📄 Description

First BeamNG.drive note in the knowledge base.

Minecraft Java 26.3 runs next to BeamNG.drive 0.39.4 (Steam, x64); a Lua mod zip in current\mods and a Fabric mod talk over a local WebSocket, and Steve is rendered inside BeamNG as a pooled 7-box TSStatic rig anchored to walk mode - proportions, camera-relative facing, walk stride, held item, hide-while-driving, and the game's own snowman walk avatar replaced via the vehicle hidden field.

The note records the engine facts with file:line pointers (mod-zip loading, hook frame order, raw dispatch, walk mode internals, TSStatic pooling, materials discovery, camera conventions, the MCP test harness) and 13 numbered gotchas - including the hidden-field nil-read quirk and the setMeshAlpha dispatch-order dead end, which each cost real rebuild cycles.

Verified live in both games through BeamNG's built-in MCP server (status probes + screenshots) plus a 166-assertion headless Lua suite; the MC-bound yaw sign and gold-wall check are honestly marked unverified. Example code: examples/minecraft-beamng-passthrough (a follow-up to examples/minecraft-gta5-passthrough).
