I can't paint forest because my "brush" and "meshes" are completely empty. I have the files in the art folder and I can put forest elements individually in object editor. Maybe I have deleted too much files (from the original small island map that i copied and modified). But i don't know what files are the ones i need. Everything that is not forest related works fine.

This may or may not be related to your issue, but I've recently be having a menagerie of issues with the forest editor recently. For one, occasionally the game decides that no forest brushes are available. No rhyme or reason to it, it just randomly breaks. I haven't had it happen to my own map today, but the forest editor is causing the game to crash a lot. Trying to paint forest objects in other maps, not just my own, also will randomly cause the game to hard crash. Put a tree down - boom - BeamNG bug report menu pops up. I've run the gamut of cache clearing, unloading mods, and the like but the game still seems unhappy regardless. (Although, come to think of it I didn't send any error reports that didn't have mods loaded...) Hopefully this crashing is just an issue caused by me using my work computer rather than my normal computer, but I have a suspicion it isn't.
