They have the game BeamNG.drive, and they also have something called BeamNG.tech

> BeamNG.tech is an academia- and industry-oriented fork of BeamNG.drive. In content and features, it largely overlaps with BeamNG.drive, and offers additional functionality to support driver training simulators and the development of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS).

> […]

> BeamNG.tech is released under a mix of commercial and open-source licenses by BeamNG GmbH.

But it’s not clear from this page if they provide source code for the commercial parts of BeamNG.tech to customers or not. I guess you’d have to contact them and ask. Contact details are at the above linked page.



Hmm, I wonder how BeamNG can not provide source code, when Rigs of Rods is GPL and BeamNG was forked from it.


> BeamNG was forked from it

Nope. They simply started BeamNG as a commercial project, it was never a fork

And they use Torque which is licensed under MIT https://torque3d.org/ But that’s just the graphics not the physics enginge which haven’t been released. Rigs is using Ogre https://www.ogre3d.org/
