Drive real BeamNG.drive cars through a Minecraft world, with BeamNG's soft-body physics and crash damage.
BeamCraft puts your BeamNG.drive cars into Minecraft. BeamNG quietly runs in the background and handles the physics, so every car handles, bounces and crumples just like it does in BeamNG, while you see it and drive it in a Minecraft world.
How it plays
- Start Minecraft. BeamCraft opens a background BeamNG session for you, then drops you into a flat Creative world once it's ready. BeamNG's window steps out of the way, so Minecraft is the only window you play in.
- Press B to pick a car from your own BeamNG garage and spawn it.
- Walk up to it and right-click with an empty hand to get in.
- Drive with W A S D, Space for the handbrake, X / Z to shift up and down, and M to switch between automatic and manual gears. H sounds the horn, N toggles the lights and R resets the car. Shift gets you out.
- Crash into things and watch the bodywork bend, live from BeamNG.
Steering wheels such as the Logitech G29, G920 and G923 also work, including the G923's H-shifter and clutch. Force feedback isn't supported yet.
What you need
- Minecraft: Java Edition 1.21.1 on Windows
- BeamNG.drive 0.39 or 0.40 on Steam, installed on the same PC
Both games run at the same time, so a reasonably strong PC helps. The first start takes a minute or two while BeamNG loads. Save and Quit in Minecraft also closes the background BeamNG session. Your normal BeamNG and Minecraft saves and settings aren't touched: BeamCraft uses its own separate BeamNG profile.
