    In further detail, the invisible cars can move and interact with the environment, but they do not make any sort of appearance. I've seen other people using the cars I wish to use in the current version.

    I've tried them in the mods folder, in the vehicles folder under documents, and in the vehicles folder in Steam. Along with those, I've installed them as the direct folder of the car and as the the zip folder. Is there a way to make such vehicles appear? If so, do tell.

    Please reply with constructive, respectful information. If you're laughing at an idea, consider if I would laugh as well; if I wouldn't be laughing at your joke, don't post it.

    Some vehicles, especially older mods and mods coming from a third party site are not compatible with the current build of BeamNG. Theres not much you can do about that. The best you can do is only download from the official BeamNG website, and only download the more modern mods. Some older mods work perfectly, such as mods made by Mythbuster, Dkutch, some of DrowsySam's, and others. Its all about trial and error basically. Remember, you need to unzip the .zip, and place the folder into the vehicles folder under steam

    What mods are you trying to use, and what version are you using?

    Sorry if Im wrong, but if you're using the generic steam download (non experimental) some vehicle mods may be invisible.

    Stable is now up to date with experimental. It was experimental prior to this that had issues, stable just had issues with wheels and anything else using multidae being missing.

    Tried to get the Asea working, but that didn´t help. Now I´m getting an error saying the DAE file cannot be read. Has anyone other ideas fixing this bug?

    It's not a bug. The mod's author has not included the model for the car, only including a temporary cache file that used to work with the game, but no longer does.

    If the car doesn't have a .DAE file then you should forget about the car. Its nearly impossible to convert the .DTS to a .DAE, as for no conversion exists.
    If the car is not showing up for other reasons, then it might be an issue with a file in the car.
