@Razuuu I tried many things after that comment. I tried different servers with various success, the closest I got it working was in a server with one dude in Utah but he was a blob. Now after vigorous testing after checking firewall, reinstalling and etc, I kept getting the same issue, and after more digging I found that the client (black terminal) randomly closes the moment I join the game. I read it and no error codes we're present. Is there a way to view log?

you can try launch it with terminal and not with the desktop file. ummm something else. didn't lutris has a log window? Am 2. Februar 2025 um 21:45 schrieb "FilipoDeveloperMan" ***@***.***>:

I will attempt those methods.

Alright so @Razuuu i have some information. I updated and upgraded my system and now im getting a new error. And the old issue is also repeating... I tried reinstalling beamng and beammp but no results. Lutris's log window didnt show any errors. I also expirience the following error from the BeamMP launcher:

After further testing vulkan has no effect, ive given it 64gb of swap ontop of my 16 gb of ram and it still gives me the 80% of memory used warning. I have no idea where this issue stems from but it is consistent.
