and crashing into your friends within 30 minutes.

Step-by-Step Guide to BeamNG Multiplayer

Here is how you can install the BeamMP mod on your Steam version of BeamNG.

1. Download and Install BeamNG.drive from Steam here.
2. Download and Install the BeamMP Client Mod from here. To install, you can pretty much keep clicking next.
3. On your desktop you should see a BeamMP icon, double click it and then wait for it to launch BeamNG.
4. Once loaded, you will see a new button called multiplayer on the home screen.
5. Now you can either set up an account or play as a guest.
6. The server browser will now load. Look for servers with good ping to ensure a smooth gameplay experience.

How To Start A Private BeamNG Server With Friends

Sometimes playing with randoms can be annoying if you want to set up your own custom races or play with mods. If you want to host your own game, follow these steps:

1. Order a BeamMP server from here.
2. Under Configuration > Startup Parameters, change your server name, add a password and add a AuthKey.
3. Restart your server, and search for your server name in the browser.

Now all that is left to do is to invite your friends by sharing the server details. They can join your server by entering the server name in the multiplayer window.
