    Your license plate mods are awesome, I'm glad that you are working on adding more types of them to your license plate packs and updating/reworking of already existed ones as well as fixing issues.
    I have a suggestion for adding support of custom license plates for some car mods, such as:
    Gavril Barstow IV
    Procyon Avior
    Remastered Gavril Bandit
    Cherrier Tango
    2012-2025 Dacia/Renault M0 Platform
    Gavril Dynamo
    Ibishu Signia/BX (if possible)
    This applies to BeNeLux, European Microstates, Mercosur/Mercosul, South Balkan and other license plate packs that require for some plates to use custom instead of US-size and EU-size license plate.
    P.S: I'm also a fan of license plates :D

    I've never seen a more well-timed post, because I was literally just about to post about what I've been up to the last months and announcing my Switzerland + Liechtenstein rework (release tomorrow) haha. Thank you very much, I was planning on updating all my mods now that I have heavily improved all my skills (especially programming) over the last months

    You're welcome. Well done in improving your programming skills. I'm so pleased.
    I can't wait for releasing new license plate packs, especially South Europe. It will give an ability not only to change the combination of letters and numbers, but also region code which vanilla BeamNG's modern Italian plate do not have as well as JorgePinto's modern French plate from his European License Plate compilation mod.
    Thank you very much too for being active on forum :oops:

    Btw I've also implemented a LOT of new features in my Swiss rework, for example it will now automatically generate the canton symbol based on the regional code entered by the user and the font on temporary plates will automatically get smaller if you enter six digits. I've also made it so that it spaces everything out automatically so for less numbers, there's more space between the dot for example and for six digits, the little space between the number blocks will be automatically generated too, but I'll show some pics of it once my screenshotter is done taking pics

    Ah, here's what I wanted to add:
    You are going to make Asian License Plate Pack which will include, I do think, license plates from countries of Central Asia. You have posted in one of the replies that Uzbek license plates will be included in this pack. Will you add plates from other countries, such as Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Kyrgystan and Mongolia? I've seen that htnv planned to add these plates on his own, but I've left a review for his Russian License Plates and there is still no response from mod maker.
    Seems like htnv decided to leave the community :p

    I haven't heard from @htnv the last few months either and neither did his and my friend. Maybe he's just taking a little break or something, but if he's still gone in a year then I might actually make those countries too

    Hello again, I'm giving a list of car mods that also need to add a support for custom license plates:
    Ford S-Max
    Volkswagen Jetta (A5)
    Mercedes-Benz ML-Class
    Mazda Xedos 6
    Suzuki Swift
    These all car mods from Fastlane and Kajto.
    Also I would like to add a support for Porsche 944, but there is a problem: without plate holders it's not possible to install license plates. So it will be difficult to add the support of custom plates. Moreover, plate holders are intended only for US-size license plates.

    African pack will come too within the next months, but first I'll rework Mercosur and (maybe) Benelux

    yes, a Balkan rework is being worked on, but currently I'm trying to finish up my German mod. I planned to make a post about this this evening anyway, but guess I'll do it now. After teaching myself more and more coding, I have decided to start working on my big German mod again and it's coming along really well. I've reworked all the textures and the entire system and currently making a dynamic TÜV generator. The feature for automatic Engschrift has already been reworked. Now, entering the text is much simpler as the format is only XXX XX XXX now without the user needing to add any special characters. I'll show a video this evening when the TÜV textures are ready too. The code to generate them already works, basically the code will get the current month and year and then randomly generate a valid TÜV sticker

    Hi, RealVector.
    I just want to distract you a bit, but rukatsunderi with his Central Europe plates https://www.beamng.com/resources/central-europe-plates.30014/ in the latest update added more types of German license plates. Now he thinks about implementing a function to add Engschrift letters to Mittelschrift license plates so there will be an ability to have Engschrift and Mittelschrift letters together.
    I don't even know now which mod for German plates will be better. BTW, it's nice that you sit on your license plate mods rework.
    I'll wait for announcements

    I know about his mod too and at first I actually talked to him in PM and told him about my project too. Ig he might have now started that bc I had some stuff in between but yeah I'll continue working on my mod because it'd be a shame if an entire year of work would just go to the bin especially now that I have the dynamic TÜV system working and the dynamic generation of custom Kreis stickers too

    OK, I understood.
    Keep on working with your German license plate mod. Really, it isn't a big problem that it's already done by someone else.

    On that topic, I think it's time to finally present the dynamic TÜV system:



    The way the code works is that it takes the current month and year and then randomly generates a legal month/year combination. The texture file for the sticker now consists of three stages: At first it calculates the colour by the selected year, then it puts on the months overlay and lastly it writes the number using the little numbers in the texture file. Before that I just had one texture for every year and month which ofc would have taken up a TON of space. This also means that I can now add the optional feature to even customise it by adding something like // 08.27 at the end of the plate text. The spacing is still off in the video as I haven't yet done the textures for the registration stickers. but the system to dynamically generate them based on the Kreis that you entered is already done, I only need to make the textures

    EDIT: Texture file didn't upload for some reason, here is it
    Here's the texture file if anyone's interested
