    so recently beamng updated again. witch is great! exept that every time they update the game most/all my old levels and cars I already had installed disappear! is there a way to re-install these without having to go through the hassle of re-downloading? any help would be appreciated!

    Check your backup folders in your BeamNG.drive folder:)

    Do not install mods in the game directory. Install them in Documents/BeamNG.Drive/mods (create a folder named 'levels' and another named 'vehicles' and then put your mods in there). That directory won't be touched with updates. The game directory will instead.

    You don't have to create a mod folder, it should be already in Documents / BeamNG.Drive.
    You just have to create the folders 'levels' and 'vehicles' inside if you want to use older mods.
