    Hi,

    i made a mod for beamng. i uploaded it to the repository 7 days ago, but it hasnt either been rejected or approved yet.

    is this normal? and if not, is there someone i can contact about this?

    i really put some effort into this one, and i'd like to share it. :)

    We are sorry that nobody has reached out to you about this mod for so long. The issue with it is that it overwrites the game files, which is not allowed on the repository. Doesn't matter that they are unchanged. You need to only include the files that you have modified, and rename them using unique names, so they don't conflict with anything and don't overwrite official content.

    We just haven't had the time to look at it yet. Sorry for the wait, you should be notified when we review it.

    We don't reject a mod for no reason, don't worry. Maybe we can get to your mod today, but no promises, there is a long list to go through.

    Unfortunately the mod still overwrites the file main.materials.json from the Grand Marshal. You can just post an update to it and fix it, no need to upload a separate mod.
