Downhill Mayhem for BeamNG.drive

What this mod does

Downhill Mayhem is the big evolution of Spencer Johnson’s downhill maps. Instead of a single slope, it offers several tracks with traps and obstacles running through very different biomes, so you can send cars downhill and see how many survive.

What’s included

• Three main downhill tracks: easy, medium and hard.
• An extreme circuit and shorter, condensed tracks.
• River rapids and jumps over trains.
• Desert, jungle, snow and grassland biomes.
• Working lava, night mode, atmospheric lighting and AI support.

Who it’s for

It’s ideal for destruction, downhill AI races and crash videos. Players describe it as pure fun, with tricky sections and traps that make it hard to reach the end. The author admits that FPS may drop in some areas.

Version notes

Version 1.06, from August 5, 2026, is the fix for 0.39: it adjusts the atmosphere and fixes broken textures. Before that there were patches for 0.36 and 0.37, so the author keeps it up to date with every version. The map was commissioned and made with help from Camodo Gaming. Reviews give it an average of 4.85 out of 5, and nearly all of them give it top marks.
